The Ba tribe sent a diplomatic team to Jiuxi to try to figure out what was going on. The so-called diplomatic team of pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info is led by the leader of the previous generation of hunters, and the rest of the members are also hunters, with a total of 7 people.

The former leader of the hunters who led the team was called Gull, but he was actually only in his early 40s, but when he found out that Luo's experience and strength surpassed him, he took the initiative to give up his position and usually simply be a hunter. But with his prestige, there is no doubt that he is the number two among the hunters.

They did not trek to the Jiuxi tribe on foot, as they had in the past, and thanks to the witches that Luo "picked up", the Ba people can now easily reach the lower reaches of the river by raft.

Riding on a raft from the Ba tribe, it only took 4 days to get close to the control area of the Jiuxi tribe. This journey used to take a full 10 days to reach. In the vicinity of this there is a medium-sized tribe called Wen, which has always maintained neutrality, and is neither affiliated with the Ba or Jiuxi, so it has always been regarded as a buffer zone between the two tribes.

The Ba envoy had planned to spend the night in the Wen before continuing to Jiuxi, but the thick black smoke that could be seen from afar raised their vigilance. They hid the raft and quietly walked towards the Wen.

The Wen are also a tribe built on the banks of large rivers, and have always had a population of nearly 700, which is considered a large medium tribe. Their tribe has two layers of wooden fences lined up together, and their defense may not be as strong as that of the Ba, but it is much stronger than that of the Shijing.

But now, the fence that appeared in front of them was gone, and the seven or eight huge gaps in it made it completely defenseless, and the whole tribe was full of fires, but there was no one to be seen fighting the fire.

The gull and the six hunters watched from a distance for a while, and after making sure that no one was moving, they approached.

The gaps in the Wen fence were almost two people wide, and the wood on both sides of the gap was tilted inward, and some of the gaps still had a little blood on them.

When I entered the fence, I found that the fire in the tribe had been burning for some time, and most of the houses had been completely burned clean, except for a few that continued to burn. They found a lot of blood and traces of fighting inside the tribe, and there were broken weapons scattered everywhere, almost every one of them as if they had been broken by a great force.

"Look for survivors. ”

The six hunters scattered and searched the tribe for a while.

"Gulls, there are no survivors, and there are no corpses. ”

"No carcasses of livestock were found, food and utensils were taken away"

"I found some footprints. ”

Finally, a hunter found some clues, and Ou carefully examined the footprints he found, and determined that the Wen people who were still alive had been taken away, and there were footprints of various livestock on the side, and it seemed that the whole tribe had been removed.

"We didn't leave for long, we caught up and had a look. ”

They followed the footprints and finally found a large, makeshift campsite just before nightfall.

The gulls and the hunters lurked and approached slowly, and there were about a thousand people in the camp, and dinner was being cooked, and there were hundreds of campfires in the camp.

Through the bonfire, you can clearly see their activities, and it is estimated that the cattle of the Wen people are used as dinner.

These campfires form a ring. At this time, the sun had almost completely set, and the place where there was no bonfire in the center of the camp was dark, which made it difficult to see, but some livestock and some figures sitting in the place could be faintly seen, probably the captives of the Wen people.

"Let's wait until late at night, sneak in, and find a way to rescue the Wen people"

Several hunters had no objections, although they were not sure yet, but it was estimated that the people around them were all from the Jiuxi tribe, and they destroyed the Wen tribe, and then it would be the turn of the subordinate tribes of the Ba tribe next.

If this is determined, there is no need for the mission to continue, and it is clear that war is imminent.

If you rescue the Wen people now, you will be able to have more manpower to deal with Jiuxi's attack.

The camp was not heavily guarded, and after dinner, most of the campfires were extinguished, leaving only a circle inside, presumably for fear that the livestock or prisoners would escape. After nightfall, there were not many guards, and the gulls and hunters easily infiltrated it.

Sure enough, there were captives and livestock on the inside, and the hands of the captured Wen people were pinned behind their backs, tied together, and strung with ropes, and more than 10 people sat in a circle with their backs to each other, sitting on the ground.

In this way, it is difficult to even stand up, let alone escape, and it is no wonder that the guards have become so lax.

Most of the captives were already asleep, and the gull carefully shook up a prisoner who looked like a hunter, who was wounded and slept lightly, and woke up with a slight shake.

The gull covered his mouth to prevent him from making a sound, and after untying his hands, he leaned in and whispered in his ear.

"We are the hunters of the Ba tribe, and we are here to save you, and do not make a sound. ”

The captive nodded, and when the gull brought his hand, he asked softly.

"How many of you are there?"

"Not much, we were just passing through. Can you tell me what happened?"

"It's from the Jiuxi tribe, and although they are getting stronger and stronger, they have always lived in peace with us. But two days before sunset, they suddenly came to attack us, and at first we had a fence, and they couldn't do anything about us. ”

At this, the captive's face showed a look of horror visibly.

"They had some helpers, about a dozen of them, all of them huge monsters that easily broke our fences, and we weren't opponents at all when we came face to face. Now there are only 500 people left here, and the rest have been turned into corpses. ”

Then his face turned pale again, and he could even see it clearly in the night.

"Those monsters eat people, the people of the Jiuxi tribe also brought the corpses, just to feed those monsters, and after feeding the corpses, it will probably be our turn!"

As the gull spoke, the other hunters quietly released the other captives, and as more and more people were liberated, the movement gradually increased.

Eventually, one of the Nine Creeks guards noticed the movements.

"Who! Captives have fled, captives have fled."

As he shouted, the whole camp burst into an uproar. At this time, the captives helped each other and were soon liberated, and when they were discovered, they began to commotion. That's when the change happened.

A loud roar suddenly appeared, and a dozen huge black figures stood up from the herd, and then appeared in the light of the campfire. Through the light, the gull found that the giants were very large, almost one and a half people tall, with the head of a cow, and their whole bodies were furry and unclothed. These giants were very strong, and they held a huge log in both hands as a club, and in one fell swoop they knocked a Wen man into the air and flew far away.

It was like the last straw that broke the camel's back, and all the captives scattered and fled. All of a sudden, the gull lost track of the other hunters. There was no way to reassemble, so he had to pull the Wen hunter and run towards the camp through the chaos.
