Chapter 118: A Tribe Raided by Beasts
However, just based on the footprints, Leng Yi couldn't judge anything;
After all, the road is a ramp to the wind, and there is so little dust left on the road that leaves not many marks, but beyond the dust, there is a gravel floor that is extremely hard;
The land of the Western Wilderness is extremely hard, so hard that Leng Yi can't step on the deep footprints with a 10,000-pound hammer, so the gravel ground is as clean as any Gobi Desert in the Western Wilderness;
Leng Yi raised his head again and walked carefully on the hard ramp to the old dark gate, although the door was hidden, it still couldn't stop the heavy smell of blood inside the door;
Dead tribes, broken gates, pungent blood, and the slightest hint of resentment over the tribe;
Leng Yi always felt as if he was heading towards a dangerous place full of unknowns;
"Squeak......"
With a scalp-tinging friction sound, Leng Yi gently pushed open the heavy iron door, and the moment the iron door was pushed open, Leng Yi's eyes couldn't help but narrow, and he gasped at the same time;
Damn it!
Really......
Behind the gate was a main road two feet wide, and on either side of the main road were dense barbarian earthen houses, low, dilapidated, dark and narrow, and the weeds on the roofs made an inaudible trembling sound in the bitter cold wind, which was particularly eerie in this dead and silent tribe;
What's even more bizarre is that as far as the eye can see, you can only see the long main road, the broken earthen walls, the crooked carts, and the broken doors and windows......
There were shocking pools of blood everywhere!
Just look at the bloodstains that have turned black, and you can tell that they have been congealed for several days;
However, it was not only the congealed blood stains that made Leng Yi gasp, but also the blood stains on the side of the main road, at the foot of the wall, on the threshold, and even on the broken windows......
It turned out to be a bloodstained corpse, and these corpses ......
It turned out to be an old man with gray hair and a big body!
"How can it be the corpse of an old man?" Leng Yi frowned and stepped into the tribe with suspicion in his eyes, this was obviously not a simple village slaughter......
It was only after Leng Yi stepped into the gate that he found that there were several corpses of young and middle-aged barbarians lying under the high wall next to the gate, and at their hands were blood-stained iron knives;
This indicates that the people of the tribe resisted, and it was extremely hasty;
Even......
There was even sporadic resistance at the gates;
Leng Yi walked in the dead and silent tribe, but he did not find any traces of battle, and he did not find the corpse of a young man;
What kind of force could make the huge tribe, at least more than 2,000 people, give up resistance in an instant?
"Squeak, squeak;"
The bitter cold wind blew through the lifeless tribe, and the tattered doors and windows closed and opened again, far and near, making the blood-smelling tribe look even more eerie;
"Damn, what the hell is going on?"
Leng Yi cautiously walked on the bloodstained main road, looking at the white-haired corpse, Leng Yi's teeth couldn't help but cluck;
There were only the corpses of the old men, which clearly indicated that the intruders did not want the old people at all, but in order to cover up something, they slaughtered all the old people;
Is this what people do?
Leng Yi didn't find any traces of fighting with swords and feet, if this qiē was done by people, it would be impossible to have no resistance;
As a last resort, Leng Yi opened several old corpses, but found that the wounds on the corpses were all parallel and deep visible bone cuts, with as few as three rows parallel and as many as four parallel;
According to Leng Yi's experience, the only thing that can leave such a wound is the claws of the fierce beast!
Moreover, Leng Yi also saw a large number of fierce beast paw prints and hoof prints in the floating ash layer next to the wall......
Could it be that this tribe has been attacked by a herd of beasts?
But what made Leng Yi feel wrong was how could the settlement that had been attacked by the beast herd be so complete? This kind of earthen house, not to mention the fierce beast with rough skin and thick flesh, even if a person kicked it, it was estimated that the wall would collapse;
Moreover, how could a fierce beast eat people so cleanly? The huge tribe did not leave a single corpse or broken flesh and bones?
What's more, Leng Yi had never heard of a fierce beast eating people and picking fat and thin, how could he leave only the corpse of the old man?
However, it seems that only the herd of beasts can make the huge tribe give up resistance in an instant, after all, in the face of the powerful beast herd, the resistance of mortals is so insignificant;
In this way, it can be judged that after the people of the tribe gave up their resistance in an instant, all the young and middle-aged people were taken captive by the fierce beasts, as for the children......
But what did the beast do with so many young people? Surely it wasn't for food......
Leng Yi walked to the center of the tribe with a grim face, and the cold light in his eyes became more and more gloomy, and it was certain that the same tragic situation was in the villages he passed by, large and small;
Organized, scaled, purposeful;
The Great Wilderness Beast......
Goblin!
Leng Yi's eyes widened suddenly, and he suddenly remembered the plot of a story-
When a demon is born, there will be a living sacrifice!
Well?
However, at this moment, Leng Yi's brows suddenly furrowed, and he seemed to smell a hint of déjà vu;
Only then did he realize that there were several tall brick houses in front of him, and those that could afford to build brick houses in this kind of settlement showed that the family had been a monk, and that their cultivation was at least above the third level of quenching;
There's a barbarian I know in this family?
A trace of doubt flashed in Leng Yi's mind, but he quickly left it behind, he knew a lot of barbarians, but he didn't have any friends;
"Forget it, I'm still far away from this;" Leng Yi turned his head and walked out of the tribe, shaking his head helplessly, of course he understood what sacrifice meant, this matter was not something that his little calcined bone level 3 could mix at all;
Although he must participate in the Vitality Water Incident, he understands that his so-called "participation" is actually to fish in troubled waters;
When it comes to competition, he doesn't have that qualifications yet!
A small amount of vitality water, a hundred taels of silver, is not worth so many things;
Not only the Xichuan families, barbarians, fierce beasts, demons, and mortals, but now even the "sacrifice" has jumped out......
What's next?
Leng Yi walked out of the tribe while thinking, and closed the heavy gate before leaving, so as to prevent the wandering beasts from smelling blood and getting in;
Not being nosy doesn't mean that you don't care about your strength, that's all Leng Yi can do;
Leaving the tribe, Leng Yi and Xiao Xi continued to move forward, and since they generally understood what was going on, Leng Yi sped up their march;
He doesn't mess with the demon, presumably the demon won't be stupid to come over and provoke him!
The bitter cold wind blew Leng Yi's gray hair, watching the vast Gobi desert retreating rapidly, Leng Yi's eyes were full of a trace of powerless sadness;
Just ran a hundred and ten miles, and passed dozens of large and small settlements far and near, each of which was the same dead silence, the same sadness, and the same resentment......
What is the unknown danger ahead of this road?
