Chapter 49: Tribal Revolt
Joseph was a little unbelieving at first, but when he saw the Messiah looking at him with a serious face, his heart was also tight, so he hurriedly performed a "hawk eye technique", followed the Messiah's gaze, and sure enough, he saw dozens of war horses galloping on the grassland in the distance, and the direction was towards the river!
"Damn, what's the matter, are our traces exposed?!" Joseph's heart tightened, and he couldn't help but look at the Messiah, but the female knight snorted coldly, and there was a trace of evil in her eyes!
"Don't be impulsive just yet," José squinted at the cavalry rushing towards him, thought for a moment, and then shook his head and said, "They don't seem to be coming for us, you see...... They should be targeting those few people!"
Messiah looked in the direction indicated by Joseph, and saw that there were indeed two or three people running on horseback at the front of the cavalry, and it seemed that they were indeed being chased by dozens of people behind them, but the distance between the two sides was too far, so he didn't notice the people in front of him before.

The Messiah thought for a moment, but was unexpectedly silent for a moment, turned the horse's head, and said to Joseph in a somewhat stiff tone: "Let's stay out of the way, wait for them to pass, and then hurry." ”
When Joseph heard this, he couldn't help but look at the Messiah with some curiosity: this woman was still murderous just now, how could she see these people approaching, but she was willing to take the initiative to back down, this is not in line with the proud nature of the female elf?
Seeing Joseph's strange expression, Messiah naturally guessed his thoughts, and couldn't help but snort coldly: "You guy, you must be thinking in your heart that I am willing to take the initiative to avoid these guys, don't feel strange? Don't look at me with this expression, I have my own reason...... Just follow me, and if they find out, I won't protect you. ”
After saying this, the knight turned her head and looked around, and immediately turned over and dismounted, and said something in the ears of the two horses, and the horses, as if they could understand her, raised their hooves and ran behind her.
"What are you doing? The horses are gone, chase after them!" José saw the two horses running away, and in a moment they were gone, and in a hurry, and did not care that the clothes on them were not yet dry, he jumped up from the fire and shouted at the Messiah.
"Fool, I used the elven druid communication technique, and I just let the two horses run away on their own for the time being, and the reeds here are only the height of one person, how can I hide two horses?" said the Messiah, and directly bent down and hid in the reeds by the riverbank, which did not look easy to spot her from the outside.
"What else are you seeing, they're coming soon, why don't you come in and hide quickly?" José heard the Messiah say, so he could only extinguish the fireball, and follow her example, and leaned down into the reeds.
As soon as Jose had taken cover, he suddenly heard a whistling sound that pierced the air, and a feathered arrow stuck right where he had just crouched. Jose was suddenly shocked into a cold sweat, but he couldn't help but feel a wave of annoyance in his heart: Damn, who is so arrogant, chasing and killing others in broad daylight, and almost shooting himself!
Thinking of this, he looked in the direction where the feather arrows came, and saw that on the slope not far away, two war horses galloped quickly, and immediately sat three steppe people, behind them was a group of cavalry, all with bows and arrows, and they all bent their bows and aimed at them, and it seemed that the previous feather arrows were also issued by them.
The steppe man is born to be a good hunter and herd, and the archery is surprisingly accurate, after a round of arrow rain swept densely, the warrior on the horse behind suddenly let out a miserable scream, and then fell from the horse weakly, obviously out of breath. The steppe man who was riding the same horse with him could not react, and fell off the horse that had lost control.
Seeing this, the steppe warrior at the front hurriedly reined in his horse, turned over and ran to the steppe man who had fallen to the ground to help him up, but in this way he delayed a lot of effort, and the cavalry behind immediately caught up with them.
The strange thing is that they did not immediately bend their bows to shoot them, and a middle-aged man immediately separated from the pursuers, who seemed to be their leader, and the man sighed, and the cavalry immediately dispersed in a tacit formation, and surrounded the two men tightly, as if they did not intend to kill them immediately.
Judging from the clothing language of those two groups of people, there is no doubt that they should be grassland people. He noticed that one of the two steppe men who were being hunted down was thin and short, and it seemed that he should be a young child. The other person, who was also dressed as a samurai, was glaring at the samurai leader with a look of resentment.
The besieged steppe people, one large and one small, also seemed to realize their intentions, and immediately pulled out the scimitar in his arms, pointing at those people and saying something loudly, fortunately, the distance was not too far, the magician's mental power was sensitive, and Jose only slightly released his spiritual power sense, and the voices of those people reached his ears clearly.
The warrior who had been hunted down was now guarding the child's body with a hideous face, his armor covered in scars and bloodstains, apparently left after a fierce battle.
"Almat, don't resist any longer! hand over that child quickly, I promise to say a few kind words to you in front of the chief, and maybe then you will be reused by the chief, isn't it better than dying here in vain to protect this bastard?" the steppe man on the horse looked down at them with a proud face, and shouted loudly.
The figure of the man who spoke was not burly, he was even shorter than the samurai next to him, and he had two mustaches on his face, which did not look like a rough steppe man, but a little more cunning and sinister.
When the warrior called "Alam" heard this, his face was immediately full of anger, and the scimitar in his hand was still pointed directly at the leader of the chasing soldiers on the horse, and shouted viciously: "Vultures, you cunning wolf! The leader treats you like a son and son, but you collude with the Lou Fu tribe to rebel against the tribe, are you not afraid of suffering the wrath of the steppe king, and you are not afraid of being punished by the great gods?!"
Wuya sneered and glanced at Almu: "Alam, you pedantic guy, the grassland has always been respected by the strong, and the tribe has been wiped out by Lou Fu, even if the king of the grassland knows about this, he will only recognize the status of the leader, can't you understand such a simple thing?" Speaking of this, he showed a somewhat impatient look, "You hurry up and hand over that kid now, I can still save your life, otherwise, don't blame me for not recognizing the scimitar and bow and arrow in my hand!"
Alam laughed angrily, "Hmph, vultures, I want to see if the scimitar in your hand is hard or the scimitar in my hand is hard!"
After saying that, he raised his scimitar high, pointed at the sky, took a deep breath, and roared to the sky. His long howl was like a wolf's howl! His angry face radiated a heroic spirit peculiar to the prairie people!
"Is there infighting?" Seeing this, Qiao Se couldn't help frowning, but he couldn't help but cry and laugh in his heart, he really could encounter this kind of thing wherever he went, he encountered the grassland people chasing Su Ya in the desert before, and now he encountered the grassland people fighting in the grassland.
The Messiah on the side snorted coldly and said lightly: "Wait and see what happens, and we'll come out when they're gone." ”
"Why did you suddenly change sex?" Joseph glanced at the Messiah strangely, and finally couldn't help asking: "With your temperament, even if you encounter thousands of prairie spirit riders, you won't avoid a single bit, why are you so cautious in the face of these people now?"
Hearing Joseph's mean tone, Messiah didn't pay attention to it, but just shook his head and said, "The strongest human master I have encountered along the way is only level eight, and I have never even met a person worthy of my full strength...... Hmph, these people are just ants in front of me. Besides, cultivating the killing heart too early will also hinder future cultivation, and ...... Don't you think it's funny right now?"
When Joseph heard her last words, she didn't even shake her head, and no longer paid attention to this strange woman, and focused her attention on the infighting steppe people.
At this moment, most of the steppe people had dismounted from their horses, and they all drew their scimitars and approached the Alam, only the fellow called the vulture was still sitting on the horse, and several of the steppe people also drew their bows and arrows in their hands, pointing directly at Alam and the child behind him.
Seeing this, Alam just tightly protected the child behind him with his body, staring at the steppe man who surrounded him vigilantly, and then suddenly shouted violently, and pounced on the steppe warrior who rushed to the front, the scimitar in Alam's hand waved, a cold light flashed, and with a bang, blood suddenly gushed out!
When the other steppe warriors saw the tragic death of their companions, their eyes immediately turned red, and they directly raised their knives and rushed forward, but Alam obviously had a lot of combat experience, and he didn't entangle after a successful blow, and turned to the two warriors behind him with his reflexive sword, and slashed down almost without waiting for the two to react!
The one in front couldn't dodge it directly, and under the heavy blow of the scimitar in Alam's hand, the entire head and helmet were split in two!
Jose's eyes lit up at this time, he noticed that there was a faint gray light on the body of the scimitar knife wielded by Alam, it seemed that this guy was still a high-level martial artist, and he actually emitted a fighting aura similar to that of a knight!
With the Alam scimitar in his hand, he immediately burst out with a broken cry, holding the knife in both hands, and slashed down at the surrounding samurai again and again, one breath was like a storm, and the scimitar carried the sharpness of the fighting spirit, and it was almost able to put down a close samurai with one sword.
When seven or eight warriors were knocked to the ground by Almu, the vultures finally lost their breath and shouted at their men: "Give it to me! Whoever kills Almu will have a bounty of five hundred coins and one thousand cattle and sheep!"
Those steppe warriors had already been forced away by Alam, but at this moment, when they heard the leader's words, they suddenly had a greedy heart in their hearts, although most of the barters on the steppe, but there was also no shortage of trade through various caravans, and they naturally knew the value of gold.
Five hundred gold coins plus one thousand cattle and sheep is a huge fortune even in the rich Bright Empire, let alone on this barren grassland!
So after hearing this, the grassland people under the vultures were all red-eyed and hot-hearted, and they besieged it one by one with crazy scimitars, although Alam was brave, but after all, it was only equivalent to the level of four or five knights, and in the face of these dozens of warriors who showed fierce and crazy colors, they couldn't help but feel a tight pressure.
Finally, after swinging his sword and slashing down an approaching samurai, Alam also had a deep wound on his right hand, and blood suddenly flowed out.
This further stimulated the samurai, who, under the temptation of heavy money, rushed up even more frantically, although Alam also desperately resisted, but he was concerned about the safety of the children behind him, and it was inevitable that he would be distracted. Within a few moments, there were a few more wounds on his body.
