Chapter 626 Totem (Part 1)
The heavy rain continued to fall.
The sky and earth were filled with endless gurgling sounds.
The falling rain and the water drops from the treetops combined into a floating and slight sound.
All I could see was the misty rain.
All I could see was the dark sky.
All I could see was the cold water vapor.
Lu Ge walked slowly towards the Pingman Army camp at the foot of the mountain in the pouring rain.
At this moment, a familiar male voice sounded from behind him:
"Lu Ge!"
After hearing this familiar male voice, Lu Ge turned his head.
I saw a young man in a raincoat made of straw, holding something and walking towards him quickly.
"Moka..." Lu Ge murmured the name of the young man who was walking towards him quickly.
This person was Lu Ge's good friend - Lu Ge.
"Lu Ge." After walking quickly to Lu Ge's back, Moka stuffed the thing in his hand into Lu Ge's arms, "It's raining heavily now, take this." Lu Ge looked at the thing in his arms. It was a raincoat. "Moka..." Lu Ge raised his eyes from the raincoat in his arms, looked directly at Moka in front of him, and smiled bitterly, "Under the current situation, giving a raincoat to a Britannian like me, aren't you afraid of being criticized?" "If I was afraid, I wouldn't come to give you a raincoat. And-Lu Ge, you are not a Britannian, right?" Moka said to Lu Ge seriously: "I'm not smart, so I don't know whether it is good or bad to surrender to the Britannians." "But I know that Lu Ge is a person who loves the Helai tribe more than anyone else." "I believe that Lu Ge, you are definitely not a person who will choose to surrender to the Britannians for personal selfishness." "I believe that Lu Ge, you will never intend to harm our Helai tribe." Hualala... The rain continued to fall. Lu Ge slowly hugged the raincoat in his arms.
"... Thank you." Lu Ge showed Mo Ka a happy and relieved smile, "Really... Thank you very much..."
After that, Lu Ge unfolded the raincoat in his arms, put it on himself, turned around, and continued to walk towards the foot of the mountain.
Looking at Lu Ge's lonely back that was gradually going away, Mo Ka wanted to say something more.
But all kinds of words came to his throat, but Mo Ka just couldn't say them out.
……
Tick...Tick...
The rain finally stopped.
The raindrops hanging on the treetops slid down from time to time, dripping into the mud or puddles below, making a crisp sound.
The dark clouds in the sky broke into several pieces.
Wandering in the clear sky in the east and west.
The long-lost sunshine came out from behind the clouds, giving each dark cloud and the newly emerging white cloud a circle of gold.
Mo Ka, who had just returned to the tribe, slowly took off his raincoat.
After taking off his raincoat, the conversation of two women not far from Moka suddenly reached Moka's ears:
"What should we do... Now every household is running out of salt..."
"Even if we use it sparingly, the remaining salt will probably only be enough for us for another 7 days..."
"Alas... What should we do..."
...
Looking at the two women who seemed to be about to cry, the loss on Moka's face became more intense.
Since the Britannians issued a declaration of war to them, they have blocked Mount Brah and the trading point at the foot of the mountain.
The trading point at the foot of the mountain is very important to them, the Lake people.
They, the Lake people, do not have the technology to make salt. Salt and other things have always been exchanged from the trading point opened by merchants from the Britannian Empire at the foot of the mountain.
In addition to salt, ironware and some other daily necessities are also exchanged from the trading point at the foot of the mountain.
The Britannians blocked Mount Bula and the trade points at the foot of the mountain, which was equivalent to cutting off the only salt supply channel for the Lake people.
The Britannians blocked their only salt supply channel. Even if they did not send troops to attack the mountain, they would besiege Mount Bula for a period of time, and the Lake people would collapse without attacking.
Even children who are only a few years old know how important salt is.
If they don’t have salt to eat, it won’t be long before they don’t even have the strength to stand up.
From the conversation between the two women, it is not difficult to hear that the salt of their Helai tribe is running out.
- What should we do...?
Moka dragged the raincoat in his hand and walked towards his home in a daze.
Just as Moka was about to reach his home, a loud quarrel suddenly attracted his attention.
Moka looked in the direction of the sound and found that it was three young warriors who were surrounding a young woman and arguing loudly about something.
Judging from their postures, it seemed that the three young warriors were scolding the poor girl.
When he looked closely and found out who the poor girl was, Moka couldn't help but exclaimed:
"Is that... Lu Yi?"
The young girl being scolded by the three young warriors was Lu Yi, the object of Moka's admiration, who had received help from Lu Ge in the previous sowing festival and finally had a slightly warmer relationship with her.
Although he didn't understand what was going on, the girl he liked was being scolded, and Moka couldn't pretend not to see it anyway.
Moka threw away the raincoat in his hand, walked quickly, and shouted:
"Hey! What are you doing!"
Moka's shout successfully attracted the attention of the three soldiers and Lu Yi.
The four of them turned their heads together.
After getting closer, Moka noticed that Lu Yi's eyes were full of water vapor.
Seeing Lu Yi's tears, Moka's anger became even greater.
After walking quickly between Lu Yi and the three soldiers, Moka shouted at the three soldiers:
"What are you doing! Three grown men bullying a girl, do you have the nerve?!"
As soon as Moka finished speaking, One of the warriors shouted at Moka:
"That's because Louise said something she shouldn't have said!"
"When the three of us were discussing how to kill more Britannias, Louise, who heard our conversation, suddenly ran over."
"Tell us: Let's choose to surrender! Stop resisting in vain!"
"Now we are facing a powerful enemy. At this important moment, we should work together! All the tribes, regardless of gender, age or status, should work together to defeat the Britannias!"
"And Louise actually said such a thing!"
"Moka, you say! Louise actually said this! Should you be scolded for such a statement? ! "
As soon as the three warriors finished speaking, Lui shouted in a tearful tone:
"Am I wrong? ! If you want to die! Just die by yourself! Why do you want to drag us who don't want to die to die? ! Do you know how many people in the tribe still want to continue living? ! Do you know how much we want to surrender and how much we don't want to be buried with you brain-burned warriors? ! "
