Tied to drink water

Hu Xiao patrolled every place in the tribe as usual, especially the sheepfold, which he looked at particularly carefully.

The priest said that the sheep that looked like a cloud would taste better.

Hu Xiao was particularly interested in it and was just waiting to taste the little fat sheep.

The children who used to be in the Water Tribe now herd sheep and cattle and raise chickens and pigs every day.

I also have to follow the collection team to the river to cut grass for the pigs. There are a lot of things to do every day.

The little ones eat their fill every day, so they have more energy to work, and they have become much stronger and more muscular.

Yucao is the king of the children in the water tribe. Every day he leads a group of children to run around on the grassland to herd cattle and sheep.

After drinking the broth, Yucao led the children to the sheepfold, where they met Huxiao who had not left yet.

Yucao grinned, revealing two rows of bright white teeth, "Captain Huxiao, you're here to see the little fat sheep again."

Hu Xiao was not embarrassed. He nodded directly. Seeing Yu Cao opening the fence to let the sheep out, he warned: "Don't go to the river. It's quite dangerous. Come back quickly when they have almost finished eating. Do you hear me?"

Yucao smiled and said, "I know! Captain Tudong also told us."

At this point, Yucao's smile faded. He looked at the pigpen not far away and sighed, "Now we can't go to cut grass for the pigs. The grass we saved before is almost gone. If this continues, the piglets will not grow meat."

Hu Xiao was also a little worried. The priest went out and handed the tribe over to him, but he failed to do a good job.

He touched Yucao's head and said, "It's okay. I'll bring the hunting team to help you cut grass for the pigs. The piglets won't be hungry."

Yucao's eyes lit up and he said happily, "Captain Huxiao, you are so nice!"

Hu Xiao was about to laugh when he suddenly sensed that an orc was approaching quickly.

He looked around cautiously, but didn't find anything unusual. Yucao wanted to ask him what was wrong, but Huxiao didn't answer. He just asked Yucao to take the children to hide first, and release the cattle and sheep later.

Yucao nodded obediently and hid with his friends.

Hu Xiao quickly asked the hunting team to stand by. As soon as everyone gathered, they saw several giant birds circling overhead.

Hu Xiao's brows were furrowed so tightly that they could pinch a flying insect to death. He stared at the giant bird above his head for a while and said in a deep voice, "Tell the guards to prepare the crossbows."

Tufeng glanced above his head and turned around quickly.

"Why did these orcs suddenly come here?" Mao Yun really didn't understand. She had never seen flying orcs before.

Hu Xiao shook his head, "I don't know. But the cannibals were able to wipe out the Ze tribe all of a sudden, so a few orcs flying in the sky that have never appeared before are nothing."

Mao Yun thought of the river stained with blood and frowned, "No matter what, we have to protect the tribe before the priest comes back."

While the Mu tribe was busy deploying their defenses, Shen Nong, who was sitting on the back of an orc from the Yu tribe, was struggling over where to get off.

The orcs of the Yu tribe looked at the tribe below and couldn't help feeling disbelief in their hearts.

The tribe had well-arranged houses, square plots of land, and many groups of prey. What amazed them even more was the high "stone wall" surrounding the tribe.

"Let's fly a little further and stop in the forest, then we'll walk back." Shen Nong looked left and right but couldn't find a suitable spot.

Moreover, if we land suddenly, Hu Xiao and the others might mistake us for an alien attack.

Just as they were about to leave, the beast god of the Yu tribe who was carrying Shen Nong and Ze exclaimed.

"What's wrong?"

As soon as Shen Nong finished asking, the orc from the Yu tribe suddenly turned sideways and hugged Shen Nong in time to prevent him from being thrown out.

"brush".

The sound of breaking air passed by my ears. Yes.

They hovered over the Wood Tribe for too long, which led to their attack.

After dodging this powerful wooden arrow, Shen Nong chuckled. It was good that he was very cautious.

The orcs of the Feather Tribe did not think so. You know, they were invincible in the air before.

This was the first time they encountered something that could fly into the sky and attack them.

There is no point in continuing like this. The people of the Yu tribe cannot land, and no one below can hear what Shen Nong is saying.

Ze stood up, and a faint golden light appeared on his back. As the light grew brighter, the wings on his back took shape faster.

"I'll go down and tell Hu Xiao, the priest, be careful up there."

Shen Nong nodded. He almost forgot that Ze could also fly.

I saw something flying down from the back of the bird-orc in the air, and that thing was quite dazzling under the sunlight.

Hu Xiao narrowed his eyes, raised his hand and gestured, preparing to fire thousands of arrows to shoot down the orcs above who refused to obey his orders.

“Roar, roar, roar!”

The originally quiet Dahei suddenly shouted towards the air and waved his hands and feet. It didn't seem like he had met an enemy but rather like he had seen someone familiar.

"Dahei, don't make trouble."

Not only did Dahei not listen, he also pressed down a crossbow cart with his hand.

“Roar, roar, roar!”

Hu Xiao was a little unhappy, "If you don't get out of the way, I'll shoot you and hurt you. Don't complain to the priest!"

Dahei stomped his foot and pointed his other bear paw at the sky, "Roar!"

The priest is there! Oh, I am so anxious!

Hu Xiao obviously did not understand Dahei's bear language. In the entire tribe, only the priest could accurately understand the meaning of Dahei's "roar, roar, roar" sounds. For other orcs to figure it out, it all depended on fate.

Because of Dahei's obstruction, the dazzling golden thing came closer.

Hu Xiao couldn't care less about Dahei, and quickly ordered the guards to turn the crossbow cart around and avoid Dahei as much as possible.

"Tiger Roar, it's me."

The sun was shining brightly at this time, and the wings behind Ze were shining with golden light. The people below looked up and could not see his appearance at all.

I always thought Tiger Roar was some kind of bird orc, but isn't this the sound of a beast?

Hu Xiao shouted, "Is it you?"

Ze said "hmm" and didn't care if Hu Xiao heard it or not. The priest was a little hot under the sun. He didn't want to waste time and said directly: "The priest is up there, move the crossbow cart away."

"Okay!" Hu Xiao turned around and waved his hand, saying happily: "The priest is back! Turn the crossbow cart around quickly, and don't hurt the priest!"

The orcs of the Yu tribe landed on the city wall and grabbed the hard stone bricks with their sharp claws.

Shen Nong jumped off the orc's back, and Hu Xiao led the orcs in cheering, "Priest!"

"Sure, you have a strong sense of safety." Shen Nong patted Hu Xiao's shoulder and said with a smile: "You should continue to maintain this in the future, but you must also be careful not to hurt your own people by mistake."

Hu Xiao touched his head and chuckled, "Got it."

Looking at Shen Nong who was surrounded by everyone, Ze felt a little annoyed and wanted the priest to only look at him...

As soon as this thought came to his mind, he was dismissed by Ze. He didn't understand what was wrong with him recently. It seemed that something was wrong with his emotions towards the priest.

He always wanted the priest to just follow him and look at him, and he couldn't help wanting to be closer to the priest, wishing the priest could lean on his arms all day long.

It turned out that he had health problems. The priest had said that if he was not feeling well, he should tell him as soon as possible.

Ze decided to wait until the priest was less busy, then he would go to the priest and tell him about his health problems.

The orcs of the Yu tribe tied leaves around their waists at this time. Shen Nong asked Tu Dong to arrange accommodation for them and then took them to dinner.

We have flown so far and it’s noon now, so it’s time to eat.

The meat of the Mu tribe is better than the soup we drank on the road, and there is also fish, wild vegetables, and some wild fruits.

The wild fruits were a bit sour, but the tribe didn't eat them directly, but poured the juice on the meat. The roasted meat had a hint of fruity aroma, which was very delicious.

The orcs of the Yu tribe became three points hungrier just by smelling the fragrance, and when it was time to eat, they all devoured it ravenously.

After eating and drinking, Shen Nong asked Tu Dong to take them to rest, while he went to the meeting room to listen to Hu Xiao talk about what happened in the tribe in the past few days.

The Mu tribe was peaceful and everyone was doing things in an orderly manner.

The mess is outside.

"I don't know what happened to the cannibals, but they wiped out the Ze tribe overnight."

When Hu Xiao talked about this, he felt a chill on his back.

Ze's eyes twitched, his heart was in turmoil, and he clenched his hands into fists to suppress the unrest in his heart.

He wanted to take revenge himself.. but it seems he has no chance..

The Ze tribe was not far from the Mu tribe, and the Mu tribe often went to the river to fish and cut grass. The Mu tribe was the first to discover that the Ze tribe had been exterminated.

The bright red blood dyed the river water red, and the air was filled with the smell of blood.

Hu Xiao recalled that day, the children who went with him to cut grass for pigs were so scared that they ate less meat. In the following days, they were never allowed to go to the river to cut grass for pigs again.

No one knew whether the cannibals would go crazy and attack them.

Shen Nong was a little surprised to hear the news. He looked at Ze and found that Ze did not show any emotional fluctuations.

So he turned around and confirmed: "Are all the people from the Ze tribe dead?"

"They're all dead. I happened to be there fishing that day, and I noticed something was wrong, so I took the hunting team to check it out." Hu Xiao's face didn't look good when he thought of the scene he saw. "The whole tribe was covered in blood, and the stench was overwhelming."

Shen Nong asked: "How do you know they are cannibals?"

Hu Xiao sighed and said helplessly: "The Salt Department said so."

Shen Nong was completely confused. How did this have anything to do with the Ministry of Salt?

Hu Xiao didn't let Shen Nong wait for long. He went over what happened in his head and then told him everything. "The news of the Ze tribe being exterminated spread quickly, and the Salt Department quickly found out who did it.

The Salt Tribe seemed very angry and dragged some tribes to fight the cannibals. After several frictions between the two sides, the cannibals also began to drag the surrounding tribes to fight the Salt Tribe. "

The more Hu Xiao spoke, the more he sighed. He didn't know how it turned out like this.

"Now, except for our tribe, all other tribes are being dragged by the cannibals and the Salt Tribe to fight each other. The Salt Tribe forced us to help them, but I didn't agree. Then the Salt Tribe priest announced that no tribe was allowed to exchange salt stones for us.

Except for us, the Salt Department will not exchange salt with the cannibals or the tribes that stand on the side of the cannibals. Yesterday, the cannibals led those tribes to attack the Salt Department directly, and it seems that they took back a lot of salt stones. "

Shen Nong coughed lightly. The Salt Tribe was really good at threatening. Their Mu Tribe lacked everything except salt.

"Did the cannibal say anything?"

Hu Xiao shook his head, "They don't have any, and they even sent someone to ask us if we need salt rock."

Shen Nong understood that Wu Ming wanted to win them over.

However, he would not rely on either the cannibals or the salt tribe. These two tribes were equally matched and neither of them was a good person.

Two dogs fight, play off.

This time, the Hemu tribe will be the one that benefits.

But since the water is already turbid, it might as well make it even more turbid.

Shen Nong doesn't think that the tribes that are now helping the cannibals and the Salt Ministry are doing so willingly.

He knew clearly that the Mu Tribe could not really stay out of this melee, but in addition to the cannibals and the Salt Tribe, the Mu Tribe had a third option.

"Tiger Xiao, call Rabbit Wind and Cat Cloud to go out with me."

Hu Xiao said yes, and walked to the door, but he was really curious and asked, "What are we going to do?"

Shen Nong smiled and said, "Go tie up the priests from other tribes and bring them over to drink water."

The tiger roared and his body shook. Although he didn't understand why the priest kidnapped people, he still felt his blood boiling, "Okay!"

..

Kidnapping people is a technical job, and it is definitely not possible to kidnap all of them at once. There are also rules for which tribe's priests to kidnap first. You definitely can't kidnap tribes close to the cannibals or the salt tribe. You have to start from the outer tribes and slowly push inwards.

After it got dark, several figures appeared on a small hill not far from the mountain.

Not only that, there were also several goshawks and golden eagles flying in the sky.

As fellow orcs, the orcs of the Mountain Hunting Team sensed that the goshawks and golden eagles hovering over their tribe were not real animals.

But it is the transformation of orcs.

Songshan looked at the orcs above his head nervously, and said to the tribesmen around him: "Tell everyone not to come out casually."

After giving the instructions, he went to the priest's cave and told the mountain priest Shanfeng what he saw outside.

"No matter where they come from, the Yamabu is already in this state, how much worse can it get?"

Shan Feng just felt exhausted and shook his head and sighed.

"The Mountain Tribe is now being forced by the cannibals to fight against the Salt Tribe. Although the cannibals robbed the salt rocks yesterday, they did not share any with our tribes. We no longer need to eat the salt rocks, and we don't need the cannibals or those bird-like beastmen who came from nowhere to do anything to us. The surrounding wolves can beat us down..."

How could Songshan not know this, but he had no other choice.

The salt stones in the mountains had been eaten up long ago. After all, there was none left after the entire winter.

Originally, I was planning to hunt some prey in the spring and take it to the Salt Department to exchange for salt rocks. However, just as the prey was ready, I was forced by cannibals to fight against the Salt Department.

If you don't obey, you will die.

Their Mountain Tribe was only slightly stronger than the Ze Tribe, but not much stronger. It only took the cannibals one night to wipe out the Ze Tribe. If they wanted to wipe out their Mountain Tribe, they would only need one more sunrise.

Songshan is not afraid of being bitten by too many lice now.

No matter what those bird orcs want to do, let them do whatever they want.

Although the chief and the priest did not say anything, the orcs of the mountain tribe were still focused on the bird-like orcs circling in the sky.

This also gave Shen Nong and his companions an opportunity, and they entered the mountain tribe in the dark more smoothly than they thought.

The Priest Cave is easy to find. The largest one in the tribe must be the Priest Cave.

The Patriarch's Cave is second only to the Priest's Cave.

This time, the Mu tribe had a clear goal, which was to kidnap the priest, so the few people who were shrunk by Shen Nong went straight to the largest cave in the mountain tribe.

Shen Nong also unexpectedly discovered that this shrinking spell had the effect of concealing one's aura.

Until they all arrived at the entrance of the mountain priest's cave, no orcs sensed the orcish aura of Hu Xiao and his group.

"Why are there two people here?"

Hu Xiao looked at the two people in the cave, unsure which one was the priest.

Shen Nong observed for a while and recognized that the younger one was the priest. The man was holding a scepter, which was a smooth wooden stick.

The other one looked fierce, tall, and savage. There was a hint of majesty between his brows, and he was serious.

Probably the chief of the mountain tribe.

Shen Nong pointed at the weak-looking young man and said, "Tie the young and good-looking one."

Ze frowned and said nothing. He set off before Hu Xiao took action. Shen Nong released the spell that shrunk his body the moment he moved.

Songshan only felt a fierce force coming towards him. Although he sensed it, the other party was too fast and appeared suddenly, leaving him no time to react.

The man quickly moved behind him. He felt a pain in his neck, and then his breath seemed to be deprived.

He used his forearm to tightly clamp the opponent's neck, and used his other hand to quickly remove the opponent's two arms.

With two snapping sounds, Songshan's arms were dislocated and hung limply at both sides.

The speed is so fast that it is hard to defend against.

Songshan didn't even know what was happening. He just saw a tall figure, and then he lost all air. Then his arm hurt, and he couldn't lift it up. It hurt terribly to move it.

In order to facilitate the action, the spells on Hu Xiao, Tu Feng and Mao Yun were also lifted.

In order to prevent the uncontrolled priest from shouting, Shen Nong used his supernatural power to stimulate the other party's hair. The thick hair seemed to have life and slowly wrapped around the lower half of Shanfeng's face.

This scene terrified Shanfeng so much that he didn't even have time to wonder why so many people appeared in the cave out of nowhere.

He was frightened by the sudden growth of his hair and lost his voice. He wanted to scream but his throat seemed to be grabbed by a hand and he could not make a sound until his hair covered the lower half of his face tightly.

Shen Nong looked at the person controlled by Ze. Although he guessed the other party's identity, it would be better to ask again to confirm, "Are you the chief of the Shan tribe?"

Songshan was in so much pain at this moment, his face turned red due to lack of air, and his head was buzzing, so he had no time to reply.

Ze slightly loosened the arm that was stuck on Songshan's neck, allowing Songshan to catch his breath and breathe in fresh air desperately.

Ze flicked the other person's arm, causing Songshan to feel pain and black out. "Answer me."

Songshan gritted his teeth, but because it was too painful to make a sound, he could only nod weakly.

Shen Nong chuckled, walked to Ze's side, and patted his arm, "Loosen up a little, we have something to discuss, don't strangle me."

Ze obediently relaxed a little and moved his body toward Shen Nong, fearing that Song Shan would suddenly attack and injure the priest.

Shen Nong took Ze's actions in sight and said nothing.

Songshan took a deep breath and asked in a hoarse voice, "Who are you?"

"I am a priest of the Wood Tribe. I came to the Mountain Tribe to ask for your help." Shen Nong did not keep the secret and directly stated his purpose. "I know that the Mountain Tribe does not really want to help the cannibals. I came here this time to give you another way to go."

"What road?"

Shen Nong said seriously: "Of course we rely on our Mu tribe, but you are still helping the cannibals on the surface."

Songshan seemed to have heard a joke and couldn't help but sneer, "Ha, Mu tribe. You entered the tribe priest's cave without making any noise. The cannibal priest Wuming has never dared to force you. It seems there is a reason."

He changed the subject, "But why should I help you? What are you doing now different from cannibals?"

Shen Nong had a look on his face that said "How can you say that?" He disagreed and said, "Of course it's different. If you follow me, you will be our younger brother. As the elder brother, I will protect the younger brother. If the younger brother wants salt stone, I will give it to you. Can the cannibals protect you or give you salt stone?"
