Chapter 32: Let's Make an Alliance!
"Daddy!" Lan Lan rushed away like a little bird, and suddenly threw herself into the arms of the middle-aged barbarian warrior in the lead.
Immediately after, Lan Lan began to speak softly, unable to hear what she was saying, but she could feel the speed of her speech and the excitement of her tone.
As she spoke, the face of the middle-aged barbarian warrior, Lan Lan's father, the patriarch of the Ghost Snake Clan, kept changing, worried, shocked, and joyful...... Emerge in turn.
His gaze, as well as that of the barbarian warriors around him, looked at Gao Ge from time to time.
Finally, the patriarch pressed Lan Lan's shoulder with his hand and seemed to say something.
Lan Lan nodded heavily, and glanced back at Gao Ge coquettishly.
Gao Ge felt that something was wrong.
The barbarian warriors slowly walked towards Gao Ge.
Gao Ge put away the Tang slash and saluted each other at the same time as the patriarch.
"The patriarch of the Snake Clan, the Flame Snake. The voice of the patriarch was low and powerful.
"The Lord of Weishan City, Gao Ge Horton. Gao Ge also introduced himself.
Lieji had obviously heard Lan Lan's introduction to Gao Ge's identity, and he was not surprised, he straightened up and said, "I also heard about the battle of Weishan City, the Liezhu tribe has been hit hard and has become a second-rate tribe. ”
"Yes. However, Weishan City also suffered heavy losses, and the previous city lord was killed in battle, which is why I am the city lord. Gao Ge smiled.
"Very good, the lord of a city, and it is not a disgrace to the pearl in my palm. Lie Lan looked at Lan Lan beside him lovingly.
Lan Lan held her father's arm tightly and looked at Gao Ge with a smile.
"I guess, I can explain......" Gao Ge felt that he couldn't wait any longer.
"There is no need to explain, I bless you. If any other Central Plains person saw my daughter's body, I would have him skinned alive and die at the pain of ten thousand snakes devouring the body of my clan. ”
Gao Ge obediently closed his mouth.
"But you are different, you can relieve my daughter's pain, therefore, I agree with you to marry my daughter. Get married today!" the martyr waved his hand.
"Patriarch of the Flame Snake. Gao Ge had an idea, and said: "According to the rules of our Central Plains, if the man gathers a woman without the consent of his parents, it will be a great contempt for her, which shows that he does not treat this woman as a wife, but just as a plaything." Lan Mei is the daughter of you, the famous patriarch of the Snake Clan, and I must not be so hasty. Please allow me to find time to get my parents' consent before marrying Lan Lan!"
"If you have to force me to marry now, I would rather suffer from the devouring body of ten thousand snakes than humiliate Lan Lan. "Singing righteousness is awe-inspiring.
"Ahh
"Dad!" Lan Lan coquettishly plucked her father's beard with her hand, and at the same time glanced at Gao Ge affectionately.
"Then what are your plans for the future?" Lieji slapped his daughter's hand off in disgust, and asked Gao Ge.
"After all, I am the lord of a city, and I can't leave Weishan City, so I will bring Lan Mei back to Weishan City, with me by my side, she is safe, so that she will not suffer from backlash and risk demonization. "Gao Ge is confident.
Seeing that the Flame Snake nodded and frowned slightly, Gao Ge continued: "But without Lan Mei's protection, you will no longer be safe in this Southern Barbarian Forest. ”
"Yes! The Serpent and Python have been staring at us lately, trying to annex us. The Flame Snake nodded a little annoyedly.
"I had the idea of having the best of both worlds. Gao Ge threw out his thoughts, "In order to prevent barbarians, the Central Plains countries have made a savanna as a buffer. The same is true for the barbarians, within fifty miles of the junction of the Southern Barbarian Forest and the savanna, it is regarded as a forbidden area, and it is easy not to garrison here, because this is the most active area of scouts and explorers sent by the Central Plains.
"But you can live in the area directly opposite Weishan City, which belongs to the defense area of Weishan City, as long as we treat you as friends, you will be absolutely safe there. Other barbarians will not come, and the Central Plains are your friends.
"If you are attacked, just warn, and Weishan City will come to the rescue immediately. Gao Ge waved his hand and said resolutely.
The Snake Clan exchanged glances with each other, and everyone saw excitement in each other's eyes, which further strengthened their respective determinations.
"This is a good plan, if this can be done, we can finally end more than ten years of wandering life. The Flame Worm saluted deeply at Gao Ge.
Gao Ge hurriedly returned the salute, and said again: "The patriarch doesn't have to be polite. Actually, with this arrangement, I also have something to ask the patriarch for. ”
"You say. The Flame Snake raised his hand and gestured.
"The vast southern barbarian forest is full of countless treasures. But the Central Plains people and the barbarians are the mortal enemies of the millennium, if we want to obtain these treasures, we can only form an adventure team to enter, while looking for the treasures, but also have to endure endless barbarian attacks, even if there is something to gain in the end, it is also a huge price.
"You are different, although there are frictions between you and other tribes, but after all, you are both barbarians, and it is normal for you to trade each other's specialties. I hope we can form an alliance, we provide you with security, and you help us buy and exchange what we need. Gao Ge revealed his plan.
"Good son-in-law, good calculation!haha!" Lie Worm laughed and shook hands tightly with Gao Ge, "Deal!"
There was a burst of joy in all directions.
......
Three days later, in the dense forest, the two teams met unexpectedly.
"Singing!" the sound of surprise was like a yellow warbler chirping in the branches.
"Lord Baron!" shouted in delight.
A silver-white figure flew like a butterfly, and she had always been graceful, but at this time, she left all her manners behind.
Found it, finally didn't lose him, that fearless back.
This time, regardless of any reserve, I must throw myself into his arms and pour out my heartfelt words to him.
"Silver Moon, You ......"
"Gao Ge, you ......"
The two looked at each other, eager to read something from each other's eyes.
Yinyue's enthusiastic gaze quickly cooled.
A slightly wild, but amazingly beautiful barbarian girl gently grabbed Gao Ge's arm and asked with a sweet smile, "Brother Gao Ge, who is she." ”
His eyes were full of Chi Guoguo's provocation.
This time, it was the turn of the two beauties to look at each other, and both sides did not let in the slightest, and there seemed to be electric sparks in the air.
Gao Ge had a bitter face and didn't say a word, like sitting on pins and needles.
"Who are you?" Silvermoon raised her delicate chin.
"I, I'm his Lan sister!" Lan Lan leaned her head on Gao Ge's shoulder.
Silver Moon's face was cold below freezing.
Gao Ge hurriedly shrunk his shoulders and smiled awkwardly: "Silver Moon...... Things are not what you think. ”
"Lord Baron, I've finally found you, are you alright?!" Darigori and his party rushed to the front.
"With his sister Lan by his side, he is very good. We're worried in vain!" Yinyue coldly dropped this sentence, turned around and left, her long silver hair turned around and shook it high.
Everyone was speechless in embarrassment for a moment.
"Hmph! Fox!" Lan Lan disdained, she recognized the clan to which Silver Moon belonged.
"Hmph! Viper Girl!" Yinyue Huo Ran turned around, she naturally recognized the clan to which Lan Lan belonged.
Sparks flew again.
Seeing that Gao Ge didn't say anything, Lan Lan finally got angry, and the two beauties glanced at him fiercely, stomped their feet, and left him.
Both Darigori and the Blazing Worm shook their heads in secret.
......
Although there was natural hostility and vigilance between the barbarians of the Snake Tribes and the search team members of Weishan City at first, after singing a few words, Darigori understood the significance of this small barbarian tribe in front of him to Weishan City.
Next, everything went smoothly, after returning to Weishan City, a large amount of supplies were quickly sent to the station selected by the Snake Ministry, and in just three days, a semi-permanent camp had been set up.
Gao Ge told the Legion that this camp should not only be a shelter for the Snake Tribe, but should also be a refuge for all the displaced small tribes, a place they all yearn for.
"The only way for the weak to survive is to unite. ”
Gao Ge's words deeply touched the fierce worm who had had enough of the suffering of wandering, and freed his vision from the limitations of a family.
"Don't worry, good son-in-law, I will treat the wanderers who come to me like my own tribe. The rogue patted his chest and promised loudly.
This will be the first step for Weishan City to enter and operate the Nanban Manglin, in a way that the Central Plains people have never adopted.
And Gao Ge's distress is still not over, Yinyue still ignores him, fortunately, Lan Lan quickly forgot about her unhappiness, she quickly fell in love with Weishan City, and fell in love with this novel way of life that was not available in the forest, pestering Gao Ge every day to go on this and that.
Even if Gao Ge was handling official business, Lan Lan had to follow her, and she became Gao Ge's loyal little follower.
In the city lord's office, Gao Ge was looking at a stack of reports, as long as he was in the city, the reports would never be finished, and Lan Lan, who had changed into a Central Plains person and looked particularly delicate and lovely, was lying leisurely on a chair next to her, with her head and legs comfortably resting on the armrests on both sides of the chair.
She was munching on a piece of bread with great interest, a food that was a novelty to her.
At that moment, Gurley pushed the door open.
"Gao Ge, Hansjia...... I'm afraid he won't be able to survive these few days. Gurley reported to Gao Ge with some sadness.
In private, Gurley is still used to calling Gao Ge by his name, and Gao Ge never sets up music.
"Is there no way?" asked Gao Ge.
In the battle against the Iron Claw, Han Sijia, who was brave and rough by nature, killed and severely injured the five-headed Iron Claw Crow in a row, and he was also severely injured in the chest, but fortunately, his body was strong and he survived to this day.
The hot and humid weather has made the wound worsen, the toxins have entered the body, and no matter how strong the body is, it can no longer last.
Gao Ge went to see him immediately after returning to the city from the forest, and Han Sijia, who was originally stout, had been tortured to the point that he was no longer human.
"Since yesterday there has been a lot of nonsense, and the fever does not go away, said Polyndio, the medical officer we selected from the military household, and he ...... I'm afraid he won't be able to get through today. Gurley said sadly that he and the heroic Hansjia had become good friends.
"I'm going to see him again. Gao Ge stood up.
At the head of the city that day, if it weren't for Han Sijia's timely reinforcements, he and Yinyue would have been in danger long ago.
It's a pity that there are no antibiotics in this world, and in his original world, this is a problem that can be solved with one needle, but here, it will take the precious life of a strong man.
"I'm going too!" Lan Lan, who was not interested in what Gao Ge and Gerly were talking about, and who was all about the dough in her hand, jumped up as soon as she heard that Gao Ge was leaving.
"Alright!" Gao Ge shrugged helplessly, he couldn't do anything about the little tail.
