Chapter 110: 【Chief Flame】

Chapter One Hundred and Ten
Roddy and Camus discussed all morning. Then Camus himself went back to the military camp outside the city. Before he left, Camus intentionally or unintentionally mentioned the handling of those mountain troops. Roddy thought for a while and said, "Look at them first. Just as you said. There is no benefit in killing more people."
Camus said indifferently: "Is that right, but the look in your eyes last night is not so murderous." After saying this, Camus went on his own.
Roddy sat for a while, and was touched by Camus's last words. He couldn't help but think: Camus looks rude and mighty. The hills in his heart are much deeper than mine...
Then he couldn't help but smile again. He was a famous general in the empire, and his prestige in the empire was second only to the old Tulip Duke. Of course he was very powerful.
After thinking for a while, he sent someone to Governor Schell. The Governor-General Schill looked worried, a look of trepidation, evasive and afraid to touch Roddy's eyes. Roddy sighed, knowing that he was afraid that he would pursue his nephew. Although disgusted in my heart, he reluctantly made a few words to calm him down with a gentle appearance. I didn't talk about negotiations, just that I wanted to send people to the mountains to meet the leaders of the mountain tribe, and then I would like to see if I could persuade them to submit.
As he spoke, Roddy's eyes were aimed at the governor intentionally or unintentionally, but he was sweating profusely with fright, and with a weeping face, he repeatedly said how weak his body might be, and he might not be able to adapt to the mountain climate. He also said that he was busy with things, and I was afraid that he would not be able to separate his leisure time into the mountains.
Roddy smiled coldly, and then said: "This matter, of course, you don't need to go to the Governor General. After all, I am your majesty's special envoy. This kind of comforting matter, I always have to go to show my sincerity."
The governor was greatly relieved, and pretended to dissuade a few words, saying that the mountain people are savage and ferocious, how can the Lord of the Duke personally commit dangers... In the end, Roddy was annoyed and said that you If I go or I go, the governor is so scared that he dare not say anything. Finally, I wished something like "The Duke's prestige is far-reaching, and forgive those mountain barbarians must be obedient." and ran away.
After more than ten days of rest, everything was stable in the military camp outside the city, and the army of the mountain tribes did not cause trouble again. Camus had already contacted Wuya's people, and then Wuya sent a leader of the Flame Tribe from the mountain to Ziye City to see Camus. Camus brought the leader to meet Roddy.
The boss's name was Wuyu, who was born tall and burly, with a burnt-yellow face, and brown eyes with a bit sturdy. He can speak the imperial language, but his words are not standard. When Camus told him that the Duke of Tulip would enter the mountain to meet their patriarch, Wuya, the boss was a little surprised. Thinking about it, he had also heard of the reputation of the Duke of Tulip. He did not expect that the other party would have such a big man to negotiate in person. After seeing Roddy, he saw Roddy was young, his face looked handsome and his expression was There was a bit of doubt and disdain. It seems that he did not expect the Duke of Tulip to be so young.
The mountain man is the heaviest warrior, Roddy is young after all, and has the handsome face of a playboy. Secondly, from the point of view of his body, he is considered tall among the imperials, and his body is quite strong, but compared with the warriors among the mountain barbarians, he is much thinner and weaker. Dan Dan and this Wuya sent him. Comparing the bosses, although the two are about the same size, the boss's muscles are knotted and his stout figure is like half a giant tree, so he compares Roddy.
In his eyes, when he saw the giant-like guard Rand next to Roddy, the respect in his eyes increased a little...
Wuyu brought a total of mountain warriors, each of which was five big and three thick, with wolf skin, and each one carried a long curved bow behind him. But he likes to apply some weird oil paints on his face, and good people make them look like fangs. Rand saw in his eyes, he was quite uncomfortable with these people in his heart, but he followed Roddy's side, his eyes full of vigilance.
On that day, Roddy took Rand into the mountain with Wuyu. Originally, Rand asked Roddy to bring some people, but Roddy refused. Roddy smiled faintly: "After we go, we will be on other people's turf. If they want to disadvantage us, no matter how many people they bring, it will be useless. We can't bring an army into the mountains, right? Is that a war or is it? Negotiations?" Seeing Rand's puzzled expression, Roddy said again: "I want to come to that Wuya can unify the mountain tribes and is also a hero, so naturally he will not do things like embarrassing the other party's messenger. "
From Ziye City to the south, the horse rushed in a day to the southeast camp of the Southern Army Corps. Roddy and others added some food and fresh water in the southeast camp, and followed Wuyu's men into the mountain.
The road into the mountain is in the Chifeng Gorge on the south side of Daying in the southeast. After a day's walk from a small path in the canyon, you enter the mountainous area.
The terrain in the canyon is extremely dangerous, and the road in the valley can only be driven by two people. The appearance is rugged, full of rocks of various water chestnut sizes, and the horses can only move slowly.
Those mountain people don't ride horses, they just walk in front of them. They wear grass and fields that don't know what plants are woven with bare feet, but they walk like flying on these rugged mountain roads.
In the evening, I walked out of the south exit of the canyon, followed a path and went up the mountain. Roddy and Rand finally gave up the horses, and those horses would go back in their own way. Both of them followed the mountain people on foot to the mountains.
Along the way, the trees are luxuriant with branches and leaves, and the roadside is full of unknown weeds. The trees in the mountains are dense, almost blocking the sun. Roddy and others walked for a while, and the trousers were covered with dew and the weeds. juice.
A mountain man drew a sharp long knife and walked forward to open the way, cutting off the branches blocking the way. Breathing the humid air in the woods, Roddy only felt very uncomfortable.
The more he walked into the mountains, the thicker the surrounding trees became. Seeing those giant trees that usually required two or three people to hug him, Roddy couldn't help sighing in his heart. The mountain man Wu Yu said proudly: "What are these? In our place, the biggest tree is usually too much for more than a dozen people!"
At night, everyone stopped to rest. The way these mountain people stayed in the camp was also very strange. They didn't allow Rand to light a fire, saying that living in the mountains was too dangerous. Rand asked them aloud, if there is no fire, what if any beast comes? The mountain people grinned, but they used ropes and sharp branches to set up a few warning traps around, and then took out those weird oil paints and smeared them on the exposed skin. Randomly found a big tree, these sturdy and tall mountain people climbed up the tree like monkeys, found a tree trunk and fell asleep.
Roddy and Rand looked at each other. They couldn't do it by climbing up the tree to sleep. Even if they could climb up, they couldn't sleep. I'm afraid they would fall off when they turned over in the middle of the night.
Wuyu and the others ignored the two at all. When these mountain people looked at Roddy and the two, they all looked a bit hostile. In the evening, it was even more gloating, as if waiting to see them make a fool of themselves.
Roddy didn't say a word, but just found a big tree at random with Rand and sat down under the tree, leaning on the trunk and closing his eyes to rest.
In the middle of the night, the cold wind was blowing in the woods, and I don't know what kind of bird's hiss was heard in my ears, and the long howling of wild beasts was faintly heard in the distance, and the calls of those wild insects in the grass made Roddy upset. In the middle of the night, Rand couldn't help but jump up from the ground and scratch and pat, trying to disperse the mosquitoes that were biting at him. This action awakened the mountain people who were sleeping on the tree. They all looked at Lanter and laughed and pointed.
In anger, Rand couldn't help pulling out his sword and glaring at them.
Roddy also stood up, suppressed the anger in his heart, stopped Rand, and said coldly to that Wuyu: "Wuyu! I want you to come to our Ziye City from the mountain. We are all good to your warriors. Good wine and meat, now we can be regarded as coming to your site. Is that how you mountain people treat guests!"
As soon as he said this, Wuyu's laughter stopped. Although he couldn't see it in the dark, his face was ashamed. He drank a few words of mountain language at the companions on the tree, and those people gradually stopped. laughter. Wuyu jumped down from the tree, strode to Roddy, and whispered: "Yes! It's me who is wrong with Wuyu! Isn't this the way we mountain people treat guests!" He took out one from his arms The little cloth bag, it was the oil they put on their faces during the day, and whispered: "Apply this to your body, and the bugs in the mountains won't bite you."
The oil paint inside was really unpleasant, and another strange smell, Lantrodi was helpless, pinching his nose and applying the oil paint on his body. Although the smell is unpleasant, but fortunately, after applying it, the mosquitoes around were avoided far away, and no longer provoke the two of them.
At dawn, the mountain people jumped down from the tree. The first thing they did was to kneel on the ground and bow down to the south, in their mouths as if they were chanting a spell, with a pious expression on their faces. It seems to be worshiping some gods.
Roddy was curious and couldn't help asking Wuyu on the road. That Wuyu's attitude towards Roddy was a little more kind, and told him that he was worshipping the patron saint of their Flame Tribe. As for the name of the patron saint, he could only say it in the language of the mountain tribe, and Roddy couldn't help but smile wryly after hearing a string of weird pronunciations.
After walking in this way for a few days, the forests in the mountains became denser and denser. Among the rolling mountains, there were big mountains and hills connected one by one. In the Western Zhou Dynasty, the mountains were dense and verdant, with flocks of birds. In the morning, you can still see white mist surrounding some towering peaks.
Various wild animals in the woods gradually increased, wild boars, hares, foxes, and deer. These animals didn't seem to be afraid of people. When they saw them walking, they just ran away and looked at them from a distance.
The food carried by Roddy and others has been eaten long ago, but these mountain people seem to be born jungle hunters. Everyone has a good archery skill. The arrows they use are not the same as the arrows used by the imperial army. Made of metal. Most of them are inlaid beast teeth or the like.
They are good at running and walking in the mountains. I have plenty of energy and a strong body, familiar with the environment in this mountain. Roddy secretly calculated that if he wanted to fight such a nation in the mountains, he would have to suffer a lot. Camus' words are not exaggerated.
Originally, these mountain people didn’t really value Rodilante and the two, until one day everyone walked to the edge of a spring stream in the mountain, caught a few fish, and prepared to cook the fish (though these people are good names " The "flame" tribe, but it seems to rarely use fire, which makes Roddy very strange), Rand went to the stream to chop wood for the fire.
He drew out his broad sword and drank in a low voice. After a loud noise, a large tree with a thick waist was cut off by his sword, and fell down amidst the dumbfoundedness of those mountain people. .
The mountain people from Wuyu to his men were stunned. After a while, suddenly they started yelling. They ran up and looked at Rand left and right, then enthusiastically hugged him, whispered and said something that Chase Rand didn’t understand, with admiration and surprise on their faces, and even more curious, they grabbed Rand directly. The sword looked over and over.
Wuyu told Roddy that even the more powerful people in their clan had to chop such a thick tree at least seven or eight times with an axe.
Roddy moved in his heart and couldn't help asking, "Then what about your leader Wuya? How good is he?"
Wuyu's face immediately showed a pious and respectful expression, and his face was extremely serious: "Chief Wuya is a warrior given to us from the sky! He is the of heaven! He is the protector of our mountain people! How can we compare with the gods! "
Roddy didn't believe it and smiled casually. Seeing that he didn't believe him, Wu Yu immediately showed an angry expression on his face, arguing loudly how great and terrifying their chief Wuya was.
Finally, Wuyu said irritably, and said loudly: "I tell you, our chief is the greatest! Last time we fought with the Silver Moon tribe, the chief chief summoned the great axe of the mountain and placed the silver moon tribe. The hilltop of the mountain was leveled with their stockade!! This is true. Many fighters of our Flame Tribe have seen it with their own eyes, and I can see it clearly!"
Seeing the impatient and simple expression on Wuyu's face, Roddy's heart moved, without a look on his face, and continued: "Mountain God's great axe? What does it look like?"
"It's amazing! It's amazing!" Wuyu's face was full of envy, and then he looked respectful, and said solemnly: "The Chief Chief stood on a hill and shouted a few words. Then his body suddenly changed. It was several times bigger, just like a giant! Then he reached out and grabbed a huge battle axe from the sky! We haven't seen it clearly. The Chief Chief went down with an axe, and the hill of the Silver Moon tribe has been cut flat! There is nothing left! There is nothing left! Stockades, men, women, children, old people, houses, trees, stones... there is nothing left!"
Roddy and Rand both had different hearts, they couldn't help but exchanged glances.

[Regarding the lifting of the ban on the public version, it is indeed very slow now, I am sorry everyone. No way, the publisher asked me to slow down. The release of the ban can only be accelerated after the first few volumes have been published. Three volumes have been published in November. It is estimated that the progress of the public version will be exceeded before this month, and then the release of the ban can be accelerated.
Let me tell you the truth, now putting these chapters in VIP will not lift the ban. It does not benefit me personally. It has been so long, and subscriptions will not increase. Lifting the ban will not lift the ban. It will not affect me personally. It is a requirement of the publisher.
I have encountered this kind of thing several times. I wrote "Hippie Smiley" at the beginning, and it was the same with "The City in the Eyes of Yu", but I can say with confidence that the publishing progress of this month's publishing house is fast. After the public version, I will definitely speed up the lifting of the ban! !
If you are suspicious of dancing, then please read my other two books "Hippie Smiley" and "The City in the Eyes of Yu", all of which have been posted by the public after the publishing problems were fixed! !
So, I hope everyone can realize my difficulties. After all, after signing the contract, I will not have the final say on how to get this book in the future. I always have to consider the opinions of the publisher. But I promise that after the publication progress catches up, the speed of lifting the ban will be accelerated! ! ! 】
