Chapter 142 Rescue
It was not until Tong Ying left and the house fell silent again that Yazhi's eyes, which had been wide open until they hurt, dared to tremble and shed tears.
The pain in her throat still irritated her nerves from time to time, reminding her how close she was to death.
She looked towards the closed window, her face filled with worry.
Brother Aru...
Tears streamed down her face as she waited anxiously, wondering if the young man could bear the burden of the Beastmaster Clan now.
She brought him great trouble.
She shouldn't have come. She shouldn't have risked bringing those two people to West Mountain just to escape the valley...
It was she who harmed the Beast Tamer Clan and Li Ziru...
"Send some water and food in later." Tong Ying's voice came from outside the door.
"Chief, then, do we need to untie her?" If there is food and drink, then she must be untied, otherwise how can she eat?
Tong Ying hesitated for a moment and deliberately raised his voice, "Let her go! If she wants to die, then let her die! I can still use her corpse to attack the Beastmasters! I also want to see how Li Ziru reacts after seeing her corpse!"
After Tong Ying left, the guards looked puzzled. What did the patriarch mean? Why didn't they understand?
No matter how many doubts you have in your heart, don’t question or ask questions about the patriarch’s words, otherwise, you will not end up well!
Yazhi listened to those words with a gloomy expression. She knew that he said that on purpose for her to hear!
Yes! She can't die!
She had to find a chance to leave! If she really couldn't leave, then she would find a chance to kill Tong Ying!
Only when Tong Ying dies can the Beastmasters be free from invasion and the tribesmen be safe!
As the night deepened, the Xishan tribe gradually calmed down and most people fell asleep.
At this moment, there was movement in the depths of the darkness, and pairs of calm and sharp eyes appeared in the moonlight.
"Young Clan Leader, the Xishan Clan is so big, how do we find it?"
"Go to Xishan's left flank, Qiu Gejie."
Qiugejie is where the chief of the Xishan tribe and the warriors of the tribe live. If they capture someone and take him to the Beast Tamer tribe to start a war the next day, then the best place to detain him must be Qiugejie!
Li Ziru waved his arm and continued to sneak in the dark with ten people and ten beasts.
His trained animal, Yas, was killed by Su Lanzhi in the morning, so this time, he brought Randy's previous trained animal, the leopard Li Lan.
Although the leopard is Landy's tamed animal, Li Ziru is the young clan leader, and it was he who tamed Li Lan together with Landy. Therefore, Li Lan is very obedient to Li Ziru, who is equivalent to her other master.
At this time, Chugjie was quiet and all the houses were plunged into darkness.
Perhaps because of the battle tomorrow, they went to bed early. Only the small room where Yazhi was imprisoned was still lit with a dim light.
Two guards stood outside the door.
Although there were patrols in Qiugejie, it was not difficult for the experts brought by Li Ziru to avoid them.
After arriving at Chug Steps, the few of them dispersed and searched for Yazhi's hiding place.
Li Ziru and Colun groped in the darkness for about half an hour, and finally saw a lighted room. Outside, two guards were chatting idly.
"It's the middle of the night and the door is locked. We don't have to keep staring at it until dawn, right?"
A man, holding a wooden spear, complained wearily to the person next to him, "This tribe leader is really something! She's just a woman, why do we have to watch her so closely?"
"Hey, stop talking!" The other man, though also exhausted, was at least more energetic. "The clan leader said we must keep an eye on this woman! He said she'll be of great use tomorrow!"
"Hmph, what use can a herbalist be? I wonder if our clan leader has taken a fancy to this little girl?"
The man had a wicked smile on his face, and his words were a bit more frivolous. "I think this girl is very pretty, with big, round eyes and smooth skin. Any man would be tempted by her, right?"
When the other person heard this, his face changed and he looked around. Seeing that there was nothing unusual, he scolded him in a bad mood.
"Are you going to die? How dare you gossip about the clan leader? Be careful, you might die without knowing how!"
"What's the big deal?" The man said nonchalantly, rolling his eyes at the other man. "It's so late, who else would come besides the two of us? We're just talking, killing time!"
"You have such a big mouth!" The other person also knew that what he said made sense, but he was the clan leader after all. If someone heard it and reported it, they might not even know how they died!
The man smiled and said nothing more since he knew he was being careful.
"Squeak-"
A very faint sound rang in his ears. The man looked back, but all around him was pitch black, with no movement at all.
"what happened?"
"Did you hear any sound?" He looked alert and walked a little outside.
"Sound?" Seeing this, the other person was startled and followed.
He looked around carefully, but there was nothing but darkness, sparse trees and houses. However, he could hear several loud snoring sounds coming from other houses.
"Did you hear it wrong? Apart from Dazhuang's snoring, there was no other sound?"
The man relaxed a little, and patted the man who was still looking around with the spear in his hand, "Come back, come back. Be careful if someone sees you and tells the tribe leader, you will be in big trouble!"
The man's shoulder felt painful from being slapped. He turned around and glared at him, "Can't you be a little gentler?"
The other person laughed foolishly, looking embarrassed. "Who told you to scare me in the middle of the night?"
The two men turned around and walked back, when suddenly they felt a sharp pain in their necks, and then they lost consciousness and fell to the ground.
At this time, two people in black night clothes appeared in the dark. One of them felt around the waist of the guard on the ground and found a key.
"Found it!" The man's voice was filled with joy and excitement, and he quickly opened the door.
Another man in black entered the house nimbly.
Yazhi in the room had no desire to sleep and did not touch the food that was brought to her.
She kept thinking about how to get out, but the windows were sealed tightly shut. Not only was the door locked, but there were two people standing there, showing no sign of letting up. She had no chance at all!
Just when I was feeling anxious and desperate, I heard the sound of a door opening outside.
She thought Tong Ying had come again, so she immediately smashed a ceramic bowl, picked up the sharp fragments, hid them in her sleeves, and looked at the person who came in vigilantly.
The man had his face covered and was wearing black clothes. It was obvious that he was not Tong Ying at all.
"Ya Zhi!"
A familiar voice sounded, and shock appeared on Yazhi's alert face. She couldn't believe that the person in front of her was the one she had guessed.
She took out the broken pieces of the pottery bowl and stared at the person warily, "Who are you?!"
Seeing that she didn't recognize him, Li Ziru immediately took off his mask. "It's me!"
Although she had her doubts, she still couldn't believe it. After all, that person didn't even know she was at West Mountain Peak, so how could he possibly know she was captured by the West Mountain Tribe? It was even more impossible for him to risk his life alone to come and save her!
But it was not until she saw that familiar face, that face full of worry and anxiety, that the huge stone in her heart finally dropped heavily, splashing into turbulent waves.
"Ah...Young Clan Leader!"
She put down the broken pieces of the bowl and ran towards him, surprised but incredulous. "Why are you here?"
"Stop talking and go!"
Li Ziru took her hand and walked out the door.
Ge Ru was standing at the door and when he saw the two people coming out, a hint of relief flashed in his eyes.
He closed the door, placed the two guards at the door, and looked like they were asleep, then quickly followed Li Ziru.
Two tamed beasts flashed by in the darkness.
After entering the forest, Li Ziru said to Colum, "Send a message and call back the tribe!"
Colum nodded, picked up his bone whistle, and blew it twice, like the sound of a bird.
Upon hearing the whistle, the Beast Tamer tribe members immediately stopped searching and quietly retreated from the darkness without alerting anyone.
Just as everything was going on steadily, in a dim room in the Chug Steps, on a redwood bed, a man in a middle-aged suit suddenly opened his eyes.
