Chapter 218: Chiya Tribe
Chapter 218: Chiya Tribe
Li Mulan didn't ask anything, but checked his physical condition first, "Sister, the medicine box."
Qingyu hurried forward, opened the medicine box, and skillfully took out a few bottles of pills and some tools for treating external injuries.
"master······"
Lei Tian wanted to speak but was stopped by Li Mulan, "Heal your wound first, and we'll talk later."
Fortunately, although the injuries were serious, they were only external. Li Mulan simply bandaged him before asking, "What happened? Where is Uncle Zhang?"
"Uncle Zhang... I don't know." Lei Tian's expression was very ugly.
"I don't know?" Li Mulan frowned and glanced at Gu Changqing, "What's going on?"
Gu Changqing was somewhat puzzled by her gaze. Was he blaming himself for not protecting his men? These people were stronger than theirs, so why did they need their protection?
Before he could react, Chu Chenfeng also glanced at him, just a faint glance...
Gu Changqing exploded, "This...you...why are you two looking at me? This...I can't be perfect at everything. Miss Li, your men are much more skilled than ours, so you don't need me at all."
Li Mulan did not respond to Gu Changqing's words, but stared at Lei Tian with burning eyes.
"Today we followed a group of people to Yao Village to help. There was a landslide over there, and it was completely covered. We knew there was no chance of anyone being alive, but... we still went to see if we could dig them out. Who knew there was someone hiding over there, with very special clothes, so they must be from a foreign tribe. It looked like they were looking for something, and they ran into our people."
Lei Tian was out of breath after speaking a few words, and after two breaths, he continued, "They were very strong, and we were quickly defeated. Many brothers died. We were originally protecting Uncle Zhang, but... I was beaten into the river and fainted, so I was lucky enough to escape."
Gu Changqing looked grim, "What about our people? Could it be that they are also..."
"My brothers, Uncle Zhang and I are the last ones to hold on. Lord Gu's group was completely wiped out."
At this point, Gu Changqing's heart sank to the bottom. There was no treatment plan for this patient yet, and so many people had just experienced a natural disaster and had to be taken care of. Now a group of unknown forces appeared. This was really... hehe.
“But he is from the Wu clan.”
Lei Tian shook his head. “It doesn’t look like it. We did find traces of the Wu Clan at first. They were all wearing black clothes, cloaks, and masks. As for the people this time, their clothes are hard for me to tell. But one thing is that they all have tattoos on their faces. They are... very strange patterns, like... like..."
"Ghost vine." Chu Chenfeng's low and cold voice sounded.
"Yes, the devil vine. It is just as the Regent said, they all have the devil vine tattooed on their faces."
Seeing that Lei Tian had nothing else to say, "Young Marquis Gu, please arrange for my people to rest and find a doctor to help take care of them."
"Okay, I'll arrange it immediately, don't worry, Miss Li." Although he is a little overwhelmed now, fortunately Chu Chenfeng is here, and he has a backbone.
Before Lei Tian was carried away, he hurriedly said to Li Mulan, "Master, Uncle Zhang brought Shilixiang with him. If he is still alive... he will definitely find a way to contact you."
"Okay, I understand. Leave the rest to me. Just focus on recovering from your injuries."
"And..." Lei Tian seemed a little anxious, "My brothers are still near Yao Village."
Li Mulan patted his shoulder and said, "Got it."
After everyone left, the tent fell into an unprecedented silence.
It was Li Mulan who spoke first, asking Chu Chenfeng, "Does the prince know those people?"
Before Chu Chenfeng could speak, Huo Yuanruo at the side spoke first, "Uncle Junior, I know that the one with the ghost vine tattoo on his face is the member of the Chiya tribe who disappeared for a hundred years."
Chu Chenfeng glanced at Huo Yuanruo and said nothing.
"Chiya people?" Li Mulan's brows were furrowed so much that they could pinch a mosquito to death. "Who are they?" She had never heard of them.
"I also heard from Master that a hundred years ago there was a Chiya tribe. They believed in the Chiya God and were a very mysterious tribe. All Chiya people, regardless of gender or age, had ghost vines tattooed on their faces."
"What is the Chiya God? Didn't he disappear for a hundred years? Why did he appear again?"
Huo Yuanruo blinked his big eyes and said, "I don't know anything else. You can ask him." He raised his chin towards Chu Chenfeng, seeming a little reluctant.
Chu Chenfeng's expression didn't change at all. "The Chiya people are a mysterious tribe that has existed for hundreds of years. The Chiya God they believe in is said to be a mythical beast with a human body and a beast face. They have been hiding from the world for hundreds of years, so only a few people know of their existence. The last time we heard about them a hundred years ago was when we heard that they slaughtered a village. It was said that they were doing some kind of sacrifice and sacrificed all the people to the Chiya God. Since then, there has been no news of them."
A mysterious tribe? Human sacrifice? This is getting weirder and weirder.
Forget it, it’s unclear, and Li Mulan doesn’t want to know any of this anymore. She wants to go look for someone.
"Young Marquis Gu, you should know where Yao Village is. Find someone to lead the way for me."
Gu Changqing first glanced at Chu Chenfeng before asking, "Miss Li is going?"
"Yes, now, immediately, right away." Li Mulan glanced at Huo Yuanruo and said, "Yuanyuan, go get ready and follow me out later."
"Okay." He had to prepare some good things. He had helped Second Uncle carry medical books and medicinal materials before. The things Second Uncle gave him must be good things, hehe.
Chu Chenfeng also knew that Li Mulan would not listen to him, "I will go with you."
"No need, you're still needed here. Don't worry, I won't fight them head-on. If I can't beat them, I will run away." Li Mulan took the small medicine box from Qingyu's hand, pulled out a few bottles from it, opened each one and smelled it, and then stuffed them into the small cloth bag she carried with her.
"Also, Your Majesty, please help take care of Liu Feng and Tianyu."
Ye Tianyu did not object. At this moment, he couldn't help much, so he didn't want to cause trouble.
Liu Feng was not happy, "Master Junior, I will go with you to find Uncle Zhang."
Li Mulan didn't even raise her head. "Don't join in the fun. You just heard it. The other party is very powerful. If you are not careful, someone will die."
"I..." Liu Feng pulled out the long sword from his waist, "I have a weapon."
After Li Mulan prepared everything she wanted, she reluctantly gave him a look and said, "Well, the sword is good."
Chu Chenfeng was worried, "I'll have someone follow you."
"Too many people isn't necessarily a good thing. Don't worry, I'm just going to test the waters this time."
Then he looked at Qingyu, and the two of them were ready to go out. Chu Chenfeng took two quick steps to block in front, "Xingwu, there is only one of him, if you want to go you must take him with you."
