Where to escape?
Jiang Xuan stood in front of the Vine Tribe, looking at the expectant eyes of more than a hundred people, and was suddenly caught in a difficult decision.
The mosquito tribe comes from the south, so the south can be given up first.
If you escape to the north, you are likely to encounter the more terrifying Crow Tribe, which is not a good choice.
Behind is a rocky mountain and in front is a river.
river?
Jiang Xuan's eyes suddenly lit up, and he finally knew where the intuitive way out was!
Some time ago, in order to catch fish, Jiang Xuan made a large number of bamboo rafts and asked the warriors of the Teng tribe to practice driving the bamboo rafts one by one.
Unexpectedly, before the fishing operation officially started, the Vine tribe encountered a crisis.
If you cross the river on a bamboo raft, with the width of Feiyu River being more than 20 meters, the warriors of the Mosquito tribe will definitely not be able to catch up!
Jiang Xuan immediately shouted: "Everyone, take a bamboo raft to the other side of the river!"
More than a hundred people were stunned at first, and then some smarter people immediately figured out that they could avoid pursuit by crossing the river, so they ran towards the river one after another.
At this time, no one could care about the threat in the river.
The bamboo rafts made by the rattan tribe are relatively large. In theory, even if there are big fish or water animals in the water, as long as people do not enter the water, they are relatively safe.
Because bamboo rafts are not food for big fish and water animals, they will not attack bamboo rafts easily unless they encounter special circumstances.
Chi Shao, Uncaria and others gathered around Jiang Xuan. At this time, they subconsciously gathered together so that they could form a stronger fighting force.
Uncaria ran and said worriedly: "What if the bird-billed mosquito chases me across the river?"
Jiang Xuan's eyes were full of murderous intent, and he gritted his teeth and said: "If you can't fight the people of the Mosquito Tribe, how can you still fight the mosquitoes? If you dare to chase them across the river, turn around and kill them!"
The others also held their breath in their hearts. They nodded after hearing the words, and then ran to the river with their heads down.
The distance from the bamboo house to the river was not too far. Soon, the people from the Teng tribe came to the river and pushed five bamboo rafts into the water.
The bamboo rafts made by the rattan tribe are very large, and each boat can carry six people. As long as they are transported back and forth a few times, they can send all the people there.
"Quickly, send the witch over first!"
Jiang Xuan shouted, and then regardless of whether Chi Shao wanted to or not, he pushed her directly onto the bamboo raft, and Nan Xing and others followed her.
"Walk!"
Jiang Xuan pushed the bamboo raft out with force, and then continued to direct others to get on the bamboo raft to cross the river.
As the leader, others can cross the river first, but he cannot, because if he leaves too, the remaining people will panic and cause trouble.
"Xuan, hurry up and cross the river!"
In fact, Chi Shao wanted to stay, but she knew that she couldn't afford to delay at this time, and hesitation would only be a waste of time.
"Do not worry!"
Jiang Xuan waved to Chi Shao and showed a smile.
"Crash..."
Five bamboo rafts rushed towards the middle of the river one after another. This movement attracted the attention of the fish in the river. Fish of all sizes were swimming around the bamboo rafts, not afraid of people.
There were huge black shadows swimming in the water, which made the people on the bamboo rafts frightened for a while, fearing that these black shadows would suddenly jump up, overturn the bamboo rafts, and eat them.
Fortunately, this scene did not happen. The black shadows just swam back and forth, but did not actively attack the bamboo raft.
Soon, the first group of thirty people crossed over smoothly, and then a warrior who was best at controlling the bamboo raft pushed the bamboo raft back.
The crossing of the river went unexpectedly smoothly. The soldiers holding the bamboo rafts became more and more skilled, and the bamboo rafts moved faster and faster on the water.
Not long after, only the last group of about twenty people were left in the Vine Tribe.
Jiang Xuan's anxious heart was finally relieved. As long as the last group of people crossed the Feiyu River, everyone would be safe for the time being.
However, at this moment, a buzzing sound came from far away, and this sound made people instinctively feel uncomfortable.
"No, it's a bird-billed mosquito. People from the mosquito tribe are here!"
Jiang Xuan's expression changed and he urged the soldier who was pushing back the bamboo raft: "Faster, faster!"
The soldiers on the five bamboo rafts also knew the seriousness of the situation, and their bamboo poles moved faster to hold the water, and they rowed the bamboo rafts this way desperately.
"Buzz buzz..."
At this time, a large group of bird-billed mosquitoes from the Mosquito Tribe had flown over the bamboo house of the Teng Tribe. More than eighty Mosquito Tribe warriors followed closely behind, roaring into the bamboo house with various weapons.
Before Hua Mosquito came, he listened to other leaders' introduction to the situation of the Vine Tribe and learned that they had a giant eagle and a giant dragonfly, which were very scary.
Because of this, after approaching the Vine Tribe, they spread out carefully, advancing bit by bit, and dismantled a large number of traps set by the Vine Tribe.
However, when they arrived at the territory of the Teng tribe, they only saw a dozen bamboo houses and not even the soldiers responsible for patrolling the tribe.
Hua Yi realized that he had been misled, and became angry and immediately led people into the bamboo house, intending to kill all the people of the Teng tribe.
However, after entering the bamboo house, the flames in the fire pit were still burning, but all the food, tools, weapons and other things of the Teng tribe were gone.
"Leader, there is no one."
Soon, the mosquito tribe warriors gathered together again. Their faces were very ugly because all the bamboo houses were empty.
"Dong, dong, dong..."
At this moment, Hua Mosquito vaguely heard a crashing sound deep in the bamboo forest, so he led another person and rushed over.
However, what he saw was still an empty bamboo house and a hydraulic medicine-pounding device.
"ah!"
"boom!"
The flower mosquito roared, and then kicked down the medicine-pounding device in the water. The water in the bamboo tube flowed on the ground.
"Buzz buzz..."
At this moment, a bird-billed mosquito flew down from the bamboo forest, circled around the flower mosquito, and then flew east.
"They're over there, chase them!"
Feeling that he had been tricked, Hua Mosquito held the bone knife and led others to chase him.
Those bird-billed mosquitoes are really powerful. They can accurately distinguish the remaining human breath in the air, and then chase after this breath.
When Hua Yi and the others chased them all the way to the river, the last group of people from the Teng tribe were almost on the other side of the river.
As Hua Mosquito ran, she watched helplessly as Jiang Xuan and others crossed the river on a bamboo raft.
By the time he ran to the water's edge, Jiang Xuan had already stepped ashore and pulled the bamboo raft aboard.
"Ah! I'm so angry!"
Hua Mosquito was about to explode.
He already understood that the Vine Tribe was not strong, it could even be said to be very weak, otherwise there would be no need to run away.
Moreover, they did not see any of the giant eagles or giant dragonflies mentioned by the mosquito tribe warriors before, and they did not know whether they were deceived or something else happened.
If he had known that the Vine Tribe was so weak, he would not have cautiously approached the Vine Tribe little by little, but would have directly led people to rush over. The people of the Vine Tribe would never be able to escape!
However, now the people of the Teng tribe have used a tool made of bamboo to cross the river, but they cannot catch up. The flower mosquito is so depressed that it almost vomits blood.
But he really couldn't bear to let the people of the Vine Tribe go like this.
"Beep……"
Hua Mosquito took out a bone whistle and blew it crazily.
This seemed to be a signal. A large group of bird-billed mosquitoes flying above the heads of the Mosquito Tribe warriors immediately flew to the other side of the river in a swarm after hearing the whistle.
These bird-billed mosquitoes are numerous and fierce, and can fly across the river. Once they catch up with the people of the Vine Tribe, they will also cause a lot of trouble to them.
However, just as the bird-billed mosquito flew to the surface of the river, suddenly, many strange large creatures swam quickly in the river, and suddenly jumped out of the water like arrows.
"Crash..."
The first giant creature rushed out of the water, carrying a large splash of water with it. There were small wings on its back to help them fly a certain distance, then opened its strange big mouth, bit a bird-billed mosquito, and fell into the water.
It's like a signal.
Soon, the river almost boiled, and countless strange giant creatures rushed out of the water, and then madly preyed on the bird-billed mosquitoes.
Bird-billed mosquitoes are not real birds. They don't fly very high, even when crossing rivers.
Because of this, this large group of bird-billed mosquitoes became the prey of that strange giant creature.
"what?"
The Flower Mosquito was confused again. The people from the Vine Tribe passed by smoothly. Why did so many terrifying giant creatures suddenly appear when the Bird-billed Mosquito flew over?
When the mosquito tribe warriors saw the ferocious giant creatures on the river, they subconsciously took two steps back, fearing that these giant creatures would come ashore to attack them.
Across the river, the people of the Vine tribe were also confused because they didn't know what these giant creatures were.
Jiang Xuan observed it carefully and found that this creature was dark green in color with black stripes on its body.
They have a pair of very short wings on their backs, a pair of huge eyes on their heads, terrifying fangs on their mouths, and six legs. Their abdomens are ring-shaped and have three needle-shaped tails. very long.
This giant creature does not look like a fish or other bugs at all. It is also very huge, each one is more than one meter long.
When preying on bird-billed mosquitoes, they move quickly and ferociously. A large group of bird-billed mosquitoes are quickly washed away by them. Many bird-billed mosquitoes are dragged into the water and become their food.
Jiang Xuan looked at it for a while and felt that it looked familiar. He said in surprise: "Is this... is it a water hyacinth?"
Water dragonfly (chài), which is the larval form of dragonfly, lives in water, is carnivorous, and is very ferocious.
Common waterhoppers are very small and have no wings on their backs. They usually prey on various larvae in the water and even some small fish.
At this moment, these water flies in the river are not only huge in size, but also have wings on their backs. After jumping out of the water, they can fly a short distance like flying fish with the help of their wings.
If they didn't look a bit like giant dragonflies, Jiang Xuan wouldn't even recognize them.
Jiang Xuan glanced in the direction of the stone mountain. The giant dragonfly had died last winter. Could it be that these giant water flies were its descendants or those of its kind?
For some reason, Jiang Xuan suddenly became happy.
I don’t know if it’s because the bird-billed mosquitoes can no longer chase them, or because they see the continuation of the giant dragonfly’s life.
"Beep……"
On the other side, when the flower mosquitoes saw the heavy losses of the bird-billed mosquitoes, they blew the bone whistle again to call the bird-billed mosquitoes back to avoid being eaten up.
When the surviving bird-billed mosquitoes heard the whistle, they immediately turned their heads and flew back crazily. They were all frightened.
When the bird-billed mosquito flew back to the mosquito tribe warriors, those giant water flies on the river lost their target and gradually sank to the bottom again, waiting for the next prey.
As for the flower mosquitoes, not only did they not catch up with the Vine Tribe, but they also lost so many bird-billed mosquitoes that they were so depressed that they almost vomited blood.
