Chapter Seventy-Five: World Affairs
There are two things that I need to clarify;
One is what is the origin of this hunting clan, Hu Ya has previously told me that the hook is the only bloodline of the hunting clan, which in my understanding is that she is the only one left when everyone is dead, but now it seems that the situation is far from so simple;
In addition, what I need to figure out is why the Sichuan girl let this group of old, weak, sick and pregnant people land on the island and burn the boat? Obviously, this should not be something she can do, she is so docile and virtuous, you must know that burning their ship is equivalent to cutting off the back road of these two tribes;
If you look at it in combination with her later practice of spreading grain and rice and relocating displaced people, it is obvious that the Sichuan girl's request for the two tribes to burn the boat was intentional, but she knew that hundreds of women and dozens of men would not help me much.......
"What about the hunters and their sorcerers? How come I haven't seen his people? I collected my thoughts and asked Qi Wu;
Who knew that the two old women who were already bitter after hearing the words looked at me and I looked at you, and each other's faces were a little embarrassed;
"Shanman may not know much about the past of the four islands of Dali, the hunters have never had witches, they claim to be the descendants of Li Zu, and the holy daughter of the hunting tribe has the blood of Li Zu on her body, but this saint was taken away by the evil spirits a long time ago, and she has never gone back since";
Qiwu's native language is very slow, but there are many words that I have not been exposed to before, and I lowered my head and thought about the meaning of these words for a long time before I roughly understood, and at this time my head was full of the tragic situation of the hook before he died;
"What is Da Li?" , I frowned and asked again, who knew that as soon as I blurted out the words, the two old women who were already kneeling on the ground actually leaned down again;
"Da Li is also our ancestor, we will call Li Zu, but we can't call Da Li", Qi Wu said with his head bowed tremblingly;
"You go on", I didn't mean to interrupt her, just nodded;
The old witch babbled for half an hour in her native language, which I didn't seem to understand, and I could only make out a rough idea;
According to her, the eight tribes were actually a family a long time ago (she could not say how long) they lived on a single land, but I really couldn't tell the difference between the words land and big island in the Turkish language;
After that, this huge tribe fell apart into four small tribes, and the four small tribes were divided into eight by the rebellion of the evil spirits. In other words, this split should be a matter of their recent generations;
And now the people who have defected, including the Qi tribe and the hunting tribe, are all the original bloodlines of the Dali tribe, plus the demon tribe that I originally absorbed, in fact, they have already obtained three-quarters of the Dali tribe, and those who have taken refuge in the rebel tribe of the evil spirits, the poison department is already in front of my eyes, as for the Huya tribe... For the sake of Huya, I will also force her to do this!
As for the rest... Love whoever you want, one is that Lao Tzu doesn't have so much food to feed so many people, even if he taught them to cultivate and farm, but my desert island is full of reclaimable places that are so big in the palm of the hand, to the south is the strange belt where I just died and lived, to the west is the death forest where wild beasts can't get out, the north is the vast sea, and the westernmost part of the island is vast, but there are either woods where black dragons are entrenched, or murderous swamps, even if these four hundred people are now, I feel that the territory is stretched;
What's more, there are still thirty people trapped in that place where I don't want to set foot a second time, waiting for me to come to the rescue;
Every time I think of them, my ears are like a mosquito flying into both ear sockets, and my whole head buzzes;
I kept rubbing my temples with both hands, and I chatted with these two old women for a full hour, but I still didn't catch a single hair!
"Where are the hunters now?" , my tone was a little helpless;
"They were taken away by a child, also at the request of the female chief when they had just landed on the island";
I thought in my heart that Chuan's arrangement was probably related to the hook's life experience, but she let the hunters follow the fish balls to the west bank, which made me secretly sweat against the hunters, of course, I was not worried that the beasts or python forests on the west bank would threaten them, after all, the hook's skills before his death had left a deep impression on my mind;
What will really threaten them is the black bear child fish ball, she is an extremely dangerous existence, although the cat beast is left to the Sichuan girl to defend herself, but the evil spirit crow in the sky is not easy to provoke, if the hunter clan which clumsy and fierce guy touched her brow...
Remember? On the night when the white-robed people fought for their lives, a few things that didn't know whether they were alive or dead killed a few birds in the forest for their stomachs, and that night they were pecked off the cliff by countless evil spirit crows and fell to death, and the tragic scene is still vivid.
More and more questions were pointed at one person, a woman I trusted so much, Sister Chuan, and perhaps only she could answer my many doubts;
"Qiwu, I have one more thing to ask you, when you and I first met this morning, I was covered with filth and followed behind the Yellow Cliff Girl to cover my tracks, but you bent down to salute me, why?";
The old witch of the Qi tribe sat up straight when she heard this, and after a long time of relaxation, she said: "Because you are like a very person";
"What man?";
"I don't know who he is, but my Qi clan has been guarding him for generations";
Just when I was full of suspicion that this witch was playing something with me again, the old fox was playing with me, but she held up a carved wooden box from behind her, which I didn't even notice before she entered the oracle, but when she opened the wooden box, it was already doomed to the fate of the Qi tribe to be left behind;
It was a mask, which was not surprising, for there were many kinds of masks for the natives, whether they were wooden or leather, and they would greet their faces for the attention of the opposite sex or the fear of their enemies;
Strange enough, the old man carefully took out of the wooden box, but it was a metal mask, a polished all-metal skin, I didn't even have to make it carefully, but only a glance at it showed that the shape of the mask was indeed very similar to my face, even the back of my cheekbones, a scar I had left since childhood, was deeply embedded in this mask;
My eyes kept flickering over the mask and Qiwu's face, "Where did you get this thing?" Dare to lie to me for a word, I will let you not get out of this oracle today";
"This is the Li Zu holy relic that the Qi clan has guarded for generations, and since I followed the previous shaman, I know that even if I lose my life, I can't lose this holy relic," Qi Wu said with a mask in his hand;
Before I could ask again, the old thing from the Poison Department who had been silent beside Qi Wu stared at the mask and suddenly exclaimed: "The Li Zu holy relic is actually here, and what the demon man stole was..."
"What you handed over at the beginning was just an imitation I made, and each generation of Qiwu will make a new imitation, in case people like you are worried";
"Why, you know about smelting and molding?" , I suddenly broke the two old things' words, stood up and asked Qi Wu urgently;
