Chapter 38: Hope
There was a valley in the hinterland of the mountain, there were some sheds built with trees in the valley, dozens of injured people of the Bai royal family were lying in them, most of the injured were young men and women, many people or severed limbs or this kind of paw prints, and some people were pale and twitching, and there were constantly painful and depressed ** sounds inside, and there were some children outside the shed who were busy boiling some herbs and cooking some mushrooms, and the whole valley seemed very depressed.
A joyful voice broke the oppression, and a girl with a few young men and women ran quickly towards the valley, saying as she ran, "Come and see, we have caught the prey, and we have also picked the elixir." ”
I saw that some of them were holding roe deer, some were carrying wild boars, and some were holding some ginseng herbs, and in a blink of an eye, they arrived in the valley, and when they heard them talk, looking at the things they were holding in their hands, the eyes of the other people in the valley lit up, and the younger children stared at the wild boar, and their saliva flowed.
The girl at the head was dressed in a leather shirt and shorts, with brown hair tied in a ponytail, a soft whip wrapped around her waist and looking very lean, and her bare skin had shallow lines symbolizing the Bai Huang clan.
A young man quickly came to look at the girl with a happy face and said angrily: "What if you sneak out to hunt and encounter fierce beasts!" Uncle Mo and Uncle Li all died to protect us, and now a few of us have the highest cultivation, if something happens, who will keep the seeds of our Bai royal family!"
Listening to the young man's words, the group lowered their heads again, and some held back the tears in their eyes, and the girl who was hunting opened a pair of moist eyes and said: "If I really encounter a fierce beast, I will lead it far away until I can't walk anymore, and you can evacuate." ”
Listening to the girl's words, a child who was originally drooling touched his saliva, shook off the tears in his eyes, puffed up his chest and said, "Sister Mei, we are not hungry." ”
"Yes, we're not hungry. A dozen or so children said in unison.
The girl went over and gently stroked the child's head and said, "You are the last hope of our Bai Huang, as long as you can grow up safely, it is worth my death." ”
The young man looked at the scene in front of him, and also held back the tears in his eyes, and the others wanted to say something, so he turned and left.
"Next time I'll go. A voice came from behind him.
After the death of Uncle Mo and Uncle Li, who originally protected the children, this young man became the best cultivator among them, and he was called "Senior Brother Yan" by everyone and the children.
After a while, there was a strong smell of herbs and a burst of meat in the upper valley, and the children not far away were spitting seriously, accompanied by the sound of dripping saliva and gurgling from their stomachs.
A sweet voice interrupted their cultivation, don't pretend to cultivate, come and help.
"Chubby, go and give this bowl of broth to your big brother. ”
"Yuxin, this bowl of soup and medicine will be sent over there. ”
Under the girl's arrangement, soon all kinds of boo and boo sounds sounded in the valley, and the girl looked at the young man on a stone and walked away with a bowl of soup.
"Senior Brother Yan, I'm sorry, did you have anything to do after the break before, drink this bowl of medicine to recuperate. ”
"My wounds are fine, the brute is very poisonous, I have no wounds that are not infected. ”
After a short pause, the girl spoke again: "Senior Brother Yan, don't you think it's strange? We have been cultivating here for seven days, on the first night we had a wolf howling in the south and an ape roaring in the north, and in the second night there seemed to be only a wolf howling, and then there was no roar of fierce beasts, originally I didn't notice it, this morning Shiwa slept well in the past two days, I only noticed, you also saw the prey we hunted, there are many fierce beasts in the hinterland of the mountains, how can there be wild boars?"
Listening to this, the young man frowned, thinking about something.
"Meizi, you're right, I've been thinking about where I'm going next these days, and I haven't noticed these things at all, do you think it could be that the beast has shifted places, or the murderer is sleeping?" said the young man after thinking about it.
"I think they've left, and they've been gone for a few days, and the most suspicious thing should be these wild boars and roe deer, how did this game come to the hinterland of the mountains?"
After hearing this, the young man stared into the distance and said slowly: "We have been saved, a very powerful person. ”
"If someone saved us, why didn't she show up?"
"I think someone needs us to be alive. ”
"The fierce beasts along the way are all very powerful, what kind of cultivation will this person be able to drive them away so easily and move the wild things in the periphery in?"
"I don't know, but I think if that guy does that, we can recuperate here and wait until everyone is healed. ”
"Senior Brother Yan, why do you say that we will be driven out and exterminated, can't the human race allow us to live normally?"
"I still remember my grandfather telling me that since the time of the Five Emperors, there have been dozens of clan masters and branches eradicated by the Terrans, and he also told me that our ancestors have always suspected that the Terrans are hiding a big secret, and that he once traveled around and found some ruins that are very old, but every time he wanted to dig deeper, those ruins would be destroyed. ”
"Did Grandpa leave anything behind?"
"Grandpa said that he did not dare to stay, and when he died, he told the patriarch to tell us to keep to ourselves. ”
Dozens of days have passed in a blink of an eye, and the tent houses built by the original branches in the valley have become some exquisite caves, and the original sound of wailing has also become the sound of some exercises, and some wild boars and roe deer are raised in a corner of the valley, and the whole valley is full of vitality.
"Oh no, no, the little stone is dead, Sister Mei, come and see. An exclamation broke the valley of harmony.
In a place in the valley, a group of people surrounded a child, and Meizi was looking at the little stone and said to the people around him: "The little stone doesn't know how to be unconscious, it's not poisoned or injured. ”
As he spoke, he saw a series of runes of the Baihuang Clan's mark that belonged to adults appeared under the skin of the small stone, and then the runes continued to flicker from virtual to real.
Meizi and the people around her were overwhelmed by all this, and she looked at Senior Brother Hiko.
Senior Brother Yan observed it carefully and said, "The little stone has returned to his ancestors, and the depths of his soul have stirred up ancient memories, maybe he will teach us the exercises that belong to us." ”
Xiao Shi's state lasted for a whole day and a night, and everyone was reluctant to leave, quietly guarding him, and in the constantly flickering runes, he saw the hope of the future and the power to keep his dignity.
"Sister Mei, what are you doing?" a childish voice broke everyone's illusions.
Meizi hurriedly grabbed Xiao Shi's hand and touched his head again, and asked, "Xiao Shi, what's wrong with you, do you feel uncomfortable?" ”
"No, I just suddenly fell asleep very tired and had a long, long dream. Xiaoshi rubbed his eyes and said.
"And do you remember what you dreamed about?" someone asked.
"I don't remember. ”
At this time, some people still wanted to ask something more, and some people kissed and sighed Meizi and said, "Everyone is scattered, Xiaoshi is hungry, my sister will make you broth." ”
"Okay, good, good......"
