The passage seems to be endless.

Along the way, there were endless things she refused to think about, and there was another one in front of her.

She didn't allow herself to look forward to the finish line or wonder how long they would be here.

All she could do was keep going and wait for the final moment to come.

When Li Xiaojiang, who was walking in front, suddenly froze beside her, she felt the tension almost immediately.

Everyone's pace slowed down.

Her hand froze on Li Xiaojiang's arm, and she looked up vigilantly.

At the mouth of the cave, less than ten meters away, stood several Tu people, who were almost impossible to see under the cover of the low bushes, but the expressions of the people who looked at them were unfathomable.

They were wearing ***, and if that cloth was a cloth, it looked more like some kind of animal skin, heavily armed with bows and arrows, and their long straight black hair was tied into countless small braids at the back of their heads.

They stood still, their black eyes not missing anything before them.

The two sides confronted each other.

Li Xiaojiang carefully removed his hand from the position of the pistol.

It was clearly a group of hunters, all the tips of the arrows coated with poison presumably cyanide, glowing blue in the sun, definitely not something they were trying to provoke.

He tried to communicate in English, not expecting these people to know their language, even English is a fluke mentality, and generally this indigenous people are isolated from the world and have their own language.

Only dead horses can be used as live horse doctors.

As a result, one of the eldest had graying hair, and it seemed that the dignified man actually answered in English.

Not only Li Xiaojiang, but even Gao Yan and the others have relaxed and have language exchanges, which is much easier.

At least it won't cause misunderstanding.

After a few words, they could all see that the group of local natives had relaxed, and their stern features had gradually turned into smiles.

The gray-haired man said something, clapped his hands a few times, and they all laughed.

Li Xiaojiang also let out a low chuckle.

Gao Yan couldn't understand their broken pronunciation, and he wasn't quite used to this kind of English with a strong native accent.

"What did they say?" She asked.

"Oh, nothing. They said they had been waiting for us for a long time. ”

There was no more word that made her more suspicious or curious. "Waiting for us for a long time? You'd better tell me what's going on? ”

"They said someone told them that someone would come and exchange the kay with them, for what they needed." Li Xiaojiang pointed to the bags in the hands of those Turks.

"Who? What to exchange? ”

It's so strange that they are here and are actually waiting for them, and someone has left a message.

"Are you stupid? It must be your colleague, think for yourself, they didn't touch the ore in the shrine outside, but this is a secret passage, and there are people waiting for us at the end, you take a closer look at what they have in their hands. Li Xiaojiang smiled and whispered to her.

"They are the Ormar people here, who have lived in this place for hundreds of years."

introduced the other party's group of Tu tribes, and smiled at each other.

The Ormar people began to laugh again, and rejoiced with them in a friendly manner.

"What should we do?" Gao Yan exclaimed, curious but a little panicked.

She could already see that the bags made of bark in the hands of the Ormar were black ore, what they had been looking for.

Li Xiaojiang smiled and talked to the other party, and Gao Yan realized that what the other party wanted to exchange was actually salt and candy, which they did not refine here, and it was an expensive product and necessity for them.

There are also medicines.

Because of these words, everyone relaxed.

The leader of the Ormar people, the gray-haired man he had just had, had invited them to be a guest of their tribe.

So they came together to the camp of the Ormars, surrounded by these people.

Li Xiaojiang observed the terrain and found that from the entrance, this place is almost a natural barrier, and the dense jungle has nine twists and eighteen bends, which does not seem to be natural, but more like the dense forest here has been specially modified by artificiality, and it has become the current state for many years after tomorrow.

With no one to lead, it's easy to get lost here, to find your way at all.

Come to their camp.

It was a communal house where the whole family lived.

It is a large, circular thatched building that blends in with the surrounding mountains and forests, and is impossible to detect even by airplanes.

Li Xiaojiang found that the number of their group was quite small, only about fifty people, but the number of such primitive tribes rarely exceeded two hundred.

Presumably due to the fact that the people here maintained a primitive way of life, plagued by food and disease, the people here had a high mortality rate.

Their arrival got all the residents pouring out to greet them as these guests.

The brown-skinned children giggled shyly, and the women deftly separated the children from their strangers.

Li Xiaojiang looked around and observed everything.

This tribe they do not understand.

He didn't want them to be part of the cannibal tribe.

There are many primitive tribes who have this bad habit.

They ranged in age from a shriveled, toothless old patriarch to muscular young men and women.

The women here are all full-bodied, and in fact, none of the people here are wearing anything like a blouse.

The men wore a loincloth that was knotted in the back of the hips, while the women wore tight skirts with many cords, and the hips were almost naked.

Let their eyes only avoid the sensitive parts of others.

Although there was no communication, the others obviously didn't even know broken English, and they all relied on sign language to communicate with each other, but they were completely chicken and duck talking.

Fortunately, it was time for dinner, and several women were preparing dinner, and they were warmly invited to sit down with some unrecognizable plants and fruits, as well as fish and unrecognizable meat.

There were already small children running up to them, watching them in amazement.

Gao Yan couldn't see Li Xiaojiang, and Li Xiaojiang didn't know where to go with those men.

When dinner was ready, Li Xiaojiang and those people reappeared, and they seemed to be satisfied.

Xiao Wu behind Li Xiaojiang was carrying a bag in his hand, and he seemed to be fully loaded.

Gao Yan wanted to stand up.

Li Xiaojiang sat down according to her, and the bag rested beside her, "Don't worry, this is only a part, I heard the patriarch say that these ores were brought back from another distant cemetery, because this kind of stone is the best thing for them to repel insects and mosquitoes, and it can sparkle at night, do you think these are enough?" ”

Their task is these stones.

Now that the task has been completed, Li Xiaojiang has to think about leaving.

Gao Yan opened the bag, and the stone inside was indeed the same as the stone she saw, and it seemed that the source of the ore was here.

"That's enough, that's enough to extract the elements we need."

Gao Yan hesitated for a moment and looked at the Ormars. 2k reading web
