On the map left by Reed Ye, the marked gathering place of the expedition team is not a place with many people, and it is surrounded by barren mountains and ridges. Probably because of the weather, it rarely rains in this area, and the vegetation on the mountains It is not as dense and thick as the woods on the other side of the Ferocious Beast Forest. There are basically no beasts, and there are not many large beasts.

Such a barren mountain and mountain range is actually a gathering place for long-distance teams. If there is no one to lead the way, it will be difficult to find the exact place smoothly.

At the top of a certain mountain, there are several wooden houses or houses surrounded by vines. At this time, some people in different clothes are looking around on the grass in front of the house.

"How?" Reed Ye walked out of a bamboo house and asked a middle-aged man standing outside.

"The people from the Changzhou tribe just arrived, and the rest are the Tianshan tribe and the Hui tribe," the man said.

"Where is the Yanjiao tribe?" Reed Ye asked.

"Flaming Horn Tribe?" The man didn't remember for a while which tribe the Flame Horn Tribe was. On the way."

"The people of the Yanjiao tribe have no one to lead the way." Another person came over and said.

These are all people who have participated in many expeditions. Later, although they will not participate every time, they will take turns, and each will be an experienced elder every few years, leading the tribe's juniors out. , If all of them are young warriors who joined this expedition team for the first time, not to mention that they can find a place to gather, and no one takes care of them, how many people will die? Total annihilation is possible.

"I heard that Yanjiao will come three times this time? I don't know if I can survive." One person said.

"Not to mention whether they will survive, it is unknown whether they will find this place on time."

Several people were discussing, and then some people not far away said: "Come on!"

In the air, there are two flying points.

"Hui tribe? Tianshan tribe?" Only those two tribes would come over by bird.

No one could tell for a while. But after the two shadows flew closer, someone said, "It's from the Tianshan tribe."

"How do you know?" The young warrior who participated for the first time wondered.

"Birds are different. Birds in Tianshan have white stomachs. Those from Hui tribe are not." said a member of the Yu tribe.

Even though he was participating for the first time, he knew the birds of various tribes. It can be judged according to the morphological characteristics of the bird.

"It really is."

The two figures in the sky flew closer and closer, rushing straight towards this side.

call--

The sound of vigorously flapping its wings sounded.

Dust and gravel were thrown violently. Strong claws claw on the rocky ground, leaving deep claw marks easily.

Those were two huge eagles, standing on the ground with their wings folded, about five meters tall, and when they stretched their wings, they became even bigger. The plumage on the upper part of their body is generally dark brown, with some patterns of different shades of color on the feathers, some mottled, while the part on the abdomen is pure white. Not a hint of variegation. Because they have several hard and short feather crests on their heads, at first glance, they look like they have horns, so they are also called horned eagles.

As a giant among flying birds, only a few birds such as the mountain giant eagle can compare with it.

The front end of the sharp beak is hooked, and the strong claws and sharp nails can easily smash the skull of the prey. It's like a vicious monster is staring at you. Some young warriors met those bird's eyes and swallowed. Fierce.

There are five people standing on each horned eagle, each carrying a large bow. There are three long feathers on the head.

Looking at the ten people who came, Reed Ye greeted the leader who was about the same age as him with a smile, and asked if things went well on the road.

However, the members of the Yu tribe such as Hongxi and Gu Zhi have no good feelings for the people of the Tianshan tribe.

But people from other tribes, especially some young warriors, looked at the two eagles of the Tianshan tribe with envy. When they came, they climbed several mountains, and they would take a long way if they didn't climb. However, like the Tianshan tribe. You can get there directly by sitting on a bird, how refreshing.

People in Tianshan completely ignore the bad sight around them. But to those with envious eyes, they returned a smug smile.

Not long after the Tianshan tribe arrived, the people from the Hui tribe also arrived. As before, there were two giant eagles on the mountain peaks, but this time, there were only nine people who came here.

"Everyone is ready, let's take a rest today, let's go now? Or take a two-day break?" The middle-aged man from the Tianshan tribe swept around and said.

"Let's rest for two more days, and the people from the Yanjiao tribe haven't arrived yet," said Spring Ye.

"There are still people? The Yanjiao Tribe?" Hearing this name, the expressions of several members of the Tianshan Tribe changed.

"The people from Yanjiao are also here this time? There is no guide?" The people from the Hui tribe looked at the people in Tianshan, frowning and worried.

"It was the first time I joined the team, and naturally there was no guide." Someone said.

Without a guide, it is difficult to find a place.

"Then wait for two days. After two days, if there is still no one from Yanjiao, we will set off." The person from Tianshan said.

The other tribes have no opinion. In two days, this is also the last chance for Yanjiao. If they haven't seen anyone after two days, they will ignore it.

Two days later.

In the morning, the people on the top of the mountain came out from various houses, watched the rising sun, packed their things and prepared to go.

The man who returned to the tribe looked into the distance and shook his head with a sigh.

Hongxi and Qu Ce couldn't do anything, even if they wanted to wait for Yanjiao's people, it was impossible.

The people from Mang, Weiba, Hui, Tianshan, Yu, Qianmian, Changzhou, and other smaller tribes from the central region, a group of nearly a hundred people, walked down from the top of the mountain, but when they reached the mountainside, a few words came from the air. There are eagles from the Hui tribe and horned eagles from the Tianshan tribe.

"Come on!" Someone from the Hui tribe said.

In the sky, a figure smaller than the other four appeared, let out a loud eagle call, and swooped down toward the team. When they passed the team, the three figures jumped down.

It is Shao Xuan three people!

"Finally caught up. Sorry, it was the first time I came here, so I was delayed." Shao Xuan said to some of the older people he knew. He ignored the other several malicious gazes.

Reed Ye nodded, "Just catch up. Can you hurry now?"

"No problem." Shao Xuan said.

Without rest, Shao Xuan and the three followed the team down the mountain.

During the process of descending the mountain, Shao Xuan observed the team and found that the undercurrent within the team was not as harmonious as it appeared on the surface.

Shao Xuan took a moment to remind Tuo and Lei to be careful around people and stay vigilant.

Although Tuo and Lei were also vigilant, because they had participated in the tribe's hunting team before, they were used to the tacit cooperation in the team, and when they heard that they were a united team, they were partners, so they relaxed a little, and they also talked with them. Chat around with some people from outside tribes. But since Shao Xuan reminded them to be careful, they became vigilant. Especially those who guarded Tianshan.

Seeing that Tuo and Lei didn't understand, Shao Xuan didn't say much, just hinted a few words. "Don't think that half of the people they say die are all at the hands of slaves and slave owners."

It's not that they died in the hands of others, and there are not many beasts here, so there are only... their own people!

Of course, although they are in the same team, they are from different tribes, and they are not completely their own. Take a closer look, the people of those tribes are all gathered together in groups, and each group maintains a certain vigilant distance.

After leaving the gathering place, the team headed to a direction that Shao Xuan had never been to before.

A day later, they saw a long line of slaves of over 200 people on the road.

Long vines tied the slaves together in strings, and beside the line, there were some people with whips guarding. Those are slaves of higher rank. (To be continued)
