Chapter 393: Life or Death

Just when the two sides were fighting, on the top of the mountain not far away, the earth rat climbed a big tree with several clansmen, and lurked to look this way.

He was dumbfounded by the bloody battle, when had there been such a tragic battle in this land, even when the contradiction between the Dadahar and the De'ang people was the deepest, it was just to send a few of the strongest warriors of the tribe to compete and divide the hunting ground.

And the battle in front of him has long exceeded his understanding, and human life is as worthless as mustard at this moment.

But what frightened him even more was that although the battle seemed to be extremely fierce, it was for the people of De'ang.

From the time the two sides fought until now, he had not seen a single outsider fall, and the silver things they were wearing ignored the attack of the wooden spear.

These outsiders are like solid rocks, and you can't shake them even if you can't shake them.

Watching the De'ang people fall one by one, the earth rat has an incalculable sense of happiness, if it weren't for the wise decision of the leader, he would have drunk these outsiders with the De'ang people to fight.

Whether he will be able to survive in such a battle is unknown.

From the fight to the present, the battle has lasted for more than twenty minutes, constantly brandishing weapons to cut down the enemy one by one, although there is no injury, but the intense consumption of physical strength is a little unbearable.

Near the phalanx, it can be described as a mountain of corpses, with corpses pressing on corpses, forming a wall of corpses that separates the two sides.

The young man stepped on the corpse of his companion and tried to attack the enemy, but the opponent's impenetrable spear formation did not allow him to find a weak point.

It may be that his so-called holy water has lost its effectiveness, and at this moment he feels that his arms are getting heavier and heavier, and his heart is pounding, as if it is about to burst.

But the consciousness gradually came to his senses, looking at the corpses all over the ground, the eyes of the young people were red, these fallen people were their own people, and they fell to the ground forever like stinky meat, but the enemy was not hurt by a single hair.

Fear, powerlessness, anger, all kinds of complex emotions came to my heart for a while, and I felt a smell of blood in my throat, "Poof! With a thud, a mouthful of blood gushed out, and his steps staggered, and he was a little unsteady on his feet.

The De'ang people who have regained their senses are scared at the moment, these outsiders are not something they can deal with at all, with the help of the holy water, they have not killed a single enemy, not to mention the upcoming backlash of the holy water, if they don't leave at this moment, they can only close their eyes and wait for death.

"Let's go quickly, the blood of the De'ang people can't disappear!" A warrior yelled at the young man.

The young man, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, looked at the enemy angrily, was extremely unwilling in his heart, gritted his teeth, and shouted: "Let's retreat!" ”

When the rest heard this, they turned and fled behind them.

Zhao Tong saw that the enemy was going to flee, and immediately ordered the sailors to start pursuing, although he didn't want to fight with these natives, but things have reached this point, there is no room for relaxation, if these people escape, it will be a great hidden danger for the expedition.

Although the soldiers wore armor and had a hard time running, those natives were not much better, and the effect of the holy water was becoming more and more obvious.

The muscles on their bodies were burned by the fire, and most of them ran tightly for a few meters before falling to the ground, letting out a heart-rending wail.

Although Zhao Tong didn't know what was going on, he understood that the current situation was in his favor, so he let people ignore the natives who were lying on the ground and continued to chase after those who fled.

The young man staggered forward with his physical pain, not even noticing that his companions were falling one by one.

Now he had only one thought in his mind, and that was to go back to the tribe, to the place where he grew up, as if he could protect himself wherever he went.

But the vision became more and more blurred, and the darkness seemed to engulf itself, until the light disappeared completely before his eyes, and his body fell heavily to the ground.

。。。。。。

When the young man awoke again, he found himself in a strange place, and looked around, and found that his people were huddled together with their hands tied behind their backs.

I looked down at my body and found that I was in the same situation as everyone else.

I struggled a few times, but the rope was very strong, and I couldn't break free at all.

"My child, you're awake!" The old wizard's slightly hoarse voice rang in his ears.

The young man looked back and saw the old wizard leaning against a stake and looking at him.

"Wizard, why are you here!" The young man exclaimed.

The old wizard sighed, "Hey! The De'ang people are finished, the devil in the distance has defeated us, and the De'ang people are about to face death. ”

When the young man heard this, he froze in place as if he had been struck by lightning, and after a long time, he choked up and said, "Wizard, it's all my fault, I should listen to you and take my people away from here." ”

The old wizard shook his head and said, "All this is arranged by the totem spirit. ”

"Have the totemic spirits abandoned us?" The young man asked reluctantly.

The old wizard smiled and said, "We are all children of the totem spirit, how can the gods abandon us, you have to remember, you must believe in the totem spirit at all times, even if the De'ang people are destroyed, it is the totem spirit who wants us to go to another wonderful world." ”

I don't know if the young man listened to the old wizard's words, so he looked around and said, "Wizard, what about the women of our tribe, why didn't you see them." ”

At the mention of this, the old wizard's expression darkened, "They... Alas! ”

Although the old wizard didn't say it explicitly, the young man immediately understood, it was self-evident what a woman could do if she was taken away, and the young man smiled bitterly and sat down on the ground.

Sure enough, after some time, the naked women were driven away by the outsiders and locked in a fence on the side.

Seeing the smiles of those outsiders, the young man felt a strong hatred, not only for those outsiders, but also for his own weakness and powerlessness.

Knowing the outcome of the battle, the Dadahars, soon after the battle, came to the camp with the most valuable gifts of the tribe, expressing their willingness to submit to this powerful tribe.

Wei Ming sat on the wooden pier and looked at the woman in front of him, he was curious about how a woman became the leader.

Because of Wang Lang's machismo, men from all over the Xia Kingdom regarded women as their appendages, and subconsciously believed that a woman's job was to have a child at home and take care of a child, and it was simply impossible to become a tribal leader.

The woman in front of him didn't look very old, he guessed that she was not even thirty years old, with dirty animal skins on her body, and the strange colors on her face made her look very mysterious.

The prey and animal skins they brought, Wei Ming naturally didn't look down on them, but what caught his attention was that among these things, there was a stone of similar color to bronze, which caught his attention.

This stone looks beautiful, although it is only the size of a fist, but it is extremely heavy in the hand, and such a weight is obviously not bronze.

He didn't know what the metal was, but his instincts told him it was a good thing.

Looking at the woman in front of him, Wei Ming said slowly: "I have accepted your gift, and we will protect your tribe." ”

Zhao Tong expressed Wei Ming's words as much as possible in the way of painting, although it was not perfect, but the red fox roughly understood what the other party meant.

The language barrier and communication were also very troublesome, Wei Ming soon lost the mind to talk, and after accepting the submission of the Dadahars, he waved his hand to send off the guests.

After the red fox left with the people, Zhao Tong said, "What about those people?" ”

Wei Ming sneered and said: "What should I do, I have already given them a chance, they want to find death themselves, who can be blamed for this, the men are killed, and the women are given to the brothers." ”

Zhao Tong frowned, he was against this practice, the scale of this tribe is not small, although some died during the battle, but the number of prisoners was at least hundreds, so many people were killed, which made him a little unbearable.

"Captain, I'm afraid this is not good, after all, they are human, and it can be useful to use them as slaves, and if they die, they are just a pile of stinky meat, and they will not do us any good!" Zhao Tong said slowly.

Wei Ming said disappreciatively: "Brother Zhao, you are too kind, what can human beings do, Xia Guo wants obedient people, not these people who resist us, these people are a scourge to stay." ”

"Captain, if we give them another chance, if they are still unwilling to submit, I have nothing to say." Zhao Tong tried his best to fight.

Wei Ming squinted his eyes at Zhao Tong, sneered and said, "Okay, for Brother Zhao's sake, I'll give them a chance, if these stupid things still don't have a long memory, don't blame me for being ruthless." ”

Zhao Tong nodded and said, "I understand." ”

As he spoke, he arched his hand and left Wei Ming's tent.

Coming to the prisoner camp, Zhao Tong looked at these almost inhuman captives, and said to the sailors guarding the captives: "Bring their leader out." ”

Seeing these demons coming towards them, the natives were terrified and moved back away.

But the sailors didn't pay any attention to these ordinary people, but walked straight up to the old wizard, and the two sailors lifted the old wizard from the ground, and dragged him out.

As the young man watched the old wizard being taken away by the enemy, his angry eyes almost popped up, and he roared at these devils.

Zhao Tong looked at this young man and had some impressions of him, in the previous battle, this guy's bravery caused some trouble on his side, and judging by the performance of other people, this kid should have some status in this indigenous tribe.

"Bring him out too!" Zhao Tong pointed at the young man.

The old wizard and the young man were dragged out of the prisoner camp by the sailors, came to Zhao Tong's tent, and threw them on the ground.

"There's nothing to do here, stand down!" Zhao Tong said to the sailor.

"First mate, these people are dangerous, what if they suddenly hurt someone?" One of the sailors said worriedly.

Zhao Tong shook his head and said, "It's okay, it's not easy for these two people to even stand up, there is no danger." ”

The sailors looked at the two men lying on the ground, nodded, and exited the camp.

Zhao Tong walked up to the two of them, slowly squatted down and helped the two of them up and sat down.

None of the three spoke, and the atmosphere was very dreary.

"It wasn't our intention to kill your people before, and if you hadn't attacked us, you wouldn't have died, and it's your fault." Zhao Tong said slowly, although he knew that these two people couldn't understand his words, but when he said this, he felt a lot less guilt in his heart.

The two stared at Zhao Tong, not knowing what the devil who had slaughtered their own people was muttering, but their eyes were full of hatred when they looked at Zhao Tong.

Looking at the eyes of the two, Zhao Tong smiled bitterly.

Sitting on the ground with a twig in his hand, he slowly drew on the ground.

Zhao Tong drew very seriously this time, this was his last chance to fight for these wild people, if they understood it wrongly, maybe hundreds of men in the entire clan would become ghosts under the sword.

Zhao Tong painted and changed, changed and painted, and after repeating it several times, he felt that he should be able to express his meaning clearly, and said to the two: "Look at it, this is your fate in the future." ”

The old wizard stared at the painting on the ground for a long time, his face changed, the meaning of the picture was already obvious, if he did not choose to surrender, the men of the De'ang people would be executed regardless of the old and weak, and although the women could survive, the end would be extremely miserable.

If he chooses to surrender, although he can survive, the picture of the man with his hands tied behind his back and being driven to work makes him very angry in his heart.

But this anger is fleeting, and in this current situation, there is a chance or it is already a fluke, if the totem spirit summons the De'ang people to another world, he knows that it is just his own words to comfort the young man, as the patriarch of the De'ang people, in the face of the destruction of the tribe, his heart is actually more painful than anyone else.

"Rabbits on the stones, let's surrender to them! You will be the leader of the De'ang people from now on, and I will bear this humiliation! The old wizard sighed heavily, as if he looked down on everything.

"Wizard! We are not afraid of death! The young man choked up.

"Hey, live, live to have hope, don't think about revenge, they are too powerful, keep the blood of the tribe, and never forget that you are the descendants of the totem spirit." The old wizard seemed to have come to the end of his life at this moment, and his face was extremely pale.

The young man gritted his teeth and remained silent.

"The rabbit on the stone, look up at me!" The old wizard roared.

The young man looked up at the old wizard.

"Remember what I command, or you will not be a descendant of De'ang." The old wizard said word by word, as if he had exhausted all the strength in his body, and he was panting heavily.

The young man nodded with tears in his eyes.

The old wizard smiled, as if he had fulfilled his wish, looked at Zhao Tong, and nodded at him.
