Chapter 51 [51] Arrival

When the climb returns, the message is sent back.

The tribe of the Tushi tribe already knew that the war would come tomorrow.

Even so, there is no sense of urgency in the valley, women with older children, tanning fur as usual;
Young children ran and played, sang pinyin alphabet songs, and ran to the old man from time to time to show them off, and they were rewarded with a small handful of sugar, which they put in their mouths with their fingers, and a bright smile bloomed on their faces.

Is this what war looks like?
This is far more joyful than the festival of worshiping the "God of Harvest".

It has been many days since the dozen or so chiefs and guards surrendered. Even though they have long been used to seeing all kinds of abnormalities in the tribe, they still have some absurd feelings when facing this situation.

However, they knew very well that the ending was already doomed.

Perhaps that is why they are restless.

Because their parents, wives and children are now among the chief tribes; their brothers are among the army that came to conquer.

The mood at this time was about the same as that of those Chilu elders a few days ago.

Seeing that Daniel led the chieftain's mission to arrive, he was so frightened that all his souls trembled.So he couldn't help but force the bull down to the ground, begging for forgiveness from our lord.

He was so afraid that the whole family would be implicated precisely because of one sinner.

And their current situation is far worse than that of the Red Deer Department;

Daniel just arrived with a dozen chief missions.

The elders of the Red Deer Department can join together and subdue a big bull, even if they kill him as a sinner, they will sacrifice for the true god.

But their brothers came with an army of thousands of people.

Could it be that a dozen of them are going to check and balance an army of thousands of people?

The night was dark, but they didn't feel sleepy at all, they gathered together and sat blankly.

Everyone's mood sank to the bottom.

And after a long time, a voice sounded from among them: "My brothers and sisters, I am the oldest, and maybe I will die in a few years from illness, war, and snow; tomorrow the war will start, and I will go to persuade Serve the chieftain, and offer your allegiance to our lord."

Everyone was shocked when they heard this.

"You will die!"

"The chief will not spare the traitor!"

"Just like us who were ignorant and ignorant back then, if we hadn't met our Lord, how could we know that there is a true God descending in this world?"

The man waved his hand, and smiled heartily, with a somewhat free and easy smile: "My heart has already belonged to my lord. Even if I die, I will pass to the gate of life."

"I am not just begging for forgiveness for our people, but also to prove to our Lord the piety of our people."

"I, 'the howler who frightens away the wild wolves', am willing to die to prove my sincerity. If I can exchange my death for the sins of my clansmen to be forgiven by the Lord, this is my greatest wish at the moment, especially my glory!"

"My brothers and sisters! Please remember my name? Pray for me after I die, so that my soul can take the oak tree spirit boat and arrive at the gate of death; please also take care of my wife and children , treat them as close relatives!!"

At this moment, the dozen or so people were all shocked, iron-blooded warriors, silently shedding salty tears.

"Do not!!"

Someone suddenly stood up and made a resolute voice——

"I don't want to miss such an opportunity! I would like to follow you, just like you, to prove my sincerity to the Lord, to beg forgiveness for you and my people, and to wash away their sins!"

The old man's warrior looked at him in astonishment, and finally laughed for a while, and hugged each other: "Okay! Then let us die together!"

However, someone stood up again, threw the spear and steel knife that had been put aside before them, and said——

"Everyone, please hand over to my son the magic weapon bestowed by our lord, and tell him that he must dedicate his body and soul to our lord; open up territories for our lord, spread the glory of balance across the earth, For the service I failed to complete, he will redouble his dedication to the Lord for me!"

Say it.

He resolutely embraced the two of them.

The three of them looked at each other, and all they saw were satisfied smiles, without any fear or sadness.

Such a situation quickly infected everyone like a virus.

The rest of the people looked at each other, and finally stood up, followed the example of the former, and dropped their weapons: "I am willing to go together!"

"I am also willing to go with you!"

"Hahaha, and me!"

"We dedicate our devout hearts, and the Lord will surely forgive the sins of our people and bestow rewards on them, just like everyone in the Tushi tribe, to enjoy true joy and peace."

More than a dozen people hugged each other, smiling at each other, looking forward to it.

The low mood earlier was gone now.

……

early morning.

Tushi Valley woke up from a deep sleep. After washing, they spontaneously went to the altar to worship. Then they each took up their weapons, arranged them according to tribes and war groups, and waited quietly.

The old women were not to be outdone, holding stone axes, daggers or stone spears, and the children even held up wooden sticks, and their immature faces squeezed out a fierce look.

Outside the valley, a knight returns with a steed.

He was picked up by climbing the mountain, and then hurried to the god's residence to worship and kowtow.

Zhou Li'an had already arrived, just waiting for news from the scouts.

"My lord, at dawn the army of the chief tribe passed through the crocodile beach without difficulty."

"When the moon rises, it will definitely reach beyond my Tushi Valley."

After hearing this, the elders were all moved.

coming!finally come!
This will be the beginning of my lord's conquest of the earth, and it should be recorded in the murals for future generations to admire and remember.

Climbing the mountain also ignited his blood. He rested overnight and was full of energy.

Now the voice of shouting is deafening:
"My lord, climb the mountain to fight, and lead my lord's most valiant warriors to win this victory for you! Destroy those ignorant people and make them listen to the decree of balance!"

In Zhou Li'an's heart, he was naturally excited, but he never showed any joy.

Facing the frenzied crowd, he just showed a faint smile.

With a wave of his hand, he performed miracles.

When everyone saw the things that appeared out of thin air, they were completely attracted... More clearly, this is a creation of God, and it must be related to this great war.

Xuenv is "well-informed" and doesn't know these big boxes.

She was the only one who dared to ask: "Master, what is this?"

"No need to ask, carry it out of the valley."

Everyone lowered their heads, looked humble, and immediately followed suit.

Even if Zhou Li'an didn't tell them to handle it with care, they were extremely careful. Three or four people were carrying a thing, but they took every step very cautiously.

Come out of the valley.

Zhou Li'an arranged the equipment on both sides of the valley.

The four large boxes faced the open land outside the valley in an arc, and the wires were connected, and the electric starter of the generator was turned on, and the engine was turned off after confirming that it was running smoothly.

All the clansmen watched quietly from a distance, they were extremely curious, but kept silent and did not dare to approach.

Zhou Li'an looked at Xuenv beside him——

"Snow Girl."

Xue Nu immediately knelt down and said, "My lord, Xue Nu listens to your decree."

"Let all the clansmen clean their bodies and put on clean clothes, give sweet sugar to children, sweet fruit to elder women, and tender meat to my warriors."

"Under the moonlight tonight, you should light a bonfire, sing joyful songs and dance cheerfully for me; call for the coming of balance."

"Then whoever praises My Name will have victory and joy."

"Those who blaspheme and defile my name will be annihilated by God's punishment!"

Say it.

He leaned close to Xue Nu's ear, pointed at the equipment, and explained something...

After that, he waved his hand again and bestowed a mountain of fresh melons and fruits.

Whoosh.

He disappeared.

All around, the clansmen had already knelt down.

And when the gods left, no one dared to stand up.

Xue Nu stood up, walked in front of the crowd, looked down at them arrogantly, and passed down the oracle in a deep voice.

When her words are silent.

People were shocked at first, and soon began to revel.

They began to busy build the altar, began to collect firewood to build a bonfire, and began to assemble hands to fetch water and heat up the sweat room.

The women found clean clothes.

The men put down their sharp swords.

The child is eager to see the fruit.

There were only a dozen or so people who were out of tune with all this. They stopped at the entrance of the valley for a long time, looking at the distant horizon, silent.

In the end, they still looked at each other with a smile, and turned back to the valley to work for the tribe.

……

Plains at dusk.

A large army composed of thousands of aboriginal tribes with different costumes and messy weapons was stationed, and the people looked disheartened and embarrassed.

The long journey for many days has greatly consumed their energy and energy.

No fancy meat.

Only the hard-to-swallow, choking rations needed to be taken with water.

There are no eaves to shelter them from the wind and rain, so they are exposed to the wind and the sun, which makes them emit an unpleasant stench.

Most of them are frowning, with the boredom and complaints accumulated in the brows for many days.

among the ranks.

A rather robust elder was the tribal elder who went out with the army; seeing all this, he came to the chief's side——

"The warriors of all ministries are mostly sad, which is a harbinger of disloyalty."

The chief is an extremely powerful middle-aged man. The skin and flesh on one side of his face are twisted and collapsed together, which seems to be a scar left after being bitten by some kind of wild beast, making him look extremely fierce.

"I am the leader of the Modoc people, a great hero who led them to defeat their enemies; without me, there would be no stability in the various ministries!"

"The ministries have sworn to me by their totem gods!"

"Those who are unfaithful will be sentenced to death for treason!!"

"Burn their bodies with fire, and die in wailing!"

After hearing this, the guards and warriors around them all felt the same hatred, and stared at those warriors who were far less brave than them.

The elder was shocked: "Chief, don't take your anger out on the ministries!!"

"You have to know that only the traitors of Tushi are your enemies!"

"All the ministries were conscripted by the war order, abandoned their livelihoods, temporarily left their parents, wives and children, and traveled long distances for several days and nights, without food, clothing and peace. Tiredness, hunger and longing will naturally make them feel resentful!"

"But the pent-up resentment and resentment are just the firewood that ignites the raging fighting spirit."

"Chief, you must not despise or humiliate them. They are your subordinates. Instead, you must encourage them, reward them, and promise to distribute the booty of the map stone to them."

"Tushi's weapons will be theirs to protect the clan's family."

"The slaves of Tushi will hunt for them plenty of food, so that they will not have to die hard."

"The women of Tushi will bear children for them and increase the population."

The elder looked into the distance, and could already vaguely see the location of the cliff and the chasm. "Tonight, they will be baptized in blood, and the glory of victory will shine."

"Under your leadership, attack the valley! Plunder the fresh and tender meat of Tushibu to satisfy our hunger, eat the most beautiful women in Tushibu to wash away our fatigue, and enslave the mighty warriors to serve them as masters!"

"Hatred should be concentrated on Tushi people!"

"They are rebels, the cause of this war, unforgivable sinners!!!"

When the words fall.

The chief's gaze gradually became hot...

The elders of the tribe are the wisest of the wise.

Even if he is the bravest leader, if there is only bravery, but without vicious and sharp eyes like a falcon, and no brains like a raven, any powerful tribe will gradually decline.

He stood up, patted the elder on the shoulder fiercely, then walked to the center of the crowd, shouting loudly——

"Warriors! Tushi's rebellion is ahead!"

"Tonight, I will lead you to break through the settlements of the rebels, plunder their fat meat, and wear soft clothes."

"I will reward you with weapons and furs, let the warriors of Tushi become your slaves, and let the most magnificent women nourish your tired bodies!"

"I will swear...everything gained by destroying the rebels will be rewarded to the bravest warriors of all tribes!"

"Warriors!"

"Let's go! Follow me to destroy this group of despicable rebels, enjoy the victory and triumph, and let your people feel the glory and pride of you!!"

The chief drew out the copper knife and pointed to the cliff and rift valley in the distance.

The chief's guards also roared, inspiring——

"Kill all the traitors!"

"Everything of the traitor will belong to us!"

The people who looked sad a moment ago couldn't help but move; they gradually strengthened their expressions, and a little bit of strength was gathering again...

The irritable warriors finally responded, and they all dropped the unpalatable rations in their hands——

"I want to eat meat, fat meat!"

"I want the most moist woman to soothe my tired body!"

"Kill! Follow the great chief, kill those rebels, and plunder all their wealth!"

The roar of thousands of people tore apart the loneliness at dusk at this moment, shaking the world.

The mighty army set off.

In the sky where they gathered, there seemed to be a thick murderous intent, which was gradually merging with the night, rushing towards the distant valley.

……

Outside the Tushi Valley, there were also crowds of people gathering.

Men, women and children, all looked refreshed after bathing and changing clothes; they placed melons and fruits, cooked barbecued meat, and the shape and smell of the food made everyone's index finger move.

There were endless laughter and laughter, it seemed that a victory carnival had already started ahead of schedule.

"They're here!"

"It's the battle group of the chief tribe!"

A shout sounded without warning.

The atmosphere of laughter came to an abrupt end, and he couldn't help but look into the distance.

On the dark horizon, there is a huge black shadow looming indistinctly, forming a strong contrast with this bright carnival dinner.

Silence quietly began to permeate the crowd.

When the dark scene gradually approached, the young children were the most sensitive, feeling fear and crying.

The women frowned slightly.

The young warriors looked at each other, wondering if they should take up the magic weapon that our lord gave them and prepare for battle.

However, when Xuenv took the elders out of the valley.

The tense atmosphere of the previous moment gradually dissipated like ice melting.

The snow girl is dressed in a costume.

The patriarch climbed the mountain and the elders were behind her, and even a group of accompanying guards did not hold weapons.

She stood on the high platform, glanced at the enemy from a distance, then turned around and shouted loudly——

"People of Balance!"

"With a pious heart, call for the coming of our Lord Balance!!"

"now--"

"Whoever praises the name of our Lord has victory and joy."

"Those who blaspheme and defile the name of our Lord will be annihilated by God's punishment!"

The words fall.

Everyone knelt down, and the deep prayers gathered into a vast sound.

Xue Nu took a deep breath, looked at the place where the master disappeared today, and looked at the thousands of troops that were getting closer and closer in the distance.

It would be a lie to say that there were no throbbing waves.

But despite the rapid heartbeat, she still silently recited the master's name, trying to calm down her restless mood.

Came to two strange things.

"The master said, hold down here, and then... count to five!"

"One, two, three, four, five!"

Nourishes—

Boom, rumble.

The huge vibration and noise startled Xue Nu, and the thing began to emit faint black smoke, filling an unpleasant stench.

Xue Nu coughed due to the breath, but she still endured and opened another thing, and then left as if fleeing.

Come to the front of the crowd, kneel down, pray, and pray like all tribesmen.

The bursts of sound just covered the restless sound of the two machines, and no one paid attention to those strange things.

distance.

The chief's army has come a thousand meters away.

The scattered teams began to gather, as if they were about to charge towards the valley.

The forefront of the crowd.

The Chief let out a maniacal laugh.

He held up the copper knife, pointed to the distance to light the bonfire, and bowed to the crowd:

"Hahahaha!"

"I once sent the most valiant guards, to the despicable rebels, throw down the battle order!"

"Warriors, your prey has kowtowed to you for mercy!"

"They fear your valor, your spears and your blades!"

"Go! Go eat the fat meat!"

"Enslave them!"

"Enjoy their wives and daughters!"

"This is me, the greatest leader of the Modoc people, giving you a reward!!"

　I owe 5 more, and I will resume 2 more tomorrow, and then slowly start to make up if I have enough energy... My stomach still hurts a little, I will bear it.
