Capturing a Griffin was a very dangerous task.
Griffins usually lived in mountains four to five thousand meters above sea level, and there were countless ferocious beasts along the way.
Moreover, every nest of griffins was targeted by many tribes, so it often meant fighting and killing.
In the entire human kingdom, griffins were a very precious flying beast. The Raging Wave Kingdom only had a few dozen, and so did the Yan Empire.
When the Dragon Temple captured the Armageddon Demon Emperor Søren, they used thousands of griffins because they were bred in their own laboratory.
In the barbarian kingdom, griffins were also very precious.
In the entire Chimera Tribe, there were only a few dozen gryphon warriors.
There was another risk in capturing griffins, and that was being attacked by wild griffins.
Lan Ling had encountered griffins many times. Although they were ferocious beasts, they didn't have heaven-defying attack power.
That was because the griffins they usually rode were domesticated. Their flying ability was preserved, but their fighting ability was greatly reduced.
Anyone who wanted to capture griffins could only capture newborn griffins. Only then could they be tamed, and when they grew up, they would obey the griffin rider's orders.
Those adult wild griffins were not only ferocious and powerful, but also extremely arrogant and free. Even if they were caught, there was no way to tame them. They would either attack humans crazily, smash their heads against walls, or starve to death.
"Do you think foster father will be in trouble?" Dina looked at Lan Ling uneasily.
Lan Ling shook his head. "Don't worry. Uncle's martial arts are so high that wild griffins can't hurt him."
Dina said, "Then the other tribes will also go to capture griffins, and there will be fighting and killing."
Lan Ling said, "How many experts like you can uncle fight alone?"
Dina said, "A dozen is no problem."
Lan Ling said, "That's right. Even if he encounters other tribes, he won't be in any danger."
Dina said, "Maybe Chief Constantine wants to kill foster father."
Lan Ling said, "In his heart, he really wanted to kill Uncle. But not now, Du Yan is still unable to completely replace Uncle. "
Time ticked by.
Thaumaturge never appeared. Dina no longer dared to speak. She knelt on the ground and began to pray.
…
Constantine, who was on the mountaintop castle, was also in a dilemma. He really hoped that Thor wouldn't return.
That was because he really hated this person. He was always righteous, always tough and proud.
But now, not only was the foreign army in desperate need of Slayer, but even the Chimera Tribe couldn't do without him.
Five days later, the war between the Chimera tribe and the Wildhorse tribe would break out.
This time, he was going to use the foreign army as cannon fodder again. Without Suo Mo, the entire foreign race army would lose their soul and most of their combat strength.
Moreover, Suo Mo himself was also an invincible general.
Although Constantine didn't like him, he had to admit that every time a battle broke out, Soma was always the first to charge and never slacked off.
There was another reason why Constantine didn't like Suo Mo. The entire foreign army recognized Suo Mo and not him, the Chief.
"I really hope that Suo Mo doesn't return. That way, Yaya will belong to me," Second Madam Green Snake said in a hoarse voice.
She had married the little girl and named her Yaya. At this moment, she was lying on a small bed and snoring loudly.
Her fair and chubby little body was wearing white underpants. The little wings on her back were also pink and tender. As she breathed in her sleep, they fluttered gently. She was extremely adorable.
Constantine felt a surge of tenderness when he heard her words. This woman had been in his tribe for a few years, but she still hadn't gotten pregnant. It seemed like she would never have a child in the future.
…
There was still an hour before the end of the ten-day period, but Suo Mo still hadn't returned.
At this moment, Lan Ling couldn't help but feel uneasy.
Suo Mo definitely wouldn't be late. There was only one reason why he hadn't returned in time: he wouldn't be able to return.
If he couldn't return, it would be a disaster for Lan Ling.
Even though Lan Ling cultivated at lightning speed, he was only a sixth-grade warrior. Whether it was in terms of martial arts or prestige, he was worlds apart from Du Yan. It was impossible for him to compete with Du Yan for the foreign army.
Once Du Yan took control of the foreign army, it would be difficult for them to maintain their independence. They would soon be devoured cleanly by Constantine.
Emotionally speaking, Suo Mo and the little girl were Lan Ling's only two relatives in the Wildlands. He really didn't want to lose one of them so quickly.
The entire cave was deathly silent. Only Dina's whispers of prayer could be heard.
Lan Ling sat on the ground, motionless.
Suddenly …
A body of energy rushed into Lan Ling's spiritual vision.
Shortly after, Suo Mo, who was covered in blood and covered in dust, rushed in.
His eyes were sunken and bloodshot. It was as if he had lost a lot of weight.
Tears gushed out of Dina's eyes. She called out "foster father" and was about to rush over to hug him.
Suo Mo dodged because his body was covered in dried blood and was very dirty.
"Uncle, are you injured?" Lan Ling asked.
"No, it's someone else's blood." Suo Mo smiled and said, "You must be anxious from waiting. There were too many enemies this time, so we were delayed. We finally rushed back without stopping. Ling, follow me to the castle at the top of the mountain immediately and exchange for the little girl. "
"Yes!" Lan Ling replied.
Dina wanted to follow but was stopped by Suo Mo. He was worried that Dina would be asked to be searched and taken advantage of again.
Lan Ling and Suo Mo rushed to the chieftain's castle at the top of the mountain as fast as they could and were obstructed at the door.
However, the guards were somewhat fearful when they saw Suo Mo covered in blood. After making things difficult for them, they let them pass.
Suo Mo came to the main hall of the castle covered in blood and knelt down before Chief Constantine. "This subordinate was fortunate enough to not disappoint you. I will capture the griffon and present it to Chief!"
This was the first time Lan Ling saw a young griffon. Its entire body was furry. The eagle's beak was still very short and tender. The lion's body was still very short and its tail was only a small segment.
At this moment, the young griffon lazily opened its big eyes and looked at the world curiously.
Griffons were like this. When they were young, they were filled with curiosity and kindness toward the world. They were also filled with intimacy toward unknown creatures. After they grew up, they became more and more ferocious, arrogant, and difficult to approach.
Constantine looked as if his eyes were brimming with tears. He suddenly rushed over and picked up the young griffon, wanting to throw it to the ground. He said angrily, "You almost hurt one of my generals for this little beast. If Suo Mo is injured in the slightest, what's the point even if I obtain ten or a hundred griffons?"
At this moment, Lan Ling was really trying very hard not to laugh.
First of all, Chief Constantine definitely hadn't read the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. The reason he said that could only be attributed to coincidence.
However, he was far inferior to Imperial Uncle Liu.
Imperial Uncle Liu threw his own son, while Suo Mo threw a young griffon.
What was even more laughable was that Suo Mo was the one who forced Suo Mo to catch the griffon.
More importantly, Suo Mo wasn't Zhao Yun.
At that time, Zhao Yun was so moved that his eyes were brimming with tears. After catching A 'dou, he shed tears of gratitude and knelt down to pledge his life.
After Suo Mo quickly caught the young griffon, he calmly said, "Chief is too serious."
He never knew how to cooperate with others in acting.
Immediately, Constantine's heart was filled with hatred. Would you die from acting with me? You're so stiff!
Following that, Suo Mo offered the young griffon with both hands, making Constantine feel embarrassed to receive it.
It was Second Madam Green Snake who broke the deadlock. She gracefully stepped forward and took the young griffon from Suo Mo's hands.
As she walked forward, Constantine's gaze was fixed on Lan Ling. If he dared to raise his head and look at his forbidden object, Constantine decided that he would kill Lan Ling in the future.
He didn't like Suo Mo because Suo Mo's personality was too stiff.
He didn't like Lan Ling because he was too handsome and attractive to women.
Fortunately, Lan Ling's gaze was always on the ground and he didn't look at Second Madam.
Second Madam Green Snake didn't look at him either.
Even though the two of them had done it twice and every part of Second Madam's body had been played by Lan Ling more than once.
But if Constantine were to see through her now, she would definitely be torn apart.
Suo Mo said, "We will take that little girl with us."
Immediately, Second Madam Green Snake revealed a reluctant gaze and said, "You are so busy training, hunting, and fighting every day. You can't eat well. Yaya can stay with me. She is still young and needs nutrition."
"There is no need." Suo Mo said, "Although our foreign army is poor, if we squeeze out all the good stuff, we can still raise a little girl. Ling, go take the girl away. "
"Yes," Lan Ling said. He then bowed to Constantine and walked into the inner hall.
On a small bed, the little girl was sleeping soundly.
She had indeed put on some weight these days.
However, she was only wearing a pair of white underpants on her chubby little body. Lan Ling felt a wave of displeasure in her heart.
Although the weather here was hot, the little girl was still a little girl. How could she dress like that?
He suddenly felt a surge of anger toward Second Madam. Could she disregard the girl's dignity just to look cute?
He picked up the little girl and found that there were still traces of tears at the corner of her eyes. It was obvious that she had just cried.
Yaya woke up and saw Lan Ling at first glance.
A three-year-old girl's memory was very short. She couldn't remember things from a few days ago, nor could she remember people from a few days ago.
And Lan Ling had been separated from her for a full ten days. He was really worried that the little girl had forgotten about him.
Who knew that after she opened her sleepy eyes, she would immediately open her little arms and hug Lan Ling's neck. She shouted cheerfully, "Pa pa, Ba Ba …"
"Little heartless girl," Second Madam said in a low voice.
"Let's go back," Lan Ling said with a gentle smile.
The little girl curled up in Lan Ling's arms. Smelling his familiar energy aura, she felt very comfortable and at ease. She then fell asleep sweetly again.
The reason why she was attached to Lan Ling was not because Lan Ling had rescued her from the pack of wolves, but because of the special energy aura on his body. The little girl instinctively felt attached to him. Therefore, when she saw Lan Ling, she flapped her wings and flew into Lan Ling's arms.
She did not have a good time in these ten days.
It was needless to say when she was with Ge Lu. She had to face a pair of evil eyes at all times.
And when she came to Second Madam's place, she had to eat good food and wear good clothes. But every night, she would be startled awake. Every two hours, she would wake up crying.
Now that she was back in Lan Ling's arms and smelled this familiar aura, she felt truly safe.
"Alright, since you've brought back your daughter, you can leave," Constantine said coldly.
He was a temperamental person. He wanted to learn from Imperial Uncle Liu to win people's hearts, but he would immediately change his attitude when he didn't get a response. He had no patience.
Suo Mo said, "I still have one more thing to report."
Constantine said coldly, "Speak."
Suo Mo said, "I was lucky this time and caught a total of three young griffins. I'm willing to offer two to the tribe and leave one for the foreign troops."
When he said this, not only was Constantine stunned, but even Lan Ling was astonished.
He had actually caught three?
Constantine was overjoyed. Griffins were incomparably precious. Every one of them was a powerful combat force.
Greed rose in his heart, and he wanted to occupy all three griffins.
But he still felt pressured by his unsightly table manners. He still wanted to save face.
He had only given Suo Mo a mission of only one, but Suo Mo had offered two. If he still wanted to snatch the third one, it would be too shameless.
Moreover, the tribe had a clear rule that anyone who caught two griffins only needed to offer one. The other could be raised and promoted to a Griffin Knight.
Griffin Knights were the top of the pyramid of the entire tribe and the goal of countless warriors.
Currently, among the young heroes who wanted to marry the chief's daughter, Ninian, the Griffin Captain was the most powerful competitor.
"Yes!" Constantine responded.
Suo Mo immediately offered the second one and held the third one in his arms. He left the castle with Lan Ling and the little girl and returned to the camp of the foreign troops.
After Suo Mo left, Constantine said coldly, "What an untamed dog."
…
Not long after leaving the chief's castle, Lan Ling and the other two met someone they hated.
It was the chief's wife's younger brother, Goufu! The husband of the fox beauty, Little Tanuki!
He staggered out of the tavern and said to the side, "She's a woman. If she's disobedient, just give her a beating. Two punches and she'll be obedient. This is how I treat my wife."
Following which, he discovered Lan Ling and Suo Mo. He staggered over and pointed at the little girl in Lan Ling's arms. "Foreign dog, this is your daughter. Her flesh is really tender. I caught her and cooked her that day."
Lan Ling's eyes narrowed when he heard this.
This Goufu was dead for sure!
No, he couldn't let him die. He had to make him feel worse than death.
"Suo Mo, why didn't you die outside?" Goufu sneered and spat on Suo Mo's face.
Suo Mo wiped his saliva and said, "Lord Goufu, can I go now?"
"Haha …" Goufu laughed heartily and pointed at the little girl in Lan Ling's arms. "I'll slaughter this little bastard one day and make him a dish to go with wine for you."
Then, he staggered away.
Lan Ling and Suo Mo continued to walk.
When Suo Mo saw Lan Ling's calm face, he was filled with uneasiness and said, "Little Ling, don't let your emotions get the better of you. You'll ruin the big picture."
Lan Ling said, "Don't worry, Uncle."
…
After returning to the cave, the little girl had already woken up and was looking at Suo Mo and Dina curiously.
Dina hugged her in her arms, and her heart was filled with tender affection.
Suo Mo took out the third griffin and handed it to Lan Ling. "Little Ling, come to my side. This uncle of yours is too poor and doesn't have a greeting gift. I'll give this griffin to you. Let it grow up with the little girl. "
When he said this, Lan Ling's eyes became hot and tears almost flowed out.
The reason why Uncle Suo Mo rushed back so late was to give him a gift. Therefore, he wanted to catch three griffins.
That was because he could only keep one by catching three.
Lan Ling took it and said with a trembling voice, "Thank you, Uncle!"
"I want, I want …" When the little girl saw it, she pounced over excitedly. Furthermore, she flapped her wings and flew over from Dina's embrace. She stretched out her chubby little hands to stroke the griffin.
This young griffin also opened its eyes wide and looked at the little girl curiously. It let out a delicate quack sound.
The little girl also mimicked and let out a quack sound.
When the three adults saw this, they also burst into laughter.
The entire cave was brimming with an incomparably happy atmosphere.
The little girl was still young and didn't know how to think or speak.
However, she could also feel that even though this cave was much more shabby than the castle at the top of the mountain, this place was more fun and joyful.
Before Suo Mo went to take a bath, he said to Lan Ling, "Little Ling, how's the progress of your cultivation these few days?"
Dina said, "Foster Father, Lan Ling has already broken through to the sixth rank martial artist."
When these words came out, Suo Mo staggered and turned his head in disbelief. "He broke through from the third rank martial artist to the sixth rank martial artist in 11 days. My god!"
Subsequently, Suo Mo said, "There are still five days before we start the war with the Wildhorse tribe. At that time, I hope that you will be able to make contributions. Not only will you be promoted, but you will also gradually establish prestige in the foreign army."
