Early the next morning, Ren and Susanna got up on time. He didn't do anything, at most he touched a few times.
The female knight's eight-pack abs feel good, Kesha also has them, and her skin is smoother and more supple.
After a quick breakfast, the three of them continued galloping.
After riding for several hours, a small canyon appeared in front of Ren and the others.
"Going past here is the gathering area of aboriginal people. You may encounter various dangers!"
Susanna specially warned: "You have to be careful. Some Kangao people's hunting teams will shoot cold arrows as soon as they see outsiders."
"Can't we communicate?" Ren frowned and asked.
"We can communicate. The higher-ups in the tribe are still willing to do some business with outsiders. Of course, the premise is that you are strong enough and will not be swallowed up by them.
However, there are not many people in a tribe who can speak natural language. You must always be vigilant before meeting high-level officials such as tribal chiefs. Many Kangao people are very hostile to outsiders." Susanna explained.
Renn smiled slightly. He had now reached the peak of the third level and was not afraid of a small indigenous tribe.
Of course they won't go looking for those big tribes, that would be very dangerous.
He turned to look at Dennis: "Scholar Wrynn, can you fight?"
Dennis chuckled: "It's okay, I've gone to find other indigenous people before, but I've never been to the territory of the Kangao people.
There were also some indigenous women who tried to catch me for breeding because of my thin skin and tender flesh. Fortunately, my fists were pretty strong and I kept my moral integrity."
Are you so brave? The corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and Ren signaled Susanna to go.
Susanna did not hesitate, she clamped her legs together, and the newly purchased white horse neighed and rushed into the canyon.
Behind, Ren and the scholar were more vigilant and quickly followed.
In Renn's mind, some information that he had collected before emerged.
The Kangao people, who are indigenous people deep in the Pugni Plain, are among the primitive tribes and master career paths such as [Witch Doctor] and [Totem Warrior].
Of course, the path of the [Totem Warrior] mastered by the indigenous people is quite different from the fifth-level extraordinary system popular in the mainland.
The career path of [Witch Doctor] is also very unique, and it has spread in a small area.
This profession is good at cultivating exotic animals and plants and using them to make various potions with magical effects.
After thinking, the three of them rushed out of the canyon on horseback.
"Is this the gathering area for Aboriginal people?"
Ren glanced around the surrounding scenery. Except for a few cacti, it was no different from the outside.
Many of the cacti here are planted by the indigenous people. They can be used as water storage materials and are edible. They are very popular among the Kangao people.
However, Ren's spiritual sense became slightly tense, which meant that the danger here was higher.
"Yes, be careful with the natives!"
Susanna reminded again: "If Charles IV hadn't sent people to purge several times a hundred years ago, they would often rob outsiders. The men would serve as coolies and the women would be reproductive tools."
"So cruel?" Ren asked with a smile.
"Yes, they are not only cruel to outsiders, but also to their own people. It is said that the Kangao people have such a tradition.
Young people will take advantage of the unpreparedness of the old people and kill those old people who have little labor or are sick and weak with an ax from behind, so as to reduce the burden of food." Scholar Dennis interjected.
He had studied a lot of information about the Kangao people before and understood a lot of their cultural customs. This time, he came to conduct an on-the-spot investigation.
Ren was stunned and muttered: "This is not respectful to the elderly at all."
Susanna sneered: "Not only that, their moral and ethical concepts are also far from ours.
In a Kangao family, women's status is very low and they are not even allowed to serve on the table during meals."
"But people in Kangao don't care. If they have more children, unhealthy children will be abandoned early.
Sometimes children are even encouraged to compete and the fittest survive," Suzanne added.
The Kangao people are not monogamous. Strong men or totem warriors can marry several wives, but some men cannot even find a woman in their life.
Ren felt it was really eye-opening: "Come on, you don't respect the old and love the young, and you don't have equality between men and women. You even marry close relatives. It's true that the soil and water support each other."
Scholar Dennis smiled slightly: "If you visit more indigenous tribes, you will find that in addition to eating, drinking, sleeping, and reproducing offspring,
People from different cultures have very different morals, etiquette, and values. Things that you think are exaggerated may seem normal to others. Customs that are common to indigenous people may be difficult for outsiders to accept and understand.”
"It's because I'm ignorant." Ren admitted this frankly. He became a time traveler just after finishing junior high school and his cultural level was not high.
After he came to this world, he went to the library every day just to recharge his batteries.
"Ren, I will go negotiate with them later. You two should not talk nonsense, lest you violate any taboos.
For example, you must not say the word ghost in front of the Kangao people, they will..."
Just in the middle of her words, Susanna suddenly looked alert, pulled out the revolver in her trouser pocket, and turned on the safety.
"Bang!"
There was a gunshot from the southwest direction.
"There's someone! And he's an outsider!"
Susanna said with certainty: "The indigenous Kangao people generally do not use guns. They think they are creations of the devil and can only use primitive bows, arrows and javelins!"
"Poacher?"
Scholar Dennis' first reaction was that some sneaky hunters came to hunt rare animals in the gathering area or steal resources such as red heart grass.
"How about it? Do you want to see it?"
Susanna asked.
"Let's go and check out the situation!"
Renn didn't want to cause trouble, but things seemed a little strange.
Scholar Dennis wanted to go. He was very curious and nodded in agreement.
After the three of them rushed up a hillside together, they saw a brutal fight.
The attacking party was a group of cowboys riding horses and holding shotguns and revolvers. They wore dark scarves with a white skull arm pattern embroidered on them.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! On the other side are the tribal aborigines. These aborigines are bare-chested and have many colorful stripes on their bronze skin.
They were unkempt and armed with cold weapons such as spears and bows to fight.
The balance of victory undoubtedly tipped towards the group of cowboys, and it didn't take long before it turned into a crushing match.
"They are the men of 'Ghost Hand' Marcello..."
Susanna just glanced at it and signaled Ren and Dennis to slowly back away. The three of them led the horses behind, and then squatted down to watch the battle.
Susanna gritted her teeth and said: "This is the logo of the Skeleton Gang!"
"Ghost-hand Marcello? A fourth-level [Fighting Master], the most wanted criminal with the highest bounty?" Renne immediately recalled: "Are his men so powerful in combat?"
"Of course, the Skeleton Gang he controls has hundreds of people, and they are all a group of desperadoes! They rob caravans, sell opium, and lend usury... they do almost all evil!"
Susanna's expression was one of disgust. Her boyfriend was killed by the Skeleton Gang.
"But why did they come to the Kangao area and massacre the indigenous people?" Renn felt a little strange.
Although the Skeleton Gang is notorious, they actually have a bottom line, although it is extremely low.
For example, you cannot commit horrific massacres, indiscriminately kill innocent people in towns, conduct large-scale human trafficking, or rob steam trains, etc.
A real gangster can only be called a real gangster when he mixes up to the point where there is no distinction between black and white and takes both sides.
But the ghost-hand Marcello seems to have gone crazy recently, and even robbed people on a large scale. Not only the caravans, but also many travelers with little money were captured.
Under normal circumstances, gangsters will not make things difficult for those who are poor and have no money.
"That rumor may be true. Marcello has taken refuge with the demon."
