Chapter 684 Oracle
Even the wizards of other tribes, as long as the two sides do not go to war. That is to say, if the gods have not agreed to the war, blaspheming the wizards of other tribes will also be an untouchable taboo! Because wizards are the spokespersons of gods in the tribe!
Even the leader of the tribe dares not be selfish, because if the leader wants to protect his warrior. The wizards of the two tribes feel sorry for each other, which is equivalent to offending the wizards of their own tribes. Just like you slapped the other wizard in the face in a non-war situation, and your own wizard will also feel that this is an insult to the wizard class!
Therefore, the leader of the tribe looked coldly at Ulmsin sitting on the ground and said to Zhang Fan, "He is your slave. You can deal with him at will!"
Zhang Fan directly crushed the seemingly very powerful electric fireball with his hand, which left a deep impression on him. This young man, who seems to be weak, is probably also a very powerful warrior!
In fact, the thunder and fireball that Zhang Fan pinched seems to be powerful, but in fact it is the end of the crossbow and does not have much power. Moreover, this rough-skinned and thick-skinned Assyrian giant with high blood did not suffer much harm except that he was temporarily unable to move after being paralyzed. In Zhang Fan's eyes, this guy's physical strength is still in a very healthy range, but he looks a little ugly when he is beaten by Aken.
Zhang Fan and Aken's play are just good. If they really want to fight, they don't know who will kill the deer. But if everyone cooperates with the attack, as long as any of the three women takes action, this guy will die.
Zhang Fan looked back at the giant Ulmsin, who had already trembled like a sieve. He couldn't say a complete word. He didn't have the invincible heroism when he just jumped out! He looked at the little wizard coming towards him viciously, and he still had a strange back-edged knife in his hand that looked like a monster's sharp claws, which was to bloodlet himself. Or peeling? Wizards have countless ways to make their lives worse than death...
Ulmsin shouted in despair and fainted...
That night, the tribal leader entertained Zhang Fan's team. On the one hand, because his clan blasphemed the other party's wizard, and the leader held a banquet to apologize. On the other hand, he also wants to attract this group of powerful foreigners...
Zhang Fan's team members are naturally not very interested in the vulgar food and the suggestions of the tribal leaders here, but the good thing is that some of these foods are gray or blue supplies, so everyone naturally accepts it. Some grain has been consumed along the way, and there is an urgent need for supplies. After being full of wine and food, as usual, it was a native jumping around a bonfire.
The wizard of the tribe also took several assistants and also danced the dance of sacrificing the gods. The party was regarded as **. Zhang Fan and his companions grabbed a lot of food and staggered to rest in the tent arranged by the tribal leader. The giant named Ulmsin was tied to the door of the tent by Aken and threw him some food casually. This guy picked up a life and was panicked.
In the middle of the night, a person approached the tent where Zhang Fan's team was located. Ulmsin outside the tent had already been snoring in shock. The figure gently opened the edge of the tent and rolled in...
But as soon as the figure entered the tent, it was put on his neck by a sharp knife with a back blade. There is a night owl specializing in assassination in Zhang Fan's team. A dim fire lit up in the oil lamp, and in front of her was a tribal woman covered with sackcloth. There was a little fear and hope in her eyes...
"Who are you? What do you want to do?" Aken asked.
The book demon translated it, but the woman said a series of syllables directly in her mouth, which sounded so familiar. The book demon was shocked when he heard it, "She is a woman from China!"
"Then why don't we understand her?" Aken is very confused.
Zhang Fan smiled and said, "Do you think the words of ancient China should be the same as now? Even if it is the same word, the ancient pronunciation is very different from now! What's more, this is still ancient times."
"Do you mean dialect?"
"It's not a dialect, even if it's the same word in the same place, the pronunciation is different, and the meaning is not necessarily the same. Especially in ancient times, it's even more intelligible!" Zhang Fan explained.
Aken still doesn't quite understand, "Since she is an ancient human in China, she should be in the same camp as us, and the scene should be translated by default? Why..."
Zhang Fan muttered, "I think it's because this tribe is different from our camp, so I also need to translate the book demon. This woman should belong to this tribe now, so the scene does not support the translation language. In ancient times, the Assyrians belonging to the Semitic people fought everywhere and expanded their territory, but they clashed with many later civilizations, but they were finally destroyed by Babylon! The leader of this tribe also seems to be a little scheming to us, and the scene is also based on this factor, reminding us that we are in a hostile state.
Aken nodded and asked the book demon, "What did she say?"
On the sheepskin page in front of the book demon, a series of ancient Chinese characters appeared. Zhang Fan knew some of them, which were oracle bones, and should belong to the earliest oracle bones. They have not yet been separated from the shackles of picture images and formed the kind of formal words. But the book demon does not seem to have sorted out the language of ancient Chinese oracle bones. After all, the Vatican's 'secret archives' rarely have these ancient Chinese words. So the book demon only recognizes a few words. If he can go to China and get a large number of oracle bones, he can infer this language like the cuniform characters of the ancient Assyrians here.
So, this is very troublesome. This woman doesn't seem to understand ancient Assyrian. Maybe he just joined, or he was captured. But seeing her rush into the tent where everyone rested, there must be an important message. And the scene never does boring things, which means that this is also a test of the scene. I'm afraid the communication of this language is no less than a battle!
Zhang Fan and the book demon had tohua some of the oracle characters they knew on the land so that the woman could recognize them. Aken prayed that this woman knew words, and there were very few ancient people who could read. In some primitive tribes, most of them are tribal leaders and wizards and elders who have the ability and right to write!
Fortunately, this woman knows words, but Zhang Fan's words are not very standardized, at least not in line with the writing of ancient humans, because Zhang Fan's oracle bones are already relatively standardized in the later stage.
After a war-like communication, I finally figured out one thing. This woman has no malice. When she was serving the tribal leaders, she heard that Zhang Fan's language was very similar to that of her hometown, and their appearance was similar, so she recognized Zhang Fan's team as the people from her hometown. Therefore, I came to inquire overnight.
Who knows that even human beings in the same region can't communicate with each other. The book demon is not discouraged. Thousands of years of loneliness have made him and Zhang Fan calm and patient. He urged women to write more words, even the whole article. This woman is so tired that it's harder than Weixi's night typing!
But the book demon and Zhang Fan were intoxicated in ancient words. As a large number of words were mastered by the book demon, and the pronunciation and pronunciation were slowly deciphered by the book demon, more meanings became clearer and clearer. But by this time, the sky was already bright, and the woman left a message and hurried away. The book demon recorded this text in the book and repeatedly cracked the mystery. Maybe the next time, when the woman appears again, the book demon can barely translate...
With this mysterious Chinese woman here, Zhang Fan and Aken are not in a hurry to leave. But the three women, Green Wing Yaoji and Dark Sakura, are always in trouble here. After all, men here are used to using women as objects. Therefore, in order to make less trouble, Zhang Fan asked them and Samoy to leave the tribe first. Zhang Fan himself and Aken continued to wait to communicate with the woman. Or find a way to buy her. She is also a compatriot.
Zhang Fan and Aken found the tribal leader. The two sides first chatted in the sea and sky, and the tribal leader mentioned letting Zhang Fan's team join. There are also favorable conditions, such as flocks of cattle and sheep, flocks of women, and large areas of land. Zhang Fan Aken pretended to be a little moved, but his eyes turned around the woman beside the tribal leader.
The leader immediately understood the meaning of the two men, and he showed the smiling heart of his peers. He quickly pushed a few strong women around him. These women were his favorite. They were in good health and strong. I'm bleeding a lot!
Zhang Fan Aken thought of the meaning of the leader and looked at these three rough women and almost vomited. The aesthetics of this ancient people are probably based on robustness. Just like cattle and sheep, thin women are prone to get sick and have poor reproductive ability, so they are not favored. But this guy doesn't understand modern aesthetics when he looks at the eyes of the three women of Green-winged Yaoji and Dark Sakura?
The green wing is tall, that's all. Of course, this can't let this female Shura know. Dark Sakura and Yaoji are both clever, especially Yaoji, the small body of the night elf, slender and beautiful. How can it be in line with the aesthetics of these cows pushed by the tribal leader?
Zhang Fan didn't want to know either. He pointed to the Chinese woman at the foot of the tribal leader, "This woman is very similar to the woman on our side. I like it."
The tribal leader hesitated. Although the woman's origin is unknown, she knows words. Although those strange words, himself and the erudite wizards do not recognize them, it cannot be denied that this woman's origin is extraordinary. It's not the priest of any tribe or the princess of a city-state, which can get a large amount of wealth of cattle and sheep land!
