Chapter 3: Half of the Book

Ye didn't watch her turn around, her hair stood on end in fright, she trembled, and hurriedly closed her eyes and lowered her head.

"I'm not a ghost, I scared you!" the woman turned her head to look at Ye Bushu.

"You're not a human and you're not a ghost...... And what ...... are you?" asked Ye Bushu, shuddering.

"I'm an immortal!" the woman walked slowly towards him.

"Immortal?" Hearing this, he slowly narrowed his eyes and looked at the woman who was walking towards him step by step by moonlight.

She was tall and slender, dressed in white like snow. The long hair is slightly fluttering, and the clavicle socket is surrounded by butterflies. The eyes are like autumn water, and the eyebrows are like the moonrise of the new moon. Delicate nose, shell tooth Su Ying, mouth like a little red. Fair-skinned and delicate, the jade body is dark and green calyx.

"What do you think I'm scaring you?" the woman stepped forward and reached out to hold her chin that had not been retracted.

"No, no, no......" I didn't put my hands away at night, and I was supported by my chin, and I naturally couldn't speak clearly.

"Am I ugly?" the woman's voice was a little cold.

Ye Bushu hurriedly shook his head, and pointed to the woman's slender hand holding his chin, and the woman realized that the reason why he couldn't speak was that he held someone's chin, and pushed him off the horse's back and to the ground with a slight force.

"It's all to blame for my eyes, I don't know Mount Tai with eyes, and I hope the fairy will forgive me......" Ye Bushu got up from the ground and quickly bowed and apologized.

Seeing him like this, a smug smile leaked from the corner of the woman's mouth.

"Qingke, eldest sister, she already knows that she blames you, and she asked me to find you back. A crisp woman's voice came from the north.

Turning her head to look north, a graceful girl figure in the moonlight was walking towards this side.

"Even if you know each other, my sister is here, so I don't care about you. After saying that, the woman in white went to the north.

It was difficult to react for a while, and he watched in a daze as the figures of the two women drifted towards the mountains to the north until they disappeared.

"It's really strange!" Ye Bushu sighed secretly, stepped on the Lie Qi, and ran towards the Dragon Clan's tribe.

After an hour, arrive at the entrance of the tribe. From a distance, I saw that the lights in the tribe were bright, and the gongs and horns were noisy.

Seeing that the night was not taken away, a few people came out to open the entrance fence for him.

"Brother, what's going on here?" asked Ye Bushu to a man beside him.

"The great wizard did something for the more than 300 clansmen who died in the battle today, and most of the leaders are also there. The man took the reins of the horse from Ye's hand and spoke.

Ye Bushu nodded, and followed the man quickly towards the center of the tribe.

In addition to the council hall where the majority of the capital residences, there is also a vast open space in the center of the tribe, which is used as a venue for festivals and sacrifices.

A fire was lit in the middle of the field, surrounded by women and children with sad expressions, who were supposed to be the families of the soldiers who had died in battle. An elderly woman in a gray robe was dancing around the fire with words in her mouth. She was supposed to be the sorcerer of the tribe. Directly north of the fire, there is a temporary offering table, which is placed with all kinds of sacrificial items, mostly meat. Standing next to the offering platform stood Liu Chong and the elders of the tribe. At this moment, the sacrifice is nearing the end, and it is inconvenient to come forward to disturb it at night.

I didn't eat a bite for a day and a night, and I watched the sacrifices swallow the saliva all night.

A gong sounded, and the sacrifice was over.

"Ladies and gentlemen, if the tribe is to survive, it must fight. There are no immortals in battle, and we must always remember the warriors who died in battle!" Liu Chongmian turned his back to the north and made a final memorial speech to the people.

"Remember, remember ......!" the clansmen shouted in unison.

After three sounds, Liu Chong gestured down, and everyone immediately quieted down.

"Now let's have one last dinner with those dead warriors!" Liu Chong said and waved his hand to signal everyone to come forward and share the offerings on the table.

Although the offering platform is large, the number of sacrifices is limited after all, and each family can only get one.

Although I was hungry and unbearable at night, I wanted to go forward and get a copy, so I thought about it and did it.

"Daduling, I'm back. Seeing that Liu Chong was busy, he stepped forward and said.

"Can things be done?" Liu Chong asked when he saw him coming.

"It's all right. Ye Bushu nodded and said.

"Let's go, come to dinner with me. With that, Liu Chong led Ye Bushu towards the council hall.

Due to the sacrifice, the tribal dinner does not begin until the end of the sacrifice.

On weekdays, the game and food are distributed equally to everyone, and they make their own fires. When there is a major festival or sacrifice, it is done by the tribe in a unified manner, so that the upper and lower sides are of the same mind.

The dinner was very rich, and Liu Chong took Ye Bu to eat with all the elders. I didn't close my eyes and looked around at night, but I couldn't see Liu Qin'er, presumably her injuries were not as good as Liu Zhong said. The night is unbearable, and the hunger is unbearable, and he can't care about what image he devours, and everyone laughs. After dinner, Liu Chong arranged a place for him to live and went to bed early.

I woke up at night from a nightmare in which my father committed suicide in order to escape. Ye Bu clenched his fists, shook his head helplessly and sighed, not knowing when he would be able to avenge them.

The next morning, the gong sounded outside, and I didn't know what was going on, so I hurriedly got up and walked out.

It turned out to be an elder's order to summon the hunters of the clan to hunt in the mountains. The sturdy hunters gathered in the open space next to the council hall for the elder to choose.

"The meat in the tribe is almost empty, and it may take a long time to enter the mountain this time, and anyone can stay if they have something. The elder said to the people.

Hunting is the dream of every young man in the tribe, not only can you venture into the mountains, but if you are lucky, you may even get some high-level animal nedan. That kind of inner pill can not only heal the sick and heal, but also improve the cultivation of martial arts cultivators. But not everyone can be a hunter. It requires great archery skills and sophisticated teamwork.

Although he doesn't know how to practice at night, he can pay for his own archery. I had nothing to do in other people's tribes, and I felt that I couldn't go, so I had the idea of signing up for hunting.

After much selection, the elder finally selected fifty or sixty hunters, most of whom were middle-aged men and only five or six young people.

"May I ask the elder, can you take me there too?" Seeing that the people had already packed up, he came forward to ask.

"You're a valued guest of the Dadu Leader, so you still have to ask the Dadu Leader about this matter!" the elder replied.

"Elder Feng, if the little brother is willing to go, let him go and relax his mood. At this moment, Liu Chong walked out of the meeting hall.

"That's fine. The elder named Liu Feng said to Liu Chongshi.

"Then go back and prepare quickly, bring more water and dry food, and after breakfast, we will go into the mountain immediately. Liu Feng waved to everyone and said.

And they all agreed, and went their own way.

"I don't know how Miss Qin'er's recovery from her injuries is?" After everyone left, Ye Buhui asked Liu Chong.

"If you want to fully recover, you have to take at least half a year, thanks to Elder Zhong, otherwise you will ...... Alas!" Liu Chong covered his face and sighed.

"Everything started because of me, and before I went into the mountain, I wanted to visit Miss Qin'er. Ye Bu said without words.

"Okay, I'll take you there when I'm done with breakfast. Liu Chong nodded in agreement.

Liu Qin'er has a cheerful and hot personality, if she wasn't seriously injured, she wouldn't have been able to stay alone in the house. Only then did he lie on the bed for less than a moment, but he was already in prison, upset and angry.

When Liu Chong came in with Ye Bu, she was complaining to the women of the same age in the clan around her.

"Why, how long have you been lying alone and you can't stay still?" Liu Chong asked with a smile when he saw this.

"Big brother, why did you bring him here?" Liu Qin'er said after glancing at Ye Bushu, who was following Liu Chong.

"I'm going to go hunting in the mountains with Elder Feng, and I'm here to visit you, I wonder what happened to the girl's injuries?"

"I can't die anyway, and if I hadn't been hurt, I'd have gone into the mountains with you. It's so boring to lie alone!" Liu Qin'er's face was full of helplessness.

"Don't worry, if I can get a good baby, I will definitely give it to the girl. Ye Bu Cheng comforted sincerely.

"You don't have any skills, and you still want to hit good things, just don't let the prey eat you. Liu Qin'er heard that Ye Bu said that, and her heart was suddenly happy.

The gong sounded again outside, and it was time to enter the mountain. After bidding farewell to Liu Chong and the others, he followed the team and began to march towards the northern mountains.

From the outside, the mountain is just one, but in fact, there are still mountains behind the mountain, and there are seventy-six mountains in total, and there are only some small animals such as hares, roe deer, etc. on the outer edges. Smaller tribes are generally active in these areas due to lack of manpower. In order to get some valuable animals, a large tribe like the Imperial Dragon Clan usually goes deep into the mountains, where there are many animals and the quality is good.

By the time we reached the third col, it was two days later at night. Mosquito bites, coupled with the fact that some people's skin is scratched by plants and soaked in sweat, they complain one by one.

Liu Feng led everyone to find a large cave, and after inspecting it, he motioned for everyone to eat some dry food and start resting.

At the fourth watch, Ye Bushu was woken up by a sound of Xixi's instigation, and when he looked closely, a raccoon rat was stealing dry food next to a sleeping Yulong clansman. Tanuki and squirrels look about the same, but they are larger, the same size as a lynx. Ye Bushu was very curious, he had never seen this animal outside, so he wanted to catch it and find out. He quietly took his bow and arrows, saw them accurately, and shot them at the arrow.

The arrow missed the night, and failed to hit the heart of the raccoon, but only hit one of its thighs, and the raccoon was in pain, screaming and running out quickly.

"It's just a raccoon, let it go. The scream woke Liu Feng up.

"I'll go back as soon as I go. The night did not stop and said that the man had run towards the entrance of the cave.

Outside the cave, the raccoon rat had long since disappeared. Fortunately, he had been hit by an arrow earlier, leaving a stain of blood on the ground. By the light of the moon, Ye Bu followed the direction of the blood stain to another cave not far away.

He lit his torch and stepped inside. This cave is not very deep, but it is only two or three feet away. Ye Bushu didn't take a few steps to see the injured raccoon, it was very fat, and when it saw Ye Bu receiving it, it squeaked in horror.

Ye Buhui leaned the torch against the stone wall in the cave, and once again drew his bow and aimed his arrow at the raccoon. The civet rat screamed even more violently, and even put its two forelimbs together and shook it into the night.

I didn't want to kill it at night, and I thought it was funny to see this, but I didn't put the arrow away, so I just pointed it at it. The raccoon screamed, and his eyes sparkled as if he were about to weep. Then he lay on his back with a pop, and looked pitifully at the night.

Taking advantage of the light of the torch at night, I found that its lower body was swollen and its abdomen was slightly bulging, so it turned out that it was pregnant with cubs.

"Even though you are a brute, you also know how to protect your children to the death. Get up, I won't kill you again. "I didn't put away my bow and arrows at night, and I prepared to leave.

Seeing this, the tanuki hurried into the cave, and just as the night was in doubt, it quickly turned to the left and disappeared.

"Is this a hole in a hole?" Ye Bu put away the doubts in his heart, and slowly walked over there.

As soon as he took a few steps, the tanuki jumped out, holding a piece of yellow on its forelimbs.

The raccoon put the thing on the ground in front of Ye Bu Hui, and sat on the side with two big front teeth out, which should be to thank Ye Bu for his grace of not killing.

This is a scroll made of yellow silk, and the workmanship looks very delicate, and you can feel the delicacy and smoothness that you have never felt before when you touch it with your hand.

When I opened the scroll, the first thing that caught my eye was a few large cinnabar characters: "Xianwu Treasure Book"......
