Chapter 13 (2/2)
“Do not take action first. As long as they do not go overboard, there’s no need for bloodshed. Living in this mountain range is not easy.” An elder said.
Just like this, peace was restored again.
For a few days, Stone Village’s luck was pretty good, and their hunts were rather successful. They came across several carcasses of fierce beasts that perished after internal conflict in the mountains. There were many strong mysterious beasts that engaged in battles that brought disaster within the mountain wherever they went, causing many wild beasts to suffer.
In the depths of the mountain range, archaic descendants conflicted from time to time. They were fighting with the intent to kill each other, causing irreparable calamities. This was the case, but fortunately, it did not spread to the village.
“Chief, just Dragon Horned Elephants alone accounted for eight of the bodies, and there were also several Snow White Moon Rhinoceroses, as well as other types of huge beasts. If we make them into dried meat, it could feed us for a long time to come.”
Shi Linghu brought back a portion with some of the others. He then gathered some more manpower to bring back more vicious beasts.
“Good, good, good!” The elders were all elated.
Many villagers left together to provide support in the mountains.
“Wow, so many huge beasts, let’s go too. We can certainly gather a lot of true blood!” A group of children clamored and shouted.
After seeing the little guy’s skills improving more and more over these past few years, the children couldn’t sit still any longer. They no longer resisted the medicine baths and obediently received the cauldron’s baptism. Now that they saw that there were large amounts of precious blood, they were naturally quite excited.
“I’ll go as well. Big Peng, Little Green, Purple Cloud, wait for me in the village and behave yourselves.” The little guy Shi Hao also followed.
However, when everyone was just halfway to their destination, they saw Shi Feijao return with a group of villagers while covered in blood. Their hair were all over the place, and they were in miserable states.
“Feijiao what happened?” Shi Linghu asked loudly.
“Brother Linghu, it’s Wolf Village again. They intercepted us and seized all of the remaining prey!” Shi Feijiao grimaced in anger.
“What?! They truly bully others intolerably. We’ve been putting up with them repeatedly, yet they treat our patience as a sign of weakness?” Shi Linghu was furious.
Stone Village’s people could no longer ignore this matter. Again and again, the opposing clan arrogantly took advantage of them; this was not the first time the other clan provoked them.
“Did any of our brothers lose their lives?”
“No, but there are a few with severe injuries. Their inner organs were penetrated by iron arrows, and we do not know if their injuries are fatal.
“What! To commit such fierce actions, if it’s a fight they want, it’s a fight they’ll get!”
The villagers immediately exploded. After repeated humiliations, even a reserved person would become angry.
“That 14 or 15 year-old child was truly vicious. All of those arrows were shot by him, and had it not been for one of their village elders stopping him, he truly would have killed us.” Er Meng’s father said. His entire body was covered in blood.
“He’s just a child whose hair hasn’t even grown yet, how strong can he be? Don’t tell me that you guys are unable to do anything about it?” A crippled villager resentfully spoke in support.
“Naturally we are not scared. However, they have much more people. Their numbers are many times greater than ours.”
“That child is quite formidable. Despite having a rather handsome appearance, he truly has a ruthless heart. Do not be careless. Some of our brothers were covered in three layers of iron armor, yet they were still penetrated by his arrows. In our village, only Shi Linghu and I can do that,” Shi Feijiao added.
“We need to take back what is rightfully ours. We absolutely cannot take this lying down!” Everyone felt as if a flame was ignited within their hearts, as if their five viscera were doused with oil, making them burn with anger.
A formidable group of people rushed into the depths of the mountains. This time, Wolf Village truly went too far and crossed the bottom line.
“Ah, Uncle Fu, you’re hurt too. Everything will be alright, it will get better quickly.” The little guy looked at the bloodied body of Shi Fu who always picked his favorite berries while out on hunts. He clenched the little guy’s tiny fists, and after comforting him a bit, he began to chase after the group that went ahead.
