Chapter 613: Knowing that Yanjiao was doing well, they were depressed
In addition to the Mang tribe and the Weiba tribe, several other tribes in the central part of the continent also set off one after another.
And when it comes to banquets, experienced tribes know that going to a banquet is also a competition, non-murderous contests are everywhere, not necessarily a direct competition of force, there are many ways to suppress the other party, such as clothing, such as accessories, such as tools, and so on.
In terms of clothing, each tribe has its own characteristics, not necessarily the skin of the beast or the silky silk fabric, for example, the Mang tribe prefers a kind of clothing made of plants similar to the color of bamboo, and the accessories are also carved from bamboo or jade, and the jade that symbolizes the status of the status is also different.
And this time, the people who came out of the Mang tribe all wore jade ornaments around their waists were all at the level of semi-ring or above, that is to say, this time the team of the Mang tribe was basically middle and high-level totem warriors, and their status was not low in the Mang tribe.
There are a lot of jade produced by the Mang tribe, and many people have imitated the shape of the jade ornaments hung by the Mang tribesmen, but the real Mang tribesmen, the jade ornaments on the body seem simple, but they are extremely special, there is no careful carving, but there are clear green lines like bamboo, this kind of jade is called Mang jade, it is the exclusive thing of the Mang tribesmen, even if other tribesmen obtain this kind of Mang jade through some means, they dare not take it out openly, because the Mang tribesmen will not allow it.
The people of the Weiba tribe, who are united with the Mang tribe, wore the famous silk clothes of their tribe, and for this trip to Yanhe, they all wore clothes that they were usually reluctant to wear, which showed their strength and could be compared with the people of other big tribes. It was a clash of tribal faces.
Most of the people of the Mang tribe rode horses, and there were also a few strange beasts, their fur was dark brown or black, as well as white, if Shao Xuan was here, he would definitely be very surprised to find it. The beasts ridden by several leaders of the Mang tribe team resemble pandas!
Most of the people of the Weiba tribe sit on big spiders, and those big spiders have different colors, long and short hair, thick and thin legs, and even the number of eyes is not necessarily the same. Some look like a hairball, while others look like they're made from a patchwork of bamboo poles that fly away when the wind blows.
These two tribes. Taking one out alone would be very eye-catching, and now that they are on their way together, it is even more eye-catching. Everywhere they passed, almost everyone who saw them would wonder, where were the people of the Mang tribe and the people of the Weiba tribe going? And they were still in such a formation? It didn't look like they were going to war, what was their purpose?
People who can't suppress their curiosity and are idle and panicked follow far behind. Want to find out. If you follow closely, you are worried about being recklessly and the people of the Weiba tribe, so you can only hang behind and follow from a certain distance.
From the middle to the other side of the Yan River. The distance is not close, and along the way, there are more and more curious people, and they dare not go up to ask, and the bold ones also join the tracking team.
The people of both tribes knew about this. It's just that they are not interested in paying attention to the people behind them, and they actually have the intention to bring more people over to watch the excitement, if the Yanjiao side is really not good, there can be more people to help publicize it.
In the hearts of most tribesmen. The most prosperous is definitely the central region, and the trading area is also the most prosperous and abundant in the central region, and people on the border of the mainland will travel thousands of miles to the trading area there to trade.
If it can be confirmed that the Yanhe Trading Area is just a small mess, even if the people of Yanjiao vigorously promote it in the future, no one will go over, saving their energy.
The people of the Mang tribe and the people of Weiba also met the people of the Longboat tribe on the way, but the people of the Longboat tribe all took boats, and the people on both sides only walked together for a short time, and then they separated again, and the waterway had a waterway line, and there was a shortcut on land.
"Can you sail over there in the Yanhe Trading Area?" After separating from the Longboat Tribe, some people from the Mang tribe wondered.
"Isn't it called the Yanhe Trading Area? There is a river that can naturally be used for boats. Renoha said with a frown. He didn't believe that Yanjiao would be able to gain a foothold in such a short period of time, and took a step back to say that even if Yanjiao could gain a firm foothold and start his life again, he didn't think that the Yanhe trading area that he had made would be better than the large trading areas in the middle.
Perhaps, everything is just a way for Yanjiao to brush up on its presence.
"I wonder if Yanjiao will take out all his family money this time?" someone laughed.
"It doesn't matter what those are doing, when the time comes, it will be the people of Yanjiao who will be troubled, we just have to let go of eating and drinking. "There are also people from the Weiba tribe who responded.
From the middle of the dense tribe, walking along the route, there are few people around, sometimes there is not a single outsider at the end of the day, and the surrounding soil is indeed not very good, especially far from the river, it seems quite barren, the soil is very hard, not suitable for planting, only some bare mountains with weeds nearby, and it is rare to see a tree that can bear fruit, and even if there is, most of them are low and sparse foliage. In such a place, it is no wonder that there are no tribes to live.
Desolate!
That's what everyone who passes through here thinks.
At this time, the people of the Mang tribe and the Weiba tribe couldn't help but feel proud in their hearts, their ancestors were really powerful, and the place they were looking for was good, and any place in their own territory was much better than here!
However, gradually, the terrain did not change significantly, but the landscape began to change, the surrounding trees gradually increased, taller, and denser, and the surrounding mountains were no longer monotonous weeds, but lush forests, the further you went, the denser the woods on the mountains became, even far from the water source, the mountains and forests were full of green vitality compared to before.
There were some active figures nearby, probably from some small tribe, hiding in the woods on the mountain.
"Doesn't seem like a good place?" Qu Ce casually ripped off the leaves on a bush, tore the leaves, and looked at the moisture in the leaves.
Although the soil may not be fertile, if you want to plant, you can barely plant some, not as much as the farmland in the central part of the country, but it can also sustain the livelihood of some small tribes.
Others disagreed. In their eyes, this place is far worse than the farmland of their own tribe.
"Chief. There are people on the mountain, who have followed us for a while, do you want to go over and test it?" asked the leader of the Mang tribe who led the team.
"Not necessarily. The leader of the Mang tribe raised his hand absently, and he did not look down on those of the small tribe, nor did he think that they would pose a threat to their ranks.
Next to the mountain forest. Abuli led the people and watched in shock as the procession passed through the valley.
"That'...... Who is that?" someone asked.
"How do I know?!" Abuli pulled the animal skin coat from his body a little anxiously and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Before coming, Abli spent two days selecting clothes, and finally chose an animal skin that had been exchanged from Yanjiao, and then asked his wife to sew it into clothing. In the Boiled Tribe, the only thing they could do was the fur they had obtained from Yanjiao before last winter.
The skin of a fierce beast is no more difficult to cut than the skin of a wild beast. One person was too inefficient, and Abuli's wife found a few more people to help. Abuli, his wife, and the witch of the Qi tribe, all three of them wore animal skin clothes to the Yanhe trading area.
However, at that time, the animal skins that Abli chose were all furs, with thick hair, not smooth or short fluffy leather, and now the weather. Winter has long passed, and it's really hot to wear it now. But Abuli can't help it, pick and choose, only these furs can be seen.
Originally, Abuli also planned to wear these clothes made of fierce beast skins to the Yanhe feast to show off, as far as he knew, many tribes in this generation had never seen fierce beast skins before.
But who expected. When I went to the Yanhe trading area, I saw the team that passed through the valley with luxurious equipment, and the other party was about to throw out the hundred rivers of their Tan tribe from their clothes and cars, and their momentum was far stronger than other tribes in this area, and the people of the Qi tribe were compared to them. It's just not enough to see. When they saw that team, they couldn't even think of robbing.
That must be the legendary powerful tribe from the Central Region, right?
There are people outside the people, and their vision of the people of the Qi tribe is still too small.
Under the blow, Abuli thought about it, took out a vine-woven bag on his back, untied it layer by layer, took out a few strings of crystal necklaces inside, and put them all around his neck. This is what he took with him when he left the tribe, and he originally thought about giving it as a gift and pretending to be a local tyrant, but now it seems that he still wears it first.
"Well, that's a lot better. Abuli looked at the shining crystal charm and nodded with satisfaction, and his self-confidence suddenly increased by several levels.
And the Mang tribe and the Weiba tribe who were in a hurry didn't know how much shadow the people who were peeping at them in the shadows had a big area of psychology.
As night fell, the team found a place to rest.
Beside the fire, the leader of the Mang tribe took out the map on the back of the invitation again, and looked at the two moons drawn at the top of the map, which were the banquet time given by Yanjiao. He looked at the size of the two moons, raised his hand and gestured between the two moons, and then looked at the sky.
The two moons in the night sky are similar in shape to those depicted on the skin scroll map.
"I can catch up. This is the conclusion reached by the leader of the Mang tribe.
"Well, we should be able to reach the Yanhe Trading Area tomorrow. Renoha said.
The place where they were, looking at the general terrain, the distribution of the mountains and the location of the rivers, could correspond to the location on the map, and it was very close to the destination marked on the map of the beast skin scroll with the flaming double-horned pattern, and they could reach it before the time given by the horn of fire.
"I don't know what kind of food Yanjiao has prepared? Could it be that they really prepared a lot of beast meat?" Qu Ce looked at a beast roasting on the fire, feeling even hungrier.
"Who knows?" a warrior from the Weiba tribe yawned, they all regretted coming with the team, not to mention the distance, if Yanjiao prepared some strange food, would they eat it or not? I heard that the food in many remote places is very weird, I don't know how those savage Yanjiao people will prepare.
"Well, what do you want to do so much, you'll know tomorrow. ”
"Yes. ”
In the darkness of the night, the continuous march gradually fell silent, surrounded only by the crackling of firewood and the snoring of a few beasts acting as mounts.
The next day, the team set out again, and just as they had expected, near noon, they saw a clear artificially carved flat road. There is also a stone monument erected on the side of the road, on which is written "Yanhe Trading Area", and an arrow is marked under the word. The arrow points in the direction of the road extension.
"Oh, that's interesting. Qu Ce said.
"Keep going. The leader of the Mang tribe raised his hand and pointed to the front of the road.
There are eyes around to pay attention to this side, it should be the person of Yanjiao.
The road is wide and well-beaten, so even if a giant beast walks on it, it can walk smoothly.
It didn't take long to walk along the road. There was a sudden exclamation in the ranks.
"Look, what's that?!"
The people in the group looked ahead, and in the distance, above the trees, a tall stone house stood there, exceeding the height of the trees. Because most of the trees in front of the road had been cut down, there were no obstacles, and they could clearly see the gray and white building with its "head" exposed.
Shortly farther on, a wall appeared in front of them.
Stone walls are not uncommon for them. However, the paintings painted on the walls shook the spirits of all of them.
It's not that the painting on it is terrifying, but the style and color of the painting have a great impact on people's vision.
In the midst of the green mountains and forests, the sudden appearance of colors attracts a lot of attention.
Unlike the walls in many places, the walls on the Flamehorn side are smoother. The stones that protruded from the walls were cut off and the recesses were filled. So the wall has become a good drawing board, and the paintings on it appear more delicate and have more variations.
There are many people on the paintings on the outer walls, because of the collective stylization of the strong tribal mentality, so that most of the tribes today have the same painting style. That is, when drawing people, the shape of the figure omits the figurative personality beauty, but at the same time, it produces and strengthens the overall impact, especially in the painting for the outside to see, this characteristic is particularly obvious.
The Mang tribe and the Weiba tribe are such large tribesmen. It can be said that they are well-informed, and ordinary paintings do not surprise them so much, but the paintings on the walls in front of them give them a different feeling.
The dark brown paint depicts the land, and there are some people in a procession on it, although the faces of the figures in the painting are basically the same due to the collective stylization, but there are still slight differences in clothing and weapons in their hands, stone rope ropes, knives, spears, axes, and clubs, and some strange tools, like broken knives, which they have never seen before.
The posture of the people lined up on the picture is solemn, set off with the flame-like streamline, with a specific rhythm and rendering sense, because of the smoother wall, so that the painting technique has more place to be displayed, the lines of the painting have also changed in rigidity and softness, and the full color filling, it appears more vivid, and some paintings are also decorated with rare gold pigments to outline the lines or fill. Some of the plants painted are painted in gold and purple, but most of the people who see them don't know them.
In other tribes, paintings of different thicknesses will look jerky, but here, because of the combination of points, lines, and planes, there is more beauty, smooth, delicate, and wild in the tribal style.
These are just a few of the paintings, and there are many more to come, and between each two groups of paintings, they are separated by some red flame-like ornaments, and there are obvious double-cornered patterns in the flames, and the flame ornaments that connect the group of paintings appear natural in the connection with each group of paintings, and the curved spirals and arcs of the flame body are combined together, giving a sense of flow, which can be smoothly placed between each group of paintings.
Not only figure paintings, but also fierce beast paintings, all kinds of hideous beast forms that have never been seen before, with primitive tribal style paintings, presented on the wall, coupled with the matching of lines and ornaments, the impact of colors, and the deformation and exaggeration of the technique, so that people who see it at the first glance, can not help but have a sense of fear.
On the gray and white walls, the combination of large paintings and colors, against the backdrop of the surrounding green mountains and clear waters, gives people more and more obvious visual conflicts, it can be said that everyone who has just arrived here is deeply impressed by the paintings on those walls.
Most of these paintings were made by Shao Xuan, of course, Shao Xuan could paint more detailed and complex, more vivid, but that would be beyond the scope of acceptance of this period. Here, the mainstream is this primitive tribal style, a little more than that, that's called improvement, it's called innovation. But if the style is completely changed all of a sudden, and it is completely out of the mainstream and acceptance range of this period, then it will not work, not to mention that people from other tribes can't appreciate it, even if people from the Yanjiao tribe see it, they will feel abrupt, and even feel that Shao Xuan's aesthetic deformity is deformed.
The result was also as Shao Xuan expected, and the people in Yanjiao were very satisfied with the final result on the wall.
The outsiders who have come one after another in the past few days will stop and stay when they see these, including the Mang tribe and the Weiba tribe team at this time.
"What kind of tree is this?"
"I don't know"
"What about that?"
"I haven't seen it. ”
"And that one...... Oh, I know that one over there, that's the crop that Flame Horn found before, what's it called?"
"Cabbage?"
"Yes, yes, that's the cabbage! When we went to the murderer's mountain forest that winter, we saw Yanjiao planting!"
The warriors of the Mang tribe and the Weiba tribe in the team pointed at those drawings and discussed.
At the front of the team, the leaders of the Mang tribe and the Weiba tribe were in a complicated mood when they looked at the high walls in front of them and the taller landmark-like stone buildings in the center of the trading area.
This is the new habitat that Yanjiao has found?
This is the so-called "Yanhe Trading Area" established by Yanjiao?
It seems, as if, should ...... It was different from what they expected.
What do you mean by that?
I was relieved to know that you weren't doing well. In the same way, knowing that Yanjiao is doing well, they are depressed.
Can you build a place like this, and live a bad life? (To be continued.) )
