War of the Supreme Mysteries

Chapter 60: The border of the Tu people

Views:

Wu Dongfang was in an extremely bad mood. The child was not saved and was stabbed.

He was not very concerned about his injuries. What he cared about was the little boy. After that boy was captured, he would definitely be thrown into the pool. A child of five or six years old, in a dark environment, in a cold pool, Facing the ferocious water monster, how scared he must be, and which part of his body the water monster will bite first.

He began to regret not killing the boy before the other party snatched him away. If he had done it, the child would have died painlessly. But there was no use regretting it. The strength gap between the two sides was too big, and the other side didn't give him any time to react.

Wu Dongfang kept sighing. After walking five or six miles, he stopped sighing. He rescued the boy and tried his best to protect him. He didn't choose the wrong direction to escape. Everything was correct. There was only one reason why he was seriously injured and the boy was taken back: he was no match for the Tu wizard. If the other party was just an ordinary wizard, he might still be able to fight, but the other party was a wizard-level wizard, and his spells were too powerful. He was simply vulnerable to the other party.

There are regrets for sure, but if you try your best, at least you won’t feel guilty. You are not capable enough and have no choice.

The light rain kept falling, and Wu Dongfang was walking bent down in the woods. The inconvenience in walking was partly due to injuries on his body. Another reason for bending down was to prevent the several rolls of linen cloth on his body that recorded Qi training methods from getting wet by the rain. If the cinnabar was soaked in water, Will gradually fade.

I have been traveling for nearly a month, and it won't take long to leave the Tu tribe and enter the Wood tribe. It will definitely take some time to find Fei Qing when I reach the Wood tribe. After finishing my work, I need to go south and go around the Fire tribe, and then I can return to the Jin tribe. It's a big U-turn. Even if there are no obstacles along the way, it will take at least two years to return to the Jin clan.

At this time, he can only walk, and he takes a detour. Two years is already an optimistic estimate. There is only one way to go back early, and that is to ask the wizards of the Wood Tribe or the Fire Tribe to send him back, but this is unlikely. , because he was not sure whether the other party would send him to the Jin tribe or the Tu tribe after his identity was revealed. A weak country has no diplomacy. This is an eternal truth. The Jin tribe is too weak. Between the Jin tribe and the Tu tribe, there is no The Fire Tribe and the Gold Tribe will not choose the Gold Tribe.

In addition, Yamiao once said that the Qinglong Celestial Master of the Wood Clan was still alive, which meant that someone had impersonated Fei Mu. He did not dare to explain his purpose in a big way this time, otherwise he would not know how he died.

Correct analysis is the premise and basis for correct action. After analyzing and estimating the current and future situations, Wu Dongfang formulated a detailed action plan: After going to the Mu Clan, he carefully found Fei Qing himself and transferred Fei Mu's wood He handed the staff to him personally, and then left immediately to find a safe place between the Wood Tribe and the Fire Tribe to practice magic alone.

After walking for more than ten miles, it rained heavily. He found a big tree with a rotten trunk. He squatted down in the hole of the tree, took out the flour cake and chewed it slowly. It took too long, and the flour cake became moldy and stained with blood. He He could only make do with what he had to eat. It was much harder to survive in the Xia Dynasty than in modern times. He was lucky that he was a specially trained soldier. If he were an ordinary person, he would have died several times by now.

He fell asleep before finishing the pancake, and when he woke up it was already dawn.

After falling asleep, the bread fell to the ground and was being eaten by a badger.

Wu Dongfang chased away the badger and slowly stood up to move his legs that were numb from squatting. At this time, his chest and abdomen no longer hurt. He looked down and found that the wound had healed. White crane Ganoderma lucidum and geozum had indeed miraculous effects.

When his legs regained consciousness, he picked up the leftover pancakes chewed by the badger, patted the dirt on them, and ate while walking. The fox girl had replaced his bow and arrows, so food was not easy to come by.

He washed off the blood from a puddle on the way and continued walking quickly. In fact, last night was not very unlucky. At least the Tu wizard did not notice the white tiger tattoo on his chest, otherwise he would not have been stabbed. .

Two days later, a large city appeared ahead. Different from the cities we had seen before, although this city was very large, there was no wall around it.

Without the bow and arrow, without fire, he had been eating raw food these past few days. He hesitated for a moment and rushed to the city. He still had a few shells on him and wanted to buy some food.

As he got closer, he found that this place didn't seem to be a city. The buildings here were very messy and there were no soldiers. Most of the people inside were carrying weapons. They all looked fierce, and half of them were real murderers. They glared at everyone they saw. The other half are pretending to be fierce, pretending to be fierce but not daring to look other people in the eye.

After observing the surrounding environment and the passers-by, Wu Dongfang knew where this place was. It was a place where no one cared about anything. Many men had slave marks on their chests, many women also had slave marks on their arms, and some were not slaves. Ordinary people.

Just when he was looking around to find someone to ask for directions, a furry fox was thrown out of the inn across the street. This fox was really not small, about the size of a goat. It was alive and fell to the ground. After that, Yi Gulu got up, turned around and ran back to the inn.

"How dare you come here to drink if you don't have money?!" A tall and thick man kicked out the fox who ran to the door.

"Give me a bowl, just one bowl, and I'll go look for it tonight." The furry fox could actually speak human language.

"Get out!" The strong man tried to hit it, but the fox jumped away quickly.

"Give it a bowl on credit and put it on my account." A woman's voice came from the noisy inn.

The strong man glanced at the fox, turned back, took a bowl of wine and put it by the door. The fox hurriedly came over and drank quickly with his head lowered.

"Don't block the road." Wu Dongfang was pushed by a passerby and stepped back, standing aside to watch the fox drink curiously.

People here seem to be familiar with this fox. They are not scared when they see it. They are not even curious about what to do.

The fox finished the wine, stood up on his legs, and bowed towards the inn with his two front paws, "Hua Gu, wait, let me get you something good."

"You owe me three bowls. If I can't find anything to repay the debt, I will skin you." The woman said.

"That's it, that's it." The fox was running south on its forelimbs. When passing by Wu Dongfang, he saw that Wu Dongfang kept looking at it, stopped, wrinkled his nose and bared his teeth at him.

Wu Dongfang retreated subconsciously. Seeing that the fox had frightened him, he was very proud and trotted away and disappeared into the street.

"Buy or not? If not, go away and don't block my business!" There was a shout from behind.

Wu Dongfang walked away and walked a few steps north. He tilted his head and looked at the inn on the east side of the road. It was a three-story wooden building. The first floor was a tavern. There were more than twenty tables inside and seven or eight tables of diners. .

The strong man came out to get the wine bowl next to the door. When he saw Wu Dongfang looking in, he glared and shouted, "What are you looking at?!"

"What's there to eat?" Wu Dongfang asked. Judging from the clothes of this strong man, he was undoubtedly a clerk here. This was the clerk with the worst attitude he had ever encountered.

"Are you blind?" The strong man glared again.

"I'm not blind." Wu Dongfang raised his eyebrows and looked coldly.

Seeing that Wu Dongfang was not a good person, the strong man softened his attitude. He raised his hand and pointed at the bloody wooden tables in the corner, "Don't be blind and see for yourself."

Wu Dongfang glanced at it and saw various disemboweled animals placed on the wooden table. Some he recognized and some he did not recognize.

After a brief hesitation, he walked in and chose a table next to the door. He liked sitting next to the door.

"One person occupies such a big table, go over there." Someone shouted from the cabinet.

Wu Dongfang turned around and saw that the speaker was a middle-aged man who was blind in one eye. He was holding a bloody piece of raw meat in one hand and a meat-picking knife in the other. He was pointing the knife at the southwest corner.

Wu Dongfang didn't want to cause trouble, so he got up and walked to the southwest corner and sat down. After sitting down, he found that all the diners in the store were looking at him. All of these people were carrying weapons and had fierce looks on their faces.

Wu Dongfang did not look at these people, but took out a few shells from his pocket and put them on the table. The strong man who ran the waiter came over and grabbed the shells without asking him what he wanted to eat.

Wu Dongfang didn't say what he wanted to eat because he didn't know what he could buy with these shells here.

He didn't know what kind of place this was, but he saw the disorder here, and he also saw the people there. If he guessed correctly, this should be an unmanaged area. Places like this usually appear in On the border between the two countries, that is to say, after passing this city, the east side should enter the border of the Mu tribe.

When people around you are full of hostility, the best way to deal with it is to remain expressionless so that the other person doesn't know what he or she is thinking.

The wooden wall on the east side may be the account book of the tavern. There are some patterns painted on it. Below the patterns are blood stains. These blood stains should be painted by waiters dipped in animal blood. Most of them are "one", and there are also a small amount of "o".

These few shells could buy half a jar of wine and a large plucked bird of unknown species. When the food and wine were served, Wu Dongfang began to eat and drink.

While he was eating silently, a quarrel came from a table in the middle to the north. He did not turn his head to look, but listened attentively.

"Do you want it or not? Just pay this price and don't get out." The woman who spoke was the one who gave the fox wine before. He didn't know what she looked like because he didn't look around after entering the door.

"It will be good for you to speak politely." The young man's voice.

"I won't be polite, let alone you two brats, even if your heavenly master comes, I will still talk like this." The woman said loudly.

When Wu Dongfang heard that the other party's conversation involved the Heavenly Master, he hurriedly grabbed the wine jar as a cover, tilted his head and looked at the table, and saw that the person speaking was a woman in her mid-thirties, about 1.7 meters tall, and weighed about He weighs about 120 pounds, has an oval face, looks good, but is too fierce. At this time, he was looking angrily at the two young men opposite him.

One of the young men saw that she was speaking harshly and stood up, wanting to get angry.

His companion hurriedly grabbed him, turned to the woman and said, "There are too many Shipeng, we didn't bring that much."

"This is cheap, two friends." The woman took out something from her arms and threw it on the table.

Wu Dongfang saw clearly that it was a red inner elixir. Shells were the currency at this time, five to a penny, and the woman was doing business with the two young men, who wanted to buy her things.

He was not interested in the transaction between the three of them, so he drank down the wine quickly, grabbed the uneaten big bird and left the inn. The two young men should be wizards of the Tu tribe. It was not suitable to stay here for a long time, so he had to leave quickly.
