On the endless prairie, everywhere is a withered yellow color, and now it is the season of desolation, and there is a depression in sight, but the beasts have to be busy, and they are also busy preparing food for themselves for the winter.

Under the leadership of the war elders, the group of the Qiang people are quietly sneaking towards the place of fighting, in fact, when they get closer, they find both sides of the fight, and this must be the Gang of the Clan and the clansmen who escorted the thousand-year-old pig, but their situation at this time is not very good, surrounded by a group of disheveled guys, many of the Gang are already mentally exhausted, obviously because of the huge consumption of soul power, even He Lao is slightly pale, obviously, he has more hard work to protect the clansmen among the strong enemies。

Originally, Zhan Lao planned to rush to the rescue immediately, but Ma Long proposed to approach quietly, and then give the other party a surprise attack from the rear, the soul impact is the same as the spiritual power, and the closer the distance, the stronger the effect.

However, Mo Ming didn't quite agree with this, unlike the battle of spiritual power, soul cultivators have a more obvious advantage for spiritual cultivators, that is, they can spread out the power of the soul, detect the surrounding environment at all times, and once there is a change, they can immediately know.

"Do you know that we are a team escorting sacrifices for the gods? If you rob the sacrifices, aren't you afraid of being condemned by the gods?" and the old man was very strange in his heart, these bandits found them, but they did not directly rob them, but drove them like wild beasts, so that they had no way out, but after surrounding, they did not move, only when they sent people to break through to seek reinforcements, they broke through the killer and chased and killed the people who broke through.

"What do these guys want to do?" and the old man secretly wondered in his heart.

"Hmph, as long as it hasn't been sent to the altar, it's not a sacrifice yet, even if we rob it. The Celestial Gods will not condemn us, and when the time comes, you will not have sacrifices, but you will be the ones who should be condemned, right?" the leader of the bandits laughed disdainfully.

"You!" and the old man's face changed. Originally, he also wanted to use the name of the gods to scare these bandits and make them retreat in fear. However, at this time, he was secretly anxious in his heart, and could not help but say angrily: "What do you want to surround us here? ”

The bandit at the head smiled lightly and said, "Who said we want to rob you of your sacrifices? ”

"Then what are you doing it for?" asked the old man with a frown.

"Hmph. Why, when the leader of your tribe comes, you will know. The leader of the bandits said coldly, and then he stopped talking, just staring at the old man and his group.

However. Hearing that Yan and Lao and the others had a drastic change in their faces, they realized that he had sent people to break through before, but he had already been in the calculations of these people, and then they were originally glad that one of them had escaped successfully. It's just that now that I think about it carefully, it turns out that these people did it on purpose, deliberately making a nervous chase and killing, but they just let one person go, but it turned out to be premeditated. Deliberately let one man go to report to the chief, and then bring him in.

"Hmph, do you know where the leader of my clan is now? Even if the person who reported the news sees the leader, maybe he will bring it with him. He Lao's eyes sank, and he said suddenly.

"Hahahaha, I'm afraid this is going to disappoint you, I know that during the Heavenly God Festival, the leaders of all the troops will gather at the Hong Clan station, but you expect those pretentious guys to rescue you, but it's just a fool's dream, we are called not bandits, do you think these guys who are afraid of death will stir up the army because of you a low-end tribe?" The bandit leader smiled disdainfully: "What's more, even if they want to send someone to save them, they won't be able to come in the end anyway." ”

"Why can't you come?" He Lao suddenly asked.

"Because someone won't let him ......," the man replied, but as soon as he said something, he suddenly realized that he had slipped his mouth and quickly shut up.

"Someone won't let you?" He Lao frowned, but he secretly thought in his heart, but only then did he react, the target of these bandits was his leader Ma Long, and even said that it was not anyone from the Qiang Clan, but the Gang itself, but at the same time, he also understood that these people should not harm themselves and others before the leader came, although he didn't know what these guys were planning for, but at least they were safe for now, and besides, their Gang was just a small tribe that did not enter the stream, and I am afraid that they could not enter the eyes of these bandits who made the Hong Clan have a headache, how could these guys be interested in them。

"Is the purpose of these guys the divine sacrifice of heaven?" He Lao was suddenly shocked, but his expression was silent, but now they can't do anything now, they can only wait for the arrival of the leader, "I hope the leader is not impulsive, otherwise if you anger these bandits, the consequences will be really unimaginable." He Lao sighed secretly in his heart.

"The situation seems to be a little wrong!" Zhan Lao frowned slightly, and said suspiciously, while Ma Long and the others stopped less than fifteen miles away from the old man.

"What's going on?" asked Malone in a low voice, looking a little anxious.

"I can't say, I only heard that the bandits are fierce and strong, and they never show mercy when robbing, but I saw that they were sitting on the ground with the old man, and there was no resistance at all, and the bandits did not attack them, but only surrounded them, and I can't figure out what the situation is. Zhan Lao said in a low voice, but then his face changed suddenly, because the bandits who had been inactive suddenly moved and looked in their direction, obviously, the strong among them had already discovered Ma Long and the others.

"Come out, Marlon Chief, don't worry, we just want to talk to you, and we won't hurt you, and naturally we won't hurt them, but the premise is that you have to cooperate with us. ”

The faces of Ma Long and the others changed suddenly, and someone among the bandits actually used the method of soul transmission to say to them, but what shocked them was that the distance between the two parties was a full fifteen miles, but the soul transmission of this person was still so clear, which showed the strength of the soul of the person who transmitted the sound.

"This person's cultivation is above mine. The old man said with a solemn face: "The leader must be extra careful. ”

"Even so, we can't let them hurt and grow old. Ma Long sighed helplessly, but then glanced at the servant, and said in a deep voice: "Let's go, let's go and see what tricks these bandits are playing." ”

And at the same time. In the Hong station, the matter of the heavenly god sacrifice is being carried out in an orderly manner, and the sacrifices prepared by various tribes have also been transported to the altar prepared in advance. The place of the Tenjin Sacrifice was chosen directly behind the Hong station, that is, near the Great River. It is also the widest part of the entire river.

"Hmph, it seems that these people don't dare to do anything during the sacrifice of the gods, and they are also worried that they will be punished by the gods. After listening to the report of the clan spies, Hong Huang sneered and said, according to the report of the spies, there was nothing abnormal in the big tents of all clans, and everything seemed to have returned to peace. Even the Hanfeng tribe, which had just died as the young leader, was preparing for the Celestial Sacrifice.

"Of course, the Celestial God Sacrifice is the biggest thing in the prairie, and these guys don't dare to risk the world's big deals, no matter how evil they are. It's a place to make trouble, but we also have to be careful, as the calmest time is often before a storm. ”

Hearing this, Hong Huang's eyes gradually became gloomy, and a cold light suddenly flashed in his eyes.

And it's a long way from the Hong station. A negotiation is underway.

"No, resolutely not, the sacrifice of the gods is a major event on the grassland, and the majesty of the gods cannot be offended, if our clan does this. If I am punished by the gods, it will be a major matter that will affect the entire tribe, and I will never agree to this. Ma Long's face was solemn, and he shook his head again and again, because the conditions proposed by the bandits were too difficult for strong people, and they even asked to disguise themselves as people from the Qiang tribe and follow the escort team to blend into the Hong tribe station.

How many tribes are there on the grassland, all of them are counted, the emergence and demise of each tribe will be notified to everyone at the time of the god sacrifice every year, and the change of the leader of each tribe will also notify all the other tribes, so the leaders of each tribe know each other, which is why although the bandits want to enter the Hong station, they have to get the cooperation of Ma Long, because without the leadership of the leader, their identity will not be recognized, and they will be recognized, I am afraid that they have just entered the Hong station, and they will be dealt with on the spot by the warriors of the Hong tribe。

"Leader Ma Long, don't refuse so quickly, you have to think carefully about this matter, you also see our strength, and your people are now in my hands, as long as I give an order, I'm afraid they will lose their lives, can you bear to watch your clansmen die here?" The bandit leader said with a smile, but he didn't care about Ma Long's refusal at all, but threatened with the lives of the old man and others.

"You!" Ma Long's face changed suddenly, but he couldn't speak, his expression changed, let him agree to the bandits' request, he naturally refused, if he really brought these bandits into the Hong Clan, if these bandits suddenly made trouble during the sacrifice of the gods, not to mention whether the gods would be angry, just colluding with the bandits, it would be impossible for the Gang to mix in the grassland from now on, but now the bandits are powerful, and the lives of the old and others are still in their hands, so that he can't do it if he can't save it.

"So Leader Marlon, you should still think about my proposal, but don't let these old people in your clan chill. The bandit leader said with a smile.

"The patriarch doesn't have to pay attention to us, my old bones, even if I die here today, I don't have to let these despicable guys ruin my clan. Seeing that Ma Long was in a dilemma and it was difficult to make a choice, He Lao stared at him and shouted loudly.

"And the old man, you!" Zhan Lao was in a hurry, and shouted unwillingly, although he also knew that what He Lao said was indeed the most important choice for Ma Long, but if he really let him just give up his clan and leave it alone, he would not be willing anyway.

Mo Ming silently stood among the people of the Gang Clan, watching the changes, these powerful bandits are not dangerous at all for him with the Rock Ring, and even if he wants, he can kill them all with his own strength, but in this way, the bandits are bound to fight back desperately, although there is no danger to him, but it will hurt the people of the Gang Clan, if there is any mistake with the old man, if he can't get the "Soul Mist" promised by Ma Long, it will really be worth the loss.

"Other than this, other conditions can be negotiated. Ma Long's eyes were solemn, staring straight at the other party, and said in a deep voice.

However, the leader of the bandits looked helpless. Shrugged his shoulders, he replied helplessly: "Then I have no choice, it seems that you can only prepare a cemetery for these people of yours, chief." ”

"You. You don't want to touch them. Ma Long's face suddenly changed and roared angrily. However, before he could make a move, the other party suddenly smiled strangely and said, "If you don't agree to my request, I will not only move them today, but even you will not want to leave alive." ”

"Oops, chief, we're surrounded. These scumbags have been in ambush for a long time. Zhan Lao's face suddenly became ugly, just now, he suddenly realized that he didn't know when, they had actually hidden into the encirclement. Suddenly a large number of people poured out from around them.

"Hahahaha, to tell you the truth, I have already arranged it, as soon as you step into my trap, you are doomed to have only two results today. Either agree to my request and take us into the Hon garrison, or none of you will want to leave today, and I warn you, not only today. In the future, I will also take these people of mine to your tribe from time to time. The bandit leader had a cruel smile on his face and said casually, but before the words fell, the faces of Ma Long and the others instantly became ugly.

As the saying goes, if these bandits really think about their clan and harass them from time to time, then the clan will never have peace.

"Damn, what do you want?" the old man shouted angrily, but the bandits on the other side were unmoved.

"What I want is very simple, I just want the Marlon leader to make a choice that everyone is happy with. The bandit leader said with a smile.

Ma Long suddenly fell silent, as if he was thinking about the words of the bandit leader.

The bandit leader nodded with satisfaction, but then suddenly smiled: "By the way, by the way, I would like to remind you, there is no time left for you, because I just got the news that the Hong clan has announced that the Heavenly God Sacrifice has been held normally, and now the major tribes are busy sending the sacrifices they have prepared to the altar, if you don't make a decision quickly, Leader Marlon, I'm afraid you won't be able to catch up with the Heavenly God Sacrifice." ”

"Hmm, haven't those people done it yet?" Hearing this, Mo Ming's expression moved, but he was secretly thinking in his heart, but it was no wonder that he was puzzled, because it was difficult for outsiders to understand the respect of the grassland residents for the gods.

"Can you tell me what your real purpose is for blending into the Hong Clan?" Ma Long suddenly asked in a deep voice, his face solemn, but his eyes were unusually determined.

Hearing this, the bandit leader was slightly silent, his eyes flashing, and he seemed to be hesitating.

"If you don't say what you want, I won't agree to take the lives of all of us. Malone said resolutely.

"Well, it doesn't hurt to tell you, in fact, the gods have not appeared for a long time, and although the annual sacrifice of the gods is still carried out as usual, for a long time, the gods have never given us any gifts, and we even suspect that the gods have abandoned us a long time ago. After hesitating for a long time, the bandit leader suddenly nodded and decided to inform Marlon of the reason for joining the human race.

"That's true!" Marlon nodded, his eyes condensed slightly, as the bandit leader said, a long time ago, almost every year during the Celestial God Sacrifice, the Celestial Gods would manifest and bless the inhabitants of the grassland, but until one day the Celestial Gods suddenly disappeared, they never appeared again, and for such a long time, I have never heard of anyone receiving the gift of the Celestial Gods.

"But recently, we have felt the existence of the gods again, and at the same time as these outsiders appeared, our sorcerers suddenly felt the pressure of the gods, so this time the gods sacrifice, the chance of the gods appearing will be very high. Saying that, the expression of the bandit leader turned out to be a little excited.

Ma Long's color suddenly changed, and he exclaimed: "Is this true?" If this is really the case that the long-disappeared gods appear again, then for their tribes, to be able to get this first gift, will be particularly important, although the sword bearer claims to be the closest person to the gods, but it only means that the chance of getting the gift of the gods is greater, it is rumored that the gifts of the gods will eventually fall on whose heads, but it is completely up to the preferences of the gods, that is to say, as long as they are present, anyone is possible, but there is another legend on the grassland, that is, the gods seem to favor those young warriors more, it is said that almost all gifts are without exception, are obtained by the young and strong。

"Do you want to get into the sacrifice of the gods just to get the gifts of the gods? You are bandits, you are an existence that the tribes do not recognize, once your identity is revealed, I am afraid that you will never be able to leave the Hong tribe again. Ma Long stared at him and reminded.

The leader of the bandits waved his hand indifferently and said with a smile: "You're right, we are indeed not very popular, but what if in the end the gift of the gods falls on one of us?"

Hearing this, Ma Long was stunned, the gift of the gods is not only a blessing, but also an identity, the people chosen by the gods, the bandits are not wandering, but the people who have been recognized by the gods, they can become a new tribe clearly, listed as a member of the grassland forces, from then on they can have a fixed station, and do not have to worry about being persecuted by other tribes.

"Yes, I can promise you, but I also have one condition, if you are willing to agree, I will take you in. Ma Long's eyes froze suddenly, and he suddenly raised his head and looked at the bandit leader with a fixed gaze.
