Duanmu Haoyang did not pass through the main gate of the tribe's residence, but left through another small gate near the mountain forest behind the tribe. Ordinary people are not allowed to enter and exit the tribe through this gate, because it is in a hidden corner, and other tribes do not know that the Duanmu tribe has entrances and exits.

Along the winding path, Duanmu Haoyang cautiously entered the depths of the mountain forest, never forgetting to be vigilant, checking the ground and surroundings to see if there was anything abnormal, and avoiding encounters with people from the Ji and Jiang tribes.

Whenever they encounter a fierce beast or anyone else, they will quietly hide or make a detour from a distance. It wasn't until it left the tribe for about thirty miles that the Hidden Light Leopard let go of its speed, and its figure quickly disappeared from the mountains and forests.

Duanmu Haoyang, who was riding on the back of the Hidden Light Leopard, did not dare to relax for a moment, walking alone in the dense mountain forest, the biggest threat was still the fierce beast and the spirit beast.

On the way, he casually hunted a weak beast, found a remote place, left one of the beast's thighs for himself, and threw all the others to the Hidden Light Leopard, roasted the meat on the fire, filled his stomach and hurried away. There was no danger along the way, and when the sun had not yet set, they rushed to the Zuoqiu tribe.

After identifying themselves with the guards, the guards immediately entered the tribal garrison and reported to the chief. Duanmu Haoyang waited distraughtly outside the tribe, worried about the tribe's situation. The door slowly opened, and out of it came a slim girl with a smile on her ruddy face.

"Duanmu Haoyang, I haven't seen you for two years, can you recognize who I am?" The girl stood two meters away from Duanmu Haoyang, carefully looking at the young man with a cold temperament in front of her.

Duanmu Haoyang looked at the girl who was slightly shorter than himself seriously, the hair on the top of his head and forehead was combed back to his head, the rest of the hair drooped naturally, and the ring ornaments made of crystal clear gems and small animal bones were worn on the top of his head; his curved eyebrows were like willow leaves, his eyes were clear and bright, his long eyelashes trembled slightly, his nose was straight, his lips were as delicate as petals sticking to morning dew, his white and flawless skin showed a faint pink, and he was wearing a light blue trimmed long skirt, compared with the little girl who was wearing coarse cloth clothes two years ago, the gap was too big, not at all like the people who lived in the tribe。

The two looked at each other, Duanmu Haoyang dodged in a panic, feeling as if his face was being roasted by fire, and he was a little shy, it was the first time he had seen such a beautiful girl, more beautiful than the girls he had seen in the town.

The person who came was Zuoqiu Yu'er, the girl who had played together.

"Are you Zuoqiu Yu'er, I didn't expect to see such a big change in two years, and it has become ......" I wanted to praise the beauty in front of me, but Duanmu Haoyang never praised any girl, and I didn't know how to speak for a while!

Duanmu Haoyang's embarrassment was fully seen by Zuoqiu Yu'er, her face was slightly red, seeing Duanmu Haoyang, she also had an indescribable nervousness in her heart, and hurriedly turned around and beckoned Duanmu Haoyang to follow her to see her father Zuoqiu Ling.

She passed by the council hall and happened to know that Duanmu Haoyang was visiting the tribe, and rushed out to greet her brother in front of her, so she wanted to see Duanmu Haoyang first.

Zuoqiu Yu'er led Duanmu Haoyang into the tribe station, Duanmu Haoyang put away his mind, thinking about how to communicate with Zuoqiu Ling in order to make the Zuoqiu tribe lend a hand, resolve the crisis of the tribe's extinction, and seek a glimmer of life for the clansmen.

Along the way, Zuoqiu Yuer kept introducing the situation of the Zuoqiu tribe to Duanmu Haoyang, and introduced some people to him. Duanmu Haoyang found that the living conditions of the Zuoqiu tribe were much better than those of the Duanmu tribe, and there were more people, two hunting teams of fifty people went out every day, and the martial artists who cultivated the seventh and eighth heavens were twice as many as those of the Duanmu tribe, and there were also some clansmen who refined the nine heavens.

Duanmu Yidao said that Zuo Qiu Ling was a cultivator of the two heavens in the god refining period, and he could be regarded as a deterrent warrior in the ordinary small tribes. Finding that the Zuoqiu tribe had so many martial artists in the refining period, Duanmu Haoyang thought that the cultivation techniques and collected classics of the Zuoqiu tribe were relatively more complete than those of the Duanmu tribe, and the level of the exercises would not be lower.

Although the martial artists of the refining stage are comparable to the peak cultivators of the refining period in terms of physique and strength, their divine sense is much higher than that of the martial artists of the refining period, and they can judge the route and direction of the attack in advance when facing the enemy, and their reactions are very agile, and they can grasp the opportunity to fight the enemy. The higher the cultivation level of a martial artist in the God Refining Period, the faster the speed of reaction and the farther the distance of divine sense induction.

After a while, the two of them arrived at the council hall of the Zuoqiu tribe, where Zuoqiu Ling, Zuoqiu Yu'er's two elder brothers, and the people who managed things in the three tribes were sitting. Zuoqiu Yu'er walked to Zuoqiu Ling's side and stood still, waiting for Duanmu Haoyang to explain her intentions with affectionate eyes.

Duanmu Haoyang stepped forward and saluted humbly, behaved generously, neither humble nor arrogant, "Haoyang meets Uncle Zuoqiu, the two elder brothers and the elders. He bowed down and motioned to the people around him, and everyone smiled and stood up to return the salute.

"I haven't seen you for two years, your cultivation has reached the peak of body refining, and you are more concentrated on cultivation than me, a lazy jade. With that, he let Duanmu Haoyang sit on the chair near his left front.

"I'm not lazy!" Zuoqiu Yu'er muttered in a low voice when her face turned red.

After the two sides sat down, Duanmu Haoyang did not hesitate, directly expressed his intentions, told everyone about the current situation of the Duanmu tribe, and expressed the hope that the Zuoqiu tribe could provide necessary help. The tribes living in the nearby mountains and forests are all aware of the strength of the Ji tribe and the Jiang tribe, and no tribe can compete alone, and no small tribe will offend them for no reason.

When the Duanmu tribe was threatened by the Ji tribe and threatened to slaughter the tribe, no one was willing to touch this brow.

Zuo Qiu Ling already knew the news more than a month ago, and if several tribes could be united, Zuo Qiu Ling was very willing to directly help the Duanmu tribe. The law of survival in the mountains and forests is the law of survival of the jungle, the tribes cannot unite together, and the small tribes can only be bullied, but the Duanmu tribe and the Ji tribe have a long-standing grudge, and now they are incompatible, and the ambition of the Ji tribe to occupy the Duanmu tribe station cannot be shaken.

Even if the two tribes of Zuoqiu and Duanmu united together and sent each other to support each other, it would be impossible to defeat the Ji tribe, not to mention the Jiang clan who united with the Ji clan. When it comes to the life and death of the tribe, no matter how much Zuoqiu Ling wants to help the Duanmu tribe, he can't use the fate of the Zuoqiu tribe as a bet.

Now Duanmu Haoyang has proposed to help pick up the clansmen who have escaped from the tribe, although it may displease the Ji tribe, but the possibility of retaliation is much reduced.

Everyone present understood this truth, Zuo Qiu Ling was about to open his mouth to agree to the request of the Duanmu tribe, when Zuo Qiu Yu'er, who was beside him, touched his shoulder and urged his father to agree quickly.

Everyone in the hall could see Zuoqiu Yu'er's movements, and her eldest brother immediately spoke, "Sister, in the past, you were reluctant to participate in tribal deliberations, why are you so active today?"

Zuoqiu Yu'er secretly glanced at Duanmu Haoyang, pretending to be calm, as if nothing happened, "I am familiar with Haoyang, and Uncle Duanmu saved my life, it is normal to care about deliberations!"

"Haoyang, are you two so familiar with each other? Didn't you meet two years ago? Whether it's our tribe or the teenagers of other tribes, you also know a lot, and I've never heard of your name directly. Her second brother continued to laugh.

Duanmu Haoyang felt uncomfortable, his face was hot, but he didn't know what to do, so he could only watch blankly.

Zuoqiu Yu'er's thoughts are known to everyone in the family, and she is no longer shy, "I am willing, what can the two brothers do with me?"

Zuo Qiu Ling laughed and interrupted the children's words, "Okay, let's solve the important matter in front of us first!" The current situation is more severe, starting tomorrow, the tribe will send a hunting team, using hunting as a cover, avoiding other tribes, and waiting for pick-up thirty miles outside the Duanmu tribe. Once you receive the escaped personnel, immediately return to the Zuoqiu tribe, and do a good job of protection and camouflage along the way to reduce the casualties of everyone. ”

"Father, it's not early now, you can't rush at night, it's too dangerous, Haoyang will rest at our house for one night, tomorrow I will return to the Duanmu tribe with him to see the situation, the clansmen will follow us behind, and act according to the marks I left along the way. I will make peace with the people after I take them out of the Duanmu tribe, so that it will be safer and less likely to cause problems. Zuoqiu Yuer said.

"It's not safe for you and Haoyang to return to the tribe, why don't you let your eldest brother go?" Zuo Qiu Ling was worried about his daughter and didn't want her to be in danger.

Her two older brothers tried to stop her, but they were rejected by a determined gaze. They all know that no one can persuade their sister to decide something, not even their parents, it is the result of their family's usual pampering.

"Father believed in me and brought the man out of the tribe at the right time, and I returned immediately. ”

Duanmu Haoyang stared at Zuoqiu Yu'er, and a warm current melted into his blood.

Originally, I was worried that the Zuoqiu tribe was afraid of danger and it would be difficult to lend a hand, and I hoped that Zuoqiu Yu'er would help persuade him at that time, but he didn't expect that Zuoqiu Ling agreed without hesitation. Moreover, Zuoqiu Yu'er actually risked returning to the tribe with him, if the Ji tribe could not escape when attacking, it was very likely to die.

He didn't say anything more, took all his gratitude to himself, stood up and bowed in thanks, and his bent waist stayed in the air for a long time.
