Chapter 1480: Half-rolled map (1)
Walking in the quiet town, he would occasionally see a few children wandering around the empty streets, or taking off their pants to pee on the side of the street.
But adults were rarely seen.
Xu Qi ‘an speculated that these children were still weak and did not need to hide themselves every day to alleviate the side effects of the dark Voodoo.
When they grew up and their abilities improved, they would become like their parents, hiding in the corners every day.
could it be that granny Tiangang said that the dark venom tribe’s ‘financial situation’ isn’t good? it would be a wonder if it’s good. They waste most of their time on meaningless hide-and-seek. Xu Qian muttered in his heart.
When he first obtained the seven ultimate venomous worm, he felt that the side effects of the dark worm were very troublesome. He had to find time to hide himself every day, and he would hide for two to four hours.
They never thought that it would be a ” disaster ” if all the people of a race were like this.
actually, we can hide at night. There’s no need to hide during the day.
Xu Qi ‘an said.
The young man on the patrol team nodded.
“Of course there are people hiding at night, but most of them are unmarried. He didn’t have time at night when he got married.
in addition, the higher the level, the more the purpose of hiding is not just to eliminate the side effects. You’re also a great Grandmaster anmou, so you should understand.
The side effect was the most basic requirement of the dark vortex. If one wanted to increase their cultivation and nurture the dark vortex, they had to actively hide in the shadows and comprehend the power of the dark vortex.
As he spoke, he saw Xu Qi ‘an looking at the shadow under his feet. He smiled and said, ”
you’re not mistaken. The rest of the patrol team are all hiding in the shadows under my crotch.
‘What kind of shadow is this? do all of you from the dark venom division live under it …’ Xu Qi ‘an almost couldn’t help but curse.
Passing through quiet alleys, the two of them approached the center of the town, where it was much more densely populated. Pedestrians in twos and threes shuttled through the empty streets, with shops on both sides.
Xu Qi ‘an saw that among these pedestrians, there were people from the Central Plains and people from the southern border. They were wearing tattered cotton clothes and were not much better off than the refugees from the Central Plains.
The main thing was that most of these people didn’t have dark vortexes in their bodies.
they were slaves. Some were captured from the Central Plains, and some were from the southern border tribes who did not follow the rules. We exterminated them and divided their population equally among the seven tribes.
The young man on patrol said, ”
“These slaves are the precious labor force of our tribe.”
“The Gu tribe often does human trafficking with the Central Plains” caravans,”Xu Qi ‘an said after a moment of silence.
The young man was stunned for a while before he understood. He said, ”
“That’s right.
the trade caravans from the Central Plains know that we are short of manpower, so they often send people to the southern border in exchange for some herbs, wood, ores, and so on unique to the southern border.
And those people were most likely abducted … Xu Qi ‘an thought of the chai family’s ancestor. When the ancestor was young, his entire family was exterminated by his enemies, and he was sold to the corpse Gu clan in the southern border as a slave.
Later on, he somehow escaped back to the Central Plains and established a sect in his hometown of Xiang Zhou.
Oh right, he had to ask you Shi for the map. The half of the map that the chai family’s ancestor had was in the corpse worm division … At this time, Xu Qi ‘an saw a large house with a plaque with the words of the southern border.
this is the chief’s mansion. Please come in, Xu yinluo.
After stepping into the mansion, Xu Qi ‘an glanced at the layout of the courtyard. There was a road paved with bluestone leading to the inner courtyard. On the left side of the road, there were water tanks covered with wooden boards.
On the right side were deep holes with narrow calibers.
There were people hiding in the pits and tanks … Xu Qi ‘an looked away and followed the young man. After a while, they didn’t see anyone.
It was not until they entered the inner hall that Xu Qi ‘an saw the shadow of the dark venom tribe’s leader in black. He was sitting in the main seat with a cup of tea in his hand.
He had not seen the sun for many years, so his pale face revealed a smile.
“The tea is ready. Please take a seat, Xu yinluo.”
It was the etiquette of the Central Plains to serve tea to guests.
After Xu Qi ‘an took his seat, he said,
“Wait a moment, I’ve already sent someone to invite the elders. I can’t make the decision to send out troops alone.”
This was something they had already discussed during the battle yesterday.
In the time it took to brew half a cup of tea, eight shadows emerged from under the table and turned into eight elders, some middle-aged and some old.
the leader has already told us that Xu yinluo wants to invite the dark venomous tribe to the North to help great Feng fight against the rebel army of Yunzhou.
The white-haired old man seemed to be the great elder, and he said slowly, ”
“It’s not impossible, but let’s see what Xu yinluo can offer.”
Xu Qi ‘an took a sip of tea and said, ”
after the war is over, the great Minister will reward the dark venom tribe with 50000 taels of silver, 50000 rolls of silk, and 30000 dan of grain for five years.
The few elders were slightly moved and started to whisper to each other in the language of the southern border.
“Fifty thousand taels of silver can fill up my room.”
“50000 silk cloths can make our dark venom tribe members wear beautiful clothes.”
food is more important. Our people have never had time to hunt and farm.
The white-haired great elder coughed hard to interrupt the elders ‘whispering. Fortunately, Xu yinluo did not understand the southern border language, otherwise, his bargaining power would have been lost by these good-for-nothing people.
The great elder shook his head.
“But what if great Feng is defeated? Wouldn’t we have wasted our efforts?”
Xu Qi ‘an’s expression did not change.
“How does first elder wish to add?”
“Straightforward!” “Double,” the great elder said in a low voice.
“Straightforward!” Xu Qi ‘an stood up silently and cupped his hands.
I still have to make a trip to the heart Gu tribe. I won’t disturb you guys any longer. Goodbye.
The Shadow’s hand moved, but he held back. Seeing Xu Qi ‘an walk to the door, he sighed and said, ”
