Chapter 223 The High Priest

Lin Yu opened his eyes abruptly, staring blankly at the dancing flames for a few seconds.

Was that just now... Guidance Dream?

She didn't have to deliberately recall, everything in the dream, every scene and every sentence was as vivid as what happened in the previous second.

Now, she also fully understands the meaning of the words that grandpa said in the dream.

The hunters who were keeping vigil at night were ordered to wake up the clan members. The first thing everyone saw when they woke up was a gesture that only Sky clan members could understand: their fingers were placed on their lips, making a hissing sound.

Not long after, everyone woke up from their sleep, and there was still no sound in the camp, only doubts, surprises, tension, anxiety and other emotions spread silently.

The chiefs of the various tribes also got together unconsciously. They have been told that the wizard has received guidance from the sky, and there are important things to discuss with them.

"The sky priest is safe!"

Lin Yu announced the first message she got from the dream.

In fact, Zhang Tian didn't say it clearly in the guidance, but he entrusted her with a dream but didn't ask for help, which in itself showed that he was safe and sound.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Since the sky priest left alone, although everyone kept silent, they were worried all the time. At this moment, their hanging hearts finally fell back into their stomachs.

Then, Lin Yu announced the second message: "Tonight, wild beasts will launch an attack. Their target is the riverside tribe. As long as we don't intervene, the wild beasts will not attack us."

The chiefs were taken aback: "Tonight? Isn't that right now? The beast has already crossed the river? When did it happen?"

"I don't know the specific situation. The guidelines say so, and it will never be wrong."

Lin Yu's tone was firm, she naturally trusted Zhang Tian's judgment 100%.

"However," she changed the topic, "That's it, just in case, we still have to be prepared to deal with it."

"Of course!"

The chiefs spoke in unison.They believe in the guidance of the sky, but they don't believe in wild beasts. The wild beasts go crazy, but they can't control themselves. That is to bite everyone!Who can guarantee that the pond fish will not be hurt?

"The riverside tribe... shall we remind them?" Lanhua asked.

Lin Yu shook his head and said: "We don't speak the language with them, so it's not easy to explain clearly, and we shouldn't do this matter. I think they will also be guided by the sky."

Huabao also said: "Since the wild beasts are heading towards the riverside tribe and have nothing to do with us, then we'd better not get involved and just manage ourselves."

Huabao has always been conservative and steady, but this time, his proposal was unanimously approved by everyone.

Lin Yu instructed: "Let all the clansmen get ready, but don't panic, and don't make too much noise, so as not to alarm the other party."

When Lin Yu convened the chiefs to discuss, the four witches from the riverside tribe also hurriedly gathered together.

"It seems that everyone has been guided." The witch looked solemn.

The Sky Priests have said that being guided shows that danger is near.She thought that after crossing the river, the crisis would be resolved, but now it seemed that she was too optimistic.

The four of them compared their dreams. Like last time, all four of them received the same guidance. This is obviously not a coincidence.

Because of this, the four were even more puzzled.

Song Luo, the witch doctor, directly asked everyone's doubts: "The ancestors told us to wake up the people immediately, as if... the beast was about to attack. Will the beast still build a boat to cross the river? Or, this time it will be Bird or bat?"

In Songluo's view, only flying animals can cross the river, but how much damage can birds do?Spray shit on them?
The other three fell into silence, and were at a loss for a moment.

The guidance this time did not clearly mention what kind of danger they were about to face and when it would happen. They only gave them an unquestionable instruction: wake up everyone immediately, keep quiet, let women and children board the ship, do not go ashore, Men ready for battle.

The order itself foreshadowed that something big was about to happen.

The forest was as quiet as death, and there seemed to be countless pairs of bloodthirsty eyes hidden in the darkness. The four of them felt as if they were being stared at by something, and suddenly felt creepy.

After a moment of silence, Miko Suzuran asked, "Are we really going to follow the instructions?"

"Is there a better way? We don't even know what's going to happen."

Jin paused, and then said, "No matter what, our ancestors must be doing it for our own good. If we follow our ancestors' instructions, we will never go wrong."

……

[Faith value: 1627]

Spending 50 faith points, they gave dreams to Lin Yu and Wu Tuo of the Riverside Tribe respectively.

The guidance given to Lin Yu was more detailed, basically explaining the ins and outs of the matter clearly, while the guidance given to the four witches was simple and rude, without explanation, and directly issued instructions.

Zhang Tian didn't want the riverside tribe to be unprepared, nor did he want them to be too well prepared, misjudge the situation, and self-righteously choose to be tough.

For today's plan, 36 plans are the best.

So just give the order directly, avoid unnecessary thinking, and just do what he said.

The wolf boy holds the yellow stone in his hand, as long as he is still on the ground, no matter where he flees, he cannot escape her palm.

Only the river is absolutely safe, the power of Huangshi can't get in, and even the most ferocious beasts can't reach it.

The boats owned by the riverside tribe should not be enough for everyone to evacuate to the river, and they can only evacuate women and children who are not good at fighting.

Sacrifice is inevitable, and it is necessary on both sides.

The wolf boy spent so much effort to assemble the troops, not to fight a real battle, but to kill some people, she couldn't explain to herself or the herd.

The Riverside Tribe can also take this opportunity to relieve the population pressure. Although it is cruel to say so, the fact is that some deaths are not necessarily a bad thing for the entire tribe.

Since this war cannot be stopped, it can only minimize casualties.

Zhang Tian finished all this calmly, then turned his head to look at the bruised woman, and struck up a conversation in wolf language.This woman has a close relationship with the wolf baby, and she is a descendant of Nuwa, so she has to win over her.

The woman had a full belly and was sitting quietly with her eyes closed, recovering her strength.

Hearing the movement, he opened his eyes to look, then shook his head helplessly, expressing again that he didn't understand.

You really don't understand wolf language?
Seeing her communicating with the wolf baby with hand gestures before, Zhang Tian guessed that there was such a possibility.

Now that it was confirmed, he was even more puzzled.

Don't they have a common language at all?
It was hard for him to imagine that two people who did not understand the language could be companions.

The wolf boy said that she understands wolf language, monkey language, and bear language, but this woman can't speak wolf language or monkey language, which shows that she is neither a wolf child nor a monkey child, so she can't be a bear child, right?
It seems that she is not very familiar with giant pandas...

The giant panda in the distance buckled its belly, kicked its short legs, turned over and went back to sleep. This group of fat balls never looked in this direction from the very beginning.

Zhang Tian had no choice but to gesture to her, wanting to ask where she came from.

However, the tacit understanding between the wolf boy and this woman is obviously not comparable to him. It was such a simple question. After gesticulating for a long time, he even danced and performed in the end, but he didn't let the other party understand.

How stupid!

Zhang Tian didn't think that his performance was too clumsy, but the other party must be too stupid and poor in understanding!
But it was not without gain. At least it proved that the other party was very patient, and she didn't find him annoying from the beginning to the end. She even smiled, the kind of smile that couldn't help it.

Beasts have always been unsmiling, and the trait of patience is also very rare in beasts. Wildness and patience are a pair of antonyms to some extent.

Zhang Tian felt more and more that this woman looked like a human being, not a beast child.

If it's human, it should have a name, right?
Zhang Tian patted his chest and said, "God."

Then he pointed at her and gave him a questioning look.

Self-introduction is the most basic communication, and everyone should be able to understand it.

The woman finally understood and patted her chest. She deliberately slowed down her speech and spit out two syllables: "Purple...smoke..."

It really is a human being!

Zhang Tian smiled.

"Purple... smoke..."

It's a bit awkward, the riverside people don't combine these two syllables, maybe it's the language habit of the rock castle people.

He repeated it several times, and he didn't feel anything when he said it slowly, but he couldn't help frowning slightly after he said it quickly: Why does this name sound familiar?

At this time, a voice suddenly sounded: "Zi Yan!"

Zhang Tian realized in an instant that these two syllables were not forest language at all, but grassland language!
This woman turned out to be the high priest of the tribe on the mountain, Zi Yan!
He was both surprised and happy, and was about to have a good chat with the other party, but saw Zi Yan got up and walked towards the wolf boy, who was calling her just now.

The burly wolf head and its younger brother stood in front of Zhang Tian very forcefully. The wolf boy obviously planned to discuss with Ziyan what to do next, and he didn't want him to follow him.

"Purple smoke!"

Zhang Tian also yelled loudly.

Zi Yan stopped, turned around and nodded gently at him, then pointed at him and said, "Heaven?"

She thought that the other party was confirming each other's names to her.

Zhang Tian grinned, and took out a bead polished by obsidian from the folds of the short skirt. When they left, the people on the mountain gave them a lot of obsidian ornaments, most of which were at Lin Yu's place. Leave a stone bead as a souvenir.

He tossed his hand.

Zi Yan caught it and took a look, then was stunned.

She never dreamed that she could see the holy stone of her hometown here!The polishing is so smooth and round, such skills are undoubtedly from the top stonemasons of the tribe!
How could he have our tribe's sacred stone?
"Purple smoke?"

The wolf boy's urging interrupted her thoughts.

She came back to her senses, put away the holy stone beads, took a deep look at Zhang Tian, ​​and then returned to normal, and went into the woods with the wolf boy to talk secretly.

The high priest of the tribe on the mountain ran so far away, no wonder the people on the mountain searched all over the mountains and couldn't find it.

Was it rescued by a wolf boy?Only the function of Huangshi can realize the round trip between the two places, and it will not be discovered.

From this point of view, the burns on her body should have been left when she sacrificed to Dashan... Why did the wolf boy save her?Did he rush to save her on purpose, or did he just pass by by chance and give her a hand?
Zhang Tian yawned and lazily stood up.

The pack of wolves dozing on the ground immediately raised their heads and stared at him vigilantly.

"Don't be nervous." Zhang Tian howled like a wolf, "I'm going to take a pee."

After putting the water back, Ziyan and the wolf boy had finished chatting, and the wolf boy was making the final mobilization—to collect the giant apes and giant pandas, and gather the wolves and monkeys.

The hour has come, and the battle is about to begin.

In this miscellaneous army composed of wolves, monkeys, and bears, the most powerful one is undoubtedly the wolf pack. They completely obey the command of the wolf boy, not to mention well-trained, at least in an orderly manner.

Unlike the apes, who are used to rolling around, and are a temporary team, it is simply delusional to expect them to be organized and disciplined.

Although giant pandas have high individual combat power, they are small in number, only twelve, and are suitable for surprise attacks, not head-on combat.

If she wanted to win the battle, she had to rely on her direct troops.

After watching it for a while, Zhang Tian understood the wolf boy's plan.

She wants to lead the pack of wolves and monkeys to attack the tribe's camp by the river head-on, while Zi Yan leads the giant apes and giant pandas to attack from underground.

He has some talent in leading troops in battle, and he also knows how to attack from both front and back...

"God! You follow me!"

Zi Yan shouted in Grassland language.She originally suspected that he was from the mountains, but she just asked the wolf boy and learned that he was not from the grassland, but from the farther north.

She wasn't sure if he could understand Prairie language, so she gave it a try.

"it is good!"

Zhang Tian responded naturally in Grassland language and trotted over.

Both the giant ape and the giant panda changed their laziness during the day, and finally exuded the aura that a large beast should have.

Zhang Tian didn't sense any hostility from these behemoths, but he still kept a distance from them as much as possible. Giant pandas are cute, but he didn't dare to show the slightest blasphemy when he thought that a slap by one of them could make him cry for a long time.

He understands steppe language!

Ziyan was very happy, and the wolf boy only knew her name and a few simple words. She hadn't spoken for a long time, so she couldn't help confirming again and again: "Do you understand Grassland language?"

"Of course, high priest, of course I understand Prairie language."

Zi Yan's eyes widened, and she said in disbelief: "You know that I am the high priest? You... you are not from the far north?"

Zhang Tian asked without answering, "Do you still remember the crow?"

"The savage?"

"He's from the same place we are, and you've set him free, haven't you?"

"So, he told you? He also taught you the grassland language? But I feel that you speak it better than him. You don't have an accent at all, just like my people!"

Zhang Tian shook his head: "Prairie language was not taught by him, but by the sky... This matter is more complicated than you think. Now is not the time to talk about it. When the matter is over, you can ask the crow, he and the leopard Liver is now migrating with us, along with a downhill man named Abba."

Zi Yan wanted to say something more, but the wolf boy's shout interrupted the conversation again.

"Purple smoke!"

The wolf boy rode on the big wolf, turned his head to look over, and shouted with the few grassland words she only knew: "Don't die! Let's go!"

After the words fell, she leaned down and pressed against the wolf's soft fur, letting out a loud wolf howl!
