Chapter 4 Rumors from the outside world

Entering the spring continent, everything recovers, and all living beings burst out with vitality like chicken blood. In fact, this continent was originally a nameless continent for mankind. Since the human race fled from Catland and came from this strange region, after tens of thousands of years of development, it has finally gained a foothold.

In the beginning, humans called this continent the Nameless Continent. Later, in order to commemorate and cherish the memory of Catland, people named the nameless continent Tengchong Continent, which means that they hope that human beings will rise up on this strange continent.

Hardship was the most important thing that brought this race together, and finally, humanity established a kingdom. Later, the dispute over materials and the struggle for power, finally four kingdoms stood out, namely Ouyang Kingdom, Wu Kingdom, Miluo Kingdom, Tang Kingdom, and the four kingdoms were involved with each other, Ouyang Country was the most powerful, and Wu Country was the most low-key, but it was also the least to provoke. In these kingdoms, there are countless large and small families, which are not to be underestimated. Only some ancient tribes, like the Yao tribe, were sworn by their ancestors and lived in seclusion.

And the 100,000 mountains where the Yao tribe lives in seclusion can be described as a Jedi, and outsiders rarely come. Of course, there are not many tribes like the Yao tribe that have strong strength and dare to live on the edge of the fierce land.

Today, in a big house of the Yao tribe, everyone gathered. This house is the meeting place of the tribe, the four corners of the roof of the house, carved with four fierce gods and evil lifelike beasts, the east green dragon, the west white tiger, the south vermilion bird, the north Xuanwu.

In the house, the patriarch Kacha, who was dressed in an ink-colored robe, was sitting on the chair of the Taishi in the middle of the house, and he squinted his eyes slightly, looking at the three young people standing in the main hall.

Most of the three young people are around 25 years old, and all three of them are uniformly dressed, all of them are ink-colored short sleeves, white and red cuffs, and they stand in a row, giving people an awkward feeling. The one on the left has a black beard, eyes like a bull, and is tall, carrying a large knife about one and a half meters long on his waist; the man in the middle is handsome, even-shaped, with a shallow smile, and carrying two swords behind his back; the one on the right is short, with a pointed face, and the whole face is asymmetrical, extremely ugly, with a jet-black curved bow hanging from his body, and a quiver tied to his left waist.

The whole hall was watching them, no one would underestimate them, and no one would dare to underestimate them. Their fame is written in blood and measured by their achievements.

It turned out that these three people, the big man on the left called the knife man, was born with divine power, and the big knife he made was **ten catties. Once, he was besieged by three adult white tigers with patterns, and cut down two of them with one knife, and the last one was caught by him and retreated, throwing it towards the stone mountain, and his brain was splashed. Even, in a lonely trip to the mountains, I encountered a hydra recorded in historical records, a person and a snake started to fight, and the hydra was hit hard by him after cutting off three heads, and he was swept by the snake's tail, and after flying dozens of meters, he fled under the hydra.

The handsome young man in the middle, known as the sword ghost, is good at body skills and sword wielding. His sword is ruthless and accurate, and his body style is no less than that of a flying leopard. With a sword and a strange and brisk body, the swordsman left in a dashing manner surrounded by wolves and beasts. He is recognized as the toughest warrior to deal with. Everyone says that when you meet a sword ghost, you meet a ghost!

The short and ugly man on the right, who is withdrawn and not good at words, is a legend in the Yao tribe. Normally, it's hard to be a great warrior like that, but he did. He is different from ordinary archers, he has a large left hand and uses his left hand to draw the bow. Ever since he was fifteen years old, no creature had escaped his arrows. By the time he was twenty years old, within three hundred meters, he had become a Jedi alone, and three arrows were fired at once, arcing the arrow path, making him the first person in the entire Yao tribe to fight far away. The crowd called him a bowface.

"Swordsman, sword ghost, bow face, go out this time, what do you gain, talk to everyone. After a moment of silence, the old patriarch tapped on the armrest of the Taishi's chair and asked.

The three of them glanced at each other, bow-faced bowed his head to straighten his quiver, and the swordman grinned and said, "Let's let the sword ghost guy say it, he will say, we are with the bow-faced rough man." After saying that, he looked at the sword ghost and smirked a little gloatingly.

"The sword ghost, you can tell me. The patriarch looked up and said.

"Well, we went out this time, and we felt that something was wrong, there was a strange sound coming from the depths of Nanban recently, and the ghost cried intermittently, sometimes laughing wildly, sometimes crying bitterly. In short, the sky screen is full of weirdness. Some sorcerers predicted that the sky screen would be broken by the erosion of the wind, rain, thunder and lightning of the years, and more vicious demons and demons would be born. Therefore, now the creatures and humans on the edge of the southern barbarians have fled. I wonder if the wizards of my clan have seen a glimpse or two?"

"In addition, the Ouyang State launched a war against the Tang State, and in the Red Clay Plain, the millions of troops of the Ouyang State and the Tang Kingdom fought to the death, and the Tang Kingdom suffered heavy casualties, and the entire Red Clay Plain was full of blood, and the yin air covered the sky. Now, the Tang Kingdom has signed an alliance with the Miluo Kingdom, preparing to jointly resist the army of the Ouyang Kingdom. ”

"Have these bastards forgotten the lessons of history so quickly?" said an old man angrily.

"What about the Witch Country?" the patriarch seemed indifferent, his twitching facial muscles looking expressionless.

"We took the clan talisman and met with the great wizard senior in the palace of the Witch Kingdom, and he said that the Witch Kingdom wants to protect himself and does not want to participate in the disputes of other countries. Regarding the great changes in Nanban, he kept silent. ”

"Oh, everything you've purchased went well, right?" asked the patriarch after a moment of silence.

"Well, no problem... That one... Patriarch, we rescued a woman on the way. Take her ...... Brought to the tribe, I don't know..."The sword ghost asked cautiously.

"What?" said an old woman with a girded waist, "Don't you know that the tribe does not allow outsiders to come in without permission?"

"Yes, you are too bold to be reckless, how is this good?" said the old men.

Patriarch Kacha frowned and looked at the chaotic hall.

"Elders and seniors listen to me. The sword ghost hurriedly said: "Her people were wiped out, one person was hunted down, and she fled to the 100,000 deep mountains, we can't see death without saving us? And at that time, we were already in the deep mountains, and we couldn't let him return, even if we took her back, how would she be good alone? We couldn't leave her alone in the mountains, and she alone would be eaten by wild beasts sooner or later." So, we had to bring her back. ”

"Our ancestors warned us not to be unkind, not to abandon our kind, not to be afraid of hardship"

"yes, that's it, we can't be so ruthless. The knife man scratched his head and looked around unnaturally. Bow Face didn't say a word, just nodded.

"Have you forgotten that woman from hundreds of years ago?" said the old woman with a cold face.

There was silence.

How could they forget?

At the beginning, the Yao tribe was still in contact with the outside world, but unexpectedly, once a hunting team from outside entered the deep mountains and was surrounded by wild beasts, suffering heavy casualties, and the warriors of the Yao tribe saved a woman. And this woman is the daughter of a big family, and after she returned to the family, she framed the Yao tribe for a way to control wild beasts and attack them, and also told her family that the Yao tribe had all kinds of precious herbs and witchcraft. As a result, this family led 3,000 warriors and three wizards to invade the Yao tribe, only to be wiped out in the jungle by the Yao tribe. The family did not give up and poked out the news, and more and more families participated. In the end, this incident made the wizards of the Yao tribe extremely angry, and they walked out of the Yao tribe and placed a vicious curse on the passage of the 100,000 mountains.

Finally, the major families no longer dared to invade the 100,000 Great Mountains.

"Bring her in. The patriarch still had the same calm expression.

After a while, a woman of about 18 years old walked into the lobby, dressed in a gold-rimmed white dress, tattered in many places, and her long messy hair covering half of her face. However, it is difficult to hide her slender figure and an inviolable noble temperament.

For a moment, the crowd did not know how to speak, some were surprised, some were afraid.

"Ahem, what is the girl's name?" the old patriarch asked, staring at the woman standing calmly in front of him,

"Hello patriarch, hello elders, the little girl's name is Yalai, born in a small family, a few months ago, the family suffered misfortune, I was protected and fled, chased and killed for two months. Fortunately, he was rescued by his three brothers. Yalai was grateful to his three brothers for saving their lives. The woman looked at the patriarch Kacha and said.

After finishing speaking, he lowered his head and hid his face, as if wiping away tears.

Then he looked up and continued: "Patriarch Wang takes Yalai in, and Yalai will be grateful. ”

"What do you think?" asked the patriarch, looking around at the elders present.

Everyone, you take a bite and I take a bite, most of them are in favor of sending the Yao tribe away, and they don't want to let the Yao tribe and the outside world have grievances.

"Miss Yalai, I can't keep you, but my tribe is not ruthless, and I will send someone to send you out of this place. The patriarch sighed and said.

"Then Yalai thanks the patriarch and the elders. Jalai bowed deeply to the crowd and turned to leave the main hall.

"The world is impermanent, the troubled times are ancient, and you can't escape the world if you don't come out, so stay girl. The voice came from outside the door, and it seemed to ring in the main hall, and it seemed to ring in everyone's ears. In the backlight, an old man with a hunched back walked in.

"Hello Luo. The patriarch was the first to react, stood up and bowed slightly to the door, and then everyone also bowed to the old man outside the door, with strange expressions, fearful, and puzzled.

Everyone thought to themselves: "This old man usually lives in the ancestral hall and rarely comes to the assembly hall, why did he suddenly come here today?"

"Girl, you can stay, come with me, old man, I have a vacant room over there. Luo Zhen said to Jalai, ignoring the patriarch and the elders.

Yalai looked at the patriarch Kacha hesitantly, not knowing what to do.

"Since Luo Lao took you in, you can stay. The patriarch was also surprised by the old man's temper, and said helplessly.

"Thank you Patriarch and Luo Lao for taking you in. Jarai bowed again and thanked them, then nodded and smiled at the swordmen, sword ghosts, and bowfaces, thanking them for saving their lives.

Watching Lao Ji and Yalai walk out, except for the swordsman, the sword ghost and the bow face, as well as a few young people with long mouths, they couldn't understand when the old man in charge of the ancestral hall was so unfathomable and cold, everyone else smiled helplessly, shook their heads and began to disperse.
