Looking at the rapidly receding figures of Li Jiazhai and his men, someone in Gu Jiazhai's team had red eyes and gnashed his teeth and said, "These beasts are simply not human!"
"We finally got this prey, but this is all that's left."
The man next to him choked up when he saw only a small half of the prey left on the ground.
This small portion of prey consists of wildebeest heads, so as you can imagine, there is even less edible meat.
Gu Ze clenched his fists, hatred rising to the sky.
He wanted to shoot Li Xiong to death with one arrow more than once, but he knew the consequences of doing so.
Not only will they die here, but their relatives who remain in the village will also be retaliated against!
Gu Jianghai glanced at everyone, forced a smile, and comforted them: "Everyone, think positively. You won't return empty-handed, right? At worst, we can continue hunting tomorrow."
"Jiang Hai, it's easy to say, but it took us several days to achieve today's harvest."
"Yeah, besides, even if we are lucky, what if we run into those beasts from Lijiazhai again?"
The atmosphere suddenly became silent.
Everyone's morale hit freezing point.
Some people were even wiping their tears. It is said that men don't shed tears easily, but in fact, they just haven't reached the point of being sad yet.
At this time, a man with a flat nose and thick lips sneered twice, looked at the backs of Lijiazhai and others, and said: "The people in Chenjiazhai watched the dying without helping. Now, they are going to be in trouble too."
Upon hearing this, several people became excited.
"Yes! Those short-sighted guys thought they could use us to buy them some time. Haha, what a fabulous idea."
"They have so many prey, they can't run fast, and it's only a matter of time before they are caught up. When that happens, their fate will be even worse than ours."
"That's right."
The four of them seemed to have found an outlet for their emotions and felt much better.
Gu Ze remained silent, but he felt a little resentful about what Chenjiazhai had done.
However, he also knew that it was a favor for others to help him, and it was understandable that they did not help him.
Gu Jianghai stood up suddenly, looked into the distance, and said, "Let's hurry up and catch up, maybe we can help."
"What?"
Gu Ze and the other four all had expressions as if they had seen a ghost.
"Jiang Hai, do you know what you are talking about?" The man with the flat nose said excitedly, "When the people from Chenjiazhai passed by, they left without even looking at us. Where were they when we needed their help? Now that they are in trouble, we should help them? Are you kidding me?"
Not only him, but everyone else couldn't accept it and started to clamor.
"Dad, they are unwilling to help us, why should we help them?" Gu Ze said dissatisfiedly.
"Well, helping them is helping us."
Gu Jianghai sighed.
"We are outnumbered, so we will definitely suffer if we encounter Lijiazhai. However, Chenjiazhai is different. They have several more people than the other side, and the prey is rich, so they may not be willing to hand it over honestly. If the two sides really fight, we can help Chenjiazhai to drive Li Xiong away and take back our prey."
Everyone's eyes suddenly lit up!
"Well, what if there's no fight?"
Some people have doubts.
"If there is no fighting, we can still stand still and give Chenjiazhai a boost, so that the people of Lijiazhai will be cautious. In this way, the people of Chenjiazhai may be grateful to us. Otherwise, our village has fewer people and will never get rid of the situation of being at a disadvantage."
A few people were moved by what they heard, but they still felt unwilling or uncomfortable.
"Okay, everyone, get up. If you're any later, I'm afraid you won't be able to catch up."
Gu Jianghai urged, picked up his weapon and ran over quickly.
They looked at each other, gritted their teeth, and followed.
…
"Look, they are just ahead."
The people from Lijiazhai hurried and finally saw a few figures in the distance, about five or six hundred meters away.
"Damn, are these people born in the Year of the Rabbit? They run so fast." The man holding the bow and arrow cursed. The wasteland was bumpy and uneven, and if you were not careful while running, you would fall flat on your face.
"Is it useful?"
The companion next to him sneered.
"It's no use running fast unless they drop their prey."
"Let go of their prey, are they willing to do so?"
"Hahaha."
Hearing this, everyone burst into laughter, with greed flashing in their eyes.
"Brother, how many of these five prey do we want?"
Someone asked as he chased forward.
"Is there any need to ask? Of course I want them all!" Li Xiong said with a grin.
"Oh, that's not good. If we let them all starve to death, who will hunt for us in the future?"
"Yes, Brother Li, from the perspective of sustainable development, it is better to leave them half a head."
"What you said makes sense."
Li Xiong thought for a moment and said, "Gu Jianghai is right. We should always leave a way out so that we can meet again in the future. So I'll leave them half of my head."
"Brother Li is such a good man."
"If Chen Guodong knew this, he would be so grateful."
"But what if they don't want to?"
Someone said something and the surroundings fell silent.
Everyone looked at the man who spoke, who couldn't help but take two steps back and said angrily: "Brother Li, last time, weren't they unwilling? This time, it seems that they are probably even more reluctant."
"Unwillingly?"
Li Xiong snorted coldly, "Do they have a choice?"
As he said that, he looked at the two men holding bows and arrows and said, "Listen carefully, when you catch up with them later, shoot them with two arrows first. This will give them a warning so that they don't have to bother me later."
"No problem, big brother."
"Just shoot that guy."
One of them thought of Chen Fan and raised the corner of his mouth.
Brat, who are you trying to scare with a bow that has a pulling force of 100 kilograms
If I don't give you some color to see, you really don't know how high the sky is or how thick the earth is.
After the group finished talking, they quickly approached each other again. In the blink of an eye, there was less than 400 meters between the two teams, and this distance was still rapidly shortening at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Xiao Fan, he, they are catching up!"
Gao Yang took the time to look back and said hurriedly.
The long-distance running with weights made him so tired and sweaty that he could barely speak clearly.
The others are not much better.
Although I was mentally prepared, when this scene actually happened, I was so nervous that my legs were shaking.
"Xiao Fan, do you want to stop?"
Chen Guodong asked.
“Don’t stop.”
Chen Fan said calmly: "Keep running forward, it's better to speed up and let them think we are scared."
Everyone looked at each other and ran forward again.
Chen Fan ran at the end of the team, holding a bow in one hand and dragging his prey in the other.
He glanced back, then looked away, a sneer on his face.
good.
Since you don't want to walk into heaven, let me send you to hell.
