Ruins and blood.
This was the best answer that Li Ke could come up with. Fresh blood, burnt tents, and traces left behind by various swords. Coupled with this unfamiliar environment and the smell of blood in the air, there was no need to say what had happened here.
This was probably the stronghold of the Kaiwei Tribe or Carice's tribe. And from the looks of it, there was a massacre here.
"In order to avenge your death, Sejuani took your corpse and attacked the Kaiwei Tribe. But she didn't expect to hear you snoring when she was about to give you a grand burial and give a speech."
Oudir also came out of the tent and patted Li Ke's shoulder.
"You should've woken up at that time and see Sejuani's expression. After all, it was really interesting. I've only seen it a few times in my life."
Li Ke also thought that such a thing would be interesting. But if it happened to him, it would only make people feel that it was abnormally absurd.
"… How could I die so easily?"
He shook his head and looked at the ruins in front of him and sighed. A simple rag doll in the ruins attracted his attention.
"… This land has always been like this. War, hatred, and revenge. If we let them go, they won't be grateful. Instead, they will think of a way to take revenge. Even if only a child is left, he will work hard to avenge his tribe when he grows up. Because … the tribe is everything in Freldrod. "
Oudir sighed and picked up the doll from the ruins, then put it in the brazier and made a prayer gesture with his hands together.
"I can understand. Besides, this is' revenge 'for me."
This kind of hatred could not be offset in this kind of environment. Whether it was what Li Ke saw or what he saw during this period of time, he understood that Freldrod's society was still a very primitive one. The tribe was basically a family with the War Matriarch as the center. Every member of the tribe would respect and help each other in order to survive. Even if there were conflicts …
Well, they would still kill each other. But this kind of behavior would be despised. If it was spread out, not only would he not be able to stay in his own tribe, but he would also be hated and targeted by everyone who knew about this matter.
Therefore, under the influence of food shortage and poor living conditions, it was easy to imagine the outcome of the losing side would not be very good. They would either be expelled from their own place of residence or be completely wiped out.
This was the drawback of a primitive society, and the way to end this drawback was very simple.
Unify.
"Every battle must end with the destruction of the opponent's tribe and the slaughter of everyone. This kind of thing is actually not a good thing. You and I both know this. So I hope you can persuade Sejuani in the future so that she can think before she acts and not blindly think that strength to rule over everything. After all, sometimes the best way to reduce the number of enemies is to be tolerant and share the good wine in the cup. "
Udier said with a sigh and patted Li Ke's shoulder.
"And right now, only you have the right to persuade her."
Li Ke couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. He felt that Oudir's words were very strange.
"This seems to be the responsibility of a father, a husband, and a shaman. I am only a guest, so how can this responsibility be borne by me?"
No matter how he thought about it, this kind of thing couldn't be said by an outsider like him. Oudir's action of asking him to persuade Sejuani was really too strange.
However, Oudir's face also revealed a strange expression.
"What are you saying? Didn't you already promise Sejuani to be her blood alliance, as well as the sworn father of her child?! "
"Blood alliance is not a friend …"
Li Ke subconsciously refuted. However, just as he opened his mouth, Oudir's reaction gave him some subtle information.
"Blood alliance and sworn father mean husband?!"
He turned pale with fright. After all, he never would have thought that Sejuani was proposing to him at that time! And he even agreed!
"Blood alliance and sworn father mean husband! Don't tell me you didn't know the meaning behind it and you agreed! "
Oudir also turned pale with fright. He always thought that Li Ke knew the meaning behind it. That was why he said those words to Li Ke. After all, according to Sejuani's temper, only a powerful warrior who had made a blood alliance oath with her and had great achievements in battle had the right to influence her decision!
"I know, I didn't know just now. And this is really too ridiculous. Who would ask someone if they are willing to marry after only meeting once?! This is too ridiculous! "
He, Li Ke, yearned for a happy, safe, and healthy life. Although Sejuani was very beautiful and had a very good figure, he had only met her a few times. If he didn't feel anything, then he didn't feel anything. Even if he was like duckweed in this world, he absolutely couldn't casually decide on his other half!
"… This is also considered a traditional matter in Freldrod. But I didn't expect that she didn't know that you didn't understand the meaning behind it … But, but why did you agree?"
"I thought it was the intention of my foster father and ally. After all, you also know my state at that time. If I didn't get close to her …"
Li Ke only felt very embarrassed. After Oudir heard his answer, he helplessly took a deep breath and then let out a long sigh.
He knew Sejuani's temper too well. If she knew that Li Ke didn't understand the meaning behind it and agreed to it, she would definitely not mind this kind of thing. Instead, she would find an opportunity to take the initiative and leave a bond with Li Ke for one night, so that Li Ke would have no reason to leave.
But if Li Ke chose to leave, then it would be terrible. Sejuani didn't care whether you understood it or not. In her mind, there was only the principle that the strong should have everything. She also thought that if others didn't give her what they promised, then she would snatch it from them. So whether Li Ke was willing or not, he probably couldn't escape the fate of being forcibly dragged into the tent by Sejuani.
But was Li Ke the kind of person who would sit still and wait for death?
Thinking back to those arrows and broken spears taken from Li Ke's body, how could such a warrior surrender so easily? Perhaps if Sejuani used force, what she would get would only be Li Ke's sharp sword.
"Then, do you like Sejuani, or admire her?"
In desperation, Oudir, who was worried about Sejuani, asked Li Ke tentatively, although he also knew that this was unlikely.
"I respect her will and sense of responsibility to carry the whole clan at the age of a young girl, but I don't have the feelings of liking and appreciation. After all, not only did she hit me with that pig, but we didn't have much contact with each other. How could I have feelings of appreciation and liking? Besides, I'm just a traveler. I'll leave in a few days. How could I have the mind to think about that kind of thing? "
Of course, Li Ke told the truth. Being secretive and dragging on this kind of thing could only mean that he wanted to do something irresponsible. He disdained to do that at all.
After all, apart from the bonus of being a hero, although Sejuani was indeed beautiful, she was really just beautiful compared to those pampered girls on earth who could use PS Armor.
Although her figure and temperament were really good.
"This is troublesome …"
Oudir felt his head hurt even more.
