CH.196 Sain haha
Tonk stood on a towering tree trunk, hidden behind a thick foliage, and a bird's nest on a branch overhead, in which a few hungry birds chirped. In front of him was a huge cottage with a mountain atmosphere. On the ground is a continuous cluster of wooden buildings, all of which are circular, with long grass roofs, wisps of cooking smoke rising from the cottages, captive livestock leisurely eating fodder, dark-skinned children running around, and shirtless women walking slowly with huge clay pots on their heads. In addition to the above-ground buildings, between the trunks of the trees, the natives also erected a continuous series of houses, which were connected by bridges, and although they were connected in all directions, they looked like a labyrinth.
The five natives had fled back to the cottage, and their return attracted onlookers from their fellow tribesmen, several of whom told each other about their ordeal, and the other natives sighed when they heard it.
Tang Ke watched for a while, judging from the scale of this cottage, the number of indigenous people is at least more than 10,000, and this is only the number of people in this place, and maybe there are other cottages. His mood suddenly fell to the bottom, and he smashed the tree next to him with hatred, and a few pieces of mottled bark rustled down. If they are enemies of the tens of thousands of natives here, the dragon pirate group will not be able to get any benefits at all, so they can only give up Dragon's Lair Island. If you can't gain a foothold on this island, you can only sell the island's shipping routes to others in exchange for a small profit, but there is no other way.
The five natives were hugged into the depths of the cottage, and in the crowd, it was impossible to tell who was who.
Donk froze helplessly for a moment, and with the idea of leaving, he turned around and leaped to another tree, facing the camp on the shore. His figure was as vigorous as that of an ape, and the seemingly impassable distances were conquered by him, and he leaped from tree to tree, and the huge cottage slowly disappeared behind him. He hadn't gone far before he stepped on a thin line as he landed on a thick tree trunk, which he felt a little awkward to the touch, and then a jingling bell sounded around him, sounding like some kind of alarm. His face sank and he increased his speed.
The thin threads were wrapped around bells at both ends, and there were other thin threads connected to them, and the whole body was moved, and hundreds of bells around them rang with it, alarming the surrounding indigenous soldiers at once. The natives survive under the watchful eye of fierce beasts, and they pay great attention to defense, and at the slightest movement, they will send hundreds of elite soldiers to guard. One of the patrolmen, hiding in the woods, caught a glimpse of a dark shadow passing through the trees, shouted at it, and threw their guns.
The shadow was none other than Donk, who jumped higher into the trees to avoid his pursuers, but stepped on the trap. A net hidden in the vines suddenly shot out, covering Tang Ke in the middle and hanging him from the bottom up. Tang Ke was still calm at this time, struggled in the net pocket a few times, and then pulled out the short sword at his waist, and with one sword, he cut a hole and came out of it.
The native soldiers screamed and continued to attack the high Tonk, but the distance was so far that the spears fell in mid-air, stuck in the trees or submerged in the grass. They shouted and reported the location of Donk, and the large army in the cottage rushed straight forward, and some of them were riding wild beasts endemic to the island, and they were menacing.
Donk fell, stabbed the trunk of the tree with his sword in mid-air, relieved the fall, and returned to the tree, continuing to escape. He thought in his heart that if he returned the same way, he would inevitably encounter that dangerous group of stone pillars again, so it was better to change direction slightly and go around.
There were fifteen natives at the front, and they were all the strongest men in the tribe, all as agile as leopards. In addition to this group of people, there were hundreds of follow-up people who were coming at a rapid pace, and those riding wild beasts were even faster.
In this way, Donk started a jungle chase with the natives, and he responded to the bold words of the artist, even if he was pursued by hundreds of people, he still did not mess up at all. He has an amazing instantaneous explosiveness, and his speed is far faster than that of the natives. However, the natives are very familiar with the ground under their feet and can run without hindrance, which makes up for the disadvantage of being slightly slower. When Donk jumped onto a big tree, a figure suddenly appeared from the opposite tree, and threw a cold star at him, obviously some kind of sharp weapon, he had not yet stood firm, and fell down when he bent down to dodge, he rolled in mid-air, unloaded part of the gravity, and landed firmly on the ground, instead running wildly on the ground, so that the speed was much faster.
Donk ran for a while, and found that he hadn't shaken off the natives' oooh oh oh screams, and the distance didn't seem to be widened, and what made him even more concerned was that there was some noise ahead, and it was likely that there was another team of people guarding the front. He completely dispelled his contempt for the natives, and used all his strength to rush forward as fast as he could. His ears were full of heat and he flattened all the miscellaneous blades of grass and dodged stones and other obstacles by jumping. As he ran, his vision blurred and he failed to notice a strange tree in front of him, and as soon as he stepped into the territory of the strange tree, the roots of the tree suddenly seemed to come alive, and his ankles were clung to him.
"What the hell!" Donk tripped and fell to the ground, staring back at his feet.
The roots of the strange tree poured out like a swarm of black pythons, entangling Tangk up and down.
Donk raised his arms and struggled with the strange tree, but it turned out to be evenly matched, he tightened one of the roots, but the other roots took the opportunity to entangle. He hurriedly reached out to draw his short sword, trying to cut off the roots, but as soon as his hand was halfway out, the whole person was lifted into the air by the roots, and the troll's iron statue at his waist fell to the ground, making him less of this big dependence.
The strange tree opened a large mouth, which was in the center of its trunk, large enough to hold three tinks without crowding, and it was filled with green liquids that were bubbling and releasing a pungent smell of acid.
Telling himself to be calm, Donk struggled in mid-air to break free from the roots of the tree and successfully pulled out his dagger, he summoned his sword aura and cut off one of the roots, and to his disgust, a stream of shiny slime came out of the roots.
The whole tree was trembling violently, as if it was in pain from the broken roots. It began to fight back angrily, and more roots scurried out of the soil, some as thick as an arm.
Tang Ke felt the roots of the tree on his body tense, his internal organs were about to be crushed, and the sharp pain erupted from the inside of his body, and the pain made the green tendons on his forehead burst out. He said in his heart that he must not die at the hands of a tree, and used his short sword to frantically chop the roots of the tree, and at the same time he said something in his mouth, and there was a crackling sound in the palm of his left hand, and a black ball of fire rose, and there was a hideous grimace in the heart of the flame. He saw the moment and threw the fireball into the strange tree's mouth.
After the black fire entered, it exploded mercilessly, and the strange tree trembled in pain, and closed its big mouth, and black smoke came out of the gap in the mouth, and the sour taste also changed.
Tang Ke felt the entanglement of the roots loosen a little, hurriedly took a deep breath, and reached out to take out another sword, and opened the bow from side to side with both hands, cutting off the roots one after another.
The strange tree learned to behave and began to keep its mouth shut, but more roots and branches stretched out.
Tang Ke suffered from being bound by his body, unable to perform sword skills, and could not cut off all the entanglements in a short period of time with ordinary slashes alone. He was in a stalemate with the strange tree for a long time, and only then did he cut off most of the roots of the strange tree and take the opportunity to get rid of the restraints. After his feet landed again, he rushed straight to the trunk of the tree, and slashed at the same time with his sword in both hands, and the sword qi erupted, cutting the strange tree into two parts, and the foul-smelling green liquid spilled all over the ground. Donk jumped back, panting from exhaustion, and hurriedly picked up the trolls on the ground, and wiped a handful of hot sweat when he got up. But before he could relax, he heard a noisy footstep behind him, and as soon as he turned around, at least hundreds of natives chased after him!
The natives each held their weapons and spread out in a fan-like manner, with threatening roars coming out of their mouths.
Tang Ke felt a chill in his heart, he had been running for so long, plus dealing with this strange tree, he had already consumed a lot of physical strength, it was impossible to defeat hundreds of natives again, even if he added a troll, there was no chance of victory. He smiled bitterly, in fact, Mo said that he defeated this group of natives, even if he escaped, his legs would be a little weak. Ever since he became a pirate, his hands had been stained with blood, and he had long been accustomed to seeing life and death, even if he was in a desperate situation right now, he was not frightened.
"Sain haha! Sain haha! One of the natives who had been spared by Donk shouted at the head of the group, pointing to the strange tree that had been broken in two, and then pointing at Donk, shouting the words. I don't know what this means, but when the natives heard it, their hostility decreased slightly, and their pace slowed down.
Tang Ke had an idea, the natives have always been ignorant, if you play some tricks, I don't know if you can fool the natives? Deciding to take a risk, he unleashed a black fireball at the slowly approaching natives, which he held in his grip, but instead of throwing it out immediately, he held it for a while.
When the natives saw the fireball, they showed stunned expressions, some screamed, and some dropped their weapons and knelt on the ground to worship, and the situation suddenly reversed 180 degrees.
Tang Ke was overjoyed in his heart, and tried his best to stabilize the fireball, until the little mana in his body was exhausted, and then let the fireball extinguish on its own. He observed the reaction of the natives, thinking about whether to go or stay, and he found that most of the natives were frightened, and some of the natives were still shouting the phrase "Sain haha".
Finally, a native stepped up to break the deadlock, and he came to Donk empty-handed, got down on one knee, and shouted with his arms outstretched.
Tang Ke was a man who dared to gamble, and when he saw this, his heart was crossed, and he strode towards the natives' cottage, and the natives immediately followed, not only did not attack, but continued to chant "Sain haha". Although Donk didn't understand the meaning of this sentence, he guessed that it should be a good word, he planned to try his luck, anyway, it was impossible to get out at the moment, so he went to the indigenous cottage to break in.
