Chapter 13: The Celestial Wolf Department V

The house was built like an inn's firewood house, not very large, and there was a thick row of hay against the wall, which was more than enough for a few of us to shelter. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info but the house is a little dilapidated, full of dust, as soon as we enter the door, the smell of rotten wood comes to the nose, it seems, it is true that no one has set foot for a long time.

When all of us entered the wooden house, the two wolf clansmen guarding the door covered the door, and Ato's people stood at the door and were still a little panicked, looking like they didn't know what to do. Ramru looked at the door, turned his head to look at me again, and said a short sentence, and Atto explained, "God, Ramru asks you, will they eat us?"

The word "eat" she said was a little creepy, and Hogg and the others also looked at me worriedly, and I smiled and said, "Don't worry, the patriarch of the Sky Wolf Clan has promised not to kill us, and we can leave here tomorrow." ”

Ato's eyes widened, and he said, "Really? Really let us go?"

I sat down in a relatively clean place by the campfire and said, "Yes, you tell Ramru not to worry, the Sky Wolf Clan has returned to the Great Song Dynasty, and our envoy is patrolling the Sky Wolf Clan at this time, and with him, our lives are saved." ”

If it weren't for Kangping, I wouldn't dare to say so surely.

Now that I think about it, although Nagu interceded for me in the end, I am afraid it was also because Kang Ping came to inspect the Heavenly Wolf Tribe this time. The Heavenly Wolf Clan is about to move to the Great Song Dynasty, and the matter of territorial division is still to be discussed between the imperial court and the Heavenly Wolf Clan.

Ato's voice seemed to be a little confused, and there was a look on her face that seemed to understand, probably she didn't understand why there was suddenly an extra messenger, but she still explained my words to Ramru and the others. When several people heard this, although they were as confused as Ato, their faces also eased slightly, and then they chose a place to sit down in the wooden house.

Aside from one of his clansmen who died on the way, Ramru was now left with six men, four of whom were wounded, and only Atto and Hogg were safe. Sitting by the campfire, the two of them took out the picked Gugu fruit from the small animal skin bag around their waists, crushed it on their fingertips, and dressed the wounds of Ramru and the others. This small yellow fruit is easy to crush, and when the peel is broken, the green juice flows out of it, and the fruit has been soaked in river water, and there is a lot of medicinal liquid that flows out. However, there were no dishes for the potion here, and Atto and Hogg crushed the fruit and could only smear it little by little on the wounds on Ramru's body.

Looking at the embarrassed appearance of Ramru and the others, I suddenly felt an indescribable gloom. The life of the tribes of the Western Regions is indeed extremely difficult in this land, and the Central Plains is not a little bit worse, it is too big, the harsh regional environment, the mountains and forests, insects and beasts, and the disputes between tribes, these things make people feel a headache when they think about it, and they cannot be compared with the Central Plains at all.

If the Western Regions can be as prosperous as the Central Plains, I don't know what Ramlu and Ato will become now. But if the Central Plains were as chaotic and backward as the Western Regions, what would I be like now?

Probably, he will be dressed like a flower like Ramru and live in a tribe's earthen village.

I couldn't help but laugh when I found out that I had this thought. It is impossible for the Western Regions to become the same as the Central Plains, and even if it becomes a prosperous place, I am afraid that it will be thousands of years later, and by that time, the Central Plains will probably be even more prosperous than it is now.

I reached under the campfire and picked at the charred black wood, and when I picked it up, the fire rose a few points higher, and a few sparks rose. At first, there was still some smell of rotten wood in the wooden house, but after being smoked by the fire for a while, the smell of rotten wood gradually faded a lot.

Ato was applying the potion of the Gugu fruit to an injured clansman, and when he saw me pick up the firewood like this, he moved his body and said, "God, I'll change the medicine for your arm." ”

She and Hogg didn't pick much of the goo fruit together, and it wasn't enough to crush it into juice for the four of Ramru, and now she only had a handful in her hand. Before I felt anything unusual in my right arm, I said, "No need, you can apply these medicines to Ramru and them first, and the people of the Celestial Wolf Clan will send them later." ”

Atto hesitated for a moment, then said, "Is your envoy a high-ranking official?"

I smiled wryly and said, "Sort of." ”

In fact, the forbidden army with a brass token on his body is not a big official, Qiu Wentian is also holding a copper token, but his real official position is just a small official from the ninth grade, Kang Ping can take out the copper token, it can only mean that his official position is at the same level as Qiu Wentian, but it is not inevitable. Chenzhou is located in the hinterland of the Central Plains, rare wars, relatively stable compared to the frontier, most of the forbidden army guarding the city is no different from passing the time, and the forbidden army guarding the frontier has much greater responsibilities, and the soldiers and horses are the elite of the forbidden army.

But such a petty official, here, can influence the life and death of a person or even a tribe.

I thought a little dazed, and my heart couldn't help but move, "Ato, why are the people of the Heavenly Wolf Clan chasing and killing you?"

Atto exhaled a long breath, and his back was very depressed, and said: "We often go there to hunt bears and collect medicine, because there are only black bears and goo fruits there, but one day they suddenly said that it was their place and refused to let us fight bears, so when they saw us, they killed us and ate our people." ”

It seems that there is still a dispute between the two tribes over the issue of territory. She had already said many times about the cannibalism of the Sky Wolf Tribe, and I couldn't help but ask, "Do they really eat people?"

"Otherwise, what do you think they are doing when they bring back the corpses of our people? One of our people escaped from them and saw it with his own eyes. ”

"Roast it on the fire and eat it?"

Atto sighed and didn't speak, but I could already guess what was going on in her mind.

Yes, when a man dies, he dies, and if he is thrown into the mountains. But why did the people of the Celestial Wolf Clan drag the dead body back?

Could it be that the people of the Sky Wolf Clan really eat people?

But now that they have returned to the imperial court, all aspects of the clan are approaching the Central Plains, no matter what, the imperial court will never move a cannibalistic tribe to the Central Plains, right? If this is the case, no one in the Great Song Dynasty will be in danger. Besides, now that Kangping is in the village, the Heavenly Wolf Clan will definitely not dare to do such an inhumane thing. If they do it, I'm afraid they don't want to move to the territory of the Great Song Dynasty and get the land, let alone get the official position of the imperial court.

I felt dizzy in my head, trying not to think about such things anymore, eating people or not, it would have nothing to do with me anyway. When I leave this place tomorrow, it will also be when I leave Ramru and Ato, and this is a matter between their tribes, and it has nothing to do with me.

But the more I thought about it, the more inexplicably I was worried about Ato, and I felt that I had violated something with this idea of not caring about myself, so that I didn't have the slightest peace of mind in my heart.

Just as he was thinking about it, the wooden door of the house was opened. I turned my head and saw Gerard striding in, followed by two flower-faced men wrapped in black animal skins, both of whom were carrying a large wooden basin in their hands.

Glar swept his gaze around, and finally put it on me, squeezed out a smile on his face, and said jerkyly: "This is the meat that our patriarch prepared for you, and I will give it to you to eat." ”
