She walked forward about seven or eight meters before she tiptoed to a stop.
This section of the road was very difficult to walk on. She would bump into some small stones from time to time. When she reached the end, the space suddenly became clear.
She hid in the shadows and peered inside.
There were crowds of people inside. Jiang Xue counted them carefully and found that it was no wonder that Mu Xin said there were more than a dozen people guarding inside. In fact, there was someone holding a torch to supervise each worker.
Jiang Xue really didn't expect that they were using tools to pry the stones in such an environment using the faint light emitted by torches.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Xue frowned.
What kind of stone is this and why did they come here to dig?
A torch suddenly appeared at the exit, and the people inside immediately walked towards the passage.
As they walked, they said, "What's going on today? It's not even dinner time yet, so why are you delivering food?"
Jiang Xue leaned against the stone wall with her back, waiting quietly for him to come over.
The man said unhappily, "What's wrong with you? If you want to deliver the food, just send it over directly. Do you want me to come and get it?"
Jiang Xue carefully took out a hidden arrow and held it in her hand.
The man couldn't wait any longer and walked towards her, cursing: "Ton'ND, we've been waiting here every day, and you're so slow to deliver food. Don't you want to live anymore?"
The footsteps were getting closer and closer. Jiang Xue took a deep breath, tightly grasped the sleeve arrow, and prepared to start.
When the man came to Jiang Xue's side, before he could say a word, Jiang Xue raised the arrow from her sleeve and stabbed him in the chest.
The man was stunned, then shouted: "Enemy attack!"
Jiang Xue didn't give him another chance. She threw the torch and punched him in the stomach.
The torch fell to the ground, rolled a few times, and soon went out.
The incident happened suddenly. The supervisors in the cave left their workers behind and ran towards Jiang Xue with torches in hand.
Jiang Xue crouched down and quickly slipped in along the stone wall.
Mountains of stones had been mined out from here. Before they could rush over, Jiang Xue aimed at the torch and shot a sleeve arrow.
The man fell straight to the ground without even having time to scream.
"Damn, what's going on!"
Another person who didn't believe in evil rushed up with a torch. Jiang Xue took aim again, and with a whoosh, the person fell to the ground.
Jiang Xue didn't want to fight either. She shot an arrow and quickly changed her position.
After shooting three arrows in a row, her men had already reached the innermost part.
While they were in chaos, she quickly loaded a hidden arrow, raised her arm again, and fired another arrow at a torch.
"Over there!" Only then did someone react and pointed at Jiang Xue's location, saying, "Be careful to surround him and don't let him get away!"
The remaining people suddenly formed a circle holding torches.
Jiang Xue was not surprised by this. She thought this must have been Qi Wu's idea.
This guy is about to die, but he is still trying to trip me up.
However, Qi Wu certainly didn't expect that his self-righteous method of forming a circle was completely useless in her eyes!
A smile appeared on Jiang Xue's lips, and a huge fireball suddenly flew towards them.
"Oh my god, a witch has come!"
The people of the Eagle Tribe were shocked when they saw the fireball. Just as they were about to run away, the fireball exploded instantly and blew them all away!
After finishing all this, Jiang Xue finally had time to glance at the task. The string of numbers at the bottom became [128/132]
Jiang Xue then stood up and clapped her hands. Only four people were killed. It seemed that the mission was about to be completed.
Then, she picked up a torch from the ground, lit it, and shouted to the people in the cave: "Are you all from the Snake Tribe? Don't worry, Chief Mufeng is here to take you home."
Hearing her call out Mu Feng's name, a man suddenly became excited: "What did you say? Did Mu Feng ask you to come?"
"Yes, Mu Xin is waiting for everyone outside. Let's go out quickly. We have all the people from the Eagle Tribe under our control."
After hearing what she said, everyone dropped their tools and swarmed around Jiang Xue: "Who are you? I've never seen you before in the Snake Tribe."
"This is a long story. How many of us are down here?"
"There are only eleven of us left alive. The others were tortured to death by them!" A child about fifteen or sixteen suddenly burst into tears. "If it weren't for my uncles and aunts taking care of me, I would have died long ago."
He cried and complained, "Why did you come so late? If you had come earlier, Xiaodong and Anan wouldn't have died."
Jiang Xue frowned and said, "Okay, now is not the time to talk about this. Come up with me quickly. I will tell you in detail after we return to the tribe."
Having said that, she drove everyone out like a duck to a shelf.
When we reached the stairs, Mu Xin was still there.
Seeing them all coming out, Mu Xin excitedly said, "Xue Wu, is that you?"
Jiang Xue responded, "It's me. I rescued all the brothers. Let's go up quickly."
Soon, everyone came to Mu Feng under the leadership of Mu Xin.
Mu Feng was so anxious that he was running around like an ant on a hot pan. Suddenly, a long-lost voice came over: "Mu Feng, you are not dead!"
Hearing his voice, Mu Feng suddenly became excited. He rushed forward in two steps and hugged the man, but he didn't hesitate to scold him: "Brother Lin, you are not dead, how could I die?"
Jiang Xue looked at the excited Mu Feng, coughed lightly, and asked for credit: "Well, I said I would bring everyone up, didn't I lie to you?"
Mu Feng nodded at her emotionally: "Axue, thank you this time."
Jiang Xue shrugged indifferently: "What are you going to do with this group of people?"
Mu Feng pondered for a moment, then whispered to her, "Axue, there are too few women in our tribe. We should take them back with us. They can give birth to more children for our tribe in the future."
Jiang Xue looked at him speechlessly.
It is true that the total number of people in the Snake Tribe, including the newly born Muzi, is 128, but there are only less than 40 females. In other words, in the future, there will definitely be situations in the tribe where you and I have sex today, and I have sex with you tomorrow.
After all, there are too many people and too little food. It is still difficult to make all the people in the tribe adopt monogamy at this stage.
"So, you mean to take all the women here back home?"
But if they bring all the people here back, their caves will no longer be able to accommodate them!
Previously, the tribe only had fifty or sixty people, so it was quite spacious to live in. The sixty or seventy people who merged into the bear tribe could barely fit in. But now that so many people were to be brought in, the cave was simply too crowded to live in!
