As the annual sacrificial day of the Xunfeng tribe, the Xunfeng tribe attaches great importance to it from top to bottom and has made preparations early.
The most noisy one among them is naturally the corral.
Apart from some simple forms, the main content of the sacrificial day is related to these slaves.
Free to hunt.
This is the biggest program on the festival day.
On this day, all the young ferocious beasts in the tribe can participate, without considering any external factors, and capture freed slaves freely.
As for whether to swallow it directly after catching it, or to drain the mental energy first, it is up to the captor to decide.
You must know that in normal times, the tribe would never allow their behavior of raking in the swamp. Even a direct bloodline like the Xunfeng Tiger would only dare to find one or two humans at a time. If there were more, they would be punished.
But today, there is no such restriction.
"Hurry up and remember to run far away, don't spoil the fun of the young masters!"
Several guards kicked a slave who was walking slowly away with force, urging them out of the tribe and into the vast woods outside.
Since it is hunting, there will naturally be a hunting ground, and the hunting ground of the Xunfeng tribe is the huge Tianjiu Forest in front of them.
Unlike the enclosed hunting grounds of humans that Bai Qi was familiar with, the Xunfeng tribe did not bother to surround them in advance, and even gave the human slaves enough time to escape.
As a well-known wind-attributed tribe, the ferocious beasts of the Xunfeng tribe have absolute confidence in their speed.
If anyone gets nothing during the sacrificial days, they will basically live in endless ridicule for the next year.
"No wonder these people dare to take risks and escape. In such a large forest, if you think of your way out in advance, it is indeed very possible to escape, but..."
Bai Qi quietly glanced at the dark cloud above his head that was always following them, and sighed silently.
The sacrificial day and the hunting day are obviously fishing days deliberately created by the Xunfeng tribe to lure out those human slaves who still dream of escaping.
"Whoever says that ferocious beasts are just mindless idiots from now on will be the one to blame!"
Bai Qi restrained his eyes, disguised himself as the others, and followed Ji Aotian all the way, following the marks he had agreed upon long ago.
Because they have been squeezed for a long time, the human slaves are not moving fast, and the Xunfeng tribe seems to intend to let the slaves run farther, so they have not taken any action.
But some of them are obviously a little faster than others.
"I didn't expect there to be so many people. It seems there are many people like Ji Aotian."
Bai Qi quietly looked around, and soon discovered nearly a hundred people who were on a similar trajectory to his, with a trace of helplessness flashing across his face.
In such a desperate environment, a glimmer of life suddenly appeared. As long as you are not completely numb, it is indeed difficult to resist.
"But it's your luck to meet me."
When Bai Qi saw this, he planned to chase after him, but before he could get far, he was grabbed by a pair of hands.
Has it been discovered?
Bai Qi pretended to be confused, turned around and saw a dirty boy pulling his clothes tightly.
"It's very dangerous over there. Don't go there. I know a safe place."
The young man's voice was low and he whispered in Bai Qi's ear. Then he continued to run to the next person without waiting for Bai Qi's answer.
And there were two teenagers of similar age who behaved like this boy.
"What do these young men know?"
Bai Qi looked thoughtfully at the three teenagers who kept running around but to no avail. However, after seeing Ji Aotian and others walking away, he still did not follow the teenagers and quickly chased after them.
"Wang Xi, what should we do? They don't believe us."
A young man with blond hair and blue eyes had a worried look on his face. He ran to the dirty young man and said, "If they go over there, they will definitely be eaten."
"Those damn guys actually lied to their compatriots."
Another tall young man with a short hair gritted his teeth and looked in the direction of the Xunfeng tribe, his eyes full of hatred.
"Fengxu, calm down."
The young man named Wang Xi grabbed Huo Fengxu and said, "I finally got a chance to escape. No normal person would want to miss it."
"But……"
Huo Fengxu was still a little unwilling, but after seeing the young man's appraising eyes, he could only endure it.
"Let's follow up first to see the situation. If it doesn't work out, we can only take a gamble!"
Wang Xi glanced at the direction Bai Qi and others were heading, looked at each other, and then stalked after them.
…
After leaving Wang Xi, Bai Qi quickened his pace and followed Ji Aotian and others.
Without exception, these people were tricked into looking for a way to escape. Although there was little communication between them, Bai Qi could still see the full desire to survive on the faces of these people.
And as the surrounding environment becomes more and more hidden, this desire to survive becomes stronger and stronger.
Finally, Ji Aotian led a group of people to a cave. Before they could enter, several humans with weapons walked out.
"Don't worry, these are our compatriots. If it weren't for their support, I wouldn't be able to guarantee that I would be able to take you away."
Ji Aotian walked out of the team, took out a bone blade, and said: "Okay, everyone, hurry up now, I will help you break the contract, so that you will no longer be discovered by the ferocious beasts of the Xunfeng tribe."
Hearing Ji Aotian's words, the eyes of those who were following him suddenly shone with light, and they rushed towards Ji Aotian. The people who came out of the cave also took out similar bone blades and started to help.
Ji Aotian's hands and feet were very agile, and he quickly helped more than a dozen people break their contracts. These people also walked into the cave one after another with relieved smiles.
According to Ji Aotian, comfortable clothes and fresh food were prepared inside, so they could have a good rest.
"Let these people throw themselves into a trap with hope, it's a shame these guys can think of it."
Bai Qi frowned, feeling the breath in the cave, and his eyes gradually became cold.
"Theoretically, the human soul can explode with powerful power when experiencing severe emotional changes."
Jerry looked at the cave and said: "From hope to despair, the amount and quality of the spiritual power these humans emit will far exceed normal times. I'm afraid this is the purpose of the Xunfeng tribe."
"Um."
Bai Qi nodded and continued to move forward with the crowd, only to find that the three teenagers just now were also following him.
"Are they still trying to save people?"
Bai Qi raised his eyebrows upon seeing this, somewhat confused as to what the three teenagers were thinking, but at this time he had already arrived in front of Ji Aotian, and it was too late to stop them.
"Go in and rest, you will have a good time soon."
Ji Aotian still had that warm smile on his face, picked up the bone blade and lightly scratched Bai Qi's arm. Bai Qi suddenly felt a strange substance entering his body along the wound, and his blood and mental energy became active at the same time.
"The psychotropic drug Shunxincao can relax your mood in small amounts, but if the concentration is too high, it will amplify your emotions and cause irreparable damage to your spirit."
Shuke instantly analyzed the composition of this substance, and Bai Qi's face became even more ugly. He exerted force on his muscles and squeezed out the substance.
"This is really an attempt to squeeze out the last bit of value from these people."
Bai Qi stepped forward and walked into the cave.
Ji Aotian did not deceive them this time. The cave was indeed filled with clean clothes, delicious food, and even luxuries such as wine.
When Bai Qi entered, people were already singing and dancing.
It's a pity that these people didn't realize that in the shadow of the cave, countless pairs of cold eyes were looking at them, as if they were looking at each piece of delicious food.
Soon, all humans entered the cave, and Ji Aotian led his companions to seal the entrance of the cave.
This behavior did not arouse the suspicion of the human slaves, but made them feel more at ease.
"Everyone, hurry up and eat, hurry up and drink. We can't stay here for long. We are going to another place soon."
Ji Aotian walked to the center of the cave, looked at his fellow humans who were feasting, and said loudly.
"Where else are we going?"
Bai Qi took the initiative to stand up after hearing this and asked.
"Where to go? Of course, to the belly of the noble Xunfeng Tiger!"
Hearing Bai Qi's inquiry, the smile on Ji Aotian's face suddenly turned cold, and the Xunfeng tigers who had been hiding in the cave for a long time also came out one after another.
"Why is it so slow? We have been waiting for a long time."
The black tiger who had been to Bai Qi's corral before gave Ji Aotian a slightly reproachful look, while Ji Aotian smiled apologetically and said: "Master Fengxing, don't be offended. If it weren't for this, these people wouldn't taste that well."
alright."
"Forget it, as long as you can eat it."
Hearing this, Feng Xing waved his paw, turned to look at the hundreds of humans standing there, and showed a ferocious smile.
This is a unique benefit of their Xunfeng Tiger lineage, which other ferocious beasts do not have.
Seeing Feng Xing making moves, the other Xunfeng tigers also started to move. They were not in a hurry and slowly approached the collapsed human slave.
Cats playing with mice and playing with humans are also good entertainment projects for them.
"Some emperors and kings dare to be so arrogant. Don't they know that it is terrifying for humans to be angry?"
A cruel smile appeared on Bai Qi's face, and the wheel of fate turned quietly, a massacre was already brewing.
But at this moment, three teenagers headed by Wang Xi suddenly came out. Each of them grabbed a handful of blue powder and sprinkled it towards the Xunfeng Tiger.
These powders were very light and dispersed with just a flick of the hand, and followed the Xunfeng Tiger's breath and entered directly into their nasal cavities.
After inhaling the powder, several Xunfeng tigers softened and fell asleep directly on the ground.
"Nepeta grass? You are such a cunning human being, how dare you plot against us!"
