According to the description of the wanderers, the patrol team immediately went back to inform the others and tried their best to find it. Gua Er and the others might have encountered that kind of insect.
The wanderers who were not seriously injured also helped to find it at the border. They couldn't enter the tribe, but they could still move around the border and help the old He.
Since the faint totem patterns appeared on their bodies, their bodies gradually became stronger. Especially a few days ago, they felt particularly carefree that night, which even made them have the illusion that they were real totem warriors. Because their bodies became stronger, they could walk all the way here and so many people survived. In the scuffle over the mountains, some people wanted to kill them, but they were all killed by their joint efforts. Although they were inevitably injured, they also lost some people.
When the Feng tribe was panicked because of the news brought by the wanderers, the three people who went to find the clues of the lost sheep also got into trouble as everyone expected.
The three children were panting heavily as they ran for their lives.
"Hurry up! Hurry up, it's catching up with us! "Gua Er roared.
They now regretted that they didn't inform the others directly at that time. Not long after they left the place where they grazed the sheep, they were attracted by some wool on the ground. After walking for a while, they didn't meet the patrol team, but they found that something was approaching behind them. The uplifted soil on the ground was approaching them quickly.
The three of them ran and ran. The further they ran, the further they went from the residential area. At first, they were running and shouting, hoping that someone could hear them. They also thought that it would be great if they could meet someone from the patrol team. However, until now, they hadn't seen anyone from the Feng tribe. When they came to themselves, they found that the surrounding area was empty. Although they were still in the territory of the Feng tribe, they were close to the border, so few people came here.
The pursuer behind them seemed to deliberately avoid the patrol team's active place, and had been chasing them here.
The three had little strength to shout again, so they just ran.
Thinking of what he had said before, "If you find the animal thief, kill it." But now, Gua Er knew how wrong he was.
"Run that way, don't run out of the tribe!" Gua Er led the two to turn around, but soon, they found that they were still too naive.
Another brown red insect drilled out of the ground and blocked their way.
The worm was wider than the three of them put together. The part of the worm that came out of the ground was longer than the length of three horses. Its small and sharp head had two chelicerae that opened and closed. Its two front legs were like two long and soft sickles, swinging agilely. One could feel the aura of death coming from it.
"Ah!" Doya screamed, her voice a little hoarse. She shouted, hoping that the patrols around them would come and save them. However, no one appeared in the direction of the tribe.
On the other side of the border, there were small hills. That was the boundary. After crossing those hills, they would be out of the Feng tribe's territory.
Growing up, they had never left the territory of the tribe. The adults had warned them since they were young that they were only safe in the tribe. If they left the tribe, they would be persecuted by other tribes.
But now, they had no choice.
Gua Er gritted his teeth, turned around and shouted towards the direction far away from the tribe, "Run!"
Doya and Ah-Nai followed him closely.
When Gua Er was running, he thought of what his parents had taught him when he was a child. If you met a beast with a sheep and couldn't beat it, you should give up the sheep and throw it to the beast. If the beast had the sheep, it wouldn't chase you for the time being and you would have a chance to escape.
At this moment, there were two insects chasing them. There were three of them. Doya was a member of the Feng tribe like him. Only Ah-Nai was a wanderer. In many people's minds, wanderers were the "sheep" that was abandoned after encountering danger.
However, Gua Er remembered that two years ago, the man who carved the wood for him said that the promise couldn't be taken back. Gua Er had promised to help take care of Ah-Nai.
If there was a second wanderer, Gua Er would not hesitate to kick him to the pursuers behind him. However, since he had promised, he couldn't give up this "sheep". Their ancestors were watching over the grassland. People of the Feng tribe couldn't break their promise.
He was about to awaken his totem power. Yesterday, he told his father that he would become the bravest warrior of the Feng tribe and a famous warrior on the grassland in the future. However, he might not be able to wait until that day.
Gua Er clenched the bone knife in his hand and slowed down his running pace. He pulled out the knife and turned around to look at the two reddish-brown insects behind and on the side.
"You run quickly. I'll hold them off!"
Before he finished the word "hold them off", Gua Er's eyes reflected the insect shadow that rushed over quickly.
The two open chelicerae were like clamps that could clamp people directly. Gua Er could even smell the bloody smell from the insect's mouth and see the wool on the insect's chelicerae.
This was the thief who stole his cattle and sheep!
"Ah —"
Gua Er screamed and waved the knife with his eyes closed.
Puff!
The sound of flesh being pierced sounded. Before that, Gua Er seemed to have heard the whistling sound like an arrow piercing through the air.
Gua Er's hand holding the knife was still trembling, his legs were a little weak and his throat still uttered "Ah" sounds. However, when he felt that he didn't cut anything, Gua Er stopped roaring and opened his eyes a little bit.
The next moment, he was shocked to see that the reddish-brown insect that rushed over was pierced by a spear near its head.
The insect was still moving, but two more spears flew over in a vertical arrangement and pierced through the insect that stood up because of the pain. The strong impact made the insect fall back. Some very fine scales on the insect's body splashed out along with the brown blood, splashing on the surrounding ground, and some splashing on Gua Er's body.
A gust of wind seemed to blow by, Gua Er only caught a glimpse of a gray shadow. Then, the bigger insect that chased from the side was dragged away by force.
Yes, dragged away.
A wolf taller than the tallest warrior in the tribe dodged the two soft "sickles" thrown by the insect, bit the insect's body and dragged it out of the soil completely with brute force. After dragging the insect for a distance, the wolf stepped on the insect's body with its claws and tore the whole insect directly. It was like the omnipotent alpha wolves in the stories.
The brown liquid spurted out from the insect flowed all over the ground, giving out a smell like rotten leaves. One of the insects that chased them just now was pierced through and made a dying struggle. The other one was violently torn off and couldn't be more dead.
There were footsteps and voices behind him.
Gua Er looked away from the wolf with difficulty and looked behind him. Ah-Nai and Doya didn't run. After he stopped, they also stopped two steps away.
Further away, a group of people ran over from the low hill. Gua Er only knew one, Shao Xuan who carved wood for him.
