Chapter 40 The enemy is coming
The mountains and forests to the east of the Mang tribe.
"Xiya, the leader asked me to bring you a stove and food."
A young totem warrior about thirteen or fourteen years old, walked to the front of the secret post with a stove-shaped pottery in a vine basket, lifted up the weeds covered on it, and put the vine basket into the pit.
This young man is called Xian, and he is also a newly awakened totem warrior this year. He carries a bow every day and is a very talented archer in the tribe.
Ya was a secret whistle with another young man named Xi. Xi was a totem warrior who woke up last year. He was more experienced in the mountains and forests and just took the new totem warrior.
Although they are already totem warriors, they have been trapped in the pit for a long time and cannot move around, and they will be very cold, so Chenbei came up with a way to keep them warm with a stove.
Xi said sincerely: "Thank you, the leader, when we go back for us."
I took the vine basket and it was a pottery like an incense burner, with charcoal fire covered with wood ash. This is a stove made by Chenbei and can be used for heating. The charcoal fire inside is covered with wood ash and stewed, which can last for half a day.
There are also some jerky meat in the vine basket, which can be roasted on the stove and eaten after being heated, which can replenish some calories.
Xian covered the weeds again, leaving only a small observation mouth, and said, "Uncle Lie and I will take over you tonight."
He put the jerky meat on the stove and grilled it. He took a bite and swallowed it, saying, "The leader is so nice to us. He not only keeps our skin warm, but also gives the stove and jerky meat so that we can eat hot food."
Xi nodded and said, "Yes, it's much better than the leader of our previous tribe."
"What did he do? I have long forgotten my previous tribe."
Ya's face looked a little ugly. Obviously, the tribe in the past did not leave him many good memories.
Xi picked up a piece of dried meat, took a bite, and said, "Yes, we are now from the Mang tribe, and we should forget the previous tribe."
Xi continued: "We have a good house now, we have meat to eat every day, and we have awakened the power of totem. We had nothing before. When winter comes, we will be frozen and hungry. There is really nothing to miss."
Ya grabbed the bone spear beside her and said, "So, no matter who wants to take away everything we are now, I will fight them until I die in battle!"
Xi took a deep breath, his eyes fiercely said, "That's right, whoever wants to steal our things will fight! Anyway, I'm not willing to go back to my previous life if I beat you to death."
The two stopped talking and chewed the roasted jerky silently. In order to reduce the toilet, they tried to drink as little water as possible, so the jerky had to be chewed for a longer time, so it would not be easy to choke.
Time passed slowly. In the afternoon, the stove was no longer so warm, and there was still no movement in the mountains and forests. Xi and Ya were all ready to wait for someone to pick up the job.
In the evening, Lie brought Xian to pick up the post on time. They brought a new stove and jerky, and they would stay here all night.
"You're finally here."
The stream stretched, pulled open the weeds, and prepared to come out of the pit.
However, at this moment, Lie's ears suddenly moved, pulled the string and quickly drilled into the pit, and re-covered the weeds.
The earth pit is more than enough to accommodate two or three people, but it is more crowded to accommodate four people.
Xi said nervously: "Captain, is there something happening?"
Xi is also a member of the fishing team. He has followed Lie Fishing from the beginning and is also considered an old soldier.
Lie reached out and asked Xi not to speak, then he lay on the ground with a serious expression, listened carefully for a while, and said, "Here you come!"
Everyone understood what these two words mean. They each held their weapons tightly and their whole bodies became nervous.
“Ah~~”
A scream suddenly came from the forest, saying that someone had stepped on a trap.
Lie grabbed the teeth that wanted to rush out and said, "We will stay here, and you and Xi will immediately go back to the tribe to report to the leader, Xi, take him away, hurry!"
Ya actually wanted to stay, but Lie didn't allow him to refuse at all, so he asked Xi to pull him away.
Ya could only follow the stream and quickly run into the tribe to prepare for the enemy.
Lie was still lying in the pit and fiddled with the weeds outside for disguise. While checking the weapons he was carrying, he said to the string next to him: "Are you scared?"
Xian was holding a bow in his hand. He skillfully pulled out a feather arrow and put it on the bow Qian, saying, "Don't be afraid!"
Lie patted his shoulder with satisfaction and said, "Very good, you will hide here in a while and shoot them with arrows. I'll go out to attract their attention."
Xian nodded. His bow and arrow could indeed exert greater strength in the dark. If someone easily discovered the position, he would lose his advantage.
In the mountains and forests, the traps were constantly triggered, and screams came from time to time, but Lie Joxian and the others were still lying in the pit without moving.
The Mang tribe set up a large number of traps in the mountains and forests in advance. Even if the people from the Black Snake tribe are careful, they must pay enough money to break through this forest.
On the other side, Xi ran wildly with Ya and finally returned to the tribe.
Outside the tribe, Chenbei arranged several teams of totem soldiers to patrol every day. As soon as they appeared outside the tribe, they were discovered by the inspected soldiers.
Xi ran and shouted, "Hurry up, blow the bone whistle, the enemy is coming!"
Every warrior patrolling has a bone whistle that can make a sharp whistle. If an emergency occurs, the bone whistle will be blown directly and the entire tribe can hear it.
The situation was urgent, and one of the inspectors immediately took out the bone whistle and started blew wildly.
“Beep~beep~beep~beep~”
The sharp whistle sounded throughout the tribe, and everyone who heard the whistle did the task as soon as possible.
The old, weak, sick and disabled gathered next to the altar. Here is the protection of the totem god, which is the safest place in the entire tribe.
The rest, whether men or women, all took up their weapons and gathered outside the tribe to prepare to join the war.
Chen Bei was having supper. After hearing the whistle, he put the bowl on his back and immediately wrapped the prepared animal skins. He picked up a stone spear. He didn't even have time to wipe his mouth, so he immediately ran outside.
As soon as he ran to the door, he met the elder and Qingzhu who heard the same sound.
"Elder, witch, you all go to the altar, and the old and young people in the tribe depend on you."
The elder said, "Don't worry, leader, you can go to fight with peace of mind, and leave it to us in the rear."
Qingzhu originally wanted to say something, but when she said that, there were only two words left: "Be careful."
Chen Bei nodded. The situation was urgent. He didn't bother to say anything more. He raised his legs and ran away. The soldiers in the tribe were waiting for him to command and command.
Outside the tribe, the warriors of the Mang tribe had already assembled, and everyone brought their weapons with serious expressions.
Chenbei stood in front of everyone and made the final mobilization.
"Mencius, our enemies are here!"
"What should we do if they want to steal our food, occupy our houses, and kill our families?"
Chen Bei's voice became high, and the totem patterns on his body were shouting out, and his whole aura became extremely powerful.
"Kill them!" Yun took the lead and shouted among the soldiers.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
All the soldiers roared in unison, and their murderous aura was soaring. They finally lived a few good days. No matter who wanted to destroy all this, they would fight against them without hesitation.
"Okay, go!"
Chapter completed!
