CHAPTER XLIV
The man opened his blurred eyes, and the faint light of the unit shrouded in the fire, and in the distance sat a dozen people dressed in soft cloth.
"Tu, he's awake." The man's side face was high and his eyes reflected the fire, and he sat by the campfire, his face dyed a faint orange yellow by the soft firelight.
"Have you noticed his body today, it's very strong, and there is not a piece of extra flesh on his body."
Tu grinned, looked at his master and said, "Lord Cang, he is an officer, you know that even civilians in Xiangjiao City must always be cautious, because if they are not careful, they may turn from civilians to slaves." ”
"As a warrior of Xiangkou City, he should have such a Xiong Jian's physique."
Cang Yan picked up the kettle at hand and took a sip, glanced at the black bear casually, and looked at the black bear who was swaying over.
"You saved me?" There was a terrible scar on the man's arm, but it was obviously not very old, because the flesh on it looked extremely different from the color of the man's body.
Cang Yan lowered the water bladder in his hand to the black bear's hand, and said with a smile: "Drink some water and eat first." ”
After taking a few gulps of water, the black bear wiped a handful of the remaining water marks on his mouth, and his thirsty mouth suddenly moistened, and he picked up the meat that was being roasted in the fire, like a hungry wolf, and devoured it.
"How could you faint alone in the snow? Didn't your army in Xiangjiao City go out in several squads to find and capture slaves? ”
How the city became rich is well known to the surrounding cities, relying on the capture or gathering of tribesmen, conquering one tribe after another, bringing those sturdy men back to Xiangkou to do coolies, bringing women back to do some labor, and even selling their bodies for the pastime of passing guests.
Even the lords who often bought slaves from Xiangjiao City did not like this city, because the behavior of the lords of Xiangjiao City was outrageous.
Not only did he train an army for himself, but he also sold the children of slaves, who he trained into fighting wolves and sold them to several surrounding cities.
The black bear looked at Cang Gully in silence and didn't say a word, for fear that the man in front of him who seemed to be extremely shrewd would see through his true identity.
"If you don't want to say it, forget it." Cangjie was not annoyed by the black bear's silence, because everyone knew what a perverted person Lord Xianghu was.
If it weren't for the fact that the slaves he trained were really good to use, and the lords of other cities would not have the cheekiness to bully those tribesmen, but they really needed labor, otherwise Xiangkou City, a city of human trafficking, would have been united and destroyed by several surrounding cities.
"I have already sent someone to Xiangkou City, and your men will come to escort us tomorrow morning, and you can go with them then." Cang Yan thought about it and said as he looked at the snowflakes falling in the sky.
When the black bear heard Cang Gully's words, he frowned deeply, his mind turned quickly, and he looked at Cang Gully's young and handsome face and said: "Actually, the team I led encountered an avalanche, and the slaves brought back were almost dead, and I had only one way to die when I returned to Xiangjiao City." ”
Cang Yu thought that the direction in which the man fell to the ground before was indeed the opposite direction of Xiangkou City, the slave died, and even the soldiers who went to capture the slave died, and the person who returned to Xianghe as the leader of the team was indeed very likely to be killed by the lord who was sharp and harsh on wealth, of course, it was more likely that the man was sold as a slave.
"My lord, what are you going to do with this Xiangkou man?" Intentionally or unintentionally, he glanced at the man sitting by the fire and staring at the ravine.
"Actually, it's not impossible to take him back to Rab City, anyway, we're all here to buy slaves, and it's okay to bring one more back." Cang Yan squinted his eyes at the man sitting at the campfire and said.
The sky was drifting with snow and rain, the cold wind blew, and the biting cold immediately penetrated the fur on the body, and the more Lin shivered, Ishihara Wu's wound had been treated, fortunately, it was winter, although the injury on Ishihara Wu's body had been for more than 20 days, but after more and more treatment, he finally saved his life.
Stone Stone, dressed in a black bear skin, walked through a snowy field, and his eyes were no longer as bright as before.
The whereabouts of his son Shi Chi are unknown, his wife Ellie was arrested, the tribe was broken, and the most unfortunate things happened one after another for a while, if there was anything else that could make him a little happier. Probably the boy who had saved him had returned to the tribe.
As for the boy's suggestion of letting the craftsmen join the Yanyi tribe together, Shi Zhi agreed to Yue Lin's words without thinking about it.
There were still more than 300 old, weak, sick and disabled people left in the tribe, a few women and children, and then there were twenty-three warriors who could hunt, and even in the summer, the food caught by more than twenty warriors hunting was not enough to feed so many people, not to mention that it was still a winter when food was scarce.
"Yue Linwu, I have already informed the people of the tribe, and they have expressed their willingness to accept Yan Yi's conditions."
The craftsman's hut is not like the house in the Yanyi tribe with a new stove, the house is dark and cold, if you just sit still, people will only have cold hands and feet.
Wu Chen was holding Yue Lin in his arms, rubbing Yue Lin's little hands that were frozen red with his hands, and he was steaming.
Hearing Shi Shi's words, Yue Lin withdrew from Wu Chen's arms, his face was a little red, he looked at Shi Shi with dark eyes, and said in a crisp and somewhat doubtful voice: "Chief, you must think clearly, once you really go to Yanyi, the craftsman tribe will disappear in the true sense in the future." ”
Shi Shi showed a helpless smile, "I have no choice, if I don't join Yanyi, the people of the tribe can only starve to death, everyone is dead, what is the use of the tribe?" ”
Yue Lin nodded in agreement.
"Then let's leave together when the snow is small, Ishihara's wound is still a little severe, and the others don't walk fast in the snow."
At night, Yue Lin lay on the bed, curled up like a newborn puppy, shrunk into the bed, with a haystack and a soft fur under him.
Wu Chen hugged Yue Lin's waist and hugged the person in his arms, he was very relieved at the moment, his chest was close to Yue Lin's back, he felt the rhythm of the young man's body breathing, and his head was thinking about the question about the army that suddenly appeared this time.
Yue Lin is right, Yan Yi must immediately cultivate a warrior who can fight with others.
What he has seen and heard in the craftsman tribe in the past few days has made Wu Chen feel a kind of crisis, there are more powerful opponents outside the tribe, they don't need to communicate with the tribe, because they are more developed, there are better things, they can rely on their strong strength to enslave the tribesmen.
Wu Chen lowered his head and kissed the person in his arms, with a slight melancholy on his face.
I must protect Yan Yi and protect the person in my arms.
Now Yan Yi has been able to make copper knives and copper spears, and the weapons have barely caught up, as long as the tribal warriors are brave enough, the Yan Yi tribe does not have to be afraid of being attacked.
The snow was much lighter, there were some faint clouds hanging in the sky, and the sun had not yet fully risen, revealing only a small face.
The group walked on the vast road, and the ground was full of large and small footprints, and these people were obviously a little tired.
Fortunately, when I went to the craftsman, I got more food, and when I was in the craftsman tribe, Wu Chen also led the warriors to try to catch some food.
Ishihara sat on a snow-pulled cart made of wooden planks, and Ishishi led a few warriors to drag the hemp rope in front of the snow-pulled cart and walked hard in the snow.
The cold wind pierced a person's body like a piercing needle. The more I walked beside the snowy cart, my body was weak, and my movements became extremely slow.
"The more you come?" The man noticed the boy's abnormality, grabbed Yuelin's hand with his hand, and called out the boy's name with a frown.
Trying to inhale through my nose and breathe, my feet felt like they were being filled with lead, and I struggled to support my body: "I'm fine. ”
"Your face is white, are you okay?"
If it weren't for the group of people behind him, Yanyi would have slid back to Yanyi in a sled, and they wouldn't have had to walk in the snow for so long.
"Come up, I'll carry you." Wu Chen squatted down, and the corner of the heavy fur was on the ground, sticking to the thick edelweiss on the ground.
Is this a man carrying himself, or is it carrying himself?
"No, I can go." Yue Lin thought about it, but still felt embarrassed to be carried in front of so many people.
Wu Chen lowered his head, rubbed his head against Yue Lin's forehead, and grinned at the corners of his mouth: "You don't want me to carry you away, do you?" ”
The magnetic voice thought in a low voice in Yue Lin's ears, his breath swept across his neck, and after glaring at the man, Yue Lin still climbed onto Wu Chen's back.
After walking for a while, suddenly there was a chirp from the sky, and a huge figure flew above the sky, and a shadow fell on the ground, enveloping Yue Lin and the others.
Bai Ling's originally beautiful and shiny feathers covered its body messily, and there were a few white feathers missing on its tail. There was still some blood at the corner of its mouth, and a small piece of its sharp beak was missing.
It anxiously searched with its own eyes for the figure on the ground.
"Bai Ling?" Wu Chen frowned, then took out the whistle in his arms and blew it.
"Goo!" Big bald monsters?
"Goo, goo." The little bald monster must be with him!
Bai Ling quickly dived in the air and landed.
"Bai Ling, come here." -
