Yi Cong's funeral affairs were handled by Yi Si, and Yanjiao did not interfere. Yi Si chose the place to bury Yi Cong somewhere in the mountain forest, not in Yanjiao's hunting area. The place he chose was not Not many beasts live. [ Get up, there are eight slaves. After the previous master left, these eight slaves were given to the next master, Yi Ce, who was still unable to be independent. Therefore, as long as Yi Ce is not harmed, the eight slaves will be managed by Yi Si. With another child under his command, Yi Si's life is a bit busier, but it is still relatively easy. Strong slaves were sent by Yi Ce to the construction site to participate in the expansion of Yanjiao's trading area. Not only could they work as coolies, but they could also bring back more food to reduce the burden. What's more, Yi Ce also had to drink milk. , Like many children in the tribe, Yi Ce drank animal milk. "He is probably the only child among the descendants of the Yi family who grew up drinking animal milk." Yi Si sighed when he saw Hui. Six people including Yi came back from the construction site. "Why did you come back so early today?" Yi Si asked. Facing Yi Si, Hui Yi and the others were very respectful. Putting aside Yi Si's identity as a member of the Yi family, now they are with him. Their little master's livelihood depends on Yi Si, and it's not okay to have a bad attitude. "The people in Yanjiao seem to be in an emergency, so they have to finish work early today." "Is there an emergency?" Yi Si looked at it. Outside, he lowered his eyelids and didn't know what he was thinking. After a while, he smiled and said, "It should be a good thing. Don't worry, you just need to do your part." At this time, Shao Xuan looked at the hand in Yanhe Fort. Zhu Li turned around and looked at Su Li, who was sitting next to him with a troubled expression. Because of the Wuhe incident, Su Li, the leader of the "Chang Le" organization, acted as a cross-ocean messenger. At that time, When this leader left, he showed an attitude of not sending a second letter even if he was beaten to death. But now, this leader from Changle sent another cross-ocean letter. But, this time, it was different from the last time. The letter came from Wangcheng. "What do you think I'm doing? Read the letter! Come back immediately after reading it." Su Li was furious with Shao Xuan. Since the Wuhe incident was resolved, he really had no intention of doing this again. Unexpectedly, reality slapped him in the face. He owed Ji Fang a favor and had to work as a cross-ocean courier again. The letter was written by Ji Fang, the current king of Wangcheng, who had met Gong Jiaheng back then. Shao Xuan, Gui He and others ignored Su Li's complaints, but were thinking about the content of the letter. Ji Fang hoped to maintain a peaceful relationship with Yanjiao for the time being and not interfere with each other. It is being expanded, and the Royal City is also in chaos. The Desert Yanling side is not so crazy for the time being, but the balance in the Royal City has been broken because of the Yi family's troubles, which makes Ji Fang busy. Therefore, what Ji Fang means is that he hopes Yan. In order to prevent Yan Jiao from causing trouble there for the time being, Ji Fang will ask Shao to buy some of the slaves who were "given". When Xuan Zai replied to the letter, he listed the names of several tribes belonging to the Yanhe River Basin, so that he could buy people when the time came. As for the tribesmen not in the Yanhe River Basin who were captured and used as slaves, Ji Fang would not waste money on buying them. People. As the largest slave trading organization, the price of "giving" high-quality slaves is not cheap. "I have already listed the tribes that have lost people, and I will write it down when I reply to the letter." Guihe who rushed over said, "But" Guihe has other ideas, but there are still outsiders here, no So much to say. The Yanjiao people in the room all looked at Sudachi, who was sitting there impatiently. Being stared at by so many pairs of eyes, Su Li couldn't ignore it even if he wanted to, "What are you doing? You still want to discuss? Okay, I'll leave first. After you've discussed it, someone will notify me. Is there a place to rest? I want to sleep." Changle's No matter where you are, people will never treat you badly, so even if you have to wait, you have to lie down in a comfortable place and wait. He is not afraid that the flame horn will be detrimental to him. ¡°Hurry up!¡± Sudachi turned around and urged him when he was kicked out. With no outsiders left, there were only four people left in the room: Shao Xuan, Gui He, Zheng Luo, and Ao. "Do you believe what the people over there say?" Zheng Luo asked. He didn't believe it anyway. No matter how high-sounding you said it, Zheng Luo had never had a good impression of the people over there. The people from the royal city had hunted them down back then. However, from an overall perspective, what Ji Fang said makes sense. ¡°I don¡¯t know the people over there, so I can¡¯t say noBelieve it or not. "Ao Dao, "However, it was not the current king who ordered the pursuit of Yanjiao back then. Now that the new king has succeeded to the throne, he has no intention of becoming an enemy of Yanjiao, at least for the time being. " "They said they would send back those who were taken there. "Gui He said, "If we wait for them to buy the person from Zhen and then send it back, I don't know how long it will take. Ji Fang only said that he would do this, but he did not say how long it would take to complete it. Most of the people taken away were children who had not yet awakened. " Shao Xuan understands what Guihe means. After all, Yanjiao is so far away from the royal city and no one is keeping an eye on it. There is no pressure on Ji Fang, and the people under his command may also execute it slowly. When the time comes, the children who are sent back will not We don¡¯t know what will happen, and we don¡¯t know how many people will be sent back alive. ¡°When the Yan River Basin Alliance was established, the Leishan Tribe and the Yan Tribe both said that they hoped that Yanjiao would take them there one day, and they would be killed. Bring back the kidnapped children. " After the establishment of the Grand Alliance, in order to improve the strength of each tribe, Yanjiao took them into the mountains and forests for hunting. Now, the knives have been polished. In the more than half a year since Shao Xuan disappeared, every time the people from the Leishan tribe came to Yanjiao , they all go to Guihe to ask when they can go to another continent to look for people. Although only the Leishan tribe came to ask, the Leishan tribe asked on behalf of their tribes, and they may not really want to go there right away. Looking for people over there, their tribes have lost people and want to find people back, but from the perspective of the entire tribe, they do not have the strength to go and look for people. Going there rashly will not be beneficial to the tribe, and they have even made preparations to leave. The purpose of asking Yanjiao again and again is actually to test Yanjiao and understand the plan behind Yanjiao. Speaking of which, although those tribes have joined the big alliance, they also recognize Yanjiao's leader. status, but I still have doubts in my heart, and I don¡¯t fully trust him. ¡°When it comes to people who disappear, Tao is not necessarily the only one who is taken away as a slave. During the time when Shao Xuan disappeared, there was an incident in the trading area. Several tribes led by the Gong tribe attacked the trading area. That's why Ao had led people into the mountains to find Shao Xuan, but then returned. The reason. According to normal people's thinking, Yanjiao is not easy to mess with now, and with the establishment of the Yanhe River Basin Alliance, most people will not take the risk of pulling out the tiger's beard, but the people of the Gong tribe are crazy, and they can even risk their lives to achieve their goals. Totally a bunch of lunatics. For a group of lunatics, common sense cannot be used to judge them. After Shao Xuan came back, he asked Ao about the Gong tribe. Ao only replied, "The Gong tribe is gone." The fire was extinguished by Gui Ze. Those who participated in that war included the Dong tribe's old rival, the Jiang tribe, as well as several other tribes in the Yan River basin that focused on force. However, after that incident, some people disappeared. They were not killed while participating in the war, but disappeared. Even if a witch came over, they could not feel the breath of those people who disappeared. They just felt that those people were still alive, but very far away. Someone who had traveled on a long journey said that they had seen some suspicious figures, and Guihe guessed that they might be people from the "Jie" organization. It¡¯s not just children who have been stolen. Now, someone may have targeted adults. This is something Guihe is also wary of. Children still need time to grow up, but if they are men in their prime, they can be used directly as coolies. This is just Gui He's guess. "My idea is that we go there and pick them up ourselves!" Gui He said in a deep voice, "Just in time, I also want to see what the legendary royal city looks like." Zheng Luo and Ao didn't say anything, but looked at Shao mysterious. According to the rules of many tribes, except for witches, they have the absolute right to speak, unless the elders unite to oppose. But in Yanjiao, Shao Xuan is a special case. His decision alone has a great impact, and can even directly overturn Gui He's decision. After thinking about it, Shao Xuan looked up and said, "That's fine." Since Shao Xuan agreed, Zheng Luo and Ao had no objections. The four of them discussed for a while, and Shao Xuan wrote a reply on the animal skin scroll. When writing the reply, Shao Xuan said, "This new king is very aware of the movements of our Flame Horn." "Indeed, look. People who come to the royal city have been staring at our Yanjiao, and they can even guess what our Yanjiao is thinking." Guihe had already been alert when he saw Ji Fang's letter. Although many things were not confidential, he intuitively felt that Ji Fang had an eye on this. Zheng Luo also decided to call the captains patrolling the trading area later to give some instructions to see if there are any suspicious people nearby. People in the trading area should also be investigated. Team, need to check more carefully. After the discussion was completed, Shao XuanThe people called Su Li over and handed over the written reply, "Take it to Ji Fang and tell him that we will pick up our people in person. I hope that when we arrive, we can already see the people who were stolen." Safe and sound." Shao Xuan emphasized the second half of the sentence, especially the word "steal" and "safe and sound." Su Li was still sleepy and angry at being interrupted, but after hearing Shao Xuan's words, he suddenly became energetic. Hehe, there was a good show. He had to go back and tell the others in Changle to prepare to go to the royal city to watch. After Su Li left, Gui He also ordered, "Notify the tributary tribes that there is action." Since Shao Xuan added the Yan River Basin to the tribes of the Grand Alliance and divided the areas according to the tributaries of the Yan River, notification has become more efficient. There are tribes in each branch area. As long as the news is notified there, it will naturally notify other tribes in the tributary basin to which it belongs in the fastest way. There is no need for the Yanjiao Tribe to send people over one by one to inform them. (To be continued.) 8
