MTLNOVEL Chapter 587 The Tengu tribe is shocked!
Xize Fairyland.
Under the guidance of Gou Ziqing and his sister, Ye Junlin and his companions came to an extremely remote and backward desolate place.
There is not even a blade of grass within a radius of 100,000 miles. The land is dry and cracked. It is a desolate place.
Who would have thought that in such a harsh environment, there was actually an ethnic group living here without telling the outside world!
The Tengu tribe, a once glorious race, has lived in such poverty over the long years.
Anyone who knows the origin will feel a sigh.
There are no decent buildings in the tribal territory, and the tribesmen all live in simple tents.
There are dried fish and animal meat drying around, giving off a faint fragrance.
Just as night fell, piles of bonfires were burning, illuminating this impoverished group of people.
The adults came back from hunting and prepared food.
Some children were chasing each other and playing.
Although life within the tribe is poor and hard, as long as they are not disturbed by monks from outside, they feel very safe and are satisfied with their current quiet and simple life.
After all, over the years, the Tengu tribe has always been forced to migrate and live a life of displacement. In comparison, the current situation is already the best.
"Auntie, please don't go out. Ziqing and Qianyi will definitely come back safely!"
"Don't stop me. I only have these two children left. So many days have passed and I haven't even seen a dog. How can I feel at ease..."
Somewhere near the foot of the mountain, a woman in plain clothes was crying and about to leave with a basket of food. Several tribesmen around her stopped her and kept trying to persuade her.
During this time, some tribesmen occasionally cast glances at him, their eyes full of pity and regret.
They all knew that the woman's two children had been accidentally separated during a tribal migration, and had not returned for so many days, so they were afraid that they were in great danger.
That’s right, this is the mother of Gou Ziqing and his sister, Gou Cuihua.
"My life is so miserable~"
Gou Cuihua, who was stopped and dissuaded, almost collapsed mentally. She threw the flower basket aside, knelt on the ground and cried loudly.
Everyone felt sorry for it, but they were helpless.
These days, the Tengu tribe is trying to survive in the cracks. Every member of the tribe is extremely low-key and cautious when going out, for fear of being captured by human monks and used as food.
You know, the young master of the Tianshui Han family, who is a member of the imperial family, has a special liking for the dog meat of the Tengu tribe and is drooling over it.
Therefore, many major forces are thinking of capturing them and presenting them to the young master of the Han family!
And what are the chances of those two children, with their low cultivation base, returning safely in the human territory fraught with danger?
The probability is obviously extremely slim!
Who knows, the dog might have been skinned, washed, chopped neatly, and made into dog meat hotpot!
Of course, they kept these words to themselves. If they were to speak them out, Gou Cuihua, as a mother, would definitely commit suicide...
"Auntie, you have to be more open-minded. Maybe the children are on their way back. If you happen to go out, you won't be able to see them!"
A tribesman advised with good intentions.
"Yes, these two kids have been smart since they were young, especially Ziqing. He has a lot of clever ideas since he was a kid. Once his brain works, he can come up with eighteen thousand ideas. With his intelligence, he will definitely be able to bring his sister back."
"Yes, yes, that's what I think too!"
……
The tribesmen talked to each other to calm Gou Cuihua down.
Gou Cuihua's crying gradually became less loud, but she was still sobbing softly, and she felt a little better inside.
In fact, she knew that the tribesmen were comforting her. She also knew that even if she went out to look for the child, the hope would be slim and she would risk her own life, but she just couldn't let go of the child.
However, a young man ran over and said anxiously with a hint of fear, "Auntie, your two children are back!"
"what?!"
Everyone was shocked, and shock could be seen in each other's eyes.
No, he really came back?
"I told you, Ziqing has been a smart kid since he was young!" the tribesman said.
Gou Cuihua came back to her senses from the shock and said excitedly: "Okay, I'm glad you're back. God bless you!"
"No, it's not good, not good at all!" said the young man who came back to report the news anxiously.
“???” Everyone was confused. How do you talk like that, kid?
"What do you mean! Do you think I'm easy to mess with?" Gou Cuihua's eyes turned red. She grabbed the young man by the collar and bared her teeth in anger.
The safe return of the two children was the happiest thing for her, but the other party spoke like this, which made her so angry.
"Auntie, something big has happened. Not only has your child come back, but he has also brought a few outsiders back to the tribe! Even the tribe leader has been alarmed!" the young man said anxiously.
"You, what did you say?"
Gou Cuihua was struck by lightning, and there was disbelief in her eyes.
"That kid actually brought an outsider back to the tribe!" Everyone was shocked and their eyes changed when they looked at Gou Cuihua.
Back then, the Tengu tribe was almost exterminated once because some members of the tribe believed the slander of outside monks, let down their guard and brought them back to the tribe, which ended up bringing a devastating disaster to the tribe.
After that incident, the Tengu tribe suffered heavy losses. From then on, it was passed down from generation to generation within the tribe that it was strictly forbidden to bring outside monks back to the tribe, otherwise there would be punishment according to the tribe rules!
Over the years, the tribesmen have strictly abided by it and dared not violate this iron rule for fear of becoming the culprit that brings harm to the tribe.
now.
There were actually members of the tribe who disregarded the iron rule and secretly brought outsiders back, exposing the tribe's location!
The consequence is extremely serious!
"Hurry, take me to see it..." Gou Cuihua became more and more scared the more she thought about it.
at the same time.
Ye Junlin and others came to the Tengu tribe’s territory. Looking at the chaotic scene in front of them with dogs barking everywhere, they fell into silence.
"Master, they don't seem to welcome us?" The Big Mushroom King scratched his head.
"Fellow Daoist Xiaohei, you don't understand this. Only when facing the arrival of distinguished guests will the Tengu tribe bark like crazy to show their enthusiasm for the guests." Lord Canglang smiled, stroking his beard with an understanding expression.
Ye Junlin glanced at him sideways, "You think I've never had a dog, right? Is this how a dog welcomes guests?"
"Uh," Canglang Jun was choked.
"Brother..." Sister Gou Qianyi was very worried, knowing very well that this action had brought panic to the tribe members.
"Don't be afraid, I will explain." Gou Ziqing forced himself to remain calm, took a step forward and shouted towards the tribe:
"Everyone, I have brought you some distinguished guests. They are here to help the Tengu tribe!"
next second.
An old man's angry voice sounded with a feeling of disappointment.
"Kid, you are confused!!!"
I saw a white-haired old man who was leaning on a cane and looked frail. A silver dog-head token hung around his waist. He led his people out with an air of time.
The tribesmen all held weapons in their hands and glared at Ye Junlin and the others with hostility!
