Volume 2: The Wandering World Chapter 123: Re-examination (25) Forest Waiting Department

Shieldmen, spearmen, axes, and grenadiers were still a hundred-man ranks, and the archers were expanded to eighty, the horse cavalry to fifty, and the ox cavalry to thirty, and the tribal warbands became stronger.

There are already one hundred and fifty flesh and bone warriors, and there are ten people who have reached the peak of warriors, not including Yu and Yu, who are getting stronger and stronger, even surpassing the old leader of the year, and can fight against thirty flesh and bone warriors alone.

The current leader is a little behind, but he also feels the movement of awakening, the two people who were equal to him in the past have also reached the limit of flesh and blood warriors, but they are too old, they are the old people of the tribe at the beginning.

One is one hundred and ten years old, the other is one hundred and twenty years old, his qi and blood have begun to decline, and there is no hope of a breakthrough.

Ten years from the maturity of the last vermilion, a small flower bloomed on the small tree, a few years, the small flower from white to pink, there is a tendency to change to red, want to produce a new vermilion, it still takes a short time.

Evergreen berries bloom every year, bear fruit every year, and ripen every year, fully ripe purple-red spirit berries, with incomparably abundant energy and blood, one can create a flesh and bone warrior, but it is all handed over to Yu.

But when it came to the critical moment, it was not something that could help, so the Wood Witch was handed over to You, and with the help of the spirit berry, You's strength gradually caught up, and Yu's breath became deeper and deeper, and it was not far from awakening.

However, there is no time for him to wait, even though the tribe's strength is much stronger now than when the fire tribe was overthrown, but in the face of the unknown forest Hou Department, there is still no certainty, whether it will fight or flee is not yet known.

Even the Wood Witch, who likes to explore the jungle the most, did not go out at will after defeating the Fire Tribe, and locked himself in the tree house all day long, rarely going out and walking, studying countermeasures to deal with the Forest Weather Department.

After the forty-ninth year of the Mu tribe's great sacrifice, the entire tribe fell into a strange calm, although only the high-level knew about the affairs of the Lin Hou Department, but their suppression indirectly affected the tribesmen, and many people were panicked.

This suppressed mood lasted for the whole year, and the fifty-year sacrifice of the Mu tribe ended, and the wood witch took time to prepare a large-scale spring hunt, as a fifty-year celebration, the tribe regained a lot of vitality.

In the summer of the same year, a contingent of several hundred men came from the jungle to the west, all flesh and blood, all dressed in crude fur sweaters, most of them untanned, and a few of them tanned.

In the center of the procession, there was an obvious "high-level", he was wearing a fine deerskin coat, comfortable and soft, and under him rode a tall bighorn deer, with two small yellow swords hanging from his waist, which were actually made of pure copper!

The uninvited guest came straight to the Fire Tribe, and was soon discovered by the patrolling warriors, who notified the Wood Witch in the tribe, alarming all the people in the Fire Tribe, and the tribesmen ran outside to look at the unkind team.

At the beginning of last year, the Wood Tribe made a division, and the fire tribe branch of 400 slaves and 500 warriors, whether commoners, nobles or slaves, were changed into untanned animal skin clothes and pants, and bronze weapons were also replaced.

Like war horses, war oxen, bows and arrows, slings, and spear throwers, they were all left in the tribe headquarters, these are the strongest combat power of the tribe, and they must not be discovered, and the fire tribe branch is not a good place.

"Who are you, where have the Fire Tribes gone?" asked the young man riding the bighorn deer, who glanced for a moment and found no fire witch or fire leader.

The language of the Forest Hou Department is more systematic, and the difference between it and the Wood Tribe is also greater, and his eyes paused on the bronze sword and the bighorn deer, and the Wood Witch replied respectfully in the language of the Fire Tribe: "The Fire Tribe has migrated, and we are the new Wood Tribe." ”

"Migration? Why did they move? There are salt mines, tree houses, fire pits, food, how can they migrate?" The young man's face was not good, and he did not believe his words, and his already pale face turned a little blue.

"We don't know what happened, they were too eager to leave, they didn't say anything, we were the most powerful tribe in the Fire Tribe region, and we took over after they left. ”

Mu Wu danced with his hands, said the prepared words, and continued: "You must be the respected Lord Lin Houbu! We have heard of your prestige, but we don't know the path, so we didn't go to meet you. ”

The young man did not speak, and led the team into the wooden wall, and the warriors of the Wood tribe did not stop them, but only stood beside them with their weapons, and five hundred warriors, one hundred of whom were flesh and blood warriors, were also standing at the scene.

After a little vigilance, the young man began to inspect the tribe, like a king who inspected his subjects, he was not more than sixty years old, but he was already the peak of flesh and blood warriors, and the bighorn deer under him was also a peak barbarian.

But what made Mu Wu wary was not the majestic youth, but the burly man standing next to him, like an iron tower, his body exuded the fluctuation of supernatural abilities, and he was obviously also a supernatural warrior.

In the hands of the Alien Warriors, he held a stout Takogmu spear, the spearhead was green and mottled, and the Wood Witch began to think it was a stone, but when he got closer, he found that it was bronze!

The wooden tribe who have put down their bronze weapons, bows and arrows, and cavalry, it will be very difficult to keep them, not to mention the forest department behind them, if they can not do it, they will try not to do it, and everyone will be safe.

After inspecting several workshops of the tribe one after another, the young man's face also changed rapidly, weaving and stone tools and leather clothes were fine, and those pottery that was more exquisite than the royal department really blinded his eyes.

He found that these exquisite pottery were all burned from the pile of soil, so he started to dismantle a pottery kiln that was not lit, but found nothing, and in the face of his actions, the people of the wood tribe dared not speak out.

After the inspection, the team of the forest waiting department was taken by the wood witch to the fire pond, and asked the tribesmen to prepare food for entertainment, and the barbecue, broth and novel fried meat with various spices were added, which once again captured the hearts of the young people.

"The Fire Tribe is a subordinate clan of the Forest Hou Tribe, and if they encounter any danger, the Forest Hou Department will definitely not sit idly by. After eating and drinking, the young man began to talk about business, and as soon as he spoke, the faces of the people of the wood tribe changed.

Seeing his gaze again, he swept over the pottery, spices, and salt, and continued: "But since they took the initiative to relocate, it has nothing to do with us, you have replaced the Fire Tribe, and you are the new ruler of the five hundred miles. ”

"I have heard that when the Fire Tribe was here, it handed over 8,000 catties of salt to the Forest Department every ten years, and the Wood Tribe was willing to hand over the amount. Mu Wu said loudly, the real number is definitely not that much, this is a compromise of the wood tribe.

But Lin Houbu was not satisfied, the young man lion opened his mouth, shook his head and said: "No, no, no, it should be that you heard it wrong, or you remembered it wrongly, the offerings handed over by the Fire Tribe for ten years are not 8,000 catties, but 30,000 catties of salt!"

"The Wood Tribe doesn't have that much salt. "Mu Wu's face is very ugly, 30,000 catties in ten years must be left, but with so much salt, the Mu tribe has no reserves and cannot deal with various crises.

Seeing that he was embarrassed, the young man changed his words: "If you don't have enough salt, you can make up for it with pottery and spices, such pottery, one top is a hundred catties of salt, and such spices can also be worth a hundred catties of salt." ”

"Yes. "Wood Witch compromises.

"Every ten years, the Fire Tribe has to hand over a hundred slaves. The young man continued.

"No!" the Wood Witch directly refused.

The young man smiled, looked at the tribe with less than a thousand people, and did not force it anymore, and said: "The Mu tribe did not pay the supply last year, Mu Hou was very angry, and punished you twice, and I will bring someone to me tomorrow." ”

"Yes. Wood Witch nodded.

......

20,000 catties of rock salt, 200 clay pots, 200 catties of spices, for the wood tribe, it is also a huge amount of money, spices are good to say, there are 1,000 catties of output every year, except for the needs of the tribe, there is a surplus every year.

The headquarters of the clay pot wood tribe is fully popularized, and the reserves of the fire tribe branch are also enough to deal with it. The salt mine put in 300 slaves and 100 civilians, and the annual output was more than 20,000 catties, and after excluding consumption and trading, more than 5,000 catties could be left.

Today's tribe has 50,000 catties of salt, and 20,000 catties can also be taken out, and it took two or three days to collect all the materials, load them with more than 100 back baskets, and set off with the team of the Forest Waiting Department.

Mu Wu personally led the team, leading three hundred warriors, following behind them, with spearmen, shield soldiers and sword and axe soldiers, leaving behind to guard the fire branch, and Yu Zhen guarding the wood headquarters, followed by Yi Zhengmao and the leader You.

It took a month and a half for everyone to reach the forest tribe from the wood tribe, which was different from the imaginary forest tree house, although the forest tribe lived in the jungle, the place of residence was a valley, more than ten miles wide.

The valley is littered with large and small huts, and there are a few wooden huts in the middle, which are high-rise residences, with wooden pens surrounded by wooden sticks, domesticated by thousands of livestock, pigs, cattle, sheep and deer.

In the relatively flat place, farmland has also been reclaimed, and several kinds of vegetarian food are planted, but the area is not large, only more than 100 acres, burning branches and leaves in the ground, stabbing small holes with wooden forks, burying seeds, covering soil, simple and rude.

There are many people in the valley, roughly estimated at least more than 5,000 people, and there are more than 2,000 warriors seen, most of them wearing untanned leather clothes, and a small number of people wearing tanned leather clothes, with clear hierarchies.

It also makes pottery, the quality is better than that of the Fire Tribe, but it is worse than the Wood Tribe, it is only stoneware, a small number of people use bronze ware, but it is only to decorate the identity, and some are all kinds of utensils, pure copper is soft, not suitable for making weapons.

On the way here, the wooden witch knocked on the side and asked the young man what was the origin of the weapon in the hand of the strong man of the iron tower? The young man proudly told him that it was a holy mine, and only the royal department had it, and there was no other place.

Only those who have made great feats can be rewarded by the king, which is a symbol of glory and force, and only the soldiers with extraordinary abilities have them, speaking of which, the eyes of the young people are full of envy.

Wangbu? That should be a stronger existence than the Hou Ministry, and even the Hou Bu has to submit to them, which can be regarded as the top ruler on the continent! Unexpectedly, they have also learned to refine bronze, and Mu Wu is vigilant in his heart.

The Lin Hou Department was already very powerful, and there were eight people who could perceive the ability warriors alone! On the second day after arriving here, Mu Wu was received and met with Lin Hou and Wu, the leaders of the Lin Hou Department.

Lin Hou is tall, at least two zhang, and the aura on his body is much stronger than Zhang. Lin Wu is also the pinnacle of flesh and blood warriors, his face is covered with a linen mask, and he can't see his true face clearly, and both of them are wearing cloth clothes.

The cloth clothes are also rewarded by the king's department, and the forest hou department only has the leader and the witch, the forest hou department is already so powerful, how strong is the legendary royal department? Mu Wu's heart was full of curiosity, but he suppressed it.

Wu and Lin Hou's attitude is not salty or light, as for the reason for the disappearance of the Fire Tribe, they should know that the law of the continent is the law of the continent, and they are only willing to meet the wood witch for the sake of tribute.

The attitude was naturally not much better, not salty or indifferent, and even a little indifferent, but he recognized the identity of the Mu tribe, except for asking for the annual tribute to arrive, he didn't say anything, and drove the people of the Mu tribe out of the valley.
