Chapter 472: Tribal Past
"It's less than fifty. Among them, there are more than a dozen people, who have relatively serious injuries and may die soon. In this way, there are only more than 30 people who can continue to develop and continue. The old man's voice was low, and it was clear that he was in a bad mood. "It's really chilling that the Vein Guardian Tribe was handed over to me and that such a catastrophe had been suffered. ”
After listening to this, Dong Yi sighed again, "Actually, we are almost the same. By the way, I don't know what to call the patriarch?"
The old man smiled bitterly, "In Xia Du Zhong." Qing'er is my daughter. In addition, you don't need to call me any patriarch, now the Vein Guardian tribe is basically no longer a clan. ”
Dong Yi shook his head, "I didn't expect that we would all encounter such a thing." Before, we went to the island in the middle of the lake and found that the barrier above had been broken, the rebirth platform inside had been destroyed, and the spirit stone under the rebirth platform had also been taken away. Therefore, it is definitely not an accident that the spiritual pagoda and spiritual stone we are guarding have problems one after another. ”
Du Zhong looked incredulous, and said in a trembling voice, "Island in the middle of the lake...... It was actually destroyed?" But soon, he calmed down again, "Well, of course, it's not an accident that something like this happened to the Five Elements Tribe. That person probably came for the spirit stone under the stage of the deceased. I was going to send someone to your forest guardian tribe to take a look, but there really wasn't anyone who could send them. ”
Dong Yi said, "Maybe if you read it, it will only be more sad." By the way, the two guards outside were sent out by you, but why don't they know Qing'er?"
Du Zhongdao, "Those two people are from the tribe. ”
"Build a tribe?" Dong Yi was puzzled, "Why are they here?"
Du Zhongdao, "Speaking of which, it's also a coincidence. The construction of the tribe also suffered accidents. But since they had not settled, they suffered the least damage, and there were one hundred and thirty men left. It's just that their patriarch died in battle. His son fled with others, but he still lived a wandering life. ”
"Half a year ago, they came to us. At first we thought they were enemies, and we confronted each other for a while. Later, I learned that they were also from the Five Elements Tribe. In order to be able to resist the subsequent twists and turns, we decided to merge and unite with the outside world. Now, they also live with us. ”
At this point, several people had already arrived at their reception room. There was a young man there, probably in his thirties, with a sense of maturity on his face that did not match his age. Du Zhong said, "He is the one who built the tribe. After they came, on the one hand, they were helping us to repair, and on the other hand, they also took the initiative to take on the task of vigilance. ”
The three tribes have come together in this way, and if it were not for the previous calamity, it would have been a gratifying thing. It's just that the current people are not happy at all.
In particular, Du Zhong revealed that after the Water Spirit Pagoda rose and the water mist was filled, covering the island in the middle of the lake, they once went to the floating water tribe and found that the floating water tribe had been slaughtered by people, and there may not be any living mouth.
Dong Yi was puzzled, "I also tried to find the floating water tribe, but why didn't I find that island?"
"That's not an island. They are underwater. Saying that it is an island is just a cover-up. But I didn't expect that such a good concealment method was also discovered. ”
Dong Yi said, "Then, now only the cold tribe is left." I don't know how they're doing. ”
Du Zhong smiled bitterly again, "Do you think they can be normal? If they are normal, the Death Platform will not be destroyed." Unless ......"
He frowned suddenly, "Unless, they did it." ”
When he said this, everyone's hearts trembled slightly.
Dong Yi is extremely cautious now, "Patriarch Du, the stakes are very high, we can't jump to conclusions. ”
Du Zhong himself nodded, "Actually, I didn't doubt them, I just made an assumption." I always believe that there will be no betrayal in our Five Elements Tribe. It's just that they are so far away that none of us can confirm them. ”
"I'll go. Ding Qin suddenly happened, "I decided, I will go to the cold tribe." ”
"You?" Du Zhong looked at Ding Qin with more suspicion in his eyes, "What are you doing there?" By the way, I haven't asked yet, where did you come from, how did you meet Qing'er?"
Qing'er interjected on the side at this time, "Dad, don't worry, he is a good person." He has lost his memory and wants to come to the Stone of the Past to recover his memory. I met by the lake of intoxication. ”
Ding Qin saluted Du Zhong and said, "That's right, it's roughly as Qing'er said." Patriarch, in fact, there are too many doubts in your matter, and it is also appropriate to go to the cold tribe. ”
Du Zhong didn't act too friendly at this time, "Hmm. The old man thanked you for sending the little girl back. It's just that the affairs of the Five Elements Tribe are our internal affairs, and outsiders are still not good at interfering. ”
When he said this, Ding Qin could understand. After experiencing such a calamity, anyone will become more sensitive and cautious, and they will not be willing to accept outsiders.
Qing'er still wanted to help Ding Qin say something, but Du Zhong waved his hand, "Qing'er, you don't need to say more." Don't worry, your friend, I'm here to entertain. However, after they have rested here, let's leave. ”
Ding Qin thought for a moment and stepped forward and said, "Patriarch." I'll say a few more words. It is possible that the patriarch did not see the inscription on the death platform. The Death Bench is designed to trap some kind of life-threatening spirit stone. The reason why there is a strong enchantment on the island in the middle of the lake, and at the same time, the five elements tribes of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth respectively guard the key five elements spirit stones to ensure the safety of the enchantment, is to prevent this spirit stone from falling into the hands of the gangsters. But now, it's been taken. ”
"I admit that the affairs of the Five Elements Tribe are your internal affairs, and I have no right to interfere. But now, the matter of the Death Platform and the Spirit Stone has already involved the people of the world. I think that as any person with a conscience, you should do your part. ”
Ding Qin said this, in fact, he didn't want to argue with him about anything, but if he really went to the Yuhan tribe, many details of the whole incident must be clarified.
Without waiting for Du Zhong to speak, Dong Yi also spoke, "Actually, I think what Little Brother Ding Qin said is also reasonable." Besides, taking a step back, as you just said, what if it was really the Cold Tribe who did it?"
Du Zhong didn't say a word, stood up and paced back and forth. The son of the patriarch of the tribe on the side looked at Ding Qin carefully several times, and actually said, "I don't think this brother is a bad person, he should be kind." Now, none of us have the ability to go to the Frosty Tribe, and if he does make a trip, it may not be a bad thing. ”
It took a long time for Du Zhong to make up his mind, "Well, since everyone thinks so, then you can go if you want." However, you just said this to learn more about the Warm Tribe from us. ”
Ding Qin nodded, "That's right." It's not just the cold tribe, it's what you've been through. In addition, now that the barrier of the island in the middle of the lake has been broken and the things you are guarding have been lost, I hope to know a thing or two about the secrets of the Five Elements Tribe. In this way, in the cold tribe, if I encounter any more situations, I can solve it. ”
Du Zhong smiled helplessly, "I knew that you thought so." However, to tell you something, our three tribes still have to discuss. So, we'll talk about it tomorrow morning. ”
"Good. Ding Qin saluted Du Zhong, "Thank you, patriarch." In addition, tonight, my team is stationed nearby, and it was supposed to send out a sentry, if the patriarch can be trusted, you can let your sentry rest. ”
Ding Qin also knew how Du Zhong could be withdrawn. When he said this, he was just polite.
Sure enough, Du Zhongdao, "Our post is only responsible for entering and exiting the road, and we are not tired." As for your sentry, you can send your own sentry, and if there is a situation, you can communicate with us. ”
Ding Qin nodded, "Okay." ”
Du Zhong said again, "In this way, let's rest first." I sent someone to prepare food. Although the current conditions are not good, there are both distinguished guests and benefactors of Qing'er, so we should set up a banquet. Don't be picky. By the way, Qing'er, you can accompany Ding Qin to take a brief look here. ”
Qing'er smiled slightly, "Don't worry, Dad, I will arrange him." As he spoke, he walked up to Ding Qin, "Let's go, I'll take you out to have a look." By the way, Sister Chengying, you can come along. ”
Neither Ding Qin nor Cheng Ying refused. The two of them knew very well that Du Zhong asked Qing'er to accompany them, in addition to being polite, there was also a layer of meaning, that is, they didn't want outsiders like Ding Qin and Cheng Ying to act here by themselves.
Walking out of the cave, Qing'er said, "Brother Ding, Sister Chengying, in fact, don't blame my father." He became like this after our tribe was murdered by the bad guys. He was under a lot of pressure. ”
Ding Qin said, "I can understand, and I don't blame him." But I'm curious, what happened to your tribe, and were you here at the time?"
Qing'er nodded, "Yes, of course I'm here." Speaking of which, it's been almost five years. ”
"Nearly five years, so long?" Ding Qin said casually, but he thought that it had been ten years since Dong Yi said that the rise of the Water Spirit Pagoda caused fog on the surface of the lake, so he didn't feel strange again.
"yes, five years. Qing'er sighed, "Five years ago, Qing'er was still a teenager. Suddenly, one day, there was a fight in the tribe. I was so frightened that I hid in a corner and didn't dare to come out, but suddenly there was an explosion that threw me against the wall. ”
"I felt like the world was spinning, and then I fainted. When I woke up, a lot of people were dead and a lot more injured. I felt a lot of pain in my body, but my dad was so busy saving people that he didn't care about me at all. He later said that he had examined me and said that although I was injured, it was not life-threatening, so he put me in bed and left me to fend for myself. ”
"At that time, I just felt very sad. I just lay in bed and cried and cried and cried. But my dad just ignored me. At this time, my brother came. ”
When she said this, she added, "It's the brother I mistook you for." ”
"Isn't he from your tribe?" Ding Qin couldn't help but have this question.
