Chapter Forty-Seven: The Hannu Tribe
Seeing Tang Li's sincere expression, the warrior seemed to believe Tang Li's words, and finally slowly put down the spear in his hand, but he still did not relax his guard, he still stared at Tang Li and the two with vigilant eyes, as if he was afraid that Tang Li would escape.
"It's not that I don't believe you, it's just that the chief ordered you, and I was afraid that you would make unfavorable moves on this island so that I locked you up temporarily, and I can't let you go, but you don't have to worry, if you stay honest, I won't hurt you, and similarly, if you are bad people, I won't let you go."
After saying this, the warrior aimed the spear in his hand at Tang Li, his eyes staring at Tang Li, as if once Tang Li made any move, he would immediately kill Tang Li.
"No, no, no! We don't have any intentions, we just want to get out of here. ”
Seeing the suddenly enlarged spear in front of him, Tang Li swallowed a mouthful of saliva and explained with some panic, but the warrior still did not withdraw his spear, his eyes were still staring at Tang Li, looking like a thief.
Seeing this, Tang Li sighed helplessly, "Forget it, if you don't let it go, you won't let it go, but we also have to have a chance to defend ourselves, we can't be locked up for no reason, I believe that the chief in your mouth must be a very kind person who distinguishes right from wrong, he will definitely not wronged us indiscriminately, and in the same way, the matter has not been clarified before, there is no reason to treat each other by force, so let's talk about it first!" ”
After speaking, Tang Li glanced at Shen Nian, "Hey, Shen Nian, you say, what I said is right?" ”
Seeing Tang Li looking at him, a touch of embarrassment appeared on Shen Nian's face, but he still nodded and agreed: "Ahem, yes, that's the case, being kind to others is our human virtue, and whether the other party is an enemy or a friend needs to be respected." ”
Hearing Shen Nian's disobedient words, Tang Li couldn't help but roll his eyes in his heart, turned his head to look at the warrior outside the window again, looked at the other party with a bright smile and echoed: "That's it, since the chief ordered us to be locked up, then the chief has to let us go, so we have to bother this big brother to help us report it." ”
Saying that, Tang Li also blinked his watery eyes with an innocent expression, and the warrior was faintly red after being stared at by Tang Li for a long time, and finally lost the battle, he looked down at the weapon in his hand, and his voice was a little muffled.
"Okay, okay, you wait for me, I'll try." After speaking, the warrior turned around and ran away quickly, and after running a few steps, he suddenly stopped, turned around and shouted at Tang Li: "I'll come when I go!" ”
Tang Li nodded hurriedly, with a look of flattery and encouragement: "Go, go, go!" , waiting for your good news! ”
Hearing Tang Li's response, the warrior strode towards the depths of the forest, while Tang Carp stood in place and watched the back of the warrior in the distance, and a trace of happiness floated in his heart, until the figure of the warrior completely disappeared into the woods, the smile on her face slowly dissipated, replaced by a dignified color.
"I can see it clearly, you don't want to deny it."
Shen Nian's slightly mocking voice came from behind him again, Tang Li turned around for some reason, and looked at Shen Nian in some surprise, not quite understanding what Shen Nian meant by his words.
"What did you say?"
"I said, my brother is really blind to take a fancy to you, he is still unknown whether he is alive or dead, you are hooking up here, and you are embarrassed to ask me something? It's really thick-skinned! ”
Shen Nian's gaze at Tang Li was full of contempt, she really couldn't understand how her brother could fall in love with this kind of woman, it was really incomprehensible. After listening to Shen Nian's explanation, Tang Li understood the meaning of her words, and couldn't help frowning slightly, with displeasure on his face.
Seeing that Tang Li didn't speak, Shen Nian thought that Tang Li was already weak-hearted, so he continued: "How about it, I said it, right?" What are you pretending to be, really, when I see my brother, I will tell him everything you did! Look at how you quibble then! Hum! ”
Shen Nian's words made Tang Li's brows furrow tighter and tighter, but thinking that they were still locked up in prison and their lives were hanging by a thread, where could they still tolerate infighting, so they could only hold back their anger and look at Shen Nian with some annoyance.
"Shen Nian, you don't like me, but you can't question the relationship between me and Shen Yanzhi, it's a matter between the two of us, it has nothing to do with you, and I don't need to explain it to you, not to mention that you are clear about the situation of the two of us at the moment, we have to cooperate to get out of here, if you really want to make trouble, then you have to wait until we go out."
Hearing Tang Li's words, Shen Nian's face changed, she didn't expect Tang Li to say such a high-sounding word to her, and a wave of anger suddenly rose in her heart.
"Hehe, what a joke, if it weren't for you, how could my brother be taken away by Dajiao? Don't tell me that it has nothing to do with you, I don't believe you, with my brother's skills, it is impossible to be easily arrested, if you have to find a reason, it must be because of you, it must be because of you, you must be dragging him back. ”
Shen Nian glared at Tang Carp fiercely as he spoke, Tang Carp's heart trembled when he was stared at, and his face suddenly sank.
Although she also wanted to refute Shen Nian's words, she did feel a little guilty if she really investigated it, after all, Shen Yanzhi took the initiative to kill Da Jiao because Da Jiao attacked her first, which provoked Shen Yanzhi to make a move, so she was entangled by Da Jiao, and she was obviously closest to Shen Yanzhi but did not save him, which also made her blame herself.
She also thought that if she and Shen Yanzhi had fought side by side at that time, maybe things would not have evolved into what they are now, but things have happened, and it is useless to regret it, the most important thing for her now is to leave here safely and rescue Shen Yanzhi from Da Jiao's hands with her own hands.
"Don't worry, as long as I live for a day, I will definitely find him."
Tang Li lowered his head and said softly, with a resolute taste in his tone, which made people shudder. Looking at Tang Li, who had become depressed again, Shen Nian didn't bother to quarrel with her anymore, snorted coldly, pursed his lips disdainfully, and didn't speak again.
The two of them waited in the prison for a whole day, and it became dark in the room, only when a little moonlight fell, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside the cell, Tang Li's two immediately raised their heads vigilantly, looked in the direction of the window together, their faces showed excitement, as the footsteps got closer and closer, Tang Li's heart beat faster and faster, and his heart was full of nervousness and expectation.
"Squeak---
At that moment, the door of the prison was pushed open, and a figure slowly walked in.
Tang Li and Shen Nian looked intently at the person who walked in, it was a white-haired old man, who looked about sixty or seventy years old, his beard was gray, unlike other people's animal skin clothes, he was wearing a wide golden robe embroidered with strange symbols, he looked very noble, he was not tall, and he looked a little weak, but his whole body exuded a domineering aura that was not angry and mighty, and his eyes were as sharp as a blade, as if he could see through people's hearts in an instant.
Looking at the momentum exuded by the old man, although Tang Li had never seen him, Tang Li also guessed that the old man in front of him must be the chief mentioned in the mouth of the warrior.
And Tang Li's guess was correct, the old man who walked in was the chief of the Hannu tribe on the island at his feet, his sharp eyes scanned everything in this space, and finally stayed on Tang Li's body, which was different from his non-angry and self-authoritative momentum, his face showed a smile, and his eyes also had a touch of love.
"The two of you are finally awake."
Hearing this, Tang Li nodded, stepped forward and saluted respectfully, and said, "You are the chief!" Thanks to the care of the seniors, the younger generations can get out of danger safely, and I am really grateful. ”
"Girl, you don't have to be polite, I don't know why the two of you came all the way to my Hannu tribe island?"
"Chief Chief, our trip was originally to transport goods to the west, who knew that on the way we encountered a fierce Jiao, our sailboat was attacked and sunk by it, so we went around and unintentionally floated here, please believe that we came to your island without the slightest malice, and please let us go, we can leave your island as soon as possible, so as not to cause you more trouble."
"Da Jiao?" The chief smiled slightly, and the folds on his face seemed to have become much more, and he said with a smile: "The girl said that you are laughing, where did you come from in my clan, if you want to say that there is a dragon, there happens to be one, I think, girl, you may have seen it wrong?" ”
The chief nodded slightly, the kindness on his face was even worse, he stared directly at Tang Li, and there was a faint fierce aura under the kindness. Tang Li felt the fierce momentum that shot at her from the chief's eyes, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned, she didn't know how to answer for a while, she felt that this old chief seemed to care about Da Jiao very much, and seemed to be biased, obviously it was Jiaolong but he had to say that he was a divine dragon, could it be that he had something to do with Da Jiao?
The chief saw the hesitation on Tang Li's face, so he continued: "Girl, don't think hard, you must be mistaken, Lord Shenlong is a supreme divine beast that has been protecting our clan since ancient times, and it will never attack your sailboat, I think, your ship should have sunk after hitting a reef, right?" ”
The chief's sharp eyes shot again, Tang Li's heart sank, and he couldn't help but recall the appearance of the big Jiao that night, whether it was a Jiao or a dragon, Tang Li couldn't tell at all, but Tang Li knew that it must have been Jiao that attacked them that day, and it was a very big Jiao, and it was a very big Jiao, and the gloomy aura it revealed and the pair of blood-glittering eyes told him that it must not be a dragon!
Looking at the chief's slightly coercive look, Tang Li felt that the matter behind this was definitely not so simple, but at the moment, his life was still in the hands of the person in front of him, and Chen Zhuangshi and Xinglin were nowhere to be found, if he wanted to kill himself, I am afraid it would be as simple as pinching an ant to death, and it was best for him to do what he said, otherwise let alone looking for Shen Yanzhi, it is uncertain whether he can get out of this prison.
Thinking of this, Tang Li sighed slightly in his heart, and said with a harmless smile on his face: "Yes!" It was our fright that we misremembered. ”
Tang Li's words made Shen Nian squint his eyes slightly, and a look of disdain flashed on his face.
At this time, the chief seemed to be very satisfied with Tang Li's answer, the smile on his face was even thicker, and his eyes were not as sharp as just now, he smiled and nodded, and then turned around and prepared to leave the dark room.
