This desolate yellow sand has occupied people's vision for several days, and the sudden appearance of this greenery is really refreshing.
Without further ado, Fang Linyan stepped on the accelerator and accelerated towards the oasis.
If you look from a distance, it is not difficult to find that this oasis in the desert is low-lying and is basically inside a basin.
From a bird's eye view, it looks like a giant horseshoe print.
The left and right sides of the oasis are surrounded by cliffs, and beyond the cliffs are undulating sand dunes with bustling shrubs growing on them.
The remaining centaur tribe can choose this place as a temporary base, presumably there is a water source inside.
When Fang Linyan approached the entrance, a group of patrolling centaurs made a strange war cry of "Woooooooo" and ran towards him.
Different from Varden's attire, they were wearing gray straw woven vests on their upper bodies, and their lower bodies were uniformly covered with a simple piece of woven fabric similar to sumo attire, the material of which was probably not much different from linen.
The entrance to the camp was carefully decorated by the remaining centaur tribe. Fang Linyan can be seen less than a few hundred meters away from the cliff. There are several large flags on both sides of the entrance. The flagpoles are made of brown wood.
It was made, about 3 meters high, and was stuck on the ground like an elongated cross, with a white skull on top.
A blood-colored vertical flag floats under the beam of the flagpole, with a curved arrow and two horse hoof prints scrawled on it using charcoal strips and the like. There are several extinguished braziers and blackened charcoal placed around the flagpole.
piled inside.
I saw this group of centaurs sprinting over in a menacing manner, then approached the all-terrain vehicle and surrounded it.
The centaur guards held weapons full of primitive and savagery, including cold and rough axes, Damascus-style machetes, rocks tied with ropes, and more of them wooden sticks.
Mostly......
In short, their behavior can illustrate one thing:
This group of down-and-out centaurs did not show any enthusiasm or hospitality. On the contrary, if the travelers from far away could not use enough force, or had tokens or something like that, there was almost a high probability that they would be robbed.
At this time, Goat had no choice but to stand up. As soon as the car door opened, he found that an ax was directly placed on his neck. At the same time, a strong smell of mutton hit his face, almost making him pass out on the spot.
Then, the primitive centaur in front of him began to squeak, spoke a lot of languages that he couldn't understand, and kept waving the thing in his hand in front of his eyes, ready to chop.
There is no doubt that he is carrying out a routine robbery--see if my brother's ax is good? Why don't you hand over the valuables on you?
Seeing that these extremely vicious guys were about to take action, the goat hurriedly took out the horn that Varden had given him before, took it in his hand, and then loudly said in common language:
“Jordan! Varden! Friend, please inform me!”
Fortunately, the goat itself has a strong communication talent, which is a unique ability that even needs space. Therefore, the centaurs carefully looked at the horn a few times, and immediately stopped harassing with some doubts.
One of them, a centaur with curly hair and two slender beards floating under his cheeks, took a closer look at the horn, then stood up and scolded the others away, explained to his companions, and ran off alone.
Returned to camp.
Not long after, Fang Linyan saw two centaurs running out of the camp quickly. Unlike the rough guys in these patrols, what ran out at this time was actually two ladies, or perhaps it should be said that they were two young wild horses.
.
The leading female centaur has delicate skin and looks young at first glance. Her steps are vigorous and bouncing like a deer. She is vigorous and full of wildness. Her body is also painted with eye-catching witchcraft characters in white ash.
.
Of course, what made the goat look straight at it was the pair of firm horse breasts swaying on the chest! Fang Linyan, who knew goats well, was highly suspicious. At this time, there must be many immature thoughts echoing in the goat's mind.
And these immature ideas cannot be covered by mature provisions of the law...
Jordan was holding a long stick, with a gem inlaid on the top of the stick. It reflected many rays of light under the setting sun, which was very gorgeous. She walked slowly to the front and said:
“Human, where did you get this? Why do you know my name?”
Obviously, the lady in front of me is Jordan herself.
The goat shrugged and said:
"The wind was so strong... The sand was blown into my eyes. Oh, I'm so sorry, beautiful lady, I didn't mean to offend. We killed a warg and were discovered by Varden.
He asked me to give you the wolf's leash, saying that you should be very happy to see this thing."
Following that, the goat took out the wolf skin that had been stripped off Ghost Howler's body, and then handed it to Jordan.
Jordan took it doubtfully, frowned and took it for a look. At first, he seemed a little absent-minded, but suddenly a centaur next to him screamed in horror:
"How could this happen? I actually smell the scent of that devil!"
He screamed and trembled, and even dropped the weapon in his hand.
Several people followed one after another--Oh no, the centaurs must have started to panic, and this panic was still spreading like a plague.
Obviously, the harm done to them by the ghost howls was not only physical, but also caused severe psychological trauma.
At this time, Jordan also shook the wolf's skin directly, and then he was shocked and stunned. He hurriedly looked at it carefully. After almost a minute, he snatched the javelin from the tribe next to him and directly shot the wolf.
The skin was pierced into the head, and then it was raised high and started running fiercely around the nearby camp, and a series of fierce roars came from the mouth.
After Jordan started running, her tribe also joined the ranks. At the same time, they also made trombone sounds, mixed with complex emotions such as anger, excitement, joy, etc. There were even many centaurs lying directly on the ground howling.
Crying.
The sound of hoofbeats was rolling, and as the number of tribesmen increased, the sound of hoofbeats gradually became like thunder, resounding throughout the sky.
After a while, many centaurs began to leave the team, and then began to build fires. It seemed that they were preparing for a festive bonfire party. At this time, Jordan slowly walked over and said solemnly to Fang Linyan:
“Did you kill Ghost Howl?”
The goat then told Jordan what happened. Of course, it was selective, and there was some exaggeration in it, letting Jordan know that the losses on his side were not small, and he risked his life to kill the Wolf King.
A big risk or something like that.
After listening to the goat's story, Jordan nodded slightly and gave him a half-kneeling ceremony. Then he invited him into the camp and said that he had gained the friendship of the tribe and that he would always be a friend of the centaurs.
Obviously, the three of them were not very interested in the Centaur celebration, so they focused more on observing the surrounding situation.
As for the goat, it followed closely behind Jordan without any distractions.
Under the guidance of Jordan, after the three of them entered the camp, the first thing they saw was many tattered leather tents.
The tops of these tents are rather pointed and patched, and they should only serve as a basic shelter from wind and rain.
The layout of the camp has an exotic feel. Located in the center is a brown leather tent. The tent is quite large, like a huge yurt. There is a brown flag floating on the top, which is painted with white paint.
A crescent moon symbol appeared.
In order to stand out from the crowd, a large open space was left around the large tents. It can be seen from the piles of charcoal firewood on the open space. Bonfire parties and the like will also be held here at night.
Because of the abundant water in the oasis, there are a large number of dwarf shrubs and a date palm forest. Behind the camp is a quiet small lake. The edge of the small lake is covered with weeds and bread trees, and Fang Linyan can even be seen.
I saw some female centaurs washing something by the pond.
Jordan invited the three people into the central tent, and then someone brought them some slices of meat, a jar of water and fruit.
The meat was sliced very thin, with a few clean green leaves underneath. To be honest, it looked better than expected. Fang Linyan and the others smelled the caramel aroma and thought it tasted good, but at the same time they were afraid of offending the owner if they didn't eat it.
In this case, the three of them grabbed the food and ate it. After trying it, he found that the barbecue had no taste. To be precise, there was no seasoning. It was like the mutton had not been removed and had a slight fishy smell, but
The taste is excellent, crispy yet chewy.
There is a kind of light red fruit that suits Fang Linyan's appetite. This fruit grows in bunches like grapes. It tastes sour and sweet, but the taste is between blueberries and strawberries. It is juicy but not too juicy.
As for the overflowing kind.
The most unique thing is that the core of this fruit can actually be chewed. The first bite feels like a fresh walnut, and the second bite feels like a peanut.
Since there was no table in the camp and there was only a blanket on the ground, Fang Linyan and the three of them ate with their legs crossed. After they were half full and poured large gulps of water into their mouths, Jordan finally calmed down.
His own brown mane said:
“Humans, what should I call you?”
At this time, the goat must have come forward, he immediately said:
“Madam, my name is Goat!”
“Well, Goat, although I don’t know how you and Varden met, can you tell me the purpose of your coming here?”
Goat Road:
"We don't have any intention to disturb your lives. It's just because a friend is very obsessed with visiting new scenery and looking for more excitement. He came to this planet. The key is that he was unfortunately killed by those hill giants.
Captured."
“We obviously have no way to communicate with the hill giants to release them, so under Mr. Varden’s suggestion, we hope to get some relevant information from you.”
At this time Fang Linyan added:
“By the way, we have also reached an agreement with Mr. Varden to help him get rid of the villain Keishas the Stone Hammer. We are also in short supply of relevant information about him.”
Jordan said in shock:
“Stone hammer Keishas?! You even targeted him?”
The goat shrugged and said:
“Yes, because this is Mr. Varden’s strong request, I hope to get your help.”
Jordan pondered for a while and said:
“Stone Hammer Keishas is not an easy guy to deal with. We can help you collect intelligence, but there is no way to help you directly, because as you can see, our manpower is actually very insufficient right now.”
Fang Linyandao:
“It’s enough to have information. In addition, what I want to say is that we not only need information about Stonehammer Keishas, but also information about all the hill giants! Because our companions are still imprisoned in the giant’s camp.”
Jordan nodded and said:
“This is no problem, it’s a matter of course.”
At this time, Fang Linyan suddenly said:
“I would like to ask, which tribe do you belong to? Magram or Kyrgyz?”
Jordan said simply:
“Magram tribe.”
Fang Linyandao:
“That’s strange, then why didn’t Mr. Warden say this?”
Fang Linyan also used conversational skills here. Walden did not mention this, of course, because Fang Linyan never mentioned it at all.
But when he said this, it was as if the two had already discussed the matter, but Varden remained silent.
As a result, after being quoted by Fang Linyan, the little mare Jordan immediately said:
"That's because Master Varden still has something to hide. His true identity is actually very noble. He is a member of the Golden Family, with noble blood flowing in his body! His true identity is the great prince of the Kyrgyz tribe, but now the Kyrgyz tribe
The chief is his younger brother."
"At that time, the two of them did everything they could to compete for the position of Khan, and they formed a bloody feud. It was just because of the iron law within the ethnic group that members of the Golden Family could not kill each other, otherwise they would suffer the curse of their ancestors, so
Only Lord Varden can survive."
After hearing this, Fang Linyan said without changing his expression:
“It must be very difficult to live like this, right?”
Jordan Road:
“Yes, so Lord Varden encountered danger several times, and it was only with the help of our Magram tribe that he got through.”
Goat Wonderful Road:
“Isn’t your Magram tribe a mortal enemy of the Kyrgyz tribe?”
Jordan was silent for a while and said:
"The sworn enemies are sworn enemies, but both the Magram tribe and the Kyrgyz tribe are both subjects of the Golden Family..."
Goat found it a bit unbelievable. After some inquiry, he found out that the previous huge centaur tribe was founded by a powerful tree shepherd named Zalta.
Hello everyone, our public account will find gold and red envelopes every day. Just follow it and you can receive it. This is the last benefit at the end of the year. Please seize the opportunity. Public account [Book Friends Base Camp]
This tree shepherd was tired of the wandering life on the earth, so he settled down on this land, then recovered his fellow tribesmen, and finally established a huge tribe.
The bloodline passed down from Zalta's lineage is called the golden bloodline.
The pure bloodline that human European aristocrats value and advocate is actually of no use. Those who should be dandy are still dandies, and those who should be perverted are still perverts. There are even various genetic diseases caused by incest.
For example, the entire European royal family, including the famous Queen Elizabeth, is shrouded in the shadow of hemophilia and impotence.
However, the bloodline of Zalta, a tree shepherd, is real! The Zalta tribe has existed for more than a hundred years. During this long period of time, the priests with supernatural abilities in the tribe have
There are eighty-nine shamans in total.
Of these eighty-nine people, only three are of ordinary centaur origin, while the remaining eighty-six all have the golden bloodline of Zaltar to a greater or lesser extent!
In the Centaur tribe, the priests and shamans naturally control the power of public opinion and governance, so the saying that golden blood is very noble is deeply rooted in the hearts of all Centaurs.
Under such circumstances, even if on the surface the Magram tribe and the Kyrgyz tribe are fighting fiercely and blood is flowing, privately, even if they see Varden from the hostile tribe, they will respect him very much and even help him.
help.
With Jordan's explanation, Fang Linyan and the others finally understood Varden's identity. This guy was a loser and a wanderer. He was abandoned by his own tribe and relied on his bloodline advantage to make a living on the side of the enemy tribe.
However, Varden should also be a priest or shaman, so he is expected to be able to help the Magram tribe. Therefore, the two parties are interdependent or have a limited cooperation relationship.
After pondering for a while, Fang Linyan said:
“Then I have one last question.”
Jordan shrugged and said cheerfully:
“You have killed Ghost Howler, even if you ask a hundred more questions, or do something more extreme, it will be fine.”
Before Fang Linyan could reply, Goat's eyes suddenly lit up, and he obviously thought of something "more extreme"... And Fang Linyan continued:
“Then I asked...Who is the owner of Ghost Howl?”
Jordan said sadly:
"Ghost Howl was originally a wolf cub that was so sick that it was about to die, and even the mother wolf abandoned it. The Kyrgyz shaman Virogo adopted it. Two years later, it turned into a terrifying demon.
Wolf, unify the pack!"
“When we were engaged in a decisive battle with Kyrgyzstan, Ghostly Howler led the pack of wargs to cooperate with the Blood-mouthed Vulture King: Mazranaq launched a surprise attack from behind, causing us to fall short of the advantage we had gained.”
"Ghost Howl, who has extremely strong endurance, has been following us retreating men and launching surprise attacks. Almost half of the remaining people in our tribe have lost their relatives and friends to Ghost Howl's attacks. This is you
After bringing its skin, why can we gain our friendship?"
After figuring out these issues, Fang Linyan nodded, and then said:
“Got it...thank you!”
***
After wandering around the camp for a while, and then taking a rest, the three of them felt that if they added Korok at this time, they would have already laid out three additional trump cards, so of course they planned to return to the camp.
It is worth mentioning that the goat actually found a lot of human things in the Centaur camp, including backpacks, clothes, etc. After asking about it, I found out that these things were collected by the adventurers that the Centaur usually collected.
Relics.
There are also many gold ornaments in the centaur camp. Of course, the production technology is very crude.
