Murong Xue and the old patriarch were so shocked by Xiao Junhao's childlike words that they stood dumbfounded on the spot. They all had the same doubt in their hearts at this time, that is, how could Xiao Junhao know this at such a young age? These?
After a while, the old patriarch and Murong Xue looked at each other. Murong Xue shook her head helplessly, while the old patriarch smiled cheerfully, his old face full of relief.
At this time, Murong Xue seemed to have remembered something and asked the old clan leader, "Clan Leader, our clan has been hidden from the world for a long time. How did you know that the Cultivation Sect was going to choose a disciple?"
Hearing this, the old patriarch smiled and said, "Do you still remember the Dugu tribe?"
"The Dugu tribe? It seems to have been mentioned in the genealogy. Ah! I remembered it. Is it the Dugu tribe that once fought with our tribe against foreign enemies and later became family friends?"
After thinking for a moment, Murong Xue suddenly said.
"Yes, back then, the Dugu tribe fought bloody battles with our Dongfang tribe. From the battlefield to allies, and from allies to best friends for generations, our two tribes have always shared hardships and advanced and retreated together. It can be said that we are one family. Pass"
The old patriarch said solemnly.
After hearing this, Murong Xue nodded silently, but then asked: "Clan Chief, what do you mean, are we always following the Dugu tribe..."
The old patriarch laughed and said: "Yes, in fact, we have always maintained secret contact with the Dugu tribe. This secret is only known to the successive patriarchs of the tribe. I am making an exception when I tell you this, but for Xiao Junhao, This secret will no longer be a secret in the future.”
"Clan leader, what do you mean..." Murong Xue was shocked when she heard this, thinking that the tribe's comfortable life was about to come to an end.
The old clan leader shook his head and signaled Murong Xue not to think too much, and told her to take Xiao Junhao back to prepare. Next, he would contact the people of the Dugu tribe to pick up Xiao Junhao.
"The tribe's last glimmer of hope falls on you..." The old patriarch said to himself after watching Murong Xue and her son leave, and then took out a jade box from a hidden place in the room...
The old patriarch carefully opened the jade box and took out a purple stone engraved with Taoist symbols. The old patriarch put his hand on the purple stone. There was actually a trace of true energy flowing out of the seemingly skinny palm. The purple stone, In an instant, the Taoist mark flashed with brilliance...
After a long time, Murong Xue took Xiao Junhao back to the old patriarch's courtyard, but there was a small baggage in his arms.
Murong Xue, mother and son, and the old patriarch went into the house and chatted and waited. About two hours passed...
"Clan leader, is the Dugu tribe far away from here? How long will it take for them to get here? Will the news about our tribe be leaked?" Murong Xue asked with a worried face.
"Haha! Don't worry, old Dugu Shi, the current leader of the Dugu tribe, said that the outside world is very chaotic now. We have been hiding in the world for many years, and they have long since stopped caring about us. They may even have forgotten us."
The old patriarch said calmly.
"I hope so, otherwise, I really don't want to let Xiao Junhao take risks." Murong Xue was slightly relieved, but still worried.
"Haha! Don't worry too much, everything will be fine," the old patriarch said.
At this moment, bursts of neighing sounds of wild beasts and some chaotic screams came from outside the Dongfang tribe.
"Huh? They seem to be here. Come on, let's go out and take a look." The old patriarch heard the noise outside and said quickly.
The three of them left the house and walked directly outside the tribe.
"Clan Chief, Patriarch, it's not good, there are many people coming outside, all of them are riding giant wolves, and... they also have weapons in their hands."
A middle-aged woman ran and shouted in a panic, with a look of fear on her face.
"Grandpa Patriarch, there are many strangers outside."
"Chief, many people are coming towards our tribe on wild beasts."
"Clan leader..."
A group of tribesmen, seeing the old tribe leader rushing to speak, looked full of fear and uneasiness.
The Dongfang tribe has never seen outsiders since they lived in seclusion in Luoxia Mountain. How could they not be frightened when a group of seemingly unkind people suddenly broke in?
"Don't panic, don't panic. Listen to me. Don't be afraid. These people are guests of our tribe. Don't be afraid." The old patriarch comforted the tribe and calmed down the commotion while walking out.
When the clan leader heard what the old clan leader said, they were all confused. They didn't know why or what was going on. But Murong Xue understood clearly and followed outside with Xiao Junhao.
At this time, nine people came in from outside the tribe. They were all middle-aged with naked upper bodies, broad shoulders and broad backs. They were all riding a huge jungle wolf.
The leader of the nine was a middle-aged man who was even more powerful. He was wearing a tiger skin clothing and had a tall build. Under his thick eyebrows, he scanned the members of the Eastern tribe with a pair of shining eyes.
"Excuse me, who is the old patriarch Dongfang Chengren?"
The middle-aged man at the head asked loudly as he scanned the people of the Eastern tribe with a pair of tiger eyes.
"You must be Dugu Gaojie! Haha! Your father has already told me, you are indeed extraordinary! Haha!" The old patriarch Dongfang Chengren walked out of the crowd, looked at Dugu Gaojie and said with a smile.
"Gao Jie has met the old patriarch." Dugu Gaojie got off his wolf mount, quickly came to the old patriarch, and saluted quickly.
"Haha! Okay! Our two clans are as close as one family, and we have an irreversible relationship. There is no need to be so polite. Come, come to my place to drink tea and chat," the old clan leader said with a smile.
"Then I'll trouble the old patriarch," Dugu Gaojie said cheerfully without restraint.
"Okay, let's all disperse! We are all our own people, Dongfang Qingyun, take these guests from the Dugu tribe to have a rest," the old patriarch ordered an older child.
After the old clan leader left with a few people, some clan members began to whisper...
"Hey! The old patriarch said these are people from the Dugu tribe, did I hear it right?"
"Yes, you heard it right, they are from the Dugu tribe."
"Wow! They look so strong. I heard from my father that our two races have been friendly for generations, and our relationship is not ordinary!"
“It’s more than just friendly, it’s simply too good to be good anymore.”
"After so many years, we finally have a guest coming to our tribe."
…
A group of people behind were talking and marveling!
In the courtyard and house of the old patriarch Dongfang Chengren.
"Nephew Dugu Xian, please see, this is the child I told your father about, Xiao Junhao, who is running for election this time. This is Xiao Junhao's mother Murong Xue, and Xiao Junhao's father Dongfang Fei Ying, seems to be two years younger than you."
The old patriarch introduced it.
"I've met Brother Dugu," Murong Xue also saluted.
"Child, come and meet your Uncle Dugu," Murong Xue said quickly to Xiao Junhao.
"I've met Uncle Dugu." Xiao Junhao understood what he said and saluted with Murong Xue's help.
"Okay, okay, brothers and sisters, you don't have to be like this. We are all a family, so we don't need so many etiquettes," Dugu Gaojie said quickly and politely.
"I learned about Xiao Junhao's situation from my father before I came here. To be honest, I don't dare to say how sure I am, because this time, the children who came to run for the election are very unusual." Dugu Gaojie said said.
"I know this too. After all, the big tribes outside have a lot of resources to train their children from an early age. We are just trying our luck. I hope those from the cultivation sect can see how extraordinary Xiao Junhao is." The old patriarch said.
"Okay! Then we will try our best. I hope Xiao Junhao can shine when he runs for election," Dugu Gaojie said.
"Well! That's all we can do. When will my nephew plan to leave?" the old patriarch asked.
"There are still two days left before the election, and this time, several major cultivation sects are uncharacteristically selecting disciples at the same time. I'm afraid it's not simple. In order to be fully prepared, without further delay, let's set off now!" Dugu Gao Jie said.
"That's fine, it's just that the wise nephew has come all the way and has not been able to fulfill the friendship of the landlord," the old patriarch said.
Dugu Gaojie waved his hand and said that there was a long time to come. He also greeted the old patriarch and Murong Xue politely. In order not to delay his candidacy, Dugu Gaojie immediately took Xiao Junhao on the road. Before leaving, Murong Xue shed tears. Farewell until the group of people is no longer visible.
To the east of Luoxia Mountain is a Qiping Forest with a radius of two hundred miles. Going south through the Qiping Forest is the prosperous area of Donghua Dragon Territory.
"Rumble..."
Nine huge jungle wolves carrying nine figures roared past in the Qiping Forest. The towering trees in the forest were shaken by the trembling leaves, and many small animals were frightened and fled in panic. . .
Little Junhao sat on the back of Dugu Gaojie's giant jungle wolf. His young body was jolted up and down, left and right, but fortunately Dugu Gaojie held him tightly in his arms, letting the giant wolf handle him. Rushing through the forest.
Xiao Junhao felt the wind whistling in his ears, his heart beat a little faster, and he suddenly felt a little excited, so he felt it on a whim...
Although there was no artistic conception this time, Xiao Junhao still sensed some conditions in the outside world.
"Uncle Dugu, have we scared all the little animals here! They are all so scared," Xiao Junhao said timidly.
"Oh? You can actually feel the mental state of these little ones?" Dugu Gaojie was driving the giant wolf at high speed. Suddenly, when Xiao Junhao asked him this, Dugu Gaojie was suddenly surprised!
"Mental state? I just feel that they are very panicked and scared. They seem to be calling for their companions." Xiao Junhao didn't seem to understand the meaning of mental state, but he still said timidly.
"Huh? Really? Little guy, it seems that you are really extraordinary! This time the disciples of the cultivation world are participating in the election, I hope you can perform well! Try to be selected," Dugu Gaojie said in surprise again.
The group passed through Qiping Forest, then ran southward for nearly two hours, and finally arrived at Hualong City, the prosperous area of Donghua Dragon Territory, before sunset!
Hualong City is one of the prosperous areas in the East Hualong Region. The buildings in the city are magnificent, the streets are connected in all directions, and various business stores are located in every street and alley. The pedestrians on the street are even more bustling and lively...
There are three major tribes in Hualong City, among which the Dugu tribe is the most powerful and has jurisdiction over two-thirds of Hualong City. The Ximen tribe and the Daxi tribe each have jurisdiction over Hualong City.
Dugu Gaojie and his group rode giant jungle wolves on the wide streets of Hualong City, causing pedestrians on the road to look sideways and avoid them. These nine giant jungle wolves alone made people scream...
