Chapter Fourteen In the Mysterious Tribe
The natives were so frightened that they didn't know what to do. Vincent was also worried that he couldn't communicate with them and couldn't get what he wanted. Just when the two sides were in a stalemate, suddenly, there was a loud shout.
came from behind the crowd.
After hearing the voice, the crowd retreated to both sides. The frightened expressions on their faces disappeared in an instant. Some people only had respect and admiration. Obviously, the visitor's status in this tribe was not low. Vincent narrowed his eyes slightly.
With my eyes open, I saw a stooped old man walking slowly with the support of two young women.
The old man came in. The old man was very old. The wrinkles on his face were almost wrinkled together, and his walking pace was slightly trembling. He was wearing a wooden crutch and was wearing clothes made of bright feathers. He was weak but shining.
Without even looking at the broken corpse on the ground, he slowly walked straight to Vincent.
In a primitive tribe like this, the leader of the tribe is usually the strongest warrior in the tribe, and it is impossible for someone as old as this old man to serve as the leader. But looking at the way other natives respect him, it is obvious that the people in the tribe
His status is not low. Since he is not a leader, he should be a spiritual leader like a wizard.
He stood steadily in front of Vincent without any fear. The people in this tribe were already short, and as he was older and stooped, he looked even shorter. He tried hard to stand straighter.
Although his voice was not high, it was sonorous and powerful. He asked Vincent in fluent English: "You, a foreigner, why did you come to our tribe and kill my children? I am the wizard of our tribe.
Lu."
Vincent pointed to the surrounding natives who were still pointing their spears at him, chuckled and said in English: "Hello, respected wizard, I am the king from the far east, Vincent. Your child has offended me, my
The guards just gave them a small lesson. If they continue to offend me, I don't mind giving them another lesson that they will never forget."
The old wizard's face changed slightly after hearing what Vincent said. He really didn't expect that Vincent could be so confident after killing someone. However, Vincent said that he was a king, and the old wizard still believed it.
That intimidating momentum, that proud attitude of not taking anything seriously, and those around him
The terrifying power of these guards all proves his extraordinary status. He must be a king, and his country is not small. Small countries do not have the manpower or resources to cultivate such a powerful person.
A soldier, his country may even be bigger than the UK where he went to study when he was young.
Each of them is so powerful. Except for the gypsy woman, even the frightening strength of the delicate oriental beauty is enough to wipe out their entire tribe by one person. Especially the king from the east, King Vincent,
The old wizard always felt that there was a very obscure power hidden in his body. This power could not be sensed by ordinary people, but it made the old wizard feel a fear that had not appeared for a long time.
The old wizard thought of this and did not hesitate. He turned around and said something to the natives. He saw that all the natives put away their weapons and retreated in an orderly manner, and went back to their homes. Although they died 7
Individually, but all the natives had no dissatisfaction with the old wizard's orders, which shows the old wizard's status in everyone's hearts.
After seeing all the natives leaving, the old wizard turned to look at Vincent, forced a smile and said: "Everyone, please come to my room and sit down. Since you have come to our tribe, you belong to our tribe."
guest."
As he spoke, he led Vincent and his party to the largest house located in the center of the tribe. It was said to be big compared to the surrounding houses, and the space inside was only 100 square meters. However, the size of this house
The door was high enough to avoid the embarrassment of Dashan and Li Yuqi not being able to come in, and it was very empty inside with no furnishings, so the two giants could find a place to sit.
After everyone sat down, the old wizard smiled at Vincent and said: "Great King Vincent, do you know why you came to our tribe? This place is so remote, it should not be a place where a king like you would set foot.
ah."
After hearing this, Vincent smiled slightly, took out the metal plate and said to the old wizard: "We came here based on the prompt above, looking for something lost by our ancestors."
The old wizard's expression changed slightly when he saw the metal plate, but it was quickly covered up by his calmness and care. However, all his subtle expressions were caught by Vincent, who was looking at him carefully.
The old wizard chuckled and said: "I have lived here for more than 90 years, and I am the longest-lived person in our tribe. For more than 90 years, I have never heard of any treasures here. But the great King Vincent, if
If you need any help from our tribe, please tell me and I will do my best to help you. You see, people from our tribe have been living here for so long, so there must be somewhere that can help you.
of."
After hearing this, Vincent nodded with satisfaction. Then, his eyes were attracted by the various totems decorated in the room, and then asked the old wizard about the origin of the totems. These totems are actually the beliefs of this tribe. As a symbol of belief, Vincent
The representative of the human world, the old wizard Cheru, showed unprecedented enthusiasm and began to introduce it to Vincent and others. The legends passed down from ancient times popped out of his mouth one after another, just like
It's the same thing he's experienced personally.
As we started chatting, it was time for lunch before we knew it. About 10 young girls from the village brought food to Vincent and others. The lunch was not very rich, of course, looking at the poverty of the village.
And the expressions of those little girls secretly swallowing saliva, this should
It was time for them to have a rare delicacy. The dinner plates were all made of small baskets woven with rattan. Inside were placed some barbecued unknown animal meat, some wild fruits, and a few pieces of cake made with starch. Indeed, in
In the barren desert area, these things are already rare delicacies.
The old wizard warmly entertained: "Dear guests who have come from afar, you are accustomed to fine wine and sumptuous food, please try our tribe's special food. It is very simple, I hope you won't dislike it."
Although there are not many roasted meats in the small basket, the roasted oil is shiny, the wild fruits are bright and attractive, and the cakes look like food that can easily fill the stomach. All these make people's appetites whet their appetite.
When everyone wanted to enjoy the food, Li Yuqi sniffed hard, and suddenly he said: "Master, this food is poisonous. The barbecue is sprinkled with anesthetic, and this fruit is highly poisonous." As he said, he picked up the food.
