Horn is nearly middle-aged and has two wives, three sons and one daughter. He is tall and strong. He has a pale hair that is different from ordinary people, with hair spread over his shoulders, and his forehead is covered with a strap made of some kind of vine. He is rugged and wears a necklace worn with animal teeth around his neck. There is no piece of clothing covering the upper body, revealing clear muscle lines. The chest and abdomen are full of scars, which are the proof of the warriors in the clan. The lower body is wearing a loose cloth skirt, bare feet, and a curved bone knife at the waist.
He stood in front of the Barry Priest. If Horn is a lion, then the Barry Priest must be a monkey. But in the face of the fierce lion, the monkey did not show any fear or panic, but looked at Horn with his fixed eyes.
Horn's chest fluctuated sharply, and finally slowly exhaled and said, "Priest Barry, if you want to see the child's body. Then I will fulfill you, and I can tell you responsibly that you are not helping her, but harming her!"
"Hoern, as a priest, I must maintain the balance in my heart. If Diley dies because of this, I think you should understand whose crime will be heavier. The priest waved his thin hand and said, "Go away. I want to rest."
Hunted, Horn angrily opened the tent and came out. Outside the priest's tent, several men of different shapes are already waiting. They are tall and short, and three of them are no less tall than Horn, with the skulls of some kind of beast on their heads and some ancient patterns painted in bright colors. Holding a rough weapon with the beast's leg bones and sharp stone knives tightly tied together with a rope, the human figure is ferocious. The other two are a short woman and a big fat man. For the convenience of movement, the woman did not wear too complicated clothes. She only wrapped her chest and span with animal skin, and other places were exposed to the air. She carried a big bow almost as tall as herself, and a quiver made of animal skin on her waist, full of simple long arrows. Finally, the fat man always has a big belly, his ears are wearing bone nails, and his hands are pressed with a stone hammer. The stone hammer pressed on the soft ground and directly sank the ground, which was obviously not light.
"Hasn't Gitaro come back yet?" After leaving the tent, Horn asked loudly.
The woman shook her head and Horn snorted coldly: "These bastards can't even be caught by a little girl. Ask a few more people to go out to look for it. The old thing inside wants to see Dilei's body, so let us fulfill him!"
"Leave it to me, brother." The fat man patted his chest with a smile, shaking the fat on his body. He said, "If you catch Dilei, can you let me play first?" She is usually lively and must be very good at playing.
"Whatever you want!" Horn left this sentence and strode away first. The others followed him, and the fat man smiled and carried the stone hammer on his shoulder, but did not follow them, but left the village by himself.
Get out of the village and go through a sheep intestine path to leave this valley. The path was curved. At first, it was just a natural crack, but it was later cleaned up by the Galan people. There is a section of the road that needs to pass through the mountain, where it is dark, and only with a torch can you see clearly.
At the entrance and exit of the mountain, there are torches all year round. The fat man came to the exit and picked up any one, lit it with a flint and lifted it inside. I don't know how many times this road has been walked. It is already a familiar road for the fat man, and he even hummed happily. Imagine that after catching the girl Delei, I will definitely play with her enough to kill her. Thinking about it, he couldn't help laughing. Unexpectedly, there was laughter, and suddenly there was a figure in the light of the torch, which turned out to be Dilei.
"Hahaha, Dilei, did you send it to your door by yourself? That saves me a lot of effort. Come here by yourself, or I'll smash your feet with this big guy and teach you a lesson with my own things. The fat man patted his waist and walked to Dilei with a cheap smile.
What surprised him was that Dilei smiled and said, "You're wrong. It's your fat pig who will be unlucky today!"
"What?" The fat man's face showed anger. Just as he wanted to teach the girl a profound lesson, he suddenly felt cold behind his back. He trembled all over and only felt an ice line penetrated his back and plunged into his warm and fat heart. With another twist, the unimaginable severe pain came, but disappeared in an instant.
After all, people who have died will no longer feel any pain. Two thin blood lines flowed out of the fat man's nose. As soon as his hand loosened, the stone hammer was about to fall to the ground, but it was held by a stable and powerful hand. Zero appeared after the fat man. In his hand was a *, and the knife was stained with the fat man's blood.
After Horn left, Barry did not rest. There is always uneasiness in his heart, pressing on his heart like a big stone. Horn is an ambitious man, and he is unwilling to stay on this island like his father, which is clear to both Vaha and Barry. Therefore, Waha preferred to hand over the position of the patriarch to Dilei. The late patriarch believed that if Horn led the clan, he was likely to bury the Galan people on the ruthless sea.
Now that Vaha died, he died so suddenly and quickly that Barry didn't have time to announce Vaha's last wish, and Horn asked someone to kill Diley. All this happened so fast that the old priest couldn't react. But the only thing that can be done now is to suppress Horn's succession ceremony as a priest. But he also knew that it would not take long once Horn brought Dilei's body back. Then as the only son of Vaha, even if the priest opposes, he will automatically become the patriarch.
The tent was suddenly lifted, and someone came in from the outside. Barry said unhappily, "I didn't say, don't bother me again... Ah..." The old priest turned around and saw a petite figure, not Dilei. He almost called out, but fortunately, he finally resisted. Then Barry saw another man. He was definitely not dressed like anyone in this clan, not to mention that he had rare black hair and left black and right gold pupils.
"Dile, who is he?" Barry asked.
"His name is Zero, my samurai! It was he who protected me back, Priest Barry.
Barry was skeptical and frowned again, "Dile, you should come back, but you shouldn't." The old priest was in a conflict of mood and said, "Now Horn is looking for you everywhere. You don't need to say that you know what he wants to do. If only Waha were still alive, but your grandfather is now dead, and now Horn is sitting in the family. I'm afraid that Horn will obstruct me if I announce that Vaha will let you succeed the patriarch. Why don't you go and find a way to leave this island and don't care about the Galan people.
"No!" Dilei said stubbornly, "This time I came back to become a patriarch. I can never hand over the people to my uncle, which will kill you.
"But what are you going to do?" Barry shook his head.
Dile looked at Zero, clenched her fist and said, "Uncle must die, his wife and children, and his men. These people must clean up our Galan clan one by one, otherwise we will never have peace.
Barry looked at Diley from top to childhood as if he knew her for the first time. Then he looked at Zero thoughtfully. He watched Dilei grow up. How could he not know that he couldn't say such decisive words with Dilei's mind. Then the only possibility left is that this so-called warrior taught her. But Barry had to admit that if Diley wanted to come back, this was her only way.
Of course, Horn will die, and his wife and children can't be kept. Even if the two sons and daughters are still young, hatred will spread. The only way is to eradicate it. It's cruel, but it must be done. Next, naturally, it is the person standing on the Horn front. Barry believes that Diley will not know what it means to do so. But she said firmly now that this alone is enough to impress Barry.
But the priest doubted how Diley would completely eradicate Horn and his faction with a foreign warrior alone.
Seeing the doubts in Barry's heart, he said lightly, "Don't worry, dear priest, I will clear all the obstacles in front of her for Dilei."
Is that right? Our ancestors said. Without bait, fish will not be hooked. I want to know what conditions Dilei promised you, and who are you who has the ability to shovel all obstacles alone? Barry's little eyes sparkled with wisdom.
Zero did not avoid his question: "As you can see, I am not from this island. In fact, I come from the southern continent. Yes, I made a deal with the future patriarch of Galan. I helped her become the patriarch, and she wanted to sell your green crystal to me. Listen, it's for sale. I will exchange it with equivalent materials or what you need. Of course, if you are willing to live in the mainland, I can exchange it for mainland currency for you. But it's better not to go now, because there is a war going on there now.
Barry nodded and said, "Then tell me, what are you going to do?"
"I need a set of your clothes, and then ask the priest to take me around the village. You must tell me who Horn is, and then tell Horn to hold a ceremony for the succession of patriarchs. Of course, as for the real object of the ceremony, you don't have to tell him. Zero said lightly.
"Well, after hearing you say that, I feel that you really want to help Dilei. Otherwise, even if Dilei will die because of me, I will call Horn's people. After all, it's better to let the treasures of the clan fall in Horn's hands than to make outsiders cheaper. Barry said in a low voice.
Zero spread out his hand and said, "Delle said that you are a wise person. At the final, you didn't make a confused decision."
Dilei was confused when she heard it, but she didn't understand the meaning of the two people's words. In fact, Barry saw from the fact that he was just going to help Diley sweep Horn's faction from zero that he wanted to clean up Horn's faction, and of course, the purpose was to clean up and Liwei. If Zero doesn't do this but kills people casually, then it's not clearing obstacles for Dilei, but creating contradictions and hatred.
So in the end, the Galan clan may be torn apart because of this, which is much more serious than making Horn the patriarch. A moment later, Barry found a set of Garan clothes for him. It's said to be clothes, but it's actually just a pair of trousers. Only old people and women will wear such things as coats. When Zero put on his trousers and showed his overly white body, Barry shook his head.
The old priest took some bottles and cans from nowhere, and then took out some black things from them and smeared them on Zero's body. These things smelled and frowned. But he didn't say anything and let the priest paint him all over. When they are evenly applied, the zero skin color becomes bronze, covering his original skin color. Barry painted here and there with some other colors of paint on Ling's body. After a moment, Zero looked like a native Galan.
Finally, Barry holds a mask that can block the lower part of his eyes for Zero to wear, so that as long as Zero does not speak, no one will know that he is an outsider. After all this, Barry let Dilei hide in the tent, and he left with Zero himself.
The two walked and stopped in the village. Barry told Zero that the population of the Galan people is about 1,000. Basically, every man is a hunter, and only a few of the bravest people can become warriors. There are about 100 soldiers in the village, and they will only go out when dealing with extremely fierce beasts. Horn himself is an excellent warrior, and his men have about 20 soldiers, five of whom are very powerful. When it was said that there was a fat man who made the stone hammer in it, Zero smiled. Barry asked him what he was laughing at, and Ling said flatly, "That man will never come back."
Barry lowered his head to hide the shock in his eyes. The fat man's name is Sanger, and he is so powerful that he can definitely rank in the top three among the soldiers in the village. But such a person seems to be easily killed by the outsider in front of him. With the vigor of the priest, it is obvious that he can't understand what the capable person is, let alone the ninth-order strong man like zero.
At this time, when the villagers came back from hunting, a team of hunters came back carrying several giant eagles the size of a calf and several giant pythons, including a 28-meter-long giant crocodile. However, there are still many wounded behind the team, and it seems that the villagers have paid a considerable price for hunting these things. When the hunters came to the entrance of the village, several tall men greeted them. Barry pointed to one of the pale men and said, "That's Horn."
Then he introduced several fierce generals under Horn to Zero. After Zero remembered them, he rushed back to the tent with the priest before the hunter entered the village.
In the evening, Horn received a surprising news from Barry, and the priest decided to hold a succession ceremony tomorrow. Hearing the news, Horn sneered and said, "This old man was finally enlightened, but after he announced that I would succeed as the patriarch, our Galan clan no longer needed any priests. It's up to me to say everything in the future. After tomorrow's ceremony, kill the old man!"
Early the next morning, in the square in the middle of the village, the Barry priest arrived early with his beast bone power. Today, he wears a very gorgeous dress and a crown full of feathers of various colors, with a little Indian style. Last night, the villagers heard that the bari priest will hold a succession ceremony today. Although he didn't say who he would hold it for, Dilei disappeared, and of course, Horn was the only qualified person in the clan.
After the clan gathered, Horn and his three soldiers came late. Five soldiers under him, the black fat Sander, left the village yesterday to chase Diley. As for the female archer, no one knew where she had gone, except Horn.
On a small mountain in the west of the village, the woman showed her face from behind a big stone. She gently put the bow and arrow on the stone, and you can see the square from this direction. Although it is hundreds of meters apart, today's wind and the big bow in her hand are enough to nail the arrow into the chest of anyone in the square. She is a pawn placed here by Horn to prevent anything from happening.
But soon after she appeared, Zero came behind her. Zero even looked at her carefully, but the woman just didn't realize that there were more people behind her. Usually, she is also very sensitive, but today she meets Zero, who is good at hidden sports. Zero restrained her breath and appeared in the dead corner of the woman's sight. Even if the two were very close, the woman did not feel it.
It was not until Ling's cool fingers touched the back of her neck that she suddenly realized it. But everything was late. With the sharp turn of Zero's hands, the woman only heard a click from her neck and lost any consciousness. After killing her, Zero still had time to sit her upright behind the stone, support her body with a few stones, and then quietly retreat.
At this time, the succession ceremony in the square began. The Barry priest held the beast bone power high, but a loud voice burst out in his thin body: "Compatriots of the Galan clan, our respected patriarch Waha has been dead for many days. But before he died, he had told me the name of the next patriarch. Now, in the presence of the souls of our ancestors, I will announce her name. She is..."
Hon smiled and was ready to play. Unexpectedly, Barry suddenly came out of another person's name: "Delle! Yes, she is the heir designated by Vaha!"
Horn suddenly smiled and shouted, "Barry, you old man, your head is confused! Dilei is not in the village at all. Maybe she has been eaten by any beast. So the position of patriarch can only be me! You know what?"
At the end of his words, another voice sounded from the crowd: "It's you who are confused! Uncle Horn, who said I'm not here? I've always been here!"
The nearby Galan people quickly got out of the way. Diray walked into the square with her head held her head high and pointed to Horn and said, "Today, I will not only follow my grandfather's last wish to succeed as the new patriarch. Moreover, I want to expose your crime to everyone. My own uncle, Grandpa's own son, did not hesitate to kill his father for the sake of power, and after knowing that Grandpa was going to pass on the patriarch to me, you sent someone to kill me!"
Dile's voice was not loud, but everyone in the square listened to it, and suddenly the square was in an uproar.
