Lotus Boy (2)

(Cat flutter Chinese) "Patriarch, the barbarian tribe has sent people to the Yue Nu clan to grab food again, and the Yue Nu patriarch asked us to send people to reinforcements quickly!"

Under the gray blue sky, next to the marsh lake, there was a muffled thunder, and the gray sky rolled out a hideous face like a sting.

Today's Leng people have long forgotten the comfortable and peaceful life in the past, and now they are walking on thin ice in Wanqiu.

At this time, they had changed the clothes they had lived in the Central Plains and changed into the costumes of the Yue women - wearing a hat covered with withered grass on their heads, a thick linen coat on their upper body, a string of bone chains around their necks, a half-hood and half-truncated lower body, no shoes and no socks, and bare arms.

Savage, direct, simple, light, or insist on praise, it can be said that it has a special exotic style, but it is a pity that no one in the Leng clan knows how to appreciate this "style".

In the eyes of the Central Plains people, this kind of costume is a manifestation of cultural regression and self-depravity, and for the Tengsnake people, it is also a manifestation of shame.

However, not for survival, but to be able to live and wait for the moment of revenge of the Teng Snake, and to restore the mission of the Teng Snake pure-blood royal family, they had to abandon some of their self-persistence.

Defection, on the other hand, also means that you have to abandon your own culture and temporarily attach yourself to other races.

"How many people do they need?" The patriarch of the Leng clan opened the cloth door from the triangular thatched hut and walked out, he was wearing a five-bird colored feather shawl, his figure was a little lower than a few years ago, and his perennial serious face looked old and deep at this moment.

The person who reported was Leng Huo, because he learned some superficial fist and foot martial arts, so he took a team of people to patrol at the entrance of the village all the year round, and after meeting the people of the Yue Nu tribe, he handed over the people to the clan elders first, and he ran from the village entrance to the patriarch in one breath, and he was already out of breath and out of breath.

After all, he was past the age of standing, he propped his knees and opened his mouth to pant: "They, they said, this time, the second barbarian tribe may, there may be five hundred people, so, so we here, inside, must go out and reach a hundred before we can do it, for example, if we refuse, he, they will not form an alliance with our Leng clan." ”

"A hundred?" The patriarch of the Leng clan gasped and slapped his palm on the pillar of the door, making the grass rattle.

"yes, yes." Leng Huo was taken aback and nodded hurriedly.

The patriarch of the Leng clan trembled his beard, his eyes were like solidified ashes, dim but burst out with a faint fire: "There are only one hundred and twenty people left in our clan, and he will ask for a hundred, a hundred...... It's almost all about to wipe out our family! ”

"But patriarch, what should we do, if it's really a hundred, then, wouldn't it be even our little dolls to participate?" Leng Huo rubbed his palms vigorously, looking anxious and worried, and lowered his eyebrows.

"Fifty! Fifty at most! The patriarch of the Leng clan gritted his teeth, his eyes widened, and he said coldly.

Leng Huo was stunned: "But-"

"You will ...... Let's take it with you, just tell them that he is the young patriarch of the Leng clan, and he will also follow them to participate in the war, this is the greatest sincerity of my Leng clan, otherwise, the Leng clan can no longer compromise! The patriarch of the Leng clan turned his head, his voice was as cold and hard as ice, and every word was bitten very hard.

"What?! Let, let him go to war? But, But, Patriarch, he's only eight years old. When the messenger heard this, he was stunned.

The Leng clan patriarch turned around abruptly, and his heavy breathing seemed to show the unrest in his heart.

"Didn't the Infinite Dao people say that with him, the Leng clan would not be destroyed? I'll keep him, and he'll have to be useful!" In this kind of time when the whole clan is in danger, those who can stand up are fighting, and if he wants to live, he must also do his part! ”

“…… Well, I'll give it a try. Leng Huoduo glanced at the Leng clan leader, then scratched his head and let out a long sigh.

"Patriarch, this battle is extremely dangerous, if he, if he ......"

The patriarch of the Leng clan raised his head, as if he had suddenly been dragged by a hand, and his whole body stiffened, and after a long time, he relaxed little by little, his shoulders drooped, and then waved his hand decadently and tiredly.

"This is fate, this is fate......"

The herald Leng Huo pursed the corners of his mouth, lowered his gaze, and stopped talking, he summoned a few people in the clan and set off together to the dark swamp lake next to the glacier.

All these years, gluttony has been living there alone.

When they came to the shore of the lake, which had dried up the riverbed, the black stone was wet, the sky was clear and low, and among the dead vines and grass, there was a rusty iron cage, and in the cage was crawling a dirty black thin figure, he was pouting, as if he was looking out of the cage to grasp something, and was squirming again and again, when he heard footsteps behind him, he stopped his movements, and turned his head slowly.

And Leng Huo and the others approached, and when they saw the surroundings of the iron cage clearly, they all looked strange and shocked.

Because the area around the iron cage, which was supposed to be overgrown with weeds, is now so clean that there is no grass, and it is empty, revealing mud muscle lines, and only the white bones of many animals are piled up.

It turned out that over the years, he had relied on these things to barely make a living.

How old is it, how old is it......

Leng Huo only felt very heavy in his chest for a while, and something was blocked in his throat, and he couldn't afford to hate gluttony at this time...... But I can't take pity on it.

"Hey! Wait a minute, you'll follow us. Leng Huo took a deep breath, his originally round figure had already become thin and capable in Wanqiu over the years, so he shook his five-short figure, his face was dark, and he kicked the edge of the iron cage.

Greedy was startled, and raised his head suddenly, his face was already so dirty that he couldn't see the primary color and facial features clearly, but he could still distinguish that he had a pair of watery soft eyes, and his long eyelashes were well-behaved and timid, staring at them vigilantly from afar, without saying a word.

Leng Huo glanced at him, and then hurriedly glanced away.

The eyes as big as apricots, black and bright, clear, seductive, so innocent, so pure that he looked at the whole world, as if he had never seen anything dirty, dangerous.

"You guys go over and open the cage and bring him out." Leng Huo turned his face and waved at the people around him.

The two men hesitated unwillingly, and then stepped forward and opened the cage with a clatter.

And gluttony may have been accustomed to living in a cage for so many years, but now, he only knows how to fold his arms and squeeze himself into a corner, unable to resist or escape.

They shouted outside, and when they saw him stunned for a moment, like a fool, he only knew how to look at people with a pair of antelope-like eyes open, and they couldn't help but feel a kind of annoyance and anger in their hearts, and they hooked a chain with their feet, and then pulled it outward, dragging his thin body out.

Gluttony grabbed the chain around his neck, staggered to the ground, his big black eyes were full of water, and he followed behind them with confusion and confusion, he had been locked in a cage for several years, and he no longer knew how to stand on his feet, so when he was pulled forward, he just crawled hand and foot together.

He remembered that they were his people, and he remembered that they hated and rejected him, and although they said that they had come to take him back, he felt uneasy and afraid, so he did not dare to resist, nor did he dare to speak casually to make them angry.

Leng Huo brought gluttony back to the Leng tribe in this way, along the way, gluttony was like a wooden man, at their mercy, they helped him clean his face and change into relatively clean clothes.

Then, Gluttony didn't see the Leng clan patriarch, so they took him away from the Leng clan and took him to a strange place.

The Yue Nu tribe.

The Yue Nu tribe is not a big tribe in Wanqiu, but the big tribe is unwilling to form an alliance with the Leng clan, the weak only deserve to be with the weak, and only the weak need to be gathered together.

Maybe it's because he hasn't seen so many people for too long, or maybe he can't adapt to the popularity that is too lively, and he only feels that everything in front of him seems to be in a trance, distorted, and deformed.

In front of him was a group of imposing Yue Nu clansmen, each of whom held a bone spear in their hands and had green horizontal stripes on their faces, and they were negotiating with the Leng clan people under the sacrificial tower.

The expressions of both parties were not very good, and some people even pushed and scolded each other when the negotiations were fierce.

At this moment, gluttony, who had been hanging his head in the rear, was violently pulled out of the back of the crowd by a force.

He was not used to walking on his legs, but Leng Huo did not allow him to climb, so he could only bend his knees, hang down like an ape with his arms facing forward, and arch his whole body unsteadily.

The force of a forward lean nearly threw him to the ground, and he felt his neck tighten very uncomfortably, and he whimpered like an aggrieved beast, and looked up at the man wetly.

The person who did it was the patriarch of the Yue Nu clan, he was a middle-aged man with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, with a bearded face and dark and shiny skin, he stared at the greedy all over his body, with contempt and anger in his eyes, and with a wave of his big palm, he was slapped to the ground by a slap.

"This is your young patriarch?! Phew, how can such a person go to war? He shouted loudly, haughtily.

Leng Huo's face changed slightly, he glanced at gluttony, and then asked the people behind him to help him up, and then, looking up at the patriarch of the Yue Nu clan, he hissed and said: "Our Leng clan has already exhausted all its strength for this battle, and now even the weak young patriarch has come out to fight hard, we really have no one!" If you really don't want to cooperate, we'll evacuate immediately! ”

The patriarch of the Yue Nu clan was suddenly furious, and his eyes widened into fists: "Okay, when the time comes, this little lamb will be killed, and you won't blame us!" ”

Leng Huo and the people of the Leng clan both had cold faces, humiliation, but they did not speak.

"Let's go!"

The patriarch of the Yue Nu clan was about to leave with the clansmen, when the distant sour jujube tree cliff beside the cliff made a shocking sound of drums, and the cow drum skin was bang, wave after wave, wave after wave of eagerness and nervousness, spread throughout the entire Yue Nu clan.

"Yo~~~ It's coming, the barbarians are coming!"

"Hurry up and fight back!"

"Alert! Alert! ”

The patriarch of the Yuenu tribe was startled, the giant bear stomped his feet heavily, and immediately led the tribesmen to run towards the high place of the tribe's wooden fence, only to see that in the distance, in a low bush jungle, the barbarians with a team of archers and spearmen had begun to attack the Yuenu tribe.

The patriarch of the Yue Nu tribe, Nu Chi, immediately organized the forces of the clan, and he ordered each of them to wear bone armor, wear a shield on their heads, and raise a bone spear in their hands, and began to counterattack.

Iron tools are very rare in Wanqiu, basically except for the big tribes, there will be iron tools, and the general tribes use bone knives.

As soon as the two sides fought, a fierce battle began, because the Leng clan and other small tribes were reinforced by manpower, although the barbarians exhausted all kinds of siege methods, but because the Yue Nu clan also tried their best to defend, it has not been able to attack for a long time.

But at this time, the arrows of the barbarians flew over the walls like locusts, and then a large group of men and horses with iron swords followed.

"Damn it, the barbarians are here again!"

"It's knives, they have iron knives!"

The power of the arrow is huge, the threat of iron is also not to be reckoned with, the Yue Nu clan is not a villain was shot and fell to the ground, fortunately was not shot, then hurriedly turned around and fled, you hit me, trampled on each other, the team was in chaos.

Nuchi was also seriously wounded in the fierce battle, and he yelled, "Don't run! Put Leng's people at the front to resist! The rest retreated! ”

"What?!"

Leng Huo and the others' faces changed greatly, but they were squeezed forward by everyone with spears, and they were forced to not advance.

"Angry red! You're treacherous! Leng Huo shouted loudly.

"No, this is to preserve strength, your Leng clan is from the original, you should know what it means to abandon the tail and protect the head, if you are not willing to do this, then your Leng clan will completely lose the protection of our Yue Nu clan!" Nuchi was protected by his clansmen, and he squinted his eyes and snorted.

"You-" Leng Huo was stunned.

At this time, the barbarian clan had already attacked, and as soon as Leng Huo turned around, the whole person was bloody, and the people of the Leng clan were panicked.

How could a team of more than fifty people, with only a blunt bone spear, be able to defeat the barbarian's sharp arrows and iron knives and spears!

The Yue Nu clan completely used the Leng clan as a meat shield to make time for them to retreat.

Although they knew this, they had to compromise and sacrifice, at least in this way, the Yue Nu clan escaped by luck, and the rest of their clansmen could still get a trace of protection, if everyone was all killed by the barbarians today, then in this world, I am afraid there will be no Teng Snake Leng Clan.

"Brothers, don't be afraid! Death is not scary! For the sake of the Leng family, for revenge, let's fight with them! After Leng Huo finished roaring loudly, he gritted his teeth and rushed forward alone with a wild howl.

The other Leng clan people had white faces and red eyes, and those who picked up stones picked up stones, those who took wooden sticks took wooden sticks, or picked up the bone spears of the dead people of the Yue Nu clan, followed Leng Huo, and rushed forward frantically.

Seeing that the Leng clan was about to be submerged in a sea of swords and people, suddenly, a black shadow rushed out from the rear with a "boom".

At this time, the hundred and ten red-skinned waist drums hanging under the Yue Nu Sacrifice Pagoda made a heavy sound, it slammed into the wooden stake, and the pieces of woven ribbons suddenly floated up without wind, and the empty sky of the Yue Nu clan heard the knock knock, knock knock......
