Poison brother in ancient times

Chapter 118

Probably forced Bai Rui to go out to dance the sacrificial dance, and the others had a conscience for a while, and released the hostage Hunter Xing back early.As soon as Lie Xing came back, he saw Bai Rui, and thought he ran out to meet him, but he ran to the well of his house and fetched a bucket of water—there is a separate well where his house is.

Before Lie Xing saw clearly what he was doing fetching water, Bai Rui hurried back to the house, not even realizing that Lie Xing was just a dozen steps behind him.After entering the door, Lie Xing understood at a glance that it was Bai Rui who was tossing his wine again.

"How is it?" Lie Xing asked standing beside Bai Rui.

"!" Bai Rui was squatting on the ground, because he was too focused, so he was startled by the sudden voice, and sat down on the ground.

"Are you okay?" Lie Xing quickly helped him up.

"It's okay, Lie Xing, the wine is ready, come and taste it!" Bai Rui was so excited, he held the wine urn and handed it to Lie Xing's mouth. wine.

"Don't, I'll get a spoon, it's easy to spill it, it's a waste."

"Row!"

Later, he took the spoon and the bowl, and the two sat on the ground facing each other, with the wine jar between them.Lie Xing served Bai Rui a bowl first, and then his own.

He took a sip of the wine, and his first impression was that it was actually quite unpleasant.

Bai Rui uses honey and a kind of sweet and sour fruit that is similar to blackcurrant, but bigger. The honey is not the honey made by stupid bees. It is experimental, and it is too wasteful after failure, so it is the honey of "surrendering" bees.The fruit is relatively good, and they are all big and plump without insect eyes.However, the container is poorly sealed, the indoor temperature is uneven, and the brewed wine has not been purified and distilled. It is certain that the color and taste of the wine are not good.

The taste of this wine is like the taste of some kind of overripe fruit with a lot of sugar: "It tastes... quite weird."

Bai Rui also drank a couple of sips, the excitement of successfully making wine at the beginning has calmed down a lot, and he also knew that if the thing he brewed would be served in the sewers of the modern earth, but who told this to be a primitive world, could such a wine appear? This result is already not easy.

"Xunxing, if you are not used to drinking, then stop drinking."

"It's okay." Lie Xing held the spoon and wanted to fill it up again.

"Don't." Bai Rui raised his hand to cover the mouth of the wine jar, "I can drink all of these by myself, if you are not used to it, don't force yourself."

"It's not forced." Lie Xing smiled at Bai Rui, "The taste of the wine is really not good, but after drinking it, there is a... strange feeling, fever, and a little dizzy, by the way, I'll dance with you drunk When I danced for nine days, I felt the same as watching it for a long time. I really like that feeling."

The old man is old, and the two of them can tell the truth from each other's lies. Bai Rui saw that Xunxing didn't wrong him, and he was really interested in wine.

Bai Rui let go of his heart, the two of them chatted and drank each other.

They were talking about the affairs of the tribe, the news brought by Dad Hei, and two new small tribes wanting to attach themselves.For new recruits, over the years, they have already changed from being in a hurry to being handy.

"However, according to Hei Pa and Guo Pa, there is a tribe that has special requirements."

"Is there any request?" Those who decide to attach themselves to others are all relatively poor small tribes, with a general population of about one hundred. Such tribes follow others when they can eat and drink enough. It is really rare for such tribes to ask for conditions.

"The other party said that they would take the ancestor spirit away."

"The remains of ancestors? Idols?"

"No, it's a corpse. Do you still remember what Papa Guo looked like back then?"

"Father Guo? Mummy!"

"Yes." Lie Xing nodded, "They live in caves below the cliff, and there are many hollow stone crevices on the cliff above them. After the people in their clan died, they were placed in those crevices."

"This matter is more troublesome, but...it's hard to say." Bai Rui frowned. Maocheng is short of people, but even a tribe that honestly attaches to it will have to go through a "trial period of at least half a year and at least one year" ", those who failed, no matter how poor they are, have to go back and forth, and those who have a lot of things at the beginning are even more insensitive.If there were other troubles, of course they turned around and left, but the mummy... Thinking about the father of Guo at that time, he really felt a little sympathetic.

If Dad Guo hadn't been revived just before the catastrophe, it's hard to say whether their family would have left that rocky mountain and that basin.And even if Dad Guo can't be resurrected in this life, will they leave him alone?

"Although the situation in that tribe is similar to that of Papa Guo, it's also different." Lie Xing stroked Bai Rui's head, rubbing Bai Rui's wig with too much force.

"Well, I understand too. What are Hei Pa and Guo Pa's plans?"

"Refused, after all, it is impossible to bring all those corpses here, and even if they are brought here, the people in this tribe have to spend the probationary period in the outer city. They look like this... After all, we are not begging people to come. , probably, they won’t accept those people in the end.” Lie Xing’s voice became lower and lower, and finally it disappeared completely, and it turned out that he was leaning against the wall and fell asleep.

Bai Rui's face was blushing, he tilted his head, and thought for a long time what Xingxing said about "they look like this", and then he clapped his hands suddenly: "Indeed! Dad did the right thing."

The people of that tribe should say that they wanted to be attached, but they took out the matter of transporting their ancestor spirits. No matter how troublesome this matter is, it should have been resolved by their tribe themselves.This shows that the people in this tribe are too self-righteous and slippery. This is completely different from the situation when Bai Rui's family guarded Father Guo at the time—if Father Guo didn't come back to life, they would have to deal with carrying the fruit by themselves even if they left. If Dad's problem can't be solved, then he won't agree to follow him.

"Xunxing? Xingxing~Xingxing!" Bai Rui jumped on Xingxing, squinting his eyes and shaking him, "Sleeping? No! You're pretending to be sleeping to tease me! Look at me... I'll punish you! "

Bai Rui's tongue was too big, and he couldn't speak fluently. He untied himself and Lie Xing's loincloths in twos and twos, and pushed them to the ground.However, he was in a hurry to make preparations, but his eyes were dizzy, and his fingers and hair were shaking.Lie Xing slept soundly, and relaxed his whole body, allowing him to toss about, and the two sides "cooperated" in the foreplay, which was pretty good.When Bai Rui raised his gun and went into battle, he was even more powerful and quicker than usual, which woke up Xingxing.

Lie Xing was in a daze, but he could still tell who was on his body. After subconsciously struggling twice, he wrapped his arms around Bai Rui's shoulders...

╮(╯▽╰)╭One is not aware of drinking and getting drunk, and the other is thinking that although he was not good at drinking in the past, he would not be put down by this low-alcohol fruit wine. The bodies of the two It's the first time I've come into contact with alcohol, one gets drunk, and the other gets messed up.In fact, some people in the square on the other side came to look for the two of them after they had made a fuss, but they heard their passionate voices before entering the door, so they could only touch their noses and leave.So, it's fine to get drunk.

***

The next morning, Mao Wu came to knock on the door stepping on the morning dew, because the two of them who had slept all night beside the firepit on the first floor got up in a hurry after being drunk.

There are no rules these days, the two of them had to wash and fetch water, so they put Mao Wu into the house.

The door was closed all night, and Mao Wu smelled strange as soon as he entered the door. Looking at the two of them, especially Xun Xing, it was obvious that they hadn't cleaned it yesterday. Even if Bai Rui kept covering it up for him, Mao Wu would I didn't look at it specifically, but those leaked are enough to let people know how fierce the battle between the two is.Then Mao Wu couldn't help thinking of the time the day before yesterday when it was his turn to clean the meeting hall with Mao Shou. Of course he and Mao Shou were in harmony, but it was so frequent and so intense every time, so don't think about it. Mao Wu felt emotional: Sure enough, he is a young man with good physical strength.

Millet porridge was also boiled on the firepit, and the two of them sat down after washing.

"What's the matter?" Bai Rui asked, usually everyone would go to the conference hall to settle things when they had enough food and drink, and it was rare for them to come to the door early in the morning.

"The people of Jiaotou City have risen."

With their expansion over the years, it is known that there are four other places called cities in the outside world: Jiaotou City, Shuiyou City, Wood City, and Yanyan City.

Among them, Jiaotou and Yanyan were relatively close to them, but if they walked on two legs, not counting the time to stop and hunt, it would take about half a year to walk.Shuiyou City is relatively far away, among which Jiaotou City is warlike, and Yanyan City is relatively peaceful and has developed agriculture at least according to the legend.The water unit is farther away, and it is said that the water system around it is developed, so the business is prosperous.As for Mucheng, it is known from legends that it is the oldest place of origin of the Mu people, but no one knows where it is anyway.

"Is war going to start?" Bai Rui asked, because of his familiarity with Jiaotou City, Bai Rui's first reaction was to start a war.

"No, a few people from Jiaotou City who came to our side came forward on their own initiative, saying that they hoped to establish a friendship between the two sides, and invited us to participate in the Harvest Sacrifice held in Jiaoniu City next autumn."

"So friendly?" Bai Rui was puzzled, "And what does that mean by coming to us?"

"The news from your psychic channeling before, Jiaotou sent people over. It seems that what happened in our city scared them." Lie Xing explained with a smile, and at the same time filled a bowl of millet porridge and handed it to Bai Rui, "Drink it while it's hot."

The psychic psychic is the nine days when Bai Rui refines the phoenix Gu. Only the four members of Bai Rui's family know about the phoenix Gu.

"Yeah." Bai Rui took the millet porridge and drank it honestly.

Lie Xing filled the second bowl of millet porridge and held it in his hand: "Are you really inviting us, or is there some hidden hand?"

Mao Wu spread out his hands, and the one who didn't see outside also poured a bowl for himself: "They just revealed their identities last night, it was just a quick meeting, and I haven't had any in-depth contact with them yet."

Lie Xing was a little surprised why no one came to call him last night, and then he was a little embarrassed when he realized it - he remembered the Hu Tianhudi after drinking with Bai Rui yesterday.

When Mao Wu left, Lie Xing looked at the wine urns with a complicated expression.The wine doesn't taste good, but the warm and intoxicating feeling after being drunk is very comfortable, but it's really a mistake to be drunk.

"It's a mistake to be drunk." Hunting Star said seriously.

"..." After all, it was the result of five years of hard work, and it was treated the same as Phoenix Gu. Bai Rui was a little cautious when Lie Xing said so.

"So, don't tell Papa Hei and Papa Guo."

"..." Xiaoxinsai disappeared in an instant, and Bai Rui smiled happily with Lie Xing in his arms.

After Jiao Kun explained that he was the envoy of Jiaotou City, he immediately changed his place to live.According to the people of Maocheng, the entire two streets of his new residence are called the embassy, ​​and all the people who live there are envoys from the big tribes, but this is the first time he has entertained envoys from another city.

In addition to their group, there are already two envoy teams from other tribes living here. One is a large tribe of the Mu tribe called Zuoya, and fortunately, it is a Mu tribe that has fought at least three times with Jiaotou City in the past two years. In the big tribe, Jiao Kun had just finished the third war with the opponent before departure.The other tribe is called Changshan. The Changshan people are tall and strong, and the beasts are giant tortoises. They are the solid allies of Yanyan City.

Originally, Jiao Kun revealed his identity just to get in touch with the rulers of Maocheng up close. After knowing the identities of the other two tribes, he was glad that he did so.Zuo Ya, who had a bad relationship with them, and Chang Shan, who had a good relationship with Yanyan City, Jiaotou didn't think it was a coincidence that they came to Maocheng at the same time.The behavior of the Maocheng people is also interesting. It is impossible for these people not to know the relationship between the three parties, but they put them together with the two groups of people so carelessly. Is this a friendly hint or a malicious demonstration?

"The patriarch." The other Jiaotou people were worried that Jiao Kun would be recognized, but Jiao Kun himself didn't care, so he moved into the house prepared for them by the embassy.

As expected, Chang Shan and Zuo Ya's team knew about Jiao Kun's arrival very quickly, but neither side did anything stupid to attack Jiao Kun.They have come to seek allies, not enemies.Even if Jiaokun can be killed, Jiaotou City is just a new patriarch.And Jiao Kun's death in Maocheng would make Jiaotou people and Maocheng people enmity, but when the time comes, Maocheng people will hate them more.Is it necessary to take away a corner and get another Maocheng?

That's not just looking for trouble.

Therefore, the people in Changshan and Zuoya acted as if the Jiaotou people did not exist, and they did what they should do.

This afternoon, the leader of Maocheng and the Dawu invited the three parties to attend a dinner together. Gather, or like today, invite outsiders to a feast.

Now there is no real systematic etiquette, only some scattered and primitive customs, but generally speaking, the more distinguished the guests invited to dinner, the closer they are to the head of the family.So after the three teams were brought into the seats, it was even more unclear what the Maocheng people were thinking, because the banquet was in a circle, and all the elders sat around this circle, and the three teams were also dispersed. around the circle.

At both ends of the circle, there is a specially decorated seat where there is no one else.One side is covered with the fur of the giant bear, and the other side is covered with the fine and shiny cloth that is a specialty of Maocheng.Obviously, one side is the position of the patriarch, and the other side is the position of the great witch.As for the three teams, the envoys from Chang Shan and Zuo Ya were closer to the black bear, and Jiao Kun with two followers was closer to the luminous cloth.

The envoys of the two tribes frowned, not very satisfied with Maocheng's arrangement.Because Maocheng obviously doesn't want to offend both sides, but neither side wants to get close.

Jiao Kun was quite satisfied, this distance just allowed him to observe the great witch up close.Of course, he was also dissatisfied. The people who poured wine at the banquet in Maocheng were men and women who were too old to be expelled, not delicate girls or teenagers. Is this intentional, or is it the custom of Maocheng?

"Wow~~" A wolf-like howl sounded, and four war beasts, much taller and bigger than wild wolves, ran in, rushed to the two empty seats, and then lay on the left and right sides of the seats.

All the elders of Maocheng stood up in unison after the four war beasts were seated. The envoys of the three teams were stunned for a moment, and then stood up as well.

Rhythmic drums and strange rustling sounds—shakers, made of small white mud fruits filled with sand, and then glued with wooden sticks.

Stepping on the accompaniment, the patriarch and priest of Maocheng walked in.

The two were not side by side. The young leader in the lead had his hair cut very short, and only an ordinary cloth was wrapped around his waist. His muscular and smooth upper body was exposed, and a simple animal tooth necklace was hung around his neck. He saw that It looks like an ordinary young man with good looks.

Jiao Kun's eyes flickered for a moment, and he noticed the young leader's foot, the part of his left foot under the half of the calf, which was... wood?Is this a man born with a wooden foot, or...

Before Jiao Kun could continue to think, another young man appeared, making his mind go blank for an instant.
