The Emperor is Above

Chapter 134 The fully armed wild folks

"Meow-"

The fat, furry cat's paw pulled at Qing Yi's collar, and its sharp claws easily pierced several small holes.

Aunt Bo squatted down and stroked the fat cat with concern: "Hua Ni, you were so badly injured in the fight with the black cat. Why did you drag the young master out again after you just came back from outside?
Be good and listen, take a good rest at home for two days, and grandma will take you to eat delicious food. You see you have lost weight in the past two days."

Seeing the fat on the civet cat's round body shaking like waves when gently patted by the old lady, Qing Yi secretly complained in his heart: There is a kind of hunger that makes grandma think you are very hungry, and there is also a kind of thinness that makes grandma think you are too thin!
"Meow-"

The fat cat just responded to Auntie Bo gently. In the past, the fat cat would drool when it heard about delicious food, but this time it was indifferent and still wanted Qingyi to follow it.

Seeing the civet cat's state, Qing Yi thought for a moment and advised: "Don't worry, Auntie Bo. Hua Ni knows her injuries best. She just came back from outside and wants to take me out again. There must be something very important that I need to see with my own eyes."

Gongsun Wu also nodded repeatedly while thinking: "Yes, the strange ornament that Hua Ni brought back is the logo on the black robe of the Cat Ghost God priest. This matter must be related to the Cat Ghost God. It is a good thing to figure it out as soon as possible."

The tabby cat usually looks lazy. It would never sit if it could lie down, and would never stand if it could squat. Given the lazy cat's temperament, it would never act so anxiously unless the situation was very important.

As for the threat posed by the cat ghost to Guqiu, it was not easy for Auntie Bo to continue dissuading them. She wiped her tears and kept reminding the civet cat to be careful.

Qing Yi tried to comfort Aunt Bo with kind words for a long time, and then gave instructions to Tun Shigu, Daniu and Chai Yong. He entrusted the two young eagles to the Dongmen brothers to help take care of them, and set off with Gongsun Wu, the little fox and the civet cat.

As the best fighter in Guqiu, Gongsun Wu has not slackened his training since he was promoted to the seventh-rank lower-armor soldier in early March. Recently, he has had a faint hope of being promoted to the sixth-rank. Experiencing more battles will help him improve his realm.

As for the little fox, it is now becoming more and more proficient in illusion techniques. Taking it along along the way can not only avoid many dangers but also better conceal one's whereabouts.

"Hua Ni, where are we going?"

The tabby cat stopped just after walking out of the gate of Solitary Hill. Qing Yi had to urge the fat cat to lead the way. After all, it was the only one who knew the direction.

"Meow-"

Unexpectedly, the civet cat leaped up with its round body, lightly jumped onto Qing Yi's left shoulder, squatted down, pointed one of its front paws towards the northeast, and called softly.

Qing Yi couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly. This lazy cat started to slack off again after just walking a few steps.

However, the civet cat had saved him many times and could be regarded as a hero with great hard work. It had also been chasing the black cat for several days before returning. Qing Yi had to sigh and accept this fact. He put the howling little fox on his right shoulder and headed towards the northeast of the hill according to the civet cat's instructions.

"Meow-"

"Ah wu——"

The civet cat gave instructions from time to time to adjust the direction of advance, and the little fox performed illusions from time to time to deceive the giant beasts around.

The two little fat balls squatted comfortably on the left and right shoulders, but it was hard for Qing Yi who had to rely on his two legs to walk.

Along the way, we passed through large and small ponds, swamps and marshes covered with dense weeds and herds of wild animals. It was very difficult to move forward. Our bodies were splashed with mud, and our legs and feet were covered with silt.

Even Gongsun Wu, who usually pays great attention to his image, didn't care about anything else at this time. He kept shaking his head and smiling bitterly at the mud on his body. After walking seventy or eighty miles in one breath, the sun gradually set and the sky became dark. Just as Qing Yi was about to find a campsite with Gongsun Wu, the civet cat and the little fox actually sounded the alarm at the same time.

The two little creatures' furry claws were pointing in the same direction.

It was a large and small swamp covered with reeds, sedge and other two-meter-high grasses, with a radius of seven or eight miles. It seemed that the enemy discovered by the civet cat must be hiding in it.

Zeshu means a swampy area with large grass growing on it. The grass and water are interspersed throughout the land. Ten miles to the east is the vast main water area of ​​Jiming Lake.

Qing Yi and Gongsun Wu looked at each other, then tiptoed into the reed marsh, trying their best to avoid stepping on the reed stalks and making noise. The little fox's magic power of illusion concealed their figures.

We walked for a quarter of an hour and the sky became darker. After walking at least two miles, we saw a bonfire lit up deep in the reed marsh ahead. We could faintly hear the cheerful laughter and chatter of a group of wild men.

Qing Yi stopped and listened attentively to the sounds made by this group of savages. His expression gradually became solemn. It would take at least hundreds of people to make such a noise.

When he and Gongsun Wu approached cautiously, they found that the strength of this group of wild people was indeed very strong. The leader of the wild people was a tall and strong intermediate totem warrior.

He sat on a dead log covered with an exquisite animal hide mat. In front of him was a bonfire roasting a giant antelope, emitting a rich aroma.

On both sides of the campfire in front of him, more than a dozen junior totem warriors were squatting, each holding a large piece of barbecue and eating happily.

There were also piles of bonfires burning in the open space around them, and as many as five hundred wild warriors were barbecuing and eating with great interest.

Gongsun Wu carefully observed the scene, and then whispered in Qing Yi's ear: "My Lord, these five hundred people are from the same wild people settlement, and every wild people warrior is qualified to be a hunter."

To judge whether a group of wild bandits is powerful, whether they come from a common wild settlement or a combination of several small wild settlements is often an important basis for judgment.

The more than 500 wild people in front of him all came from the same settlement and had the same totem tattoos, which showed that they had the same totem beliefs.

Such a team of wild folk is not only united and powerful, but also shows that there is a strong wild folk settlement behind them.

However, Qing Yi was not concerned about these. He frowned slightly at this moment, and his attention was on the armor and weapons of these wild warriors.

Due to the blockade and suppression by the State of Xing for a hundred years, it was difficult for the people in Daze to obtain weapons on a large scale. They usually used homemade bone weapons, or simply used bone sticks, wooden sticks, and wooden forks as weapons.

Although the armor on these more than 500 wild warriors in front of them was of various types and not of uniform style, after all, everyone had a set of armor to protect themselves.

Their weapons were no longer the crudely made ones of the past. Almost everyone was equipped with well-made swords, spears, halberds, axes, hooks and forks. Although they looked a little shabby, it did not affect their killing ability. There were even twenty people equipped with bows and arrows, all of which were the standard Xing State jujube wood bows.

Qing Yi clenched his fists and muttered in a voice that only he could hear: "The cat ghost god really wants to use the people of Oze to cause trouble in the capital.

Just the hundreds of barbarian warriors in front of us are fully armed. I am afraid that the number of armors and weapons that have fallen into the hands of the barbarians in Daze is at least tens of thousands. "
