Chapter 896 895 The Connection Between Jueming and Undercurrent
Chapter 896 895. The connection between Jueming and Undercurrent
What Mo Cheng brought back from Wu Man was not only the head of the Great Witch Sacrifice, but also more than 600 prisoners.
After counting, a total of 756 shamans, old and young, women and children were captured, more than 300 mature barbarian women, more than 100 young female barbarians, and more than 200 barbarian cubs.
Among the witch barbarians, old men and women were the fewest, with a total number of less than a hundred. This may be because life in the Jueming Mountains was not easy, and witch barbarians usually did not live too old.
In addition, more than 3,000 cattle and sheep, more than 500 strong horses, and more than 100 mastiff dogs, which are special products of the Jueming Mountains, were seized.
This is undoubtedly a big gain.
These prisoners were found not far away after Mo Cheng broke through the camp, and there was almost no resistance when they were taken captive.
In other words, there was no resistance at all. After beheading a few old sorcerers who were disobedient and trying to escape, and threatening them fiercely, these prisoners actually started to become obedient.
With the help of these female barbarians, who were obviously nomadic people, the supplies of the entire Wuman tribe were quickly packed up, and the cattle and sheep started to march towards Bai Gucheng.
Along the way, Mo Cheng watched silently, not even needing to command himself, but he still didn't know much about the Wuman tribe.
"Brother Mo is saying that he doesn't understand why these female barbarians are so obedient?"
Tu Shancuo looked like a fox on the outside, but he performed well when charging and fighting. Even when he invaded the camp, Tu Shancuo acted as the commander and formed a formation of more than 800 people, using the terrain to easily resist He was strangled by Wu Man.
It can be said that in terms of command alone, Tu Shanzui can probably beat three of himself.
At the same time, Tu Shanzuo was also well-informed. He quickly answered Mo Cheng's question, "Female barbarians are regarded as property like cattle and sheep among the witch barbarians. The witch barbarians will also attack each other. If we attack the other tribe, we will kill all the adult men and leave the women behind."
"Female barbarians can be bought, sold or exchanged between different tribes at will. There is no status at all. Moreover, these female barbarians are not necessarily from the tribe we conquered. They may also be trophies snatched from other tribes. "
"The rules among witch barbarians are very simple. Whoever has a big fist or a sharp knife is the leader. Whoever grabs the cattle and sheep belongs to him, and the same goes for women and children."
"Now that their men have been defeated by us, they have also been snatched away by us. Naturally, they are... well, they are your trophies, Brother Mo."
In Mo Cheng's opinion, the way of existence of the Wuman tribe was very similar to that of the nomads. After taking a look at the thousands of cattle and sheep, he silently changed [very similar] to [exactly the same].
But he thought of a new question, "Is there grassland in the Jueming Mountains?"
"Yes." Tu Shan nodded solemnly, "Although the Jueming Mountain Range is a mountain range, it has swallowed up a lot of places over the years, including a grassland. However, the internal environment of the Jueming Mountain Range is difficult to speculate with common sense. It’s just a few words.”
After saying that, he also knew that Mo Cheng knew nothing about the Jueming Mountains, so Tu Shan continued to add: "These female barbarians were probably called to graze nearby. After the Wu barbarians gathered more than a thousand households in one place, Jueming The Hades Mountain Range can slowly devour that place. There are only a few hundred people here, they should have been sent here not long ago, and the follow-up has not yet arrived."
Then Tu Shancuo pointed to the loot this time and explained to Mo Cheng, "Barbarian oxen are powerful and can be used to pull carts. It is not yet known whether they can plow fields. They have not been captured in Bai Gucheng before. Wuman's strong horses can be used. Come and form a cavalry, which can carry a thousand pounds of strength, travel a thousand miles in a day, cross mountains and ridges as if they were walking on flat ground, and be valuable in the surrounding markets."
"Although the Jueming Mountains are poor mountains and harsh waters, the creatures that can thrive in them are much better than similar ones in the outside world. Even the barbarian sheep has plenty of blood and is a first-class tonic."
After Tu Shansuu finished speaking, he glanced at the female barbarians and said, "Moreover, the wealthy businessmen and dignitaries in the city are very fond of female barbarians. Cities in various countries and cities that have suffered from the Jueming Mountains are willing to train female barbarians to be close to their bodies." maid."
Tu Shancuo just mentioned it briefly and didn't continue. He was neither interested in this kind of thing nor wanted to mention it more. He just told Mo Cheng about such a thing.
Mo Cheng did not continue to ask questions along the way, but just looked at the female barbarians silently. At the same time, in a field of vision that others could not understand, Mo Cheng saw a dark aura emanating from those witch barbarians.
Like threads, there is an endless stream.
The dark aura seemed to have no entity, but Mo Cheng could detect that there was corrosiveness in those auras, and what was corrosive was the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
It feels like pouring concentrated sulfuric acid into clean water.
When others were not paying attention, Mo Cheng reached out and grabbed a dark aura in his hand. His brows furrowed as soon as the contact came into contact, because at the moment of contact, the [Siren Shell] actually activated spontaneously, and the aura of the deep sea attracted him. Washed it from beginning to end.
What made him frown was not the triggering of [Siren Shell], but...
"Why is the aura on these Wu Barbarians similar to [Undercurrent]?"
Are the Jueming Mountains and Undertide essentially the same?
This question is lingering in Mo Cheng's mind, but he can't find an answer. There are too few clues now, and a hasty conclusion will most likely not be the correct answer.
However, Mo Cheng looked at the dark auras on the female barbarians, and there was no way to let these auras pollute the aura of heaven and earth. With a thought, the [Arcane Halo] unfolded, and in an instant, the aura of heaven and earth around Mo Cheng chased the fairy cave.
The active spiritual energy of heaven and earth continuously washes away and crushes the dark atmosphere. With the blessing of [Arcane Halo], the active spiritual energy of heaven and earth makes the spiritual energy spontaneously repel the dark atmosphere and even destroy it.
Those dark auras were very resilient, but after a full half hour of spiritual energy strangulation, they had to completely dissipate between heaven and earth, leaving no trace.
The moment those dark auras disappeared, Mo Cheng felt as if something had been cut off, and at the same time, an angry roar came from his ears.
Something was expressing dissatisfaction with him.
Mo Cheng raised his head and looked at the sky, his eyes seeing a majestic mountain range through the barriers of space.
A smile appeared on his face, like a predator encountering its prey.
"It turns out that the so-called Jueming Mountains are alive."
On the other side, after Mo Cheng turned on the [Arcane Halo], Tu Shanzuo and the soldiers immediately discovered the abnormality in the aura of heaven and earth. ,
In their memories, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth has never been so active. They don't need to enter meditation to absorb it. The spiritual energy will spontaneously penetrate into their bodies, and their cultivation will be steadily improved with every step they take.
Tu Shan looked at Mo Cheng in surprise. He knew that the function of Mo Cheng's [Exotic Treasure] was to activate the spiritual energy of the surrounding world to the level of the fairy cave. But this was the first time for him to enter this kind of active spiritual energy. in the environment.
He immediately gave the order to the soldiers, "Continue on the road. The commander is trying to reward us for fighting hard. It is important to rush back to the city now. Don't stay here."
