Chapter 262 Arrival at Kublai Khan's Tribe
"Khan, you don't know, recently a devil has appeared in our grassland..."
"Several tribes have been massacred!"
"From the 80-year-old man to the baby in swaddling clothes, all were killed. Not a single one was left alive!"
Those cavalrymen almost spoke with gnashing teeth.
Gulizhi and others who heard this were all in disbelief.
After listening to this, Zong Shen narrowed his eyes. Those so-called devils were probably the other climbers of the tower in hell.
"Is there such a thing?"
"What did Lord Tenger, the Khan of Heaven, say?"
Gu Lizhi asked with a stern expression.
This act of slaughtering an entire tribe is truly no different from the devil in the legend!
"The great Khan told us that the demons are heading here, targeting the Kublai Khan tribe and the Nadam Festival..."
The cavalrymen of Kublai Khan's tribe said worriedly.
Gu Lizhi nodded and turned to look at Zong Shen.
Thinking of Zong Shen’s strength, which was enough to massacre the Hazik tribe, he couldn’t help but feel a little scared.
Fortunately, this one looks very rational, obviously different from the crazy devil.
However, some resentment and suspicion inevitably arose in my heart.
"Okay, let's go in."
Gu Lizhi waved his hand.
He rode his horse and entered the territory of Kublai Khan's tribe first.
Sure enough, Kublai Khan's tribe has become more strict than ever before.
The sky was filled with prairie eagles circling in alert.
Each warrior held his scimitar tightly, his eyes sparkling, ready for battle!
The cavalrymen patrolled back and forth in turns to ensure that there were no blind spots within a radius of 100 miles!
Zong Shen even saw several strong men flying in the air with longbows on their backs.
These are probably the powerful men from the grassland who have sacrificed the Gate of Miracles and gained the ability to levitate.
However, no one knows what power the portal has that can give these grassland natives such strange abilities.
These abilities are nothing in the outside world.
But in the Gumeng Prairie which is suppressed by the rules of the Ascension Tower, it is considered an extremely remarkable ability.
After riding slowly along the way for about ten minutes, everyone officially entered the tribe.
Kublai Khan's tribe is indeed the largest tribe in the grassland.
This flow of people is far beyond what the Hazik tribe can compare to.
There were many grassland warriors coming and going.
Many of them are tall and strong grassland warriors, with strong bows on their backs and curved swords on their waists.
Obviously, they all came here to participate in the Nadam Festival.
Everyone came to a larger group of tents outside the tribe.
This is the tribe's equivalent of an inn.
Gulizhi took out a round crystal ball from his arms.
It was placed in the hands of a man who should be the shopkeeper.
"Arrange a large tent, provide wine and meat, and feed our horses with good fodder."
Gulizhi shouted.
The man who looked like a shopkeeper quickly put one hand on his chest and bowed slightly.
"Don't worry!"
Everyone handed the horses to the care of the inn's groom and followed Gulizhi into one of the large tents.
The tent was very large and had a huge round table.
It is no problem for thirty or forty people to sit around.
"Please take a seat, sir."
Although Gulizhi had some doubts about Zong Shen because of the murderous devil that suddenly appeared on the grassland.
But his words and actions are still respectful.
Don't talk nonsense about things that are based on hearsay.
Zong Shen nodded and sat down.
The little fat boy Dada sat next to him.
Gu Lizhi sat next to them.
Soon, jars of highland barley wine and fragrant roasted beef and mutton were served on the table.
The men on the grassland drink wine in big gulps and eat meat in large chunks.
When it comes to eating and drinking, he is extremely generous.
"Come on, come on, eat, eat!"
“Drink, drink!”
They traveled for six days and two nights, and no one had enough to eat or drink.
If you feel a little thirsty, drink some stream water.
Eat some dry food when you are hungry.
Concentrate on your journey.
As the saying goes, one should not meddle in matters that are not within one's jurisdiction.
The Hazik tribe was not attacked by the so-called devil, and they could not empathize with the same feelings as Gulizhi.
I was eating and drinking happily at this time.
Zong Shen also picked up the wine cup and drank slowly.
Gulizhi was silent.
He hesitated for a long while before speaking.
"gentlemen……"
"What do you think we should do if that devil comes to Kublai Khan's tribe and starts killing people?"
Upon hearing this, Zong Shen put down the wine cup in his hand.
He said it calmly and in a serious tone.
"If there really is a devil causing trouble, he should be killed!"
"Zong, I will never let them kill people under my nose."
Upon hearing this, Gu Lizhi nodded with relief.
"There is a great shaman, Tianhan Tenger, in charge here. If those demons act arrogantly, they will inevitably be killed."
He turned his head and looked in a certain direction inside the tent.
That corresponds to the center of the tribe.
Said with confidence.
Zong Shen disagreed and took another sip of wine.
The taste of highland barley wine is very dry and strong.
A mouthful of spiciness spread from the mouth to the internal organs.
After the remaining strength wore off, I just felt a refreshing feeling.
It is in line with the character of grassland men.
"Gu Lizhi, I want to go see the Gate of Miracles, is that okay?"
Zong Shen had no intention of eating or drinking.
It's nice to experience the customs and culture of the grassland here.
But he came here to climb the tower!
Hearing this request, Gulizhi was stunned for a moment.
Then he agreed readily.
"The Gate of Miracles is in the middle of the eight altars in the tribe. If you want to see it, you must get the consent of the Great Shaman."
"If you want to see it, let's go to the Tianhan camp now. I think Tianhan will agree."
Gulizhi put down the leg of lamb in his hand, stood up and spoke proactively, looking even more impatient than Zong Shen.
Zong Shen naturally wanted this very much.
He also stood up.
The little fat boy Dada stayed in the tent with the cavalrymen, drinking and eating meat.
Zong Shen and Gulizhi left the tent and walked towards the depths of the tribe.
The two walked for a while and came to a less crowded corridor when Gulizhi's cold voice came from the front.
"Sir, you don't look like a person from the grassland..."
"I think it comes from outside the grassland."
Zong Shen was not surprised by Gu Lizhi's words.
He admitted it very frankly.
"Indeed, I am not from the grassland, or rather, I come from another world."
Zong Shen had previously used soul tentacles to obtain Gulizhi's memories.
In fact, the khans and high-ranking officials in the tribes on the grassland still know something about the grassland world.
Among them, the ancestor god they worshipped once passed through the Gate of Miracles and still exists today, often able to transmit back some power and messages through the Gate of Miracles.
As a senior official in the grassland, knowing that there is a world outside, he naturally is unwilling to be a frog in a well.
Generations have tried to break through the door of miracles.
Unfortunately, none of them were successful!
