Chapter 15 Pathfinder
The elders in the tribe attach great importance to the news brought by Zheluo. Some people want to open up the Gwind Gorge again, which is mixed news for the Gwind Tribe. In the end, happiness or sorrow actually depends entirely on what the person doing this is and what attitude he will be towards them.
The tribe of Newind does not want to integrate into the outside world? How could it be that it is too difficult and difficult to defend the tribe's path to rely entirely on those tribe members who are not suspected of in appearance to obtain food, medicinal materials and other living needs. And when the tribe members who have been scattered gradually have a foundation outside, they can make themselves live a better life and have new families and relatives, how can they provide more resources for the tribe while keeping secrets? After many tribe members went out, after a period of time, they no longer contacted the tribe after taking root in the State of Chu. This is also a problem. After all, it is difficult for the tribes to guard the State of Newind to provide anything to the members, whether it is goods, supplies, or the simplest and most straightforward force protection. However, they are not local people in their hometowns, and the State of Chu is a country that attaches great importance to the clans.
If it was Yue Kingdom, perhaps they could still rely on Yue Kingdom's unique atonement army to use the sacrifice of one generation to win something for the next generation, but that was difficult. Before, people from the Newind Tribe had done this, but were disrupted by the Rao family who had heard the news. Almost all of those people died on the battlefield, and thanks to this, the fact that the Newind Tribe continued to live in the gorge was not exposed.
Some lowly foreigners want to live a good life here, but they are not afraid of sacrifice and dedication, but they do need a powerful asylum.
"Zheluo, that guy really let go of the shadow lizard's egg?" The great elder Solkin asked incrediblely: "Are he after he saw the changes in the shadow lizard with his own eyes?"
"Yes, looking at that feeling, he actually regrets it. He must have considered taking away the Shadow Lizard, but in the end he gave up."
"for what?"
"I don't know, looking at the other party who can control a smart monster like the Jade Spotted Tiger and the Golden-lined Bird, you may be more familiar with the habits of the monsters and don't dare to raise them rashly."
"I rarely see such people. Although they may not be greedy, they don't throw everything into the bowl." The elder said with some emotion.
"If they really come to re-diggle the Gorge, no matter how slow the progress is, they will encounter us sooner or later. We cannot stay in the Wasteland and never go out? We have to go out for food and drinking water. The traffic with the outside world must also pass through some of the Gorges. Elder, what should we do?"
The elder is already seventy years old. The long time and extremely monotonous life give him time to think about various problems, even the most tiny issues. His skin is dark, like any typical people from the Wind Tribe. Although his hair is completely white, he can still see clusters of spiraling hair tips. The elder thought for a while and said, "They haven't started exploring the gorge yet?"
"It shouldn't be there. From the entrance, there are almost a hundred miles here. Even if they are all very skilled, they won't be able to find it so quickly."
The elder shook his head and said, "Of course it's not about whether they can find this place, but whether they really will explore this passage."
"What does this mean?" Zheluo didn't understand.
"The Gorges of the Wind Gorges is a channel for communication between the two countries. Now that the two countries are at war, they don't know how the front line is fighting, at least many goods exchanges between the two countries should be cut off. The Gorges of the Wind Gorges of the Wind Gorges are not a good channel for smuggling. However, if you only use it for smuggling, it would be a little too perseverance to open such a channel. Moreover, who knows how long it can take for two countries to fight? It will take at least two years to open this channel, clean up the silt, open up stations, water sources, hoard some food, etc., even at a minimum, two or three thousand people will be required to maintain this channel. Either they are senior leaders of the Chu State and have enough information to know that this time it takes at least five or six years. Only in this way can they recover such a large amount of investment. Or they have other intentions."
"You mean... they might be using this passage to transport troops?"
"Haha, I can't say, nor can I tell which country's soldiers are transported."
Zheluo said in surprise: "Can it be from Yue?"
"Actually, it's normal. Compared with Chu, people from Yue are more familiar with this gorge." The elder said: "Actually, this is a good opportunity."
"Good opportunity?" Zheluo asked in confusion: "What do you mean? If the people of Yue and Chu open up the gorge, will they be the same? Moreover, even if the people of Yue come here and don't have many people, how can they manage the gorge well?"
"It is because there are not many people that we become important." The Great Elder said with a smile.
"I understand." Zheluo was pointed out by the Great Elder's words. "The people of Yue should know the existence of our people, right? In the past..."
"Yes, some people have participated in the Atonement Army before, and they should know that there are many people in the gorge. Moreover, there should be no death. However, it is hard to say what will be treated by us."
"What if it's the Rao family...?"
"If it were the Rao family, they would be more careful in order to make us feel their sincerity for the past. Moreover, the Rao family now should not be mixed in this matter, and it is unlikely." The elder said: "Zheluo, I want you to try to deal with them. It is best to follow them and see how they are. If you can treat them as friends, it will be up to you to decide where our tribe goes. If you think it will harm our tribe, then you must be prepared..."
"Yes, elder." Zheluo bowed deeply to the elder. What the elder said was not obscure. If the other party's intentions were not good, Zheluo would either find a way to escape by himself or be prepared to keep the secret. If there was no news from Zheluo for a period of time, then they would naturally prepare for the worst outcome. The remaining hundreds of people in the entire tribe might have to rely on a few loyal tribe members to keep a low profile, or even completely disappear.
Of course, Zheluo would not think there was any problem with this. As the next generation leader who was focused on cultivating the tribe, he had always had such responsibility. The tribe was too small and had few resources, so they could only cultivate a stronger warrior like him.
After leaving the Great Elder's tent, Zheluo returned to his small tent. The shadow lizard seemed to be full and fell asleep at the door of the tent, as if he had completely forgotten the fact that he had run out to lay eggs before. Zheluo sighed. As a partner and mount, this guy was sometimes a bit unreliable. He carefully took out two boxes of shadow lizard eggs and sent one box to the third elder who was responsible for raising monsters, and another box. He hesitated for a while, but continued to put it back in the warm wooden box. It would be good if the tribe could feed six people, and it would be good to have one of them. He used these six shadow lizards as eggs, perhaps as a gift to express his loyalty?
After returning to the tent again, Zhero slept for three hours before being awakened by the crisp and tender sound at the door of the tent.
"Brother Zheluo!" Xiao Geersang calculated that he was Zheluo's junior brother and a very talented practitioner. Although he was less than ten years old, he was almost able to enter the Body Encyclopedia. Even if he was placed in the big cities and forces outside, this was a very amazing achievement, let alone on the tribe.
Geersan said happily: "Brother Zheluo, have you returned from Yong'an? How many days can you stay here this time?"
"We have to leave today." Zheluo patted the little guy's shoulder and said, "I'm going out for a long time this time. You have to practice martial arts well. Don't be like this after you come back. If you can't reach the round body stage, Shadow Lizard will ignore you."
Gersan scratched his head with some trouble and said, "The third elder just said you brought six eggs. He turned around and asked me to pick one and start raising it. However, it will take a long time."
"Come on. After I leave, I will leave everyone's safety to you."
"Brother Zheluo, don't worry!" Geersang said with a strong aura.
Later, Zheluo rode the shadow lizard away from the tribe camp and headed for the mountain pass. He also paid attention to various situations along the way, and cleaned up the obvious traces left by the tribe when he went out to collect and hunt. It was not until noon that he arrived at the mountain pass again.
Just at the mountain pass, he heard deafening sounds. It turned out that Chengbang was instructing everyone to start cleaning the stones together. Seeing their energetic appearance, Zheluo was still a little shocked. The movement of these people is really strong.
However, Zheluo did not dare to get close this time, but let the shadow lizard take him to hide in a hole on the cliff at a long distance. Although he promised the elder to contact these people, he did not say when it was. He felt that it would be better to observe carefully first. If the other party was the kind of person who knew it was unreliable at first glance, then there was no need to take risks.
Zheluo has always been very cautious in his words and actions. When he occasionally leaves the gorge and goes to Yong'an or other cities, he is always cautious and never reveals that he is a pretty good warrior. The tribe's practice methods are fragmented and obtained through various channels, and it is hard to say that it is a system. Although he also knows the division of periods such as round body, excitement, etc., Zheluo does not know very clearly what stage he is in. Of course, he is invincible in the tribe, but what about outside?
Zheluo looked at the people in the distance and continued their spiritual power wantonly, and released one amazingly powerful ultimate move after another, which was a little itchy. (To be continued. Please search for Astronomy, the novel is better, updated and faster!)
