Chronicles of Primordial Wars

In addition to the Mang tribe and the Weiba tribe, several other tribes in the middle of the continent also set off one after another.

When it comes to banquets, experienced tribes all know that going to banquets is also a struggle. There are no murderous contests everywhere, not necessarily direct comparisons of force. There are many ways to suppress each other, such as clothing, such as Accessories, such as tools, etc.

In terms of clothing, each tribe has its own characteristics, and it does not necessarily have to be hideous animal skins or silky silk fabrics. For example, the Mang tribe prefers clothing made from plants that are similar to the color of bamboo, and the accessories are also bamboo chips. Or carved from jade, the jades that symbolize status are also different. People from outside the tribe can know the status of the other party in the Mang tribe through the jade ornaments on the other party's body.

And this time, the jade ornaments hanging on the waists of the people from the Mang tribe are all above the semi-circle level. That is to say, this time the Mang tribe's team is basically middle and high-level totem warriors, and their status is in the Mang tribe. Not low either.

There are many jades produced by the Mang tribe, and many people have imitated the shape of the jade ornaments hung by the Mang tribesmen, but the real Mang tribesmen, the jade ornaments on their bodies seem to be simple, but they are very special, not carefully carved, but clear It has a green pattern like bamboo. This kind of jade is called Mangyu, which is exclusive to Mang tribesmen. Even if other tribes get this kind of mang jade through some means, they would not dare to take it out, because Mang tribesmen do not will allow.

The Weiba tribesmen, who are affiliated with the Mang tribe, are wearing the famous silk clothes of their tribe, and, for this trip to Yanhe, they all put on clothes that they usually don't want to wear. This kind of talent is compelling. , Compared with the people of other big tribes, it is the collision of the tribe's face.

Most of the Mang tribesmen rode on horses, and there were also some strange beasts. Their furs were dark brown, black, and white. If Shao Xuan were here, he would be very surprised to find that the beasts that the leaders of the Mang tribe were riding looked like pandas!

People from the eight tribes. Most of them are sitting on big spiders. Those big spiders have different colors, long or short hair, thick or thin legs, and even the number of eyes is not necessarily the same. Some look like a hairball. Some look like a few bamboo poles put together, as if the wind blows and it will fly away with the wind.

These two tribes would be very eye-catching if they took out one of them alone, but now that they are on their way together, it is even more eye-catching. Wherever they pass, almost everyone who sees them will be curious, where are the Mang tribe and Weiba tribe? And it's still like this? It's not like going to war, what purpose do they have?

People who couldn't restrain their curiosity and were in a hurry, followed far behind. Want to find out. Those who got close and worried about being caught by the Mang tribe and Weiba tribe could only hang behind and follow at a certain distance.

From the central part to the Yanhe side, the distance is not too close, and along the way, there are more and more curious people, but they dare not go up to ask, and the daring ones also join the tracking team.

In this regard, the people of the two tribes are aware of it, but they are not interested in paying attention to the people behind, and. In fact, they also have the intention to bring more people over to watch the fun. If the Yanjiao side is really not good, there can be more people to help promote it.

In the hearts of most tribesmen, it is the most prosperous. It must be the central region, and the trading area is also the most prosperous and richest in the central region. People on the edge of the mainland will travel thousands of miles to the trading area there to make transactions.

If it can be confirmed that the Yanhe trading area is just a messy little place, even if the people of Yanjiao vigorously promote it, no one will go there. save their energy.

The people from the Mang tribe and Weiba also met people from the Changzhou tribe on the way, but the people from the Changzhou tribe were all on boats. Line, there are land shortcuts on land.

"Is there a boat in the Yanhe trading area?" After being separated from the Changzhou tribe, some people from the Mang tribe were puzzled.

"Isn't it called the Yanhe Trading Area? If there is a river, it is natural to sail.

Reed Ye said with a frown. He didn't believe that Yanjiao could gain a foothold in such a short period of time. He took a step back and said that even if Yanjiao could gain a foothold and start life again, the resulting Yanhe trading area would , and he does not think it will be better than the large trading areas in the middle.

Perhaps, everything is just a way to brush the presence of the horns.

"I don't know if Yanjiao will take out all of his family's assets this time?" Someone laughed.

"No matter what they do, the people who will be troubled at that time will also be troubled by the people in Yanjiao. We just let go of eating and drinking." Someone from the Weiba tribe also responded.

Walking along the route from the densely populated central part of the tribe, there are very few active people around, and sometimes no outsiders are seen all day long, and the surrounding soil quality is indeed not very good, especially in places far away from the river It is quite barren, the soil is very hard, and it is not suitable for planting. There are only some bare mountains with weeds nearby, and it is rare to see a tree that can bear fruit. Even if there are, most of them are low and sparse. In such a place, it is no wonder that there is no tribal life.

desolate!

This is what everyone who passes by here thinks.

At this time, the people of the Mang tribe and the Weiba tribe couldn't help but feel proud. Their ancestors were really powerful, and the place to find it was good. Any soil in their own tribe's territory was much better than here!

However, gradually, the topography did not change significantly, but the topography began to change. The surrounding trees gradually increased, became taller, and denser. The surrounding mountains were no longer monotonous weeds, but lush and green. The more you go, the denser the forests on the mountain, even in places far from the water source, the mountain forests are full of green vitality compared to before.

There are some active figures nearby, probably from a small tribe, hidden in the woods on the mountain.

"This place seems to be pretty good?" Qu Ce tore off a leaf on a bush, tore it open, and looked at the water in the leaf.

Although the soil is not necessarily fertile, if you want to plant, you can barely plant some, not as good as the farmland in the middle, but it can still maintain the livelihood of some small tribes.

Others disagree. In their eyes, this place is far from the farmland of their own tribe.

"Leader, someone on the mountain has followed us for a while, do you want to go over there and test it?" Spring Ye asked the leader of the Mang tribe who led the team.

"No need." The leader of the Mang tribe raised his hand indifferently, to those of the small tribes. He still doesn't look down on it and doesn't think it will pose a threat to their team.

In the forest next to him, Abuli led people and looked at the team passing through the valley in shock.

"Then... who is that?" someone asked.

"How do I know?!" Abuli tugged at the animal fur coat on his body anxiously. Wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Before coming, Abuli spent two days choosing clothes, and finally chose a piece of animal skin exchanged from Yanjiao, and then asked his wife to sew it into clothes. In Yan tribe, the best clothing material. There was only the fierce beast skin they bought from Yanjiao before last winter.

The skin of a fierce beast is no more difficult to cut than the skin of a beast. One person is too inefficient, so Abuli's wife asked a few more people to help. Abuli, his wife, and a witch from the Yan tribe all wore animal skins and headed to the Yanhe trading area.

However, at that time, the animal skins that Abuli chose were all furs, with thick fur, not smooth or short-pile leather, in this weather. The winter has passed early, and it is really hot to wear now, but Abuli has no choice. He chooses and chooses, only these furs can be admired.

Originally, Abuli planned to wear clothes made of these hideous beasts to show off at the Yanhe feast. As far as he knew, many tribes of this generation had never seen hides of beasts before.

Unexpectedly, when they went to the Yanhe trading area, they saw a team with luxurious equipment passing through the valley. From the clothes and the car, the other party will throw out a hundred rivers of their tribal people, and their momentum is far stronger than that of other tribes in this area. Compared with them, the people of the tribal tribe are simply not good enough. See that team. They can't even think of robbery.

That should be the legendary powerful tribe from the central region, right?

There are people outside people, and their horizons are still too small.

Under the blow, Abuli thought for a while, took out a bag woven with vines on his back, untied it layer by layer, and took out a few strings of crystal necklaces inside. All worn around the neck. This is what he brought with him when he left the tribe. He originally thought about giving it as a gift and pretending to be a local tyrant. Now it seems that he should wear it first to strengthen his courage.

"Well, this is much better." Abuli looked at the sparkling crystal charm, nodded with satisfaction, and his self-confidence suddenly increased a few levels.

And the Mang tribe and Weiba tribe who were on their way did not know how large the psychological shadow of the people who peeped at them in the dark.

As night fell, the team first found a place to rest.

Beside the fire, the leader of the Mang tribe took out the map on the back of the invitation again, and looked at the two moons painted on the top of the map, which was the banquet time given by Yanjiao. After looking at the size of the bright sides of the two moons, he raised his hand and gestured between the two moons, and then looked up at the sky.

The two moons in the night sky, the shape of the bright side is almost the same as that drawn on the animal skin scroll map.

"Can catch up." This is the conclusion drawn by the leader of the Mang tribe.

"Well, I should be able to reach the Yanhe trading area tomorrow," said Spring Ye.

Here they are, looking at the general terrain, the distribution of the mountains and the orientation of the river, they can correspond to the location on the map, and they are very close to the destination marked with the flame double-horn pattern on the animal skin scroll map. , they can arrive before the time given by Flaming Horn.

"I don't know what food Yanjiao prepared? Could it be that they really prepared a lot of beast meat?" Qu Ce looked at a beast roasting on the fire, feeling even more hungry.

"Who knows?" A soldier from the Eighth Tribe yawned. They all regretted coming with the team, and the journey is far from being said. If Yanjiao prepares some strange food, they will bite the bullet and eat it. Still don't eat it? I heard that the food in many remote places is very weird, and I don't know how the savage flame horns will prepare it.

"Oh, what do you think about so much, you'll know tomorrow."

"Too."

Under the darkness of the night, the contingent on the road gradually quieted down, with only the crackling of firewood burning and the snoring of a few beasts serving as mounts.

The next day, the team set off again. As expected by Reed Ye and the others, as it approached noon, they saw a flat road that was obviously artificially created. There is also a stone tablet erected by the roadside, with the words "Yanhe Trading Area" written on it. An arrow is marked below the word, and the arrow points to the direction in which the road extends.

"Oh, it's really interesting." Qu Ce said.

"Keep going." The leader of the Mang tribe raised his hand and pointed to the front of the road.

There are eyes around, paying attention to this side, it should be the person with Flaming Horn.

The pavement is wide and beaten so hard that even the beasts walk on it. Can also walk smoothly.

Going forward along the road, not long after, there was a sudden exclamation in the team.

"Look, what is that?!"

The people in the line looked forward. In the field of vision, above the trees, there is a tall stone house standing there in the distance, exceeding the height of the trees. Because most of the trees in front of the road were cut down, there were no obstacles. They could clearly see the gray-white building with its "head" exposed.

Not long after they walked further, a wall appeared in front of them.

They are not uncommon about the wall made of stones, but the paintings on the wall shocked all of them.

It's not that the painting on it is scary, but the style and color of the painting have a great impact on people's vision.

In the green mountain forest, the sudden appearance of colors attracted a lot of attention.

Unlike the walls in many places, the walls on the Yanjiao side are smoother. The overly protruding parts of the stone on the wall were cut off, and the depressions were filled, so the wall became a good drawing board, and the paintings on it were more delicate and there were more changes.

There are many people in the paintings on the outer wall. Because of the collective stylization of the firm tribal thinking concept, most of the tribal painting styles today have one thing in common, that is, when drawing people, the shapes of the characters are slightly Go to the figurative personality beauty. But at the same time, it produces and strengthens the overall impact, especially in paintings that are displayed to outsiders. This characteristic is particularly obvious.

People from big tribes like Mang tribe and Weiba tribe can be said to have a lot of knowledge. Ordinary paintings would not surprise them so much, but the paintings on the walls in front of them gave them a different feeling.

The dark brown paint paints the land, and there are some people lined up on it, although the faces of the characters in the painting are basically the same due to the collective stylization. But the clothes and the weapons in their hands are slightly different, stone ropes, ropes, swords, spears, axes and sticks, and some strange tools, like broken knives, they have never seen before.

The people lined up in the picture have a solemn posture, which is set against the flame-like streamline pattern, with a specific rhythm and a sense of rendering. Due to the smoother wall, there are more places for painting techniques to be displayed, and the lines are drawn. The changes in hardness, softness and thickness are more vivid under the full color filling. Some paintings are also decorated with rare golden pigments to outline lines or fill. Some of the plants in the painting are painted in gold and purple, but most of the people who see them don't know those plants.

In other tribes, paintings with different thicknesses will look jerky and unsmooth, but here, there is more beauty due to the combination of points, lines and surfaces, smooth and delicate, without losing the madness of tribal style. wild.

Those are just a few of the paintings, there are more paintings in the back, and between each two groups of paintings are separated by some red flame-like patterns. There are obvious double-angle patterns in the flames. The flame decoration appears natural at the connection with each group of paintings. The curved spirals and arcs of the flame body are combined together, giving people a sense of flow, which can be smoothly juxtaposed between each group of paintings.

Not only figure paintings, but also beast paintings, all kinds of ferocious beasts that have never been seen before, are presented on the walls in primitive tribal-style paintings, coupled with the matching of lines and decorations, the colors are different. The impact, as well as the exaggerated methods of deformation, make people who see it feel a sense of fear at the first glance.

On the gray and white walls, the combination of large-scale paintings and colors, against the background of the surrounding green mountains and clear waters, makes the visual conflict more and more obvious. It can be said that everyone who is here for the first time is impressed by the paintings on the walls. profound.

Most of these paintings were made by Shao Xuan. Of course, Shao Xuan could paint more detailed and complex and more vivid, but that would be beyond the acceptable range of this period. Here, the mainstream is this primitive tribal style, and a little more than that is called improvement, called innovation. But if the style is completely changed at once, completely out of the mainstream and acceptable range of this period, it will not work, not to mention that people from other tribes can't appreciate it, even the people of the Yanjiao tribe will feel abrupt when they see it, or even feel Shao Xuan's aesthetic deformity.

The result was as Shao Xuan expected, and the people in Yanjiao were very satisfied with the final result on the wall.

The outsiders who have come one after another in the past few days will stop and stay when they see these, including the Mang tribe and Weiba tribe at this time.

"What kind of tree is this drawing?"

"do not know"

"What about that?"

"never seen it."

"And that... oh, I know the one over there, that's the crop that Yanjiao discovered before, what's it called?"

"Chinese cabbage?"

"That's right, that's the Chinese cabbage! When we went to the Murderer's Forest in the winter, we saw Yanjiao planting!"

The soldiers of the Mang tribe and the Weiba tribe in the team pointed at the pictures and discussed them.

In front of the team, the leaders of the Mang Tribe and the Weiba Tribe looked at the high wall in front of them and the landmark-like stone tower in the center of the trading area, and their moods were extremely complicated.

Is this the new habitat Yanjiao found?

Is this the so-called "Yanhe Trading Zone" established by Yanjiao?

It seemed, as if, it should have been... different from what they expected.

How do you say that?

I'm relieved to know you're not doing well. In the same way, knowing that Yanjiao is doing well, they are depressed.

Can a place like this be built, and life can be bad? (To be continued.)
