Chapter 1023: A dilemma

The bitter cold wind blew across the desolate northwest plateau and raged unstoppably on the tundra, leaving everyone with no choice but to wrap up their clothes and walk forward.

"Master!" The four of them ran to meet everyone, and Hong'er ran to the front, shouting happily.

The cold wind is like a knife, leaving a plateau mark on Hong'er's delicate face, her smile is as bright as the sun on the plateau, the Gesang flowers on the field, all the anxiety and troubles at the beginning of the day are all dissipated with the cold wind the moment she sees Hong'er's smiling face.

Hong'er ran to the front and looked at Bai Yue, Lianxing and Duo Ling, laughing and crying again.

Hong'er cried so much that the pear blossoms brought rain, which made people feel distressed, although she didn't know why she was crying, but it made everyone teary-eyed.

"Why are you here now? I thought it was ...... I thought ......" Hong'er was so choked up that she couldn't speak.

Tianchu understood Hong'er's mood, they had come too late, not to mention that the puppet worm was still there, otherwise everyone would think that Tianchu had defeated them.

It's really hard for Yun Zhen and the four of them to worry about them day and night, and they are still with a group of people, and it is estimated that the mood is a hundred times worse than at the beginning of the day.

Seeing that they were all there at the beginning of the day, and they were alive and well, it was undoubtedly the thing that made Yun Zhen the happiest, and both sides had too many questions to ask, so they took this opportunity to rest on the spot for a while.

When I got closer, I found that the herdsmen's clothes were stained with wormwood powder, rubbed on the dirty woolen coats, and no matter how the cold wind tore them, they were firmly stuck to their bodies.

Don't ask, Tianchu also understands it, because the wind and sand here are big, he told Yun Zhen that the method of protecting the village doesn't work, and under the premise that the village can't be protected at all, he can only protect people, and it is helpless to take them away, what makes Tianchu happy is that Yun Zhen is good at observation, flexible and thoughtful, and if he is his own, he may not do better than him.

When they heard that the mother worm was dead and the puppet worm was still there, they were all dumbfounded, and it was like stepping on a cockroach in the house and finding that there were cockroaches everywhere in the house, and they didn't know where the nest was.

Anyway, it's already here, and you can only solve the crisis of the East Girl Country before you go to explore the truth about the immortality of the puppet worms.

"What are you going to do with them?" Tianchu pointed at those herdsmen with his eyes and asked Yun Zhendao.

"I haven't thought about it yet, so I'm looking forward to Master coming and giving me ideas, to be honest, if you don't come again, I really don't know what to do next, I can't take so many people to such a dangerous place in Dongnu Country, right?" Yun Zhen said helplessly.

Tian Chu glanced at the hundreds of herdsmen and sighed, frowned, there were many people holding lambs, people in sheepskins and sheep huddled together and could not be separated, a few sheepdogs were still dutifully guarding the big sheep that followed, a large group of people and sheep were chaotic like refugees.

The village is gone, and then there is no one in it, and it won't take long to cross the snow-capped mountains, the mountains are high and snowy, and the climate is harsh, it is simply too difficult for these people, take 10,000 steps back and say, even if you cross the snow-capped mountains, and then what?

The Eastern Woman Kingdom has been occupied by demons, and there is no place for these people at all.

Tianchu is really worried, these people can't take it, let alone stay, Tianchu can't give them a way to live, but they can't leave it alone.

At this time, a chubby little boy held a piece of dry tsampa in his hand, shyly rubbed to Tianchu's side, and carefully poked Tianchu's shoulder with his fleshy little hand.

Tianchu was talking to Yun Zhen when he felt someone touching him, and when he turned his head, he saw a young face with two clusters of plateau red, blinking his eyes and looking at him shyly.

"Little brother, what's your name?" Tian Chu smiled softly at the little boy, raised his hand and touched his head.

"My name is Batu and I'm five years old." Tianchu's intimate action made the little boy bold all of a sudden, showing a naughty smile, and even hid Tianchu's hand to make trouble with him.

"Batuu." At this time, a middle-aged woman shouted from the crowd.

When the little boy named Batu heard this, he answered, put away his playfulness, walked to Tianchu's side in a serious manner, and handed the piece of tsamba that was as dry as wood to Tianchu.

"This is what Grandpa asked me to give to Uncle Daochang, and Grandpa said to thank you for saving your life." After speaking, the little boy put the tsamba into Tianchu's arms, and knelt down with a plop and was about to swallow his head.

Tianchu hurriedly supported the little boy, picked him up and put him on his lap, and then stuffed the piece of tsamba back into the child's hand: "Uncle Taoist don't need to thank you, this is what we are willing, eat this tsamba batu, thank you grandpa for me." ”

Batu swallowed his saliva while holding the tsamba, then turned his head to look at his family, and shook his head vigorously with a frustrated expression: "Batu can't eat it, this is for Uncle Daoist." ”

It can be seen that Batu wants to eat this tsamba very much, but he does not dare to disobey the instructions of his family, and his little brows are wrinkled, and he is very embarrassed.

At the beginning of the day, he couldn't help but be happy when he saw Batu's small appearance, and picked him up and walked to the place where his family was.

Seeing Tianchu coming, the herdsmen got up one after another, made way for Tianchu, and greeted Tianchu, Tianchu felt uncomfortable with this politeness, they regarded Tianchu as a savior, but what could Tianchu do to respond to their respect, and couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

The crowd naturally moved out of the way, and Batu felt like a hero, and he was very proud.

At the end of the crowd, Batu's family also stood up, Batu's mother ran over, blushed and kept apologizing to Tianchu, and hugged Batu, at this time an old man with a hunched back, white beard and white hair, and good spirits greeted him.

"You're the master of these little Dao Leaders, right? It's kind of looking forward to you. ”

From the conversation, it was learned that this old man was the head of the village they first saw, the oldest and most prestigious person in the area, known as the hunchback Dorjee.

In fact, it was just a pretense to let his grandson Batu come to send the tsampa, this hunchbacked Dorjee actually just wanted to test Tianchu's character, this old guy's eyes were more tricky than an eagle, and he was secretly observing Tianchu to see if he really wanted to help them, because he still wanted to discuss something with Tianchu.

The hunchbacked Dorjee said that at the beginning of the day they were messengers sent by the heavens to save them, and when the demons (puppet insects) came to attack them, Yunzhen and they passed by and saved them with magical herbs.

The reason why they had to leave the village was only because there were no herbs to protect them, and at first Yun Zhen's idea was to move away with the entire village and move to a village that had not been attacked by the puppet insects for a while, as long as the puppet worm mother at the beginning of the day died, they could go back.

Unexpectedly, the puppet worm followed them into the new village, just one village after another, and finally took all the villagers from the only three villages in their place.
