Gu Heju is still unconscious, but the situation is better than it looked at first. At least his whole body no longer twitches violently, and his breathing is much calmer. Especially Gu, who was bitten by a snake, has slightly recovered from his pale and slightly flushed cheeks.
Instead of the usual black.
The condition of the patient seemed to be even worse. After his face swelled up, his entire head seemed to have grown in size. It looked very scary.
Xu Chen pressed the carotid arteries on their necks and felt that their heartbeats were much more steady than before. He opened his eyelids and took a closer look. Although there were some tiny blood spots in the eyes, the pupils were still normal.
"It looks fine!" Xu Chen explained with a slight sigh of relief.
Although the two of them are still not out of danger, their situation has improved slightly and they should not die for the time being.
Feng and other hunters collectively breathed a sigh of relief, and their turbulent mood calmed down a lot.
As the news spread, the crying outside the door soon became much quieter.
When we returned to the gate again, we could clearly hear the shouts of yo hoo yo hoo coming from the direction of the valley entrance.
The voice was high-pitched and unfamiliar.
Seeing the nervous and fearful expressions of men, women, old and young, Xu Chen didn't feel anything at all.
When he designed this large mansion, he considered resisting invasion by foreign enemies.
Except for the entrance and exit gates, there is no window or door in the entire courtyard. Moreover, the walls made of stone and mud bricks are crisscrossed and stressed by each other. There is no single wall anywhere at all. Therefore, except for the gates, the walls are as follows.
At present, the equipment of primitive people cannot break through anywhere.
At present, more than a dozen sets of bows and arrows are guarding the door, and a few dozen people coming here are not enough to fill the gap.
This courtyard built at such a huge cost is now the strongest fortress and city.
Even if the entire Wu tribe comes, as long as there is no fire attack, he is confident that he can hold on for a long time.
The only fear is that there will be a shortage of water and food. Now is the time of drought, and there is basically no food storage. We all rely on collecting plant buds and hunting and fishing.
There is currently no way to replenish food, but it seems that there was some oversight in the original design. A well should have been dug in advance.
This matter must be put on the agenda, and it must be started after dealing with the exodus of the Uzbek people.
"Our house is very strong and safe. As long as we guard the door, the Uzbek people can't get in!"
Xu Chen pointed to the open space outside the gate.
After arranging a group of men, Xu Chen turned around and comforted Muba and a group of women. According to the previous instructions, the women, children, old and young all went back to their respective rooms, while the strong women went to the center of the yard to look for tools and prepare to help.
Crowded at the gate.
A group of men quickly put on their rattan armor and prepared their bows and arrows, because they heard that the other party might also be equipped with bows and arrows. Xu Chen also asked people to find a lot of straw mats that had recently been woven to serve as door curtains and mattresses, and put them on the door to block them.
I also found many rattan baskets just in case.
A large group of people gathered at the gate and made a lot of noise. The monkeys and wolves tied on both sides were also jumping up and down anxiously, screaming and roaring.
The scene was extremely chaotic.
"Yo ho~ Yo ho ho ho~~"
The shouts coming from the direction of the valley mouth turned out to be getting closer, and slowly I saw a large group of people coming along the river beach.
There were indeed a lot of people, and it looked like a large area of darkness.
After slowly walking closer, Xu Chen roughly estimated that there were indeed about fifty people.
And as a group of hunters said, "These people look like they are here with bad intentions. They are not here to exchange things at all. They are painted with oil paint, wearing furs and holding spears and sticks, and some of them actually hold bow-like things."
Xu Chen was a little confused as to whether it was really the Uzbek people.
Among the four nearby tribes, the Wu tribe is indeed the largest, and they are the only ones who can gather such a large group of men.
However, there is no enmity between the Ba tribe and the Wu tribe. Last time, I saved the lives of their warriors. It stands to reason that the Wu tribe will not suddenly attack the Ba tribe, because they know that the Ba tribe’s bows and arrows are powerful, and even fifty people can attack them.
If we win, we will probably suffer heavy casualties.
In addition, with this impregnable large house, other than giving away people's heads, he really couldn't figure out why the Uzbek people would do this.
You must know that a group of hired workers such as the Wu and Hu people have just returned home less than a month ago. They know the situation of the Ba people very well, and they will definitely spread the publicity after returning.
Could it be that the Uzbek people tried to seize the property just because they heard about the big house they built?
Xu Chen kept analyzing the situation, but he still couldn't figure out the reason for the Uzbek people's menacing attack. Therefore, he could only wait for these people to arrive before conducting detailed negotiations and analysis.
Although Feng and other men had bows and arrows in hand, they were still very nervous.
Seeing the other party's dark group of people getting closer and closer, they became more and more commotion and restless.
The Ba people are too weak and are not of the same size as the Ba people. When talking about the Wu people in the past, they always looked indignant, but that was just for lip service. When they were face to face, they instantly became intimidated.
This is the crushing mentality formed by the strong strength of the Uzbek people for a long time. When being abused has become a habit, they will accept it without any thought of bullying them back.
But Xu Chen has no such mentality at all.
Because in his opinion, this group of guys who came with great momentum can still be friends if they talk well today. If they have any unrealistic ideas, they will definitely end up sending a bunch of heads.
Although the human race is currently weak and not suitable for killing each other, he must first ensure that he can survive before considering the interests of the entire human race.
If the Ba people are gone, why do we still need this world?
In addition, he was also very angry. Originally, Gu Heju's life and death were uncertain because he was poisoned by snake venom, but these guys suddenly came to cause trouble at this juncture.
It almost gave him the urge to rush out and crush these idiots one by one.
"Yo ho ho ho..."
As the Uzbek people got closer and closer, the sounds of howling ghosts and wolves became louder and louder. However, when a group of Uzbek people finally saw clearly the huge and majestic artificial building in front of them, the high and low sounds suddenly became chaotic.
Some people screamed and then stopped suddenly, just like an old duck who suddenly had his throat pinched.
"Whaaaaaaah!"
Still hundreds of meters away, a group of people were crying and howling on the empty river beach in front of the compound.
Some people retreated in fear, some hid in the grass, some lay on the ground, and some were stunned and at a loss. The menacing group of Uzbek people instantly turned into a mob.
The body and wall are separated, the spirit and soul are separated from the body, dumbfounded, and the soul is out of control...
No one could remain calm in front of this ancient and marvelous building. The Uzbek people were in complete chaos. Some even kowtowed to the big house and let out frightened and shrill cries from their mouths.
Damn it, there's something wrong with this script.
Xu Chen was momentarily confused.
This doesn't look like a robber coming to rob a house.
Feng and the other men were even more confused.
From the moment they discovered this group of Uzbek people, they felt a sense of imminent disaster that would destroy their families and annihilate their clans. They rushed back to report the news before they even had time to collect the fishing nets and catch.
But I never expected that this group of people would behave like this after they arrived.
This is completely different from the virtues of the Uzbek people in the past.
"Open the door and go out and take a look!"
Xu Chen felt that Feng and his group were probably wrong, so he stood up and ordered the door to be opened.
"Chen Ga..."
Before a group of men could say anything, the mother rushed forward and grabbed his arm, with a look of fear and anxiety on her face.
"Don't worry, mother, they don't look like bad guys!"
Xu Chen hugged his mother and comforted her gently, then turned around and asked someone to open the door.
