Chapter 224 The Divine Envoy of the Lianqing Tribe
The structure of the Lianqing tribe is similar to that of the ephedra tribe. They all live on the cliffs in the form of lantern towers. It's just that the lantern towers of the Lianqing tribe are bigger and more, and the cliffs they live in are also higher.
The square is very large, and some huts have been built on it, which surprised the night.
Li Ge took the first butterfly into the cabin and placed it. Li Jiang ordered the clan to put some tables and chairs on the open space, moved out some food, and arranged to sit down at night. The table here is interesting. It is no longer low, but it is still like a long case, retaining the shape of a long strip.
"A monsoon sends a year. I'm 63 years old this year. It's not too much to call you a night friend." Li Jiang sat at the table and handed a fruit to the night. "Fill your stomach first. Let's talk slowly."
The night is not polite. There is no dripping belly this day, and I do feel a little hungry and thirsty. He took two bites, and then said to Li Jiang, "Pstor, you are really a lot of people in your tribe."
"Since Xiaoyou is recommended by Lord Hongti, you don't have to go out, just call me Uncle Li." Li Jiangdao looked back at the cliff and was quite proud: "Although it is difficult for us human beings to survive, if we don't fight, we can only live and die. We used to be a small tribe, with only five or six hundred people. The ancestors once resisted and resisted the first wave of attack by the orcs. Later, through the mediation of Lord Hongming, the number of our tributes was reduced.
"What do you say?" The night was puzzled.
Li Jiang did not answer directly, but pointed to Li Luan beside him and said, "This is Li Luan, a child. He is 33 years old this year. I'm old, and everything about the tribe will be handed over to him in the future. He also knows these things, so it's up to him to communicate with Xiaoyou.
In the dark night's view, Li Luan is a typical Shandong man in his memory. He is burly, domineering, but handsome. With his father's approval, Li Luan introduced the tribute.
"There is no sun and moon mentioned by the ancestors, but the way of chronology has been passed down. Every October, the monsoon blows regularly. At that time, the water of the river will flow back for two months. Our place is a tributary. If you want to pay tribute, you must go to the river in the south. In October, we will collect the elderly and patients who left voluntarily from the clan, send them to the raft and flow to the west. Li Luan was afraid that the night would not understand, so he said it more carefully.
The night nodded slightly, which was basically the same as the news he had learned from the ephedra tribe.
Li Luan added, "At first, it was agreed between humans and orcs that the number of tributes was 10% of the total population. In this way, it will not lead to extermination, but it also suppresses population growth. Our tribe, after negotiation, has been reduced to 5%. After a long period of development, the population has gradually increased, and now there are about 5,000 people.
"Five thousand people?" The night glanced at the lighthouse on the cliff doubtfully, as if the number did not match at all.
Seeing the doubts of the night, Li Luan explained, "From here, all the way to the end of the northern tributaries of the river, including the other side, are all our territory."
"So it is."
"It's really a loss to Lord Hongming," Li Luan said, "Lord Hongming recommended one of his friends and lived at the top of the tributary. We respect her as the crane god Bai Yu. Lord Bai Yu is a giant black-necked crane with supreme ability. Over the years, it is because she is here that the tribe has a trace of peace.
Listening to Li Luan's tone, they didn't know that Hong Ming and Bai Yu were both human beings. First, out of gratitude, and second, I didn't dare to ask, so I deified these two people. The night has a plan in his heart. He has to take some time to visit this white feather and get close to it.
In fact, there are doubts in the dark night. These human genes have mutated into beasts, which can retain part of their sity. The golden dragon rice he raised is spiritually enlightened by beasts and can also communicate with him. These two situations can be put together so that they can be compared.
The white tiger in the family and a group of lost traces, and their wisdom are also enlightened. They are all subdued from the vicinity of Xiaoque Mountain. And will it be another experiment for the Qinglin Star Army to raise this kind of warcraft in the Demon God Mountains? But no one can answer this question, so I can only keep it in my heart for the time being.
The two talked for a while about the situation of the genetic testing ground. Then he saw Li Ge go out and walked this way. This woman should be less than 20 years old and her appearance is quite beautiful.
"Little woman Li Ge, I have seen Lord Dark Night." In her opinion, anyone who travels with Hongqi is a person with a critical identity.
"Don't be so polite," said the night.
After this break, Li Jiang and Li Luan remembered Hong Di's instructions. The teenager in front of them may be the noble man who can lead them out of trouble.
"Mr. Wu," Li Luan also became polite, "Is it possible for Lord Hongming to realize what he said?"
The night was silent for a while. He thought for a moment before he solemnly replied, "There should be a way to go out, but it's not easy for so many people."
According to his thinking, since the orcs invaded, they must open the portal from time to time. As long as you find a portal, you can get out of this place. But looking at the portal of the Immortal Mountain Orc, the efficiency is not very good. It is absolutely difficult to take 5,000 people away at once.
"I still have a question," the night reached out and knocked on the table a few times. "Do you know where the orcs live?"
"Mr. Lao, wait a minute," the night looked up, but Li Ge answered. The woman's waist and limbs twisted and hurried away like a breeze willow.
There should be literature or topographic map. When the night thought of this, my heart became hot. I've had enough of touching around like a headless fly these days.
While waiting for Li Ge, the night introduced the origin of the first butterfly.
As soon as he heard that it was an ephedra tribe, Li Jiang showed a thoughtful look. Not long after, he recalled, "Thirty years ago, a young man from the ephedra tribe came to our tribe because of an accident. I think the woman's appearance and dress are indeed a little familiar.
"Does Uncle Li still remember what that man's name is?"
"It seems to be called Lulu," Li Jiang muttered. After many years, he had long forgotten it.
The night quickly added, "Baruru."
"Yes, yes, yes, it's called Baluru." Li Jiang thought, "This man is very ambitious, but he refuses to merge with our tribe. If he hadn't given it off as a tribute, he should be the leader of the ephedra clan now. That tribe had a population of about three or four hundred at that time, and I don't know what's going on now.
Listening to Li Jiang's words, the night knows it in his heart. The patriarch Baluru was not completely deceived by Buji. The Lianqing tribe did exist, and he had also been here. Looking at his calculations, he should want to make some moves in the tribe, which is likely to be related to himself.
"Is it that Bruru has been thinking about it for 30 years and is finally willing to join the Lianqing tribe?" The night can't help guessing secretly, but it's just guessing. The old fox is so cunning that its purpose is not so obvious.
There is no taboo in the dark night, and I will say what the ephedra tribe has seen and heard. He also explained that Buji had approached this side, and also explained the identity of Chudie.
When it comes to the embolding things that happened in the seven nights, Li Jiang and Li Luan are very happy.
At this point, they have also confirmed that the night in front of them really came from the outside. The mood of leaving here became urgent. They looked at the night and gradually became eager.
"Little brother, the future of the uncle tribe is all about you." Li Jiang relied on the old and played emotional cards: "If you don't dislike it, let's have a name in our Lianqing tribe. Buji, who came with you at that time, asked, so that he could have an answer.
"That's fine," the night nodded.
His father and son looked at each other, and finally Li Jiang said, "I've been thinking about it. Other identities are not suitable for younger brothers. If you are old with Lord Hongti, then act as a god.
The night was shocked, and the two actually gave him the name of a magic stick. However, it is the same, but it is also very suitable. When he thinks about it, he will meet Bai Yu in the future, and this identity is not a big deal.
"Wu Shenshi, so I will say goodbye and spread your name all over the clan first to avoid mistakes." Li Luan proposed to say goodbye and now used the new name for the night.
The night was happy and said goodbye to him with a smile.
At this time, Li Ge, who had just left, had already come. Her brother and sister greeted each other and staggered each other.
"Mr. Wu," Li Ge held a leather roll and walked to the table.
"In the future, it will be called Lord God," Li Jiang corrected. "Xiao Ge, the little brother has officially become the messenger of Lord Hongwei. Don't get your identity wrong."
Li Ge's face turned red, and he was also a little surprised. But he did not raise any doubts and accepted it in one bite. She opened the animal skin roll and spread it out in front of the night.
"Please take a look," Li Ge stretched out his finger and pointed out on the map: "This is the topographic map left by the ancestors. Although it is rough, it is basically accurate. This east-west river is called the Monsoon River. Along the bank of the river, all the way to the west, is the residence of our human beings. The source of the Monsoon River, known as the Beast Mountain, is the area where orcs live.
With such an explanation, there was a concept in the night's mind. He interrupted, "Jifeng Jiangnan side should be the territory of fire life, right?"
"Fire Life?" Li Ge was a little puzzled. He just shook his head to show that he didn't know. It's dangerous outside. Except for places near the tribe, no one has ever been there.
Li Jiang also looked puzzled: "Little friend, what is fire life? Have you been there?"
"Naturally, I was transported there." There is nothing to hide in the night. If he stands firm and explores that area, it is inevitable. Of course, this also depends on the manpower of the Lianqing tribe.
Listening to the night, his image suddenly became taller in the minds of Li Jiang and his daughter. It's not that they haven't explored unknown areas before, but no one has ever succeeded since it has been recorded. All the people who explored, without exception, are missing.
"We will discuss that question later. Miss Li Ge, please tell me first how big the proportion of the map is. I must figure out how much space the orcs have to move. After confirming the territory, we can roughly calculate how much their population is, which is convenient for us to plan for the next step.
