In the forest.

The warriors of the three tribes, shirtless and armed with stone or bone knives, slashed down the giant trees with great force.

Amid the flying of sawdust, the giant trees crunched and groaned, falling like giants, bringing up a trail of fallen leaves and thin branches.

Whenever a giant tree falls, several ordinary people will rush up. They either collect vines entwined around the tree, or they wield blades and cut off excess branches from the tree.

After the treatment, the men worked together and shouted together to pull the cleaned trunks to the river.

At this moment, on the banks of the river are gathering craftsmen from three tribes, who are responsible for the final process. They put the trunks to the end to make them more suitable for rafting, and then tied the trunks tightly to each other with vines, one by one.

Originally, the river was very dangerous, and water monsters would come out and attack people at any time.

But now Jiaojiao dived into the river, its huge body slowly swimming in the dark river water, and the powerful aura of the barbarian beast shocked all the water monsters in the river, and they didn't dare to come up at all.

Everyone is busy in full swing.

Time was tight, the flames were spreading too fast, and they needed to make too many rafts.

The combined population of the three tribes was more than a thousand people, plus the huge war beasts, and a large group of one-horned scale horses that had saved them......

Ye Xi had calculated the time before, if the raft making process did not go well, the fire might have burned by the time it was all done.

So before cutting down the tree, he drew a semicircle in the woods with a tooth knife with the diameter of the riverbank. Let everyone cut down the trees near the semicircle first, and then slowly cut them in, and finally clean up the trees within the semicircle and use it as a fire barrier.

The children of the three tribes were not idle, and all of them helped to clean up the turf and lichen and combustible materials such as dead leaves from the barrier to ensure that the fire did not ignite.

Minutes and seconds passed.

By the time the first raft was launched, you could already smell the faint smell of smoke blowing from the north.

By the time the tenth raft entered the water, several creatures had escaped from the north, sparsely passing through the woods.

"Quick! Speed up, get all the rafts ready before the beast tide comes!" said Chief Tu Shan, chopping wood.

Everyone gritted their teeth, and the movements of their hands were faster.

Amid the growing smell of smoke and the rushing of the beast tide getting closer and closer, the rafts went into the water one by one.

At this moment a group of men riding wild cattle and wearing horns came running from the north.

This is the Oxhorn Tribe, a relatively weak small tribe that lives in the southern part of the Tushan Valley, and usually does not deal much with the three tribes, except for a few words to each other during the Kurosawa Fair.

When the Horned Chief saw them, he grabbed the bull running under his crotch, turned around and hurriedly said, "The fire is about to burn, why don't you run quickly, what are you doing?"

This horned chief is not a bad man, but at the risk of being caught up by the fire, he deliberately turned around and called them.

"We're not running, we're going to walk from the river!" replied a Leaf Tribal warrior who was chopping trees.

Ye Xi couldn't bear to bury them all in the fire, so he specially came over to persuade Chief Niujiao: "Don't go forward, the fire in the west is spreading too fast, and before you can run to the south, there is no way to escape." ”

Chief Niujiao looked Ye Xi up and down, and when he saw the clothes made by Jiugong on Ye Xi's body, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he suddenly said, "Are you the Lord Ye Xi?"

Ye Xi was stunned, "I'm Ye Xi." ”

Chief Horn's expression changed immediately.

He gritted his teeth, ran to the front and shouted loudly to order the team to stop, and then jumped down from the back of the wild bull and bowed his head to Ye Xi.

"The Niujiao tribe has seen Lord Ye Xi, and our Niujiao tribe is willing to follow you. ”

Ye Xi paused and asked strangely, "Why are you willing to follow me?"

The Oxhorn Chief's face turned red, and he looked at Ye Xi excitedly like an idol: "You don't know yet, the news that you rescued the wolf tooth slave in the Black Ze tribe has spread!

The Kurosawa tribe also participates in the Red Grass Festival, which means that the Kurosawa people also have people from various tribes in the Black Ridge Mountains among their companions, and they can't hide any big news.

Now at least the high-ranking people of all tribes have heard Ye Xi's name.

The Kurosawa tribe is the overlord of the Black Ridge Mountains, and Ye Xi was able to forcefully rescue the wolf tooth slave in its territory, and asked the black Zewu to erase the slave mark. How can such a big thing not cause a sensation?

Everyone speculated that Ye Xi was a legendary fifth-level warrior.

Those who are more well-informed also know that Ye Xi has been to the other side of the Snow Mountain Range and has successfully returned. Some even speculated whether Tu Shan's rise was also related to him.

Everyone worships the strong, let alone such a legendary and powerful warrior.

And judging from the fact that he saved the wolf tooth slaves and the slave policy he implemented in Tushan, this fifth-level warrior was undoubtedly merciful.

How can a strong and benevolent man not be worthy of follow?

Now the Horn Tribe is facing an existential crisis, and judging from the posture of the three tribes, it seems that they can escape from this disaster.

Facing such a scorching gaze of worship, Ye Xi was a little uncomfortable and reminded: "Don't be stunned, let's make a raft together." ”

"Alright, let's get started!" said the Horned Chief, blushing.

On the other side, the Kurosawa tribe, which had just been talked about, was being devastated by the fire spreading from the west.

They were unlucky, because the tribe was located in the northwest corner, and they were the first to encounter the northern fires. The Kurosawa tribe faced the swamp to the south and mountains on the back, so the flames quickly climbed down the mountain.

They didn't have time to clean up in the thick smoke, and hurriedly fled with their people.

But just as they ran out of the danger zone, they encountered a second wave of meteors. The west followed at once, and they could only run southeast.

After this toss, now the slaves and ordinary people of the Kurosawa tribe have been thrown into the fire because they can't keep up with the team.

The population of the entire Kurosawa tribe is less than one-third of its original size.

And despite this embarrassment, many of the small tribes fleeing to the west still choose to follow the Kurosawa tribe far behind.

Although they were afraid of the Kurosawa tribe, they had to admit that it was powerful, and in such a terrible disaster, Mu Qiang's psychology made them panic and involuntarily follow the Kurosawa team.

At this moment, Chief Kurosawa was riding on a purebred beast-level cheetah, leading the team to flee forward.

The flames were already close to them, and the constant smoke made his throat burn like fire.

He knew that the small tribes were following their ranks, but he didn't care, because they didn't pose much of a threat to them.

Now all he wanted was a heavy rain to put out the terrible fire.

In the thick smoke and darkness, Chief Kurosawa, who was sitting on the cheetah and running at the front, suddenly stared at him and recognized the great buzzard hovering in the sky.

Chief Kurosawa's mind crossed Ye Xi's indifferent and determined face.

The next moment, his heart was crossed, and he suddenly led the team to turn and run towards the river.

And the small tribes behind them also hesitated, gritted their teeth and decided to follow behind Kurosawa's team.

Five or six surviving tribal teams fled in the direction of Ye Xi and them.
