A long team, riding horses and holding flags, carrying baskets and carrying burdens, came southeast along the sparkling Jicang River with their backs to the setting sun.
The grass on both sides of the river is verdant, flowers are blooming, birds are gathering, animals are running, and the sky is vast and there is a primitive atmosphere of natural growth.
The melodious sound of horns echoed one after another, resounding throughout the green wilderness, bringing a sense of agility and color to this primitive and wild world.
"Gong Huo Ga Ga!"
The chatting and laughing team bypassed a dense forest on the river beach. In front of them, they could already see the mountain col where the Gonghuo people live. The Qia guide who led the way gave a surprise call.
Xu Chen was riding on his pony, wearing leather armor and a dragon-tooth scimitar hanging from his waist. He was walking with a letter wrapped around his head and forehead, and the cloak behind him was gently fluttering and rolling with the river breeze.
Feel.
Behind him, a group of young women surrounded two ponies, with a burly hunter holding the reins. Sitting on the horses were twin little witches, each wearing exquisite dresses and cloaks. Their bodies bumped slightly as they walked, and the river
The wind blew up their cloaks and hair, and their young and fragile faces were filled with joy and excitement that they had never seen before.
Since they have grown up, this is the first time for the two sisters to travel far away.
What they saw along the way gave the two sisters more experience and understanding of this world.
And Xu Chen told them about the mountains, rivers, geography and climate changes, as well as the future tribal plans and longer-term ambitions and plans, which made the twin sisters enchanted and intoxicated. They just wanted to follow him forever like this until the end of the world.
It can be said that without Xu Chen, the two of them would not be where they are today.
Of course, it would not be as powerful as the Six Clans Alliance is today.
They have studied with the great witch since they were young, and have witnessed the appearance of the Uzbek tribe and the alliance for more than ten years. Almost no changes have occurred until Xu Chen appeared, especially since the death of the great witch. In this short six months, whether it is the Ba tribe or the alliance,
The alliance of the six races has undergone earth-shaking changes.
At first, the powerful Gonghuo tribe, which even the Wu tribe feared and the great witches were extremely restrained from provoking, was defeated by Xu Chen almost silently.
After they come to hold the inheritance ceremony this time, the Ba tribe's mysterious great witch inheritance will have one more believer, and the faith of the Six Tribes Alliance will expand to more than ten tribes.
The more powerful a witch is, the more favor and protection he will receive from God.
According to Xu Chen's plan, more tribes will accept the inheritance of great witches in the future, and the total number of witches in all tribes will be dozens or even hundreds.
Such a huge belief will definitely move the true God, and maybe one day, the God will appear in front of everyone.
The little witch has accepted the inheritance of witches since she was a child, so she naturally firmly believes in the existence of gods, and is willing to dedicate her body and even her life to the gods and beliefs with unswerving determination.
Xu Chen is a lucky person favored by the gods, and he is the greatest spokesman for the gods in their minds, worthy of their following and lifelong respect.
But does Xu Chen have a spirit in his heart?
Maybe there is, maybe there isn't.
God is a conscious product of human civilization’s understanding of nature during the development process. If you believe in it, you will have it. If you don’t, you will not have it.
Xu Chen had an ambiguous attitude towards this.
God may exist, but it may also be a super civilization that surpasses the understanding of human civilization.
Just like he can travel through resurrection, it is full of confusion and unknown.
But these are not important. What is important is that he wants to live well in this fucking barbaric era.
His requirements are not high either. He lives in a big house, sleeps on a big bed, eats endless delicacies from the mountains and seas, and enjoys endless darling wives and concubines...
Well, forget about the beautiful wife and concubine.
Thinking of a group of female savages, it was as if a basin of cold water had extinguished his occasionally tumbling desires.
Not far ahead, you can already see a mountain col, and you can even hear the calls one after another.
They came in such a large force, and with the advance warning from the vanguard, the Gonghuo Tribe should have known that the large force had arrived.
Although he spent most of the journey on horseback, Xu Chen was still full of depression.
This road is really difficult, there is no way at all.
Winter and spring are fine, but if it's summer and autumn, there's basically no way to go.
If there is a boat, this journey will be much faster.
Therefore, the idea of smelting copper and iron to build a large wooden ship could no longer be suppressed from the depths of his soul.
"Woo~~"
There was a sound of horns in the mountain col, and soon a hunting goshawk flag appeared, and at the same time, dense footsteps and shouts could be heard.
Soon the two sides met two miles away from the entrance of the col.
There is a large, slightly empty area here.
The first to come forward was the vanguard composed of the Cang Clan and the Ji Clan.
"Stand still, line up, and count!"
The leader of the team issued an order, and the thirty people in the vanguard quickly lined up in front of Xu Chen.
"One quack, two quack, three quack, four quack..."
"Report to His Majesty the Witch King, everyone is here, please give me your instructions!" The leader stood at attention with his fists clasped.
At this time, everyone had dismounted. Xu Chen nodded and walked to the front of the team, crossed his legs and started lecturing with his hands behind his back.
"Stand at attention and take a rest. You have proved with your actions that you are the bravest hunters. Rafts are currently the best means of transportation and can be used wherever there are rivers. With this tool, the world will be vast in the future.
, we can go everywhere. Everyone has done a good job this time and deserves encouragement and praise. When we go back, we will discuss merit and reward..."
Not to mention the excitement of a group of vanguard troops, Xu Chen was also very excited.
It’s not easy, not one of them died, and they are all still alive and well.
Ever since this group of hunters left the Cang Clan on a raft, he had been worried all the way. When he arrived at the Qia Clan, he realized that these hunters had already set off to the Gonghuo Clan with their guides.
The water volume of the Jicang River is not small, especially the section from the Qia Clan to the Cang Clan Ji Clan. The river is complex and the water flow is fast. He has been worried that a group of savages who have just studied for a day will fall into the river and drown a few of them.
Fortunately, these savages are still very adaptable.
Looking at the many scratches on many people's faces and bodies, you can imagine that this journey was not smooth sailing, and they must have fallen into the water many times.
But in any case, their strong physical fitness ensured that this waterway test voyage was a complete success.
The progress of human civilization has always been achieved at the expense of successive brave pioneers.
The water potential of the Jicang River is far from the level of human conquest in this era.
And Xu Chen didn't have enough time to slowly teach them how to operate rowing skillfully.
First, he himself doesn’t know how to do it.
Second, he is already very familiar with the powerful physique and strong adventurous spirit of the savages of this era.
Third, one's own life is more valuable.
It's like he knew that it would be faster to ride a raft down the river to defeat the Fire Tribe, but the reason why he wouldn't do this was that he didn't want to leave his life to a group of iron-headed savages.
Because these people are not afraid of death at all, they are a barbaric batch.
When Xu Chen was giving a lecture, the six-ethnic coalition troops that followed were all lined up neatly. Under the leadership of the leaders of each team, they lined up and stood at attention without making any sound.
Several flags fluttered in the river breeze at sunset. The flag bearers and trumpeters looked solemnly, raising their heads and looking ahead.
Six horses were lined up in a row, led by the hunter's reins and gathered under the king's flag and the dragon flag.
The twin little witches each held a long witch's scepter and were guarded by a group of young women and Ba hunters wearing leather armor.
From the direction of the mountain col, groups of savages wearing furs roared towards them.
They surrounded their tribal leaders and couldn't wait to see the great witch from the Six Clans Alliance and the magical young man named Chen. Of course, they also wanted to see how powerful the other party was, and how dare they bring the great witch here.
The Gonghuo Clan came to their territory to show off their power.
Although the Gonghuo tribe is a tribe with witches and the most powerful leader of the alliance, its strength is not yet able to completely control the entire alliance, and its population only accounts for less than one-third of the alliance.
However, when these people chased the Cang people's flag and rushed to the welcoming place, they found that the whole scene was completely different from what they had imagined.
The two teams lined up neatly and were holding a strange ceremony.
Eight flags with different patterns and colors were displayed on the river bank reflected in the sunset.
Six wild horses, with strange ropes and leather tied around their necks and backs, stood in front of the procession.
All the people stood solemnly with their heads held high and their weapons in hand.
I was listening to a lecture from a young man in strange attire.
There was almost no noise in the whole scene.
The atmosphere was so majestic that all the savages who came crying and howling felt ashamed. At the same time, they felt a strong sense of oppression. The running movements and shouting voices instantly became quieter, and then stopped tens of meters away.
Hold your breath and watch carefully.
Yesterday, the leading troops of the Ji Clan of the Cang Clan came in. They were all naked and looked more embarrassed than all the hunters from the Alliance Tribe who had accepted the Great Witch's summons. They were also cautious and looked down upon.
This made all the tribal leaders and hunters with evil intentions feel a stronger sense of contempt, thinking that the strength of the Uzbek Alliance was mediocre.
But at this moment, they realized that they were wrong.
Armor, spears, vine shields, bows and arrows, flags, war horses, almost none of them have been seen.
The neat team, serious atmosphere, and mighty momentum exude a frightening and terrifying atmosphere, which is extremely domineering.
The Gonghuo Alliance arrived with more and more tribes, and the number of people was getting larger and larger, but the six tribes coalition troops lined up seemed to turn a blind eye to the onlookers in front of them. Instead, they all listened intently to the instructions of the young leader among them.
