Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Famine
This time it's terrible, Pan Haigen glared at Da Kui fiercely, and Ah Sheng hurriedly said: "Fight or run?" ”
Without waiting for Pan Haigen to reply, Zhang Ye next to him had already found a knife, but as soon as he peeked out from behind the stone, he heard a scream break through the air, and a short arrow flew into the air and plunged into the stone next to him.
Zhang Ye's face changed slightly, and Pan Haigen shouted in a low voice: "Don't move, don't clash with these people." ”
I said, "What will I do later?" ”
"Don't talk nonsense, I'll talk to them."
As Pan Haigen spoke, he slowly stood up, and the people below had already rushed up, and more than a dozen bows and arrows and earth guns were aimed at him at the same time.
Pan Haigen raised his hands and said loudly: "We are just passing, don't do it...... everyone"
Immediately one of the people below shouted: "Stand there and don't move, and those who are hiding behind, all stand up and lay down all their weapons......"
Pan Haigen turned his head and made a look, and a few of us had to get up from behind the stone, follow his example, and also raise our hands, but Zhang Ye had a look of disgruntle, but his face changed a few times, he still put away his gun, hid his knife, and stood up.
Immediately someone came up, surrounded us, forced us down the hill, my heart thumped, at this time closer, I saw that these people are very different from the Han people in the Central Plains, high cheekbones, deep eye sockets, skin is all wheat-colored, all described fierce, strong and powerful.
We went down the hill and came to the young man who was taking the lead, and he looked us up and down with wide eyes, and suddenly pulled out a short knife from his waist, pointed at Pan Haigen and asked, "Who are you and what are you doing here!" ”
Pan Haigen looked up at the young man and said quietly: "We are from the national archaeological team, and we are naturally here to do investigation work, but we got lost in front of us, and somehow we came here, this brother, if you can, please help us show us a clear way." ”
"The country? Which country, seeing that you should be Chinese, how can you archaeology come here? "The young man looked like a barbarian, but he was not stupid, and it seemed that he also knew that this was now the territory of Russia.
Pan Haigen was still very calm, pointed at us and said: "Oh, we belong to an international joint organization, and we have traveled all over the world, but this is the first time we have come to this place, so the path is not familiar, I saw you hunting just now, and I was afraid of causing a misunderstanding, so I hid." ”
The young man, still suspicious, stared at Pan Haigen for a while, then looked at us again, and suddenly fixed on my face, pointed at me and shouted, "Who are you?" ”
I was shocked, and subconsciously blurted out: "We are all in this together......"
"Together? No, I don't think you look like it, so there's no need to say more, Batuu, bring them back and hand them over to Elder Moir for interrogation. ”
"Yes!"
A big man beside him responded with a voice, and immediately led people to surround us violently, and he was about to tie us up when he saw the posture.
This time Zhang Ye didn't do it, he reached out to touch his waist, and was about to make a move, Da Kui also shouted, his eyes widened, and he put on a desperate posture, he was tall and strong, a few points taller than the people over there, but it was a pity that the other party was outnumbered, and several bows and arrows were aimed at Da Kui and Zhang Ye at the same time, and a conflict was about to occur.
Pan Haigen waved his hands continuously, stopped everyone, and said loudly: "This brother, I think you have a misunderstanding, to tell the truth, if everyone conflicts at this time, it will not be beneficial to both you and me, although there are many of you, you may not be able to take advantage of it." Since you are suspicious at this time, I will explain the situation and solve the misunderstanding, so there is no need to shout and arrest, right? ”
As soon as he said this, the man was slightly stunned, glanced at Pan Haigen a few more times, nodded and said, "Okay, you are also a man, then it's up to you, Batu, give each of them a deer, and go back to the village together." ”
The big man responded, and immediately called someone to drive a few deer over, Pan Haigen looked at it, turned back to us and whispered: "Everyone will walk together later, and they must not be separated, no matter what these people want to do, they must not act rashly, listen to me, understand?" ”
Zhang Ye nodded silently, then walked to the deer, turned over and jumped up, those deer thought that they were used to being ridden, and they were actually very honest, and more than ten people on the other side scattered, firmly surrounded us in the middle, and urged me and Pan Haigen to ride up quickly.
I saw that I could only go with them, but I had never ridden a donkey since I was a child, and besides, the deer was very tall, taller than an ordinary horse, and the deer's back was bare, and it seemed that it was not easy to go up.
I gritted my teeth, pressed my hands on the deer's back, and jumped twice before I climbed up, but it was staggering, and the young man next to me suddenly pointed at me and shouted, "Come on, give him a rope." ”
So someone came and put a rope around the deer's neck, and put one end in my hand, and I grabbed the rope, and then my heart was a little more stable, and I turned back to the young man and nodded, "Thank you." ”
The corner of the young man's mouth showed a trace of disdain, and he raised his head and said: "I'll just say that you are not with them, hum, Batu, you send someone to go back to report the news first, let's go!" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the big man named Batu called a man and gave a few orders, and the man urged the deer to run away alone, and went back to report the news first, while the others separated and surrounded us in the middle, and a few more men drove the reindeer in front, and began to move forward slowly.
A few of us got together and looked at each other a few times, all with complicated faces, but fortunately, those people didn't go too far, and they didn't search us or snatch our backpacks, which made my heart settle down a little, and I think about it, although these people have mysterious origins and fierce people, they don't seem to have any malicious intentions.
The wilderness was open in front of me, the deer were fast, I rode on the back of the deer, grasping the rope noose, although a little uneasy, but my heart was involuntarily a burst of joy, looking up, at the end of this wilderness, is the hazy mountain.
I glanced at Pan Haigen, and then looked at the people around me, I couldn't help but secretly rejoice that I didn't clash with these people just now, otherwise there would have been heavy casualties at this time, although we have guns in our hands, but those people's strong bows and arrows should not be underestimated, after all, our trip is for exploration, if we haven't found the Black Water Demon Cave, we will have a conflict and lose our lives, then it is a big joke.
We walked all the way, walked for about half an hour, and there was a valley in front of us, which was quite similar to the valley we had seen before, a large road led to the valley mouth, and there was a thick wooden fence several meters high in front of it, sealing the valley mouth, and vaguely looking, there were more than ten people standing at the valley mouth, looking far away, and at the same time, a horn sound like breaking the sky and breaking the clouds suddenly sounded in front.
At this time, Batu, who was behind us, also took out a curved horn from his body, and blew it with a whin, and the people at the mouth of the valley seemed to get a signal, and immediately opened the fence and let go of the passage at the mouth of the valley, and those people became excited for no reason, and shouted and screamed in their mouths, and suddenly urged the reindeer to speed up and run.
This time, the reindeer we were riding were also affected, and without warning, they suddenly jumped out and rushed forward with the deer. I was startled, and I hurriedly grabbed the rope noose, and when I lowered my body, I saw the scenery flying on both sides, the deer galloping in front of me, the sound of trumpets, and the shouting of shouts, and in a few moments, I rushed to the mouth of the valley.
Someone in front of him had already greeted him, detoured from both sides, first picked up the hundred and ten reindeer, drove them into the valley, and a few more people ran towards us, one of them was a tall young man standing in front of the valley mouth, with his hands on his waist, and shouted loudly: "Su He, I heard that you caught a few foreigners and came back, why don't you tie them up?" ”
The young man drove the deer forward, and also replied loudly: "The foreigners are not wild deer and wild boars, what are you doing to tie them up, Mo Hai, you get out of the way." ”
The young man, still standing at the mouth of the valley, cried out, "Wild deer and wild boars can be tamed, but foreigners are a hundred times more dangerous, have you forgotten the teachings of the elders?" ”
At this time, we were about to rush to the front, and the young man Su He shouted in a dissatisfied tone: "What did you say, Brother An is also a foreigner, why don't you say this to him?" Get out of the way! ”
That Mo Hai snorted coldly when he heard this, his face was disdainful, but he still got out of the way, and as soon as we rushed over, we heard Mo Hai shouting from behind: "You keep saying Brother An, don't you forget that he has brought two foreigners to come the day before yesterday, according to me, if you continue for such a long time, you will be ...... sooner or later."
His words were gradually left behind by us, and we couldn't hear clearly, but from his words, a lot of information was revealed, and I urged the deer to run to Pan Haigen's side, and whispered: "You heard me, there have been two people here before, do you think it will be another group of people in front of us?" ”
Pan Haigen glanced back, lowered his voice and said: "Whether it is or not, let's just act when we see the opportunity, in short, one principle, as long as everyone can leave here safely, it is a success, don't worry about other things, ask more, remember, if you say too much, you will lose, and the purpose of our coming here can't be said if we are killed." ”
Several of us nodded at the same time, and ran into the valley, the front suddenly opened, and a large field appeared, only to see the longitudinal and horizontal, cooking smoke, looking ahead, it was a rare village......
