Chapter 42: Accidental
I slept soundly.
When he woke up, Ye Xi felt relaxed, the pain in his body disappeared, his vision and hearing were restored, and the buzzing in his head stopped.
A cold mass pressed heavily on his chest, Ye Xi got up, picked up the Jiaojiao that was sleeping on his chest and put it on the ground.
Jiaojiao opened his eyes, swam at Ye Xi's feet, and crawled up Ye Xi's ankles stickily, and then hung on his neck and didn't move.
The little guy grows very fast, and a small snake that was the thickness of his thumb when he first saw it has only been a month, and it is already as thick as a wrist.
When I came out of the cave, I hit a cone.
Ye Xi said hello with a smile.
The cone looked Ye Xi up and down, and said worriedly: "Why don't you lie down for a while, Wu said you have to sleep more." ”
Ye Xi opened his arms and showed him: "Look, I'm completely fine. ”
There was still worry on the cone's face: "Yes, Wu said that it will take half a month, don't be reckless." ”
"I'm so good!" Ye Xi changed the subject, "By the way, how long have I been asleep?"
"Just one night!" cone emphasized, emphasizing the number one in particular.
As soon as he thought of Ye Xi's bleeding appearance yesterday, he couldn't help but worry for a while, how could it be so serious that he could just sleep.
Ye Xi scratched his hair, no wonder the cone was so excited, it turned out that he had only slept all night, and he felt so full of physical energy...... He thought he had slept for two days and two nights.
He remembered that Wu said that it would take about half a month to recover, but he was really feeling good now, and he didn't feel any discomfort at all.
It should be the credit of the different flowers, right?
By the way, I don't know how Putai is now, have you woken up?
Thinking of this, Ye Xi couldn't stand still: "Cone, I'll go see Uncle Pu first." Without waiting for a reply, he hurried inside.
"Hey!" cried out briefly, sighed helplessly as he looked at his back, and then smiled again.
Although he was still worried in his heart, he was relieved to see Ye Xi regain his spirits, and after Ye Xi's figure disappeared, the cone turned his head and walked out, eager to tell the clansmen the good news of Ye Xi's recovery.
Putai Cave.
Ye Xi was startled as soon as he stepped in.
I saw a small stone cave, except for Pu Tai, the chief, Wu and Yong, all the high-level leaders of Tu Mountain.
Pu Tai sat half-sitting against the stone wall with a sallow face, his eyes were drooping, and the other three were all solemn, frowning and looking at the void fixedly, not knowing what they were thinking, and the whole room was enveloped in a heavy atmosphere.
Hearing the movement, several people looked up.
Seeing Ye Xi standing at the door looking at them.
Several people were surprised and said in unison: "Ye Xi?"
The heavy atmosphere suddenly disappeared.
Ye Xi smiled, first glanced at Pu Tai, and saw that although he looked depressed, he didn't look like his life was in danger, and he was relieved.
"Wu, Chief, Uncle Pu, Uncle Yong, you are all here. Ye Xi greeted them one by one.
Yong frowned disapprovingly: "Why do you get up like this, don't sleep for a while?"
"I'm fine. Without waiting for them to continue to blame, Ye Xi looked at Pu Tai, "Uncle Pu, what do you think?"
Seeing that Ye Xi's eyes were full of worry, Pu Tai deliberately raised his voice and pretended to be full of anger: "It's okay, what is such a little injury, your Uncle Pu and I have suffered more seriously before, and I haven't come back alive." ”
Hearing Pu Tai's words, Yong, who was sitting next to him, glanced at him silently. If you brag and don't make drafts, if you are hurt more severely, will you be able to come back alive?
Ye Xi understood that Pu Tai was comforting him, and his heart was moved, he wanted to say something but didn't know what to say, as if it was hypocritical to say anything.
So he paused for a while, and held back a sentence: "...... Uncle Pu, thanks to you yesterday, you were so heroic yesterday. ”
Pu Tai remembered the picture of himself being beaten by that fierce ** yesterday, and laughed dryly: "Haha, no, no." ”
Seeing Pu Tai's embarrassed face, Ye Xi immediately understood that he had said the wrong thing, and added: "That fierce bird is so powerful, Uncle Pu, you dare to fight him, it's already very powerful!"
The chief smiled: "Ye Xi, you don't know yet, the fierce bird you met yesterday is a pure-blooded fierce beast, and its strength is equivalent to that of a third-level warrior." It's amazing that one of you has been fighting it for so long, and that one of you can kill it with a bow and arrow. ”
Speaking of this, the chief and the rest of the people were amazed, and Pu Tai said that Ye Xi, a trialist who was not even a reserve soldier, was able to seize the opportunity, and the thought of shooting the eye of the fierce bird with a poisonous arrow, and finally succeeded in killing it, had to be amazed.
But the risks involved are also significant.
Pu Tai said earnestly: "Ye Xi, this time is also a coincidence, you just found the poison of the black bone grass, if you don't find it, or don't shoot it in the eye, then aren't you dead?" So the next time you encounter this situation, you can escape, don't be stupid." ”
"Uncle Pu, didn't you know that you couldn't beat me but still wanted to save me. Ye Xi bared his teeth and smiled, "So, let's be each other." ”
The people present were stunned for a moment, and then burst out laughing.
Pu Tai smiled and patted his forehead: "It seems that I have no position to talk about you." ”
The chief laughed and said, "You two, you are so impulsive......"
As soon as he thought of the fierce beast that still exuded a powerful aura when it fell to the ground, the chief was terrified. Looking at the scene, you can know how fierce the battle was at that time, maybe just a little bit, and neither of them will be able to come back.
Ye Xi was puzzled: "Has such a powerful beast appeared near our tribe before?"
A pure-blooded fierce beast, but it is equivalent to a third-level warrior, a small Tushan tribe, the most powerful warrior is only second-level, if it appears often, then Tushan should have been destroyed a long time ago.
As soon as he said this, Ye Xi sensitively noticed that the atmosphere in the stone cave had become heavy again.
The smile on the chief's face faded, and he frowned and said slowly, "Generally speaking, pure-blooded beasts will not appear near the tribe. ”
Generally speaking?
Yong explained, "Because the land near our tribe, no, the area east of the Black Ridge Mountains is very barren, so the powerful beasts generally like to live in the area west of the Black Ridge Mountains. ”
"Why are you barren here?"
"Come to think of it, most of us have never seen strange flowers and plants in their lives. ”
"There are a lot of exotic flowers and plants in the west?"
"I don't know the specifics, anyway, it's more than us, the thirst for exotic flowers and plants is not lower than ours, so the powerful beasts are unwilling to come to us. ”
In that case, why did that pure-blooded beast abandon the east and come here, is it the only one......
"Is it not a coincidence that this ferocious bird appeared?"
The chief pondered for a moment, "Maybe it is, maybe it isn't. ”
Ye Xi: "What if not?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was a little silent.
Pu Tai said abruptly: "If it is not ...... That is, there is a great upheaval coming. ”
Ye Xi is in turmoil, big turmoil?
The chief comforted, "Don't worry, even if the sky falls, we will be supported by our old people." ”
Wu, who had been silent, suddenly spoke: "I will divinate once today, and the hunting team and the gathering team will not leave the tribe for the past two days." ”
Tu Shan Wu is a blessing witch, the main blessing, divination is not his strong point, not only the witch power is consumed, but the results are often very vague, so basically not much divination.
This time I decided to divination, and it seems that I was really uneasy.
Ye Xi slowly walked out of the black cave and stood at the mouth of the cave, looking thoughtfully at the jungle in front of him.
A mountain wind blew through the jungle, and the leaves rattled, and blew in front of him, bringing up the strands of his hair and the corners of his clothes.
He remembered the blood-colored dandelions, the herd of behemoths, and the vague conversations of the Fire Suisilister tribe he had encountered on the way to Kurosawa.
My heart pounded, and a bad premonition came to my heart.
