The Emperor is Above

Chapter 105 I also know the principle of helping relatives instead of helping others

"cry--"

The cries of several falcons pierced the sky.

The huge wings flapped, and soon Xu Zhengjia and several Eagle Guards disappeared into the blue sky and flew towards Xiema Pavilion.

Watching the Eagle Guards go away, Qing Yi arranged his armor and loaded the Wolf Fang Rune Arrow while commanding: "The Eagle Guards can only pass the message to those people. Whether they can come to Lonely Hill depends on our personal escort. Let's go!"

All the villagers in Qingyi and Guqiu attached great importance to welcoming the team of more than 300 Chinese people. After all, they were all relatives. Gongsun Wu, the Dongmen brothers, Chai Yong, and Daniu almost came out in full force.

Even the little fox and the civet cat were forcibly taken into the car by Qing Yi. The little fox didn't care and looked around with curiosity, while the civet cat had a fat face full of unhappiness.

The temperature in April was rising day by day. With several large-scale rainfalls, the water level of the ponds and swamps around the solitary hillock rose significantly. Many scattered small pools of water were connected into larger ponds. Fortunately, most of the roads we came from were still passable.

"Ah--" The little fox on the first car suddenly cried out to warn.

"Oh my God! There's a huge alligator hiding in the grass in the puddle on the right front!" Da Niu was so scared that he shuddered and quickly shouted to the people behind him.

"Meow-"

The tabby cat stared fiercely at the more than two-meter-long crocodile in the water not far away. If it dared to approach the shore, it would kill it.

"Roar--"

The crocodile in the swamp floated close to the water surface, staring at the convoy not far away with its ferocious eyes, but ultimately did not dare to approach the shore. It let out a low growl and dived silently into the water.

With this early warning, Qing Yi discovered that the alligators that originally only lived by the river began to spread to the ponds in the surrounding wasteland as the water level rose. There was a possibility that alligators could exist in swamps of all sizes, and the entire team once again became more vigilant.

Unlike the last time at the beginning of spring, this time the team had no choice but to stop and go, and had to make way for large groups of animals from time to time.

“Uh—hmm—”

Following a deep roar of a giant beast, hundreds of green rhinos rumbled over, even eating and defecating at the same time, leaving large and small footprints and countless feces on the ground.

"Pfft..." Qing Yi couldn't help spitting, shaking his head helplessly, "It really is the scent of nutrients. No wonder the weeds in the wasteland around the swamp are so lush."

Everyone couldn't help but burst into laughter. The original tense atmosphere was swept away and they quickened their pace to the Xiema Pavilion.

Since Jiming Lake is said to have a herd of millions of animals, we encountered not only large and small groups of green rhinos along the way, but also groups of giant-hoofed wild horses, giant antelopes, northern wilderness buffaloes, giant-horned deer, moose, and six-tusked boars.

Especially the water buffaloes of the Northern Wilderness, which often moved in groups of thousands or tens of thousands, roaring in and out, and even the hunting tigers, leopards, bears, and wolves did not dare to approach.

A seventh-rank black tiger monster chased after a group of giant-hoofed wild horses, whizzing past the team closely without even an interest in taking a glance, yet it gave the entire team a fright.

"Don't worry, everyone. This black tiger needs to hunt other beasts to satisfy its physical needs. It is not interested in us at all."

Dongmen Hu has been following Chunyu's caravan for more than ten years and has seen many similar situations. He said calmly, "What's more, the chief of the Gongsun family is a seventh-rank lower-armor soldier, and there is also a seventh-rank exotic beast, the civet cat."

Seeing that everyone quickly calmed down after being comforted by Dongmen Hu, Qing Yi fell into deep thought. He found that the black tiger seemed to be running past his team very calmly, but at first its movements paused slightly, and its eyes revealed a hint of surprise and fear.

The intelligence of exotic beasts is not inferior to that of humans, especially high-level exotic beasts, whose intelligence is extraordinary. Could it be that there is something in our team that scares the black tiger?

Before Qing Yi could figure out the problem, he heard a hawk cry in the air, and then saw the ferocious bird flying quickly over a marsh in front of it, its claws tightly grasping a ten-foot-long crocodile. As the hawk flew over the sky nearby, the eagle guard on its back shouted, "Sergeant Guqiu Yi, Ma Zhiyuan, the head of Xiema Pavilion, is persuading those people to settle down in Xiema Pavilion.

The battalion commander couldn't stop them by force, so he could only tell the people that you will be here soon, and now dozens of people have agreed to stay at the Xiema Pavilion."

"These bastards, they have already come to Xiema Pavilion, but they actually agreed to stay here!" Chai Yong's face was immediately filled with anger, "Do they think we can still lie to them?"

"Uncle Chai, don't be angry!"

Qing Yi stopped Chai Yong's anger. He looked very calm and did not complain to those people. "As you can see along the way, there are at least tens of thousands of beasts we have seen.

Especially those ferocious beasts and the green rhinoceros tribe. Even people like us can't help but tremble with fear when we encounter them. How can we force ordinary people not to be afraid?

The fact that they had the courage to leave their homes and walk all the way to the resting place as a pavilion astonished me."

Although he could understand why those people were hesitant, Qing Yi was still very unhappy when he heard that someone was poaching his own people. Fortunately, after walking for another hour, he finally saw the migrating team. Xu Zhengjia and several other Flying Eagle Guards stood aside helplessly.

When they were still several dozen feet away from the team, they heard a cheerful male voice, loudly persuading the countrymen: "My fellow villagers, you have seen today that the millions of beasts in Jiming Lake are in danger. There will be a group of blue rhinoceros beasts coming to drink water near our resting pavilion.

The Solitary Hill burial mound is only fifteen miles away from the Jiming Lake, and there are herds of giant beasts there. You people may lose your lives at any time and anywhere. It would be harmful to you to persuade you to settle down in Solitary Hill.

Why don't you just stay at Xiema Pavilion? We have a small population and abundant land here. You can choose your own location and we will confirm the land for you. There is also the convenience of hunting. Isn't it much better than going to Guqiu and suffering?"

It has to be said that this man had good eloquence. He appealed to people's emotions and lured them with benefits. In addition, there were already dozens of people who were interested, and after his repeated persuasion, some of them actually decided to stay at Xiema Pavilion.

Qing Yi couldn't hold back any longer, and walked forward and sneered loudly, "Captain Ma's words are so fiery, as if he had really been to my Guqiu Fengtu. You said that people can die at any time and anywhere in Guqiu Fengtu, but I have hundreds of people in Guqiu Fengtu, and we haven't lost a single person since the migration.

You have repeatedly mentioned the advantages of Xiema Pavilion, but why is it that Xiema Pavilion has only about a thousand people after more than 20 years of establishment? Why didn't you explain the reason to everyone? "

Chai Yong sneered at the side and said, "Hehe, what else do I need to explain? The barbarians of Jiming Lake always plunder the resting place in the fall. Many people die at their hands every year, so naturally the population cannot increase."

A Chinese man in the migration team also nodded and said, "Yes, I often heard that the barbarians in the Great Lake attacked the pavilions near the Great Lake. Wasn't Xiema Pavilion harassed by the barbarians for a long time at the beginning of this year?"

With Chai Yong and the big man singing the same tune, the people who had originally intended to stay at Xiema Pavilion began to waver again.

Ma Zhiyuan immediately got angry and said, "You are such an unreasonable man. I persuaded you to stay in Xiema Pavilion to harm you. Do they help you by letting you go to Guqiu?"

"Don't be angry, my noble man!"

The big man said as a matter of course, "Although I am just an ordinary citizen and have not learned the six rituals, seven teachings, and eight policies, I also know the principle of helping relatives rather than helping others.

Chai Yong is my cousin, so he will not lie to me. Since he said that there is no danger in Guqiu, no nobles or ministers will bully me, and he can give me enough food, I am willing to settle down in Guqiu."

"you--"

Ma Zhiyuan was speechless after being confronted by this big man.
