Taming beasts starts with understanding bird language

Time passed quickly, and seven days passed in the blink of an eye.

During this period of time, with Ouyang Wan'er and Ma Zheng by her side, Gu Chan was in a good mood along the way.

But the only thing that worried her was that the food in the convoy was getting less and less, and more and more people were dying of hunger along the way.

She wanted to lend a helping hand to these people, but they didn't even have enough food to eat, so they could only take care of themselves in the end.

By the eighth day, the caravan had finally run out of food.

At night, everyone rested together on the roadside, and everyone was dizzy with hunger.

The thing that Gu Chan was most worried about finally happened.

Ma Zheng went to the front and came back, suddenly saying to Gu Chan, "Boss, it seems that the people in front of them have caught some mysterious beast, and they are making a fire to roast it! Should we go over and see if we can have a bite of it as well?"

"What? They are so hungry, how can they catch a mysterious beast?" Gu Chan was surprised.

The next second, she seemed to suddenly understand something and quickly stood up and rushed forward.

When she ran over to take a look, she saw that, as expected, a group of people had already built a bonfire and started a fire, while another group of people were hiding in the bushes nearby, doing something obscene and no one knew what they were doing.

Gu Chan ran over quickly and squeezed through the crowd to get in.

She went in and took a look, and was instantly stunned by the scene before her.

I saw a woman who had fainted from hunger being surrounded by this group of people. They were busy trying to strip her clothes off, and then they took a thick wooden stick and were about to tie her up.

Gu Chan pushed everyone away, protected the woman behind her, glared at everyone and shouted, "Are you crazy with hunger? You are planning to eat people just to eat food, right?"

"Manager Gu, we haven't eaten in several days. She's dying anyway, so just leave her alone."

"Yes, Manager Gu, we don't want to starve to death on the way!"

"Get out of the way. We are so hungry that we can't stand it anymore."

The common people were shouting and yelling at the same time, all of them looked like crazy.

Obviously, long-term hunger has made them completely lose their minds. In this situation, their only thought is to fill their stomachs.

Gu Chan gnashed her teeth and cursed, "Get out, all of you, this is not something a human should do, you all just hold on, if you really can't do anything else, just peel off the tree bark and eat it."

"We've been here all the way, and the bark has been eaten clean. There's no bark left to eat!"

"I don't care. It's not okay to do such a heartless thing." Gu Chan cursed.

The common people looked at each other, and no one dared to step forward.

Because the incident of Gu Chan beating Wang Tianxiao in Wuheng County had already spread, and everyone knew that she was quite strong.

In this situation, even if they all rushed forward, they would definitely not be a match for Gu Chan and could only choose to retreat.

Gu Chan shocked everyone. She then carried the unconscious woman on her back and quickly ran to the road ahead. She called Ma Zheng to bring a kettle and feed her some water.

After the woman regained consciousness, she threw herself into Gu Chan’s arms and cried, “Manager Gu, thank you for saving my life! My parents and grandfather starved to death and were dragged away by wild wolves. I was the only one left, and they bullied me and wanted to eat me!”

"Don't worry, I'm here, no one can hurt you." Gu Chan said with a grim face.

After that, she handed the girl to Ma Zheng's care, stood up, looked forward and shouted, "I warn everyone in front of you, if I find out that you are going to eat people again, I will kill you first, and then let the Rat Fairy grind you to ashes."

No one in the front dared to answer. They all sat there in silence, lowering their heads in shame.

Gu Chan still wanted to curse.

At this moment, the sound of rumbling horse hooves suddenly came from behind.

Everyone was so scared that they quickly stood up and looked behind them. They saw that there was a long army coming towards them. Everyone was instantly panicked and screamed.

"Run! The enemy is catching up."

"It's all over. I'm already too hungry to walk, and now the enemy is coming. This is killing me!"

"Oh my god! We can't reach Zhongyuan City."

Listening to everyone's screams, Gu Chan felt something was wrong.

If the enemy was really chasing us, the rain of arrows would have already flown over us before the enemy troops arrived. But now the troops in the rear were just rushing forward without releasing any arrows.

Thinking of this, Gu Chan immediately waved her hands and shouted, "Don't worry, it may not be the enemy."

"Yes! They are not the enemy, but our own Tiger Army! I can see the big flag with the word tiger on it." Ma Zheng raised his eyes and took a closer look, then cheered excitedly.

Everyone's hearts, which had been hanging in their chests, finally calmed down at this moment.

As the army got closer, everyone finally confirmed that the pursuing army was not the enemy, but the Tiger Army led by Xue Lihua!

Gu Chan quickly stepped forward and stopped Xue Lihua who was walking in front, "Sister, why are you here?"

"General Long is dead, and we had no choice but to retreat to Zhongyuan City." Xue Lihua explained with a painful expression while riding on a warhorse.

When everyone heard her words, tears welled up in their eyes.

In the hearts of all the ordinary people on the border, Long Zhen is like a stabilizing force. As long as he is alive, no one will feel so sad. But once he dies, it will prove that the border has completely fallen. If everyone wants to return to the border to live in the future, it will probably be impossible.

How can this not make everyone feel uncomfortable?

Gu Chan clenched her fists and asked, "Sister, how did General Long die?"

"Huang Yue is a spy sent by the enemy. He has been hiding in our Tiger Army. When we were fighting the enemy fiercely, he secretly poisoned the general." Xue Lihua explained while suppressing her anger.

"Don't let this scumbag fall into my hands, otherwise I will kill him one day." Gu Chan shouted coldly.

Previously in the Beast Team camp, she had promised Big Black Snake that she would kill the scumbag Huang Yue, but she never had the chance. Now she really regretted not finding an opportunity to kill him directly, otherwise Long Zhen would not have been poisoned by him.

Stamping her foot on the ground in anger, Gu Chan asked again, "Sister, have you executed that bastard Huang Yue?"

"The enemy made a deal with us. If we retreat twenty miles, we will have to release him. So..." Xue Lihua said with a grim face, very unwillingly.

"Okay, okay, Huang Yue, you damn scumbag, just wait for me. I, Gu Chan, swear here today that one day I will pull out your tendons, skin you alive, and cut you into pieces." Gu Chan raised his right hand, gritted his teeth and swore to the sky.

After traveling through time for so long, she has never been as angry as she is now.

There is no doubt that at this moment, she had already made up her mind to kill that bastard Huang Yue!
