Origin

Seeing Jiang Baili retreating, Wu Zhongyuan did not fire his bow again. The giant eagle transformed by Jiang Baili had already flown high and could not shoot.

Wu Qin did not catch up in the air. When his manpower was limited, he could persist until now only because the Ox Dragon Mace provided him with a steady stream of spiritual energy. In fact, his physical strength had already been seriously exhausted. If he put down the Ox Dragon Mace at this time, he would probably Instantly collapsed.

When the Niu tribe retreated into the forest to the west, Wu Qin turned to look at Wu Zhongyuan who was standing aside.

Knowing that Wu Qin was looking at him, Wu Zhongyuan also turned to look at Wu Qin. Wu Qin's expression at this time was very complicated. There was relief after the war, and there was also incredible surprise, but more of it was regret and self-esteem for the catastrophe that his tribe had suffered. responsibility.

After looking directly at him for several seconds, Wu Qin sighed, turned around and walked eastward. When he passed by Wu Zhongyuan, he raised his hand and patted his shoulder, "Preside over the aftermath."

Wu Zhongyuan nodded, and when he saw Wu Qin sighing repeatedly while walking, he said to him, "Sir, you have tried your best."

This is a comforting word, but it is also a truth. As the person in charge of Daqiu, Wu Qin has done his best. In order to protect the thousands of people in Daqiu, he did not hesitate to hand over his mace. After Jiang Baili broke his promise and went back on his words, he defeated the powerful enemy with one against four. What he did was worthy of his best efforts.

But this sentence obviously had no consoling effect. Wu Qin didn't answer, or even nodded. He just sighed again and walked away in dismay.

It was not without reason that Wu Qin was depressed. The huge city was now in ruins, with broken walls and corpses strewn all over the ground. Looking around, there was no living person on the street.

After Wu Qin walked away, Wu Zhongyuan moved to the north. As soon as he took a step, he felt a pain like pins and needles in the soles of his feet. He lowered his head and looked down and realized that the soles of his shoes had long been worn out and there were many blood blisters on the soles of his feet.

At this time, there were no rubber soles or tendon soles. The soles were just a few layers of tanned cowhide, which were not resistant to wear and tear. The wear and tear was even worse after repeated use of popular techniques. In fact, the soles had already been worn out, but they were too nervous before. Didn't pay attention.

His residence had been burned down, and he had no shoes to replace, so he could only untie a pair from the corpse of the tribesman who died on the roadside, sit on the ground, and tie them up.

Just as he was putting on his shoes, an old woman came out from the ruins to the north, picked up the cloak that Jiang Baili had torn off and abandoned, held it in both hands, and walked over to present it to him.

Seeing the old woman's sad eyes and humble attitude, Wu Zhongyuan finally understood Wu Qin's mood at the moment. As a warrior of the Bear tribe, while enjoying the privileges of the nobility and the support of his tribe, he also shoulders the obligation to protect his tribe, no matter what the reason. , as long as the clan members are harmed,

It's their fault.

Wu Zhongyuan took the cloak and nodded to the old woman. The old woman bent over and walked back.

Wu Zhongyuan tied his shoelaces, stood up and put on his cloak. He stood up high and wanted to raise his voice to inform his tribe that the enemy had retreated, but after standing for a long time, he didn't know how to speak.

Finally, he had to bite the bullet and shouted loudly, "The enemy has been repulsed. Master Jushan has given orders to clean up and deal with the aftermath."

Shout once, pause for three seconds, and then shout again. Keep shouting until you are exhausted and out of breath, and then stop.

Hearing his shouts, the surviving tribesmen gradually came out of their hiding place. What made him slightly relieved was that there were more survivors than he expected. It was estimated that there were still seven to eight hundred people, mostly old, young, women and children. The war broke out. At that time, they all hid, and there were not many strong men left. Apart from Wu Qin and Wu Dalie, he was the only warrior left. The rest all died in the battle.

At this time, everyone was looking at him, waiting for him to give orders.

After thinking about it, Wu Zhongyuan issued a series of orders to sort out the corpses of his clan members and bury them, and send the corpses of the warriors to the morning meeting hall for parking. Build temporary shelters as soon as possible and collect rice and food supplies. Send someone to report to the city where you belong, asking them to send doctors to treat the injured, and at the same time, deliver rice and grain to meet the urgent need.

The horses in the stable were also burned to death, and only the white-nosed horse that was used for running and racing survived. It had been despised before, but now it came in handy. People who were good at riding were sent to ride on it and ask for help in various cities. .

After giving the orders, Wu Zhongyuan went to Wu Qin's residence and informed Wu Qin of the current situation in the city and how he made arrangements.

After Wu Qin closed his eyes and listened to Wu Zhongyuan's report, he nodded and said, "Inform the capital of the changes in Daqiu."

"There are no more faith birds flying to the capital," Wu Zhongyuan said, "but I released one last night. If they see the faith birds, the reinforcements they sent should be arriving soon."

Wu Qin opened his eyes when he heard the sound, and glanced at Wu Zhongyuan with a frown. It was obvious that he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything. He just raised his hand and said, "Da Lie was seriously injured and has collapsed and passed out. I have to thank you for your hard work."

Wu Zhongyuan replied and said goodbye and left.

At this time, Daqiu can only be described as devastated and shrouded in sorrow. The battle last night caused almost devastating damage to Daqiu. Most of the houses in the city were burned down, including warehouses and granaries, and even the sheds where livestock were kept. Not spared either.

Before bringing A Luo back, Wu Zhongyuan ordered people to bury her grandmother's body. He didn't want A Luo to see the horrific body burned by the fire, just like he didn't want to enter A Tong's room last night. , whether it is the sights seen, the sounds heard, or things that happened, they will leave their mark in people's memory. Negative things can be avoided as much as possible, and try not to look at them as much as possible. It will have a good effect at all. No.

A Luo was still at the same place and saw Wu Zhongyuan coming from a distance. Before he could get closer, he came over from a distance.

Wu Zhongyuan squeezed out a smile at him, then turned around and left first, followed by A Luo.

He didn't hold Aluo's hand because she was still young. Ever since he found out that Aluo was a girl, he began to deliberately avoid suspicion. There are differences between men and women. Not to mention that the relationship between the two is just master and servant. Even if they are biological parents, they must also be with each other. Children of the opposite sex over ten years old should maintain the necessary distance and distance.

When he was still a few hundred meters away from the city, Wu Zhongyuan discovered that someone was coming from the east. Because the distance was still far away, he could not see the appearance of the visitor, but it was not difficult to tell from the way and speed of their movement that these people were all able to A master of purple energy flying through the sky.

When the other party approached, Wu Zhongyuan took another closer look. There was no doubt that these people were masters of purple energy. There were five of them. One of them did not perform a flying flight, but sat on the back of a huge bird.

Seeing the people coming, Wu Zhongyuan smiled bitterly to himself. These people reminded him of the police in Hong Kong and Taiwan movies, who only came after beating them. With hindsight, it was useless to come at this time.

The visitor saw the tragic scene in the city, rushed there quickly, and landed near the morning meeting hall.

Wu Zhongyuan did not take A Luo back to his original residence, but took him to A Tong's former residence. This house was made of stone and had not been burned down. It was not easy to have a place to live at this time, and he did not care about anything. It's auspicious and unlucky.

The corpses in the house had been moved away before. Wu Zhongyuan settled A Luo, left the stone house, and worked with his tribe to clean up the ruins of the fire scene.

Warriors don't have to do these things. His actions are suspected of being a show, but there is no such thing as a show at this time, and there is no concept of show in the minds of the tribe. They just feel that he should not do such dirty and tiring things.

In fact, Wu Zhongyuan didn't really want to do it. He was tired and sleepy now, and he wished he could lie in bed and sleep for three days and three nights. The reason why he insisted on doing it was to take the opportunity to get his face dirty. The five people who came here Among them is a sixty-year-old Dongyuan warrior. This man probably recognizes his father. To be safe, try not to let the other party see his true appearance.

In fact, his move was completely unnecessary. If there was a mirror, he would find that he had lost his appearance long ago. In order to rescue Arlo, his face was blackened by the fire.

Not long after, Wu Qin's eldest daughter came over from a distance and said, "Zhongyuan, father is calling you."

Wu Zhongyuan still didn't know her name, so when he heard her call, he put down what he was doing and went east with her.

There were no delicate women at this time. This woman was reserved, but still praised his bravery without concealing it. Wu Zhongyuan responded awkwardly. Other men were eager to be favored by beautiful women, but he was afraid that the other party would like him. .

Wu Zhongyuan's embarrassment and unnaturalness were misunderstood by the other party as embarrassment, "Has father told you?"

"Ah? Well, who are those people here?" Wu Zhongyuan hurriedly changed the subject.

"Think of them as wizards and warriors from the capital." The other party replied.

"Oh, oh, what are they looking for me for?" Wu Zhongyuan asked again.

"not sure."

"Go quickly, don't keep them waiting." Wu Zhongyuan found an excuse not to talk to the other party anymore.

Wu Qin's residence was very close to the morning meeting hall. At this time, everyone was at Wu Qin's house. The huge bird landed on the east square. It was a giant bird that has long been extinct in modern times, with white feathers and a red head. , looks like a crane but is not, it should be an ibis.

After Wu Zhongyuan was brought into the courtyard, Wu Qin's eldest daughter went elsewhere. At this time, the door of the main hall was open, and he could see the scene inside. Wu Qin did not sit down, but sat on the left and right sides. There were five people sitting, and the leader was a male wizard about forty years old. He was tall and thin. The wizard's clothing was somewhat similar to that of a warrior, except that there were cloud patterns and bear head embroidery on the back.

The wizard's cloak is purple, indicating that he is a Dongyuan practitioner. Below him is a short old man in his sixties, who is also a Purple Qi practitioner.

The subordinate of this person is a tall and strong man in his mid-thirties, with lilac cultivation.

The next one is a young female warrior, whose cultivation level is also that of Li Zi Ju Shan.

The lowest male warrior is about forty-five or six years old. He has an unremarkable appearance and is also wearing a lavender cloak behind him.

Before entering the room, Wu Zhongyuan noticed that the atmosphere was strange. Everyone, including Wu Qin, had very serious expressions.

When Wu Zhongyuan entered, Wu Qin introduced everyone to him, "Wu Rong in the cave, Wu Tong in the cave, Wu Songshi in the mountain, Wu Fenghua in the mountain, Wu Zhou in the mountain."

At this time, spiritual energy cultivation was the official rank of a warrior. Wu Qin introduced them one by one, and Wu Zhongyuan greeted them one by one. The gesture of greeting them was very similar to the clasping of fists by later generations of warriors.

Wu Zhongyuan's greeting did not receive a return gift from everyone. Only Wu Rong, the wizard at the head, and Wu Zhou, the last one, nodded. The three in the middle sat still.

"Wu Zhongyuan." Wu Qin finally reported Wu Zhongyuan's name, then pointed to Wu Zhongyuan's seat and motioned for him to sit down.

Wu Zhongyuan thanked him but did not sit down. The seat next to Wu Qin was a wooden chair with a backrest. He was not of high rank, so it was not polite to sit down.

After a brief silence, Wu Rong took out a strip of cloth from his sleeve and asked in a deep voice, "Did you draw the three crosses on this strip of cloth..."
