The vanguard army of the Goshi clan joined up with the Ba clan early, preparing to return to the Pato Plateau.

"Is everything going well?" Gobir asked Elder Bard, who was next to him, "Those two prey have already been transported back to the mountains, right?"

"Well," Elder Bard seemed reluctant to say, "let's wait until we get back to our territory." ”

"What do you mean?" Gobir wanted to follow, "Elder, why don't you want to give me an affirmative answer?"

Bard stopped talking, squinting his eyes and looking at the sunset in the west, the god who guided them in their direction.

Gobir felt that something was wrong, and a simple answer was not difficult, why would Elder Bard hide it from him?

He came to the rear and quietly asked Ge Xiu,

"What happened to those two prey?"

"What do you mean?" Goshu was confused by the sudden question, "What's wrong with the prey?"

"Didn't you see them when they escorted their prey back to the mountains?"

"No, I've been on the front line with you!" Goshu was also taken aback, "Did something happen?"

"I don't know," Gobirle looked at Elder Bard's back in front of him, "but I always had a bad premonition!"

"Brother..."

Before Gossiu could finish asking, Gobir returned to Bard's side.

"Elder, we are all warriors who can give their lives for the mountain tribes, why don't you want to share everything you know with us?" Gobir asked, controlling his emotions.

"Gobir, everything you've done is for the sake of the mountain tribe, right?" Elder Bard turned his head and looked at Gobir with a deep gaze.

"Of course!" Gobir straightened his chest, "my heart beats for all the mountaineers!"

"However, some people don't think so..."Elder Bard had a serious expression, "Under the light, there will also be darkness, and shadows are everywhere, Gobir!"

"What do you mean?" the big man struggled to comprehend the Elder's words, "Has evil invaded the mountains?"

"I'm afraid that the evil thoughts have not arrived, but the country will be in turmoil first..."Elder Bard sighed, he seemed to have expected what would happen when he returned to the Pato Plateau.

Gobir was confused, and every conversation with the elder made him very difficult, after all, he was just a warrior who used his strength to solve problems.

"Brother, did you ask?" Goxiu rode forward on the gray wolf, "What did the elder say?"

"I don't know," Gobir shook his head, "the words of this wise man are incomprehensible to us. ”

"I'll ride back on the gray wolf first. Ge Xiu's eyes suddenly became sharp, "He must be hiding something from us!"

"Gossi," Gobir glanced at his brother, "remember, everything you do is for the sake of the mountain tribe, understand?"

Ge Xiu and his brother stared at each other, and the thoughts in their eyes were clearly inconsistent.

"Power is the mountains, and the mountains are the strength. Goshu looked at his brother and said, "Everything I do is for power!"

After speaking, Ge Xiu rode the gray wolf, left the army from the side, and ran alone to the place where the sun went down. Gobir watched the back of Goshu from behind, this younger brother who he had brought up by himself felt so strange for the first time...

And at this moment, the Pato Plateau, under the calm, hides a huge crisis.

The young warriors of the three major clans all went on the march, and basically all that remained in the camps of the tribes were women and young children, and the Ba clan was no exception.

When the sun sets, the Grand Chieftain Baya sits alone in a large tent under the Crescent Peak, which is the royal family of the leaders of the past generations.

It was quiet, there was no one, not even the slightest wind could be felt. There were only a few small oil lamps in the entire tent that gave a faint light, and they couldn't even illuminate every corner of the big tent.

Suddenly, three masked men burst into the tent, scimitars in their hands, staring at the great leader.

"Who are you?" Baya was not very surprised by their arrival, "why don't you go out with the army, go to the territory of the king of the mountain!"

The three strong men did not answer, and directly raised their weapons and rushed up, wanting to kill the big leader.

Baya immediately drew an iron spear from behind the throne, and with a single swing, he broke the weapon in the hand of the man on the left, and then stabbed at the masked man in the middle, who couldn't dodge and was stabbed directly in the right arm. Two masked men grabbed the iron spear, and the third masked man leapt forward, raising his scimitar and slashing at Baya. Baya immediately drew his right hand and stepped forward to grab the masked man's hand, but the blade still scratched his arm. Baya kicked the masked man away.

When the three men saw that Baya was bleeding profusely from his hands, they stopped attacking and fled from the tent with each other in their arms.

Baya could not see their faces clearly due to the enemy's face covering, but it was certain that they were definitely alpine people.

"Poison?" Baya looked at the blood flowing from the wound too black, and realized that the blade had been stained with poison.

He immediately ran out of the tent and ran to the cave at the foot of the mountain, where there were sorcerers who could help him detoxify.

However, the faster he moved, the faster his body became numb, and in the end he didn't even know where he had gone, and his steps grew heavier...

"Baya, Baya..."

"Dad... Dad..."

"Baya, wake up!"

The Grand Leader had been unconscious for an unknown amount of time, but he gradually felt the call of Elder Bard and his youngest son, Bass, in his ears. Hearing their voices made Baya struggle to regain consciousness and slowly open his eyes.

"Baya, are you okay?"

In front of him, the two most trusted people were staring at him, which made Baya feel very relieved.

"You're back," Baya struggled to spit out a greeting.

"Is it 'them'?" Bard asked softly, frowning.

Baya didn't want to talk about it now, he had more things to ask,

"Did you bring that hunter back?"

Bard's expression became embarrassed, and he didn't know how to answer his big leader now.

"That's right," Baya immediately realized, "My life was saved by a wizard, right?"

"Yes, if someone sees you lying at the mouth of the Spirit Stone Cave, they will immediately inform the wizard that they have rescued you. Bud said simply, "I didn't expect them to really..."

"Alright," Baya sat up with difficulty, "life is back, and your body will recover soon, so go back quickly." ”

Baya looked around, there were only the three of them in the entire Spirit Stone Cave, and the masked wizard sitting in the distance in a pile of strange flowers and plants.

"Thank you for saving my life. Baya walked up to the wizard and bent down in thanksgiving.

The wizard did not speak, but sat cross-legged on the ground, motionless.

Lingshi Cave is a magical place, there is no natural light in it, but there is a bush of flowers and plants that can detoxify all kinds of poisons. The wizard is a man of few words, and few people see him speak, but at a glance, he can see what disease the person who came to the Lingshi Cave is suffering from, and use the strange flowers and plants in the cave to make an antidote, as long as the injured person has a breath of breath, he will definitely be saved.

"Let's go. Baya turned to the hole, "There's still a lot of work to be done." ”

Takayama's army had returned to the Pato Plateau, and everyone was restless, for rumors of prey had grown, and everyone could not wait for the Great Leader to announce the great news.

However, Elder Bard has not responded to everyone's petition for a long time, and Crescent Peak has been closed for some time.

"Why doesn't the big leader see anyone!" Gobiel led several young generals of the Ge clan and yelled in front of the camp of the Ba clan, "It's been a few days, we need to know what to do with the prey!"

Gobir lived up to the name "Abyssal Roar", and his voice had reached the large tent inside the camp, where the Grand Leader Baya sat alone.

"If I don't get any reply today, I'm going to start a mountain meeting!" Gobir was furious.

"Did you initiate the Mountain Meeting to let the ancestors see your arrogant appearance?" Suddenly, Elder Bard appeared in front of the camp gate, he was still calm, "Gobir, the big leader wants to see you, come with me." ”

Gobir didn't know why the big leader wanted to see him alone, he looked back at the clansmen behind him, everyone was confused, it seemed that there was something secret...

He followed Elder Bard into the big tent, and there was only the Grand Leader Baya sitting inside.

"The big leader's face doesn't seem to be good," Gobir clearly saw, "has something happened to us these days on our expedition?"

"Gobir, is everything you do for the sake of the mountain tribe?" the Great Leader asked again.

"Of course!" replied Gobir, affirmatively, "everything I do, for the sake of the mountains!"

"When the army went out, someone came to assassinate the great chief. Bard told Gobir the truth, "These people..."

"You doubt me?" Gobir was disgruntled. He had always been loyal to Takayama, but now he was under suspicion.

"Look what that is. The chief pointed to the ground beside him, where there were two broken scimitars.

It's—" Gobir's eyes widened in disbelief, "Machete..."

In the entire mountain tribe, the Ba clan is good at using iron spears, the Ao clan is good at whips, and only the Ge clan can use knives, sticks and other iron tools. The weapons scattered on the ground now mean that some of the people of the Goe clan have come to the great chief's tent with weapons.

"I see. Gobir gritted his teeth and said, "I will definitely investigate immediately and catch the criminals! The Gobi clan will never allow any traitors!"

"The chief of the Goe clan, 'Abyssal Roar' Gobir, things are far from as simple as you think. The Grand Leader Baya said calmly.

"What do you mean? Are there any other traitors?"

"The blades of these weapons are poisonous!"

"What?" Gobir couldn't believe it, he crouched down and picked up his weapon to look at it, "How is that possible..."

"We don't want to admit it, but that's the way it is. Elder Bud sighed, "Mountain tribes, no one will use poison, do you understand, what does this mean?"

"Unforgivable!" Gobir clenched his fists and slammed them to the ground, unable to vent his anger.

"Danger is looming," said the Grand Leader Baya, looking at Gobir, "and you will be the key to changing the mountains!"
