Under the order of Wang Bodang, Xiao Li and the soldiers rushed towards the residence of the Que and Chonghu tribes.

More than fifty soldiers who were transferred from the God Cult, plus more than a dozen people who were stationed near the two tribes, launched a carpet-style search near the two tribes' residence.

Time passed by minute by minute, and it was already afternoon. As the sun slowly moved to the west, but the lost child had not been found, everyone suddenly felt a little nervous. After all, this is the future of the Que clan. The Que clan's tribe had decreased dramatically due to hunger and disease, and newborns often died. Fortunately, life improved after the migration, and the children were healthy, but this happened.

After searching for most of the day, the Great Elder and Que Feng still had no clue. The children's parents usually let the children play. After all, this is not the forest where they lived before, and there are not so many dangerous beasts. In addition, each Que tribe has his own tasks, so there is little time to keep track of the children's whereabouts.

"Oh, what should I do?" Que Feng sighed slightly, because there was no clue, and I don't know how long it would take to search like this.

"You said you can find the children? If this continues, even if the children get lost, they will starve to death."

Que Feng once again asked the Great Elder.

I don’t know how many times this was. In the face of Que Feng’s inquiry, Que Shu shook his head helplessly, but he still firmly believed that he would find the child.

Gradually, the sun was slowly falling in the sky to the west, and everyone felt hopeless. The tribe members were dejected, and the women looking for children were crying silently.

For a moment, the tribe members seemed to give up and sat on the ground, looking at the sun that was about to set.

The next moment, I only heard "Chief Que Peak and Elder Que Tree."

Quefeng, the Great Elder, and others looked at the place where the sounds were made. What caught my eye was a general, next to him was Xiao Li who was often patrolling and protecting the tribe, and there were many soldiers behind him, but what made everyone open their eyes was that all their lost children were found.

The soldiers hugged the unconscious children and gently handed them to their respective parents. The parents who saw their children come back showed bright smiles at this moment, and they all thanked the soldiers with gratitude.

When Que Feng saw this scene, he asked Xiao Li with confusion, "Where did you find the children?"

Xiao Li and the soldier looked at each other and smiled slightly, "That's right. These children were found in the soil pits on the outside of the village. The terrain was uneven and we rarely went to patrol wherever we were. There were many large and small soil pits. We found the children in these soil pits."

"Well, no one inspected it, how did you find it?"

Que Feng just asked, and the general said to Que Feng: "Thanks to Xiao Li's timely report to General Wang."

Hearing the general's praise, Xiao Li was a little disgusted, rubbed his nose with his hand, and said with a slightly red face: "That's thanks to General Wang who sent someone to come."

Seeing that the children were all safe, Que Shu thought of holding a banquet and inviting the soldiers to have dinner with the Chonghu tribe. It was also considered as dispersing all the unhappiness before, so he immediately called the soldiers to have a meal together.

At the warm invitation of the Great Elder, the soldiers also happily went there. At the evening, a bonfire banquet, more than a dozen people sat around the bonfire, drinking goat's milk, eating mutton, and chatting about some interesting things. It was so pleasant.

But Que Jin was not so happy. The elders who had agreed to return to the ancestral land with him, when they saw that the children were found safely, they all turned against each other and did not want to return to the ancestral land where they were hungry and frozen.

...

On the second day, before the sun rose, Que Jin was running around busy.

Last night, Que Jin lay on the bed for almost a night of sleep. When he thought about the hope of returning to the ancestral land, he felt so sad that he could not sleep. So he thought about how to convince his clansmen to return to the ancestral land with him.

"Dongdongdongdongdong..." There was a knock on the door.

The clan opened the door and wiped his sleepy eyes casually with his hands. Seeing Que Jin, he was a little surprised and quickly bowed, "Elder Que Jin, I wonder what you are asking me for early in the morning?"

Que Jin didn't say nonsense and directly expressed his thoughts on returning to the ancestral land, "That's right. I think we should return to the ancestral land. On the one hand, we have mastered planting technology and some textile construction technology, so we don't have to learn from those Han people anymore."

"ah?

Why do you have to return to your ancestral land? Isn’t it good to be here?

And there is no need to worry about invasion of wild animals here.”

The man felt confused when he heard Qu Jin's words and suddenly said.

Que Jin then persuaded: "Think about it, our clan has been moved here for half a year, and there are still troubles during this period. Not only do we often conflict with the Chonghu clan, but the children have also been missing recently. I feel that this is a warning from our ancestors to us, and we must return to our ancestral land as soon as possible, otherwise we abandon our ancestral land like this will be punished by our ancestors."

The man gradually became a little panicked when he heard Que Jin's series of words. When Que Jin saw that there was a show, he immediately said: "Guess what dream I had last night. I dreamed that my ancestors were very unhappy about us moving away from the ancestral land. He asked me to let the clan return quickly, otherwise we would be punished by extermination!"

"Ah! Elder Que Jin, are you saying true?"

The man stared at Que Jin with his eyes wide, looking very scared, and his hands casually pulled Que Jin's clothes and said, "I'll ask Elder Que Jin to save us."

Seeing the man's panicked expression, Que Jin smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, I will not leave the tribe alone."

Hearing Que Jin's promise, the man hurried back to the house to pack up his things, and started a series of ethnic persuasion with Que Jin...

After Qu Jin's painstaking persuasion for most of the time, most of the tribesmen decided to return to their ancestral land, and even the tribesmen began to pack their luggage and prepared to embark on the journey back to their ancestral land.

The elder suddenly received news that most of the tribesmen were going to return to their ancestral land. He thought it was not good, so he hurriedly took a few tribesmen who were unwilling to return to stop them.

Seeing Que Jin and other tribes walking out with their luggage one by one, the Great Elder shouted loudly from behind: "Why do you leave here? Why do you return to the hungry ancestral land? Don't obey Que Jin's bewitchment."

Hearing the scolding of the Great Elder, the tribesmen who wanted to leave turned around and watched one by one, Qu Jin quickly walked to the Great Elder, shouting with a gloomy face: "Qi Shu, I think you have been filled with a soul-stirring soup by those Han people, and even their own ancestral land has been completely abandoned."

Seeing Que Jin's gloomy face, Que Shu put his hand on Que Jin's shoulder and explained in detail: "Actually, I have not given up on my ancestral land. We can wait until the tribe is strong before going to the ancestral land to take a look, and go to the ancestral land for sacrifice every year."

Hearing the Great Elder's persuasion, Que Jin threw Que Shu's hand aside impatiently and roared in a low voice: "You have been teaching me to return to the ancestral land before, but now you are blocking me. Isn't this you still bewitched by those Han people?"

Seeing Que Jin's expression, the elder lowered his head with guilt and explained: "My concept is wrong. We have harvested a lot of food in the past six months, and the tribesmen have lived happily here, but our tribe has not yet become strong and cannot go back for the time being."

The Great Elder's series of explanations hit Que Jin's heart again and again. Que Jin shook his head suddenly, dispelled distracting thoughts, and said to the Great Elder fiercely: "No one can stop us today, and you can't do it either, Que Shu, don't think you are the Great Elder, I'm afraid of you."
