Chronicles of Primordial Wars

Chapter 177: The Masked Man

Set off again, the team grew. In addition to those on the tribe's side, there are expeditionary teams from other tribes.

After the team expanded, it became much more lively. Shao Xuan could also hear a lot of gossip from other tribes. He would also go to ask people something during the break.

A few days later, Shao Xuan learned a lot of new information.

Shao Xuan has a map in his hand, he made it himself, the map left behind by his ancestors is no longer available. Nearly a millennium ago, Kaolin turned plain, plain turned mountain river, the composition and distribution of the tribe changed dramatically. Shao Xuan needs to draw an up-to-date map to take home so that after the tribe crosses the river, it will be difficult.

At this moment, an experienced traveler is talking to Shao Xuan about what he heard back then.

“We didn't go this way, we went the other way, then the inter-tribal war broke out there, and until now it's not over, we changed this one temporarily. The river along that route is much wider than this one and comes in two colors! There's a tribe next to that river. They make great rafts. That raft over there is the biggest and sturdiest I've ever seen! I wish we had a raft like that.” The man remembered with envy in his eyes.

Seeing the confusion of Shao Xuan's face, the man also drew a comparison with Shao Xuan, detailing the "biggest and sturdiest raft" in his mouth.

After listening to each other's description, Shaw Xuanton said, "Is that a boat? ”

“Yeah, yeah, they call the boat. ”

The man went on to recall, to say something about what had happened, but, a few years later, a lot of the memories were a little blurred.

Shao Xuan wrote these down. If he had time, he wanted to go over there and see if the tribes needed boats to cross the river. In the absence of metal, Shao Xuan is not sure how to make a big boat. It's the best way to learn from it.

“I remember there were a lot of travelers there.” Another traveler didn't want to be lonely and came and talked.

“Looks like it, but it just helped the tree break wood, hey, I heard that the slave owner went there too and took a lot of slaves.” The man said before.

Slave owners always go to places to find people in order to increase the number of slaves under their control. The defeated tourists who have lost their sparks and their tribes have been exterminated are their favorite targets. However, they will not go looking for people as soon as those tribes have been exterminated, but will wait a year or two for those tourists to see the situation clearly, suffer setbacks and blows, and then go again when they are near despair. By that time, some of the tourists who had suffered a lot, instead of avoiding their slave owners, would stick it on their own. Just like that.

In order to get more slaves, the slave owners would move around, as would Shao Xuan's predecessors. When Shao Xuan listened to the two men, he learned about some of the places he had been before.

Shao Xuan Dark kept those places in his heart. He suspected that he had seen the same people as the flaming ones, or had seen the totem pattern of the Flaming Horn tribe, and wondered if it was possible to see them while he was looking for slaves.

In any case, Shao Xuan intends to look for it when passing through those places. After all, according to the flashing ancestors, there should be many more scattered people, and over the years, if one generation after another lives, there can be many more.

The Flamingo tribal population on the other side of the river is small, and the first thing you need to do to expand is to bring back the scattered Flamingo tribesmen.

“In addition to those places, there are many tourists, often slave owners, on the meadows we pass behind.” A traveler said.

Shao Xuan looked at the area not fully painted on the map, which is the grassland, and the expedition team would not go deep, just past the grassland border area. There are many tribes on the prairie, and the people there are tough, and distant teams don't usually go deep inside.

Just saying, next to the suddenly said: “Look ahead! ”

Shao Xuan's gaze leaves the map and looks at the water ahead.

On the water ahead, there are people, each with deadly wounds.

“Was there a war ahead?” Someone asked.

“Looks pretty big. ”

The people around them were talking, and the leaders of several distant teams came together to discuss it and finally decided to take a short break from shore.

“Let's take a break and send some men to the front to find out. If there are tribes fighting, let's just avoid them, or wait, and when that's over, we're on our way.” The previous one said.

The people on the edge of the raft swayed the oars. After the raft landed on shore, Shao Xuan and the surrounding people spontaneously tied the raft to the trees or large stones on the shore, carrying their wrapped beast leather bags, etc., and no one put them on the raft, because it was impossible to say when the raft had to be abandoned to escape. After all, this is not their tribe, especially in places of war, which is particularly dangerous and easily affected by pond fish.

The leaders sent more than a dozen men each to look into the situation.

“Shao Xuan, go, see if there are any beasts around here, hunt for one.” 30686; says.

At rest, people in the team can hunt nearby as long as they don't run far. Running away, the team will leave. If they don't see anyone, they won't wait.

“All right." Shao Xuan said to the people next to him. If the team leaves, let them say hello.

After leaving the tribe, Shao Xuan ate fewer beasts. They usually hunted beasts, but where the beasts were distributed, these people did not go.

Some missed the meat.

If you don't know where to go to hunt, the food is more demanding and the average beast doesn't look like it. However, if you don't drop the team, you can catch up quickly even if you leave temporarily. Shao Xuan is not worried about it.

“Look, there's a deer over there!” 30686; refers to a direction, a tunnel of excitement. Then quickly pull out his blow arrow, poison the needle, put it in there, and approach it carefully.

He has to hurry, or the rest of the crew will get ahead of him and he won't have to eat.

Quietly approaching that way, Shao Xuan also followed. However, Shao Xuan felt that there was something wrong around him, not necessarily a crisis, but something seemed to have happened and he was a little more cautious when diving.

At approximately the distance from the deer, point the mouth of the blowing arrow out of the needle towards that side and place the other end in the entrance. While blowing, the mumps drummed.

Whoa!

The arrow needle blew quickly, and the arrow needle blew accurately into the deer.

The poison of the arrow needle is not a lethal poison, but a very powerful paralysis poison, the shot deer, the arrow needle pierces the skin of the deer, and the poison spreads.

After the deer felt attacked, he wanted to run away quickly, but he had just run two steps, and a few steps later, he fell to the ground.

“Hey, it's done! ”

excited, ready to go and pack the prey, but was pulled by Shao Xuan.

“What's the matter?” 30686; looked at Shao Xuan in confusion.

Shao Xuan did not answer, but lifted his chin in one direction.

Look at the past.

In the woods, not far from the deer, there were birds flying. Probably because of the deer running and falling.

“What happened to those birds?” Still not quite clear, think about it, helplessly: “You don't want to eat those birds, do you? Those birds aren't too small, but they're not easy to catch. With deer, what are we doing eating those birds? ”

Shao Xuan looked silently for a few seconds and said, "Those are corrupt birds. ”

“Decay? ”

“Eat the body.” Shao Xuan pointed that way, "there are still a lot of them. ”

A few birds were just startled by the deer movement, but Shao Xuan believed that it was only a small fraction, and a lot of them didn't fly at all. And the bird that just flew, it flew right down.

If they didn't attract their food, why did they stay on the ground?

Conceal the blowing arrows with a stiff complexion. I can't care less about the deer. You can let it go before you die.

Because of the wind direction, when they came here, they didn't smell anything strange, plus a lot of flowers flowering near the river bank, the scent of flowers, disturbing the sense of smell, which was not noticed at the first moment.

“Go check it out?” 30686; said.

Not waiting for Shao Xuan to answer, has pulled out the stone knife on his body, heading that way.

Shao Xuan looked around and did not find anyone else around him at the moment. He also raised his heel.

It's getting closer and closer. Due to the density of the bushes, we haven't seen the situation yet. However, as we get closer, Shao Xuan can already smell the bad smell.

In addition to that, there are movements of corrupt birds pecking, probably too much food grabbing, and fighting each other.

Carefully opened the branches that were blocked in front, and Shao Xuan saw the source of the smell.

Dead people, many dead people, are more here than those that float on the river, and, because there is no flushing of river water, there is a layer of red blood on the ground.

Their clothes are similar to those of those on the river, and they should belong to the same tribe, and in this case, they were obviously slaughtered.

“These people…”

I was about to say something, and suddenly I realized that there was an arm moving in this person's pile.

“And the living?! ”

Hearing the sound of ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;\

Birds that were supposed to peck on the ground, because they perceived the presence of living people, many of them screaming to fly, but some of them are still on the ground.

“Help... help me!” The man, ignoring the bites of the birds around him, crawled towards and Shao Xuan.

frowned and took a step back. He doesn't know these people, and he doesn't want to get involved in the tribal struggle. He's just a traveler, not a troublemaker.

“Let's leave…” I heard a sound before I finished.

Pfft!

The man who was climbing toward was pierced by a spear and nailed to death there.

Shao Xuan looked up in one direction, and there, on a tree, stood an individual.

A man in a mask.
