From the grassland to the more arid and barren land, where a thousand grains of gold had been found, Shao Xuan taught him the knowledge of identifying herbs according to the Jiju in his memory, and asked the tribesmen to prepare some.

Along the way, too many things, chasing and killing, all kinds of dangers in the mountains and forests, the wounded consumed a lot of medicine, and those sent by the Taihe tribe were almost bottomed out, although they themselves had picked herbs halfway, but they couldn't bear the heavy consumption, and now there are not many medicines at hand. People who have not awakened the power of totems, as well as those old people, even if they are carried on their backs many times, will inevitably become sick for a long time.

It has been twenty days since the tribe set out, and there is still a long way to go, so we have to continue to hold on, so it is natural to prepare a little more herbs at this time.

The people of the Shao Xuanjiao tribe identified the medicinal herbs in this area, and if they encountered them, they picked them and prepared them.

Looking up at the sky, Shao Xuan found that high in the sky, a bird flew through the air, and it couldn't see what it looked like, it flew too high and was flexible, even with an arrow, it was difficult to shoot down.

"What's wrong?" asked Zhengluo.

"The bird, again. Shao Xuan pointed to the shadow in the air.

"Again?" Zheng Luo became vigilant, "it should be raised by someone, or tracking our movements." ”

"Chief, you say, why haven't the people from Wangcheng appeared yet?" asked Shao Xuan.

"What do you mean...... That bird is from Wangcheng?!"

Seiro was silent. He is not a person who doesn't understand anything, he knows that those people in the royal city, once they decide who to deal with, they will definitely take action, and the ones they encountered in front are just the tentacles that the people in the royal city released first.

Now that everyone else can track the movements of the Flamehorn Tribe. The people of Wangcheng definitely didn't know anything, and they didn't show up, maybe they were waiting for the best time.

"They're here too?" asked Seiro. Although it was a doubt, Zheng Luo already had five points of certainty in his heart.

"The people in Wangcheng are not used to the mountains and forests, and they haven't made a move until now, probably waiting for us to leave the mountains and forests. Go to the open and shoot again. Shao Xuan thought about the topography of the place he passed through when he first came over, "Out of this barren mountain, you will pass through a more open place, there are more people, and the road is flat, only after walking there, will you enter the semi-desert area." The people of the royal city, the most likely place to appear. It's in the middle of the road. ”

Zheng Luo's heart sank, although they also looked at those pretentious people in the royal city on weekdays, but they had to admit that they were able to lay down the current territory and develop to the current scale, the current six nobles, the six strongest tribes in the past, the strength should not be underestimated. Now there are children, old people, and unawakened women in the ranks. They simply can't let go of the fight, and it's impossible for them to give up on these people. As for the solution. Unless a part of the people is left behind, blocking the pursuit of the royal city, let the rest of the tribe continue to hurry.

For the people in the royal city, it is very likely that they will never be able to keep up with the team, not even cremation. For the sake of the tribe, though. Sacrifice is inevitable, and even if he recruits himself, he is ready to stay.

"You've got to put some people at the back of the line. Zhengluo looked at the surrounding barren mountains and said, "I'll go and talk to Duokang." ”

The team was on their way. Zheng Luo talked to the soldiers according to the situation of each family, and some families, the kind that rely on one person to support them, must not let him join the team behind the mat.

Zheng Luo calculated, to temporarily block the team of Wang Cheng, at least more than a thousand people must be divided, otherwise it will not be of much use at all.

Zhengluo originally wanted to add it himself, but he was the leader and had to lead the team, and even if he wanted to, no one else would allow it. How do you go if you don't have a leader?

"I'll just add it, brother, you lead the team and continue walking. Zheng Cheng strode over and said.

Although Zheng Cheng is more reckless, his strength is not much weaker than Zheng Luo, otherwise he would not compete with Zheng Luo for the position of leader back then. On weekdays, the two brothers don't like it, but at this time, Zheng Cheng stood up.

Zheng Luo looked at this younger brother, suddenly felt that his eyes were sour, and he opened his mouth to speak, but was interrupted by Zheng Cheng: "Don't talk nonsense, that's it, how many people are there?" ”

Saying that, Zheng Cheng snatched the cloth with his name written on Zheng Luo's hand, "Yo, Duo Kang and Guangyi are also there, and Wacha is also there, well, not bad, yes, and that kid, you have the courage, and Shao ...... Oh no, brother, how can there be Shao Xuan's name on this? How can you let Shao Xuan be on this? You leader is getting more and more confused!"

Zheng Cheng seized the opportunity to count his brother.

Zhengluo was stunned when he heard it, and snatched the cloth over, he told everyone while he was resting, and then put the cloth on a stone, and let the people who met the requirements and were willing to stay write their names on it, there were too many people around there at that time, he didn't pay attention, when did Shao Xuan, this kid, write his name on it?!

Anyone in the team can stay, even if it is Zhengluo, they will stay when necessary, but two people cannot stay, one is Wu, many things can't be done without Wu, this trip to leave, there must be Wu. And the other person is Shao Xuan.

Shao Xuan is the elder of the tribe, wearing ancestral bone ornaments, if you want to take the tribe back to your hometown, except for witches, you can't do without Shao Xuan, not to mention, Shao Xuan is a person over there, without Shao Xuan, even if he can go back, it will be difficult, and their eyes over there are black.

"Cross out, cross out, quickly cross out Shao Xuan's name!" Zheng Cheng didn't know where to pick out a lump of dark green mud and paste it on Shao Xuan's name.

In the next few days, the team continued to walk, and Zhengluo continued to check the list to see if it met the conditions he said, and when he was about to leave the barren mountain, Zhengluo reported the final list.

These thousand men will be cushioned behind the ranks, and if they touch the people of the royal city, they will have to carry them, and they are the last shield of the tribe to block the spears of the royal city.

There was an atmosphere of sadness in the ranks, but everything had been explained in the past few days, and these people knew what they were going to do and what the possible consequences were.

After Zhengluo finished reporting the list, after a brief talk, he put away the cloth and planned to wipe his reddened eyes, although he had seen a lot of dead and wounded along the way, but this time, it was not the small forces in front, but a tough battle. As the leader, Zheng Luo also felt sad in his heart, but in order to go back, the necessary sacrifices still had to be made, and if it was necessary later, he himself would stand up.

As soon as he rubbed his eyes, as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Shao Xuan standing in front of him.

Knowing what Shao Xuan was for, Zheng Luo coughed lowly, "Shao Xuan, you know, in our tribe, all the other people can stay, including me, can be in the team behind the mat, but you and Wu can't, otherwise who will take the tribe back to their hometown?"

Shao Xuan paused and said, "I just want to give it a try." ”

"What to try?" said Zhengluo, confused.

"If I encounter people from Wangcheng, I want to try to stop them, but if I can't stop them, I can at least cause them some trouble. ”

"You, what are you trying to cause them a little trouble for...... No, you want to borrow the power of the ancestors?!" Zheng Luo stared at Shao Xuan fiercely.

"Yes. Shao Xuan nodded.

"No, you want to use the power of the ancestors to bring the tribe back, you can't take risks here, we have finally come here, we can't gamble with this!"

"If the ancestor and his old man were here, they wouldn't want to see everyone die here just to go back. Chief, you know, I can live from the mouth of the king beast, and the people of the royal city can come over, and I can continue to live, and moreover, it can also make it easier for the warriors and buy the team more time. ”

"No way!"

The ancestors agreed. ”

"You put ......"

"I don't believe you ask about bone ornaments. Shao Xuan took off the bone ornament and handed it to Zhengluo.

The muscles on Zheng Luo's face twitched twice, his ability to communicate with the ancestors?

Seeing that Shao Xuan was still staring at him, Zheng Luo looked at the bone ornament handed to him, turned his head tangledly, and shook his hand, "Go find Wu!

Shao Xuan grinned, Wu would not object.

Wu did not object, but after hearing Shao Xuan's words that he wanted to leave behind the mat, he stared at Shao Xuan expressionlessly for nearly ten minutes, staring at Shao Xuan's forehead sweating, and then said lightly: "Go ahead." ”

If it weren't for Wu's hand holding the cane, and the green tendons on the back of his hand were bulging because he was too hard, others would definitely think that Wu's heart was as calm as his face.

At times like these, no one can be at peace. Confusion and uncertainty about the future, worry and anxiety about what is coming, however, having come here, they can't turn back.

Walking out of this barren barren mountain, the vision became broader and became popular. The grass on the ground has formed several clear paths because of the frequent movement of people, and there are some clear rut marks on the ground.

The people who come and go around are all trading teams between tribes, but compared to the caravans of the black bears, they are much smaller, just some small tribes' trading teams, the number of people is only about a hundred, and the number is only twenty or thirty people.

When they saw the team of Yanjiao, they all cast curious glances. They hadn't seen the Yanjiao people, but they wondered where this team had come from, as if they had traveled a long way, their clothes were dirty, and their faces were tired, but they couldn't hide their momentum.

It's not easy to mess with. This is the first impression of the person who comes and goes.

So, these people buried their heads and hurried away, fearing that the people of Yanjiao would snatch the goods.

Shao Xuan looked at the sky, the bird was no longer there, but this did not mean that the other party had given up monitoring, on the contrary, the other party felt that there was no need to monitor anymore, because they were already coming. (To be continued......)
