Rebirth: Wild Survival

"You can call me Su Luo." Seeing Alisha looking at him all the time, Su Luo simply stretched out his hand to express his kindness.

"I'm very glad to meet you, Su Luo. Welcome back you and your companions." Some novelty stretched out his hand and shook hands with Su Luo. He looked at Su Luo from head to toe without concealing it.Looking at Su Luo's slightly rough skin due to his long trek in the desert, and feeling the thick calluses formed by long-term labor in the other's hand when he held his hands together, Alisha's gloomy mood suddenly improved a lot. Although the other party was also outstanding in appearance, but Far from being as refined as myself, "You can call me Alisha." Because of his improved mood, Alisha's tone of voice was much gentler when he introduced himself.

Of course, Su Luo didn't know what Alisha was thinking. Seeing the smile on the other party's face, he also held the corner of his mouth.

"After a long journey, you must be exhausted. Let's take a rest first." Retracting his hand, Alisha said to the cats, "You are right, we really need to rest." Su Luo had no objection to Alisha's arrangement, Hearing this, he couldn't help smiling and replied.

"Very well, then we won't bother you." With a gesture of please go ahead, Alyssa left with a group of Cretes.

Seeing the Cretes leaving one after another, the smile on Su Luo's mouth disappeared. The return journey will not be smooth sailing. This was expected by Su Luo, but the lukewarm attitude of the Cretes deepened his feelings. The worries in the bottom of my heart, the different growth environment, and the different life experiences make the cat people completely different from any Crete in the sea of ​​trees. They are running around for survival all the year round. The cat people have an inexplicable fierce temperament, and these This difference is probably the biggest reason why they were rejected by the Cretans.

Fortunately, there are not many cat people who are secretly worried like Su Luo. Most of them are as happy as Yamang when they come to the new environment. Speaking of it, this place is much better than the scorching desert.They don't have to worry about food and water sources, and they can also have a comfortable sleeping environment. The situation in front of them is better than their imagination.With the departure of Alisha and the others, Su Luo was assigned to be a coolie with an excited face. With work in hand, he didn't have the heart to think about other things. The worries in Su Luo's heart were temporarily thrown aside by him.

After simply tidying up the tree hole, the cats sat together in twos and threes, the exhaustion from the long journey finally welled up. Not long after, there were bursts of breathing sounds of different frequencies in the empty tree hole.

————————————————————————

Kneeling and sitting at the long table at the head of the high priest, Chris was far less relaxed than the cat people.Handing over his greeting gift with both hands, Chris said humbly: "I haven't seen you for many years, and you are still so healthy."

The high priest smiled and said nothing, looked down at the grass woven fabric with elegant patterns in his hand, and praised: "The hemp and rattan blankets of the Yanhu tribe are always so exquisite."

"I'm so happy that you like it." Chris said with a smile, his tone was very pleasant: "My family also brought a lot of such fabrics this time, I believe the Cretans in the valley will like it as much as you do. their.

"Thank you for your generosity, but you don't have to. You rescued the warriors of the Griffin tribe in the desert, and escorted back our tribe who were separated from other tribes. You have already won the friendship of our tribe." Put the blanket in your hand. Stepping aside, the high priest looked at the young leader of the Yanhu tribe and said sincerely: "You are much earlier than in previous years. Ryan said that you have encountered an extraordinary predicament."

"As you said, if I hadn't encountered a major event related to the survival of the ethnic group, I would never have gone into the depths of the sea of ​​trees to disturb you." Chris said with a worried expression on his face.

"Your eyes are full of worry, my child, tell me about your plight. It will be my honor if I can help you share it." The high priest said with a gentle face.

"I'm really grateful for you saying that." Chris said a little excitedly: "Some kind of unknown disease is robbing the lives of the females of our clan. Once they are infected with that evil breath, they will soon weaken. full of black plaques, and finally died in pain!"

"It's really a terrible disease." The high priest frowned slightly upon hearing this.

"Yes, it spreads very quickly. Even if I separate the healthy clan members separately, they will suddenly get sick for no reason," Chris said with a distressed face: "Since the disease started to spread, I almost fell ill." I tried my best to find a cure for this disease, but all failed. I was forced to think of you. Your healing skills are famous throughout the continent. There should be a way to save my poor clansmen. .”

My healing technique is only suitable for healing trauma. If trauma is caused by other reasons, I'm afraid I can't do anything. "The high priest murmured after hearing the words.

"As long as you can go and see those poor people of my clan, I will never force you to cure them. After all, it is a disease that no one has ever seen. If you can't do anything, then the decline of my clan must be caused by beasts. God's will." Seeing the hesitation of the high priest, Chris said anxiously.

Infected by the sadness in Chris's eyes, the high priest finally stopped hesitating, nodded and said: "Okay, I promise you, although I can't guarantee that they will be cured."

"No matter what the result is, the Yanhu family will always thank you for your decision today." Seeing that the high priest finally agreed to his request, Chris An breathed a sigh of relief and said sincerely.

"Then let's go now, your people need to be treated as soon as possible." Standing up, the high priest said decisively.

Chris was naturally happy to do so and was busy leading the way.

In order to avoid causing panic, the high priest led Chris to the outskirts of the Sunset Valley along the path to avoid the crowds of people. The warriors of the clan guarded nearby with vigilant faces. After seeing clearly that the person next to Chris was the high priest, they dropped their vigilant expressions and became respectful.Consciously give way to a path for them to pass by.

Stretching out his hand and tearing off the tightly covered curtain, a stale breath escaped from the tent. Chris looked worriedly at the female of the clan lying weakly in the tent, and looked nervously at the high priest from time to time. The priest's expression was always calm, and he bent down into the tent, presumably to check the condition of these females nearby.

Seeing this, Chris hurriedly followed and entered the inner room. The curtain fell again behind him, and the light source in the tent disappeared. The dim halo keeps the entire tent from being completely and obviously completely pitch black.

Chris closed his eyes uncomfortably at first, and when his eyes got used to the darkness of the inner room, he saw that the high priest had approached a female who was getting weaker and weaker, and the bright light from the cane frightened the female of the Flame Fox tribe. The black plaques were displayed in front of the two of them. The high priest leaned over to take a closer look at those plaques. He could feel that the black plaques were slowly spreading outward at a speed that could not be detected by the naked eye. He reached out and touched them lightly. The high priest frowned deeply on the frightening plaques that continued to spread.

Chris, who was on the side, had been watching the expression of the high priest closely, and couldn't help becoming nervous when he saw this, and couldn't help but say: "Can you see the cause of this strange disease?"

The high priest didn't answer him, only to see his eyes slightly closed, and he lightly touched the dark brown spar on the top of his palm with his hand. After a lengthy chant, the brown spar on the top of the cane glowed slowly. It was bright, and finally a large group of light suddenly burst out, covering the gray tent in an instant.

Chris looked at the unglamorous light with a face of shock. The holy power in the light made him unable to bear the urge to worship. When he recovered, he couldn't help but cautiously took a few steps back.

Then look at the black spots that almost covered the whole body of the female, and they began to shrink slowly, as if being driven away by the strong light, they shrank together. Unfortunately, the holy halo didn't last long, only a few tens of breaths. The effort suddenly dissipated.

The high priest barely supported his swaying body with his cane upright. Chris, who was at the side, saw this and hurried forward to support him. "Help me out." The high priest said weakly.The two came outside the tent, the fresh air blowing against them made the high priest feel better.

"Can you cure them?" Chris whispered excitedly. Just now, with the halo, the large black spots disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, which he witnessed with his own eyes.

"It's not that easy. The holy light can only temporarily drive them to one place. Soon, this evil breath will cover the whole body of the females as before. It will continue to erode their fragile bodies." After fading, the high priest slowly shook his head and said, his expression changed from his usual calm and gentle expression, adding a little bit of gloom.

how so?Chris lost his way. Immediately, he seemed to have caught something, and suddenly looked at the high priest and asked, "Did you just say that it was some kind of evil force that caused our situation, not a strange disease?"

"Indeed, it's not a strange disease. These females are possessed by some kind of evil aura." He looked at Chris.The high priest nodded and confirmed: "This evil force should be attached to the skin and hair at the beginning, constantly eroding the mental power of the female, and when the female's mental power is exhausted, it will spontaneously find the next host and send it to the next host." Expanding, they have no cure."

"What can I do?" Chris slumped to the ground and murmured. "Don't be afraid, my child," the high priest patted Chris on the shoulder, soothingly; "Evil gods or evil forces are the common enemy of all ethnic groups bathed in the glory of beast gods, and the Cretan clan will provide you with Help, I will bring all these females who have been infiltrated by evil forces back to the sea of ​​trees, and the divine light of the Holy Spirit will purify them!

Looking at the high priest with a firm face, the young Yanhu Clan young master only showed gratitude.

The High Priest took advantage of the night to leave, watching the High Priest's leaving back, the excitement on Chris's face slowly faded.After standing quietly for a while, Chris returned to the camp where the ethnic group was stationed. His face was blurred by the night, and no one could see his expression clearly at this time.

When he came to his own tent, Chris took a deep breath and leaned in. There was no one in the room. The only light source came from the animal bone lamp in the middle of the tent. A big gray bird was standing on the lampshade with great interest. Looking at the burning animal fat in the animal bone lamp, his scarlet eyes looked very strange in the dark inner room.

Sensing someone coming in, Gray Bird looked up, and when he saw Chris, he opened his sharp beak slightly and made a very humane smile.

Terrified by Gray Bird's smile, Chris walked forward calmly, bowed down respectfully and saluted, no longer the intimacy before others, when alone with Gray Bird, Chris looked respectful and fearful .

"Most respected Your Majesty, you once promised me that if I fulfill your entrustment, you will restore the females of my clan to their original state. Now, the high priest of the Cretan clan has agreed that the females of my clan will enter the sea of ​​trees , then you can enter the deepest part of the sea of ​​trees together." With a little apprehension, Chris thought about it.

After Chris's words fell, the room fell into a strange silence. The gray bird, which was still alive just now, seemed to be held by some magic spell, standing there stiffly, with its sharp beak opening and closing, with a low and ethereal voice. The voice echoed in the house, it was definitely not a rough bird call, but a clear human voice, "Well done, my child, according to the agreement, when your people lead me into the depths of the sea of ​​trees, I will I will fulfill my promise, now, I need to rest for a while, the damned holy light just made me weaker." Almost gritting his teeth, he said the last sentence, the voice dissipated like smoke, accompanied by the disappearance of the voice , the cold and oppressive atmosphere in the room also disappeared.

Chris slowly stood up, and saw that the originally stiff gray bird had already recovered and flew down to Chris's shoulder, rubbing his cheek affectionately.

Exhaling the turbid breath in his chest, Chris could clearly feel that his dry outer robe was already wet with a thin layer of sweat. He subconsciously touched the hair on the top of Gray Bird's head, and his expression became extremely gloomy stand up.
