”Over there,” Luo Yumeng saw where the person was hiding at a glance, with a stab of her sword, a ray of Sword Qi flew out, straight towards a certain direction.
Bang! With a sound, the Sword Qi exploded, and a human figure was flipped over, supporting himself on the ground, he stood up. This was a young man with a bamboo basket on his back, he had been injured in the explosion, but his life was not in danger.
”Don't kill him,” Jie Long suddenly shouted, and Luo Yumeng immediately retracted her sword.
At this time, Jie Long jumped down from the gnus and ran towards the young man: ”Zha Zhu, is that you?”
The youngster who was called Zha Zhu was stunned when she saw Jie Long, and then had a face full of pleasant surprise: ”Jie Long, you're back?”
Hearing the two people call him that, Di Chen finally understood that these two people knew each other. Presumably, Zha Zhu did not see Jie Wei just now, which was why he rashly attacked.
”I'm back.” It seemed like her relationship with Zha Zhu was very good.
Zha Zhu ran over, and said: ”Jie Wei, where have you been all these years? I've been looking for you, but I don't see any clues about you.”
Jie Wei's expression darkened when he thought about the situation he was in in in Witch race. She did not know how to answer Zha Zhu's question.
Zha Zhu sighed, he also knew that Jie Wei had suffered a lot in Witch race.
Zha Zhu looked at Di Chen and Luo Yumeng warily and said, ”Who are these two? Why did you bring them to our Witch race?”
Jie Qian introduced with a smile: ”This is Big Brother Di Chen, for this period of time, it's all thanks to her taking care of me.”
She did not introduce Luo Yumeng, and one could tell that she did not like him.
Zha Zhu said with a face full of gratitude when she heard that Di Chen had taken great care of Jie Wei.
Di Chen thought that Zha Zhu was actually serious. Seems like he really liked Jie Wei, otherwise, he wouldn't mind it so much.
”There's no need to be courteous, Jie Long is also my sister.” Di Chen laughed. He had always seen Jie Wei as his own sister, so of course he couldn't bear for something to happen to her.
Zha Zhu looked at Jie Qian again, and worriedly asked: ”Jie Qian, why did you suddenly come back? Do you know that Yan Hui will not let you go?”
She was silent for a long time before she said: ”I am the daughter of the clan leader. They caused the death of my father, so it won't be that easy for them to obtain the position of clan leader.”
This was the first time Zha Zhu had seen Jie Qian say these words with such determination. He was startled, thinking to herself that Jie Wei had grown quite a bit during this period of time.
”Let's return. Herba Hydrae will definitely be happy.” Although Zha Zhu was worried that Jie Qian would be in danger when he returned, he still didn't want Jie Qian to take the risk outside.
Hearing the name Herba Hydrae, Jie Qian's mood improved a little. Nodding, he followed Zha Zhu in the direction of Witch race, with Di Chen and Luo Yumeng following closely behind.
This was the place where the Witch race lived. The Witch race primarily raised Gu, which could be said to be a poisonous insect, but in reality, it could also be used for medicinal purposes. Spells that could harm people could also cure illnesses, so the Witch race could be said to be the only doctor of the grass.
”Zha Zhu, you're back …”
After seeing Zha Zhu, the people around greeted him warmly. It seemed that Zha Zhu had good connections here.
”Hey, Jie, you're back too?”
Jie Wei was previously the daughter of the Patriarch, but then he suddenly left the Witch race. Everyone did not expect her to suddenly come back, but in fact, many people did not know why Jie Wei suddenly left.
But what was even more surprising was that Zha Zhu actually brought two outsiders with him. The clans of the Eastern Desolation actually hated outsiders, especially when they were not people who followed from the grass, but they did not make things difficult for Di Chen because of Zha Zhu's explanation.
Zha Zhu did not have time to explain, she looked at Di Chen and said: ”Big brother Di Chen, I'll take you to rest first, Jie Qian, you follow me to see Herba Hydrae.”
Jie Qian brought Di Chen and entered a yurt, and said: ”Di Chen, hehe, you rest first, I'll come find you later.”
Di Chen nodded and went to rest with Luo Yumeng in the yurt, while Jie Long and Zha Zhu went to see Herba Hydrae.
”Herba Hydrae, who are you looking for?”
Zha Zhu brought Jie Wei into the biggest yurt, inside there was an old woman with wrinkled skin. She had coiled up her hair, and her hair was white as snow.
Herba Hydrae saw Jie Wei at first glance. His eyes immediately became moist and he walked over quickly: ”Jie Wei, you're finally back. You thought you'd never be able to come back …”
”Tell me quickly how you've been all these years.”
Jie Long talked about his life for the past few years, with special emphasis on Di Chen.
For the past few years, Jie Long did not live very well and had frequently encountered danger. Herba Hydrae heard her tears and waited for Jie Long to talk about Di Chen for a long time, but then revealed a happy smile. Herba Hydrae could tell that Jie Long seemed to like the Di Chen that she spoke of a lot.
”It's good that you're fine,” the Herba Hydrae asked. ”Jie Wei, why did you suddenly come back?”
Back then, Herba Hydrae was aware of the danger to Jie Wei, that's why she specially arranged for Jie Wei to escape.
