After crossing the lake and the sky, they followed the savages to a deep basin area surrounded by mountains. There are clear springs and luxuriant fruit trees. The buildings are made of polished stones mixed with clay, and the tops are covered with branches and hay. That structure limits the size of the house, but the neat wrap-around arrangement still feels spectacular. The circular street surrounded by houses is strewn with gravel and hay to prevent residents from getting muddy when they go in and out.
This civilized scene was beyond Luo Binhan's expectation. What surprised him even more was that there was a large area of suspected farmland on the gentle slope outside the village. Some kind of low green leafy plants were obviously artificially planted there. There was a wooden fence surrounding the farmland, and several animals with fat bodies and sheep-like heads were lying inside to rest.
Their existence aggravated Luo Binhan's doubts. He knew little about ancient history and culture, but he also understood that it was not unusual to change one's children for food in times of famine. If these primitive people hunted based on the lack of food, it would be easy for him to understand. However, judging from the environment in which they lived, this paradise was enough for the savages to eat and drink. With their current population size, they still have plenty to spare, so why bother traveling across the stars to eat living people? Is that just a desire for meat? Or some weird religious reason?
They walked all the way into the round house in the center of the village, where sat a strong male savage wearing an animal skin and bone crown. He was tall and muscular, and could even take up the space of two people when he sat down.
The old savage who sharpened the knife led them into the house, and then made gestures with the suspected leader. The savage leader watched intently. The leaf-like decorations tied to both sides of the crown swayed slightly under the light of the torch, giving off a cold sheen that was almost metallic.
That luster attracted Luo Binhan's attention. He observed it calmly for a long time, and was finally convinced that it was the bronze fluorescent tree leaves that he had seen in Liuzhu Town in the Mysterious Wild Zone. They were now tied with hair silk and suspended under the ears of the savage leader.
He quietly touched Joel Farman and motioned her to pay attention to the crown of the wildling leader. She obviously understood what that meant and nodded slightly.
"What are you going to do?" Luo Binhan asked in a low voice.
"It depends," Joel Farman replied. She touched the metal rod behind her back with her hand. Luo Binhan believed that the two thin rods were enough to withstand the swords, guns and clubs inside.
The old savage finished his report to his leader, then quietly stepped aside and sat down. Then the savage leader said to them: "Wow!"
This syllable was already quite familiar to Luo Binhan, and the other party's expression was not very hostile. He understood that this was probably some way of saying hello.
Luo Binhan looked back and found that Yaleriga had disappeared at some point. He clearly remembered that she was in another boat when they crossed the lake, still holding the baby dragon in her arms, so he was not worried about her safety. This dangerous woman either ran away with the dragon or hid nearby.
"Come on, Lao Mo," he pushed back and pushed Momoluo, "The decision is yours now!"
Momolo, who was designated as the temporary diplomat, stepped forward and sat down in front of the savage leader with a gentle attitude. This time he did not speak, but extended his hand to the other party.
The savage leader shook his head and put his palms together with Momolo in confusion. A circle of soft white light bloomed from Momolo's body.
This process lasted a full twenty minutes. During this period, Luo Binhan and others had nothing to do but sit there and wait. Several savages got into the house and brought many fruits with leaves and placed them in front of them.
The pile of fruit placed in front of Luo Binhan seemed to be richer than others, and there were even a few burnt blackened flakes lying on it. Luo Binhan tried to poke it and found that it was a steamed bun slice that had been roasted until it was burnt black on the outside.
He looked up in confusion and saw that the savage responsible for serving him the plate was none other than "Brother Xiaoxi" with sharp teeth. When Luo Binhan made eye contact with him, he grinned again and pointed at the sky.
Luo Binhan speculated that this was expressing some kind of reward, so he forced a smile, picked up a yellow fruit and started peeling it. When he was a little tired from eating, Momolo finally left the savage leader and returned to them with a confused expression.
Popa and Joel Farman looked at him with particular concern, but did not immediately know Wan Bozi's final whereabouts. Momolo just bowed politely to the savage leader, and then said: "I understand the general situation. I need to communicate with a few companions about this matter. Please wait patiently for a few days. I will definitely I’ll get back to you as soon as possible.”
These words made Luo Binhan confused. He only saw the savage leader solemnly pointing his finger at the sky and saying: "Woo!"
Together they walked out of the village where the savages lived. During this period, Luo Binhan observed Momoluo's expression and felt that the other person did not look sad, which seemed to indicate that Wanbozi had not suffered any misfortune, but at the same time he was very solemn, without any joy of successfully rescuing someone.
An uneasy atmosphere accompanied them into the wild forest, and Joel Farman finally couldn't help but ask Momolo about the result.
"Is she still alive?" she asked bluntly, "or was she eaten by them?"
Momolo immediately shook his head and said: "Ms. Wanbozi was not eaten. She seemed to have come here more than two hundred years ago, stayed for about ten years, and then disappeared."
"She has left this star plane?"
"It doesn't seem to be the case... Her spaceship seems to have been damaged for some reason, and it has been stored in the cemetery of Mr. Leader's ancestors. They promised Ms. Wanbozi to keep it for her, but one day she never came back, until now Three generations have passed, but we still haven’t found her. Mr. Leader knows that we are from the otherworld like her, and he wants to entrust us to help find her."
This answer was something Luo Binhan never expected. He and Marin looked at each other, and then asked, "Is this what you said you wanted to go back to discuss just now?"
"No, Mr. Luo. It is our duty to search for Ms. Wanbozi, so I have directly agreed. I think since Ms. Wanbozi did not take the spaceship, she should still stay on this planet. As long as Xuan and I Mr. Hong can always find some clues if he flies around the planet a few times every day."
Momolo put his hand on his chest with confidence: "Although this may take a while, as long as you think of the reunion between Mr. Popa and Ms. Wanbozi, the effort will definitely be worth it! I think Mr. Xuanhong must I completely understand this feeling!"
"Isn't it the first day you met our young master?" Luo Binhan said, "Or do you deliberately want to piss him off?"
Momolo stared at him with extremely innocent eyes. Luo Binhan had no choice but to change the subject: "Then what did you say to the leader in the end? Why does it sound like he made a very important request to you? Do you want you to go back and ask the young master for advice?"
"That's a cultural issue, Mr. Luo. These local residents seem to believe in a prophecy about the doomsday, so they keep crossing the star layer to hunt living people. When I was talking to the leader just now, he Tell me that the end of the world shown in the prophecy is coming soon. If the other world cannot be eaten, their world will be destroyed. But according to the prophecy, there will be a messenger representing light to save them and help them completely destroy the opposite world. wipe out."
When he said this, Momolo finally showed a troubled expression on his face. He said hesitantly: "The leader seemed to regard me as the prophesied messenger, and asked me to eat all the dark believers living in another world..."
"Fuck, what can you do?" Luo Binhan said, "You really want to eat living people? Isn't this a bit underage?"
"Of course not!"
Momolo suddenly took a step forward excitedly and grabbed Luo Binhan's hands.
"This thing is completely wrong!" he announced excitedly, "These local residents must have made something wrong! Although I don't know whether it is an error in prophecy or an error in interpretation, I want to correct this matter anyway! Mr. Luo, please help me change this planet!"
Luo Binhan looked down at his hands and suddenly trembled. He thought of the dead bird he had stepped on not long ago.
