The moon is dark, the wind is high, and everything is quiet.
…
"Xiong Guo, go back!"
A figure suddenly appeared next to the gate of the Cao Tribe. It was Cao Hu who had tried so hard to persuade Xiong Guo and the others.
Xiong Guo and others, who were secretly preparing to take the opportunity to slip away, were a little embarrassed, but they quickly calmed down. After saying "Huh~", they took the children back to the house. It seemed that it was impossible to escape. .
The Grass Tribe sent people to guard the side, but after all, there was no hatred, so they didn't look too hard. In the second half of the night, they gradually fell asleep. Xiong Guo and the two took this opportunity to sneak away. out.
Fortunately, Cao Hu also expected it and waited at the door in advance. Although Xiong Guo and others made little noise, he was still noticed by him. There was nothing he could do to Xiong Guo and Cao Hu. After all, there was Teng She. That relationship exists, and there is no enmity between the two parties. Naturally, it is difficult to use violence, so the only way is to use this force.
Now Cao Hu only hopes that the leader will come back as soon as possible. Then this will not be something he should worry about. Cao Hu regrets why he did not go out with the hunting team yesterday. Even if it is freezing outside, it is better than this.
Fortunately, after being caught once, Xiong Guo stopped making trouble. It was definitely impossible to break in. We could only hope that Cao Miao could persuade him when he came back.
Although Xiong Guo didn't give them a good look, the Grass Tribe didn't care too much and prepared a breakfast for them. However, this meal was definitely not as good as yesterday's, but it was not a problem to be full.
After eating and drinking enough, most people in the Grass Tribe did not continue to watch the stalemate here, but scattered around the tribe, looking for something to eat.
It was impossible to escape at night, and it was even more impossible during the day. Both sides were waiting for the return of the grass seedlings.
Calculating the time, if nothing unexpected happens, Cao Miao should be back in the next two days. Cao Hu is naturally eager to see it, and goes out to take a look from time to time.
Although they wasted time staying here with the Grass Tribe, fortunately the food was prepared by the Grass Tribe. Since escaping from the tribe last year, this was a rare time for Xiong Guo and the others to eat and drink without worrying about food and drink. The room was also warm. , this kind of warmth, huddled in the cave, they had not enjoyed it for a long time.
"Hey, Huzi...what do you think that is?"
Although he had made several mistakes, Cao Hu still raised his head and took a look. This glance really made him see the person he was waiting for. When he saw the figure walking in the distance, Cao Hu dropped the digger in excitement. When he reached the grass roots halfway, he danced and ran downstream.
Cao Miao, who quickly approached the tribe, also spotted Cao Hu running over. He was wondering what on earth could make him so excited.
The journey originally took more than an hour, but Cao Hu ran to Cao Miao in less than half an hour:
"The leader...the leader...huhu..."
The violent running made Cao Hu unable to speak clearly. This time, Cao Miao became nervous:
"What's wrong? Something happened in the tribe?"
But looking at the people working outside the tribe, they are all their own people. Although they have begun to gather towards the tribe, it seems that there is no accident.
After taking a breath, Caohu said:
"…………"
"What, you said there are still people alive in the Bear Tribe?"
Hearing the news, Cao Miao was also stunned. After all, no one thought that the Xiong Tribe would be like that and that there would still be people who could survive. Moreover, he knew more than Cao Hu and the others. He knew that Lang Chi had led people to chase the Xiong tribe. Killing them, it seems that Lang Chi had selfish motives. After all, he knew the place and brought warriors there. It was impossible for Xiong Guo and the others to escape safely.
"Then are they coming?"
"..."
I was overjoyed to learn that Hou Cao Miao had come to join me. After all, it would be a good thing for the tribe's population to increase. But after thinking about it, I also knew that there was no way to hide this matter. After all, with so many people, the Cao Tribe must be If you can't eat it, it will be bad if it gets caught in the wind and angers Teng She.
Then Cao Hu told Cao Miao the differences between the two sides regarding the enemies of the Bear Tribe. Hearing this, Cao Miao also had a headache. Seeing Cao Miao's headache, Cao Hu breathed a sigh of relief and finally didn't need him. Let’s deal with the bear fruit that makes no sense at all.
Staring at Cao Hu fiercely, Cao Miao finally knew why he was so excited just now.
But no matter what, these dozen people must be dealt with. The best way is to do what Cao Hu said and find a way to send them to Soaring Snake. In this way, they can not only gain a favor, but also give it to the Bear Tribe. A relatively perfect destination for these remaining personnel.
Along the way, Cao Miao also firmed up his mind. If soft is not enough, then hard will be used. As long as people are alive, I believe it will be explained by then. The reason why Cao Hu has concerns is mainly because he has not been in contact with Soaring Snake and the divine envoy. Even so, Cao Miao felt that as long as there was no serious problem, they would not be angry with them.
So he didn't care about the things on the canoe and handed the packages on his body to other tribesmen behind him. Cao Miao and Cao Hu took the lead in walking towards the tribe.
Apparently, the news of Cao Miao's return was also informed by people from the Cao Tribe to Xiong Guo and the other two. Although they were not released, the two of them were already waiting at the door of the main house.
After seeing Cao Miao, Xiong Guo was not polite and went straight to the point and asked Cao Miao to let them leave the Cao tribe.
General Cao Hu had already told him most of the information along the way. Cao Miao also knew that Xiong Guo and the others did not have enough food. If they were sent to Soaring Snake, this part of the food would not be big except for the grass tribe. The problem is just the expense of two adults and a dozen children. I believe Teng She will definitely give them a satisfactory return.
But if Xiong Guo and the others were left to fend for themselves, it would obviously be impossible. Not to mention running around and wasting food, if there was an accident, if word spread, they would inevitably be treated like Teng She.
Since Cao Miao did not agree to her request, Xiong Guo's expression changed again and again. Although they had only been in the Cao Tribe for less than a day, they could see how the people in the Cao Tribe treated them, and although they were unhappy in their hearts. I agree with their views, but also know that there must be some misunderstanding.
If you really want to force them to go to receive merit, they can just tie them up. There is no need to persuade them repeatedly like now, but the two of them do not dare to risk the future of more than a dozen children. Once things turn out to be what they know, The Bear Tribe is really in doom.
Seeing Cao Miao still refused to give up and wanted to continue persuading. After Xiong Guo and the two looked at each other, they took out a wooden stick from their arms and pointed the sharp end at their necks. At the same time, the people behind them The children followed suit and took out wooden sticks to point at themselves.
In order to prevent them from making the matter bigger, Caohu put away their weapons yesterday. After being blocked in the middle of the night, the two of them went to get a dozen wooden sticks secretly.
The two of them could see that they were similar people, and they didn't want them to die here, otherwise there would be no need to treat them well, so even if they had weapons in their hands, they didn't want to point at the people of the Grass Tribe. The most important thing was With just two people and a dozen children, their force was really limited, so the only thing they could offer was their own lives, in order to blackmail the people of the Grass Tribe into letting them go.
Everyone in the Grass Tribe was stunned when they saw the sudden change in the situation. If these dozen people really died in their own tribe, there would be no way to explain it clearly. It would be good if the matter could be concealed. Once it is leaked, it is estimated that the current Xiong The three tribes of , kite and wolf will be the grass tribe in the future.
Although the tribe is all his own at this time, Cao Miao does not want to take this risk. He also wants to take this opportunity to establish a good relationship with Teng She. After all, he has already lagged behind the other two tribes before, especially the Niu tribe. It can be seen that their relationship with Soaring Snake is much better. If the Grass Tribe can also seize this opportunity, not to mention catching up with the Ox Tribe, it will at least gain some advantages.
"Don't, don't, don't..."
Seeing this, the grass seedlings waved their hands hurriedly, and at the same time motioned to the tribesmen to step back to avoid causing any accidents.
"Xiong Guo, where else can you go like this?"
Cao Miao's mind was also running rapidly, trying every means to keep Xiong Guo and the others.
But after seeing that Cao Miao had no intention of letting them leave, Xiong Guo no longer had hope for the Cao Tribe. But what Cao Miao said was indeed a problem. With their current state and the supplies they had, We really can't go far, so we can only place our hope on other tribes.
Before coming, Xiong Guo and the two had made a plan. If the Grass Tribe couldn't do it, they would go to the Wood Tribe not far away. However, the Grass and Wood Tribes had always had a relatively good relationship, and this was the case for both the Grass Tribe and the Wood Tribe. The possibility of the tribe is not very great, but the cow tribe is more worth trying.
The two of them didn't know the relationship between Soaring Snake and the Cow Tribe. The large-scale livestock trade was only put on the table this year. Before that, all the other tribes really knew was the cow at the beginning.
Although in the impression of Xiong Guo and the others, the situation of the Niu tribe is not very good, they do not expect all the children to be accepted now. As long as some of the children survive, it will be good. Anyway, they only follow them. It would be a dead end.
"You let us go to the Cow Tribe!!"
This is also the last chance for both of them.
However, when Cao Miao heard the word Niu Tribe, he felt a headache. He wanted to take all the credit for this great achievement. Who would have thought about getting involved with the Niu Tribe again.
He glared at Caohu with some annoyance, as if blaming him for not taking advantage of the good opportunity yesterday to tie them up. Now looking at the state of Xiong Guo and the others, it would be difficult to use force again.
Since they are going to be sent to Soaring Snake, it is natural that all of them should be sent there. If an accident occurs, there must be something wrong.
Although he was very reluctant to have anything to do with the Niu tribe, Cao Miao gritted his teeth and finally agreed:
"Okay, I'll let you pass!"
