After this day, he never took the initiative to find Isabella again, and even deliberately avoided her many times, avoiding the burning gaze, and the communication guidance that he had originally agreed to was gone. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

After Isabella realized Rodin's deliberate estrangement, her attitude changed from resentment to coldness, and every time she saw the other party, she seemed extremely cold and less enthusiastic than she had been.

Even in the classroom where I trained the young children of the tribe, I never saw her smile and say a word.

The relationship between the two fell into a freezing point, and the relationship between Cynthia and Isabella's best friend was also a little more estranged, never talking about anything, degenerating into an ordinary friendship, and the kind girl also cried a lot about this matter to pay tribute to this dead friendship.

Luo Dan felt a little guilty and panicked inexplicably, and he no longer cared about the affairs of the tribe, concentrated on his cultivation, accompanied his family, and missed the last big competition of the Green Grass Festival without intentionally participating in it.

The days pass like water, and the transition is smooth, three months have passed since the Grass Festival, and in late spring, the grass warbler flies the best season of the year.

During this time, he never left the tribe except to take a look at the strange stone carvings of Alinlu.

During this time, the mastery of the hybrid force has improved significantly, and he is "as skilled as a veteran with decades of experience" in the blending of sword oil, according to Lexa. "And he has been able to control the two transfiguration tentacles with ease, and his combat effectiveness has been significantly improved.

However, the blood seed was stuck at the peak of the black iron and could not bloom for a long time, breaking through to the bronze level, and the mutation runes were bland and did not improve.

The two are still accumulating, and he occasionally has a hint of eagerness and anticipation.

After training the bear children every day, the black sun swordsmanship and meditation practice have been steadily improved, and everything has returned to normality and fulfillment.

The four Shenlong of the Wind Brigade saw that they were not in sight, and they still refused to join the Flint Tribe, but they stayed for more than three months and did not leave, and they didn't know what they were busy with.

Cynthia and Kikigo compete for a bed in a surprising way, and Lori wins the night for him.

After the girl follows Tengger to learn the secret of taming animals, she must increase her tacit understanding and intimacy with Amber and Qing'er according to the requirements.

So after the daily chores, she had a daily routine of taming animals, and she was with the two small places almost all day long. Training in the field during the day, sleeping at night is a lot of sleep, and then the two little couples Cynthia's intimate energy is like a cub to a mother.

If they weren't two female beasts, Rodin would never have been able to hold it back.

It is worth mentioning that after two months of careful feeding, Erxiao has gradually gained a little bit of the majesty of a monster from the initial cuteness and youthfulness.

Amber's size has almost reached the level of a medium-sized dog, and the streamlined physique has begun to take shape, with jagged teeth and spikes on its hooves becoming more and more pronounced, and its appearance is gradually different from that of normal horses, but is moving closer to carnivorous beasts such as lions, tigers, and leopards.

It trembled from walking at the beginning, to running faster than an ordinary man with its thin arms and legs.

And Qing'er's changes are more obvious, with the bloodline of the steppe wind wolf, basically one day at a time, at the beginning, the plush fist-sized body has grown to the knee position, it seems that it is no longer cute, but the fur is shiny, the body has become slender, and gradually has the demeanor of the father.

In addition, Cynthia's talent in witchcraft cultivation is undoubtedly revealed, and in just two months, she has cultivated the spiritual power of the three Oron's foundations, and she has also learned the two witchcraft tricks of cleansing and ignition from Isabella, but the marginal spiritual power is not enough to perform.

The only regret is that the two spend a lot less time alone.

But watching the girl grow up day by day, with more heroism and confidence on her face, he felt the joy of empathy.

On this day, early in the morning, a group of black-clad men with swords poured into the flint camp, their faces were expressionless, menacing, and they looked like thugs who came to collect debts, and the red snake tattoo on the corner of the right eye added to its three points of demonic color.

"It's not good—" Rodin sighed, and there was a depression inside and outside the camp, and the people put down their work and stared at the strangers, their eyes full of suspicion, fear, and fear of something.

A heavily armed group of guards in the camp immediately converged in front of the stranger and confronted each other for a few moments until Baruch appeared.

Correspondingly, among the group of unkind men, a uniquely dressed young man came out, and his facial features were somewhat feminine.

The fashionable white shirt and neat and beautiful leather pants made him stand out from the crowd of five big and three rough prairie boys, and his words and deeds carried the tone of the nobility of the human city-state, and even the excessive pale of wine was inherited, in short, he was a little self-controlled, and obviously wanted to distinguish himself from the people around him.

Rodin couldn't help but laugh, the big man and this young man stood together, there was a sense of absurdity of "foreign city people" and "hillbillies" coexisting.

The young man walked gracefully and entered the reception bag with Chief Baruch, who had come to greet him.

There was a smile on the corner of his mouth, but he didn't smile, like a battle-hardened businessman.

"Who are these?"

Cynthia asked Isabella with some curiosity. The latter's eyebrows were full of gloom, and he said uncontrollably,

"The red sulfur tribe, the leading young man is the second son of the red sulfur chieftain Lie Xi'a, Lie Weiping, who has always liked the style of human nobles, and has also developed the shortcomings of oily tone and small belly. “

"I don't know what the hell they're trying to do!? No, I'm going to go and see, you take care of the kids. ”

With that, she left in a hurry.

The group of strangers entered the meeting room and did not move for a long time.

Soon after, a word circulated among the Flint Tribe.

At the end of his life, the chief of the Flint Tribe's rival tribe, the Red Sulphur Chieftain, will invite twenty tribal representatives to the Red Sulphur Territory to administer justice and witness the birth of a new chief.

The flintstone chief Baruch needs to sit in the base camp and specially send his daughter Isabella to organize a team of ten people to visit on behalf of the flintstone tribe.

"What are you worried about?

"But what happened last time, there is still a rift between us, and I guess I don't have my share in this trip. ”

Rodin always unconsciously remembered the cold eyes, as if a cat was naughtily biting in his heart.

Cynthia tilted her head and said, "Red Sulfur Tribe, I heard Daddy Tengger say that even if you hurry up, you will have a day's trip, I don't know when Sister Isa will leave?"

"And the relationship between the two tribes is very bad, will it be dangerous for Sister Isa to go there?"

"Maybe this news is someone else's nonsense. “

Rodin quietly suggested, "Then you will go out and ask her how she is in a moment, baby?"

The girl did not doubt that he agreed, although her relationship with Isabella was not as close as before, but there was still a lot of communication on weekdays.

The discussion of the red sulfur tribe lasted for most of the day without any results.

Rodin couldn't help but take the girl to find Lexa, a well-informed elder, and inquire about the authenticity of the news.

"Haha, once this old thing is gone, the position of the chief of the Red Sulfur Department will be contested!"

Unexpectedly, when my father heard the news of Lie's death, Lao Huai was relieved, and his happy beard was about to rise.

Rodin asked, "I've heard that the Red Sulphur tribe doesn't have much to do with our flint?"

"It's not just our Flint tribe that doesn't have a good relationship with it, the red sulfur tribe offended almost all the tribes back then, and thousands of people spurned it. It's still hard to let go. “

Lexa stroked his gray beard and nodded,

"I distinctly remember that it was the year 2102 of the sacred calendar, exactly one hundred and seven years ago. At that time, I was just right, younger and more handsome than you. ”

He began to reminisce with great care,

"On that day, the Red Sulfur Tribe was suddenly invaded by an emperor-level rift that was rare in a century, and the entire defense line was crushed by monsters in one fell swoop, and it was almost facing the disaster of extinction. “

Suddenly, his beard was like an exposed lion,

"Who would have thought that the previous generation of red sulfur chieftains would be so treacherous and lead the way to the east! That old puppet doesn't know how to lure most of the monsters into our unsuspecting 'friendly neighbors'. “

"At that time, we were completely caught off guard, and we didn't even have time to open the Totem Guardian Array at the first time. In order to protect their relatives and friends, the soldiers of the flint went forward to build a solid barrier with their corpses. “

"Hate it, that was the first and only time I regretted choosing a swordsmith, and at that time I could only survive as a logistician, cowering and sloppy. “

"And we, fifteen hundred of our flints, lost a third of our population in this battle of defense. “

"Red sulphur barely resisted the invasion and survived, while other tribes fell victim to it and suffered terrible losses! “

"It's not an exaggeration to say that it's a sea of blood. “

Rodin was surprised, "Didn't the tribe settle accounts with them?"

Hearing this, a few cloudy tears oozed from the corners of his eyes, and his voice trembled and said,

"How could we let him go? How could we let him go?"

"It's a pity that this old man still has some self-knowledge, and when we came to the door, he apologized to himself in front of the representatives of various tribes, and even compensated us for most of the materials, saying that it was to make amends. “

"Alas, we have nowhere to vent our grievances, but we can't vent them indiscriminately, the Red Sulfur Tribe has also suffered great losses after this battle, after all, it is the main battlefield, and its casualties and losses exceed those of any tribe. “

"At that time, the red sulfur could only be said to have survived, and the chieftain's suicide was also an explanation, so why should we bear to be harsh?"

"Besides, we are busy with the post-war reorganization of our respective tribes, so we don't pursue it further. “

Hearing this, Cynthia on the side clenched her pretty face and silver teeth, and said fiercely,

"The Red Sulfur Tribe is indeed hateful!"

"But they are also pitiful, and if I were to replace them, I guess I wouldn't be able to take care of them." ”

Rodin said categorically, "Such hatred, even if it is let go for a while, will be engraved in the bones for generations." ”

"So the major tribes are still in a relationship with red sulfur. ”

The old man said, "Almost, in the last twenty years or so, the Red Sulfur Tribe has only contacted the Flint Tribe a handful of times. Only one of the Blue Wolves had a better relationship with them. ”

Then he said with some envy, "Who would have thought that a hundred years later, it would be able to make a comeback, but it would become the most powerful of the twenty divisions of the noble grassland!"

Rodin: "Why?"

"Alas...... This is also their unique geographical location, as a giant star iron ore vein was discovered fifty years ago in the territory of the Red Sulfur Tribe. ”

"Star Iron is a valuable casting material, but any high-quality weapon, even a divine weapon, cannot do without it. “

"At that time, once it was discovered, it immediately attracted the attention of the Sith Emperor, and after repeated consultations, the Imperial Emperor finally joined forces with the Red Sulfur Tribe. “

"Hugging this thigh is completely different. “

Lexa said this, and there was no jealousy in his tone.

"In recent years, the Red Sulphur tribe has grown and built a large number of buildings, and now the total population has more than doubled that of our flint. ”

"I've heard that it's not as prosperous as a small human city-state, but I don't know if it's true or not. ”

Rodin thought to himself, "This is similar to the Saudi tyrant who sits on oil." ”

"Then it makes sense, the position of the chief of the power center in control of such a large tribe is bound to be coveted by many people. But—"

He then asked,

"Isn't the position of tribal chief a son inheriting his father's business? How many heirs does the chief of the red sulfur have? It is worth asking our long-standing tribe to 'administer justice.'" “

"According to tribal tradition, chiefdom is chosen for the office, but tribal priests, the heirs of the previous chiefs, are natural candidates. And those who are supported by more than 100 tribesmen are also eligible. “

The girl suddenly asked curiously, "Then he can be selected internally, what does it matter to us outsiders?"

Rodin guessed, "It is estimated that the involvement is too large, and some people are sick and rush to the doctor, so they want to use our unexpected strength!"

At this moment, the meeting between the Red Sulphur people and the Flint tribe officially ended.

The aristocratic young man led a group of followers out of the felt bag, his face was full of smug smiles, and his narrow eyes swept over Isabella's pretty face from time to time, with an inexplicable pleasure.

Baruch personally sent Lie Weiping and his party away, riding fast horses and leaving the dust.

He turned around and looked at the figure with an inexplicable melancholy, and said helplessly and regretfully, "Daughter, Dad, I just want to see you happy, don't force yourself to do anything you regret." “

"Now the flintstone tribe is developing very well, and you don't need to make such sacrifices. ”

"During this time, you have hidden things in your heart, and you have been depressed, and you have lost a lot. Dad, I don't like it in my eyes, I just pursue it, why do I have to practice myself like this?"

"Also, I think that your father was completely open-minded back then, and I defeated one opponent after another to grab your mother's big beauty. ”

"Don't worry too much, no matter what, I'll support you!"

"Daddy, I know what I'm doing, just let me be willful again, I won't let you be sad and disappointed. “

Isabella gazed at the fiery clouds in the sky in a daze, her slender figure stretched longer and longer in the setting sun, her thin veil and jet-black hair fluttering in the evening breeze, just like her mood.

In the evening, after tea and dinner, people began to talk about today's scene again.

"Have you heard, today the red sulfur tribe not only invited our tribe to watch the ceremony and witness, but also made a request. “

"Oh, didn't these dogs come to beg us, and dare to make demands, do they dare to forget the mistakes they have made against us when they are a little richer?

"Alas, I also feel that this person, as soon as he has money, he begins to look at no one, and even the basic etiquette and shame are forgotten. And when I heard this request, I was really angry. ”

"Oh, what's the plan for these wretches?"

"Isabella knows. ”

"Of course, the most delicate rose of our flintstone tribe, who doesn't know who doesn't know?"

"What do you mean? That dog toad wants to eat swan meat?"

The voice suddenly lowered, "Well, but I also heard it randomly, so I can't take it seriously." “

"Dan, is what they said true?" Rodin and Cynthia, who were enjoying the world of the two of them, happened to be passing by and heard the shocking news.

"Is Sister Isabella really going to marry into the Red Sulfur Tribe? But I don't think that Lie Weiping is a good person!?"

Cynthia pursed her lips, "Or...... Let's go and persuade my sister!"

"Ah...... This, these things are supposed to be considered by herself. But as far as I am concerned, this marriage is really not very suitable. ”

"But when you still have to go with her about the affairs of the girl's family, I won't be involved as a big man. ”

Rodin hesitated and replied.

"Oh, I don't think I saw you two say a word in a while. The girl muttered unintentionally, Rodin's face twitched violently, and she couldn't help but slander in her heart,

"Honey, your nerve reflex is too long, has it taken so long to find out?"

Cynthia didn't notice his anomaly and nodded her head.

"Okay, I'll go find Sister Isha now, you can go home first and wait for my news!"

When he returned home, he sat in a daze, not knowing what to think, until Cynthia reappeared in front of him, and he suddenly stood up uncontrollably, not even noticing the complexity on his face.

"Honey, where did she say?"

"I didn't expect that rumor to be true. ”

"Red Sulphur Lie Weiping wanted the flint to vote for him in the election of the red sulphur chieftain, so he came to marry and promised a lot of benefits. ”

The girl said a little unhappily, "My sister said that she agreed to Lie Weiping's request after careful consideration, and this time she went to Chi Su to get engaged by the way. “

"But I think she's unhappy, and I can feel that she's not willing. ”

"Maybe it's just a sacrifice made for the tribe to prosper. ”

"Oh...... Now that she's made up her mind, there's nothing we can do. ”

The girl suddenly hugged his waist, put her fair little face into his arms, and said distressedly, "My dear, this time you are on the list of going to the Red Sulfur Tribe, and I am reluctant to go for ten days, but I can't bear to refute Sister Isa." ”

"Ah...... Why did you just call me, there's no reason!?"

Luo Dan's heart suddenly had mixed feelings, obviously there was such a big gap between the two, wouldn't it be embarrassing to call him again?

"Is it a demonstration of change of direction?"
