However, the mage doesn't seem to have that idea about me.
Since meeting her, she has almost always had a very cold expression.
Of course, it's not directed at me.
She has this attitude towards everyone.
Speaking of which, this young mage is quite kind.
They discovered the weirdness of my body, but they didn’t do any random experiments on me, such as dissection or anything like that. I’m already very grateful!
When it gets dark, the market town becomes deserted.
Every household is also closed for rest.
In this day and age people go to bed very early.
If there was a time, it would probably be around seven o'clock in the evening, when it would be quiet outside.
Before going to bed, the mage carefully inserted the staff into the soil, and then muttered to himself to the staff, as if he was praying daily.
While praying, I heard her call herself "Mingqiu", which should be her name.
Along the way today, I heard them talk a lot.
It seems that everyone in the Tu tribe has the surname Ming.
The older the time, the fewer the surnames. It is normal for people in a tribe to have one surname.
After praying, Mingqiu lay down and went to sleep.
I lay between two beds of dirt.
I saw Ming Qiu pick off two big shells from his body and put them on the bedside.
She was also seen taking off her white fur skirt and putting it aside.
Unfortunately, due to the angle, I can't see the rest.
Only the scene when she worshiped during the day came to my mind...
late at night.
The big buck-toothed snorer was so loud that I couldn't sleep.
I was very upset, wondering why it took so long for my numbness to heal this time!
At this time, I suddenly heard footsteps coming from the yard.
Someone climbed over the wall and came in!
Immediately afterwards, the stone door was pushed open.
A man walked in quietly, holding a bronze sword.
Blood stains can clearly be seen on the bronze sword!
If nothing else, he should have just finished killing people!
After the man came in, he looked at the two beds and was a little confused.
It seems like they don’t know who to kill first!
Soon, he saw the scepter stuck in the soil, and then walked directly towards Mingqiu's bed...
I'm so anxious!
I wanted to remind Ming Qiu, but no sound came out at all.
The man stepped closer to the soil bed.
"Ouch!"
Suddenly, he let out a scream.
It turns out he stepped on me!
The man looked down and was stunned.
It turns out that the person who came was none other than the little leader of the Jin clan who went to massacre the village last night!
Last night he pierced my heart with a sword!
Now that you see me lying here with my eyes open, you will inevitably be surprised!
"who?"
The shout from the little leader of the Jin clan immediately woke Mingqiu up.
On the contrary, he had big buck teeth, slept soundly, snored loudly, and had no idea that there was any danger in the room.
Realizing that he had been exposed, the Jin tribe man quickly came to his senses and stabbed Ming Qiu with his sword!
Ming Qiu dodged by turning over, grabbed the scepter, and started fighting with the man.
Their moves are very simple and primitive.
But there is a strange energy between each move.
Whether it is the bronze sword of the Jin clan man or the scepter of Ming Qiu, it will emit a magical luster, but the luster and color of the two are completely different.
Men of the Jin tribe are brighter, while those of Mingqiu men are darker.
After fighting for a long time, the two of them couldn't decide the outcome.
After all, this is a market town of the Tu ethnic group. The men of the Jin ethnic group now come in single-handedly to assassinate and do not dare to fight.
Realizing that Ming Qiu could not be killed so easily, he soon began to change his strategy, fighting and retreating.
When he retreated to the door, he feinted, turned around and ran away!
"Don't go!"
Ming Qiu hurriedly chased after him.
Soon, I lost sight of the two men, but the sound of fighting continued in the yard. It was probably that the Jin tribe man was entangled by Ming Qiu and could not escape in a short time.
This went on for several minutes.
It seems like someone climbed over the wall and came in again.
And they are all accomplices of the Jin clan!
Mingqiu also tried calling for outside help, but no one came to help her at all.
The worst result is that the Tu people living nearby have been assassinated by the Jin people!
Including the priest next door!
Otherwise, if the fighting was so loud, it would be impossible for no one to come.
Judging from the footsteps and voices, there were seven Jin clan members in the yard.
When seven people fight against one, Ming Qiu is no match.
Soon, Ming Qiu's screams came in, he must have been injured!
After a while, the fighting stopped.
Mingqiu also lost his voice.
I felt a chill in my heart and felt it was a pity.
Such a beautiful girl died like this!
Human life in this era is really worthless!
Soon, the little leader of the Jin clan spoke and said: "Xia Cheng, go to the house and take that man with you! By the way, there is also a big bucktooth who is sleeping soundly, kill her!"
Soon, a Jin tribe man named Xia Cheng came in.
He glanced at me first, then looked towards the two earthen beds, and said with a "Hey": "Brother, you don't have big buck teeth!"
Hearing this sentence, I was shocked to realize that at some point, the snoring sound of the big bucktooth disappeared.
Since Xia Cheng didn't see her, there was no need to ask, this big bucktooth must have been Tu Eun again!
This guy is really not interesting!
Ming Qiu kindly took her in, but she didn't go out to help just now. Instead, she hid by herself!
The little boss outside said: "An insignificant person, just run away. Bring that man out!"
Xia Cheng bent down and picked me up, saying, "Brother, why are you carrying such a burden?"
The little boss said: "There is something weird about this man, take it back and show it to the wizard!"
While we were talking, I was carried to the yard by Xia Cheng.
Only then did I realize that Ming Qiu was not dead, but was tied up and her mouth was gagged.
In addition, she was hit by several swords and was bleeding.
Seeing that Ming Qiu is still alive, I feel inexplicably happy.
Although she couldn't be said to be any great favor to me, at least she didn't harm me.
I was given food to eat, but of course, I didn’t eat anything.
Give me a place to live, even if it's just on the ground.
The Jin people took Mingqiu and me, opened the door directly, and walked out in a big way.
There was a bullock cart parked at the door.
This ox cart is much more advanced than Ming Qiu’s.
First, there are two black cows pulling the cart, and these black cows look very young and strong, and even look a bit like horses!
Furthermore, there are two wheels under the wooden board being pulled behind.
The middle of the wheel seems to be made of bronze, and the outside is wrapped with a layer of wood.
Bronze is for stability and not easily damaged.
The wood is used to reduce bumps, similar to the shock-absorbing effect of rubber tires.
The seven Jin tribe members, plus Ming Qiu and I, were all crowded on the bullock cart.
Through conversation, I learned that this little leader of the Jin clan is named Xia Chun.
There are not many texts from this era.
Many words and phrases have not yet been coined, especially idioms.
In addition to having few surnames, the names are also very simple.
Maybe there will be many names with the same name.
Of course, the population at this time was also very sparse.
A person without status probably doesn't deserve a name either.
Black Bull is very fast.
By the time dawn came, we had covered almost a hundred miles!
I was shaken up.
But these people seem to have long been accustomed to it, and even enjoy it.
When the sun came out, we passed by a lake.
When we got here, the bullock cart stopped.
Xia Chun ordered people to untie the noose and lead the black cattle into the water. It turned out that they were two buffaloes!
To be more precise, it should be amphibious.
The black cattle were eating grass and drinking water. Xia Chun and others also took out dry food and meat and began to supplement their nutrition.
Their food is obviously much better than that of the Tu people.
The meat smells delicious!
I couldn't help but swallow my saliva!
