Outside Trout Village, Black Wolf walked out of hundreds of personal guards. He looked at the warrior leader opposite and asked in surprise.
"God bless you! Huitu Puap, it turns out it's you! Why are you here?!"
Huitu Puap looked at the sudden appearance of General Black Wolf with a look of surprise. He was exiled to the southernmost boundary of the kingdom. Not only did he have to guard the only entrance to the sea for the kingdom, but he also had to build camps, build houses, and store some wood and food.
.These tasks cannot be completed by one person. Therefore, His Majesty gave him 300 newly returned southern warriors to suppress the Tekos people on both sides of the river mouth, collect tribute from the villages, and recruit local men.
"God bless you! Your Majesty asked me to guard the mouth of the Tarsus River. I have just arrived."
Huitu Puap answered cautiously with a smile on his face. Speaking of which, he and the old militiamen also snatched the head of the chief from the hands of the black wolf, and now that they are living here, they cannot afford to offend them.
"Dear Commander of the Black Wolf Army, why did you come from the west? Chief Chimali is at war with the kingdom, and I am on guard here day and night. I heard that a large army was coming, and I thought the Tekos Alliance was sending troops to conquer..."
"Haha! Chimali is finished! I came from the west for seven hundred miles, burned the Hand Snake City on fire, and confiscated the food along the way. His army has no food and will soon collapse!"
Black Wolf laughed and spoke happily.
"Ah! Burnt Hand Snake City? Traveled around seven hundred miles? He is indeed an unparalleled Black Wolf General!"
Huitu was shocked and turned pale. Only Hei Lang could pull off such a bold strategy.
Hearing this, Hei Lang was confident and proud. Then, his eyes sparkled and he was filled with fighting spirit.
"Huitu, where is your Qincongcan camp? I have three thousand warriors, plus your two thousand warriors. It is not impossible to defeat Haenyeo City in the southeast!"
"Ah!...I, I...don't care about Qin Congcan camp now..."
Huitu looked a little embarrassed and answered in a low voice.
"Gulamo assassinated His Majesty. I had received benefits from him before, but I couldn't catch him to apologize..."
"Um?!"
Hei Lang's face was filled with anger, he pulled out the bronze sword with a "dang" sound, and quickly placed it on Huitu's neck.
"I have also heard about the assassination of His Highness by the Zicao family. I didn't expect that you would also be involved!"
"Ah...no, no, not..."
Huitu's face suddenly turned pale, he screamed in aggrievedness, and did not dare to move. He managed to save his life from His Majesty's hands, and if he was chopped down by the black wolf here, he would die too unjustly.
"Dear Commander of the Black Wolf Army, I did not participate! I am loyal to His Majesty, and Your Majesty is my only king! The Lord God has witnessed that I burned down the Zicao family's manor with my own hands!..."
"Well... I'm sorry you don't have the guts!"
Black Wolf glared angrily, stared at Huitu for a moment, and then lowered his bronze sword.
"I have mobilized your army. How many men and ships do you have now?"
"...Three hundred warriors, seventy canoes."
Huitu pursed his lips and lowered his head to answer.
"This is too little!"
Hei Lang frowned. It was a bit risky for more than 3,000 people to attack Haenyeo Castle. The main reason was that the opponent's information was unknown, their strength was unknown, and they were not familiar with the terrain... He thought for a moment and could only sigh.
"That's all, let them go first."
"...Commander of the Black Wolf Army, are you planning to return to the kingdom next?"
"Yeah. But before returning to the kingdom, I have to do one more thing."
A smile appeared on the corner of Black Wolf's mouth.
"Go to the nearby sacred mountain and carve a monument to record your achievements!"
"The sacred mountain west of Trout Village?"
Huitu was a little surprised. He heard his southern warriors mention it.
"I heard that there is a terrible mountain god there who can control thunder and lightning. Whenever the dry season comes, the mountain god will fall into a deep sleep after receiving the blood sacrifice. Whenever the rainy season comes, the mountain god wakes up, and thunder and lightning will continue to fall.
Hit the sacred mountain! And once the mountain god becomes angry, he will throw thunder and lightning out to destroy the offending person..."
"Um?"
Black Wolf was slightly startled and looked at the personal guard Mavik beside him. Mavik never said anything about this matter.
Mavik felt a chill in his heart, and piety appeared on his face.
"The Lord God is supreme and has infinite power! Boss, the mountain god here is just an unknown evil god! For the glory of the Lord God, we must destroy the evil god's priest and cut off his blood sacrifice!"
Black Wolf pondered for a moment and nodded affirmatively.
"Mavik, you are right! Let us go and take a look!"
Then, he glanced at Huitu.
"Huitu, will you go with us?"
"...go!"
The three of them chatted for a while, then took two hundred canine warriors and headed straight for the Holy Mountain. The villager Ma Huo's face fell, he looked at the people leaving and murmured.
"This... the priest said that if you offend the sacred mountain and the altar, the mountain god will be angry... If the mountain god is angry, it is a good thing for you to die, but don't harm the village..."
The group of people were all warriors who had experienced hundreds of battles, and they walked very fast. It didn't take long to travel ten miles and reach the sacred mountain close to the mountain range.
Hei Lang squinted his eyes and looked up the mountain. It was said to be a sacred mountain, but it was actually just a hill over a hundred meters high, incomparable to the peaks farther north.
On the top of the sacred mountain, there is a black stone altar, surrounded by many traces of lightning strikes. Most of the mountain is normal soil, with occasional reddish-brown spotted stones that sparkle in the sun. From halfway up the mountain
Starting to go down, the vegetation gradually becomes sparse, mixed with dead trees that have been struck by lightning. Some of the exposed rocks begin to show a gray-black luster, with some dark indigo. And when they are close to the ground, black and blue
The rocks were covered with soil again, but the plants were still sparse.
"Is this the sacred mountain?"
Hei Lang looked at it for a while and was a little disappointed. Such a short mountain seemed a little unworthy of him carving a monument. Then, he looked around and saw several small wooden houses being built near the foot of the mountain in a sparsely forested area.
.
"Boss, that's where the priests of the Holy Mountain live!"
Mavik whispered, with some inexplicable fear in his recalling expression.
Black Wolf looked at his appearance, raised his eyebrows, and shouted loudly.
"Let's go see the priest of the mountain god!"
Everyone drew their weapons and approached the cabin cautiously. But the door of the cabin suddenly opened, and three priests walked out, together with several strong mountain-guarding warriors. The leader of the old priests wore strange black and blue sacrificial robes, with paintings on the back.
Thunder and lightning, and a vague god with two faces painted on the front.
The most peculiar thing is that from his arms to his hands, there are many indigo stones hanging from short ropes, shining with a metallic light in the sun. These stones seem to be alive, sensing each other, and constantly trembling slightly.
"Where are you from? How dare you offend the sacred mountain!"
The leading old priest puffed up his chest and waved his arms suddenly in a strange and mysterious gesture. All the stones seemed to have heard the order, suddenly began to rotate, and then clicked together! The fitting stones were in place.
Under the two arms, they gathered into two dark blue stone balls.
"Noble mountain god, please grant me divine power..."
The old priest looked majestic and recited strange prayers, which made people feel awe. Then, he slowly lifted up the two gathered stone balls, made some mysterious movements, and then suddenly rubbed them hard! The two stone balls,
They actually got together again.
"Mountain God Gaze!"
Finally, he shouted loudly and let go of his hand, but the gathered stone balls did not separate, like the eyes of a god, mercilessly watching everyone present!
