Chapter 184 Bringing the Wizard Back
"I got the guidance!" Someone shouted, "I got the guidance! What Ah Niu said is true!"

It was dawn, and the camp of the tribe at the foot of the mountain was already full of noise.

A succession of people claimed that they had dreamed about the deceased and received guidance from their ancestors. Every time a person came forward to speak out, it caused a commotion and discussion, and they scrambled to ask for details.

Those who dreamed of being guided couldn't hide their complacency. There are so many people in the tribe, but only a few people have been guided. This is enough to prove their status in the hearts of their ancestors.

They talked a lot, looked excited, and beamed with joy. Although the objects and scenes in their dreams were different, the guidance they received was the same: Dashan was brewing terrible anger, and it was likely to affect them!

It is also said that the Sky Clan are trustworthy and friendly guests, and the ancestors obviously heard their prayers, knew their concerns, and responded accordingly.

Everyone was completely relieved, and their eyes fell on A Niu. These guidelines were consistent with what he said.

A Niu raised his eyebrows, hummed and said, "I told you yesterday, but you still don't believe me, do you believe me now?"

Before the words fell, another shout suddenly sounded in the camp: "I have been guided!"

Babu jumped up as soon as he opened his eyes, and rushed out of the tent in a hurry, intending to tell everyone the important news, but then he found that the clansmen were gathering together, discussing enthusiastically.

He couldn't help being a little dazed, and asked in surprise, "What happened?"

After asking, he realized that he was not the only one who received guidance. Before him, several people claimed to have dreamed about their ancestors.

Babton felt that he lacked interest, and when he told the story, everyone was no longer surprised.

If it is said that only Ah Niu got guidance in the dream, it may be an accident, but five people including Babu all had similar dreams, which is enough to prove that it is indeed the ancestors giving them guidance through dreams.

What the sky priest from afar said was true, the lost clansmen really turned into stars in the sky, watching them from the sky all the time, as long as they looked up at the sky, their prayers would be heard!

After dark, I will also pray to the sky... Everyone thought in their hearts.

As for those who prayed last night but did not receive guidance, they thought that they were not sincere enough, and hurriedly learned from Babu and others.

Babu is also confused, he feels that he is no more sincere than others, but this does not prevent him from bragging about himself with embellishments.

What happened among the people at the bottom of the mountain quickly spread to the ears of the people at the top of the mountain.

Compared with the people at the bottom of the mountain who were discussing enthusiastically, the people on the mountain were as quiet as if they hadn’t woken up. Although they didn’t say anything, they couldn’t hide their surprise. They didn’t take what A Niu said at first, but now their will began to waver.

Who wouldn't want to be guided by their ancestors?Even without guidance, it is very attractive to be able to reunite with the departed clansmen in a dream.

They didn't dare to make a statement, they just went about their own business in silence, glancing at the only remaining priest in the tribe from the corner of their eyes from time to time, trying to get a glimpse of his attitude from his expression.

However, Chi Yan remained expressionless, as if living in another world, ignorant of what happened there.

Chi Yan watched with cold eyes, he tried his best to remain unmoved, and he was no less shocked than the others.

The power of the sky is so powerful!You don't need long-term service, you don't need rich sacrifices, you can get guidance simply by looking up at the sky and praying to the sky?

This is not reasonable!

His cognition of the gods was completely overturned, especially when he saw the faces of these mountain people who disrespected the spirit of fire, he couldn't help but feel annoyed.

He wanted to look up at the sky countless times, but tried his best to hold back the urge.

What was even more ominous was that he heard people at the foot of the mountain discussing how to deal with Da Shan's anger.

When the mountain will get angry, no one can say for sure, the people down the mountain will probably choose to wait and see for a period of time, and will not go deep into the forest before the mountain gets angry.

"My lord priest."

Chi Yan looked away, and took the food that Ah Meng handed over.

"Master Priest, Babu and the others are ready to leave. I have selected four outstanding hunters to go with me."

Chi Yan drank the vegetable soup and hummed absently.

Ah Meng hesitated for a moment, then asked: "If, as Ah Niu said, the wizard named Lin has the same blood as the high priest, what should we do?"

"Bring her back and use the high-grade holy stone in exchange for her to help us calm Dashan's anger."

"But we haven't found Chishi yet."

After what happened last night, Ah Meng already knew the reason why the high priest was able to control the flames. Without Chishi, everything would be out of the question.

"It will be found."

Chi Yan said with certainty, but he didn't have any idea in his heart, but no matter what, he had to invite people first.

He thought for a while, and added: "Let's just say we've found it."

"This……"

"What's wrong? You don't think it's right? If you don't bring that wizard back, what's the use of us finding Chishi?"

"clear."

Ah Meng doesn't think coaxing is a good way, but he also knows that what Chi Yan said is right, there are countless small earthquakes on the mountain every day, and the smoke from the top of the mountain can be seen across several mountains, and it may erupt at any time.

Because of the disappearance of the high priest, the clansmen fell into an extremely depressed and panicked mood. Regardless of whether Chishi could be found, as long as the wizard came, her existence itself was an encouragement. I believed that her ability could bring confidence and hope to his clansmen.

At this time, he heard Bubba yelling loudly in the camp, beckoning the hunters to go.

Strange... He has known Babu for a long time, and this is the first time he is so excited to see him. He was never so impatient when he came to the mountain to exchange the high-grade holy stones.

He saw Babu coming out of the big house, guessing that their mother should have given the task.

Ah Meng was also very excited.

Guests from other lands have magical weapons that can shoot down the sun. It is said that their priests and wizards are young, and their appearance is also different from ordinary people... A Niu's description made him curious about this sky clan that came from afar.

He called the selected four hunters, followed A Niu and Wu Ya who led the way, and a group of people from the mountain, and set off!
Taking advantage of the fact that everyone's attention was attracted by the traveling team, Chi Yan found an opportunity to secretly glance at the sky.

The sky was blue and cloudless, and the sun had just risen from the distant horizon, and the scorching breath had already enveloped the entire earth.

After only one night of coolness, the heat regained the dominance. There was only one sun. Thinking of the ten suns hanging in the sky a long time ago, Chi Yan was so hot that his back was sweating.

He heard the sound of heavy footsteps approaching, and a burly naked man approached. His hair was profuse but never groomed, his skin was tanned, and he looked like a gorilla at first glance.

It's Borg from the mountain tribe, and Chi Yan's impression of him fits all his stereotypes of the mountain people: ignorance, barbarism, greed...

Everyone in the mountain tribe leaned over. They were a little bit afraid of Borg. Civilized people who wear shoes are more or less afraid of barefoot lunatics.

Chi Yan was not afraid of him, and asked casually, "Aren't you going with them?"

"They don't want me to go. Hey, they think I'll give a bad impression to those savages. What do you want me to say, don't talk to the savages, just rush over and kill all the men, and their women and good things will belong to us. Isn't that bad? What do you think?"

Borg sat down beside Chi Yan, grinning.

"Stay away from the priest!"

Chi Yan waved his hand, signaling the hunters to stay out of the way.

"But they have powerful weapons, and there are quite a few of them," Chi Yan said.

"A Niu likes to brag, I bet their weapons are not that powerful, he can't scare me. But it seems, you are all scared."

Borg turned his head to look at the group of hunters who were on guard against him, speaking provocatively and mockingly.

Everyone's faces were full of anger, and their teeth itched with anger.

Chi Yan said nonchalantly: "If you want to trouble the Sky Clan, you can take your people with you, but just sitting here and talking, you can't show your ability."

That's right!

Everyone agreed loudly in their stomachs, and they were very happy to see Borg speechless.

Talking is not Borg's strong point. He shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said, "Compared to this, my lord priest, I'm more interested in finding the high priest. I don't know if what you said last night counts?"

Chi Yan raised his eyebrows slightly, he was worried that he couldn't find someone to send him, but this guy came to his door on his own initiative?
"Of course what I say counts. As long as you find the high priest, I can give each of you a high-grade holy stone."

"Then what if the high priest dies?"

"Then bring Chishi back, I can give you ten bags of high-grade holy stones." Chi Yan spread his hands and made a ten.

Borg confirmed the shape of the lower red stone, and continued to raise conditions: "Don't worry, I can walk out of this mountain forest with my eyes closed. We will help you search every corner, but if you still can't find it in the end, you also have to give us a bag of holy stones."

Greedy mountain people!

Chi Yan cursed in his stomach, but there was no better way, so he could only nod in agreement.

Borg patted Chi Yan's shoulder hard, stood up, and swaggered away.

Chi Yan was almost slapped to the ground by his slaps, Ada hurried up to support the priest, and cursed at the sheep.

Borg called to the women who were about to enter the mountain to collect.

They heard that Dashan was brewing terrible anger, and it might not be safe here. They planned to collect as much food as possible in the forest before Dashan got angry, so as not to really burn in the future, and the flames would burn everything and leave nothing, which would be terrible.

Borg described the shape of the red stone and told them to pay attention to whether there are similar stones nearby while collecting.

He also led the hunters into the mountains, searching while hunting.

Although Borg is used to going his own way, he is not stupid. In his opinion, the high priest must be dead if he hasn't shown up for so long.

The red stone may be on the high priest, or it may not be. In any case, it is never wrong to focus on the red stone.

……

Tiger Claw, Pine Needle, Gu and Leopard Liver are still in the old camp.

It is said to be a camp, but in fact everything has been removed, leaving only traces of people camping and lighting fires, a small amount of food, and a large pile of dry grass and sheep dung, and some sheep and other wild animal grease.

They are here waiting for Crow and A Niu.

The sky said that if Crow and Aniu came back with a large army, they must immediately light the firewood and use the fire and smoke to convey the message.

If Crow and Ah Niu return with only a few people and the other party shows no hostility, they can be taken to a new camp.

In the blink of an eye, night fell again, and darkness enveloped this unfamiliar prairie. The rustling sound of insects seemed to ring in my ears, and occasionally blurred shadows flashed in the distance. The night vision of four-legged predators is far better than that of two-legged beasts. They don't need a long sleep, and the cool night is a good time for activities.

The four sat around the fire, feeling a little nervous.

"Look!"

Gu pointed to the distance and shouted in a low voice.

The other three also saw the little mung bean-sized fire.

someone is coming!

Tigerpaw immediately lit a torch and walked to the woodpile, ready to signal to his people.

The light of the fire gradually became larger and clearer, and the heartbeats of the four also accelerated.

The pine needle lay on the ground, listening carefully to the vibrations from the ground.He heard the sound of chaotic footsteps, the sound was not loud, the number of people should not be too many, he couldn't help being slightly relieved, and Chaogu and Leopard Gan made an OK gesture.

Tiger Claw still didn't relax his vigilance, staring at the fire.

Not long after, the person who came appeared in the firelight.

Gu is good at learning numbers, and he can count to more than thirty. He roughly counted, and the other party came to a total of about twenty people.

Not small, but definitely not a threat.

The leaders are Wu Ya and A Niu who lead the way.

The two looked at each other in confusion, and the crow asked: "Why are you four? What about Ah Shui? Where are the others?"

Seeing this, Ah Meng suddenly became suspicious, and shouted: "Sheep! It can't be an ambush!"

The crowd raised their torches and looked around, chattering and commotion.

Songzhen and Gu couldn't understand each other's language, but they could roughly guess what they were talking about through their demeanor and tone.

Leopard Gan quickly explained: "It's too far away from the water source, and it's inconvenient to get water. They moved the camp near the water source and left us here to support them."

Hearing this, Babu understood, and stopped, saying: "Okay, stop arguing, there is no ambush! They moved their nest in advance because they were afraid of being attacked by us. Am I right, leopard liver?"

Babu still remembered the wild man's name.

Leopard Gan sneered, and still followed the heaven's instructions: "There is food here, you can eat some if you are hungry, and I will rest here tonight, and I will take you to the new camp after dawn."

"It's okay to be cautious..."

Babu muttered and walked calmly to the fire.The other party will do this, which means that they are also afraid of them, which on the contrary makes him feel at ease.

He was indeed tired after driving for a day, he was not polite to Leopard Liver, he just picked up the barbecue beside the fire and stuffed it into his mouth, maybe it was because he was too hungry, but he found that the meat roasted by the other party was much more flavorful than theirs, so he ate it more happily.

Seeing Babu like this, everyone no longer hesitated, and flocked forward to enjoy the food.
