There are only a dozen people in the escort team, and there are less than twenty including the children. However, it is already a strong force for just escorting five children.
Heiyan is the strongest warrior among the young people in the tribe, and Lin Haoming is also very powerful, as are the others.
In addition to the Black Rock children, there are still two boys and two girls among the five children, all of whom are the most talented among the tribe between the ages of five and ten.
It takes half a month to walk from the Dark Night Tribe to the branch hall of the Forest King Temple, and along the way, the children must walk on foot to hone their will.
The children who grew up in the forest are all very strong. Although they are only a few years old, none of them are afraid. They even feel only glory. Maybe one of them may not be chosen, but as long as they take this journey, they will return to the forest.
In the tribe, it will also become the most important training target, just like Black Rock.
There were no accidents along the way, which is normal. The Temple of the Forest King will execute anyone who commits an attack and is sent to the temple believers in the most severe manner, and will never tolerate it. Therefore, no matter how brave you are, you will not find these people.
Trouble, the biggest purpose of the escort team is to protect these children from wild beasts.
Half a month later, the group successfully crossed the mountains and arrived at the place.
When Lin Haoming saw a towering stone temple in the woods, his whole body felt a little inconsistent.
This stone palace seems to have an indescribable cultural gap with the surrounding tribes. It is tall and majestic, and it gives people a strong sense of oppression.
There are many stone huts and some wooden houses around the stone hall. At this time, some of the tribes around the branch hall have already sent people here, and some are about to arrive here.
This is not the first time for Heiyan to come here. Although he is still young, he is already very familiar with this place.
Lin Haoming knew that Heiyan was most eager to see his sister and sent his child to her to see her. However, it was said that Heiyan's sister already had a high status in the branch hall, so he could not see her casually now.
Perhaps because Sister Heiyan now has a high status in the branch temple, after reporting that the group came from the Dark Night Tribe, the accommodation allocated was pretty good. There were several rooms in the stone house near the temple, and there were several wooden houses connected, which was enough.
Everyone lives.
Although people who become temple members will not have much to do with the tribe in the future, the tribe will receive some preferential treatment if a temple member is there.
Every five years is a day for sacrifices, and it is also a day for tribes to divide some resources and territory. If some tribes are weak, they will naturally give up some places. The same is true for tribes that become stronger.
After arriving here, Lin Haoming realized that the Temple of the Forest King actually did not only have the main hall and the branch hall. The main hall that he thought before was actually just the main hall in the south, and the real main hall of the Forest King was far away.
All you have to do here is wait. At the same time, people who come will also be arranged by the people in the temple to help with some things for the sacrifices. Most of them are chores. Being able to be arranged to do these things is also a great honor for the people who come.
things.
The Dark Night Tribe was no exception. On the third day after arriving here, a divine servant from the temple came over and asked the Dark Night Tribe to help.
Lin Haoming was very interested at first, but after actually doing the work, he realized that the so-called chores were really chores. He, Heiyan and others were just helping to build the altar. Lin Haoming wanted to take the opportunity to see the temple.
Some things can't be done either.
I was thinking about whether I could use the relationship between Heiyan and his sister to sneak into the temple. When I returned to my residence, I found that there was a man and a woman guarding here.
Lin Haoming knew at a glance that the other party was really waiting for Heiyan to come back. Sure enough, the woman among them immediately came over and asked proactively: "Are you Heiyan from the Dark Night Tribe?"
"That's right, which tribe are you from?" Heiyan looked at the woman curiously and asked.
"We are from the Hunshan tribe." The woman replied with a smile.
Lin Haoming looked at the man and woman, but something strange couldn't be said. Although they were all wearing similar clothes, and the woman didn't have any makeup, they felt very different.
People in the forest consider women to be strong, especially those with a broad and powerful waist. But although this woman's waist cannot be said to be very slender, it is definitely not generous. Her appearance is also very beautiful, especially her skin is very delicate.
, it doesn’t look like it has been exposed to wind and sun in the mountains and forests all year round.
Such an image gives people a very strange feeling, but being able to come here means that they are definitely not outsiders, otherwise they will definitely be recognized immediately, let alone being able to walk around here freely.
Except for the women, although the men have strong backs and shoulders, their appearance is somewhat different from that of many people here. Most people here have their hair tied up with rattan sticks or let their hair hang straight down, but this man has short hair, a typical crew cut.
Under normal circumstances, just dressing up like this would arouse suspicion, but Heiyan had no suspicion at all. This made Lin Haoming feel more and more strange. Could it be that this was a characteristic of the Hunshan tribe.
Just when Lin Haoming was thinking this, the woman pulled Heiyan to a distance to talk. Lin Haoming wanted to follow her, but he didn't know what the woman said, so Heiyan signaled Lin Haoming not to get close.
Seeing this, Lin Haoming could only stand in the distance temporarily, watching the two people communicate, and noticed that Heiyan's expression quickly became serious as the woman spoke.
After the woman finished speaking, she didn't say anything more, but left with the man. Lin Haoming also specifically asked at this time: "Heiyan, what did they say?"
In fact, not only Lin Haoming, but others were also a little strange, but only Lin Haoming took the initiative to ask.
Heiyan immediately pulled Lin Haoming into the stone house, without calling anyone else, and said carefully: "The woman just said that someone wanted to assassinate my sister during this sacrifice, but he didn't know where the other party was hiding. He expected
I can help."
"What?" Lin Haoming felt weird when he heard this.
"Do you think it's weird?" Heiyan asked.
Lin Haoming nodded and said: "Yes, this is really weird. They are just ordinary tribesmen like us. How could they know that someone was going to assassinate your sister? And most importantly, why didn't you report it to the master of the temple?
"
"They had no way to contact the palace master and reported it to the servants below. They were afraid of leaking the news because they suspected that there might be someone among the servants who wanted to assassinate." Heiyan told their explanation.
"Heiyan, according to what they said, the people who want to assassinate your sister are most likely to be people in the temple. It is an internal struggle within the temple. Regardless of how they act, I want to know if such a thing is allowed to happen in the temple?" Lin Haoming thought.
