After discovering Lao Qi's abandoned car, Yang Yan drove the Toyota off-road into the bushes to hide, and then Wuwei brought weapons and strong flashlights to the three of them, and followed the traces left by the Indians' horse team.

The cold night in the mountains, coupled with the desolate chirping of owls in the mountains and forests, made people's spine chill, and their hearts were raised.

Wu Wei took the flashlight in front of him and walked forward according to the horseshoe prints on the ground, Yang Yan followed closely behind him, and finally Ah Yan, he held the front and rear handles of the MP7 submachine gun tightly with both hands, and looked nervously to both sides, always feeling that something was watching him.

With the dark mountains on one side, the gloomy woods on the other, and the rugged land at his feet, Ah Yan was shallow and shallow behind Yang Yan, and if he was not careful, he would trip over the stones. Walking in such a mountain forest for the first night will inevitably make Ah Yu's heart tremble.

In order to give himself courage, Ah Yan had to talk to Yang Yan in front of him from time to time.

"Yanyan, why did you say the Indians took Lao Qi and them?"

"Of course, it's because they're bad, and the bad guys are annoying to anyone who sees them. ”

"How do the Indians know that they are bad people?"

"I'm not an Indian, how can I know. Yang Yan said angrily, "Why do you keep asking nonsense." ”

Speaking is a distraction and also alleviates the fear in the heart.

They had been walking along the wide valley for two or three hours, and Wu Wei, who had been walking in front, suddenly stopped, and faintly saw through the faint moonlight the pitch-black and towering mountain cliffs not far away, where they stood at the bottom of the cliffs.

"Brother Wuwei, why don't you leave?" Yang Yan asked curiously.

"Do you want to take a break? I'm tired from walking for so long. Ah Yu walked to Wuwei's side as he spoke.

"What do you see that?" said Wuwei as he shone the beam of light from the flashlight under the cliff on the side.

Under the light of the flashlight, I saw that under the entire cliff was a piece of white bones, piled up there like a small mountain, which looked eerie and terrifying in the dark night, and suddenly made people feel creepy.

"Mom, it's not a dead man's bone. Yang Yan exclaimed in fright, and grabbed Wuwei's arm tightly with both hands.

Ah Yu also felt his heart beat, his hair stood on end, and he held the gun in both hands and said nervously: "Is this the grave of the Indians? ”

Wuwei patted Yang Yan's hand and whispered: "It's true that this is a tomb, but it's not a human tomb, don't you see that these white bones are very thick?"

After Wuwei said this, the two of them found that the piles of white bones were really thick, and they were not human bones at all, and they immediately breathed a sigh of relief. People are so strange, they are stunned when they face human bones, and when they know that they are animal bones, they immediately become fearless.

"Oh, it scared me to death. Yang Yan let out a sigh of relief, stroked his chest with his hand and said, "Brother Wuwei, what kind of animal bones are these, how can there be so many?"

"If we get closer, you'll see. Wu Wei said as he walked towards the bottom of the cliff, and when he came to the pile of white bones, he first used a flashlight to shine on the upper part of the cliff, the cliff was about forty or fifty meters high, and it was very dark and he couldn't see anything clearly.

"These are the bones of a bison, don't you think they look like them?" said Wuwei to the two of them with a flashlight shining on the white bones.

"It's really like cow bones, how can there be so many? I think there are at least a few thousand of them here. Ah Yu asked in surprise.

Wu Wei looked at the large pile of bison bones under the cliff, and said with a sigh: "There are indeed thousands of them, and it is the first time I have seen such a spectacular scene, if my guess is right, this place should be called 'Bison Broken Head Cliff'." ”

"Bison Broken Head Cliff? Brother Wuwei, what does it mean?" Yang Yan asked curiously.

"I saw a book in my master's study not long ago, and this book has a detailed introduction to the Indians. Bison were the main source of food for the North American Indians, as well as a necessity for life. But bison are large wild animals, and it is difficult for humans to hunt them without gunpowder guns, but the clever Indians have invented a solution. Having no hunting tools, they rode horses en masse to chase herds of bison and drive them to the edge of the cliff. The herds of bison had no way to escape, and in the fright and confusion crowded each other, some of them fell off the cliff and fell to their deaths, and the Indians came back to the bottom of the cliff to collect their prey, and they stored the bison, and then made the hides and bones into clothes and labor utensils, respectively. The rest of the bones were thrown here, and the more they accumulated, the more they became what we see now, which is the origin of the 'Bison Broken Head Cliff'. ”

"So that's the case, Brother Wuwei, do you say they still use this method to hunt now?" Yang Yan asked curiously.

"Of course not, we all use automatic shotguns now, I'm talking about a hundred years ago, and you don't see that many of the bones have weathered. ”

"Damn, I killed so many bison without hunting tools, and now that I use a gun, I won't kill all the bison?" said Ah Yu in an exaggerated tone.

In fact, the Indians are not at all what you might think, they see the forests, the grasslands, the rivers, the animals and the people as God's arrangement and gifts, so they take great care to protect the natural environment. When the Indians cut down a tree, they replanted it. They hunt a bison and hold a memorial service to express their need and apology. And hunt only what is necessary for life, and never waste it. Hunt a bison, make a hat out of its scalp, make carpets and tents out of its fur, and dry its flesh as its main food. The real predators of nature are the civilized people who came here later, hunting bison in off-road vehicles or in helicopters, neither for food nor for use, but as a game. ”

"Yes, those who plunder the earth's resources the most and cause the most damage to the natural environment are the so-called modern civilized people. Ah Yan felt the same way, and then said in an approving tone: "Big brother didn't expect you to know that there are really a lot of things. ”

"When you were on a farm in Denmark, you went to the beach to play when you had nothing to do, but I stayed in the master's study and read a lot. After Wuwei finished speaking, he hurriedly beckoned the two of them to continue chasing, "Let's go quickly, I have a hunch that the tribe of the Indians should not be far from here." ”

The three of them walked forward along the horseshoe prints, and after entering a valley, they walked for another three or four miles, when Wuwei suddenly stopped, turned off the flashlight, and suddenly the surroundings were pitch black.

"What's wrong, Brother Wuwei, why don't you leave?" asked Yang Yan, who was following him, softly.

After standing still, Wuwei took a few short inhalations with his nose, as if smelling the air, and then said to the two of them, "Do you smell anything?"

There is a breeze blowing along the valley, and it is the fresh air of the mountains, and if it is a smell, it is also the unique smell of the mountains and forests.

"I didn't smell anything. Ah Yu whispered.

"I didn't smell anything special. Yang Yan also shook his head and said.

Wu Wei didn't explain what he smelled, but said with certainty: "This valley must lead to the tribe of the Indians, and in more than an hour the sky should start to light up, and we must move quickly." After Wuwei finished speaking, he began to walk forward in the dark.

He walked ahead, and by the faint light of the sky, he hurried forward quickly along the course of the valley, and after walking some distance the front suddenly opened up.

At this time, Tian had just begun to invent, and Wu Wei could feel that there was a basin in front of him, and there was a faint flash of fire through the cracks in the trees.

"What I just smelled was the smell of fireworks, and this should be the place we were looking for. Wu Wei said as he observed the surrounding terrain, and then pointed to the woods on one side, "Let's lean over from there and take a look." ”

The three of them quickly burrowed into the woods and came to the Indian settlement under the cover of the trees.

Now the Indians live in places that are not as well defended as they used to be, and there are no wars between tribes, so they are no different from ordinary villages, only more rudimentary.

When they came to the edge of the clearing in the middle of the woods, they climbed a big tree, and the scene of the entire settlement was unobstructed.

The whole tribe was not as large as it should be, with only a dozen round houses and twenty or thirty tents made of bison hides. In the middle of the quarters there was a small circular square, where three bonfires were burning, and an Indian man had just added wood to the fire.

The quarters were silent, everyone seemed to be sleeping, and a few baby cries could be heard from some tents, but calm soon returned.

Wu Wei rode on the branch of the tree and said to Ah Yu, "Hand me the binoculars in your backpack." ”

Ah Yu took out the binoculars and handed them to Wuwei, and whispered, "The Indians don't seem to have gotten up yet, and they don't know where Olina and them are being held?"

As soon as Ah Yu's words were finished, he saw some people come out of the round house and tent, and gradually gather in the square in the middle, as if to hold some event.

After a while, I saw a wizard-like man, holding a percussion instrument in his hand, shaking and jumping and jumping at the same time. Although they couldn't hear the voice, they could guess that this person must be rapping.

The Indians in the square gathered more and more, and there were about a hundred. These people were scattered around the square, with women and children on one side and young men on the other.

A short time later, three men came out of the largest circular room near the square. Wu Wei could clearly see from the binoculars that they were all wearing loose white clothes and trousers, with large strings of ornaments around their necks, and hats with beautiful feathers on their heads. Wu Wei guessed that they must be people like the chiefs or elders of the tribe.

After the chief sat down on the edge of the square, the shaman stopped praying. I saw a few able-bodied Indians escorting four people from the tent not far away, towards this side of the square.

"Big brother, look, it's Olina and them. Ah Yu excitedly pointed to the middle of the residential area and shouted excitedly.

"You speak low, be careful to be heard, we are not without eyes. Yang Yan scolded Ah Yan softly.

Originally, Wuwei asked Yang Yan to wait under the tree, but after Wuwei and Ah Yan climbed up the tree, she also climbed up the branch, holding the trunk with both hands, stepping on the branch with her foot, and looking into the residential area.

Wuwei didn't speak, he carefully observed the situation in the square with a telescope. On one side of the square were several wooden stakes, and the four people who were escorted out were tied to the stakes. Then came the sound of war drums beating from the square, and the wizard was waving his arms and jumping in the clearing in front of them.

Seeing this scene, Wuwei said that he couldn't say it in his heart, it seemed that these Indians were going to punish them, Wuwei couldn't guess why this happened, if it wasn't for violating the beliefs of the Indians, it would not be like this.

"Big brother, the situation doesn't seem right, it looks like Olena and they are in danger. Ah Yan and Yang Yan also felt that the situation was in crisis, and couldn't help but say to Wuwei.

Wuwei didn't have time to think about it, and anxiously said to Ah Yan and Yang Yan: "Hurry up, I have to save Olina." ”

The three of them hurriedly came down from the tree, Yang Yan grabbed Wuwei's arm, and asked worriedly: "There are so many of them, how can you save Olina, what if you are arrested together?"

"I can't care so much about it, let's rush in first, I don't think these Indians will be so barbaric as to be unreasonable. Wuwei turned back to Ah Yan and said, "Ah Yan, you and Yan Yan are waiting for me here, if I am also detained by the Indians, you will immediately return to the place where we are hiding the car, and then drive to Zhang Yilu and ask him to find a way again." ”

"No, I'm going with you, and we're going to die together. Yang Yan immediately said loudly.

"Big brother, I'll go too, I can't let you face the danger alone. Ah Yu also said stubbornly.

Wu Wei immediately glared at the two of them with round eyes, and said word by word: "You know my character, don't force me to be angry, I don't have time to talk nonsense with you now, just wait for me here." As he spoke, Wuwei handed the telescope in his hand to Ah Yu, and then reached out and pulled out the pistol from the holster under his armpit and handed it to him.

Yang Yan and Ah Yan saw that Wuwei was really angry, and no one dared to speak anymore, and they also knew in their hearts that if they really followed, they might add chaos to Wuwei and distract Wuwei.

"Big brother, you should bring a gun, in case you ......," Ah Yu saw that Wuwei handed over the pistol to himself and hurriedly said.

"Carrying a gun doesn't do anything, it causes misunderstandings. After Wuwei finished speaking, he turned around and wanted to leave.

"Brother Wuwei, you must come back, I will wait for you here......" Yang Yan burst into tears before he could say anything.

Wuwei's heart was hot, he gently wiped Yang Yan's tears with his hand, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'll be fine." With that, he turned and walked towards the tribe of the Indians.

After watching Wuwei walk into the Indian residential area, Ah Yu and Yang Yan hurriedly climbed the big tree again, nervously paying attention to Wuwei's every move......

Lao Qi and Olena were escorted into a cowhide tent, and the Indians did not loosen their ties, but pushed them down on the carpet with their arms tied. Lao Qiyi sat on a blanket made of bison skin, and when he saw the Indians who had taken them leave the tent, he immediately began to curse loudly, and scolded in the dark, but fortunately, the Indians outside could not understand what he was scolding

The two subordinates next to him seemed to be tired of listening, and couldn't help but say to Lao Qi: "Boss, take a rest, they don't understand what you scold, let's think of a way for us to get out first." ”

"Damn, if you can come up with a way, I wouldn't have thought about it earlier, and I still use your nonsense. "Lao Qi is like a mad dog, catch whoever bites whom.

Olena has not spoken since she was kidnapped by them, this girl who is quiet and delicate on the surface, but she is strong on the inside, she firmly believes that she will be able to escape, she believes that God will help her, and the bad guys will definitely be punished. So when she saw the Indians arresting them, she was very happy, although she was also escorted together, but she was indescribably happy to see the seventh child being punished.

Olena sat calmly to the side, and when she saw the ugly form of the old seven, her eyes showed a look of contempt. This is the case with people like Lao Qi, who usually show off their might, but their arrogance disappears when they encounter danger.

Seeing Olina sitting calmly on the side and looking at herself, Lao Qi sent the fire to Olina again, "Damn, what do you look at, it's all your stinky*, mourning star's fault, can you suffer such a crime without you......"

Seeing that Lao Qi didn't bother to pay attention to him like a mad dog, Olena twisted her head to the side in disgust.

The guy who was driving the car asked Lao Qi worriedly, "Boss, what do you say these barbaric guys will do to us?"

"I've heard that the Indians are going to cut off their captives when they take them, and they won't do the same to us, will they?" said another, suddenly frightened.

Hearing his subordinates say this, Lao Qi's eyes showed a look of horror, and then he drooped his head like a leper dog with muscles and bones, he didn't know what the Indians could do to him, but he was sure that the Indians would not let him go easily.

Just then, an Indian walked into the tent, the same English-speaking interpreter as he had just been.

Standing in the middle of the tent where he could straighten his waist, he looked at the four people sitting on the ground and said, "The sorcerer of our tribe has asked the almighty god to punish you with 'heart piercing', and if you accept the sorcerer's 'heart piercing' and survive, then you can leave here." ”

"What...... What the...... Is it 'heart piercing'? ...... Can you explain that?" asked Lao Qi in horror, he was obviously frightened by the words "heart piercing".

The interpreter said expressionlessly, "Mind piercing is when our great wizard shoots your chest with the arrow of his mind, and if anyone can withstand it, it means that the gods are protecting him, and he can leave." The Indian interpreter said, ignoring them, and walked out of the tent.

Lao Qi and the two men were like ashes, and the three of them didn't say anything for a long time, they were already frightened by this unheard-of punishment.

"Boss, do you know what an arrow of thought is?" asked the driver timidly.

Lao Qi shook his head blankly, "I haven't heard of it, it must be a very powerful punishment method, otherwise it won't be used on us." ”

"Oh boy, it looks like we're going to die this time, you savage Indians......" said the other guy with a cry.

"Don't howl yet, didn't you listen to that guy say that it's possible to be fine?" Lao Qi said loudly to his subordinates, he pretended to be very the surface, but he was terrified in his heart, praying vigorously in his heart, praying that God could bless him.

The three of them did not close their eyes all night in terror, and when the day was just beginning to dawn, there was a dull knocking sound outside the tent, and after a while there was a noisy flow of people.

Lao Qi immediately pricked up his ears and listened carefully to the sound outside the tent, and suddenly a few heavy footsteps walked towards the tent, and he couldn't help but blurt out, "It's bad, they're coming to punish us......"

The three of them stared at the curtain hanging at the door of the tent in horror, and sure enough, a few strong Indian warriors came in and dragged them out of the tent without saying a word......
