Jungle Throne

Gao Zhige's mind was muddled, like a ball of wool, he finally found the end of the thread, but after pulling it, the ball of wool became more and more tightly entangled and messy, and he didn't know where to start to untie it.

Meng Huo revealed too much information, and after she screened and displayed them one by one in her mind, it was already dark, and when she came to her senses, she had followed Meng Bei to a strange place, where there were other males and females, but no cubs.

All live together in one big cave.As soon as the two of them arrived at the entrance of the cave, everyone inside stopped to look at what they were doing, stood up at the same time, and looked over.

"This is my lion pride." Meng Bei turned around and introduced to Gao Zhige, "Welcome to join."

As she spoke, she gave Gao Zhige a gentle hug in public, then took a chain of animal teeth from a clansman and tied it around Gao Zhige's neck.

"This is one of the two sharpest fangs of the beast, and only my lions in Mengbei can wear it." Mengbei looked calm, but his tone was proud. "The other tusk is worn by Meng Lie's lion group. Other lion groups can only wear other teeth. You will know this later."

"I know you have a lot of questions now, but don't worry, you will know about these in the future."

"Although I can't send you back to Meng Luo, I will protect you until she finds you. I'm Meng Bei, what's your name?"

"...Gao Zhige." After finishing speaking, Gao Zhige raised his head and looked at the woman standing in front of him suspiciously.Because the other party mentioned Meng Luo just now, she subconsciously connected the two people together, and only then did she realize how similar they were.

"You are her..."

"We are half-sisters. We met before, and the situation was a little urgent. I was also injured. You should not know me."

"Hua, take Gao to eat something first." Meng Bei ordered, and then an ordinary-looking woman with a kind expression stood up.Mengbei then turned around and said to Gao Zhige: "This is a flower, you can find her if you need anything in the future."

"Go down and rest." She said to the two females.

Gao Zhige's eyes dazzled, and the other party just happened to look over, and smiled kindly at her.Gao Zhige didn't feel any malice from the other party, or from the eyes of everyone here, so she relaxed and let Hua pull her into the cave.

Gao Zhige was really exhausted physically and mentally.Before today, she was still a prisoner, and no matter what she did, she had to be watched by someone, and she was not free at all. As a result, since she met the orc who was suspected of being a priest of the lion tribe today, she was suddenly told by the other party that she was going to be the next priest.

The point is, she was still captured by the other party!From a prisoner to a priest of a tribe, this change is too great, no wonder Meng Shu went crazy when he found out.She didn't think there was anything at first, but after thinking about it later, she realized that the nature of being a priest of the wolf tribe and being a priest of the lion tribe was completely different, and there were more hidden things in it.

First of all, the lion tribe is not a tribe like the wolf tribe that has had no priests for hundreds of years.The wolf tribe is used to a life without priests, so the priests have little influence on their behavioral concepts.But the lion tribe is not. As a large tribe that has always existed with priests, priests have the same pivotal position as the head lion in their hearts.The head lion can be changed frequently, and the strong will let it go, but there can only be one priest.

"What? Are you still thinking about what happened today?"

When Gao Zhige first heard this sentence, she was startled. She looked at the flower who said this sentence in surprise, and the doubt in her eyes was undisguised.

"You... know?" she asked.After asking, Gao Zhige felt that his question was too general and vague, and hurriedly added: "No, I mean, you know...uh, it's just..."

However, she talked for a long time, her sentences were messy, and she didn't know whether she had expressed clearly that the person she wanted to ask knew why she was arrested, and then she asked herself to be a priest for no reason.In the end, Gao Zhige looked at Hua with some embarrassment, not knowing what to say to save her.

"Actually, I don't know your situation very well, but I can probably guess a little bit." Hua didn't care how messy what Gao just said, and then said everything she guessed and knew.

"As for why the priest brought you back, I don't know the reason. However, Mengbei probably knows a little bit. You can ask her tomorrow. As for the reason why the priest wants you to be the next priest, I think it is possible It is related to the current lion tribe."

"What happened to the lion tribe now?"

"If you want to say it, it is probably divided into two sides. Since the beast god lost contact, many people in the clan no longer fear the beast god, and no longer follow the will of the beast god. The newly appointed lion is a bad A self-centered orc who believes in the beast god. So he won't listen to the priest, but hates the priest instead."

"Several lion groups headed by the Menglie lion group obey the head lion, while our lion group is on the side of the priest, and the rest of the lion group is neutral. Decades ago, the priest discovered that the clouded leopard After the tribe took the initiative to move away, when they came back, they predicted that there would be a catastrophe here, and persuaded the lion tribe to move away too. But the lion didn't believe it, saying, "The grassland is the territory bestowed by the beast god to the lion tribe, just like the sky is the territory of the eagle. , The eagle will die without the sky, and the lion will not survive if it leaves the grassland', driving the priest away."

"In addition, nothing happened in the past few decades, so everyone didn't believe what the priest said, and felt that the beast god was gone, and the priest's prophecy was not accurate."

"Is there... really a beast god here?" Gao Zhige asked.

"There must be. The legend is that the beast god created us, and if the beast god does not exist, then the power of the beastman will be stronger after awakening. How can this be explained?" A male suddenly interjected.

After the other party finished speaking seriously, he introduced himself: "My name is Shan."

"What is the awakening of beastman?" Gao Zhige couldn't help asking.At this moment, she had too many questions to ask.

"Like Monroe, by offering living sacrifices, one's own strength is enhanced. We call it the awakening of orcs."

Meng Bei's voice came from above his head, Gao Zhige followed the reputation, and then saw her walk across and sat down.Immediately, people sat around the fire.

"Let me say it." Mengbei said, the fire light suddenly jumped, swayed her face, and then fell into the shadow again.

"The priest and the lion have always been at odds, and everyone knows it. The lion has been making trouble for the priest during this period of time. Everyone does not believe what the priest said about the coming catastrophe, so the priest is inevitably a little anxious, so I came to you and wanted you to be the next priest."

"...Do you want me to help him clean up the mess?"

"It's not...'A dead horse is a living horse doctor'—that's probably what the priest said." Meng Bei carefully recalled Meng Huo's explanation of the meaning of this sentence to her, "It means 'even if you know the horse It's about to die, but maybe it can survive with some medicine', maybe the priest doesn't want to give up any hope."

"..." Gao Zhige supported his forehead weakly, thinking that Tang Yuanshan, his master and senior, also came here and met Menghuo, so Menghuo would know this sentence and this... It is a reasonable explanation, um, not Strange.

"The Clouded Leopard Priest successfully moved the entire Clouded Leopard Tribe away from the snow mountain. The priest said that you are the descendant of the Clouded Leopard Priest, so you should also be able to move the entire Lion Tribe away from the grassland..."

"Wait! This logic is wrong!" Gao Zhige felt something was wrong after hearing half of it, and jumped up excitedly.Well, her mind was still spinning quickly, and she knew that this so-called cloud leopard priest should be Tang Yuanshan. They came from the same place, and they had been separated for so many years, so there was nothing wrong with thinking that she was his descendant.

but.

"Even if I come from the same place as him, it doesn't mean I can do it too!" Who knows what Senior Tang did back then, and no one told her to kill him?

"But having said that, you can move out if you want to, and stay if you don't want to. Do you have to wait for everyone's consent?"

"This is because, as I said before - 'the grassland is the territory bestowed by the beast god to the lion tribe, just like the sky is the territory of the eagle. The eagle will die without the sky, and the lion who leaves the grassland cannot survive'."

Meng Bei stared into Gao Zhige's eyes with a serious expression, and said, "This sentence was passed down from our ancestors. The ancestors of the lion tribe also tried to live in the forest, but they had to return to the grassland in the end."

Gao Zhige was silent.

The author has something to say: Uh... the amount of information in these chapters is a bit large. Meng Huo is one of the two who knew the truth and is still alive, and the other is Mu.Mu not only knows but has experienced it himself, so he is a hidden figure.Throw a ball of yarn first, and then untie it slowly.
