Chapter 346: Strange
Leaf was just before the army of the Black Fire Clan was about to set off when she was suddenly told that the black-robed priest was looking for her. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info and when she rushed to Lu Chen's side with anxiety all the way, what she heard was Lu Chen's expressionless face telling her to let her prepare and go with him this time.
This request or order attracted the sideways glances of many barbarian warriors around, and many eyes fell on Ye Zi's stunned face.
Among the barbarian tribes, at least in the northern frontiers, warfare has always been the business of men. Armed with weapons, warriors fought bloodily and desperately on the battlefield for the sake of their clan and glory, never allowing women to follow them to the battlefield.
It's just that although this order is obviously contrary to the unwritten rules among the barbarian tribes, no one has come forward to speak out about it, and it seems that most people still value the former more in the reverence of the black-robed priest and the abnormality of a small maid, so Ye Zi left the black fire tribe with the large army in a daze, and also a little involuntarily.
Although at the beginning, Lu Chen was very calm and seemed to be thoughtful and told Ye Zi to prepare before leaving, but in fact it was a different matter at all.
The entire army of the Black Fire Clan was ready to go, and even the most important sacrificial ceremonies had been held, so it was certainly impossible for so many people to wait a little longer for an inconspicuous little maid, and the black-robed priest would just leave after explaining to her.
Therefore, the little barbarian maid who was in a daze and panic was at that moment, and she didn't have time to pack anything, so she finally grabbed a few clothes casually and ran over, and then followed Lu Chen's side with a look of grievance and nervousness, and walked towards the unknown battlefield ahead.

Very few or even almost no barbarian women have been on the battlefield, so Ye Zi is very strange and a little scared of the feeling in the army, after all, she is surrounded by murderous-looking men, and fundamentally speaking, most of these people are not the clansmen she grew up with, but the murderers who just slaughtered her clan some time ago.
Ye Zi felt very nervous, and even had some difficulty breathing, for this feeling, she was very ashamed and aggrieved in her heart, because even women, especially, as a daughter of a barbarian, have the feeling of fear and fear is still looked down upon, including herself.
However, so many complex emotions were intertwined, and in the end, that feeling of fear and uneasiness prevailed, so even though Ye Zi still had a little resentment towards Lu Chen in his heart, he still subconsciously approached him.
Lu Chen didn't have any unnecessary reaction to this, at most he just glanced at her lightly, and then let the barbarian girl follow him.
It's just that after walking for a while, Lu Chen suddenly opened his mouth and asked Ye Zi without a word: "When you were in the Black Fire Camp before, did you stay alone in the stone house?"
Ye Zi was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, what's wrong?"
Lu Chen was silent for a moment, and then said, "It's okay." ”
Since he said that it was okay, Ye Zi didn't dare to ask more, and after that, Lu Chen didn't say anything to her again.
Along the way, Ye Zi followed the elite warriors of the Black Fire Clan to a campsite, and soon after, it was dark.

Before dark, the leaders of the Black Fire, led by Huoyan, had already ordered their soldiers to settle down, so after the darkness fell, the camp quickly became quiet, and everything seemed to be very neat and solemn.
This atmosphere made Ye Zi feel a little surprised, because when she lived in her own tribe, that is, the Shenmu tribe in the past, although she didn't follow her like this time, she still knew some about the situation in the warrior team from the mouths of the clansmen next to her. The barbarians are already fierce and arrogant, and as a warrior who is about to fight to the death on the battlefield, and does not even know if there will be tomorrow or whether he can return from the battlefield, it is even more rude.
Loud noises, shouting and drinking, etc., are common, and even fights are not uncommon, which is actually the norm in many small tribes. But that night, for the first time, she saw the team of the Black Fire Clan that had suddenly become so disciplined, and she was a little frightened for a while.
Although he didn't know much about these battles, Ye Zi could clearly feel that the murderous aura of these people in front of him who seemed to be cold and quiet seemed to be far better than what he had heard and seen before.
She was still guarding Lu Chen's side, because in this land and this team, she didn't know who else she could rely on except for this black-robed priest. With her was the huge black wolf Ah Tu, this time Lu Chen also brought it out, but on this night, Ah Tu still looked a little lazy, and lay down beside Lu Chen early, squinting his eyes and falling asleep.
Ye Zi actually wanted to ask Lu Chen in his heart, what was the use of asking him to come with him about such a march and fighting?
However, she was still too afraid of the black-robed priest after all, so she finally hid the question in her heart, and walked around him with her head down to see if she could do something.
There were no barbarian warriors in the surrounding places, and most of them subconsciously stayed away from this black-robed priest, even if they already had the demonic runes engraved by the black-robed priest himself.
It was in this silence that Lu Chen suddenly said to Ye Zi: "You sit down, those who come out to fight are not happy, so you don't have to be busy." ”
Ye Zi was silent for a while when he heard this, and after a long time, he returned to Lu Chen and knelt down, and then asked boldly, "My lord, if that's the case, then why do you have to bring me over? If I don't clean up, I'm useless here?"
"It should still be somewhat useful...... Lu Chen looked at her very calmly and said, "I heard that you barbarians can eat people when they are extremely hungry." ”
Ye Zi's face turned white, his body trembled, and he hurriedly said: "No, no, there is no such thing, where did you hear this rumor, my lord!"
"I've seen it. Lu Chen's gaze flickered slightly, as if he remembered what he had seen and heard in that extremely dangerous and confused place a long time ago.
"Have you seen ......" Ye Zi was stunned for a moment, his face was full of suspicion, and he really didn't seem to believe it.
Lu Chen smiled, but he didn't intend to argue with her, but said lightly: "Rest early, otherwise you might have to get up early tomorrow." ”
Ye Zi said "oh", which was considered to be a promise, and lay down not too far from Lu Chen, and at the same time secretly scolded in his heart, saying: If this team does not reach the destination, of course it will be necessary to get up early, and you still need to say it.
It's just that on this night, or the next day, as Lu Chen said, they got up early, and they got up much, much earlier than ordinary early mornings.
When darkness covered the land, suddenly a huge number of black shadows rushed out of the night, and then, like wild beasts, fiercely pounced on the camp of black fire.
The darkness seemed to freeze in that moment.
In the camp, Lu Chen opened his eyes, his eyes were clear and bright, and he didn't seem to have slept from beginning to end, and beside him, Ye Zi also woke up suddenly, jumped up suddenly, and exclaimed: "What's wrong, what's wrong?"
It's just that when she turned her head and looked at Lu Chen with a dependent and inquiring gaze, she suddenly shook her body and froze in place.
The black-robed priest was still sitting on the ground, but with one hand on his chest, palm upward, a black flame emerging from the palm of his hand, and then burning silently.
Ye Zi held his breath, looked at the flame, and his body began to tremble, and at the same time, the flame suddenly "exhaled" outward, like a person's fingers, pointing in a certain direction.
Lu Chen raised his cold gaze, staring over there, staring at the nervous leaves, and after a while, he suddenly asked, "Is there anything unusual about your lower abdomen now?"
