Chapter 49: The Girl's Determination
"Does it still hurt?"
"It's much better," Xi lay on the couch and looked at Gu Xu who was sitting on the side with a pair of watery eyes, "Master, did I behave too badly just now, making you very dissatisfied?" ”
Gu Xu shook his head.
"You had no previous experience," he said, "and it was a surprise to me that you could do it for the first time." ”
"Then why do you keep frowning? I thought I upset you. ”
"I just...... I just suddenly remembered someone. ”
What Gu Xu thought of was naturally Zhao Yan, who had just awakened the power of the bloodline and obtained the wings of the fire phoenix.
At that time, Zhao Yan was heroic, like a rebirth of Nirvana.
It's like this stupid little girl, who finally flew up, but hit her head on the ceiling.
"Who is it?" Xi sat up straight and stared at Gu Xu, "Is it a woman?" ”
"Why are you so nervous?" Gu Xu looked at her vigilant appearance and couldn't help but chuckle.
"It's not because I'm afraid that Shizun will be robbed by others," Xi moved his body, got closer to him, and then grabbed one of his arms and held it in his arms, "Shizun is good-looking and powerful, in your hometown, there must be many people who like you!" ”
Gu Xu was silent.
"If you don't speak, there must be," the girl put her chin on his shoulder, "Master, can you tell me who they are?" Take me with you when you come home, and I'll challenge them. ”
Since he had the "Holy Flame Totem", Xi always unconsciously wanted to be with Gu Xu.
When she approached him, she felt as if the blood in her body had become warm, and there was an indescribable feeling of comfort.
Hearing her words, Gu Xu couldn't help but complain in his heart: This little girl, after having the "Holy Fire Totem", seems to really see herself as a man in the wild tribe, and if something is wrong, she will go to her rival to duel. In the future, the fierce folk customs of the Great Yan Kingdom are estimated to have originated from here.
"You cultivate well first, don't think about this mess," Gu Xu gently pushed the girl away, and then stood up from the side of the bed, "With your current strength, you can't even beat even the most ordinary ghosts, if you really go to my hometown, you will only be beaten up." ”
"In your hometown, are everyone as strong as you?" The girl jumped out of bed with him.
"There are those who are stronger than me, and there are those who are weaker than me, and the strength is uneven."
"There are people who are stronger than Shizun!" The girl's eyes widened in surprise. In her cognition, Gu Xu has always been the most powerful and invincible existence in this world.
"Let's tell you the truth," Gu Xu sighed lightly, "The reason why I came here is also because I was hunted down. ”
"Who wants to kill you?" Xi raised her voice slightly, and her tone was unconsciously mixed with a hint of nervousness, a hint of anger.
"The most powerful cultivator in my world."
"How strong is he?"
"He can slap me to death."
"That's terrible!"
Xi gasped and didn't come back to her senses for a long time.
After being silent for a while, she suddenly didn't say a word, and was about to run to the door of "Xianyunju".
"Where are you going?" Gu Xu stopped her.
"As you instructed, go and cultivate!" Xi said without thinking, "Master, you said that I am very talented. Then as long as I practice hard, maybe I can help Master Zun get rid of the enemy in the future! ”
Gu Xu looked at her and wanted to say something, but finally swallowed the words back.
…………
In the evening, the Red Fire Tribe and the Blood Wolf Tribe held a party around the campfire to celebrate the official merger of the two tribes.
The men of the tribe, armed with sticks and rudimentary stone weapons, hunted two bison, slaughtered them and roasted them on the flames.
After eating and drinking, he challenged each other again, and the two engaged in hand-to-hand combat with fists to the flesh. The women cheered and cheered on them.
In ancient times, people worshipped strength.
In this rare celebration, the battle of power is also an absolute theme.
Gu Xu sat quietly in the corner not far away, closing his eyes and pondering, without mixing.
He wore a black half-face mask given to him by the head of Loss.
In the eyes of everyone, he is a passerby with no sense of existence. No one would give him a second look.
Xi sat beside him.
At this moment, she is still in the joy of obtaining the "Holy Fire Totem".
She lit up the totem pattern on her body again and again, and extinguished it again and again, like a child who had just received a birthday present.
I don't know how long it has been.
Suddenly, a voice sounded not far away: "Chief Gaoxin, have you convinced your granddaughter now?" ”
When Gu Xu heard the voice, he looked up and saw a strong dark man with his waist crossed in front of Xi's grandfather.
The strong man had a thick body like a bear, and his body was as tall as a hill, and his shiny hair was tied into a cockscomb bun on his head, and his body was covered with various paints and patterns of wild wolves.
At first glance, it looks like it's not easy to mess with.
"That man is the son of the leader of the Blood Wolf Tribe, Fangs." Xi whispered in Gu Xu's ear.
"He's the one who wants to marry you?"
"Hmm." Xi nodded.
Then she stood up, slipped over to the swarthy man in the blink of an eye, and stopped in front of her grandfather.
"Fang, you have something to tell me directly, don't embarrass my grandfather!"
When the swarthy strong man saw the young and beautiful girl, his two copper bell-like eyes immediately lit up. He reached out and grabbed Xi's shoulder, and said with a smile, "Xi, you're finally here-"
But before he finished speaking, Xi's body faintly flashed red, and then a huge force surged out of thin air, pushing the tower-like strong man's fangs to the ground.
Fangs lay on the ground with a shocked expression on his face, and he couldn't imagine that a slender girl could knock him to the ground without any effort.
"I must have been careless." Fangs thought to himself silently as he got up from the ground.
"I'm going to challenge you," Xi stood in front of him with his hands on his hips, "If you win, I'll marry you." If I win, then you can't pester me and my people again. ”
"I don't accept a woman's challenge," Fangfang shook his head with his chin held high, "it's the rules of the tribe. ”
"Don't you dare to compare with me?" Xi narrowed her eyes and looked at him with a defiant gaze.
"Women are weak," Fangfang said earnestly, "and it is an insult to my honor to compete with women." ”
At this moment, a calm voice suddenly came from behind them.
"The rules can be changed."
The crowd followed the voice.
I saw a young man who was not as handsome as a mortal, dressed in clothes that did not belong to this era, striding towards them.
Golden-red flames swirled and jumped around him, making him look like a god had descended.
