Chapter 77 The Pretender
Chapter 77 The Pretender
The Tovela tribe is far bigger than Zhu Xun imagined, and unlike Maikabi, the rainforest orcs live in trees.
Scores of houses stand between the tree crowns and branches. At a glance, the number of houses is completely uncountable. The distance between each tree may be close or far, but there are connecting wooden bridges. In the center, the thickest tree grows. The trees are like the center of the entire Tovila, and many houses surround it in a spiral building until they reach the huge eaves at the top to prevent the rain. Some orcs shuttle among them, like ants at work, in an orderly manner.
Zhu Xun couldn't help admiring, the architectural structure of Tovila was more perfect than he imagined, because he couldn't see the redundant buildings at all, people came and went on the wooden bridge road, many of them were carrying things in their hands, I have to say , this is a very prosperous city.
The trees growing in this area of Tovila are very thick. The rainforest tribes that Zhu Xun saw before only camped on the flat ground. Because there are many insects and snakes, the houses are built with high cushions. The rainforest has a humid climate and it often rains. Keeping the house dry is also a must.
The reason why Tovila lived on the tree must have something to do with the terrain. Zhu Xun stepped on the soil wrapped in lush plants, and it didn't take much effort to feel wet. If it rained, there would definitely be water here.
9527: "Look, on the way we just walked, the nearby trees are covered with thick moss."
Zhu Xun carefully observed the moss-covered trees. Most of the dark green moss remained in the same position. He gestured a few times at the waist of the tree, and the position where the moss stopped growing was right on his neck.
The moss was very fresh. Zhu Xun reached out to touch it, and quickly peeled off a piece. It seemed that they had only grown recently.
Zhu Xun: "...We came at just the right time. If it had been earlier, before the water receded, I would have been hiding in the last tribe for several days."
9527: "No wonder the Tovira tribe is on the tree, that's why."
Zhu Xun nodded, the big crow couldn't hold back, and rolled on the ground. Soon, it was covered with mud and debris.
"...I can't wash it clean, don't sleep in the same house with me tonight." Zhu Xun issued a powerful threat.
"Wow."
The big crow was very disappointed. At this moment, a fist-sized bug ran past it. The big crow grinned, showing its sharp teeth, which frightened the poor bug a lot.
"How can I find Xiu?"
This is a big problem. Zhu Xun's black-haired and black-eyed appearance determines that he cannot gain anyone's trust, unless he can enter Tovela with another identity...
another identity.
Zhu Xun rubbed his head and felt that he seemed to be enlightened.
At noon, on the wooden bridge road in the lower part of Tovila, a female covered with leaves appeared on her body. On her head was a green leaf, which was connected with the leaf cloak on her body, covering her whole body tightly. So, he was accompanied by a dirty domestic animal, which looked very pitiful.
A well-meaning person took the initiative to ask, wanting to help this embarrassed female, but unexpectedly heard a tragic story.
"I... was kicked out." The unknown female said.
"Oh, my God!" Someone exclaimed, "How could they do this to you? Which savage tribe is it? How dare they drive out the females!"
"..." The green female on her head paused for a moment, then replied in a low voice, "I don't want to say."
"You should tell us so we can go to them to settle..."
This person's words were interrupted, and the other person glared at him, and comforted the female softly.
"If you don't want to say it, you don't need to say it. Tovila is the largest tribe in the rainforest. If you are here, you will definitely have a better life than before."
"Well, thank you." The female stretched out her white arm, which was full of scratches and looked very painful. Several people onlookers showed pity expressions. It is too cruel not to take good care of such a good skin. Just know how much this poor female has suffered.
"You don't have a house now, are you going to live with me?" One person said directly, and to show sincerity, he even said his name, "My name is Erta, and I live in a house near Lavya. Although I have a spouse, but I can free up the house left for the children for you to live in."
When they heard about Erta's residence, several other people were very envious. The unknown female seemed to have not expected Erta to be so enthusiastic, and said helplessly.
"No, no, it's not good..."
"What's wrong, you have been living in the rainforest these days, you must be exhausted." Erta took his hand, he felt sorry for this poor and weak female, "I will report to the chief and ask you to join We, my spouse is the vice-captain of the guard, you will definitely come."
"I..." The female raised her head slightly, seemingly about to say something, but Erta didn't pay attention, because his attention was completely attracted by the small chin under the hat of this female from another tribe.
"You look so good-looking, why did those people drive you out?" Erta was very confused. He was about to pick off the female's hat, but he firmly blocked it.
The female's strength was so strong that Erta couldn't move a little bit. Both of them were a little surprised. The female reacted and immediately gave Kelta's hand, covering her head tightly. His reaction was quick, which was embarrassing. The scene lasted less than five seconds.
"No, don't look!" The female shouted in panic, her voice full of panic, "I'm ugly! I'll scare you!"
"Ah?" Erta was stunned for a moment. He obviously thought that this female was very good-looking, and could be compared with the family flower praised by everyone in Tovela.
"I'm really ugly, please don't look at me!" The female suddenly pulled back, refusing everyone to approach, Erta didn't want him to just walk away, and hurriedly said back.
"You are not ugly at all, they are too blind!"
This female couldn't listen to everyone's words anymore, she picked up the dirty domestic animal beside her, and ran away without looking back.
"Wait, don't go!" Erta just watched him disappear, and he didn't think of anything after waiting for a long time.
"Did that female...do something?"
"He picked up the domestic animal."
Erta suddenly realized, saying that the domestic beast had reached their thighs, how did this female hug her...
Zhu Xun, who had successfully sneaked into Tovela, was panicked. Erta almost took off his hat. If he was discovered, he would never want to come in.
Zhu Xun is surrounded by wooden bridges and roads. If you look closely, this tribe has divided residential areas and public activity areas. There are many places where you can rest. Zhu Xun looked left and right. This outfit attracted many people's attention. I was a little worried, and almost fell off the bridge, but was helped by a passerby.
9527: "Go up, there are few people up there."
Zhu Xun: "I'm about to close myself QWQ"
He didn't know how many floors he walked until there were fewer and fewer people on the wooden bridge road, and he finally found a place where there was no one. There was a long log like a bench, with dense branches and leaves behind it, and further up was the rainproof roof. covered.
"Finally able to rest..."
Zhu Xun collapsed on the wood, panting for a rest, the big crow did not lie down, it looked at Zhu Xun's hat with its head tilted to the side, and wagged its tail from time to time.
"Get your head off Dad's cuckold." Zhu Xun said weakly.
"Woo hoo." Da Wu jumped up and down on the ground, then went to the guardrail to look at the scenery.
9527: "If you want to pass it, it would be nice if you can come in with some green on your head."
"But when will this green hat be worn?" Zhu Xun tugged at the green leaves on his head, not to mention how wronged he was.
As if to confirm Zhu Xun's grievance, Da Wu whined a few more times.
Since leaving Maikabi, Dawu seems to have regained a new life. It is no longer the cute little one who can only stay by Zhu Xun's side to show off. It has the natural wildness of a beast, such as the fangs that make Zhu Xun feel a little weak He once saw the big black bite off a piece of wood as thick as an arm, as if he was grinding his teeth, and easily dismembered the wood.
Zhu Xun can't imagine how powerful the Dawu is, but it has no intention of attacking humans. It's all because of his influence... Zhu Xun sometimes feels that he is depriving Dawu of its nature as a monster. It shouldn't be like this, it's like giving food to wild cats living in the wild. If you give it a signal that 'humans have no intention of attacking', you are hurting it.
It can always encounter human beings who are not friendly to life. If it is unlucky, it may pay the price of life.
And the big crow is obviously not a domesticated animal. It is born to hunt, moves swiftly, and has keen observation skills, just like the orcs in the tribe. Small, naughty, but very cute in Zhu Xun's eyes.
"Big crow, don't bite the things here." Zhu Xun seemed to have a third eye. On the other side, the big crow, which had already opened its mouth to hold the wood, moved its ears and obediently lay down on the ground.
Zhu Xun hugged the green leaves on his body, lay on the wood and looked at the sky, maybe because he was too tired, he fell asleep just looking at it.
When he woke up, it was already dark, Zhu Xun was startled, and quickly sat up from the log, he exposed his head and looked out, only to see that the wooden bridge road was empty, and there was no one there.
9527: "No one comes here, you sleep safe."
"I'm worried to death. If I can't find Xiu tonight, I can only sleep here...Having a roof is better than having no roof."
As soon as Zhu Xun picked up Dawu, he started to walk down.
Because he was worried about being discovered, Zhu Xun was very careful. He had to watch behind obstacles for a long time almost every time he went down the floor. The lights of the residential area were cast on the wooden bridge road. It was not very difficult for him to walk, but the same, he passed by The figure of Wooden Bridge Road was also exposed.
Soon, Zhu Xun was targeted.
When he got down to the third floor, a black shadow suddenly struck and pounced on Zhu Xun fiercely. They rolled several times on the wooden bridge road, and Dawu was thrown to the side and accidentally fell to the next floor Gone, leaving only Zhu Xun and the stranger on him.
Zhu Xun didn't expect this person's movements to be so fast. He didn't even notice when the stranger was staring at him. When the two stopped rolling, Zhu Xun made the first move, but the attack was easily deflected. His hand was caught by the person on his body. Pressed on the ground, unable to move, soon, his other hand was also pressed to the ground.
There will inevitably be contact between movements. Zhu Xun can feel that this stranger has a strong physique, a very strong body, and his strength is a bit stronger than Li. Although he has not yet turned into a beast, Zhu Xun already understands the relationship between himself and him. There is a gap.
"..."
The stranger was wearing a cloak, making it difficult for people to see his face clearly. Zhu Xun was unwilling to be surrendered like this. He didn't come to play hide-and-seek with others after running for so long, so he shook his head. The green leaves were all scattered, and Zhu Xun's face was exposed to the air. Because of the humid climate of the rainforest, his skin was more delicate than before.
The black hair and black eyes are also more obvious.
"!"
The orc on Zhu Xun's body paused for a moment, and the strength restraining him became smaller. Zhu Xun was overjoyed, and drew his hand to prepare to run away.
"Zhu Xun?"
A deep voice came out, full of surprises.
"Ah? You know me?" Zhu Xun stopped running away, and opened his eyes wide to see the orcs pounced on him.
The orc didn't speak. He raised his body slightly, but didn't move his position. Zhu Xun felt a little uncomfortable under the pressure. He wanted to get him up, but suddenly, he couldn't say anything.
The orc didn't know when he pulled off his hat, and the silver hair was looming in the blurred light. It was very beautiful, but it wasn't the rare silver hair that attracted Zhu Xun's attention.
Those blood-colored eyes, as bright as rubies, were staring at him, and seeing Zhu Xun recognize his identity, there was a strong temperature like fire burning inside.
It was hot and intense, burning Zhu Xun's eyes deeply, his throat moved, and a long-lost throbbing came from the bottom of his heart.
