Original War

Chapter 486

From the grassland to the more arid and barren land, where a thousand grains of gold were once found, Shao Xuan asked the people of the tribe to prepare something based on the knowledge that Jiju taught him to identify herbs in his memory.

Along the way, too many things, chasing down, various dangers in the mountains and forests, the wounded have consumed a lot of medicines, and the ones sent by the Taihe tribe have almost bottomed out, although they have also collected herbs in the middle, But I can’t bear to consume too much, and now there are not many medicines on hand. People who don’t have the power of awakening totem, as well as those elderly old people, even if they are often carried on their backs, they will inevitably become sick for a long time.

It’s been twenty days since I started from the tribe, and there is still a long way to go. I have to keep going. Naturally, I need to prepare more Medicinal herbs at this time.

The people of the Shao Xuanjiao tribe recognize the Medicinal herbs in this area, and if they encounter them, they will pick them up and prepare them.

Looking up at the sky, Shao Xuan found that a bird was flying high in the sky and couldn’t see what it looked like. It flew too high and flexible, and it was difficult to shoot it down even with an arrow.

“What’s the matter?” Zheng Luo came over and asked.

“That bird has appeared again.” Shao Xuan pointed to the shadow in the sky.

“Again?” Zheng Luo was wary. “It should be raised by someone, or follow our movements.”

“Chief, you said, why haven’t the people in the royal city show up yet?” Shao Xuan asked.

“You mean…that bird belongs to Wangcheng?!”

Zheng Luo was silent. He is not someone who doesn’t understand anything. He knows that once the people in the king city decide who to deal with, they will definitely take action. The ones they encountered before are just the first tentacles released by the people from the king city.

Since other people can track the movements of the Yanjiao tribe, the people in the royal city certainly don’t know anything, and they may be waiting for the best time if they haven’t shown up.

“Are they here too?” Zheng Luo asked. Although it was doubtful, Zheng Luo already had five points in his mind.

“The people in Wangcheng are not used to the mountains and forests. They haven’t taken any action until now. They are probably waiting for us to leave the forest and go to an open place.” Shao Xuan thought about the topography of the place that he passed when he first came over. Barren mountains will pass through more open places, with more people, and the roads are relatively flat. Only when you pass there will you enter the semi-desert area. The most likely place for people from the royal city to appear is the middle section of the road.”

Zhengluo’s heart sinks. Although they usually see the pretentious people in Wangcheng not pleasing to their eyes, they have to admit that they can lay down the current turf and develop to the current scale. The current six nobles, the six strongest in the past The strength of the tribe cannot be underestimated. Now that there are children, old people, and unawakened women in the team, they can’t let go of fighting, and they can’t give up these people. As for the solution, unless some people are left behind to block the chase team of the royal city, let the rest of the tribe continue on their way.

For those who go to the royal city, it is very likely that they will never be able to keep up with the team, not even cremation. However, sacrifice is inevitable for the tribe, and even Zheng Luo himself is prepared to stay.

“We have to arrange for some people to be behind the team.” Zhengluo looked at the undulating barren hills around and said, “I’ll go to discuss with Duokang.”

When the team was on the way, Zhengluo talked to the soldiers according to the situation of each family. In some families, the kind that was supported by one person would definitely not allow him to join the team behind the palace.

Zhengluo had the final say, to temporarily block the team of Wangcheng, at least one thousand people must be allocated, otherwise it will not be of much use at all.

Zheng Luo originally wanted to join him, but he was the leader and had to lead the team. Even if he wanted to, no one else would allow it. How can a team without a leader go? Now admit the fate of the new leader?

“I’ll just join in, brother, you lead the team to continue walking.” Zheng Cheng strode over and said.

Although Zheng Cheng is relatively reckless, his strength is not much weaker than Zheng Luo, otherwise he would not compete with Zheng Luo for the leadership position. On weekdays, the two brothers are not pleasing to the eye. At this time, Zhengcheng stepped forward.

Zheng Luo looked at this Little Brother, suddenly feeling sore in his eyes, opened his mouth to talk, and was interrupted by Zheng Cheng: “Don’t talk nonsense, that’s it, how many people are there? Let me see.”

Speaking of Zhengcheng, he snatched the cloth with the name on Zhengluo’s hand, “Oh, Duokang and Guangyi are also here, and Wacha is also there, um, not bad, there is also the kid. , Courageous, and Shao… hey, brother, how come there is Shao Xuan’s name on this? How can you let Shao Xuan be on this? Your leader is getting more and more confused!”

Zheng Cheng is to blame his brother when he catches the opportunity.

Zhengluo was stunned when he heard it, and Laoshou snatched the cloth. He told everyone while he was resting, and then put the cloth on a rock and asked those who met the requirements and were willing to stay to write their names on it. There were too many people around at that time, and he didn’t pay attention. When did Shao Xuan write his name on it? !

Anyone in the team can stay, even if it is Zhengluo, he will stay when necessary. Only two people cannot stay. One is a witch. Many things can’t be done without a witch. For this trip, there must be a witch. exist. And the other person is Shao Xuan.

Shao Xuan is the Elder of the tribe. He wears ancestral bone ornaments. If you want to take the tribe back to the homeland, except for witches, you can’t do without Shao Xuan. What’s more, Shao Xuan is the person over there, without Shao Xuan. , Even if they could go back, there would be many difficulties, and their eyes were blackened over there.

“Cross out, quickly cross out Shao Xuan’s name!” Zheng Cheng didn’t know where to pick out a dark green mud and stuck it on Shao Xuan’s name.

In the next few days, the team continued to go, and Zheng Luo continued to check the list to see if it met the conditions he said. When he was about to leave this barren mountain, Zheng Luo reported the final list.

These thousand people will be placed behind the team. If they encounter people from the royal city, they will have to hold them. They are the last shield of the tribe to block the spears of the royal city.

There is an atmosphere of sadness in the team, but everything has been explained these days. These people know what they are going to do and the possible consequences.

After Zhengluo reported the list, after a brief talk, he collected the cloth and planned to wipe his red eyes. Although he had seen many deaths and injuries along the way, this time, it was not the small forces in front, but the one. tough battle. As the leader, Zheng Luo felt sad, but he still had to make the necessary sacrifices in order to return. If necessary later, he himself would stand up.

As soon as he rubbed his eyes, Zheng Luo saw Shao Xuan standing in front of him as soon as he opened his eyes.

Knowing what Shao Xuan was for, Zheng Luo coughed, “Shao Xuan, you know, all other people in our tribe can stay, including me, in the team behind the palace, only you and Wu can’t, otherwise, who will bring the tribe back to its homeland?”

Shao Xuan paused and said, “I just want to give it a try.”

“Try what?” Zheng Luo wondered.

“If I encounter people from the Royal City, I want to try to stop them, if I can’t stop them, at least I can cause them some trouble.”

“You? What trouble do you want to cause them…No, you want to borrow the power of your ancestors?!” Zheng Luo stared at Shao Xuan abruptly.

“Yes.” Shao Xuan nodded.

“No, you want to take the tribe back with the power of your ancestors. You can’t take risks here. We finally got here. We can’t take this to gamble!” Zheng Luo refused.

“If the old ancestors were here, they wouldn’t want to see everyone die here in order to go back. Chief, you know, I can live from the mouth of the king beast, and people from the king city can continue to live, and, It can also make the soldiers a little more relaxed and buy more time for the team.”

“no!”

“The ancestors also agreed.”

“you put……”

“If you don’t believe me, ask the bone ornament.” Shao Xuan took the bone ornament off and handed it to Zhengluo.

The muscles on Zheng Luo’s face twitched twice, his ass ability to communicate with his ancestors? It was always the witch communicating with the ancestors!

Seeing that Shao Xuan was still staring at him, Zheng Luo looked at the bone ornament that he handed in front of him, turned his head tangledly, and waved his hand, “Go to the witch! Do whatever witch says!”

Shao Xuan grinned, Wu Wu wouldn’t object.

Wu did not object, but after hearing Shao Xuan’s words to stay behind, he stared at Shao Xuan expressionlessly for nearly ten minutes, staring at Shao Xuan’s forehead sweating, and then said lightly: “Go. ”

If it weren’t for Wu’s hand holding the cane, and the blue veins on the back of his hand protruding too hard, others would definitely think Wu’s heart was as calm as it was on the face.

At this time, no one can be calm. Confusion and uncertainty about the future, worry and anxiety about what is coming, however, they have already come here, and they cannot look back.

Walking out of this barren barren mountain, the field of vision became wider and he gained popularity. The grass on the ground has formed a few clear roads because of frequent people walking, and there are still some clear ruts on the ground.

The people around you are all trading teams between the tribes, but compared to the black bears and their caravans, they are much smaller, just a few small tribes trading teams, with a large number of only a hundred people. , There are only twenty or thirty people with fewer people.

Seeing Yanjiao’s team, they all cast their curious eyes. They hadn’t seen Yanjiao Ren, but they were just wondering where the team came from. It seemed that they had gone through a long journey, and their clothes were all dirty, and their faces were tired, but they couldn’t conceal the momentum.

not to be trifled. This is the first impression of people who come and go.

As a result, these people buried their heads and hurried to leave. They were worried that the people in Yanjiao would snatch the goods.

Shao Xuan looked at the sky, and the bird was no longer there, but that didn’t mean that the other party gave up monitoring. On the contrary, the other party felt that there was no need to monitor it anymore, because they were coming soon.
