The Thunder God Novel - Chapter 36
Chapter 36 Intimidation (2)
XinFeng understood the little girl’s mood very well. A few years ago, they had been living in extreme distress. Grandpa and grandson had all eaten humbly with each other. They didn’t even have enough to eat. This was especially true for XinFeng. He had just reached the stage where he could eat. He ate a large amount of food, and hunger was a common occurrence.
The old man Lei Bao’s heart was also uncomfortable. He gently touched Xinyao’s head and sighed, “I’ve bitterly done you all a favor.”
Lei Xing Yao said, “Grandpa, if the meat is still here, you won’t be afraid.” In her narrow-minded eyes, meat and food were the most important things. Since she was sensible, she had gathered and collected food every year in the cold season. She really valued it very much. Other things were easy to say, but food was definitely the first thing in her mind.
Hu Cangya said, “Feng, you are the main hunter. What should we do with those eagle-led hunters?”
XinFeng said, “Make your comments. Do as most people think.”
Hu Cangya said, “Everyone has two opinions. One is to let the Eagle Leaders exchange their prey for humans, and the other is to kill them all, so that they won’t continue to harass us in the future. We can still occupy their hunting grounds.”
XinFeng said indifferently, “You just have to decide. Perhaps we will leave Tiger Cliff Castle at the end of the cold season.”
Ever since he saw Old Man Lei Bao’s might, Hu Cangya knew that the family wouldn’t stay in Tiger Cliff Castle for long, but he didn’t expect them to leave so soon. He bitterly smiled and said, “Alright, outside is your world. The little Tiger Cliff Castle can’t keep you. I just hope that … I can come back and take a look when I’m free in the future.”
“Don’t worry,” the old man said. “After we leave, we will give Tiger Cliff Castle an explanation. Don’t worry, no one here will dare to provoke us in the future.”
Hu Cangya’s face immediately revealed joy. Of course, he knew how heavy the old man’s words were. He regretted not helping the old man’s family when they were in a difficult situation, so he was embarrassed to ask for more.
Elder Thunder said, “I suggest … that the people of the Eagle Collar kill them. Keeping them will be a disaster.” His nature was instantly revealed.
Hu Cangya nodded seriously and said, “We will consider it carefully. Perhaps it would be better to kill them. However, there are quite a few people who tend to exchange food.”
Old Man Lei Bao said, “It’s up to you. I’m just making my own suggestion. You can ignore it.” Actually, he didn’t care about the lives of those hunters at all. He had a little affection for Tiger Cliff Castle, but it wasn’t very deep.
Ten days later, Du Hongchen brought his disciple, a squad of ten Thousand Wheel Masters, and a large amount of food.
These days, whether it’s Elder Thunder, or Lei Xingfeng, They were all working hard to cultivate and consolidate, especially Lei Xingfeng, He was already on the verge of advancing to Milun Master. However, under his grandfather’s suggestion, he tried his best to control it. He just kept refining the lightning wheel energy in his body, hoping to lay a good foundation. This was also a problem for geniuses. He advanced too quickly, so it was inevitable that his foundation was not strong enough. With Elder Thunder’s guidance, Lei Xingfeng would not make such a low-level mistake.
Lei Xing Yao was busy tidying up the food. She was very happy, So much food, Although she couldn’t eat openly, she wouldn’t be hungry in the cold season this year. However, she soon encountered a grim situation. In the past, the old man had eaten very little food, but after recovering from his injuries, the old man’s appetite soared. In the beginning, it was only one or two pieces of meat. In recent days, Lei Xing Yao discovered that Grandpa’s appetite was beginning to be frightening.
Originally, Lei Xingfeng’s appetite was the biggest in the family. After adding Grandpa, Lei Xing Yao pulled her little finger and counted. When she discovered that the food she had stored wasn’t enough to survive the cold season, her little face immediately collapsed. Grandpa’s appetite was bigger than Lei Xingfeng’s. Even if Lei Xingfeng and Lei Xing Yao put together, they wouldn’t eat as much as Grandpa’s.
Lei Xingfeng saw Lei Xing Yao wrinkle her little face and keep counting with her little fingers. She asked curiously, “Yao Yao, what’s wrong? Does it count?” When Lei Xing Yao was four years old, he had already taught the little girl how to add, subtract, multiply, and divide.
Lei Xing Yao bit her finger and said with a sad expression, “Big brother, there’s not enough food in the cold season … What should we do? Sigh …”
XinFeng couldn’t help but laugh. He gently rubbed her head. XinYao said angrily, “I’m anxious to death. Big brother is laughing!”
Lei Xingfeng smiled and said, “It’s alright, Yaoyao. If there’s not enough food, I’ll go hunting. Mm, Grandpa can go hunting too. The cold season can’t stop us anymore, hehe.” In the past, they were helpless in the cold season because they didn’t have the strength. Now, they weren’t afraid anymore. Just because hunters couldn’t go hunting didn’t mean they couldn’t go.
Lei Xing Yao came to her senses and couldn’t help but laugh, “That’s good. I’m still worried that I won’t be able to eat enough. I’m going to starve again.”
Lei Xingfeng couldn’t help but feel heartache. The little child was already worried about the food at home. He said, “I won’t be hungry anymore. Big brother promises!”
At that moment, Du Hongchen brought people into the small courtyard. He raised his voice and said, “Senior, junior Du Hongchen is here to pay his respects.”
Old Man Lei Bao brought XinFeng and XinYao out of the hut. He said, “What are you doing here?”
Du Hongchen said, “There is also a letter for senior from the Grand Elder.”
Old Man Lei Bao nodded and took a leather scroll. “The hut is narrow. You guys should be in the courtyard.”
Du Hongchen nodded respectfully and said, “Put the things in the courtyard. This group of people all have Lunzang Space. Of course, according to their cultivation, Lunzang Space is different in size. There are all kinds of processed bacon and dried meat, as well as rare rice noodles, all kinds of food seasonings, and a large number of dried vegetables and fruits.”
Seeing the food, Lei Xing Yao’s eyes lit up. “Is this for us?” She said.
XinFeng smiled bitterly. He remembered that in his previous life, the so-called girl wanted to be rich. It was indeed not bad. Some food attracted XinYao, and she didn’t even know that she had been cheated.
Du Hongchen said, “Yes, it’s all yours. By the way, I still have a bag of things for you.” He took out a bag made of rattans and handed it to Lei Xing Yao.
Xinyao asked curiously, “What is it?”
Du Hongchen smiled and said, “It’s the candy brought by the caravan outside. There are also some gadgets.”
Lei Xing Yao had never seen candy before. She said to all kinds of ripe wild fruits, “Candy? What is it?”
XinFeng sighed in his heart, He stepped forward and picked up the rattan bag. He opened one of the bags and saw a very primitive candy. There was a layer of frost on it. It was the size of a finger. There was no package on the candy. He took out one and let Xinyao open her mouth. He put the candy into her small mouth and said, “Eat it. The candy is sweet.”
Xinyao’s mouth twitched and her eyes curved up. This was something she had never tried before. She grabbed the rattan woven bag in her hands with great treasure and said, “Delicious, delicious, thank you, grandpa.” She was very polite, knowing that it was Du Hongchen who gave it to her.
Du Hongchen secretly peeked at the old man. Seeing the gratified smile on the old man’s face, he immediately knew that he had done the right thing. It was better to flatter the old man than to flatter the child. The old man was absolutely grateful. Indeed, the old man spoke much more warmly.
There were not only candy in the rattan bag, there were also quite a few candied fruits, and even rare flower cloth and silk. They were definitely brought by the outer sect caravans. There were no cloth in the mountains. The most common thing in the mountains was fur. Cloth and silk were all brought by the outer sect caravans. The price was definitely expensive, and it would take a lot of fur to exchange for them.
Xinyao put the bag into the hut, took out a bag of candy and hurriedly walked out. She said, “Big brother, I’m going to Xiangxiang’s house.” Always share good things with good friends.
Lei Xingfeng agreed. She knew that the little girl was going to offer her treasures. In the past, it was someone else who gave her something to eat. Finally, there was something good. Of course, she had to take it out immediately.
The old man opened the leather scroll and looked through it. “Qi Xuan invited us to the Great Hongdong?” He said.
Du Hongchen said, “Yes, Great Elder has instructed us to worship senior along the way.”
The old man pondered for a moment and said, “Feng, do you want to go?”
XinFeng said, “If we go, will we return?”
The old man smiled and said, “Of course I won’t come back. It’s more convenient to leave the Great Flood Tunnel directly.”
XinFeng lived in Tiger Cliff Castle and was really annoyed. He really wanted to see what this world was like earlier. He nodded and said, “Alright, then let’s go.”
The old man nodded and said, “My grandson has agreed to go. Well, then let’s go. It’s been a long time since we’ve seen each other. Let’s go and take a look.”
Du Hongchen secretly wiped away his sweat. First Elder was called a child. This was too fucking crazy. At the same time, he heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. First Elder personally told him to invite the old man to the Great Hongdong no matter what. His words seemed to be mixed with a sense of urgency. He also told him that if he successfully invited Senior, then he might enter the inner sect. This was the reason why he was nervous.
XinFeng asked people to find Hu CangYa and arrange for Du HongChen and the others to stay in his house, but his house could not accommodate so many people.
In the past few days, XinFeng’s family had been busy bidding farewell to people familiar with Tiger Cliff Castle. They had also distributed the food they had collected to their best friends and those who had helped them in the past. They had received quite a few gifts.
Du Hongchen also promised that in the future, the Hundred Clans Village would arrange for some experts to guard the Tiger Cliff Fort. As for the Eagle Collar, they would arrange for people to move away from the Eagle Collar.
After everything was settled, XinFeng’s family left Tiger Cliff Castle with Du HongChen and the others.
Lei Xingfeng walked out of the basket in Stone Castle. He looked up at the top of the cliff and thought to himself, “I wonder if … I’ll come back again in the future.”
