Chapter 438: Mysterious Tribe



Descendants of the devil? Are you talking about that mysterious tribe?

I remember seeing some footprints in the area near the Deadly River. The size of their footprints was no different from that of ordinary people. At that time, I was wondering what kind of people would live in such a place. After all, they live by water, and the water they drink is the water of the Deadly River. I am afraid that only the so-called descendants of the devil can do this.

On one side, it is said that Miss Su is the daughter of the mountain god, and on the other side, it is said that the people of those tribes are descendants of the devil. These two sound one good and one evil, and there is a sense of opposition. No wonder she is so scared. After all, the things that can scare her must be of corresponding levels. Presumably, the things that even Miss Su is afraid of must not be simple.

In this case, there is no need to drag others into the water. After all, the original mistake was caused by my own greed. I couldn't bear the hunger that night, which led to this disaster. The disaster was so serious that even the so-called adopted daughter of the mountain god felt embarrassed.

I took a few steps forward and came behind Miss Su, saying, "I've figured it out. This matter has nothing to do with you. It's a bother to talk about it. You're living a carefree life here, so why should I drag you into this mess? How about this? Just pretend you didn't hear what I said, and let's skip this paragraph. We came here just to see you. After all, you mentioned in your letter that I miss you very much, but I don't have to ask for your help for anything else."

Su Yuexi was shocked, and immediately turned around, holding my hand, looking flustered, and said excitedly: "No, no, Lord City Lord, I, Su Yuexi, have no such intention. I am not trying to shirk responsibility. I am just worried about you and your wife, so I just muttered a few words casually. Please don't take it seriously."

Her hand clenched mine, and we were less than half a meter apart. We were both face to face, which made her feel a little awkward. She realized that she had lost her composure, and quickly stepped back, blushing, coughing, and saying, "Sorry."

I patted her shoulder and said, "Well, in short, thank you for the information you provided. From this, we can find that tribe, borrow the nectar of life, and get our antidote, and everything will be fine. This has already helped us a lot. We have bothered you for a long time today, and it is time to say goodbye. Next time when we have more time, we will definitely come to see you again, and then we will definitely come to thank you again."

Having said that, I prepared to set off with Yunwen and Lingshang. Seeing that we had made up our minds to leave, she did not try to persuade us to stay, but just sighed a little.

We have no choice at this moment. We really don't have enough time. After today, our city will face the crisis of food shortage, and the poison in Yunwen and I will worsen, and may return to a fatal level. Therefore, we don't have much time to delay. If we say more, we will waste our chances of survival. Now that we have found a way, let's hurry up.

She carried a bag of fruits for us to take back, and kept seeing us off until we reached the entrance of the valley. Then she waved goodbye to us. We no longer had to deal with those red devil spiders. Yunwen sat behind me carrying the bag, and we rode Sanfu, while Lingshang flew by herself relying on the Yinxi Pot, and we continued forward.

When we were flying back a distance, I asked Sanfu to stop on a mountain a little far from the Bauhinia Cave and said, "Listen to me, someone needs to watch over the city now, especially those textile machines, which need to be kept up to date. We don't know what we will encounter when we set out to the West Island this time, nor do we know how long we will stay there, or whether there will be any accidents. Therefore, we must have someone go back to watch over it. At present, I think Lingshang is the most suitable person. After all, you are not involved in this matter, and those little red foxes still need your care."

Ling Shang hesitated for a moment, but then could only say with emotion: "Then you must be more careful, I will wait for you to come back."

Yunwen and I nodded, and she was ready to leave, but she was still worried, so she rushed over, hugged me tightly, and said, "I'm still waiting to consummate my marriage with you, so please don't get into any trouble, okay?"

I almost spit out my mouthful of liquid. Is it that direct? I cleared my throat and said, "Okay, okay, I get it. I'll leave the city to you."

She used her delicate hands to stroke my chest just like she did when she first saw me. It was a caress, gentle and lingering. After a moment, she turned around and hugged Yunwen for a while, then she walked back along the mountain in the original direction. Yunwen and I were the only ones left in this huge mountain, and the crows could be heard all around.

After Lingshang left, Yunwen and I rode on Sanfu's back, thinking of the west as we flew away. As we flew through the sky, we could hear the whistling sound of the wind.

In fact, this time, none of us were sure about anything, especially about that mysterious tribe. Even the mention of it was offensive, not to mention that we were on our way to find them. And just thinking about that just a little bit of West Island water sticking to our skin would be enough to cause us to suddenly die from the toxins. How terrifying must that West Island be?

I remember that when we saw the demon fly with a fluorescent purple tail leaving that night, Yunwen used the language of all things to interpret what the fly said. It said that it wanted to go back to find its master, which shows that the demon fly might have been raised by someone before, otherwise why would it mention the word master. In addition, it is now said that the antidote is also in the hands of that mysterious tribe, which shows that the person who raised it is likely to be someone from those tribes.

In addition, that tribe also controls the nectar of life that allows plants to germinate quickly. This unnatural thing also exists. How can they exist? I simply can't imagine it. Not only that, but I can't help but feel nervous.

What scares me even more is that I'm afraid of seeing something I shouldn't see, such as seeing Bai Lu's body hanging somewhere. If I were to see it, I would find it more or less difficult to accept it.

"Zhou Bo, do you feel that Miss Su seems to be interested in you?" Yunwen asked.

I almost fell off the horse and said quickly, "No, she is just more respectful to us and more modest, that's all. Don't think too much. Besides, even if she is interested in me, my heart is only with you and Lingshang, and I won't go around flirting with other girls."

Yunwen chuckled and said, "Look how nervous you are. I don't mean to blame you. Besides, in order to consolidate their positions, kings in ancient times usually intermarried with women from other countries to stabilize the country. You are now a king of one side, so even if you have three wives and four concubines, it is nothing. As your queen, I should be more generous, because I can't just think about myself, I have to think about the survival of all of us."

"Oh, I'm glad you're not angry." I breathed a sigh of relief.

"Not only am I not angry, I also want to remind you that it is absolutely meaningful to make more friends with such big figures on the island. If she hadn't pointed out some solutions to the problems this time, we might have just had to wait for death. What I also want to tell you is that if she really cares about you, she might set out in advance to find a solution for you, and she might have arrived at West Island earlier than me." Yunwen said.

"That's right, she didn't give the Purple Gold Feather to us, and I also said that we would go back first. She might really think so." I said.

"So we have to speed up and not let anything happen to her," Yunwen said.

I nodded. She was right. I could certainly see that Miss Su had a special feeling for me. It was possible that she wanted to help me so she set out early. But if that was the case, I couldn't let her make too many sacrifices for me.

As a result, I couldn't help but squeeze the horse's belly, and immediately increased the speed of running in the air. The speed was fast enough to make my hair stand up and my face hurt from the wind.

After flying over this mountainous area, we soon saw the deadly Black River. An indescribable stench hit us in the face. After passing the mountains, the temperature dropped sharply. Relying on the strength of our legs in the dog days of summer, we soon reached that area and descended into the jungle on the other side of the river. We stopped on the black soil to rest and look for traces of the tribe's existence.

But then, I saw a footprint. The size of the footprint and the mark left by the shoe when it stepped on the ground were so familiar to me. Wasn't it Bai Lu's footprint? How could it be here?
