MTL - Lord Highlander-Chapter 55 54. Return to Aboriginal Village

  Chapter 55 54. Return to the Aboriginal Village

During the recent period, the soldiers of the second team have complained in private that the daily patrol area has nearly doubled compared to a month ago. The patrol area not only includes the entire forest farm, but also includes the surrounding mountainous areas in the daily routine. Patrol the area.

  Baron Sidney even clearly drew a large circle with a red line on the map.

  Under Suldak's active efforts, the number of times the second team went out to patrol missions increased significantly.

  Suldak took advantage of the opportunity of patrolling and led the second team to go to Yansai Lake in the river valley to catch Tim fish there.

This time the second team was fully prepared. Not only did they bring a fishhook like a large anchor custom-made by the blacksmith workshop, but they also caught more than a dozen fresh short-tailed salamanders in the mountain stream and valley. Carried these salamanders to the river, tied a large iron anchor to the round salamanders, and let them struggle in the shallow water of the river beach.

  The Tim fish in the river discovered the prey by the river, quickly gathered them, drew clear water lines on the river surface, and turned out waves of flowers.

The salamander sensed the murderous intent lurking in the river, and desperately climbed up to the river bank, but unfortunately it dragged a big iron anchor under its body, no matter how hard it crawled, it couldn't get out, it just let out a shrill scream in the shallow water , watching several timfish scrambling to rush over, and being swallowed by the strongest timfish...

The soldiers of the second team saw the opportunity, and at the same time pulled the tim fish to the shore forcefully. The tim fish that left the river could only weakly shoot a few water arrows from its mouth, and then the soldiers would split it open with mountain axes The head, first searched for the magic core in the skull, and then dragged it into the forest, waiting for Suldak to peel off the leather.

The members of the second team are very skilled in this series of procedures. Everyone takes turns to drag fish on the river bank and dry some Tim fish meat into dried fish meat. The soldiers of the second team will not waste these fish.

   The hunting time is only half a day. If it takes too long, Baron Sidney will find out that the team is secretly doing private work during the patrol, and the lightest one will be whipped.

Suldak and the second team carried the spoils on their backs and prepared to rush back to the camp overnight. They even prepared some red-eyed hyena skins, and they had already thought of an excuse for returning late, saying that they encountered a herd of red-eyed hyenas in the forest .

   Baron Sidney has a deep hatred for these hyena groups in Ganda Er Mountain. As long as the fighters hunt red-eyed hyenas in the forest, they will usually not be held accountable even if they return to the camp later.

  He Boqiang looked at the fish skeletons discarded on the river beach, and suddenly thought of the invitation from the great wizard of the indigenous tribe Inoyatila.

If the great wizard allows him to have time, he can go to the indigenous tribe to sit. Now that his body has fully recovered, it is reasonable to go to the indigenous village to express his gratitude to the great wizard Inoyatila. Why not take this opportunity to visit the great wizard in the aboriginal village, and let the aborigines carry these fish skeletons back by the river beach at will.

   Aboriginal people have no problem with these tasty timfish skeletons.

  The soldiers of the second team had to return to the barracks within a limited time, so they could not go to the indigenous village with He Boqiang.

  He Boqiang persuaded Suerdak and separated by the river. The soldiers of the second team returned to the camp all night and night, and He Boqiang went to the indigenous tribe alone.

  …

  There is a faint morning mist in the mountains and forests. The sun has not yet climbed the mountain ridge, and the grass in the forest is full of dew. Even wearing long leather boots, the trouser legs cannot avoid being wet with dew.

A drop of water the size of a bean fell from the sky and hit He Boqiang's nose. He Boqiang raised his head, and the branches shook violently. It was a gust of rain, and He Boqiang was drenched all over his head and face.

In the past few times, I walked through the dense forest with the second team. I rarely saw so many small forest animals. This time I walked alone in the dense forest. All sorts of wonders and annoyances.

  He Boqiang brushed away the water stains on his hair with a wry smile, thinking that he should not have to go too far to reach the indigenous village.

He Boqiang lived in the aboriginal village for half a month, and he was very familiar with the valley. He saw two lookout trees at the entrance of the aboriginal village from a distance, 50 to 60 meters high, and he found a large raised rock. He waved vigorously to the two lookout trees.

   Followed by a loud whistle, apparently the aborigines on the observation tree also saw He Boqiang, this whistle was obviously a greeting.

When He Boqiang walked to the entrance of the village with half of Timfish on his back, Molly, an indigenous girl, ran out of the village like a cheerful deer, slammed into He Boqiang's arms with a thin braid, He Boqiang gave He Boqiang a big hug, his emerald green eyes were as clean and clear as a mountain spring.

  The girl Molly didn’t notice anything. Seeing He Boqiang carrying a linen bag, she immediately took it and put it on her body, and dragged him to the village.

In order to support He Boqiang's trip to the indigenous village this time, Suldak put together all the marching rations carried by the soldiers of the second team, made half a bag of dry rations for He Boqiang to take with him, and privately gave He Boqiang a handful of alloy The bow is a gift from He Boqiang to visit the great wizard Inoyatila.

  On the way to the village, He Boqiang discovered that the girl Molly was still wet, wearing a simple tube-style animal skin skirt, and her hair was full of water droplets. She looked like she had just taken a bath.

  The young girl Molly took him to the thatched wooden house where he lived, and told He Boqiang in the aboriginal language that the great wizard Inoyatila is currently worshiping gods and demons, and he will not be able to meet him until the great wizard's worship is over.

   Fortunately, He Boqiang already has a little knowledge of the aboriginal language, and even guessed and understood the meaning of the aboriginal girl.

Afterwards, He Boqiang also picked up a piece of charcoal from the firepit in the middle of the wooden house, and then slowly drew river valleys, forests, and indigenous villages on the ground, and drew the pattern of stick fish with a few strokes near the valley, using a series of gestures to tell Aboriginal girls, you can ask the aboriginal women to go to the river to pick up those Tim fish bones.

  Fortunately, the indigenous girl is quite smart. After watching for a long time, she finally understood that what He Boqiang said was asking them to move food. The indigenous girl couldn’t help but give He Boqiang a big hug again, and then dragged He Boqiang out of the wooden house without any explanation.

  He Boqiang also took him to see the great wizard Inoyatila for the girl Molly, and he didn't refuse, and followed her to the hillside.

But after walking halfway, the girl Molly suddenly pulled him to a fork road in a village. Not far away, he heard the sound of a stream bubbling in front of him. After turning around a wooden house, the scene that came into view made him He Boqiang almost spit out nosebleeds. He saw a group of aboriginal women taking a bath in the stream. Not far away, there were aboriginal children swimming in the stream. Some aboriginal hunters were sitting on the grass beside the stream and sharpening wooden arrows.

  The young girl Molly ran to the stream without hesitation, and quickly spoke a series of aboriginal languages ​​to the aboriginal women.

  Before He Boqiang could react, more than a dozen young and strong indigenous women hurriedly wrapped grass skirts around their bodies, ran towards the entrance of the village and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

  He Boqiang is like a cloud of air, no one pays attention to him at all.

  When the girl Molly remembered that she was going to take him to see the wizard Inoyatila, He Boqiang sat in the wooden house and waited drowsily...
