Chapter 37: The Guardian Beast
"Let's all go back!"
Fengxi stopped in front of the "crack" in the valley, turned around and waved at everyone under the reluctant gaze of Ma and his people.
"Adult ......"
At this moment, Ma was standing at the front of all the clansmen, looking at Fengxi with a pair of eyes, and his eyes gradually began to splash a little.
All along, he had stubbornly believed that he didn't need the help of anyone else, and he didn't trust anyone, even those of his people.
Convinced that he could only survive by leaving the tribe that had been invaded by the invincible beast, he took his people out of there in search of a new tribe.
He was convinced that this valley was their new tribe, so he chose it without hesitation.
Even if along the way, every night, one tribesman after another disappeared silently, even if the tribesmen were unwilling to continue to move forward because of fear in their hearts, he would rather show that ruthless gesture and persecute his own people, but he never wavered in his heart because of this.
He has always been wary of all living beings outside, even if Fengxi appeared at the beginning, knowing that he has power that no one can ever have, is it the fear of power in his heart? Or is it trust in fellow humans? Or do you have a bit of a desire to use it? Perhaps only he knew this in his own heart.
Even, in order not to let Fengxi affect his prestige in the hearts of the tribesmen, to prevent shaking his position in the hearts of the tribesmen, and even more so to prevent the tribesmen from being favored by him like himself, he deliberately did not tell them where Fengxi was in the jungle.
Only when all the clansmen were resting and sleeping, did one person quietly find Fengxi.
Feng Xi also knew his little caution in his heart, he didn't want these people to become dependent on him, just pushed the boat along the river, and since the first night, he rarely appeared in front of his people again.
Only when Ma finds him will he show up.
The use of flames was not actually discovered by Ma, but the night before, Fengxi showed him how to make torches in front of him, and taught him how to use flames to drive away wild beasts.
All this, if you don't talk about it, Fengxi will naturally not take the initiative to say it.
After finding the valley, Fengxi fulfilled his promise and granted him the power he had always longed for.
This approach also gave Ma enough reason in his heart to leave his clan behind and go alone to find Fengxi.
During the day, he was busy leading his people to establish new tribes in the jungle. At night, he came to Fengxi and asked how to practice.
Whenever the tribe encounters a dilemma, Ma will look for Fengxi as soon as possible and find a solution from the other party's mouth.
Fengxi didn't seem to see anything, or maybe he never appeared in front of his people alone, and he didn't hide everything he told him about Ma's advice.
All of this, but unconsciously, all the thoughts in Ma's heart have been wiped out little by little, and when he learned that Fengxi was leaving, he suddenly realized that he didn't know when he started, the former vigilance had long since disappeared, leaving only a heart that had been filled with reverence.
"Well, take good care of the tribe, and I'll watch you in front of the witch!" Feng Xi looked at the silently weeping and said softly.
He glanced at the tiger-shaped beast that was following him not far away, and after meeting his gaze, it suddenly stopped, turned its head to glance to the side.
"Come here!" Seeing this, Fengxi smiled and beckoned to it.
He had long discovered that the tiger-shaped beast seemed to possess a spirit beyond ordinary beasts, and after subduing it, Feng Xi sensed that it seemed to contain some kind of foreign beast's bloodline in its body.
I saw that the tiger-shaped beast heard this, and immediately ran to Feng Xi with steps, lowered its head, and gently attached it to Feng Xi's leg.
Then he raised his tiger head and looked at him expectantly.
When Fengxi saw it like this, he didn't understand its thoughts, this tiger beast clearly saw the benefits of following him, and wanted to leave with him.
He shook his head with a smile, and suddenly reached out and stroked it lightly on its forehead.
With a slight red glow, a three-horizontal and one-vertical mark appeared in the center of its forehead.
The tiger-shaped beast's body froze, and then he found that a powerful force in his body was slowly emerging, and he quickly raised his head and looked at Fengxi with a look of surprise.
"Okay, the bloodline in your body, I've opened it for you!"
Fengxi patted its head lightly, and he gave the beast the power of the witch pattern and stimulated the hidden blood of the beast within it.
"But!"
However, Fengxi's subsequent words made the originally excited it suddenly droop its head,
"You don't have to follow me!"
"Follow me, it may not be safe here!"
"Roar!" I saw the tiger-shaped beast roar, its head shaking like a rattle, and it seemed that it did not want to stay at all.
"What a cunning brute!"
Feng Xi scolded with a smile,
"Ma is also a witch, and after he masters the witch pattern, he can also help you awaken the bloodline!"
"Protect them well, and one day in the future, you will become a strange beast!"
As he spoke, he patted it on the head, with a tone that could not be refused.
Sensing Feng Xi's fingertips falling on his forehead, the tiger-shaped beast was full of excitement, as if he was afraid that Feng Xi would take back the power given to him, and hurriedly nodded.
Seeing this, Feng Xi removed his hand from the witch pattern on his head, and he turned his head to look at him.
"Well, I told you that Wu's cultivation has a price!"
"While we have the power to surpass mortal spirits, we also need to pay a price that mortal spirits can't bear!"
As he spoke, he pointed to the somewhat depressed tiger-shaped beast next to him,
"The tiger will become the guardian beast of the tribe, help you protect this place, and as a price, you will help it transform in the future!"
Ma Wenyan's face couldn't help but flash a hint of joy, and even the sadness that Fengxi was leaving was dispelled a lot.
This is the only entrance and exit of the valley, and only by guarding this place and preventing the beasts from sneaking in will the tribe be truly safe.
These days, he has been thinking about how to protect this place, it's not that he hasn't thought about letting his clansmen guard this place, but he also knows in his heart that these powerless clansmen alone can't stop the beast's attack at all.
With Fengxi staying in the tribe, Ma naturally does not have to worry about encountering wild beasts, and can rest assured that the "crack" will be left unguarded, even if he leads the tribe out to hunt, he never worries that the tribe will be attacked.
But after Fengxi left, the only entrance and exit of this valley became the first problem to be considered in front of him!
Now that this tiger beast was guarding the entrance and exit of the valley, he didn't have to worry about the beasts outside running in and attacking the tribe.
"My lord, don't worry, after I become a witch, I will definitely help it transform!" Ma immediately said.
