The three children's faces still showed the relief after the crisis, as well as the fear that had not completely disappeared.
Two years had passed, but Ah-Nai still remembered Shao Xuan. Therefore, after seeing Shao Xuan, Ah-Nai was relieved and couldn't help showing joy on his face. His grandfather had said that Shao Xuan was from the same tribe as them.
Lang Ga and the others went over to look at the worm that was still struggling. They had never seen this kind of strange worm. Perhaps, they only lived on the grassland.
"Ah-Nai, why are you here?" Shao Xuan came over and asked. If they hadn't arrived in time, the situation would have been terrible if they had been late.
Ah-Nai briefly told them what had happened.
"It should be these worms that stole it. I heard that there was a tribal war on the other side of the mountain. Recently, there have been more and more beasts around here. These worms may have come from the mountain. "Ah-Nai told them his guess.
"Well, it should be them. Where is your grandfather? "Shao Xuan asked again.
"Grandfather is waiting for Uncle Kun and the others. He has been waiting for more than ten days." Ah-Nai said.
Shao Xuan had a general idea in his mind. Just at this time, he heard the sound of hoofs.
"The people of the Feng tribe are here." Shao Xuan said.
Hearing Shao Xuan's words, Doya and Gua Er also looked around.
Doya was still vigilant just now. Even if these people had saved them, she was still vigilant against outsiders. Seeing that Ah-Nai and Gua Er were familiar with them, her vigilance faded a little, but she still carefully looked at these outsiders whom she had never seen before. These people looked difficult to deal with and would not lose to the warriors of the patrol team in the tribe.
Seeing the patrol team appear from the mound, Gua Er and Doya immediately shouted with joy.
The team of the Feng tribe was led by Yi Bei, the leader of the patrol team. Shao Xuan had seen him before. Gua Er's father was also among them, and his face was full of sweat.
Seeing that the two children were fine, the weight on the hearts of the patrol team was lifted. However, the appearance of these people made them vigilant again. Not to mention, there was an unusual wolf beside him. Those who had hunted wolves before could tell that this wolf was different from the ones they had killed before. Against such a wolf, unless it was the leader, it would be very difficult to win. It was on a completely different level from the wild wolves in the forest.
After Gua Er's father arrived on a horse, he checked to make sure that Gua Er was not injured, and then he paid attention to these strangers.
Yi Bei had an impression of Shao Xuan, but he couldn't recall his name.
Shao Xuan stepped forward and said, "Shao Xuan of the Yanjiao Tribe."
"Oh, right. You came here with the expedition team before." Yi Bei remembered.
Hearing the name "Shao Xuan", Gua Er's father also knew that this was the carver of the wolf wood carving. He looked at the wolf next to him and compared it with his own wood carving. It was really similar! That was how the wood carving was done back then, right?
After briefly introducing Mai and the others, Shao Xuan told them the purpose of their visit.
"We came to pick up people and see if we can trade some healthy livestock cubs."
Yi Bei looked at the group behind Shao Xuan. All of them had a kind of fierce fighting spirit. Although they were not aggressive, they could not be ignored. If they met such a team at ordinary times, the people of the Feng tribe would immediately sound the alarm. But these people had just saved the children of their tribe, and one of them knew them.
Yi Bei noticed that the patrol team kept glancing at the wolf after they came over. He was also shocked. He had never seen such a wolf on the grassland. Maybe some tribes in the grassland had wolves of such size, like the ferocious beasts in the Hui tribe. But after all, there were very few tribes like that on the grassland. They were all famous big tribes, not inferior to those in the central region. But in front of him, they were from the unknown Yanjiao tribe.
No matter what he thought, since the other party was not malicious or aggressive, and their words showed that they wanted to make a deal, Yi Bei showed a warm attitude.
Letting people take the two dead insects, Yi Bei took Shao Xuan and the others to the tribe.
At that time, Shao Xuan was with the traveling team. He was not from the Pu tribe, so naturally, he did not get much attention. But this time, they came in a team representing the tribe, a mysterious tribe that could not be underestimated. Yi Bei could not be careless. He also let people go back to report to the Shaman and the chief.
Shao Xuan and the others did not go directly to the Feng tribe, but went to the place where Old He and the others were.
The wanderers who went out to help find Ah Nai had received the news and rushed back. Old He was also told that Ah Nai was fine. When he was thinking about whether to go back to see his grandson, he saw a group of people coming.
"Shao … Shao Xuan?!" Old He saw Shao Xuan and his grandson Ah Nai, who was beside Shao Xuan.
Hearing the name "Shao Xuan", the people who were sitting on the grass immediately stood up and stretched their necks to look over. They heard from Old He that the totem warrior who appeared in the tribe two years ago was called Shao Xuan.
So, the people from the tribe came?
Thinking of this, the wanderers were excited.
Even those whose legs were injured asked their companions to help them up and looked at the group of people coming over. They had never seen them before, but they felt familiar. They were indeed from the tribe.
"Yes … Yes, are they from the Yanjiao tribe?"
"They are from 'our' tribe!" Someone corrected.
"They are really from the tribe. They must be totem warriors!" The grassland tribes treated totem warriors differently from wanderers. They could see the cautious attitude of the patrolling members of the Feng tribe, so they must be totem warriors, not wanderers like them.
"Look, there are wolves!"
"What a big wolf! Is it domesticated? "
Old He was so excited that he stepped forward to greet them.
"Grandpa!" Ah Nai rushed to the old man and told him what had happened before.
Looking at his grandson who was safe and sound, Old He looked at Shao Xuan and the others and thanked them again and again.
"Long time no see, Old He." Shao Xuan said with a smile.
Looking away from Old He, Shao Xuan looked at a young man who was coming over.
The person's face was filled with excitement and nervousness. He had a square face, and because he often worked outside, his whole body was tanned. His palms were rough, and there were many wounds and scars on his body. Some were new, and some were old. Under the animal skin clothes with several holes, there were traces of grass ropes on his shoulders. Because of the hard life, he was not very strong compared to the other warriors of the Yanjiao tribe, but he had a strong spirit. Probably because he had not had a good rest for many days, he looked a little tired, but he looked at the warriors of the Yanjiao tribe with burning eyes.
"His name is Kun Tu. He was going to take us back." Old He introduced him.
Shao Xuan nodded and stepped back. He pointed to Mai next to him and introduced him to the wanderers, "This is the leader of our team, senior totem warrior, Mai."
Shao Xuan deliberately mentioned "senior totem warrior" to make the wanderers feel more at ease, and also to let Mai know his existence here. If these people awakened their totem power in the future, Mai could take them as his subordinates.
For the wanderers, totem warriors were rare, let alone senior totem warriors. Wasn't that the same level as the leader of the patrolling team of the Feng tribe?
Mai asked people to distribute some food and herbs to the wanderers, and then he talked with Kun Tu and asked for details.
"Mai, Shao Xuan, our chief wants to see you." Yi Bei came and said.
Shao Xuan looked at the wanderers. Yi Bei saw it and smiled, "They are coming too."
From now on, Kun Tu and the others were no longer wanderers. Since they were no longer wanderers, their attitude was naturally different.
It was different to have the support of the tribe. The wanderers were so excited that they could not calm down for a long time.
After finding a place to settle the injured and tired wanderers, Mai took people to the chief of the Feng tribe.
The chief of the Feng tribe mainly wanted to meet the people of the Yanjiao tribe and see what kind of people they were. At the same time, he also wanted to thank them for the strange insects.
Hearing that they were going to trade livestock, the chief of the Feng tribe asked people to take Shao Xuan and the others to pick livestock.
Mai stayed there to talk with the people of the Feng tribe, and Shao Xuan took ten people to pick livestock. The livestock were not always in the same place. Sometimes they would go to one place, and if they did not have enough, they would go to another place.
When Gua Er saw Shao Xuan take people and wolves to his home, he was very excited.
"Dad, a living wolf, a living one!"
"I know! Don't go there, or it will eat you! "
Gua Er's father went over to help Shao Xuan pick the livestock, but Gua Er didn't dare to approach, so he could only stand not far away and watch. He had already forgotten the panic of encountering the strange insects before, and now he had time to stare at Caesar.
Not only Gua Er, but also many people around, no matter adults or children, especially those who were close to Gua Er. They had also seen Gua Er's wood carving. Gua Er had taken it out and compared it with them. They had thought that the wood carving was too exaggerated. Some of them had seen a wolf pack and the head of a wolf pack, but they had never seen such a wolf. Look at the claws and teeth of the wood carving, and the momentum, it was too exaggerated.
However, now it seemed that the wood carving was not fully shown. Sure enough, it felt different to see a living one. Being stared at, they felt a chill on their backs.
Shao Xuan asked people to help him pick some livestock, and he also picked some himself. There were cattle, sheep, and horses. They were all young animals that could walk and run. Because the chief valued the Yanjiao tribe, the people who helped him pick the livestock did not dare to fool around. They picked carefully.
After picking, they traded with water moonstones or shells. Before Shao Xuan came, he had already exchanged water moonstones for shells and other things in a market. So no matter what the Feng tribe accepted, Shao Xuan could take them out.
In the end, there were twenty cattle, sheep, and horses, male and female.
After picking, he asked the wanderers to look after them. They had experience and could take good care of them.
That night, the people of the Yanjiao tribe stayed in the Feng tribe. Because of the war on the other side of the mountain, more beasts came over the mountain.
On this side of the mountain, in addition to the Feng tribe, there were several other tribes that had been attacked by strange insects and beasts. Naturally, there were more people patrolling at night.
Caesar lay on the grass outside, listening to the cries in the distance. He felt that it was too noisy, so he stood up and shook his fur. Then he raised his head and howled to the sky.
"Ow —"
The howl passed through the grassland of the Feng tribe and spread to farther places. It could even be heard in the mountains.
The cattle and sheep of the Feng tribe were shivering in the pen. Many horses in the pen were also anxious, but not too much. They did not feel the murderous intent against them. Some of them had faced the wolves before, so they were not timid.
Some beasts wandering around the border of the Feng tribe did not hesitate to turn around and run away after hearing the howl, especially the wolves.
Invisible underground, several insects that were heading towards the Feng tribe also paused, probably thinking about something. After a while, they also turned around and ran towards other tribes.
After the howl, there was silence.
Caesar did not hear any provocative howls. Satisfied, he lay down again and continued to sleep.
The warriors of the Feng tribe patrolling on the grassland looked at the beasts in the distance and looked at each other.
