After Ekulu said these words, the atmosphere in the venue suddenly became tense.
Zhang Yu seemed to be very unconcerned and said: "Then why do you do this?"
Ekuru stared at him and said: "I know you have many people in Dongting, but we still have many sacrifices. As a divine descendant, I want you to understand that it is not something that mortals can deal with relying on numbers."
Zhang Yu looked at him and said: "Judging from the number of people in your Jianclaw tribe, you have about a hundred sacrifices, not more." He pointed at Zanujca, "Your tribe has been there
Ruiguang, you should know that this amount is really nothing if placed in the Dongting Protectorate."
Zanujca tried to understand the strength of the Protectorate, such as the "Shenwei Army" and the "Xuanfu".
He was not aware of the contradiction between the two. In his opinion, there was no doubt that the Protectorate had powerful gods and a large number of sacrificial groups. The same was true. The Hard Claw tribe did not treat Zhan Zhi and others like that.
, just imprisoning them.
Priest Kamo looked at Ekulu, stood up and said, "We still have the great 'Toloti'."
Zhang Yu said in a calm tone: "We Tianxia have suppressed and killed many gods, too many to count. 'Toloti' is also nothing special."
When the people of the Jianclaw tribe heard these words, their expressions changed. At this moment, everyone present felt that a terrifying power suddenly enveloped them. At this moment, there seemed to be an existence that was difficult for mortals to touch.
Looking at them.
When this feeling enveloped them, the members of the Strong Claw tribe on duty outside also felt the same. They all knelt down one after another, kowtowed in different directions, and kept shouting "Toloti".
Zhang Yu was unmoved. The altar of this god had just been built, and its real altar should still be in the jungle. Unless the tribe was in danger of near-annihilation, it would be impossible for the other party to expend their strength to come find him.
The terrifying power that can be felt now actually shines directly on the mind. If it is maintained for a long time, it can indeed affect a person's mind and make people crazy or afraid.
In fact, this kind of ability is not weak, but for a person like him who has the heart light guard, this kind of intimidation is almost like a breeze blowing on his face.
And through such a contact, he also got out an important piece of information.
The current Trotti is no longer the "Toloti" of the past.
The Trotti he felt three years ago was dull, conservative, suspicious, and powerful, like a dormant old lion. But now he feels cunning, forbearing, bloodthirsty, and patient, like a lion in the dark.
In his prime, he still maintains an aggressive but extremely cautious alpha wolf.
This undoubtedly shows that this god has changed.
The Hardclaw tribe and the gods they worship are not the way the gods control everything as generally thought, but more of a cooperative and co-existing relationship.
The gods protected them and protected the tribe against the forces from above, while the Ironclaw tribe provided them with enough sacrifices to strengthen their power.
But if the wishes of the tribe and the gods are inconsistent, then some kind of change is likely to occur.
In fact, as long as the sacrifices are properly controlled, it is very easy for the chieftain to change his god. This kind of change is not about replacing another god, but about forcibly changing his temperament and nature while ensuring his fundamental strength.
This can be done voluntarily by the gods, or it can be forcibly promoted by the sacrifices. Although this will result in the loss of the power of the gods, in the long run, it is beneficial to the development of the tribe. Because the changed gods can be transformed into new ones to the greatest extent.
The leader’s intentions are consistent.
Wu Shijiao was also shocked when the power of the gods arrived, but fortunately nothing happened later, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
In comparison, An Chuer, Yu Mingyang and others seemed not to be affected at all. This is because Zhang Yu told them in school that as long as the gods do not come in front of you, then as long as you do not waver, then they
I can't destroy you.
Ekuru said with a cold face: "Tianxia Goddess, you belittle our gods, which makes me very unhappy."
Zhang Yu sat there, his body upright, and said: "Whether you are happy or not, whether you are a human or a god, if you want to talk to our Tianxia, you must respect our Tianxia's rules. If you are willing to accept it, then we can
Keep talking, and if you're not willing to accept it, then leave. It's that simple."
When he said this, he said it entirely in Tianxia dialect.
Ekuru looked at Zanujca, who quickly translated the sentence.
Wu Shijiao broke out in a cold sweat after hearing this, and managed to maintain his composure. He kept writing down, for fear of falling out if he disagreed. However, he wanted to come to Zhang Yu to get to know the other party, so this must be some kind of strategy.
But this time Zhang Yu was definitely not deliberately showing toughness, but he really thought so. When dealing with such a tribe, you must not take a step back or show any weakness.
Don't think that your concession will make the other party stop. If the Hard Claw tribe finds that it can get more by showing off its force, then it will keep trying and ask for more things until you can't retreat.
.
Rather than doing this, it would be better to never take a step back from the beginning.
When dealing with such an opponent, you must not apply your own cognition and logic to the opponent, but should completely regard the opponent as a beast that believes in the law of the jungle.
In their view, if you are strong, you can make people who are weaker than you bow down, and what you say will make more sense.
Just like the remnants of the Xueyang Empire just now, because they are weaker, they are not qualified to intervene again.
Ekulu said with a serious expression: "So what are your Tianxia rules? I want to hear them."
In his understanding, Dongting people are the residents of this land, and Tianxia is where many Dongting gods live. So when he heard that this was Tianxia's rule, he seemed extremely solemn, because it represented
The attitude of the gods comes directly from the will of the upper power.
Zhang Yudao: "The Duhu Mansion can give you food and tea, but you must pay for it with your own efforts. For example, if we want to fight the remnants of the Bloody Yang in the north, we may use food in exchange for your sacrifices and clan members.
We contribute; for example, if you clean up the spiritual creatures in the wasteland, you can trade these corpses with us for cloth and porcelain. In short, we will give you as much as you contribute."
When Ekulu heard this, there seemed to be anger in his chest, but as if he thought of something again, he clenched his fists, endured it, and said in a calm voice: "Tianxia Goddess, I heard your conditions, we
Needs to be considered.”
Zhang Yu nodded and said: "Please make a decision quickly, we don't have much time to delay here." He stood up, turned around and said again, "Actually, I have always believed that talking to you is the best way to talk to you.
Steel and guns are much simpler than words."
After saying that, he walked out directly. Su Zhu and his two disciples followed immediately, and An Chuer, Yu Mingyang and others also followed without hesitation.
Teacher Wu was shocked, had the talks collapsed? At this time, he did not dare to ask more questions, and he quickly led the people from the academy out.
Ekuru watched Zhang Yu and his party walk out of the shed. He was not as angry as he imagined. Instead, he looked very calm. He supported his two elbows on the wooden stakes and interlocked his fingers with each other, covering half of his face.
face, staring outside.
As for the priests on both sides, no one dared to speak at this time.
After a while, Ekulu suddenly said: "Gamo Sacrifice, do you know the 'Antuko people'?"
The Kamo priest thought about it and said, "Great chief, I have heard of them. They seem to be a large tribe under the holy mountain in the past."
Ekulu's eyes moved to Zanuitsa, who immediately stood up and said: "Kamo Sacrifice, many of the current Dongting people are 'Antuco people', and the current king of the Dongting people is one
Descendant of the Tongting people and the women of Antuco, he possesses untold wealth and a vast army, and is supported by their gods."
Ekuru said: "Did you hear that? In fact, we can become as powerful as the 'Antuco people' today, and it is not impossible to even become the master of the Dongting people."
Kamo sacrificed: "Great Chief, what should we do?"
Ekulu said: "Zhanuica told me that the king of the Dongting people has a sister. If the king of the Dongting people is willing to marry her to me, then I can agree to all the conditions of the descendant of Tianxia."
As for why he didn't put forward this condition before, it was because he wanted to make his opponent surrender through a show of force.
It's like a beast breaking into another beast's territory, intimidating the opponent by displaying its claws and fangs, trying to drive the opponent away or simply bite off a piece of flesh.
But he found that he could not intimidate his opponents with these, and he felt that the price of war would be too high, so he could only settle for the next best thing.
Of course, this is just a concession in his opinion.
Kamo said: "This method is very good. If it succeeds, the chieftain will belong to the royal family of the Dongting people. He may also inherit the throne of the Dongting people. But...will the king of the Dongting people be willing?"
Ekulu grinned and said: "I'm just a woman. I can help the king of Dongting people fight, help him guard his territory, and help him consolidate his power. I think he will be willing."
The priests present all nodded. In the Hardclaw tribe, women were indeed just a kind of commodity in most cases, and they took it for granted that the same was true in other places.
Zanuica could actually feel that this was not the case in the Protectorate's Mansion, and that women seemed to have a very high status, but he was limited in his vision and could not explain why.
Seeing that no one objected, Ekulu punched the wooden stake in front of him and said: "Then, go and call back the Tianxia god descendant. You can give him more respect. Maybe I want to become Dong in the future."
The king of the court still needs the support of their gods."
The priests present all showed relaxed smiles.
But at this moment, everyone suddenly felt something was wrong. They looked around and soon noticed that the ground seemed to be shaking and the teacups on the wooden piles were beating faintly.
Everyone looked surprised.
"earthquake?"
Outside the shed, a tribal barbarian warrior ran in in a panic, lying on the ground, pointing outside and shouting something.
Ekulu's expression suddenly became serious, he stood up and quickly walked out of the shack.
Looking over from his sight, on the plain where the rain clouds dispersed and the light began to shine, a huge military formation appeared there, its wings spread outward, and it was difficult to see the end at a glance, and the banners blocked the sky and the sun.
