After Chacha successfully sent the children to the chief's side, it rushed towards Shao Xuan's side. However, this time, it was attacked from the ground.
There were always people hiding in the forest throwing sharp spears and stone knives at it. Occasionally, arrows with stone arrowheads would shoot out from behind a tree or from a pile of thick grass. This made it very annoyed, as it was still unable to ignore these attacks. If it was hit, it would still be injured.
While dodging, Chacha headed towards Shao Xuan's side.
Shao Xuan's side also noticed Chacha's predicament. If those people who were hiding only attacked and did not directly attack, it would not be easy to catch them. Shao Xuan still had to take care of the children here, so it was impossible for him to deal with those who attacked Chacha.
"How about we don't let Chacha come down, it's not far from the chief's side." Chen Jia said.
"Yes, don't let it come down." Another person also said. In the past, they did not like birds, because some water birds were a threat to the little treasure fish. Once they found a bird that was slightly bigger, the tribe's warriors would throw spears or arrows into the air to shoot the birds down. However, if the birds flew higher, it would be difficult for them to shoot accurately. Every time, they would choose to attack the birds when they were close to the ground. That way, the birds would be restricted by the surrounding terrain and would be easy to hit.
Qing Yi was currently looking for the people who attacked Chacha, but in terms of speed, it was really difficult for Qing Yi to catch them.
Shao Xuan also knew that it was not good for Chacha to come down now, but looking at the situation, if they went over on land, at least two of the five children would be injured, or even die.
After thinking for a while, Shao Xuan said, "I have an idea."
"Really? What idea? "Chen Jia asked. If Chacha could bring them over, it would save them a lot of trouble. They would only be a burden if they stayed here.
"There's no need for Chacha to come down, I will let you safely get on Chacha's back. Don't worry! "Shao Xuan said.
Chen Jia hugged the rattan basket tightly and nodded his head vigorously, "Yes!"
Seeing that Shao Xuan was not only protecting them, but also trying his best to solve the problem, Chen Jia was extremely touched. He had misunderstood Shao Xuan before, but at this time, Shao Xuan was actually so proactive in helping them. Sure enough, Shao Xuan was just like what his father said, Shao Xuan was really a good person! The Yanjiao tribe Shao Xuan belonged to must also be good people.
Not only Chen Jia, but the other four children also had the same thoughts. They felt that Shao Xuan was a good person, and they also believed in Shao Xuan.
"Tie your rattan baskets tightly to your bodies," Shao Xuan said.
"I'm done!"
"When you're on Chacha's back, you must hold on tight. Don't let yourself fall off," Shao Xuan said again.
"Got it, we'll definitely do it!"
"That's good."
Shao Xuan chopped the spear thrown at him to one side, while his other hand reached out to Chen Jia, who was closest to him.
Then, Chen Jia felt himself being picked up by a strong hand, along with the basket, like a little chick.
"Are you ready?" Shao Xuan asked.
"Yes … Yes." Chen Jia swallowed his saliva. He had a bad premonition.
In the next moment, Chen Jia was thrown into the air. His body quickly left the ground, as if he was weightless, and flew into the sky.
The originally tall tree next to him shrunk in the blink of an eye. Previously, he could only see the top of the tree when he looked up, but now he could see a large area when he lowered his head.
As a member of the Drumming tribe who was used to living on wet land and in water bathing areas, he had a natural fear of the sky. They could explode with powerful fighting strength on land, and could smoothly chase after prey in the water. But the sky?
Last time, Chen Jia was in a desperate situation and was pulled up by Shao Xuan from the bottom of the river. At that time, he didn't pay attention to the situation below, nor did he think that something was wrong. Moreover, at that time, he only stared at the river bank, which was completely different from what he felt now.
Compared to the previous batch, Chen Jia didn't experience the stage of safely flying, and was directly thrown out. Looking at the ground getting farther and farther away, Chen Jia felt a sense of dizziness. Completely out of conditioned reflex, he opened his mouth and shouted.
"Ah —"
Chen Jia, who had always thought of himself as incomparably brave, was actually frightened to the point of crying out, and almost wet himself. His cry was so miserable.
The people of the Yanjiao tribe, compared to other tribes, were much stronger. In the past, Shao Xuan thought that people in this world were all like this. But after coming to the Drumming tribe and seeing the people of the Drumming tribe, he realized that this wasn't the case. Therefore, the people of the Drumming tribe, who always thought that they were strong and powerful, would never have thought that Shao Xuan would casually throw Chen Jia and the basket of water moonstones into the air.
When Chacha was young, he had played a similar game with Chacha. The difference was that this time, it wasn't stones or animal skin bags that were thrown out, but people. Of course, to Chacha, there wasn't much of a difference between the two games. The only difference was that this time, it used its back to catch them, and not its claws.
At first, Chen Jia didn't react. After landing on Chacha's back, he didn't even have time to grab onto Chacha's feathers before he rolled down from Chacha's back. When Chacha caught him again, he remembered that Shao Xuan had told them to hold on tightly to the bird's back. In order to not fall to his death, Chen Jia quickly grabbed onto Chacha's feathers. Because he used too much strength, he almost pulled out all the feathers. Chacha was so angry that it let out a loud cry, thinking that when the time came, it would catch this group of people and throw them around for fun.
Seeing that Chen Jia was safely on Chacha's back, Shao Xuan tilted his head and looked at the other four children.
The four people who were standing in the same place with sluggish expressions noticed Shao Xuan's gaze and simultaneously took a step back.
"Either you get killed, or come here." Shao Xuan said.
The four of them were still somewhat hesitant.
"Can you guys be more cowardly than Chen Jia?" Shao Xuan said provokingly.
Finally, one of the children clenched his teeth and braced himself as he walked towards Shao Xuan.
Thus, the second person who screamed was heard.
Then a third, a fourth, until the fifth child was thrown into the air by Shao Xuan and caught by Chacha. Only then was this matter considered a complete success. As long as it was a success, it didn't matter how it was done.
After the five children were taken away by Chacha, Shao Xuan and Qing Yi's burden was greatly reduced. While heading towards the chief's side, they also cleaned up the hidden people.
Along the way, they met a group of Drumming tribe warriors who were responsible for finding and cleaning up the hidden people. After Qing Yi told them about what he saw, they separated.
Qing Yi brought Shao Xuan to the core area of the Drumming tribe, which was also the place Shao Xuan went to on his first day here. There were already quite a few people brought here, most of them were young children and old people.
After completing this task, Qing Yi followed another group to patrol the tribe, continuing to clean up the hidden enemies.
Shao Xuan was called over by the shaman.
After all, Shao Xuan wasn't a member of the Drumming tribe, and the shaman had the intention of having a good relationship with the Yanjiao tribe, so he couldn't let Shao Xuan participate in the battle. Shao Xuan had already helped enough. This was a battle that belonged to the Drumming tribe, so there was no need to involve others.
Since he couldn't participate in the battle, Shao Xuan helped treat the injured. He still had some prepared medicine in his animal skin bag, which he boiled for the injured to drink.
For this, the people of the Drumming tribe were very grateful to Shao Xuan. The shaman also promised that if the Yanjiao tribe needed help one day, they would do their best to help. This was what Shao Xuan wanted. Helping the Drumming tribe was also helping the Yanjiao tribe. With the Drumming tribe here, the Yanjiao tribe would have an easier time coming over.
This battle, from the night when the two moons overlapped, to the next day when the moon disappeared and the sun reappeared, it still didn't stop. Unlike the Yanjiao people who were relaxed today, the people of the Drumming tribe were still fighting hard.
There were many corpses in the tribe, some from the Drumming tribe, and some from the Drumming tribe. Especially in the outer area, many pools were dyed red. Broken limbs and pieces of flesh could be seen everywhere.
Fortunately, the Drumming tribe had the advantage in numbers, and this was their own territory, so they were well prepared and had the upper hand.
A day passed, and the sun set. The battle gradually cooled down.
In the sky, the two moons were separating.
In the woods and around the pools, there were still some people of the Drumming tribe. They were getting more and more anxious and wanted to run, but they were blocked by the people outside. This time, the Drumming tribe was determined to keep these people here to comfort their comrades who had died in this battle.
Shao Xuan, who had just helped carry the injured, came out of the house and saw the shaman standing in the open space, looking in a direction in a daze. That was the direction of the river. And the shaman's face gradually showed a trace of a smile.
At the same time, Shao Xuan felt the ground under his feet shake, and the pool around him rippled.
The shaking became more and more violent, and the familiar sound of thousands of horses galloping came from afar.
The air humidity increased, and the water vapor increased.
The wind began to blow fiercely, as if it was going to blow off the roof. Some of the wooden planks in the house were swept away, but no one cared about that. Everyone in the Drumming tribe had a happy expression on their faces. Those emotionless eyes were now shining with tears.
The rumbling sound, the violent shaking of the ground, and the water vapor in the air all meant that the 'disappeared' river was about to rise again.
"Woo —"
The return of the kings of the river announced the arrival of changes.
The creatures that left during the rainy season all came back with the river.
When the kings of the river swam deeper into the river, everything gradually calmed down.
A huge claw stepped on the riverbank, and a huge body that was over ten meters long emerged from the water. A rumbling sound came from its big mouth, like rolling thunder. At the same time, it looked around, probably sensing the abnormal factors in the surrounding environment.
Soon, it seemed to have found something that made it very angry. A roar came from the river bank, spreading far away. Around it, there were many of its companions. Like it, its huge body quickly entered the tributary.
In the tributary that was expanding due to the rise of the river, a group of big guys was quickly approaching the tribe.
They were responsible for cleaning up the battlefield.
