Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Loeb is the leader of the Pine Tree Tribe. His father was also the leader of the tribe before. Unfortunately, during the genocide war a few years ago, his father resolutely led the tribe's warriors towards the enemy in order to protect him and some tribesmen from leaving safely.  , bought them time to escape, but unfortunately he died on the battlefield.

    After escaping the disaster, Loeb took the remaining tribesmen and hid in the mountains, where they only lived by hunting and collecting wild fruits. As a result, due to lack of food and the harsh environment, many tribesmen fell ill and died.  There are only about a hundred people left.  Later, after knowing that the enemy had withdrawn from the Pine Tree Plateau, they dared to come back to live again.

    Thinking of what happened to his tribe, Loeb couldn't help but sigh. At the same time, he felt extremely hatred for the tribe that killed his father, but he also knew that he would never be able to take revenge personally in this life, because just a few people  Months ago, more than a dozen people from other tribes fled to the plateau, but they were caught and killed. Before the other party died, he learned from these people that the tribe that killed his father was defeated by the Han people from outside.  , and later they were exterminated by the dwarf black people.

    Originally, the dwarf black people were ordered to wipe out all the native tribes, and the Keku River Basin was also under their purge. The tribes had been severely weakened by the previous wars and were no match for the dwarf black people, so they were exterminated one after another. Young men and women  Crawled and sold into slavery, the dozen or so people who escaped to the Pine Tree Tribe were the victims of one of the tribes.  Fortunately, the intelligence that the dwarf black people may have obtained shows that the Pine Tree Tribe was exterminated a few years ago. In addition, the Pine Tree Tribe is blocked by mountains, making it very difficult to enter and exit.  So the dwarf black people simply ignored the pine tree tribe.

    After hearing this information, Loeb and other tribesmen breathed a sigh of relief.  Congratulations for escaping.  But it was this news that made Loeb firmer in his determination to kill those people.  Because he was worried that the arrival of these people would leak the news that their Pine Tree Tribe still existed, so all the dozen outsiders were killed and silenced.

    Thinking of the resentful looks of those dozen people before they died, Loeb showed a disdainful smile, and then the harpoon in his hand suddenly plunged down, just in time to pierce a large harpoon that swam in front of him to the bottom of the river.

    "Haha, the leader has caught another fish. It just so happens that each of our families can get one!" I saw that Loeb had caught another big fish.  The tribesman standing next to him, who was also holding a harpoon and waiting for the fish, said happily, and the others were also happy.

    The tribal structure of the Pine Tree Tribe is very simple. It can be said that it is still in the primitive society. Everything in the tribe belongs to the leader and everyone at the same time. Anyone can use it as long as there is a need. As for food,  necessities.  They are all distributed fairly. Of course, the power to distribute food lies in the hands of the leader, and he is responsible for the results of the distribution.  No one is allowed to have objections, otherwise it will be regarded as a provocation by the enemy, and in the worst case, they may even be executed.

    This is a wide river.  But the river is not deep and the water is very clear.  Standing on the shore, you can see fish of all sizes swimming in the water.  The men from the Pine Tree Tribe who came with Loeb stood in groups in the river.  He held the harpoon in his hand and stared motionlessly at the fish in the water. From time to time, someone would suddenly drop the harpoon in his hand, but it would always hit nothing.

    Loeb tied the fish he caught with rattan, then looked up at the sky and found that the sun was about to set. He immediately ordered: "That's it for today. Everyone needs to pack up. It's time to go back to the tribe!"

    After hearing Loeb¡¯s order, everyone in the river relaxed. Everyone walked to the shore, then packed up the fish caught today, picked up the harpoon and started walking towards the tribe.

    There are now forty-one young men in the Pine Tree Tribe, thirty of them in this team, and the remaining eleven men guard the tribe. After all, it is not peaceful on this plateau, and there are occasionally wild animals.  There may even be outsiders rushing into the tribe, so the security in the tribe must not be relaxed.

    Thirty people carried harpoons and picked up the fish they caught today. While discussing tonight's dinner, they quickly rushed to the tribe. Although the river was still some distance away from the tribe, they had long been used to it.  , so it was very fast. It took only one meal to return to the tribe.

    But as soon as he returned to the tribe, Loeb felt something was wrong. Then a tribesman came running over and said breathlessly: "Headman, it's bad, Su Luo is missing. We are looking for him all around the tribe."  I searched all over, but still can¡¯t find anyone!¡±

    "What?" Loeb was also extremely anxious after hearing this. Su Luo was his wife's brother, and he was also the person second only to him in the tribe. Usually when he took people out to hunt, Su Luo was responsible for arranging things in the tribe.  , the other party will never disappear for no reason, and according to his responsibilities, he will not leave the tribe too far.  It is precisely because of knowing this that Su Luo's disappearance is a matter of concern to Loeb.??, it seems a bit weird.

    "Are there any signs of the arrival of wild animals or outsiders?" Although Loeb was anxious, he still asked calmly. His intuition told him that this matter might not be simple, so he had to ask clearly first.

    "No, we also searched the surroundings specifically and found no footprints of wild beasts or strangers at all!" Brother Lin and Chaozi are both experienced scouts, so they naturally know how to deal with it without leaving any traces.

    "Headman, should we send someone to look for it?" While Loeb was deep in thought, the person who came back with him suggested. After all, Su Luo is one of the important figures in the tribe. He is missing now. If not  It would definitely not make sense if we went out to look for it.

    Loeb also knew that he should send someone to search for it, but he always felt a little uneasy. This kind of uneasiness had happened before, a few years ago, the night before their tribe was exterminated, so he felt very hesitant.  , after a while, Loeb finally made up his mind and said: "Wait a minute, let's go back to the tribe first"

    Before Loeb could finish his words, he heard a rush of footsteps not far away, and then a man from the Pine Tree Tribe ran over and said in a hurry: "Headman, we found a pool of blood, just outside the tribe.  Not far away!"

    "Take me and have a look!" Although Loeb was very uneasy and was just about to go back to the tribe to check out the situation, but now that even blood has been found, he, the leader, must go and have a look.  But even in this situation, Loeb remained calm. He asked the two tribesmen to take away today's prey, and then led thirty young and strong tribesmen, holding harpoons, to rush to the place where the blood was found.

    This is a road leading to the tribe's rice fields. The road is full of footprints, and not far from the tribe, a dark red bloodstain appears on the road, and this bloodstain extends into the distance. It seems that it is heading towards  The direction of the rice fields.  Seeing this situation, no matter how careful Loeb was, he had to take his tribesmen to follow the blood stains to see, otherwise he would not be able to explain to the tribesmen.

    Loeb has walked this path countless times, but today's situation made him particularly nervous. Moreover, the sun has set now, and there is only a hint of sunset in the west. Unfortunately, this sunset cannot shine on the ground.  , so on this plateau, darkness has come.

    Not long after Loeb and the others walked along this path, they found several pools of suspicious bloodstains on the way. This made Loeb a little suspicious. It seemed that someone was deliberately leading them here. Could it be that this was the case?  Is there any trap in it?

    Just when Loeb wanted to ask the tribesmen to stop, they had already arrived in front of a forest. As long as they passed through this forest, they would reach the tribe's rice fields. However, when Loeb looked at this dark forest, he suddenly felt a surge of emotion in his heart.  There was a sense of fear, because if someone really set a trap, then this woods would be the best place to ambush.

    "Hey, there's someone over there, it seems to be Su Luo!" Suddenly someone next to Loeb shouted, and following the direction he pointed, they saw a vague person lying in the weeds to their right.  Judging from the clothes he was wearing, he seemed to be Su Luo.

    Seeing this situation, there was no need for Loeb to give orders. The tribesmen behind him swarmed up, wanting to see what happened to Su Luo?  But just before they reached Su Luo, they suddenly felt their feet go soft, and then there was a "bang" sound, and the fastest runners fell into a big trap.

    And as soon as these people fell in, they immediately let out shrill screams. Those who were lucky enough not to fall in looked down, and they were all so frightened that they broke out in cold sweats. They saw rows of sharp wooden sticks inserted upside down in the trap.  Sticks, all of their tribesmen were stabbed by these wooden sticks, and one even had his stomach pierced and couldn't even scream.

    Before the natives could rejoice that they had escaped the disaster, suddenly the sound of a bowstring was heard from the woods nearby, followed by several arrows shot out rapidly, catching several natives off guard.  , several long arrows all hit the target, and two people were even killed by one arrow.

    This finally made the remaining natives wake up. Everyone screamed and turned around to run away. After all, they were not an army, they were just ordinary natives. When faced with unknown dangers, they naturally and instinctively wanted to escape.  .

    It was a pity that the people in the forest had no intention of letting them go. Then two more wavelengths of arrows were shot out, and as a result, more people were hit by arrows. Although only one or two people were actually killed, most of them were seriously injured and were basically dead.  Lost the power to resist.

    Loeb, who was standing on the path, was also shocked by the sudden change in front of him. When he saw the tribesmen falling one by one, he woke up and shouted to the tribesmen to run away. However, the other party had already set a trap for them. How could this be possible?  Will you let them escape?  (To be continued)
