Chapter 24: Tearing the Skin

I thought about it, but I sat quietly by the campfire, drinking soup and eating barbecue and dry food.

The dry food of the Chinese people is a bit similar to steamed buns, but it is not a refined grain like wheat, and it tastes a little rough, but their attitude towards this food is far more important than those fragrant barbecues, and the quantity is not much, and they have to give me a few even.

The soup is a tea soup made with poorly prepared tea leaves and some stir-fried rice to relieve the greasy taste of the fat.

Compared with the diet of the Linhu clan, it is more reasonable for the Chinese to eat, I chatted with the second elder of the Chinese while eating, and as for Jing Ke, he was guarding next to me with a cold face.

But he should still eat, and the Chinese are hospitable, and there is no shortage of food for him.

Talking about the harvest of coming to Butterfly Valley this time, Tuo Lao and Que Lao couldn't help but show off, took out a bunch of elixirs they had picked, and communicated with me, saying that this medicine is for treating a certain disease, and that medicine is for treating a certain injury.

Speaking of regrets, they told me that after a few days here, they just didn't see the legendary baobab forest, which is really regrettable.

As soon as I heard this, I quietly took out the baobab seeds that I had left before from the Qiankun bag, kept three, and brought the rest to the second elder.

Seeing the round seeds in my hand, the old magpie was stunned for a moment, and immediately became excited, trembling his beard and said, "Thisβ€”this is ......."

I nodded and said, "This is the seed of the baobab tree." ”

Elder Magpie reverently stretched out his hand, took one, carefully examined the gloss on the surface of the seed, and his breath became heavy.

And Tuo Lao also looked very excited, he looked at me and said, "Where did you find these seeds?" ”

I said that I had been here for a few days, and that I had not stumbled into itβ€”that the seeds of the baobab tree are difficult to grow, but these are the most vigorous of life, and after sacrifices and blessings, they should be able to take root and sprout in your place; However, when growing, it needs to be tanned with a liquid with a high degree of acidity, and the specific method is ......

I explained to them what I learned from Mr. Yu Qianer.

In fact, the baobab forest near the ancient tree of life is an alien species, and its birth and birth are actually the work of the old man Yu Qianer.

Hearing my explanation, although I don't know whether it's true or not, Tuo Lao and Que Lao also know that I am an expert, so they hurriedly called Long Yun and asked him to help me remember it.

After saying all the things that need attention, I handed over these seeds to the second elder, and the two of them were excited, and the old man couldn't help but say: "Lu Yan, your knowledge is so profound, it seems that you are like a divine envoy sent by heaven - our clan also has people like you, if you have the will, why don't you go to our clan to communicate for a while, and also guide our planting ......"

Hearing Elder Que's invitation, my heart was beating wildly, and I was about to answer, but Jing Ke, who was still in the shadows, interjected: "Lu Yan is a member of our Linhu clan, and all his actions need to follow the wishes of the patriarch. ”

These words were said so hard that the atmosphere suddenly became cold.

The Chinese people all looked at me, and under the support of these people, I was a little more courageous, and said without humility or arrogance: "Jing Ke, I only stayed in the Linhu clan for three days, when did I become a member of the Linhu clan?" ”

As soon as I said this, Jing Ke's eyes narrowed suddenly, and they were as dazzling as broken glass shards.

He stared at me and said word by word: "Divine Doctor Lu, that is to say, do you think you are not from the Linhu clan?" ”

I felt the heavy killing intent on him, but at this time, Long Yun and Long Yan were on the left and right, protecting me, and Que Lao said in surprise: "Oh, so Lu Yan, you haven't been in Linhu for a few days?" ”

I nodded, yes.

I was answering Que Lao's words, and Jing Ke thought that I was denying his reasonableness, and immediately became extremely cold.

He straightened up, looked around, and said to the Chinese people around him: "Lu Yan is the servant of Luo Xiaobei, a guest of the Linhu clan, that is, her slave, Luo Xiaobei is currently a guest of my Linhu clan, and the Linhu clan has the responsibility to ensure the safety of her property, including her slaves, anyone who dares to provoke the Linhu clan's right to defend their property means war!" ”

He said sonorously, looked around, and finally his eyes fell on Long Yun, who was led by the Chinese, and said word by word: "So, war, are you ready?" ”

Hearing Jing Ke's solemn words, Long Yun fell silent.

At this time, Tuo Lao looked at me and said to me, "What he said, is that really the case? ”

I shook my head and smiled bitterly: "That's just Luo Xiaobei's nonsense, the real situation is not like this, I'm not Luo Xiaobei's servant, we're just walking together......"

Jing Ke interrupted me without hesitation and said sharply, "When Luo Xiaobei introduced you as her servant, did you object?" ”

I shook my head and said no.

Jing Ke sneered and said, "In that case, what else do you have to say?" ”

If you want to add to the crime, there is no excuse, since this guy is unreasonable, I really have nothing to justify, I am angry at Luo Xiaobei's arbitrary assertion at the beginning, and angry at the insidious cunning of the Linhu clan, seeing Long Yun's face cloudy, I can't help but smile, and say Since this is the case, then I will go back with you.

I have a good impression of the Chinese people, especially Tuo Lao and Que Lao, two masters who are really obsessed with medical skills, and I don't want to bring war to them because of me.

I politely put down the scoop of soup, then nodded to Elder Tuo and Elder Que, and got up to leave.

At this time, Long Yun spoke: "Lu Yan, wait a minute." ”

Jing Ke reached out and grabbed my arm, and when he heard this, he turned his head and said impatiently, "What else is going on?" ”

Long Yun said calmly: "Compared to you who are the flesh butcher, I prefer Lu Yan's words. ”

Jing Ke raised his eyebrows, and then said, "Oh, you mean, you chose war, right?" ”

Long Yuan said calmly: "War or not, it's not something that you can say as a little warrior, and it's not something I can decide; But I can say to you frankly that in this land, the 10,000 soldiers of our Chinese nationality are absolutely not afraid of any threat, including your war. ”

Facing Long Yun's pride, Jing Ke's face became gloomy, and he said word by word: "Are you ready to stand up for him?" ”

Long Yun glanced at the second elder, and then said, "I respect Lu Yan's personal wishes. ”

Everyone's eyes converged on me at this moment.

But I was silent.

I knew that once I opened my mouth, countless blood would flow down, and even if I had the protection of the Chinese, I would be nothing more than a lakeside clan, even if I had a little more freedom.

I'm not a vassal of any race, I'm who I am.

As Luo Xiaobei said, this is not my world, and one day, I will leave.

After pondering for a while, I bowed to Long Yun and the second elder of the Chinese clan, and then said, "Thank you for drawing your sword and helping, I still want to go back and make it clear to the Linhu clan, it will be better." ”

My words surprised everyone, and the second elder of the Chinese clan stared at me with round eyes, then looked at me and said, "Lu Yan, you have to believe in the Hua clan, we can guarantee your safety." ”

Long Yun also opened his mouth and said: "Lu Yan, you don't have to worry too much, the evil wolf of the Linhu clan doesn't have the courage to challenge the tiger." ”

I still insisted, shook my head and said, "No, thank you for your help." ”

When the Chinese people saw me like this, they all shook their heads and sighed, and Long Yun said to me: "Since you insist, then we have nothing to say, but thank you for your generosity, the Chinese will always owe you a piece of affection." ”

And Jing Ke was much more arrogant, laughing, and saying that you nosy guys, are you confused?

Walk!

He shouted at me, and I was silent, waved my hand at the Chinese, and then quietly followed Jing Ke and left.

Even with the assurance, Jing Ke was still on full alert, and it was not until he left the Chinese camp for a few miles that he slowed down, turned to look at me, and said with a sneer: "Congratulations on making a very correct decision, because if you betray our race, the Soul Chasing Blue Bee Needle that falls on your body will pierce your heart and turn you into a corpse." ”

Since I had torn my face, I didn't hesitate any longer, but asked, "Why did you do this to me?" ”

Jing Ke said: "This is the order of the patriarch. ”

I asked, "Why?" ”

Jing Ke thought for a moment and said, "There is a lack of doctors in the clan, so you must be retained." ”

I said what if I didn't want to?

He sneered, saying that the Linhu clan has a thousand ways to make you willing, but before that, we still hope that you can take the initiative to blend in; Passive slacking off is not a good thing, right?

I nodded and said okay, I got it.

I didn't say anything more, and Jing Ke led me on my way deeper into the woods, and as he walked, he said, "Once again, don't act rashly, I don't want to go back with a corpse." ”

I didn't speak, but silently pondered in my heart.

After walking for more than an hour, we came to a narrow canyon, I saw a white shadow in the distance, and my heart moved, and at this time, Jing Ke also felt the danger, and said to me: "It's those people, the people who ambushed my Linhu clan, you be careful, I ......"

Before he could finish his words, he was empty, and the whole person actually fell towards a trap somewhere underground.

Yes......

Jing Ke fell down with a sharp scream, and I was just about to move, when someone next to me suddenly threatened in a low voice: "Don't move!" ”
