241. The tribe of the Lanya
The shuttle accelerates into the path.
"Your tribe is hidden in an illusion?" Nine Heavens was surprised.
"Yes, some people take turns to maintain illusions every day to prevent outsiders from invading the tribe. Without the Lanya to lead the way, they will be lost and then come back out in the other direction, never able to find our tribe. Gillan explained.
Following this path, a continuous village appeared in front of Jiutian's eyes.
With a bright smile on her face, Gillan turned her head and said, "Welcome to the Lanya tribe forgotten by time, this is my home. ”
When he was still a kilometer away from the village, Gillan stopped the shuttle and said, "I'm sorry, we can't have such a large modern tool in the village, we have to walk over." ”
"No problem. Jiutian looked at the village full of different customs in the distance, and the curiosity in his heart was simply strong. Especially after getting close to the tribe, he looked around, full of novelty.
The whole village is surrounded by a wall, which is not stone, but the leaves of some kind of plant, which is very wide. Jiutian stretched out his hand and touched it, and found that it was unusually hard, no less than a rock.
"It's a large stone algae, which is as hard as steel when dried, and is used to make walls and houses. Gillan explained.
The Lanya people do not rely on modern tools, and many times live on the surrounding environment, and have their own set of survival methods, which is the wisdom accumulated over a long time.
As soon as they walked into the tribe, the two of them were stopped, they were two tall middle-aged Lanyans, also with purple pupils. However, Jiutian looked at them and did not have strange hallucinations. Previously on the shuttle, Gillan explained that not every Lanya will turn on this ability. Only the lucky ones who are chosen by the Kraken Master will have this ability.
The two middle-aged Lanya people wore short-sleeved slacks, which was not the tribal characteristic costume that Jiutian expected. This made him know that the Lanya people were not completely incommunicative to the outside world.
"Gillan, you know that the tribe doesn't welcome outsiders, but they still bring outsiders back. One of the Lanya people spoke.
"Outsiders are not allowed to enter the tribe. Send him away, or the clan elder will be held accountable and you will be punished." The other continued.
"Brother Rentotu, Brother Rentogu. The tribe needs a spirit planter. These two adults are the spirit planters that the clan elder asked me to find, so they must enter the tribe. Gillan explained.
"Since it is the order of the clan elder, then they can enter. But follow the rules. ”
Rentotu and Rentogu glanced at each other, then moved out of the way, allowing the two to enter.
"Are these two relatives? They both have the same surname, but they don't look the same. Jiutian asked as he walked.
"Of course not. Gillan smiled and explained, "The Lanya people have four surnames: Gil, Rento, Ulan, and Un. Among them, Jill and Rento represent men. Ulan and Unn represent women. The first name is the one that comes after the last name. Every newborn in the tribe is given a surname by the clan elder. Among them, the lucky ones who open the abilities of the Lanya people can be given the surnames Gil and Une. ”
"Jill and Unn have the meaning of the tribe, the meaning of the lucky one, the one chosen by God. ”
Nine days only then suddenly realized.
After entering the tribe, he saw a large stone algae house in nine days, and these houses were scattered here, glowing with blue and black color. There are about two or three hundred buildings, which means that the number of Lanya people is not very large.
"I'll take you to my house first, and then I'll go to see the clan elder first. I will only be able to take you there after I have permission to do so. Gillan said.
Along the way, many Lanya people looked at them curiously, and there were curiosity, indifference, and hostility in these eyes.
"Well, I'm back. "Gillan led Nine Heavens into a large stone algae house. A Lanya woman quickly came out of the back room.
"Alan!" the Lanya woman looked at Gillan in surprise and gave him a hug.
Gillan then introduced Jiutian: "This is my mother, Unna. In the language of the Lanya people, it means mother. ”
Later, he introduced Jiutian and Huabai to his mother.
"Welcome, sit, I'll prepare Diye for you. "Uena is very welcoming, and there is no other Lanya who are wary or hostile to outsiders.
"What is Diye?" asked Jiutian again. He found himself asking questions for about a year today.
"A drink made from small fish and algae. I don't quite know what to say about it, but that's what the tribe calls it. Diye is the equivalent of tea for entertaining guests, and I haven't drunk it for a long time. Gillan looked expectant, "My cooked Diye is a must in the tribe, but unfortunately I didn't learn the craft. ”
In about ten minutes or so, Unna came with a large steaming shell containing this clear liquid of pale cyan color. Jiutian guessed that this was the so-called Diye, and then she took out three smaller shells, and personally took out three bowls and put them in front of the three of them.
"Thank you. Jiutian hurriedly thanked him and took the shell. A faint fragrance emanated from the shell bowl. The aroma is a strange mixture of plants and fish. He took a sip, and the sweet taste exploded on his taste buds, and then there was a faint umami taste that lingered on the base of his tongue.
"Awesome!" This peculiar taste is something that Jiutian has never tasted, and it is very wonderful.
Hua Bai also drank it, but it was just an illusion, and it was directly transferred and eliminated by force the moment the liquid entered his throat. This was ordered nine days ago, if you really can't refuse to eat outside, then make a show, and the food in her mouth is broken down directly in her mouth with her strength.
Groot was also curious, but it was a creature that couldn't eat food normally, just like Blossom White. Nine days just put him in the plantation at a fixed time, and it will absorb the energy in the air on its own, which is the food of the little one.
The little guy doesn't have to pretend like Hua Bai, he didn't even look at the dried fish that Uena gave him, and squatted on Jiutian's shoulder very coldly, trying to pretend to be a comparison, but it looked more cute.
Gillan drank two bowls of Die, and then reluctantly put down the bowls.
"Alan, this is for the guests. I'll do it again for you. Unna smiled.
"Okay then, I'll go to the clan elder first, and you can help me entertain these two. This Nine Days Advisor is a big name in our department. Gillan nodded, and then went out the door.
Taking this opportunity, Nine Days began to ask Unna about the history of the Lanya people.
