Chapter 157 – Lu Cheng has disappeared
The fortress was surrounded by overly tight security, so it was expected that the two could not escape the fortress by half a step.
The two were brought into the chief’s council chamber, which was surrounded by rows of guards.
Zhang Xu looked at the battle outside, can not help but think that the savage race for their escape is more or less some attention, a little bit not see the field to arrange manpower deployment of defense and control, deeply afraid that they escaped again.
The man sitting on the upper seat in the council chamber is no longer Lu Cheng, replaced by the man who stood on the left side of the upper seat before threatening Lu Cheng.
That middle-aged with a fierce face of the savage clan.
He sat on the first seat of the upper seat, face with a majestic self-introduction: “I’m the new chief of the wild man tribe, Tiye.”
Zhang Xu’s heart was a bit odd, does the Wild Man Clan still have positions and generations?
Wait ……
The new chief of the savage tribe?
Then where is Lu Cheng?
Zhang Xu’s face immediately gloomy down, even the voice can not help but also a cold, “Wildman clan chief? Where is your chief? I want to see him.”
The savage clan chief sitting in the first place snorted, casting a disdainful glance at him, and said in a light tone, “He ah …… was killed by me.”
At the end, he felt not enough, specializing in picking stimulating words, said, “The stupid big puppet is not much use to keep …… Oh yes, he was roasted in front of the whole clan, that is, you guys escaped at that moment, this moment is estimated to become barbecue meat, right?”
Zhang Xu and their escape at that time, the savage clan is holding a celebration ceremony, at that time Lu Cheng was roasted meat to eat?
If Zhou Lie was present at this time, he would probably be so anxious that he would jump up to confront him, itching to knock the other party’s wild words back into his dog’s stomach.
On the contrary, they blundered, Zhang Xu did not panic in the slightest, his face full of disbelief, methodically talking with the other party: ”It’s not good to be the new patriarch, right? When a usurped new official takes office, do any of the clansmen underneath obey you? A tyrannical leader killing a chief is a big taboo in the clan, right? Will your clan let you go?”
Hearing this, Tiye’s face instantly became ugly, “Heh! You are quite good at talking, good at talking might as well say more …… Come on people, give him a lesson.”
The wild man standing at Zhang Xu’s back, stepped forward as if to slap him a few times, was stopped by Pei Si’s empty hand.
“Tiye, the bright people do not say dark words, what to do to see Lu Cheng.”
Tiye looked at him out of the corner of his eye and said in a mocking tone, “Just by virtue of you, you are worthy of talking to me?”
Zhang Xu’s heart was extremely uncomfortable when he heard these words, can’t this person speak properly? Do you have to get on a high horse?
His face instantly cooled down, his voice coldly said, “Tiye, can we stop acting? What’s with the personal attacks in a nice human conversation? I admit that we lost face to you Wildlings when we ran away, but didn’t we also let you get it back? Besides, we also gave compensation, didn’t we?”
The guard standing in front of Zhang Xu almost vomited blood when he heard his shameless remarks, and immediately said angrily, “Bullshit! My clan’s face can’t be that you say retrieve to retrieve? Moreover, what compensation …… have you given us? Less nonsense here ……”
“Your clan robbed us of our treasure, but I didn’t take it up with you guys? Consider it as compensation for you guys …… The reasoning of spending money to eliminate disasters is something I know a little bit about. As a result, you guys are rushing to find us trouble, who is shameless present can see it.”
Two people argued according to reason, no one let anyone face to face in front of the crowd.
Tiye’s face was grim, waving his hand for his subordinates to retreat to the side, and then spoke without hesitation, “Are you their leader? The matter of escaping is forgotten, but the matter of losing face of our clan, especially the face of our clan leader, will never end here. Furthermore, the treasure in the mountains is originally belonging to my clan, so what’s the point of compensating for it?”
Zhang Xu couldn’t help but roll his eyes, only feeling that the man sitting in the upper seat was even more shameless than Zhou Lie.
After saying that, Tiye got up and walked to Zhang Xu’s front, saying with a contemptuous voice, “Your face is big enough, to think that this clan chief won’t look for trouble from you.”
Zhang Xu slightly narrowed his eyes, lightly pulled the corner of his mouth, and returned, “Trouble is not necessary, right? We are all family, why should we be angry with two families? Right?”
“Who is family with you?”
“Lu Cheng is our team member and your leader, it’s right to be a family! You savages wouldn’t abandon your family, right?”
Tiye was completely annoyed and said in a somewhat fierce tone, “Who wants to be family with you outsiders? Can you stop acting?”
The corners of Zhang Xu’s mouth rose slightly, pulling out a pleasant smile, his afterglow inadvertently glancing at something hanging from Tiye’s ear, and said in a teasing tone, “Who doesn’t know that you’re the little assistant beside the assistant director? The lines that the director’s team gave you are so poorly written, next time let me write you some fierce and domineering ones that fit your persona better ……”
He was still chattering on and on with Tiye, but Tiye spoke with a speechless face, “I say can you respect me a bit? It’s not easy for me to act, can you give me a little face, the camera is still recording.”
Zhang Xu revealed a big smile, winked towards him, and nodded his head in agreement, “It’s okay.”
At this time, Pei Si took advantage of Tiye’s improper defense and strangled him from behind, his hands grasping the strength so as not to suffocate the strangled person.
Zhang Xu, on the other hand, swooped down on the guard on his right side, pointed the tip of his sharp knife at the guard’s neck, and said to him in a cold voice, “Don’t move.”
Tiye, who was strangled, subconsciously stretched out his hands to break Pei Si’s arm, and with a pale face, he sensed towards the guards who rushed in, “Come on people, give it to me. Not a single one will escape.”
Pei Si added a few more points of force to his hands, and the strangled Tiye was a little out of breath and kept coughing.
“Keep them still.”
Tiye’s strength in breaking his arm weakened, his voice weakly giving in to the other party, “Don’t …… don’t…move.”
“Loosen up a little …… I’ll take you to him.”
Zhang Xu deflected the small knife against the guard’s neck and looked at the other party warily, slowly getting up and retreating to Pei Si’s back, standing back to back with him.
Pei Si took the small knife and put it against Tiye’s neck, slightly loosening the strength in his hand.
Pei Si hijacked Tiye and walked out of the door step after step, following Tiye’s hints to find Lu Cheng.
Zhang Xu’s back was against Pei Si, his eyes tightly staring at the wildlings surrounding him, not daring to relax for a moment.
According to the directions provided by Tiye, he came to the middle of the jungle to the west of the savage clan’s fortress, where a dozen or so savage clans were gathered in a circle, with cheering sounds rising and falling.
To approach, surrounded in the middle of the crowd of four middle-aged savages carrying the whole body bundled into a silkworm pupa Lu Cheng, ready to throw on the fire grill roasted into meat.
After Zhang Xu confirmed that the surrounding savages followed Tiye’s instructions and didn’t make any small movements, he couldn’t help but glance sideways at the place where the fire rack was in the middle of the group of savages.
“Tiye, quickly make them stop.” Zhang Xu’s pupils shrunk slightly, and he shouted out in some panic.
