Chapter 123: Red Wolf
The so-called demon pill is the core of all their energy sources that exist in their bodies since the birth of demon beasts, and it is the core of all their energy sources.
Demon beasts often fight each other and devour each other's demon pills to continuously enhance their own cultivation. And for human beings, the demon pill is an excellent material for refining weapons and medicines. For this reason, there are also many monks who specialize in hunting demon beasts and seizing demon pills in exchange for the required cultivation resources.
After this battle, the flesh and blood on the bodies of these hundred or so wolf corpses were enough for the tribe to survive this winter, and not only that, but the hair, teeth, claws and other items on the wolf corpses could be sold for a good price. In the coming year, the tribe will be more prosperous.
The sacrificed warriors will go to a warm land with supreme glory, and their deeds will always be remembered by the living and passed on from generation to generation.
At this point, the footsteps of the hunting team will turn back, and the journey of the three Qingya to find the secret of the mechanism will continue.
At night, the people lit a bonfire, and the fresh wolf meat gradually exuded an enticing aroma in the boiling pot with various spices, and they took out the few but long-cherished wine jugs to celebrate the aftermath of the catastrophe and the harvest.
After several days of trekking and struggling to die, the hunters were already hungry, but none of them lifted the lid of the pot, because the first chopsticks were reserved for their most respected guests.
The Great Elder drew the dagger that had never been unsheathed at his waist, the unopened blade and the ruby embedded in the hilt, proving that it was a symbol of power and glory.
The rising heat filled the aroma of meat, and the Great Elder cut off a piece of wolf leg meat and respectfully handed it to Qingya.
"Thanks to the rescue of our distinguished guests, my Yehe tribe was able to escape. From now on, the gate of the Yehe tribe will always be open for the three distinguished guests, and the warriors of our clan will also be at the disposal of the distinguished guests. ”
The Great Elder handed the wolf meat to Qingya along with the dagger in his hand, and called Tanashushu behind him as well.
"Shu Shu is the most beautiful and heroic girl in my clan, if you don't dislike it, let her be a maid by your side."
As he spoke, the Great Elder directly pulled Tana Shushu and pushed him into Qingya's arms.
"What?"
Tana Shushu was not good at refuting the Great Elder's order, so he was pushed and leaned towards Qingya, but Qingya hid behind Hua Qing'er very wittily.
This kind of thing will be handed over to Sister Qing'er to deal with.
Hua Qing'er opened her hands to stop Tana Shushu, took her in her arms, and rejected the Great Elder with a smile:
"I'm really sorry Great Elder, we are only the youngest generation of disciples in the sect now, and the mountain gate stipulates that ordinary disciples must do everything themselves, and they are not allowed to bring maids."
When she said this, Hua Qing'er obviously felt that her body trembled suddenly when she leaned against her Tanashushu.
"Since Shu Shu can't enter the eyes of the nobles, let's do it, Shu Shu, you will leave the tribe after you go back, the nobles don't look down on you, you are already an abandoned girl, and the dragon god will not allow a defiled woman like you to continue to stay in the tribe."
"Huh?"
The Great Elder's words were not shocking and endless, which made the brains of the three of them turn all of a sudden.
"You're serious?" Hua Qing'er confirmed with him again.
"The clan rules inherited by the tribe cannot be shaken by one person." Again, the Great Elder reiterated firmly.
"What he said, is it true?" Hua Qing'er took Tanashushu's hands and asked again.
Tana Shushu didn't answer, but Hua Qing'er looked at her red eyes and tears that couldn't stop rolling, and she already knew the answer.
This girl, even when facing the wolves and demon beasts, did not frown her brows, but she burst into tears just because of the order of the great elder.
"What kind of rules are you? Do you treat others as goods to be traded at will? The decree of Fuxia clearly stipulates that no one shall interfere with the personal liberty of others, and it is her freedom to go wherever Miss Tana wants, and what right do you have to make your own decisions, ah? ”
Hua Qing'er wiped the tears from Tanashu's eyes with her cuffs while loudly reprimanding the Great Elder.
The people below saw that they were rude to the Great Elder, even if they were life-saving benefactors, many people still wanted to step forward to refute Hua Qing'er, but they were all retreated by the Great Elder with a look.
"Please forgive me, the law of the ancestors is immutable, and we have been blessed by the dragon for generations to multiply, and every woman in the clan is destined by the dragon god. Under the divination, Shu Shu's destination is this young man. ”
As he spoke, the Great Elder discharged eight ancient copper coins from his thick cuffs, which were not the coins that were popular today, but were engraved with intricate inscriptions and dragon totems, proving that they were indeed used for divination.
"Great Elder, we have to believe in science, feudal superstition is unacceptable."
At this time, Qingya also walked from behind Hua Qing'er, but his tone was much softer.
"Great Elder, each of us is an independent individual, he does not have to be attached to anyone, and he should never be controlled by anyone, even gods. It is because we have a complete mind that we are distinguished from those animals, we are human beings, not the family of gods, can you understand when I say this? ”
Seeing that he was silent, Qingya had no choice but to continue to explain:
"Miss Shu Shu, she is talented, brave and fearless, and her appearance is so outstanding, she is an existence that should be cherished wherever she goes, don't you think it's a pity that you abandoned such a girl?"
"Guest, it's you, not us, who abandoned her."
"You...... I ......"
No matter how eloquent Qingya is, it is also a momentary speechless at this time.
"They have been servants of God for too long, and that kind of humility has been engraved in their bones, and they can't change it."
Autumn Pond Rain explained to Qingya on the side.
"I see that the little girl is so beautiful and smart, since you don't want it, why don't you come to my house and be a little girl for me."
The two Qingya sisters and brothers glanced at each other and felt that this move was feasible.
"Miss Tana, are you willing to follow this sister to Chang'an City?"
Hua Qing'er didn't ask the Great Elder, and directly asked Tana Shushu in her arms.
"Shu Shu is willing to obey the arrangement of the three."
Alas, Qingya couldn't help but sigh in her heart, such a heroic girl should have been brave to pursue her own life, but she was firmly bound by this invisible rule, when can everyone be equal in this world?
Qiu Chiyu pulled Tana Shushu from Hua Qing'er's arms, untied a red coral gilt earring attached to her earlobe, and took out a stack of silver tickets and put them in her hand.
"We still have important things to do on this trip, it is too dangerous to continue to move forward, so you will walk out of the forest with the team early tomorrow morning, and then go to Chang'an. After arriving in Chang'an City, go to Qixia Mansion in Wan'an Street, Dongshi, you give this earring to the guards guarding the door, they will know that you are my person, you can live in peace in the house, and wait for us to come back, okay? ”
Akiike Yu's warm smile like a spring breeze soothed the panic in the girl's heart, and she carefully hid what Akiike Rain handed her and nodded gently. She knows that from tomorrow, she will usher in a new life.
At this time, a gust of wind blew from nowhere, mixed with the wind and snow, and people couldn't open their eyes.
The wind swept quickly, and Qingya looked around, and only then did he feel relieved to see that everyone was safe and sound. I don't know where the wind came from, so disturbing Yaxing. This blow blew out the fire, blew the meat cold, and had to cook it for a while.
"Boy, things are a little bit wrong."
At this time, Qiu Chiyu said a mysterious word to the sky.
"Sister Qiu, what's not so good?"
Hua Qing'er asked curiously.
"That old man, it seems to be true, in the gust of wind just now, I felt a powerful force, it is the dragon pressure that belongs to the dragon clan alone, I am afraid that in the deepest part of this forest sea, there is really a dragon that has survived from ancient times, it is very powerful, but it will definitely not be a dragon god.
Moreover, it really got into karma with me through this little girl, and once I showed the power of the dragons, as long as I was in this polar ridge, it would immediately lock my position. I don't know if the other party is friend or foe at the moment, I'm afraid I won't be able to help you on this trip. ”
Qingya was a little surprised by this mysterious concept, he didn't expect that there was such a mysterious power in the world, but he still expressed relief to Qiu Chiyu:
"It's okay Senior Qiu, we're here to find someone, not to fight, so you don't have to make a move."
Then, Qingya turned his head and walked to the Great Elder's side and asked him if he knew the location of the Mo family. But just as Qingya expected, no number of capable people in the world could find the traces of the Mo family, how could they know about a small tribe.
Qingya didn't expect them to provide useful clues, but now that they have found nothing, there is no psychological gap.
At dawn the next day, the three of them said goodbye to the hunting team and prepared to continue to look for the traces of the Mo family.
"Sister Qiu, Sister Qing'er, and Prince Qingya, I will pray to the dragon god and pray that you can return safely. Also, you must not cross the boundary of 500 kilometers, the demon beast has already crossed over, something must have happened inside, I have a bad premonition. ”
At the time of parting, Tanashursu lowered his head and said goodbye to the three of them in a soft voice.
"Don't worry, Miss Tana, we're here to find someone. I don't think anyone will make their home in the depths of the forest, so we won't go far. ”
After receiving the assurance, Tanashu also left with the people with peace of mind.
After bidding farewell to everyone's backs, the originally bustling forest suddenly became deserted, and the air around seemed to have become fierce and biting.
"It seems that you still refuse to give up, are you planning to die?"
Qiu Chiyu stared at the snowdrift in the deep forest in the distance, as if talking to someone, Qingya directly threw out a sword light, slashing on the snowdrift, only to see a pillar of blood gushing out from the ground in an instant, staining the surrounding snow red.
"Howl~"
From all sides, there was an endless howl of wolves, and hundreds of silver wolves emerged from under the snow. They shook off the snow, and their fur changed from silver to cyan, and more often to red.
The red wolf is already equivalent to the strength of a human monk in the later stage of foundation building.
