Chapter 95 Conflict on the Prairie
();
Two days later, a wagon convoy with goods moved on the grasslands. Next to the convoy are two rows of lion's mane riders.
There are about 100 people in the entire convoy, more than 60 combatants, and the rest are logistics personnel such as coachmen, hunters, witch doctors, and cooks.
The horses these lion mane orcs ride are large, about 2.4 meters high from the top to the soles of their feet, and are mostly brown and gray in color, with occasional white patterns. Although the fur is messy and the running speed is not very fast, the skeleton is tall and strong, with sufficient endurance and strength, and because of this, it can support the weight of the Lion's Mane Orc.
Lorraine leaned his head against the window of the carriage, looking at the scenery outside and the lion's mane riders.
"What breed are those horses, I haven't seen them before." She asked Niya across from him a little curiously.
Niya put down the booklet recording the goods in her hand, looked up and said: "Those are Mirhua heavy horses, with great physique and strength, but they also have a large appetite. One horse will eat 3-5 people's rations, only A few powerful tribes will raise it."
"This kind of horse farming should be quite good." Roland Hill is indeed a small farmer, and the first thing that comes to mind when he sees it is to use it for agriculture.
"This....but there are very few people farming on the grassland. Because of the lack of food, some people have tried it before, but the effect is not very good. Only a few places near the river have farming." Niya shook her head. The horns in the chestnut hair also swayed.
"What's the reason for this?" Lorraine tilted his head, wanting to know the specific reason.
"Because farming will make the land barren, coupled with the windy and cold grasslands, many crops are not growing well." Niya said with some regret.
"This way..." Roland Hill thought for a while, then put his hand into the plush glove and thought slowly.
Gufia is located in the north, and the autumn is particularly short, and the weather has become a bit cold recently.
On the way back, it was relatively peaceful, and nothing major happened. The lion mane clan is a big clan on the grassland, and its strength is strong. Although the cave lion clan is only one branch, its strength is still strong. Will not deliberately provoke.
On the road, you can still see some horse-riding teams rushing north. They are going to participate in the fire-picking festival. Many tribes are far away from the place where the fire festival is held, and they all set off a long time in advance. And the Fire Festival is approaching.
Because it was pulling the marinated meat and some other goods, the carriage was not moving very fast, and it took five or six days to arrive at Niya's tribe.
But after entering the Sheephorn Tribe's residence, Roland Hill clearly felt that the atmosphere was a little gloomy. After letting the orcs of the Lionmane tribe put down the goods, she rushed to the tent where Nia was.
"...That's the way it is, Nia." A slightly familiar voice came.
"Has Grandpa Ketan been injured?" Niya's voice was a little excited.
"Yes, but fortunately there is no danger to life." The voice said comfortingly.
"How could they..." The girl's voice was somewhat indignant and bitter.
Isn't this kind of thing very common? It's good. The other party just robbed some of the sheep and didn't kill anyone. Nia said to herself, but she was still a little uneasy and uncomfortable.
"Niya, don't get excited, sigh... I didn't want to tell you, you still have a bright future, and this matter is not big. After you graduate from Emenas, your strength will become stronger, and naturally No one will dare to bully us. Don't fight for the moment."
"This is not cowardice, but another kind of bravery and wisdom." This slightly thicker voice persuaded Niya.
Hearing this conversation, Lorraine slowly put down the hand that was about to open the curtain and went in. After the voice gradually settled down, he said hello and opened the curtain to enter.
In addition to Niya, there was a slightly older man in the tent. He had brown-black hair and a face that was somewhat similar to Niya.
"Hello, I'm Niya's classmate Lorraine." Lorraine Hill first saluted slightly and said hello.
"Hello, I'm Niya's uncle, her father's brother Kule." The uncle took off his hat in return, and then put it on again and continued.
"I heard from Niya that Miss Lorraine has helped her a lot in school. Thank you very much. We Sheephorn tribe have not received a distinguished guest for a long time. If there is a place where the reception is not well received, please try your best to ask and understand."
"Then I'll leave it alone." Then he slowly backed out.
This Uncle Keller is very good at talking. Most of the other people of the Sheephorn tribe just say thank you, well, you can do whatever you want. Sometimes they want to show warmth and hospitality, but Not knowing what to say, Loren was a little anxious about it, and naturally he wouldn't blame them.
"Lorraine is here too, I'm sorry, you should have heard what you said just now." Niya watched Lorraine approach, then took her hand.
"Where is that grandpa Ketan, take me there first."
"Yeah." Niya nodded and walked to a tent with Loren. Although she couldn't treat herself, Loren should have a way.
The gray tent was a little old, and the edges were broken. After the curtain was opened, there were already two people standing among them, an old shofar, standing beside the bed, holding mashed herbs in his hand, and was going to the wound. Next to Shang Fu was his assistant, helping to hold down the injured old man.
The old man on the bed had a gray beard and a thin body, and the outline of the bones could be clearly seen from the skin. He grunts occasionally, his arms are bandaged, and he has a long cut on his chest
.
Hearing someone coming in, he opened his eyes and looked. Seeing that it was Niya who came in, he wanted to say something, but the pain in his chest made him frown and didn't say anything.
"Grandpa Ketan, don't move yet." After Niya walked in, she first let the old man settle down, and then slowly checked the injury.
The injuries suffered by the old man from the Sheephorn tribe were basically skin injuries. Fortunately, the internal organs were not injured. However, it is true that if the internal organs were injured, he would probably be gone by now.
After the witch doctor applied the medicine and left the tent, Roland Hill stepped forward to investigate.
The situation is good, the old man's body is still healthy, Luo Lan thought for a moment, and then opened his hands, pure white magic power gradually emerged in the air, and then gathered in the middle of the two hands. Condensed into small water balls.
After that, the sparkling water polo atomized into small water droplets and fell on the wound of the old man, blending into it. Slowly, the old man's frown gradually loosened, and his breathing became gentle.
Niya was condolences and inquired about the cause of the matter again, only to know the specific process.
It turned out that there was another conflict between the wolf-eared clan near the Yangjiao clan before, and the two sides began to fight and attack each other.
Although the Sheephorn tribes have shrunk most of the flocks, they have to let some of the flocks eat on the nearby pastures due to the lack of forage. In this way, it was affected by the conflicting wolf-eared tribe.
Riders wielding long knives swept in and swept away the flock in a short time. After finding out that they were not the enemy, they did not stop immediately, but chased and robbed the flock.
The Yangjiao clan was relatively weak and did not resist, but fled quickly, but even so, several clansmen were injured,
But fortunately, the enemy didn't pay much attention to it. After driving and wounding some of the shofars, they stopped chasing and went back to enjoy the spoils.
After learning about what happened, Niya hesitated.
Revenge for this? But neither myself nor the tribe are strong enough, so ask Loren for help? No, the school has rules that students cannot participate in any conflict between organizations and countries. Doing so will make Lorraine expelled from school, and it's not a life-and-death matter.
But do nothing? I feel that my heart is suppressed and it is difficult to swallow. Blind patience will only make people think that you are easy to bully.
Just when she was hesitating, the door curtain was lifted and several elders from the clan walked in.
These three elders, one is the shaman in the clan, the other is the patriarch, and the other is an aged warrior of Sequence 4.
"I heard that Niya is back, let's see you and the injured Ketan," said the old patriarch.
"I know Nya and Lao Ketan are very familiar, but I hope you don't act impulsively."
