Chapter 229 I'll Beat You to Death with a Cane
Fortunately, the sailboat was not big, and those who could follow it were the best fighters in the fishing team, with strong combat effectiveness.
In addition, after the breakthrough of the divine vine, every warrior was endowed with powerful self-healing abilities and tenacious vitality.
As long as they don't suffer fatal injuries, it's not easy for the warriors of the Vine Tribe to die.
Because of this, after the battle began, the warriors of the Teng tribe were all injured, but none of them died. This has to be said to be a miracle.
However, even so, the gap between the two sides was still too big. As the battle continued, the warriors of the Teng tribe gradually could not hold on.
A warrior of the Ape Tribe, holding a stone knife in his hand, suddenly jumped off the mast, landed behind a warrior of the Vine Tribe, hugged him, and cut his throat with the stone knife.
This stone knife is made of an extremely hard stone. Although it has poor toughness and is easy to chip and break, its edge is extremely sharp.
As long as the Ape Tribe warrior pulls hard, the Vine Tribe warrior's throat will be cut and he will surely die.
A ferocious smile appeared on the face of the ape tribe warrior, as if he had already seen the scene of blood gushing out.
The warrior from the Vine tribe was also in despair. He was unable to fight back after being attacked from behind.
Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and emotions of fear and despair occupied the minds of the Vine tribe warriors.
However, just when he thought he was doomed, the totem flag fluttering in the wind on the mast of the sailboat suddenly burst into an intense green divine light.
"call out!"
A thin vine wrapped around the ape tribe warrior at lightning speed and bound his arms tightly.
The Ape Tribe warrior suddenly found that his hands were paralyzed! "Snap!"
With a gentle pull of the vine, the stone knife fell directly onto the deck, no longer posing a threat to the Vine Tribe warriors.
"Teng Shen, it's Teng Shen!"
The Vine Tribe warrior was stunned at first, then ecstatic, and then he decisively broke free from the Ape Tribe warrior, turned around, and stabbed the Ape Tribe warrior in the chest with his spear.
"puff!"
The heart of the ape tribe warrior was pierced, and all the strength in his body was quickly drained. He could only fall down unwillingly.
“Crash!”
On the mast, the totem flag fluttered and the vast divine power surged like the waves.
A piece of vine slowly emerged from the totem pattern in the center of the totem flag and became larger and larger.
"The Fuji God is here to save us!"
All the warriors of the Teng tribe cheered excitedly.
Jingjie, who was under tremendous pressure, breathed a sigh of relief. The situation just now was really too despairing.
Now that Fujin has appeared, they don't have to worry about dying here.
That piece of vine gradually evolved into a small divine vine and quickly grew a large number of vines.
“Pah pah pah…”
Those vines were like green whips, lashing fiercely at the warriors of the ape tribe and the monkeys.
"ah……"
“Clatter…”
The warriors of the ape tribe and the monkeys were blown away one after another, and were half dead when they fell into the water.
Underwater, the leader of the Otter Tribe was ecstatic. He led the Otter Tribe warriors and the giant otters to desperately pull them under the water.
Soon, all the Ape Tribe warriors and monkeys on the Vine Tribe's sailboat were cleared out.
The warriors of the Teng tribe burst into cheers again, and their faith in the Teng God became even more fanatical.
"How could this happen? How could this happen!"
On the shore, the leader of the ape tribe was furious and extremely heartbroken.
Not only did we gain nothing from this trip, but we also lost so many tribesmen and monkeys. It was a huge loss.
"Ape God!"
The witch of the ape tribe knelt down towards the old monkey squatting on the tree, obviously hoping that the old monkey could help them get revenge.
The old ape stared at the vines above the fleet, hesitant for a moment.
Judging from the fluctuations of divine power, this vine is not much stronger than the old ape.
But the old monkey always had a feeling of palpitations, and the way this vine appeared was too strange, and even the old monkey himself couldn't do it.
Just as the old monkey was hesitating, the vine suddenly attacked the old monkey.
“Bang!”
An extremely thick vine chopped towards the old monkey fiercely at an extremely fast speed.
“Whoosh!”
The old monkey reacted quickly and leaped onto another big tree.
“Crack!”
After the old monkey ran away, the big tree where he had been squatting was broken by thick vines, and branches and leaves fell to the ground.
Monkeys are irritable, and the old monkey often has the upper hand when facing the totems of other small tribes. How could he tolerate this grievance? "Roar!"
The old ape roared, then leaped suddenly, grabbed the vine, pulled the entire vine to the shore, and then bit the vine frantically with his teeth, trying to bite it off.
On the bow, Jingjie saw this scene and was very confused: Teng Shen is not that weak, right?
At the same time, in the underground cave, when the Otter Tribe witch learned that the divine vine had appeared, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"What a great opportunity! If we go out now and join forces with the Vine Tribe, even if we can't wipe out the Ape Tribe, we can at least inflict some damage on them!"
The witch of the Otter Tribe excitedly communicated with the Otter God for a moment, and then ordered all the warriors of the Otter Tribe and the giant otter to attack !
The Otter Tribe warriors and the giant otters jumped into the water and swam towards the surface of the river. Only those ordinary tribesmen with weak fighting power remained in the underground caves.
On the river bank, the divine ape and the divine vine fought a fierce battle. Wherever the battlefield affected, the big trees would be broken in half, leaving the whole place in a mess.
The monkey god became more and more confident as the fight went on, because it felt that the divine vine was not as strong as it was, and many vines were torn or bitten off by it.
However, at this moment, there was suddenly movement on the river.
"call out!"
A huge otter rushed out of the water and sprayed a terrible arrow of water at the monkey god.
The totem god of the otter tribe appeared! Shen Teng obviously did not expect the otter god to appear, but he reacted very quickly and immediately attacked the ape god.
“Buzz!”
The divine vine suddenly burst out with an extremely dazzling divine light, and all the vines instantly wrapped around the Ape God.
Although this section of the divine vine is not the original body, it also possesses terrifying means. It just showed weakness on purpose because it was afraid that the Ape God would be scared away.
“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh…”
One vine after another, like green chains, wrapped around the Ape God from all directions.
The ape god had all its escape routes blocked, and it tried to bite through the vines as before, but after a few bites, it found that the vines suddenly became extremely tough and could not be bitten at all.
“Squeak…”
The monkey god let out a sharp cry. It was entangled by the sacred vines, as if it was trapped in a cage and unable to break free.
It happened in the blink of an eye.
After the divine vine instantly trapped the Monkey God, the water arrows sprayed by the Otter God also flew over with a sound of breaking through the air.
"puff!"
The thick water arrow passed through the gaps in the vine cage and hit the ape god's thigh.
It was clearly an arrow formed from condensed river water, but it was extremely sharp. The ape god's thigh was pierced instantly, and he let out a shrill scream.
At the same time, the vine cage became tighter and tighter. If the Monkey God could not escape in time, he would probably die here today.
After all, the main body of the sacred vine has become a totem god of a large tribe. Even if it is just a branch, it possesses very powerful power that cannot be dealt with by a totem god of a small tribe.
At this moment, the Otter God also rushed over, waving its extremely sharp claws and slapping the Ape God hard.
The Monkey God struggled even harder in the vine cage, but it was of no use. He could only watch himself being grabbed by the Otter God's huge claws, leaving deep blood marks on his body.
“Pah pah pah…”
The Otter God slapped the Ape God frantically, beating him so badly that he was covered in blood.
At the same time, the Otter God was very careful and tried not to hurt the sacred vine.
Of course, this is a very difficult thing to do. If you want to cause harm to the monkey god, you will inevitably have to touch the divine vine.
Fortunately, the divine vine was extremely tough, and even the otter god's sharp claws could not cut through the vine.
After the Otter God slapped it, the divine vine once again burst into brilliant divine light, and the Monkey God was pulled into the air, and then slammed into the ground.
"boom!"
The monkey god trapped by the divine vine was like a stone. The vine lifted him up high and then slammed him hard on the ground, breaking several big trees and making a big hole in the ground.
Then, Shen Teng pulled the monkey god into the air again and slammed him to the ground repeatedly.
Every time it hit the Ape God, its injuries became more serious. If it continued like this, it would really die! At this time, the Ape God was very regretful. If the Ape Tribe had not been greedy and had not provoked the Vine Tribe's fleet, the subsequent events would not have happened.
Unfortunately, it’s too late to regret now.
“Squeak…”
The monkey god screamed a few times, and suddenly a layer of blood mist appeared on its body, covering the vine cage.
"boom!"
Shen Teng smashed the monkey god to the ground again.
However, when it pulled up the vine cage, the ape god inside turned into a piece of skin.
No one knew what method the monkey god used, but he managed to escape from the vine cage without anyone noticing !
In the distant woods, a bloody shadow disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The Otter God looked at the direction where the bloody shadow disappeared and felt very sorry.
If the monkey god can be killed, the Otter Tribe will be much safer in the future.
"withdraw!"
As the Monkey God ran away, the ape tribe warriors and monkeys no longer wanted to fight and fled away one after another.
They ran in the woods at an incredible speed and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
Lu Zhu led the warriors of the Otter Tribe to symbolically chase for a while, but failed to catch up, so they gave up.
In the sky, the divine vine grew a large number of roots, which absorbed the skin left by the monkey god as nutrients.
After absorbing it, the divine vine shook lightly, and the skin instantly turned into ashes.
The divine vine shrank rapidly, and then with a flash of green light, it sank into the totem flag again.
This time, the warriors of the Teng tribe saw with their own eyes the divine vine enter the totem flag, and they finally understood why the leader insisted that they carry the totem flag.
The totem flag is not only a symbol of the tribe, but also the greatest guarantee for the fleet's navigation.
After the battle, Luzhu ran to the river bank and asked Jingjie with concern: "Leader Jingjie, are you all right?"
Jingjie shook his head and felt some disgust towards the Luzhu and Otter tribes.
Lu Zhu added: "We have been fighting alongside you underwater just now!"
Jingjie said: "Thank you, Chief Luzhu. The Teng tribe will never forget what happened today."
"Chief Nepeta, come down and rest for a while. Your warriors are all injured. We in the Otter Tribe have some good medicine."
"No, we still have to rush back to the tribe to report to the leader, so I won't bother you anymore."
After Jing Jie finished speaking, he immediately ordered the fleet to turn around, hoist the sails, and sail back upstream.
Although it was upstream, the river was relatively calm and the wind direction was good today. Pushed by the wind, the fleet slowly moved upstream.
After leaving the Otter Tribe's territory, the soldiers on the boat said indignantly: "Chief, the Otter Tribe is clearly afraid of death. When the Teng Shen did not appear, they did not even dare to show their heads. And they still talked about 'fighting side by side'. How shameless."
Jingjie's face didn't look very good either, but he was the leader after all, and he could keep things to himself better than an ordinary soldier.
"Don't say any more. Just go back and report the truth to the leader."
The soldiers were still indignant, but they didn't say anything more and treated each other's wounds and applied medicine.
Although no one died in this battle, everyone was covered in wounds. If it weren't for the powerful self-healing ability bestowed by the divine vine, some people might not have survived to return to the tribe.
In the evening, the wind direction changed. The sailboats of the Teng tribe were still relatively primitive and could only use the forward and backward directions. The wind from the left and right sides was difficult to use.
So, they could only row hard with the oars and continue upstream.
It is quite difficult to sail against the current because you have to fight against the current. If you want to stop the boat, you can only rely on the anchor, otherwise you will be pushed downstream by the current.
They used wind power, paddling, and even manual towing, and it took them five days to return to the Teng tribe.
It only took them one day to go there, but five days to come back, which shows how difficult it is to sail against the current.
After the fleet returned to the Teng tribe, Jing Jie ignored the enthusiastic cheers of the tribesmen and went straight to find Jiang Xuan and told him about the attack on the Otter tribe's territory.
"Ape Tribe..."
Jiang Xuan frowned. Sailing in this era was indeed an extremely dangerous thing. If it weren't for the branch of the sacred vine, the Vine Tribe fleet would probably have been wiped out.
Jing Jie kept holding back on the way back, but when he arrived in front of Jiang Xuan, he finally couldn't bear it anymore.
"The Otter Tribe is really too much. We got off the boat at the Otter Tribe because we trusted them, but when we were attacked, the Otter Tribe ran away in the blink of an eye, leaving us alone to face the fierce attack of the Ape Tribe."
Jiang Xuan said: "The Otter Tribe is not trustworthy. We saw that when we were in the Great Swamp. It is normal for us to run away when we encounter a tribe we cannot defeat."
"Jingjie, you are not only the captain of the fishing team, but also the captain of the Teng tribe fleet. When you encounter something, you must analyze it rationally."
"You have to understand that running away when encountering a strong enemy is the reaction of most tribes. Reliable allies like the Mountain Turtle Tribe are rare."
"No matter where you go in the future, you must always be vigilant, otherwise you will be eaten alive."
Jingjie lowered his head in shame. He was indeed a bit careless this time. After seeing the Otter Tribe, he actually let the fleet dock.
In fact, he should have let the fleet stay in the deep water, and then use the small wooden boats on the ship to bring a few people and cargo into the otter tribe.
In this way, even if danger occurs, they can use the small wooden boat to quickly return to the big ship, and tribes like the ape tribe that have lived on land for a long time will not be able to harm them.
Thanks to the book friend "Xianhua Loves Tianwen" for the reward.
