The presence of Thun has had a cascading effect. On the one hand, the closest tribes to the wolf lord took the initiative to show a posture of not participating in the heir issue, which disappointed those who originally hoped that they could stand up and maintain order, and many people who were no longer optimistic about the next situation began to carefully pack their things, preparing to leave temporarily before the turmoil subsided.

Although this is the largest bazaar in this grassland, there are many business opportunities, but no matter how many business opportunities there are, there is still an order in the bazaar that can protect the safety of merchants and goods, if civil strife starts, no one will stand up to protect these people, and they will even become the target of robbery immediately.

On the other hand, the wolves of the steppe smelled of opportunity, and some robbers or people who wanted to make a quick buck quietly lurked around the tribe, waiting for these panicked merchants to escape from the shadow of their shelterers with the softness they had earned. But these robbers also have to be wary of another group of people, because what they want to loot is not the little wealth of the merchants in the bazaar, but the inheritance of the wolf master. These people are the tribes and forces that have bet on the struggle for succession.

"There are two more groups of people today, and it doesn't look like they're together. I think in two days, the hills around this place will be almost full, and we will have no place to go out and run our horses. Batu complained as he hung the harness back on the wall of the yurt.

He and Lothar's mounts were both newly tamed wild horses, which had been fine when they had trekked in the wilderness, but now that the group had lived here temporarily, where could the two horses endure being tethered to a stake from morning till night?

"You're going to run your horses, and they're going to enclose you and not let you pass?" Kailas opened one eye, this cat goblin really looked like a cat in the last few days, except for eating, drinking, and basking in the sun every day, sleeping, and if it weren't for the occasional bickering with Batuu, several people would almost forget that he was a cat goblin. However, Cheese and Lothar still know, don't look at Kailas who is lazy and lazy during the day, whenever everyone sleeps at night, it is this black cat who guards their safety, and will also use the advantage of appearance to find out information about places that cannot be entered during the day.

"Batu is right. Before the falconer could retort to Kailas, the Count took the initiative, "By the time we passed through several tribes, their watchmen had even raised their bows, and it was not impossible for us to be targeted if we came any closer. I think it's getting more and more unsafe here, and it's not surprising that there will be a fight one day. ”

"No, it won't. Nuisa is clear that, like Kailas, she's noticeably less out of the house. On the other hand, the man who manages the yurt often gives her some notes. This is not difficult to understand, although the man was reluctant to help her directly, but after the death of the intelligence merchant, it is difficult to say that he will not be affected by the information merchant's station, and Nuisa only used a few words to convince the other party to completely fall to her. And it turned out that when the intelligence merchant was collecting information, the innkeeper did not turn a deaf ear, he silently wrote down a lot of information sources, although not as fast as the real businessman in screening and speed, but it was better than Nuisa to go out and investigate.

"Is it because of the fire summoning ceremony?" Cheese's eyes were calm, and some of the information received by the daughter of the wolf lord was told to them, and some of them were not. She didn't say it, and the mage didn't ask, but if it was about the safety of the team, even if he didn't want to go into this matter, he had to figure out when the conflict brewing in the tribe would erupt.

Nuisa nodded in confirmation of the mage's conjecture, "Everyone is patient now, full of hope and suffering. The priest is absolutely fair, because he only obeys the fire spirit, and everyone is waiting for the fire spirit to give its will. However, the will of the gods is only valid at that moment, whether the person who gets more can keep his property, and whether the person who gets less should question or even plunder the property of others, the fire spirit will not care about this, or if the infighting happens, that is also the meaning of the fire spirit. ”

"Doesn't that mean that the will of the gods you worship is the same as that of the gods? It just gives an excuse to the people who are going to fight, whether it is unjust or fair, and it is not these people who explain it in the end. Lothar said with some unpleasantness. The blue lion respects the rules very much, if the same situation is put on the blue lion and the fire spirit is replaced by the royal family, then the royal family's division of the property between the heirs of a nobleman will be absolute, some people may question it, but the way they question it is never to pull out their weapons and wipe off the necks of their brothers and sisters. Now Nuisa seems to say that although the people here pay lip service to the worship of the fire spirits, when it comes to real interests, they completely disregard the will of the so-called spirits, and even blame the cruelty of the spirits for the struggles it causes.

The Wolf Lord's daughter shook her head slightly, "No, it's different. Before the Spirit of Fire gave down his will, all men were acting according to tradition, and although they would fight, they would be measured. As long as they are willing to give up some of their possessions, no one will be able to kill them all. But the call of fire is different, which means that the gods will accept those who act according to their will. It will recognize him, and immediately, immediately, that person, it will be possible to inherit the title of father. for he is blessed by all spirits. ”

I was familiar with that. The Count raised an eyebrow, the tradition of the steppe had restricted the infighting between the offspring, but the intervention of the fire spirit had pushed the matter to the cruel side, which was similar to the unspeakable stories he knew of within the family. The difference is only that the competition within the knight noble family will only kill a few people, while the battle for the position of the wolf lord will kill many people.

"Did you see the flag of the Charle tribe again when you went to run the horses?" asked Cheese suddenly.

Lothar and Batu looked at each other, "We didn't pay much attention, and there are many tribes who haven't raised their flags, otherwise one can judge their position based on their position." ”

The mage pondered for a moment, and by the time they left Shale, the news of the wolf lord's death had already arrived, and counting the days, Shale's team would not be too far away from here now. So he looked at the lazy black cat, "Please go and help me tonight to see if the people from the Shale tribe are here." If you see them, go to Wuqi and tell him that I have something to ask him. ”
