Chapter 45 The Wine Banquet

After a deliberate evasion, the dumb man accepted their invitation.

Manshan and Manchuan were strong and strong, and the only skin injuries left after the toxin was expelled were not enough to worry about their teeth, and after a short rest, the two regained their strength.

Seeing that the sun was setting in the west, everyone discussed and hurried back to the tribe.

Before leaving, after obtaining the consent of the dumb uncle, Manchuan picked up the body of the sawtooth armadillo and carried it on his shoulder, ready to take it back, while Manshan was responsible for holding the unconscious young patriarch.

Lin Yuan and the others followed behind them, and walked towards the inside of the dense forest without hurrying. The ancient trees are towering, blocking all the light from the outside, and it looks very quiet. From time to time, you can also encounter a "buzzing" hornet colony, which makes people's scalp tingling.

These hornets are about two or three times larger than ordinary bees in the outside world, although they are not alien beasts, but they are superior in number, if they are swarmed up, their power should not be underestimated, and even the alien beasts can usually only avoid their edge.

"Beep!"

Miraculously, whenever Manchuan puts a thin tube in his mouth and blows it, it always drives away the hornet colony. It turns out that these hornets are specially bred by their tribe, so that they can obtain the honey they collect regularly, and secondly, they can be used as bee walls to defend against foreign enemies.

After a few hundred steps, the village gradually came to the fore. At a cursory glance, they are generally bungalows, next to each other. Smoke curled from the cooking, and families must have been busy preparing dinner.

The men gathered in a circle to listen to the instructions of a burly middle-aged man at the front of the procession, and after a while, they took their orders and dispersed.

I saw them drag up a wide curtain and tie it to the surrounding woods, from the front of the first house in the village all the way to the end of the village, very dense, like a huge giant egg.

"Wow, that's amazing!" Lin Yuan couldn't help but admire.

"The environment of the Skyflame Mountains is harsh, and in order to resist the fog, almost all the tribes rely on this means to survive. The dumb man seemed to be somewhat sympathetic.

"Actually, the disciples have been unable to figure out why they are reluctant to move to the outside world."

"Alas, the harsh government is fiercer than the tiger!" the dumb man shook his head, "The secular world is controlled by the four great empires, and there are countless kingdoms and principalities under their banners, and the people are exploited at all levels, and the people live in difficulty. If war breaks out, men will be forcibly recruited, where will the labor force come from to cultivate? If the harvest is not good, it is difficult to pay taxes, and they will be dragged into prison, and it is not uncommon for them to lose their lives. ”

"Although the Heavenly Flame Mountain Range is dangerous, it is safe from the intrusion of war and the oppression of rulers. So they would rather fight against nature than with endless oppression. ”

"Is it harsh?" Lin Yuan's expression was complicated, he himself was a fake principality lord, he had lived in the palace since he was a child, he stayed at home, he entered the Fire Rock Sect at the age of seven to practice, and he had never understood his people.

"I don't know when I will be able to return to China, and when I go back, I must be exempted from labor and reduce taxes. The boy swore in his heart.

"When I see someone later, I will say that we are grandfather and grandson, a martial arts family from the 'Pandan' principality, mainly to take you out to experience. The dumb man whispered.

The Duchy of Pandan, a small principality near the Skyflame Mountains.

Lin Yuan was stunned, although he didn't understand why he was lying, but he still nodded.

While they were talking, the group successfully crossed the jungle and came to the front of the village. When the residents saw two foreigners, they stopped what they were doing and stared at them vigilantly.

Especially after discovering that Manshan and Manchuan were injured and the young patriarch was unconscious, there were already several reckless men carrying iron spears and approaching quickly.

"Manshan, who are the two of them?

"Don't be nervous, these two are our benefactors......" Manchuan took the first step, stopped in front of everyone, and recounted the whole story from the beginning, and shook the serrated armadillo in his hand quite proudly after speaking.

"Great, this big rat poisoned a lot of people, so we didn't dare to go out hunting for a long time, and we finally got retribution!"

"Yes, Brother Manyu was poisoned by it, as well as Manti, Manfeng, and a few of them, who barely survived by cutting off their hands and feet. ”

"Go and tell the patriarch the good news!"

......

The crowd erupted in cheers and rushed to tell each other. Since this sawtooth armadillo came to settle in the vicinity, it has caused chaos everywhere, attacking dozens of people back and forth, causing the barbarian clan to suffer unspeakably. Now that he has finally kicked the iron plate and planted it in the hands of the dumb uncle, it is really happy.

Manshan left with Mangu in his arms, preparing to place him in the house.

After a while, a sturdy old man with a red face walked quickly surrounded by everyone, walking like a leader.

"Hahaha, the distinguished guest is here, the old man is the patriarch here. ”

The dumb man also returned the salute with a fist and responded with a smile.

"If the two distinguished guests don't dislike it, please move with the old decay and talk about the wine together. The sturdy old man said enthusiastically, "Sons, kill chickens and cattle, and you must entertain the VIPs well!"

Everyone echoed and immediately got busy, and the dumb uncle and Lin Yuan immediately went deep into the village under the leadership of the old man.

The hard gray boulders are used as the foundations, and the thick and straight trees are used as beams, and the houses are built into quite simple houses. In the open space in front of the house, there are many slender branches, which are used to dry clothes, dry meat cuts, and so on.

The children of the clan frolicked on the path, and when they saw the old man passing by, they would bow down obediently, and then look at Lin Yuan and the dumb uncle with curious eyes.

In their view, different means different, and this is a word that their fathers often admonished in their ears and must be kept in mind.

After walking for about half an hour, they came to a rather wide meadow, surrounded by many square tables, each of which sat four or five people, and the tables were full of all kinds of delicacies.

Man Qianlang led the two of them straight to the head of the seat, and then motioned for everyone to start eating.

The barbarian clansmen, young and old, are generally strong and strong, and the amount of food is naturally amazing, and all the large wooden basins on the table are placed, all kinds of meat pieces are packed together, and vegetables and fruits are served on the other side, and everyone eats them with their hands.

Lin Yuan was a little restrained at first, he didn't let go of it, he just took an apple and nibbled on it, but then he couldn't stand the temptation of the aroma, and finally let go of his belly and ate meat, and drank wine in a big bowl.

Man Qianlang's eyes looked back and forth between the dumb uncle and Lin Yuan, as if he was speculating on the primary and secondary relationship between the two.

Although his clansmen reported that it was the old gentleman who captured the armadillo, he had been standing half a step behind the young man when he was walking just now, faintly respecting the young man.

"Thanks to the two of us who came to our rescue, they killed the demon beast in one fell swoop, solved the problem for us, and were the benevolent fathers of our barbarian clan. Come, everyone raise a glass to Engong!"

Man Qianlang spoke with a lot of energy, very hearty, and after drinking, he poured it back again.

"Judging from the costumes, the two Engongs shouldn't be locals, right?"

"Engong doesn't dare to be, the old man doesn't have to be polite. Lin Yuan smiled slightly, and said slowly according to the plan he had discussed with the dumb uncle in advance, "My name is Lin Yuan, he is my grandfather, and we are from the martial arts family of the Principality of Rock. Because I heard that there are many rare beasts inhabited in the Sky Flame Mountain Range, I pestered my grandfather to come over to experience it, and by the way, I appreciated the customs and customs of this place. ”

"I see, Engong is really a master of art and bold, but the Sky Flame Mountain Range is very dangerous. ”

"Old man, don't call us Engong anymore, it's a chivalrous man to draw a sword to help when he sees injustice. Lin Yuan's eyes were sincere, and his tone was insistent and sincere.

"Okay! It's really a hero. Man Qianlang exclaimed, why wasn't he tempting, if Lin Yuan's expression was fluttering, he would make him despise.

"Lu Yu, it stands to reason that the last person should be the representative of the Nangong family, how can it be a foreign surname?"

"yes, what's going on?"

The audience thought they had heard it wrong, and even Qin Hao was half-convinced and lacked confidence when he announced it.

"Hey, I said which play is your Nangong family singing?" Duanmu slyly questioned.

"Could it be that the old master of Duanmu has forgotten the agreement of the ancestors?" Nangong Ba responded lightly.

"I naturally remember the rules handed down by the ancestors, each family sent three representatives to conduct the meeting, and another note can send a guest to participate. That's why I wonder why a child can be a guest of the Nangong family, and he is not afraid of the world's ridicule. Duanmu sneered.

"Why bother talking too much, let them see the real chapter on stage. Nangong Tuo smiled as if he didn't care at all, in fact, he had already scolded Nangong Ba in private. He didn't expect that the Keqing mentioned earlier was actually just a half-old child. How can you make it, can't the head of the family even beat a child?

Duanmu Lei looked at Lu Yu unkindly, he was yin by this kid last time, and it took several days to recover his right arm, and today he will be ashamed.

"The Nangong family really declined, and they actually sent foreign aid to fight. Duanmu Lei took the stage domineeringly, condescending, and domineering.

"What did you say!"

"Presumptuous!"

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the members of the Nangong family were furious, but Lu Yu turned a deaf ear and slowly walked to the side.

"Please Miss Yi help me take care of Xiaobai. ”

"Wow, it's so cute!" Nangong Yi was instantly fanned when she saw Xiaobai for the first time, and gently held it in the palm of her hand.

"Goh?" The little guy looked confused, sleeping well and waking himself up.

"What a pretty little fox, hee-hee. Nangong Yi couldn't put it down, and kept stroking Xiaobai's fluff that was as clean as snow, causing the little guy to raise his claws to resist.

"I'm going to touch it too. Nangong Xin stretched out her jade hand, and Xiao Bai was so frightened that she drilled into Nangong Yi's chest, which had already left a deep shadow on this woman.

"Ahh

Ahem~

Lu Yu was also amused when he saw this, but after getting along for so long, he still didn't know Xiaobai's gender.

Duanmu Lei saw that Lu Yu didn't look at him properly, especially the jealous demeanor of Nangong Xin and the two women made him angry.

To be changed, don't rush
