The sky is clear and cloudless, and the sea breeze blows gently. Between the beaches and tidal flats, the leaves of palm trees sway in the wind. Birds soar in the sea and sky, and trout gather on the seaside. January on the tropical coast is such warmth and comfort.
scene.
The three thousand canine legions rested for a day in Neshpa and then continued eastward. The soldiers marched along the coast, raising clouds of smoke and dust. News of the northern invasion gradually spread, and many villages in front of them fled, leaving only
The simple villages were destroyed. The villages that dared to resist were all captured and turned into torches on the seaside one by one.
He had not encountered a major battle for half a month, and Hei Lang felt relaxed. There were no pursuers behind him, and there were no enemies in front of him. Coupled with the more than ten days of food and grass transported by canoe, the dangerous sweep behind enemy lines turned into a relaxed armed march.
Everyone slowed down their pace, and within four days they traveled 120 miles and arrived at the small village where the personal guard Mavic was born, Trout Village (today's La Mira).
Once here, there are only forty or fifty miles left from the mouth of the Talsas River. And from the mouth of the sea, going upstream for another two to three hundred miles, you will reach the vast Lake Atoyak. In other words,
The kingdom is not far away.
The black wolf held his head high, wore light leather armor, and held a sharp bronze sword in his hand. He stood on a high ground and gave stern orders to the two thousand canine descendants of the Chinese army.
"The Chinese army formed a team of 300 people and collected grain from several nearby villages for two days until they reached the Talsas River!"
"Ouch! Chief Black Wolf, good chief!"
Hearing this, the canine warriors howled together in great joy.
The raging Tulsas River rushes down from the north and gradually becomes wider at the mouth of the river, forming a large fertile impact plain. The fertile soil, sufficient water sources, and suitable temperatures have allowed the population here to increase again, and the villages have become
It prospered and even opened up cotton fields.
The canine descendants came after a long journey, and when they saw this prosperous village, their eyes shone brightly again. The sweep was about to end, and there were almost no enemies in the rest of the journey. This should be the last robbery before returning to the kingdom!
Although Hand Snake City is more prosperous, it is in the middle of the expedition. After the city was broken, most of the property was discarded, and only some food was taken away. Most of the ordinary fishing villages behind only had food, and no property was plundered at all.
And the villages here look like they are extremely wealthy.
Even if you only grab a piece of cloth and a few clay pots and take them home, it is better than the harvest from farming!
Listening to the wolf howls of the canine warriors, Maho, the leader of the Trout Village, trembled. The nearby villages were all related to the same tribe. He hesitated for a moment, but in the end he did not dare to speak out, but secretly ordered Shan
The tribesmen who ran.
"Go to the river mouth as soon as possible to find the new samurai master! Be careful on the road."
Black Wolf arranged the legion's camp and sent envoys to inquire about the situation of the 500 front and 500 rear troops. When the army was dispatched, it was necessary to put scouts in front and guards in the rear. After finishing his work, he was accompanied by Mavik
, enjoy lunch in the village.
Mavic returned to his hometown, feeling very emotional and in high spirits. He skillfully raised a bonfire and set up a clay pot. In the clay pot, he cooked seaside whitebait soup, and added fresh mushrooms and dried sea vegetables.
"Boss, this is mushroom, seaweed and whitebait soup, just one word, fresh!"
"Um."
Black Wolf sniffed his nose and nodded. It smelled really good.
"Boss, since our village is called Trout Village, it is naturally rich in trout. I'm here to get you some salt-baked trout!"
"good!"
After Mavic finished speaking, he went to the village chief's house, whom he had not dealt with since he was a child, and got some fresh trout, preserved oranges, and precious passion fruits and peppers. The village chief Mahon didn't dare to say a word and still
Was called by Mavik to help with the cooking.
Then, the two lit a small fire in the stone pit stove, cut the oranges and spices into small slices, stuffed them into the trout's belly, rubbed them with sea salt, wrapped them in palm leaves, and finally grilled them on the pit stove.
After a while, the aroma of food hit his nostrils. Black Wolf moved his index finger and cursed with a smile.
"Mavik, you do know how to make food!"
"Haha, boss, I grew up by the sea, and I'm very good at making food! It's just these spices that I couldn't get easily before."
Mavik laughed and responded with a smile. Then he turned his head and kicked Ma Ho with a half-smile.
"Village chief, watch the fire. It can't be too big or too small. If it burns, I'll take it from you!"
"Uh...yes, yes."
The village chief, Ma Huo, looked after the two of them with a grimace. When the fire got too big, he had to play with it, and when the fire was low, he had to blow it up. Ma Huo's face was gray and his hair was brown, and Maweike smiled with satisfaction.
, said to Black Wolf.
"Captain, the fish is grilled and the soup is ready. Please try our delicious food by the sea!"
"Um."
Hei Lang filled a bowl of fish soup, blew it, and took a sip eagerly. The delicious taste of mountain delicacies and seafood immediately reverberated in his mouth. The tender whitebait swam on his tongue, and the crispy seaweed was on his tongue.
Chew it with your teeth, and swallow the delicious mushrooms directly into your belly. In this era without MSG, you can only enjoy such a delicious mushroom at the beach!
Hei Lang's eyes lit up. He drank the hot soup in large gulps, and a stream of hot air rose from his spine, making his whole body feel refreshed and comfortable.
"Good, very good! So delicious!"
Then, the black wolf stretched out his hand again, peeled off the palm leaves twice, took the fragrant grilled fish, and took a big bite. The trout, like the turkey, had some firewood, but the grilled fish at the moment was grilled just right.
When you bite into it, the skin of the trout is crispy and the meat is smooth, and the locked fish juices flow freely.
Hei Lang's eyes widened and he was startled. He took two more bites. The fish juice was hot and sweet, and it turned out to be blended with the orange juice. The fish meat was salty and spicy, spicy and fragrant, tender and tender.
Smooth. The fish sauce is mixed with the fish meat, and the sweet, salty and spicy complement each other, making you endless aftertaste.
“Good, very good! So delicious!”
Hei Lang ate several pieces of grilled fish and drank a bowl of fish soup. He was very satisfied. He was in high spirits and said to Mavic with a smile.
"This beach is really nice. You can eat such delicious food every day! It seems that being a village chief here is not a disadvantage!"
"That is, after fighting for so many years and crawling out of the dead. If you can return to your hometown and become a village chief who bullies the weak and fears the strong, that will be the blessing of the Lord God!"
As the personal guard Mavik spoke, he looked at the village chief Mahuo. Mahuo smiled, but Mahuo felt a chill on his neck. He secretly cursed.
"Eat it every day? Even I, the village chief, can't eat this fish twice a month!"
"Haha! Follow Your Highness, good times are yet to come!"
Black Wolf didn't take it seriously. For him, fighting in battle was the happiest thing. After he had eaten and drank enough, he felt more spiritual needs and remembered his plans along the way.
"Mavik, that gray-black sacred mountain you mentioned is in this area?"
"Yes, boss. That sacred mountain is more than ten miles northwest, close to the mountains in the north. I went there several times when I was a child, and I picked up reddish-brown flowers and stones. I have a deep memory. However, there are village priests living there, and they have worshiped the mountain gods for generations.
, very vicious. They didn’t allow me to stay long and even wanted to sacrifice me!”
Mavik gritted his teeth when he thought of this. Since he brought the army back to his hometown today, he naturally wanted to take revenge and complain, just to feel comfortable.
"Ah!...This, this, this great master...there is the sacred mountain of the village. There is a mountain god here, how can you offend..."
Hearing this, the village chief Ma Huo was shocked. He finally spoke and gave a few hesitant words of advice, but was pushed away by Ma Vick.
"Village chief, it will be your own benefit to serve the good leader obediently! Don't worry about other things!"
"...Ah this."
Ma Huo's neck felt cold and he took two steps back. He didn't dare to persuade him anymore and just murmured.
"If you offend the sacred mountain and its priests, the mountain god will be angry..."
"Mavik, take me there right now!"
"Okay, boss."
Both of them acted vigorously and with more than a hundred soldiers, they were ready to set off. At this moment, a former army scout came in a hurry and shouted urgently.
"Chief, Chief Black Wolf! Hundreds of warriors are coming from the east!"
Hearing this, the village chief Ma Huo looked happy. Hei Lang and Maweike looked at each other with solemn expressions.
