Chapter 25 Bad News

Because they were too far away and the light was dim at night, the two could only see the rough spots clearly. They discussed it for a while and decided to get closer to observe.

The two of them lay on the ground and crawled forward. Because they had no protection from clothes, this posture was very uncomfortable for them. After a while, their forearms and thighs were so painful. However, if they didn't do this, they accidentally made a sound at such a close distance and were likely to be discovered.

The two of them gritted their teeth and endured the physical discomfort, sneaked to a place more than 100 meters away from each other and stopped.

This and the distance are already very dangerous, and if they are discovered, it will be difficult to escape.

The two of them lay motionless on the ground, not daring to let out a moment of excitement.

With the fire, Jianya saw what ceremony was being conducted by the tribe. A man covered in pigments and feathers were decorated with hair, holding a bone stick and dancing a strange dance around the fire.

Jianya guessed that it might be the wizard of their tribe. Although there were no wizards in his own tribe, other tribes that Jianya had encountered before had wizards, so he was not unfamiliar with these.

Moreover, Jianya heard from the old patriarch about wizards. These people are said to be people who can communicate with gods, and they are the wisest people in the tribe. Wang Lang is actually equivalent to a wizard in the hearts of everyone. Jianya respects this kind of people very much, but the next scene completely shocked Jianya.

After the wizard finished a sacrificial dance, he said something loudly in a language that he couldn't understand.

Not long after, a miserable howling sound came. Three people tied up with limbs were lifted out by several men with wooden sticks like pigs and threw them at the feet of the wizard.

The three people who were caught were extremely scared at this moment, their bodies trembled like sieve, and they kept crying and begging.

The wizard ignored the pleas of these three people. In his eyes, the only use of these people was to use their souls to sacrifice to the gods, and the flesh could serve as food for the tribesmen.

The wizard grabbed a person's hair and lifted his head. The man knew that his death was approaching and began to struggle violently.

But all this was futile. A sharp stone knife passed through his neck, and blood gushed out instantly. After a while, due to excessive blood loss, the man's body began to spasm, twitched a few times, and then he disappeared.

The other two saw their companions dying in front of them. The fear of death scared them to their hearts and made them struggle violently, but they were soon beaten and beaten to death.

The wizard turned the killed man over and placed him flat on the ground, cut the straw rope that tied his limbs with a stone knife, took the stone axe handed over by the person next to him, cut the man's chest open, dug out his heart, and then cut off the man's genitals and threw them into the fire.

The burning flames were thrown into the foreign object, and a flame suddenly burst out.

The wizard crawled on the ground devoutly, muttering something in his mouth, and looked very excited. He stood up, raised his hands high and shouted "Yakura" to the sky.

Jianya and Huo didn't know what "Yakura" meant, but when the rest of the tribe heard the expression excitedly, they kept shouting the word. Jianya guessed that maybe this was the name of their god.

Soon the two people lying on the ground also experienced the fate of their previous companions. After the execution of these three people, a burst of cheers came from the crowd, and the three bodies that were stolen were quickly stolen and were dismantled from eight pieces.

Jianya and fire were seeing cold sweat flowing. They were not afraid of death, but if they died in this way, the fear in their hearts would involuntarily occupy their whole body.

Soon something that made the two of them fall into the valley happened. Several men carried a wild boar out, and one of them was holding a big net in his hand. The wizard took it and looked at it, then raised it, and said a lot to the crowd, and then a noise came from the crowd.

Jianya saw that he had hidden prey and was discovered by them. With the existence of the net, those people would soon realize that there were other tribes nearby, which was definitely an extremely bad thing for their tribe.

Jianya patted the fire and whispered: "We must go back quickly. If these people find us, it would be bad."

Huo also knew the seriousness of the matter and didn't say much. The two of them quietly stayed away from here, regardless of the danger of the jungle at night, and hurried back.

After a long-distance raid overnight, the two of them rushed back to the tribe early the next morning, ignored the rest of the tribe and hurriedly found Wang Lang.

When Wang Lang saw the two of them’s eyes were red and covered with blood, he felt extremely bad in his heart. It would make them rush back overnight despite the danger, which means that what happened would definitely be very bad.

Wang Lang took a deep breath, trying hard to prevent himself from panic, and said in a deep voice: "You two come with me."

Jianya and Huo followed Wang Lang to the cave. Wang Lang put a bowl of water for them and said, "Drink some water first and talk slowly."

The two took the bowl, drank it all, wiped their mouths with their arms, and then said, "Lang, we are in trouble."

Wang Lang thought it was indeed not a good thing, and sighed lightly and said, "What happened?"

Jianya and Huo looked at each other, and finally Huo said, "Yesterday we followed and found the tribes of those people. They were different from me. I have never seen such a tribe before. They killed the people they caught and sacrificed to their gods. The dead people were cut into pieces by them without mercy." Thinking of the terrifying scene last night, Huo couldn't help but shivered.

Huo calmed down for a while and continued, "They found the prey we hid and the net."

"What!" Wang Lang exclaimed.

Although the tribe members who were watching in the distance could not hear what they were saying, they could not help but whisper when they saw Wang Lang so disobediently, and the atmosphere of panic spread throughout the tribe.

Wang Lang walked back and forth with a rapid breathing. He didn't expect that things would be so serious. After the initial panic, Wang Lang gradually calmed down and asked, "How many people are there."

"Many, although I don't see it clearly at night, the number of people is more than four or five in our tribe." Huo said with some concern.

When Wang Lang heard this number, his head buzzed and murmured: "There are so many of four or five, and that's sixty or seventy people. What should I do? What should I do?"

"Lang, what's wrong with you?" Huo couldn't help asking.

Wang Lang did not answer the hot words, but kept rubbing his temples and constantly thinking about the countermeasures.

Now the tribe includes only seven warriors, and even if it adds women and children together, there are only a dozen people. With such a small number of people, it will be useless even if the weapons are more advanced than them.
