70 escaped
The night watchman was seen sitting in front of the fire and snorting and sleeping. The two hid in the shadows, sneaked to the cave of the spring, and entered the cave with their feet on their feet.
"Who?" Izumi suddenly rolled over and sat up, pulling out the stone knife.
"Me, Big Tree." The leopard said in a low voice.
The three of them grew up together, and they knew who it was by listening to the voice?
Quan put down the stone knife, waited for the two of them to sit on the animal skin, stepped forward and lowered his voice and asked eagerly, "Have you really found the leader of Yaohu?" What did you guys do to him? ”
The big tree whispered: "The leader is fine, Hua Pheasant and Li, and the third son were killed by the leader, and the peach ......" The two of them did not hide the spring, and told the story of the incident one by one.
Izumi relaxed after hearing this, thinking that Hua Pheasant and Li were all dead, and Peach was tied up outside the tribe, and it seemed that Big Tree and Leopard were ready to join the tribe of the leader of Yaohu.
He sat back on the hide, looked at the two of them and said, "How are they doing?" Yaohu Leader and Dashi, are their injuries healed? ”
"Well, they're doing well, and they're eating food like we've never eaten before......" The tree told Izumi what they had seen and heard on the mountain.
Izumi smiled and said straight to the point: "The leader also invited you to eat food, have you already joined the leader's tribe?" ”
"Yes," the leopard nodded and said, "We have joined the Yaoshan tribe of the leader of Yaohu, and we are here to tell you that tomorrow morning you will take Uncle Ah Chun, Uncle Ah Qiu, Changmu and my grandmother to the forest under the low mountain, and we will wait for you there." ”
"Okay." Izumi responded without hesitation. Thinking about it and looking at the big tree again, "Aren't you going to say a word to Dongxue?" ”
Big Tree nodded, "She knows, tomorrow you tell my mother the news, and they will go directly to the forest to find us." Remember to tell them not to take anything with you. ”
"These are the hides I hid, you take them first." Izumi rolled the hide and gave it to the two of them.
Quan paused, "Also, as soon as it dawns in the past two days, Big Eminem wants them to go out to collect, and we will go there earlier." Take advantage of the fact that you don't have any substitutions, so let's go! ”
The two nodded, carried the animal skin and cat out of the cave, and disappeared into the night at the foot of the mountain.
As soon as the sky was brightened, people began to move outside, and the women poured the mashed corn into a stone pot, boiled it for a while, put in the wild vegetables, and waited for Da Eminem to distribute the food.
After a while, Da Eminem came with a wooden spoon and scooped a bowl into the bowl of the person holding the wooden bowl, muttering from time to time, "Hurry up and eat, go out to collect it, go farther, and don't come back if you don't collect food." ”
Izumi stood at the entrance of the cave and watched a thin, gray-haired man squatting in the corner with a bowl, snoring and drinking the porridge in the bowl. When he finished drinking and walked towards the cave with the bowl, Quan walked over and pretended not to pay attention to hit him, and whispered in his ear as he held him: "Uncle Chun, take Dongxue and them to the low mountain later, don't bring anything." ”
"Okay." Uncle Chun thought that they hadn't come back after they left, and his heart jumped with excitement. After putting the bowl down, he took the bamboo knife to the cave of Asen's house and shouted, Asen and Dongxue walked out with the bamboo knife, and the three of them followed the few people waiting there towards the outside of the tribe.
Seeing that they were all gone, Quan slipped out while no one was paying attention, and saw the gatherers walking towards the mountain in groups, and he dodged and quickly walked to the woods outside the tribe, where he caught up with Uncle Chun and the others.
A group of about a dozen people walked quickly towards the side of the low mountain.
The big tree and the leopard sat on the tree and waited anxiously. At dawn, I finally saw Izumi come with them.
The two climbed down the tree with animal skins and food on their backs, and Izumi and Uncle Chun also saw the two of them and ran over excitedly.
Ah Sen said happily to Dongxue: "Mother, it's Uncle Da Shu. ”
Dongxue smiled and nodded, "Hmm! ”
Izumi said to the tree, "Hurry up, the beaver should have eaten good food and is ready to go out hunting." ”
"Okay," said the big tree and the leopard, tearing open the roasted food and handing it to a few people, "as they ate, they walked, and the peaches were still tied to the forest in front of them." ”
"Asen, come, Uncle will carry you." The big tree picked up Arsen and ran forward quickly.

The fire beaver came out of the cave and saw the black badger standing there with a dozen or so people waiting for him, "It's time to go, why hasn't the spring come yet?" ”
A strong black man said, "I saw the spring go to the woods to pull poop. ”
The black badger looked at the fire civet and said flatteringly: "There are many lazy people, you go and call him." ”
The black man walked towards the forest, and after a while, he ran back, "There is no one in the forest, I will go to his cave to see, is it back to sleep?" ”
The fire civet nodded without annoyance, watched him run over and over again, and said breathlessly, "Chief, the spring is not in the cave. ”
"Is the hide still there?" The fire beaver asked with a dark face.
"Yes." The man nodded honestly.
Things are still there, where will people go? The beaver couldn't figure it out. Looking at the black badger, he said, "You take someone to ask if anyone has seen him." ”
The black badger came back from a run with the men, and said to the fire cat, "Chief, the spring has been seen heading towards the forest to the south. ”
"Is it too late for him to go to Yaohu to report to him? It's time for them to come back today. The beaver suddenly felt something bad and shouted, "Go, hurry up and take a look." ”
The black badger ran towards the outside of the tribe with a few men.
They have already arrived under the tree with peaches tied, "Don't delay, hurry up, I'll put him down and chase you." ”
Everyone nodded, and continued to hurry, the leopard quickly climbed to the tree, put the peach staring at him fiercely under the tree, untied the rope in his hand, and said, "Let's go, you go back by yourself!" Before he could finish speaking, he ran as fast as he could.
Peach untied the rope on his legs, stood up and fell to the ground, cursing: "Big tree, leopard, the gods will not let you go, you must not die well." ”
After cursing, he felt that he was still angry, so he kept cursing in a low voice, sat on the ground angrily, rubbed his hungry stomach, and rubbed his legs for a while before he got up and ran in the direction of the tribe.
Ran to the side of the low hill and saw the black badger running towards this side with a few people, "Black badger, go and tell the leader that the big tree and the leopard have run away with the spring." ”
When the black badger heard this, he was shocked and shouted, "Okay, you follow the peach and chase the big tree, and I will go and tell the chief." The black badger turned and ran.
Peach ran a little hard, sat on the ground, and said weakly, "Give me some food first, I haven't eaten for two days." ”
The black man took out a piece of meat from a leather bag and handed it to him, "Peach, Big Tree and Leopard have run away, where are the pheasants?" ”
