Chapter 542 Fire Snake (Part 1)
——It’s so embarrassing... What should I talk to Lui about...
This was the first time Moka was alone with Lui.
And it was this kind of solitude where the surroundings were completely silent and it was just the two of them.
Moka didn't know what to talk to Lui about...
If the people sitting next to Moka were male acquaintances like Lu Ge and Tru, Moka would not worry about this problem.
Because facing their group of male acquaintances, Moka would never be short of topics to chat with.
But - facing Louie.
Faced with Lu Yi, who has always admired her.
Faced with Lui, who had hardly communicated with him.
Moka didn't know what to talk to Lui at this time.
Just as Moka was racking his brains, thinking of a suitable topic for the two of them to chat about, Lui took the lead and said:
"Moka, does your face still hurt?"
After saying that, Lui pointed at the corners of her left and right eyes.
"Well, it doesn't hurt much anymore."
The awkward atmosphere of silence was finally broken, and Moka responded quickly while feeling grateful and lucky.
Moka gently touched the totems tattooed under the corners of his left and right eyes, and then continued:
"When I first got the totem tattooed on my face, my face was very painful and swollen, but now it's been a few days and my face is no longer swollen and painful."
"That's good." Lu Yi smiled, "You know? In the past, to tattoo a totem on your face and become a real warrior, you had to risk your life. In the past, tattooing a totem on your face The technology is not yet mature, so when a totem is tattooed on a person’s face, they will always become infected and eventually die.”
"Fortunately, the technology is becoming more and more mature now, and the current wizards in our Helai tribe are highly skilled. It has been a long time since our Helai tribe has had the bad news of totem inflammation, infection, and subsequent death."
Looking at the totems tattooed under the corners of Moka's eyes, Lu Yi's eyes gradually showed a complicated look.
"Moka...you now have a totem on your face, you are now a real warrior..."
"Yeah! Yes!"
After hearing what Lu Yi said, excitement gradually appeared on Moka's face.
Moka clenched his right hand into a fist and then slowly raised it to his eyes.
"I am now a real warrior. I will repel every invading enemy! Protect every one of our tribesmen! Protect our Helai tribe!"
"Protect the Hellai tribe..."
Lu Yi held this sentence in her mouth and murmured it repeatedly.
After muttering it countless times,
Lu Yi showed a sad and bitter smile:
"My father has always said similar things to me before..."
As soon as Lu Yi finished speaking, Moka's expression froze.
Then, a hint of darkness gradually appeared on his face.
Moka also knew about Lui's father.
Lui's father is a powerful warrior in the tribe - once was.
Two years ago, when Lui was 13 and Moka was 14, Lui's father died heroically in a battle with the Kolan tribe.
Lui's father died in battle. He died heroically and heroically.
Moka originally wanted to comfort Lui with the words "Your father died gloriously and was the pride of our Helai tribe."
But after seeing Lu Yi's face full of disappointment, Moka felt that the words were stuck in his throat and he couldn't say it out.
After an unknown amount of time passed, Lu Yi gently wiped the corners of her eyes and returned to her normal expression.
He murmured in a tone that sounded like he was asking Moka, but also like he was asking himself:
"Moka... Isn't there any way to restore peace to our Lake tribes... We are all Lake tribes, why are we killing each other like this?"
"Moka, do you know? I was actually very sad after learning that you were qualified to become a warrior and could tattoo a totem on your face."
"This means that you are very likely to be like my father, beating, beating, killing and killing, and finally being killed by someone you don't know at a certain time and place..."
"Is it true that we can't let the tribes maintain peace and stop fighting..."
After saying that, Lui's hands placed on her legs began to slowly tighten.
Stimulated by various emotions, Lu Yi's body began to tremble slightly.
After listening to Lu Yi's words quietly, Moka thought for a while and then said in a helpless tone:
"It's impossible for the tribes to maintain peace...it's impossible."
After saying that, Moka sighed softly, and then continued:
"If each tribe plans to survive or grow, they must need more hunting grounds and farmland."
"There is only so much suitable land for farming and hunting on Mount Bra."
"Our Helai tribe has occupied more cultivated land and hunting grounds, so other tribes will inevitably lose some cultivated land and hunting grounds."
"In other words, in order for your tribe to continue to survive and grow, there is no other way but to raise your knife and rob it from other tribes, right?"
"This kind of territorial issues can only be discussed with swords and bows. If everyone sits together and discusses territorial issues in a harmonious manner, the result will definitely be an unhappy breakup, because no one cares about territorial issues. Will give in."
"A few days ago, when I went to the foot of the mountain with Luge and Tru to trade with the Britannia people, Luge told me a lot about things outside Mount Bra."
"Besides the Britons, there are also Hiramites, Rollins, and Franks outside Mount Bra."
"I heard from Lu Ge that these people outside the Bulla Mountain are also fighting endlessly like the tribes of our Lake people."
"Although I don't know much about things outside Mount Bra, I think the reasons why these people outside the mountain are fighting should be the same as us."
"There are only so many cultivated lands and hunting grounds. In order to survive and grow, we have no choice but to pick up swords and bows and fight with strangers and people who have no grievances or enmities."
After saying this in silence, Moka turned back and looked at Lui beside him.
But he found that Lu Yi was looking at Moka with a somewhat surprised look.
Moka, who was a little uncomfortable with Lu Yi's gaze, asked Lu Yi:
"Lu, Lui? What's wrong? Why are you looking at me with such eyes..."
"Ah, it's nothing, I'm just a little surprised... I always thought that Moka was a person with outstanding martial arts and a little bit of intelligence, but it wasn't until now that I discovered that you, Moka, are also a very good talker. A wise man with profound principles.”
"It doesn't count as profound principles or anything like that." Moka scratched his head in embarrassment, "I just elaborated on my long-standing thinking about 'peace' and 'struggle'."
"It's very profound! I only understood half of what you just said... Huh? Moka! Look!"
Lu Yi pointed forward with some excitement.
Moka looked in the direction pointed by Lui's finger.
I found that in the distance, there was a beautiful "fire snake" moving meanderingly.
"Wow!"
Moka exclaimed.
"What is that?! So beautiful! So spectacular!"
"Yes!" Lu Yi nodded excitedly at this time, "It is indeed very spectacular, like a long snake whose whole body is covered with fire!"
"What on earth is that thing?" Moka murmured, "It's unlikely to be some kind of animal, right? If it's an animal, its size is too astonishing..."
"Moka, don't you know what this is?"
"Well, I don't know." Moka shook his head, "This is the first time I have seen this kind of 'fire snake', but it shouldn't be an animal, it should be something man-made. Maybe it's a Britannia. Something you made.”
"Huh? Why do you think this 'Fire Snake' was created by Britannias?"
"Because this 'fire snake' is located at the foot of Mount Bra. As I just said, this is an excellent viewing platform. Sitting here, you can even see the foot of Mount Bra, and this 'fire snake' Snake' happens to be located at the foot of Mount Bra."
After Chao Luyi gave a brief explanation, Moka turned his gaze back and looked at the "fire snake" at the foot of Mount Bra. He frowned slightly and murmured:
"What on earth is this... It would be great if Lu Ge was here. He is so smart, he should be able to guess what this is..."
"Well... forget it, since you can't guess what this 'Fire Snake' is, then don't think about it anymore. The two of us should just quietly admire this 'Fire Snake'. After all - this 'Fire Snake' is very beautiful."
"..." Moka's brows gradually relaxed, "That's right."
As Lui said just now, in such a dark night, the "fire snake" dividing the black earth into two is indeed very beautiful.
After thinking about it, Moka couldn't figure out what this "fire snake" was, so he decided to give up thinking and quietly accompany Lui to admire this gorgeous "fire snake" that divided the dark earth into two. .
"Moka, you just said that Lu Ge told you a lot about things outside of Mount Bra in the past few days, right?"
"Huh? Yes."
"Can you tell me about it? Things outside Mount Bra. I happen to be somewhat interested in things outside Mount Bra."
"Huh? What happened with Brashan..." Moka scratched his head, "I have forgotten many details..."
"It doesn't matter, just talk about it as much as you remember. Anyway, it's free time, let's chat together."
"Oh well."
