Chapter Thirty-Three: Sneaky, Map?
Su Xun went out with people, and Su Yu was waiting in the tribe.
After Su Xun sent Ji Ni a few kilometers down the river, he pretended to return. In fact, he took people around a bend and then secretly followed them.
After seeing Su Xun and the others leave, Ji Ni and his party did not continue to walk downstream along the big river, but entered the forest, as if they were looking for something.
Su Xun followed behind, he didn't get closer, but watched from a long distance. He has good eyesight and can see people even from a few hundred meters away.
Ji Ni and they were very cautious, and every step they took had to cover up the footprints on the snow behind them.
If it weren't for Su Xun's talent to be good at tracking, he might have been dumped by him.
"Brother Xun, they are really enough chicken thieves, so cautious."
"It's sneaky and doesn't look like he's doing anything good."
A young man next to Su Xun looked at those people in the distance, and the more he looked at it, the more unpleasant it became.
"No wonder the patriarch told us to follow them." Su Xun could probably guess what they were sneaking up on now.
They kept groping around the tribe, obviously trying to find out where the tribe was.
Su Xun knew very well what the consequences of the tribe's location being exposed, the location of the tribe's old camp before was not known by which tribe, and then it was invaded.
"You go back and tell the patriarch to let the patriarch send us someone and arrest them directly." Su Xun said to the young man.
"Good!" The young man nodded, and immediately returned to the tribe along the road.
Su Xun watched them clean up the footprints behind them, and continued to move, immediately leading the reconnaissance team to follow.
……
"Stop!"
As soon as Su Xun raised his hand, he saw Ji Ni in front of him stop, took out something from the package, and then squatted on the ground, as if he was laying something.
Su Xun saw him holding something on the ground again.
Now Ji Ni and they are not far from the tribe, as long as they walk out of that wood, there is a plain behind them, and they can see the tribe's camp at a glance.
"Why hasn't the patriarch come yet?" Su Xun was a little anxious in his heart, if the reinforcements didn't come again, he would take the reconnaissance team with him. These people must not be let go, or the tribe will be exposed.
In the rear, there were cavalry shuttling through the woods, following the footprints left by Su Xun and them.
The tribe's cavalry now has more than thirty horses, and there are more than thirty warriors who can ride horses. At this time, they led the infantry of the tribe and advanced quickly through the forest.
The warrior who sat on the horse was envious, and it felt like he was flying on the horse.
Su Xun couldn't wait any longer, and they were going to run away if they waited for Ji Ni.
Su Xun hunched his back in the snow, crawling forward on the snow.
In his experience, it is much faster to move forward on your stomach on the snow than to walk.
And it is not easy to be noticed by people from a distance when lying on your stomach like this. Unfortunately, there are no white clothes, which are a great protective color for hiding in winter.
Thinking of this, Su Xun saw the white fur on Ji Ni's body, and his eyes were very red.
Calm down, the distance between Su Xun and Ji Ni and his party is getting closer and closer.
At a distance of only more than a hundred meters from Ji Ni and them, Su Xun stopped moving, relying on the cover of the bushes, Su Xun's location was very well hidden.
Su Xun just lay on the snow to observe them, and at such a close distance, Su Xun could clearly see what Ji Ni was doing.
He was holding a black charcoal block, scribbling on a piece of animal skin, Su Xun saw the things on the animal skin clearly, it was a strange pattern, Su Xun couldn't understand it.
But Su Xun didn't want to think about it, no matter what it was, just grab it later.
The distance between Su Xun and them was an open space, only a few small trees and a few large stones exposed the snowy surface, it can be said that there was no cover at all, and they would be found if they ran out of this bush.
"Wait for me to make a gesture, you will go out together, pay attention, our first target is that Ji Ni, unless the others threaten their safety, don't care." Su Xun knew very well that the main thing was a quick battle, but he couldn't spend it with them, after all, there were more of them than his side, and they didn't have an advantage in numbers at all.
Su Xun was optimistic about the timing and was about to wave his hand.
Just as he was halfway through the wave of his hand, suddenly a horse roared in the distance.
A horse appeared in Su Xun's sight, and a young man was driving it on the back of the horse.
Immediately after that, more horses appeared, slowly surrounding Ji Ni and them.
Ji Ni also heard the sound of horses, he quickly packed up the animal skins on the ground, and shouted, "Hurry up!" ”
It's just that it's too late, they are surrounded, and in the face of an enemy several times their size, they simply can't resist.
Watching these enemies riding strange animals slowly approaching, Ji Ni had no choice, they had weapons, but the weapons were all stone spears, and they couldn't attack the enemies in the distance, and now that they were surrounded, they couldn't run.
The cavalry surrounded them in a fixed-sized circle, and they could not attack the cavalry, nor did they dare to approach.
"What are you doing here? After the transaction, they followed us. Ji Ni asked loudly.
At this time, Su Yu also rode over on horseback.
Seeing Ji Ni who was surrounded, Su Yu couldn't help but want to laugh.
This place is very close to the tribe's camp, but I didn't expect it to be really sneaking around looking for a location.
"Patriarch, I saw these ......" Su Xun immediately stepped forward to tell Su Yu what he saw when he was tracking.
"Paint on animal skins?" Su Yu immediately thought of something, he might be drawing a map.
If it's a map, then this time it's a big gain.
Su Yu got off his horse, took his saber, and walked to the side of the encirclement.
When Ji Ni saw Su Yu, he immediately shouted loudly: "Why are you surrounding us, this is dishonest behavior."
"Integrity?" Su Yu was a little funny, this Ji Ni still knew integrity, and he questioned him about this.
"You are wandering around my territory, you must not be on your way, are you? Do you want to know the location of our tribe? ”
"We're not ......" Ji Ni wanted to argue, but was immediately interrupted by Su Yu.
"You don't have to argue, it doesn't matter if you are or not, surrender obediently now, it's better not to resist, otherwise your safety will not be guaranteed."
After speaking, Su Yu pulled out the Tang knife, and the sunlight shone on the blade, reflecting a dazzling light.
Seeing the sharp blade in Su Yu's hand, Ji Ni instinctively felt a great threat.
So far, Ji Ni has no way to get out, so he can only save his life first.
Ji Ni told her entourage to lay down their weapons.
"Hands up, don't resist." Su Xun shouted.
Ji Ni did the same, and let the warriors of the tribe tie their hands behind their backs.
"Bring them back to the Horde!"
"Yes, Patriarch!"
