Chapter 812: This Is Not Migration
Timber sat resting on a stone in the grass, surrounded by a few longboat tribesmen who had just returned from a road survey. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The other longboat people and Yanjiao's team are still behind, and the wood cutting is to take people to explore the way first, after all, they are familiar with this area, and they can make judgments at the slightest breeze, mainly to see if the slave owners and nobles have any action.
According to the shortest route, if you want to get from the landing point to the royal city, the shortest route must pass through the vicinity of Chaoqiu City, and the longboat tribe goes to Chaoqiu City the most.
As one of the headquarters cities of the six major tribes of the royal city, Chaoqiu City is the farthest from the royal city, even if there is any news, it is the latest to know, if Chaoqiu City knows that there are Yanjiao people coming over from the sea, then everyone else must also know.
It's just that the person who came back from the investigation told Mu Shu that Chaoqiu City was no different, and it was no different from the past, which made Mu Shu worried. If the people of Chaoqiu City didn't get the news, would Yanjiao's team go over and fight directly with Chaoqiu City?
Mu Felling was frowning in thought, and suddenly raised his eyes to look ahead, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes.
When the others saw this, they all looked over vigilantly.
There are many people who raid the road, and the Longboat tribe encounters this kind of thing every time they trade back and forth. The thirty or so people of the Longboat tribe present stared at the movement ahead.
They already smell the nasty breath.
"The people of the black shark. A longboat warrior whispered, his expression as if he smelled.
"Hmm. Mu Felling sat on the stone in the same position as before, staring ahead with his eyes straight ahead, and did not say much.
Black Shark is a relatively young organization, it has only been established for a few decades, and it is full of people with excellent water skills, good sailing skills, adventurous spirit, and ruthless enough.
In the past, the people of the black shark only went back and forth between some rivers, and occasionally went to the sea to swim around, but the risk in the sea was too great, and there was no profit to be made, so they always focused on the rivers in the land, engaged in river trade, transporting people, goods, robbery, and so on. Of course, if it is just these, the black shark is just an inconspicuous small role in many organizations of the same type, until the catastrophe of heaven and earth, the two continents are close, the black shark seized the opportunity to rise, participate in the voyage, and will charge a lot of money to send some people to the land on the other side of the sea. In the past two years, at least 2,000 new people have been recruited, some of whom have stayed inland to continue the previous river trade, and some of whom have seized excellent coastal territory.
The black shark also wanted to buy a ship from the long boat, in terms of shipbuilding, the people of the long boat do have an advantage, each ship is enough to sail back and forth many times, and it is big enough, and the ship in the hands of the black shark is much inferior, which is also the reason why they have not really set foot on another continent for the time being, their current ship, smuggling a few people is okay, but if you want to carry precious goods and fight a naval battle, it will not have much advantage.
It's a pity that the long boat doesn't sell the boat, no matter the black shark's coercion and temptation, it just doesn't let go.
When the Changzhou tribe grabbed the territory, the black shark also joined forces with two other organizations to bring a lot of trouble to the longboat. So when it comes to "black sharks", the people of Changzhou don't have a good face.
Soon, a team appeared in the sight of the woodcut and the others. It was a team of about 200 people, and the movement was very large, and they didn't want to hide their movements at all, which is why Mu Fa and the others could detect it so quickly.
"Yo, I guess who, it's you. "In front of the team, the leader was dressed in gray leather, which was not the skin of a land animal, but the skin of a fish and beast in the sea, more than half of which was shark skin, which was also the favorite skin of the black shark. There are also some dark red polished beads hanging around the neck, all of which are polished ornaments such as bone stones that can only be found in the sea.
This man's name is Haisha, and he is the current leader of the "Black Shark".
Mu Fa looked at the team behind Haisha, five giant oxen with bows and horns pulled wooden carts, the carts were full of goods, looking at the direction they came, they should have gone to Chaoqiu City to do a trade,
The movement of the five-headed arched bull is too great to hide if you want to. The bow-horned bull is a beast commonly used to pull carts in this area, and its body size is relatively large, and the double horns on its head are like open bows, and the horns are larger than those of other cows, and the horns are longer. They are easy to domesticate and have a docile temperament compared to other cattle, but they are just scary.
Looking at the goods on the five ox carts, the people of the black shark have gained a lot this time, and it is no wonder that they are in a good mood.
Seeing that Mu Felling didn't respond, Haisha was surprised in his heart, if it was in the past, the people of Changzhou would have already lost their faces, even if they didn't move their hands and didn't speak, they would have to snort coldly, but now, all the people in Changzhou seemed to ignore them.
However, it doesn't matter if you don't say anything, there are not many people who see Changzhou, Haisha's rough face shows a little cunning, and he looks at a few people around him a little, exchanging colors with each other, and they all see that the other party also intends to teach these people in Changzhou a lesson this time.
Haisha's actions were not secretive, and he also knew that the people of Changzhou had seen it, and he wanted to see how angry they looked, but when Haisha looked over, he found that the expressions of the people in Changzhou were very strange, not like worry, but a little mocking.
A hint of surprise flashed across Haisha's eyes, and a sly smile with ill intentions narrowed slightly.
The reaction of the people in the long boat was very wrong.
can be the leader of the black shark, and can lead the entire black shark to rise quickly, Haisha is still very discerning. He gestured behind him, signaling the people in the group not to be impulsive for the time being.
In the face of their deliberate malice, why are the people of Changzhou still so calm? Where did they get the confidence?!
Just as he was wondering why, several birds flew through the air.
"Moo-"
The five-headed arched bull stomped on the big hooves of the millstone and cried out anxiously.
The people in the black shark team suddenly tensed up.
"Alert!"
"Someone's coming!"
There was no smile on his face, and he was full of seriousness, and his gaze was withdrawn from the air, looking at the woods behind Mu Felling and the others.
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and Haisha's ears moved, and he could tell that there were even footsteps of predators, and they should not be small.
Who?
Who is it?!
Click-click--
A series of broken branches quickly approached, a gray wolf paw stepped out of the woods, the wolf's back, much taller than a person, easily squeezed the surrounding trees, the wolf also bit a bleeding deer in its mouth, warm breath blew out from the blood-stained wolf teeth, and the surroundings seemed to be infected by the smell of blood.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Haisha found that the wolf was riding a man on his back.
And after that, there were about 20 people coming out of the woods one after another, one of them was still carrying a snake as thick as two people, the head of the snake had been cut off, and the snake bearer coiled up the snake body and tied it with rattan grass, and threw it to play, as if it was not a big snake but an ordinary straw rope. The body that was originally carrying the aura of killing because of hunting, after seeing Haisha and his party, he became a little more ferocious. It is different from the kind of wind and rain infecting killing ruthlessness that has been formed on the long-term boat people, but it is another, more like the fierce momentum brought out by the gathering place of the beasts in the deep mountains.
Being able to create a black shark and develop into a famous navigation organization in just ten years, Haisha's eyesight is still quite good, and it is precisely because of this that he is jealous and puzzled.
These people who just appeared, there are at least ten of them who can bring him an absolute threat, and this is just a casual glance at him, if he looks closely, he may be able to find more powerhouses who are better hidden.
Who are these people, where do they come from, and what is their relationship with the people of Longboat?
The more I thought about it, the more weird it felt, Haisha's pupils shrank, and his eyelids jumped. Whether it was the wolves that appeared, or these people, it made him feel dangerous. What made him even more nervous was that there were footsteps approaching one after another in the distance, and there were quite a few people, thousands!
Shao Xuan rode on Caesar's wolf's back, glanced at Haisha and his group, and then looked at the wood cut sitting on the stone, and asked, "Trouble?"
The sea sand stared at the woodcuts.
Mu Shu silently looked at the sea sand that was so nervous that his face was a little pale, and after a few seconds, he smiled, "No." ”
Haisha's face moved, and he pulled out a smile, and said to Mu Fa, "Since you still have something to do, then I won't say more." ”
Haisha quickly left with the people, and changed the original route and made a long detour.
Mu Shu has been watching them leave, in fact, it's not that he doesn't want to take this opportunity to attack Haisha, but if they attack the Black Shark's people this time, the Black Shark's people will definitely take advantage of the time they left to attack the Long Boat's stronghold, the Black Shark is very vindictive, and according to Mu Fell's understanding of the Black Shark, if they are let go this time, Haisha will definitely not take this opportunity to make trouble for the Long Boat's stronghold. Although he can't get used to Haisha, Haisha's style of acting still has a little merit.
Musha believed that Haisha, who had left in a hurry, understood what his last look meant. At the same time, Mu Fa also secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and sure enough, this time the decision to come with Yanjiao was right.
They are not alone, they can still find help, they can take advantage of the situation, at least for now, they and Yanjiao are in a mutually beneficial relationship.
Over there, Haisha ran away with people, and made sure that no one was chasing him, so he took a heavy breath, unwilling and happy.
It's good that I didn't do it just now!
"Chief, who are those people?" asked one of Haisha's side.
"How do I know!" Haisha said angrily, "it's definitely not from the longboat." ”
"I haven't seen it before, but which tribe is migrating?" someone speculated. In the past two years, there have often been some tribal migrations far from the city, and it is no wonder that he is so suspicious.
"No, it's not migration!" a figure floated gently like a leaf, standing in front of the sea sand. This is the person Haisha just sent out to inquire about the situation over there.
"What's going on?" Haisha asked.
The man didn't sell it, and said, "There will definitely be old, weak, sick and disabled people in the migration, but this team, there are no such people at all, both men and women in the team, they are all very healthy and strong, even if they seem to be thin, it makes me feel very dangerous." Thinking of a young man in the team with red patterns on his eyelids smiling at him, he only felt goosebumps coming out of his body, and the feeling of danger flashed by him, but fortunately the other party did not attack him.
"How many people are there?" Haisha asked again.
"That's a lot! about four or five thousand!"
When more than 200 people, including Haisha, heard this, they all gasped violently.
"That'...... Where did those people come from, and what was their purpose?", someone asked, in a state of crisis.
Haisha squinted in thought and looked in the direction of the sea.
"Could it be that the tribesmen from the other side of the sea?"
"How is that possible?!" someone exclaimed, but when you think of the boatmen's boats, it's not impossible to guess.
"However, I see that those people are not the same as the rumors. The one who came back from the inquiry was puzzled.
"Rumors?" Haisha scoffed, "Rumors can't be believed!"
When he saw the people of the Longboat tribe back then, Haisha didn't suspect the rumors he heard, but too many people said so, and they only saw people from this side passing by, and rarely saw people from that side coming, and when they transported people, they didn't find anything near the coast over there that made them move. Over time, Haisha came to the same opinion as everyone else, thinking that most of them were stupid barbarians who couldn't eat enough, used animal bones and horns as tools, and had never seen gold artifacts, and that the strength of the Longboat tribe was just a special case.
Now, however, he learned that the previous rumors were false!
There are so many exceptions?!
Yes, there may be a lot of ignorant barbarians over there who can't even get food, but they are definitely not as dominant as the rumors!
Perhaps, the reason why the people who crossed the sea from this land did not come back was not that they had found a new paradise, but that they had not returned.
Those who came back from the inquiry still remembered the scene they had seen, and the people who had just passed seemed to be doing well, whether it was their clothes, or the gems on their bodies, or the tools they had in their hands.
After being silent for a long time, Haisha said, "Don't touch the territory of the longboat recently, let your subordinates keep a distance from that side, just look at it from a distance, and don't set foot in the territory of the longboat." Also, pay attention to the movement of Chaoqiu Castle. (To be continued.) )
