CHAPTER XXXVIII
When you enter the ruined camp, you will be greeted by a large number of wooden houses of different forms, all of which seem to be separated from each other.
Elder Brown pointed to the cabins, "Well, this is where we stand, these cabins are divided into tribes, and each tribe has built ten cabins of its own, and our Wolf tribe's cabin is over there. ”
As he walked toward the corner of the camp, Red looked around and saw that some of the cabins were clearly occupied, some of them were clearly occupied, some of them were smoking from their roofs, and several of them were covered with flags of different patterns.
Basically, these banners are made of a variety of different animal skins, as are their wolf head banners, and they can be large or small.
Some of them have golden-eyed carvings, some have purple-tailed foxes, and some have black panthers, which are the banners of the Panther tribe, but Red has looked at it and has not found the banner of the Bell tribe, so it seems that they have not yet arrived.
The Wolf tribe lived in the corner of the camp, next to the Panser tribe's house, while the wooden houses on the other side were empty, and they looked much more dilapidated than the wooden houses of the Wolf tribe.
Green counted the number of tribal settlements, and found that there were far more than eighteen, and he was a little puzzled, "Old man, aren't there only eighteen tribes participating in the tribal alliance conference?
Elder Brown didn't care about Green's title, their father and son had always been like this, "Little Bunny Cub, what do you know, there are a total of thirty-two tribe stations here, and when the Tribal Alliance Conference first started, there were thirty-two tribes to participate. ”
"However, after thousands of years of development, some tribes have moved away, and some tribes have been annexed by other powerful tribes after they were weak, so now there are only eighteen tribes left to participate, and you see that those houses that have fallen into disrepair are left behind by the tribes that have disappeared. ”
Opening these wooden houses, which no one had lived in for twenty years, a choking smell of wood rot came to my face, and dust had accumulated a thick layer on the ground.
Red asked Green to raise the wolf's head banner to the highest roof, and he began to clean the room with twenty warriors, and there was a stream next to the camp, the water was clear, even sweet.
They wiped down every room, cleaned the dust, covered the skins they had brought, opened the doors and windows, and let the air circulate, so that people could live there.
There was also some wood in the room, which was supposed to be left over from the previous people, and they could be used to repair the broken spots, and the houses that were taken care of were noticeably more alive than the abandoned ones.
Red saw a familiar face in the ranks of the Panther clan, it was Shet, and judging by his dress, it seemed as if he had been chosen as the new patriarch of the Panther clan.
Shet obviously saw him too, although he didn't dare to look at him, but in the sweeping gaze, Red could see that he was still full of hatred, but Red wouldn't take him to heart, his men were just defeated, and it was not worth mentioning.
Moreover, the rules of the Tribal Alliance Conference do not allow anyone from any tribe to engage in private brawls during the convention, nor to start a tribal war during the convention, otherwise they will be expelled from the alliance and left to fend for themselves.
The day of the convention has not yet arrived, and some tribes have not yet arrived, so the tribes that have arrived are basically only active in their own stations.
Only Elder Brown and Elder Bill went out to visit other tribes' camps and visit old friends.
The Wolf clan not only has sworn enemies like the Panser clan and the Bell clan, but also powerful allies like the Fox clan and the Tiger clan, and even has hundreds of years of friendship.
The most powerful tribe is not only the number of people, the number of warriors, and the scope of control of the tribe itself, but also the support of other tribes and the respect of more tribes.
Two days before the start of the conference, the eighteen tribes of this grassland finally arrived, and eighteen flags were raised over the station, most of which were dominated by animal patterns.
The Bell tribe was almost the last to arrive, still led by their Elder Scott and Bell Patriarch, twenty powerful human-bear warriors and two powerful brown bear war pets, full of momentum.
Shet was the first to visit them with the elders of the Panser tribe, as if to make a relationship, but when he came out of the camp of the Bell tribe, his face was not good-looking, perhaps because he knew about the agreement between the Bell tribe and the Wolf tribe.
Just as Red, Green and the others were watching Shet's jokes, suddenly there was a noisy sound of people and quarrels coming from the side of the camp, and Red and Green hurriedly approached.
In front of a deserted wooden house next to the camp of the Tiger tribe, a group of warriors of the Tiger tribe and their town war pet, a very old saber-toothed tiger was confronting a group of strong warriors.
These sturdy warriors also carried a few war pets, which turned out to be a rare large bison in the grassland, and they also carried a banner in their ranks, on which was also painted a black bison head, and a pair of curved horns stood up to the sky.
As allies of the Tiger Clan, Red and Green hurried over to see if there was anything they could do to help.
Red looked at these strong men and their bull-headed banners, which seemed to be unseen, and the warriors of this tribe seemed to be seeing them for the first time.
Red stopped Wade, the patriarch of the Tiger tribe who wanted to do it, "Patriarch Wade, if you have something to say, don't forget the rules of the conference, and you are not allowed to fight in private." ”
Wade turned his head and saw that it was Red, and hurriedly pointed at the other party angrily and said: "Patriarch Rhett, you came just in time, these wild people who came out of nowhere, they have to say that this deserted camp is theirs, and they drove our war pets out." ”
"If it weren't for the rules of the conference, I would have let the little tiger bite them a long time ago, do you really think that the bison can compete with the saber-toothed tiger?"
When Green heard this, he hurriedly covered his mouth and didn't let himself laugh, Wade's name as the favorite of the town clan turned out to be Xiaohu, and they were obviously all tigers.
Rhett steadied him and took a step forward, "Please also ask your patriarch or the person who leads the team to come out and speak, let's not have unnecessary misunderstandings, I think none of us may know you!"
Out of the crowd on the opposite side was a tall and burly man, also wearing a leather armor and carrying a large axe, and it seemed to be made of meteoric iron, not a common stone axe.
"It's normal that you don't know us, because our Baisen tribe moved away two hundred years ago, but recently we moved back, just in time for this tribal alliance conference, so naturally we want to participate!"
"I am the current patriarch of the Baisen clan, my name is Bull, our ancestors were one of the thirty-two tribes that founded the Alliance, of course we have the right to continue to participate in the Alliance Congress, we want to live back in our camp, why is it wrong?"
The warriors present were all only twenty or thirty years old, and naturally they would not have heard the name of this tribe that had moved away two hundred years ago.
At this time, because a large number of people had gathered here, the elders and witch doctors of various tribes rushed over one after another, fearing that something would happen.
Hearing that these strange warriors were from the Baishan tribe, some of the older elders and witch doctors present had heard of this tribe, and were indeed among the early members of the Alliance.
It was only after an alliance meeting two hundred years ago that their patriarch also disappeared in the altar trial of the god of the forest after winning the first place in the patriarch competition.
