Wei's old and majestic face showed the kindness of an elder, "My son, don't worry, I just returned to the embrace of the ancestral spirit. This is the best destination for all Hunter Wind tribe members."
"Go and call Su here, and find another one who is still alive. Oh, please tear down this curtain. It's so short that it makes people feel uncomfortable."
Oka did as he was told one by one, and Wei also stood up with the help of the witch, hiding his wounds, and transformed back into the majestic hunting wind leader.
Soon everyone gathered around Wei.
Su Tong's eyes were red and he held Wei's hand, "Grandpa..."
But Wei just touched his head, smiled kindly, and said nothing to him.
Wei looked at Ji on the side and said in a voice like rolling thunder: "I declare that Su will succeed me as the new leader of the Hunting Wind Clan!"
The surviving elders who gathered in front of Wei were horrified when they heard what he said.
"How can we appoint a child to be the leader in a time of great crisis?"
"Yes, I recommended Gang to be the leader. He is the number one warrior of the Wind Hunter Clan!"
"Chief, please think twice about your fate!"
The elders objected fiercely, and even the ordinary Hunter Wind tribe members on the periphery began to whisper.
"Quiet!" Gang said sternly, "This is the leader's decision and cannot be questioned!"
The Hunting Wind Guards guarding Wei's side also looked at the commentators with unkind expressions, and the giant swords in their hands shone with cold light.
Then the discussion gradually became quieter.
Gang came to Su's side and whispered a few words in his ear.
Su reluctantly let go of Wei's hand and walked to the high platform set up to ensure that everyone could see him.
Then Su closed his eyes, and a moment later, a golden light lit up on his forehead, as if a third eye opened.
Wang Chen couldn't see clearly from a distance, but he heard the people around him suddenly burst into violent cheers.
"How could it be? Isn't Su only twelve years old?"
"He was born with vertical pupils! They are also golden!"
"The ancestral spirit protects us. It turns out that Su has such a talent. He will definitely lead us to put down this turmoil!"
"Will the legends recited by the reporters become a reality?"
"I support Su becoming the next leader!"
…
In the commotion, Wang Chen heard some fragments of words.
This hunter-wind clansman has a light emitting from his forehead. One of the functions of the light is to allow them to rely on the light to see. This is why Gang can accurately shoot arrows to cliffs hundreds of meters above. The following reasons.
However, this kind of light is blocked innately. The only way is to use Dafeng's heart as medicine, prepare a potion and drink it, and then use the sharp beak to forcefully poke a big hole in the forehead.
After the wound has healed, you can use Guanglan's ability.
The richer the light of Guanglan, the greater the help it can provide, and gold is the most powerful among them.
Except for being mentioned in legends, this color has never been awakened by the Hunter Wind tribe.
The hunting wind tribesmen who can naturally use Guanglan's ability without going through this ritual are called born with vertical pupils.
Su, who was born with erect pupils and a golden light, is the legendary saint of the Hunting Wind clan, and will lead the Hunting Wind clan to prosperity.
Wang Chen secretly thought that they had hidden Su's talent so deeply that they had kept it from everyone for twelve years, probably because they didn't want Su to die young due to ulterior motives.
There was really no other way at the moment, so he pushed Su onto the high platform.
This was probably to stabilize the morale of the military during the lost period of time in Dafenghu.
Wei looked at Su who was like a saint, with a happy smile on his lips, and passed away suddenly.
The witches surrounding him suddenly shouted.
Su jumped down from the high platform, threw herself next to Wei and cried bitterly.
After the Wind Hunters were silent for a moment, someone sang an ethereal tune, like humai, from which they could hear the chirping of insects, the roar of eagles, and the neighing of horses.
After other tribesmen heard it, they also joined in, and finally bid farewell to the leader with an ethereal and sad melody.
…
After Wei's body was sealed in a coffin and transported to the sky burial site, Xuan Wei's last words were recorded:
The current war situation is urgent, and Gang will temporarily lead the tribe. After the situation stabilizes, Su will be appointed as the leader, and Gang will serve as an assistant.
This is something that everyone knows very well. Although Su has the appearance of a saint, he still needs time to grow. It just so happens that he has a brave uncle who can assist him. It is a great blessing.
Wang Chen and the current leadership team of the tribe returned to the tent together.
Originally, he was questioned by the elders about how a human could participate in their high-level meeting, but Gangli allowed him to participate despite all objections.
Wang Chen was a little surprised. This big man didn't seem to be so repulsive to him anymore.
Then they discussed what the tribe should do next.
What Gang meant was to assign an elite soldier to him from among the remaining tribesmen. He would visit the owners of each pasture one by one and ask them to be more honest and not to follow the traitors.
You can also bring Su with you and show your holy appearance in front of them so that they can be convinced and take refuge.
Of course there is nothing wrong with this, force deterrence coupled with metaphysical control.
But the question is, can the people who can come together now still be able to hold on?
Unless all the young adults in the current camp are sent out, no defense force will be left.
But no one can guarantee that the rebels will not counterattack their camp, and then there will only be a bunch of old, weak, women and children left to ravage.
An elder said tremblingly that he did not need to be protected, the future of the tribe was important, and he supported the deployment of all active forces to demonstrate.
As for the threats that women and children may face, this is also a fate they must endure.
Gang remained silent after hearing what he said, and Wang Chen also looked at the elder coldly.
At this moment, Su spoke.
"I am against this plan. If we men can't protect women and children, I really don't know what we are fighting for."
Everyone's eyes suddenly focused on Su's face. The young man who was crying on his grandfather just now seemed to have grown up in an instant.
He looked at Gang and said in a deep voice: "In this surprise attack by the rebels, some earth-piercing beads were used, and some soldiers said they saw traces of the deep-earth dwarves."
"We have reason to believe that the Deep Earth Dwarves are one of the important helpers for the rebels. It is precisely because of their existence that it is difficult for us to recover Da Fenghu."
"So, why don't we visit the Deep Earth Dwarves to resolve the misunderstanding between our two clans and win back their friendship."
When everyone heard this, they looked at each other but did not dare to speak.
Only Gang dared to speak bluntly, "Chief, this is not as easy as you think. The deep earth dwarves may not even see us."
"In the final analysis, only thinking about making friends when the war is tense will show that we have no sincerity and will also expose the fact that we lack confidence."
Su smiled and said, "If I visit them personally with gifts, does that count as sincerity?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone turned pale with panic.
"The leader must not do this!"
"You are the holy sign of our clan's prosperity, how can you put yourself in danger!"
"I hope you will think twice!"
Opposition was heard for a while.
