Chapter 209: Mountain Barbarian

This time, Lorist and Reddy did not walk, but rode on two variegated Northland horses and were sandwiched between the group. Perhaps it was the house they had built in the stockade some time ago that shocked the mountain barbarians, so they treated them kindly, and the jerky that was given to Lorist and Reddy to satisfy their hunger during their rest was the same as everyone else's.

Wangshan ran a dead horse, this is true. The volcano in the shape of Mt. Fuji looked very close, but the team ran for most of the day to reach the foot of the volcano. After a large black pine forest, and two small hills, Lorist saw the destination of the group, and there was a very large walled city halfway up the mountain, and this walled city even had a circle of stone walls.

Seeing the arrival of the team of the Lord of the White Snow Mountain from a distance, the horn of three long and two short sounded on the city wall, and Ah Shu, who followed Lorist, said that this is the meaning of welcome, and this is the settlement of the Habi Baba tribe, yesterday the Qiang Basen of the Habi Baba tribe just came back with the army, and he couldn't wait to send someone to inform the Lord of the White Snow Mountain to meet him.

After entering the city, Lorist found that the layout of this walled city was very similar to the layout of the human city on the Gelinthia continent, like the houses on both sides of the street or stone walls, but the strange thing is that the roof is in the shape of a shack, which looks nondescript.

Ah Shu is a big mouth, and he quickly makes Lorist understand the origin of this walled city. It is said that a few decades ago there was a young warrior in Habi Baba who wanted to see the outside world, and he wanted to know how those flatland people lived. So he left the tribe. Embark on a journey to explore the world.

It's just that the outside world is very cruel. The young warrior was captured when he arrived in the world of the Flatlanders. As a slave, he continued to build houses and cities for the flatlanders, and worked for more than forty years, until he was abandoned in the wilderness after being old and sick. But he survived, begging all the way back to the Habi Baba tribe where he was born.

The former mountain barbarian warrior regretted the absurdity of his youth, and he regretted that he had not contributed to the tribe that gave birth to him and raised him. So he decided to use the architectural experience he had learned from more than 40 years of being a slave outside the country to build a great city for the Habi Baba tribe. But unfortunately, when he built the palace and halfway through the city, he finally returned to the embrace of the mountain god due to aging. Without the guidance of this brilliant mountain barbarian architect. The mountain barbarians who built the stone walls took it upon themselves to build roofs of various styles, which became what Lorist sees now.

Ah Shu proudly said that this city was named after the outstanding mountain architect, called Baribak City.

Lorist had no love for the name of the walled city, and he was curious about what the palace was like that Shu was talking about. I didn't expect this mountain barbarian tribe to build a royal palace.

After more than half an hour, the palace appeared in front of Lorist's eyes.

"Flutter" Lorist couldn't hold back a laugh. Is this a royal palace, this is clearly a public canteen and labor quarters built on a construction site. The only difference is that the wooden house in the middle is twice as large as those public canteens.

It was a steeple log house made of logs, and huge logs cut from the Black Forest had been driven deep into the ground to form a large square shape. The roof is made of logs in the shape of a herringbone roof, and the large house is flanked by a long row of wooden sheds and log houses. It's like a canteen at a construction site, flanked by wooden sheds where laborers sleep. The only difference is that the houses are made of logs, and the construction site is reluctant to use such good logs for labor.

Ah Shu frowned beside him and said, "What are you laughing at, the palace has arrived, be serious......"

Lorist gave himself a mouthful, and then stopped the smile on his face. It's too cola, this is the palace of the mountain barbarian tribe, and this time it's a long experience.

The white snow mountain lord in front got off his horse, turned around and ordered a few followers, and finally pointed to Lorist and Reddy, and said a few words to Ah Shu, to the effect that he and another attendant followed her and escorted Lorist and the two inside.

Sure enough, it was the layout of the cafeteria, and before I entered the door, I heard a lively and noisy sound coming from inside. Entering to see that it is indeed a big canteen, the house is very large, except for a two-meter-wide aisle between them, there are four rows of log long tables on both sides, there are more than 20 people sitting on both sides of each table, the table is full of barbecued meat and fruits and mountain kudzu, the whole room is estimated to have more than 200 people eating and drinking, and some are going crazy with alcohol, either pestering the mountain barbarian women who deliver wine and food, or standing on the log table singing loudly, dancing barefoot. Lorist even saw a few rough mountain barbarian men squirming in the corner according to a few mountain barbarian women......

The aisle was long, and at the end was a high platform with three steps, on which was placed a large table, also full of food. Behind the table sat a majestic man like a lion, with a lion's nose and a wide mouth, and he was looking at the farce below with a lazy expression, smiling from time to time and pouring wine into his mouth with a silver cup.

Seeing the Lord of the White Snow Mountain passing, the big man's face showed a rare smile of kindness and love, hahaha laughed, the laughter in this canteen, oh is the rumbling echo in the palace, and it suppressed those yelling songs: "Oh, my baby, the most beautiful flower of Huoling Mountain, the pearl of Baixue Mountain is finally here, hahaha, come here, let your father see if my lark is doing well......"

The lord of the White Snow Mountain said coquettishly: "Abba, why are you so loud again, it's scared to death." ”

Saying that, he walked over and threw himself into the arms of the big man: "Why has Abba been there for so long this time, I haven't seen you for almost a year......"

The big man patted the shoulder of the white snow mountain lord lovingly: "My little princess, it's not that your father doesn't want to come back early, but the old mountain lion in Bilulu refuses to admit defeat, if it wasn't for the snow, your father would have to dig out the old mountain lion's nest." This is to spare that old guy's life first, and if you are not honest, your father will beat him up again next summer. Ha ha...... By the way, your father has found you a good husband this time. My lark has grown up. It's time to get married. Alec. You come here. ”

Dahan shouted at the long table on the left, a tall and majestic mountain barbarian young man stood up, strode in front of Dahan and the White Snow Mountain Lord, crossed his hands on his chest, and bowed to the White Snow Mountain Lord: "I have long admired the name of the White Snow Mountain Lord, Alec admires it very much, may Kupavisen protect you, the most beautiful moon in my heart......"

The Lord of the White Snow Mountain looked at this Alec curiously. Then he bowed his head shyly under the gaze of Arik's admiring eyes.

The big man laughed: "My lark, Alekke is very famous, he is already the leader of the Embri tribe at a young age, and he is also a mountain spirit with ten rings of the Ulle, if he hadn't led three hundred Ulles to break through the encirclement of the old mountain lion, your Abba might have fallen into the trap of the old mountain lion and couldn't come back." So I'm going to bring him back to meet you, and you're going to have to show him our mountains and forests, cattle and sheep these days, understand?"

The white snow mountain lord's face turned red, and the big man said that she should take Alik to see the mountains and forests and the cattle and sheep, which almost meant to show how much her dowry was, if nothing else. Her marriage to this Alec was decided.

"Uh, who are those two?" the big man saw Lorist and Reddy surrounded in the middle by the four Snow Mountain Lords' retinue.

"Abba, they're the flatland slaves I caught. You see, it's his badge. The Snow Mountain Lord handed over Lorist's Dawn Academy badge and the gold teaching badge while peeking at the Alec, obviously feeling that he had caught Lorlist's two faces.

Dahan laughed: "My baby, the people of Pingdi are very cunning, don't be fooled, bring them up and I'll ask." ”

The lord of the white snow mountain said: "Abba, this flatland man has some ability, he said that he is a teacher of architecture, and he can build a house, but the house he built is not as big as our palace, and it looks very strange, like a spire mountain. ”

Lorist and Reddy were brought forward, and the big man stared at Lorist while playing with the two badges, like a beast about to pounce: "Tell me where you came from...... Grace ......"

Lorist stepped forward, bowed first, and then repeated the lie that he had fabricated that he was the golden teacher of the architecture major of Dawn Academy, was chased and killed by the enemy, was seriously injured and fell into the water and was rescued by the Lord of the White Snow Mountain, and found the acolyte student who had become a fool and a mute, etc......

Dahan interrupted him: "What is the teaching of architecture?"

"Uh, dear Jan Bason, teaching architecture isn't a thing, no. What the hell, it's not right, it's awkward. It should be said that I am the one who teaches others how to build a house......" Lorist didn't know how to answer Dahan's question, and finally gave an explanation.

The big man laughed contemptuously: "You teach others to build houses, are you worthy, who will believe you to teach others to build houses at such a young age? Also, how do you prove that you can teach others to build houses?"

The mountain barbarians are not good at this, they like to see is believing.

Lorist looked at the big man's table, there was a large pot of steamed kudzu, so he reached out and took it, poured the kudzu root on the table, and then turned the clay pot upside down and covered the table, picked up a dagger inserted in the barbecue next to it, and then picked up a few fruits and cut them into squares and put them on the chassis of the clay pot, and then picked up the steamed kudzu root and peeled it off, gently pinched it into a puree, and then pasted it on the fruit squares, and soon, a small white castle was formed.

The big man, the white snow mountain lord and the mountain barbarian young man Alec were all dumbfounded, and watched as Lorist took the dagger and fiddled there for a long time, and a small white castle appeared on the chassis of the clay pot.

Lorist put down the dagger, took a few steps back, and bowed again: "Dear Qiangbasen, this is how I teach people to build houses......"

The big man touched his head, looked at the model of the castle made of mountain kudzu clay on the table, and then looked at Lorist, not knowing how to speak for a moment. Just now I said how Lorist could teach people to build houses at such a young age, but the fact that this kid quickly made a beautiful little castle was like a slap in the face. But it was the Lord of the White Snow Mountain who relieved his father's embarrassment: "Yes, this castle is very beautiful, can we also build such a castle?"

Lorist nodded: "Respected mountain lord, of course you can build it if you want to, but it will take a long time and a lot of manpower and material resources, and you also need some materials that are only available on the side of the flatlanders......"

"How long will it take?" asked the Snow Mountain Lord.

"On your terms here. I estimate that it will take three or four years and more than 10,000 laborers. Lorist deliberately exaggerated.

The White Snow Mountain Lord furrowed his good-looking eyebrows: "It's going to take so long." That's still it. I ask you. How much time and manpower does it take to build a palace like Abba?"

Lorist replied: "This one is fast, three months, a thousand manpower." However, Venerable Mountain Lord, now is not the time to build a house, and the construction will not start until the summer, and snow and rain will not work. ”

Dahan slapped his thigh next to him: "When I was a child, it took Barry Buck to build this palace for my father for more than a year, since you kid said something similar to him, he should be considered a little capable, so that's it." In the summer of next year, you will build such a palace for my lark, which will be used as a new house for her and Alec, and it will be decided. ”

The lord of the white snow mountain pulled the big man to play coquettishly, the big man laughed, waved his hand, and Lorist and Reddy were taken down.

For the next five or six days, Lorist and Reddy were locked up in a small dilapidated stone house, and Ah Shu came to see them a few times. According to Ah Shu, in the past few days, the lord of Baixue Mountain has been accompanying the mountain barbarian young man Alik to see what mountains and forests, cattle and sheep, and the relationship between the two has increased rapidly, and they are already inseparable. In a few days, Alec would leave for his tribe. By next year, he will bring his clan here and merge with the White Snow Clan to form a new clan, and then the White Snow Mountain Lord will marry him.

Lorist listened to Ah Shu say these words with a faint sense of loss. It is obvious that the playmate who grew up together is getting married, but the groom is not him. Envy, jealousy and hatred are inevitable, but compared to that Alec, his Ulle with the four rings of the mountain spirit is really inconspicuous, this is a realistic story of a poor sling and a rich and handsome.

After another two days, the snow began to fall from the sky, and the cold winter finally came. Lorist and Reddy are taken out of the small stone house by Ah Shu and told them that they are going back to the Snow Tribe today. Ah Shu and a few of his entourage took Lorist and the others to a high ground outside the city, where hundreds of people gathered. Ah Shu said that these people were all sent by the Baixue tribe to follow Qiangbasen to fight, and they will also go back to the tribe today. Now the Lord of the White Snow Mountain is saying goodbye to Alec, and when he sends Alec away, they will return to the tribe immediately.

Lorist soon saw the two figures snuggling and hugging each other, and the Snow Mountain Lord was hugging the Alec tightly, as if they were parting with life and death. After waiting for most of the day, the Alek finally got on his horse and went away with his entourage, and the Lord of the White Snow Mountain still stood on the high ground and kept waving, until there was no trace of Alec and the others......

On the way back, the lord of the snowy mountain suddenly summoned Lorist to his horse, and kept asking him about the construction of the palace next year, until Lorist repeatedly promised to build her a bigger and better canteen than her father, oh no, it was the queen of the palace, and the lord of the snowy mountain let Lorist go with satisfaction.

Lorist complained in her heart: This girl seems to be eager to marry herself. I can't wait to start building a canteen as a new house in winter, how anxious is this......

Back in the village, Lorest discovers that the hunchbacked mountain barbarian old man has taken possession of the wooden house he and Reddy have worked so hard to build. When Ah Shu saw it, he reported to the lord of Baixue Mountain, so the hunchbacked mountain barbarian old man was pulled out and whipped up. Ah Shu said to Lorist that in the tribe, it is an unforgivable sin to steal the fruits of other people's labor without the consent of the chief, but it is a pity that Lorist is a slave, otherwise this hunchbacked mountain barbarian old man can be reduced to a slave for Lorist......

Finally stopped, Lorist closed the door to the cabin, and the next three months of winter were to heal his injuries, cure Reddy's amnesia, and return to the family domain......

...... (To be continued.) )

PS: I'm sorry, but what the protagonist experienced during this time when he fell into the mountain barbarian tribe is not that the author himself encountered something that caused him to be in a bad mood, nor that the author deliberately wrote against his book friends. In fact, the outline and details were formulated in detail in the first two years, and the author only wrote them down chapter by chapter according to the outline.

This is the only time the protagonist has personally dealt with the mountain barbarians, unlike other novels, the protagonist worships as soon as he arrives at those tribes, and sends a beautiful woman to the princess to the protagonist. For the protagonist, his experience this time is not very good, just happened to meet a group of men who went out to fight for almost a year of sturdy mountain women, the protagonist is injured, unable to resist, and the result is just like the book friend said that he was wheeled with rice. This plot could have been skipped, but the author brought another plot to this experience portrayed by the protagonist, and eventually led to the protagonist's future policy towards the mountain barbarians, so it cannot be rewritten and ignored.

For many people, this is a poison, abandoning the book and not reading it is your choice, as the author is not forced. For me, it is my best effort to tell a good story and show the customs and customs of this strange world in the Galinthia continent, the swords and swords, and the long scroll of history that changes in front of everyone
