If you want to enter the mountains where the Chu family is located, you must first pass through the Qi River.

The water of the Qi River crosses the mountains and flows into Nanyang City, which is a major road for water transportation in Nanyang City.

The carriage loaded with goods passed unhurriedly over the wide and towering arch bridge, but before it entered the forest, several teenagers appeared at the head of the bridge.

It was Chu Xingxian and a few others, and even Liu Meixue was there.

This made Chu Xiaowen a little surprised.

Several people stood at the head of the bridge as if waiting for something, but after a while, someone jumped up from under the bridge, but it was Su Changge who jumped up.

The carriage slowly approached a few people, and Chu Li also saw Chu Xiaowen, and immediately beckoned: "Xiaowen, you are here too, come and see what we have found." ”

When Chu Xiaowen heard this, he turned his head to look at the back, and when Zhang Lao saw that it was the young family master's order, he immediately called someone to take Chu Xiaowen's place.

Chu Xingxian and the others saw that Chu Xiaowen's face was a little uncomfortable, but Liu Meixue, who was originally uncomfortable, became happy.

"What did you find, why are you piled up here?" After Chu Xiaowen came over, he didn't look at the faces of Chu Xingxian and the others, and after nodding to Liu Meixue, he asked Chu Li.

Chu Li took something from Su Chang Singer, handed it to Chu Xiaowen and said, "Look at what this is?"

In Chu Li's hand was a black feather, but this feather was wet, much larger than the feathers on ordinary birds, and there was a natural rune of white stone at the end of the tail.

This feather was nothing special except for the runes on it, and Chu Xiaowen asked puzzledly, "What is this?" Could it be the feathers of the demon beasts?"

If it was really the feathers of the demon beast that appeared here, the Chu family would have to intervene in this matter, and if the demon beast was allowed to leave the mountains and forests, it would cause incalculable damage to the surrounding people.

Chu Li shook his head and said, "This is the feather of the people of the Republic of Yu. ”

Chu Xiaowen was taken aback and said, "The people of the Republic of Yu?"

"That's right. Chu Li nodded: "The Yu nation is an ancient alien race, but in the era of gods and demons, it was destroyed by Wuzun and fled to the wild land in the south, but there are many people in every dynasty and generation who like to capture this kind of alien race with wings as an ornamental object, so the Yu nation has always been hiding in the poor mountains and bad waters and dare not go out." ”

Chu Xiaowen bowed his head, not only the feather nation, but also many strange-looking ancient relics in this world are now slaves and playthings that some big families like very much, and the continuous hunting and killing has made more and more aliens exterminate, or hide in a place where the illusion is even worse to seek survival space.

However, the Chu family was one of the few families that opposed slavery, and in Yangzhou, all slave trades that were originally legal were banned.

After a huge turmoil caused by Wu Yuetu a few years ago, the imperial court shrank, and the damaged vitality has not been able to recover, taking advantage of this opportunity, a few alien clans have sought protection from the Chu family, and the imperial court is still afraid of the man whose whereabouts are unknown, like a demon, where is there still the strength to block the Chu family's big giant, so a few alien clans have the opportunity to leave the kind of dead place that is not suitable for survival at all, but they do not dare to go out of the mountains and forests, and they secretly recuperate in the deep mountains and wild forests behind Yangzhou.

This was just a few years ago, those envoys of foreign races who came to seek refuge had also entered Chujiazhuang, Chu Xiaowen and these people had no chance to see them, but Chu Li had received these aliens with his father, and at this time he recognized this feather as the feather on the people of the Republic of China.

"These runes are the best way to identify the identity of the people of the Yu Republic of China. Chu Li said.

Chu Xiaowen looked up and saw that the carriages had already driven into the mountain, and said, "Maybe the Yu Republic has sent an envoy over again." ”

The others also nodded in agreement, and they were also a little excited, the families with a little bit of wealth outside kept aliens in captivity as playthings, but they, the children of the Chu family, had never seen aliens, and maybe they would have a chance to see them this time.

"I heard that the people of the Yu Republic are born with wings and can fly in the sky, do you think he can take us to the sky for a walk. Chu Jiwu didn't care about being uncomfortable in front of Chu Xiaowen, and couldn't help but say.

The others also nodded excitedly, fantasizing about the feeling of flying into the sky, Liu Meixue and Bai Xi were especially the same, the children of the Chu family would often hear the descriptions of aliens, but the three of them even had the existence of aliens in Chujiazhuang, and they only learned a thing or two in some books when they could enter the library.

However, Chu Li shook his head and said: "If a foreigner wants to send an envoy over, he should inform the Chu family in advance, and if he knows that I like this kind of thing, he will tell me before, but this time he didn't receive any news at all, and it is likely that no envoy came." ”

Chu Xingxian frowned, and said: "The people of the Yu Republic don't dare to leave the deep mountains easily, but there are only two possibilities for the people who will appear here, either the envoy, or..."

"Slave!" the others exclaimed in surprise when they heard what they had guessed as well.

Chu Li nodded and said: "I heard that in the past few years, there have been slaves from the people of the Yu Republic outside, in the past, when they were hidden, they would only be captured for more than ten years, but now there are more such slaves, and it is very likely that some traffickers will sneak over to Yangzhou and do this human trafficking." ”

Chu Xingxian nodded and said, "Then this feather should be left by the people of the Yu Republic who were captured this time, and the traffickers should be flowing on this river." ”

Chu Xiaowen had been listening quietly, and only then did he glance at a few people and say, "Since this is the case, you should notify the stewards immediately." ”

Chu Li shook his head and said, "There is no need to inform the steward, since we found out, we will solve it ourselves." ”

Chu Xiaowen also showed an excited look when he heard this, they had been looking forward to this kind of thing for a long time, and now they were obviously thinking of solving this matter by themselves.

Seeing this, Chu Xiaowen couldn't help frowning.

Although there are many masters of the Heavenly and Human Realm in the Chu family, this is a very rare existence outside, and whenever a person with the Heavenly and Human Realm appears in Nanyang City, the Chu family will know about it as soon as possible, so it is impossible for this kind of character to be among the traffickers, but even so, the children of the Chu family who have only studied with their peers are still a little afraid, if Chu Xiaowen can follow, even Chu Xingxian's confidence will be greatly increased.

Therefore, everyone looked at him, including Liu Meixue, after all, this kind of role of a chivalrous man is one of the things that young people yearn for the most.

Chu Li looked at Chu Xiaowen and said sincerely: "Drawing a sword to help is the way of our Chu family, not to mention that there are still foreign races that ask for us, if we wait to inform the steward, I'm afraid everyone will be transported away." ”

After all, Chu Xiaowen was still young, although he felt that it was inappropriate, but he didn't take care of things, and his impulse to save the slaves quickly prevailed over reason, and with the strength of several Chu family disciples, there was really no need to be afraid of ordinary people.

However, Chu Xiaowen still said with some hesitation: "Okay, but we don't have weapons." ”

Su Changge immediately said: "There is a wooden sword in the private school in the city, and it is not as strict as the mountain villa, as long as it is returned before tomorrow morning, no one will find out." ”

The last bit of hesitation also disappeared, Chu Xiaowen agreed, and asked Su Changge and Bai Xi to go to the private school to get a wooden sword, and they searched along the river, hoping that those traffickers had not gone far.
