Chapter 17 Pets
The sky gradually became darker, and the tribesmen who went into the mountains to hunt returned to the village. Many women still quickly dispose of the prey they caught by the hunters as usual.
However, in the simple living room of the village, the village leader Ji Wei had a gloomy face, and Ji Shi and Ji Wu were both clenching their fists tightly, with a hint of anger on their faces.
Especially Ji Wu, with his eyes slightly closed, his chest fluctuated, and his body seemed to exude a faint murderous intent, which made people shudder.
"Master, this matter must not be successful for the people of Haojiazhai, otherwise our Jijiazhai will be in danger."
"Yes, the master of the village, it has been more than a day or two for Haojiazhai to expand the village and become a clan. It is only because of our Jijiazhai's obstacle that Haojiazhai failed. Now Haojiazhai has regarded our Jijiazhai as its biggest enemy. If Haojiazhai joins Chengjiazhai again, it will be even more dangerous for us. What's more, Ji Cheng and the daughter of the Chengjiazhai master are childhood sweethearts, and we are in love with each other. We cannot let the tragedy that happened to Ji Wu happen again to Ji Cheng..."
"Swish".
Ji Wu, who was standing beside him, immediately stood up, and the murderous intent emanated from his body became even more intense, and he sneered: "Hehe, how can I, as an uncle, let Cheng'er repeat my tragedy?"
Ji Wei and Ji Shi looked at each other, and they knew that this incident touched Ji Wu's greatest pain again.
"Okay, both public and private, I will not let Haojiazhai succeed! Three days later, we will take Cheng'er and propose marriage to Chengjiazhai!"
Ji Wei also made up his mind. He didn't want to watch Ji Wu's tragedy that year, and he didn't want to repeat it on Ji Cheng, and he didn't want to see Haojiazhai and Chengjiazhai, which was a threat to the entire Jijiazhai.
The simple tribe members of Jijiazhai are not only the ferocious beasts on the mountain, but the powerful Haojiazhai is the biggest threat to Jijiazhai.
Ji Wei made the decision, and the atmosphere in the living room eased, but it seemed a little dull.
After a long time, Ji Shi said carefully: "Do you want to call Cheng'er to tell him about this? After all, it has something to do with him, so he can prepare for it if he knows it earlier."
Ji Wei thought about it, and finally nodded and said, "Well, call Cheng'er and tell him about this."
After a while, footsteps came from outside the door.
"Father, are you looking for me?"
Outside the living room, Ji Cheng pushed the door open and asked in confusion.
"Huh? Uncle Wu, Uncle Shi is here too?"
Ji Cheng, wearing animal skin, had just arrived from the back mountain when his father called him here. Seeing Uncle Wu and Uncle Shi were there, it was probably discussing the major events in the village.
In the village, no matter what major matters are, in fact, Uncle Wu, Uncle Shi and his father Ji Wei can make a decision.
"Ji Cheng, you, Uncle Shi, Uncle Wu, and I have just discussed it for a while. It's about you."
Ji Wei's expression calmed down and he said with a smile.
"Oh? What's the matter about me?" Ji Cheng asked curiously.
"I'll say it." Ji Wu took a step forward and stared at Ji Cheng and said, "Ji Cheng, you and Cheng Hong, the little girl from Chengjiazhai, are childhood sweethearts. We all know that I will only ask you one thing, do you like Cheng Hong?"
"Ah? Cheng Hong?"
Looking at Uncle Wu with a bright gaze, Ji Cheng opened his mouth but couldn't speak.
Because when Uncle Wu mentioned the name "Cheng Hong", a beautiful girl with a ponytail appeared in Ji Cheng's mind.
Seeing Ji Cheng's expression slightly change, but he couldn't speak, Uncle Shi and Uncle Wu laughed and said, "Cheng'er is embarrassed. Haha, it doesn't matter. In three days, we will be preparing to propose marriage to Chengjiazhai."
"Three days later? Why are you so anxious?"
Ji Cheng felt some of the emotions left in this body, which also affected him now.
His father Ji Wei's expression gradually became solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "This matter should be told to you because Haojiazhai is also preparing to propose marriage to Chengjiazhai. Haojiazhai is the biggest threat to our Jijiazhai. We must not let Haojiazhai join Chengjiazhai, so we have to go in advance. Cheng'er, you can make more preparations in the past few days."
Ji Cheng nodded. In his memory, it seemed that Jijiazhai had been in conflict with Chengjiazhai for a long time ago. Whether it was a big or a small matter, there was a possibility that the conflict between the two villages would break out.
Therefore, since this matter has risen to the entire Jijiazhai incident, even if Ji Cheng opposes it, it will be useless. What's more, in the eyes of everyone, he and Cheng Hong are also childhood sweethearts and the most suitable couple. Ji Cheng is not easy to express his opposition now.
Afterwards, his father Ji Wei gave a few more instructions, and Ji Cheng returned to the house.
He gradually closed his eyes and recalled the beautiful figure with a ponytail in his mind. He knew that it was "Cheng Hong". It seemed that Ji Cheng had a different relationship with Cheng Hong, otherwise he would not have such a deep memory.
However, no matter how you think about it, there seems to be no more memories, only that unforgettable figure.
"Cheng Hong? I don't know what kind of girl he is... I don't even have a chance to object now."
Ji Cheng was also a little helpless. He knew that in the village, as long as the matter decided by his father, Uncle Wu and Uncle Shi could not be changed. He could only wait until three days later, and go to Chengjiazhai to propose marriage with Uncle Wu, his father and Uncle Shi.
****
Three days later, in the back mountain of Jijiazhai, in the mysterious valley.
"Crash".
Ji Cheng jumped onto the shore from the Ice and Fire Pool, revealing his strong upper body. He looked at the sky, which was a little gray, but it also began to light up.
"It's almost dawn, I have to go to Chengjiazhai later."
Ji Cheng began to pick up the animal skin on the ground, quickly put it on his body, and carried the big knife on his back.
"Swoosh".
Suddenly, a white figure rushed out from the cave passage in the valley, and it was a little white horse.
The little white horse rushed to Ji Cheng's side and rubbed Ji Cheng's thighs gently, looking very intimate. Ji Cheng smiled and said, "Xiaobai, I thought you were not here today. Here, this is what I prepared for you."
Ji Cheng took out a large bag of bean cakes, and the little white horse really liked it very much. Ji Cheng stroked the little white horse's back and said reluctantly: "Xiaobai, I am leaving the village today and going to Chengjia Village. This is the first time I have left the village. I may not see you again in the next few days."
The little white horse seemed to understand it too, blinking his eyes and gently rubbing his head against Ji Cheng. A trace of reluctance seemed to be revealed in his lively eyes.
"But I will be back soon. When I am not here these days, don't be lazy, haha, I'm leaving!"
Ji Cheng gently patted the little white horse's head, then put on the animal skin, carried a big knife, turned around and left the Ice and Fire Pond, and rushed back to the village at the foot of the mountain.

As the sun rose, Jijiazhai had already become lively. The hunters who were hunting up the mountain were ready to go up the mountain. However, this time it was not led by Uncle Shi, but by another tribe.
The martial arts field is also deserted today, and only Uncle Wu is practicing swordsmanship.
"drink!"
Uncle Wu seemed to be in a state of interest and raised the huge rock with one hand, looking quite relaxed.
"Uncle Wu!"
Ji Cheng walked over and saw Uncle Wu lifting the huge stone, looking relaxed and relaxed. He knew that a permanent divine seal was engraved in Uncle Wu's body, which could permanently increase his strength, so the power was very powerful.
Therefore, in terms of strength alone, Uncle Wu is the strongest in Jijiazhai, and even Ji Cheng cannot compare with him.
"Cheng'er, I got up so early, are you feeling a little excited?"
Uncle Wu put down the huge rock and began to wink and tease Ji Cheng.
"Cheng'er."
Behind him, his father Ji Wei's voice came, and Uncle Shi was also with his father, and they seemed to be ready.
"Father, will you leave now?"
"Of course, Chengjiazhai is still far from our Jijiazhai, so you have to hurry up early."
Afterwards, his father, Uncle Wu and Uncle Shi took Ji Cheng to the gate of the village, and the four of them stopped. Then, Ji Wei, Uncle Wu and Uncle Shi all blew a rapid whistle.
"Rumbling".
As the whistle sounded, it seemed that the ground of the entire village was vibrating.
"Is the village leader and others summoning the stone-patterned leopard?"
"There are Ji Wu's white barbarian elephant, Ji Shi's black-hoofed cow, what are the village masters going to do?"
"I heard that I went to Chengjiazhai to propose marriage to Ji Cheng."
Hearing such a major movement, the village immediately became lively.
At this time, Ji Cheng stared at the three ferocious beasts in front of him in a daze, running wildly, and quickly came to his father and others, looking extremely tame.
"Old friend, I have to rely on you to hurry on my way again this time."
Ji Wei gently stroked a strong patterned leopard, and some memories flashed through Ji Cheng's mind.
These three wild beasts were all made by my father, Uncle Wu and Uncle Shi, who used the divine seal to crush them with absolute power. I don’t know how much effort it took to tame these three wild beasts.
Therefore, these three wild beasts have since become close to their father and others, and have become pet animals for their father and others.
In the entire Jijiazhai, only those tribe members who successfully possess the divine seal can go up the mountain to tame a ferocious beast alone and become their own pet beast.
Often, the more ferocious and powerful the beast tamed, it means that the stronger its strength, the higher its status in the village.
The pet animal tamed by his father Ji Wei was a stone-patterned leopard, with extremely strong speed and strength, especially the speed, which was almost at lightning speed, and could run hundreds of miles overnight.
Uncle Wu tamed the White Barbarian Elephant, which was a wild beast with infinite strength, thick skin and flesh, and very difficult to kill. It was just a little slower, but it was also suitable for a powerful person like Uncle Wu.
As for Uncle Shi tamed a black-hoofed cow, he seemed to be unable to see anything strange. He was not fast or strong in speed. The only thing worthy of praise was his endurance. He might not be tired even if he walked hundreds or thousands of miles.
Generally, they will only take their pet animals out together when they travel far away or encounter powerful enemies.
"Cheng'er, please sit on your uncle's black-hoofed cow. My stone-patterned leopard doesn't like having someone else on its back."
The father pointed to Uncle Shi's black-hoofed cow, and the stone-patterned leopard under him was also quite arrogant. Except for Ji Wei, he would not let anyone else get close.
"Cheng'er, come and sit behind me. Hehe, are you envious? If you envy me, then try your best to practice sword skills. In the future, go to Beicheng and ask the seal master to carve a divine seal for you. You can go to the mountains and forests alone to tame wild beasts and become your own pet beast."
Uncle Shi said with a smile.
Ji Cheng looked at the beast under the three of them, but he was thinking about the little white horse. If he could ride on Xiaobai, at Xiaobai's speed, he would probably not be as good as the stone-patterned leopard?
"Okay, let's go, as fast as possible!"
Ji Wei gently patted the head of the stone-patterned leopard, and the stone-patterned leopard rushed forward instantly, and the white barbarian elephant and the black-hoofed ox followed closely behind.
Ji Cheng looked back and saw that he was getting farther and farther away from the village. Soon, the familiar Jijiazhai completely disappeared from his sight and could no longer see clearly...
