Chapter 283 Capturing the Enemy Commander

Chu Xiaomu said, "This man is probably the leader of the Claw Clan that attacked Bicheng this time. He should know a lot of the Claw Clan's secrets. Let's take him back to Bicheng and interrogate him. Besides, Zhou Zhongjun was injured by him. If we can take him back and let Zhou Zhongjun deal with him, he will definitely be happy."

Zhou Weide said angrily: "I think there is no need to hand it over to Zhou Zhongjun. He just lets us watch the horses eat grass. It is obvious that he looks down on us. There is no need for us to please him!" He has always been dissatisfied with Zhou Bo's arrangement of the ten of him as a horse herder team. At this time, he was injured and in a bad mood, so he couldn't help but say it out.

Wu Sheng said: "We have to thank Zhou Zhongjun. If we hadn't come out to herd horses, I'm afraid all ten of our heads would have been chopped off by the Claw Tribe."

Zhang Hou said quickly, "Yes, yes, yes. Zhou Zhongjun obviously treated us well and allowed us to herd horses. Even if he didn't consider our face, he should consider the captain's face. After all, one of the captain's ancestors was a brother to the general."

Chu Xiaomu frowned and said, "This claw monster will wake up soon, so don't go too far."

Everyone discussed it, and finally decided to take Li Ji back to Bicheng. While Li Ji was still unconscious, they tied him up with a horse rope. When Zhang Houyu escaped, he also picked up a leather rope that the Claw Clan used to throw flying stones. It seemed to be made of some animal tendons and was very tough, just right for tying up Li Ji's two terrifying claws.

Zhou Weide looked at Li Ji's two long, black, sharp claws, and poked one of them with his spear, but there was only a ding sound, as if it hit a piece of iron or stone, and it couldn't hurt it at all. Everyone was amazed.

Seeing that Li Ji was tied up like a rope, Chu Xiaomu was still a little worried, so he drew out his sword and stabbed Li Ji in the knee and elbow, causing blood to flow out. Su Mishun was so scared that he dared not open his eyes to watch.

Li Ji woke up in pain. Seeing that he was wrapped with layers of horse reins, he was confused and asked in a strange voice, "What's going on? Where is this?"

When he realized that he was tied up by the guys from Bicheng, he got furious again and said, "You guys from Bicheng did it. Don't you want to live?!"

Zhang Hou said with a playful smile: "Don't be angry, my king. We are doing this for your own good."

Li Ji said angrily: "What do you mean by for my own good? That's nonsense! Untie me now!"

Zhang Hou said, "Of course it's for your own good. Your claws are scary, so we have to tie you up to prevent you from hurting yourself. We'll carry you onto the horse later, and you won't fall into the water and get drowned again. Let me tell you, the water in Bicheng is still icy cold at this time of year. If you get drowned again, you'll either drown or freeze to death."

Li Ji said, "Carry me onto the horse? Where are you taking me?"

Zhang Hou smiled and said, "Of course we are sending the king home. You have come to Bicheng with great difficulty. We Bicheng people value friendship the most. We must send you home in a grand manner."

Li Ji realized that he was just teasing him, and spat fiercely, saying, "Do you think you can trap me with just a few leather ropes? You underestimate my Claw Clan too much!" As he spoke, he secretly exerted his strength, intending to break all the ropes on his body. However, when he exerted his strength, not only did his strength disappear instantly, but he could not even gather his spiritual power, and his elbows and knees were extremely painful. He realized that the tendons of his hands and feet had been broken by this group of people, and he could not gather his strength. Only then did he become really frightened.

Chu Xiaomu and his companions were also very afraid that Zhua Ji could really break the rope, and then the nine people here would have a hard time surviving. They were all worried and afraid to make a sound.

Li Ji was silent for a long time, then he asked angrily: "Who the hell are you?! Relying on these wild horses to win is not the behavior of a real man!"

Chu Xiaomu saw that Li Ji was no longer as fierce as before, and knew that he could not break free from the ordinary ropes tied to his body after his limbs were broken. His heart finally settled down. He said, "You are our prisoner now, you have no right to yell at us!"

Li Ji said: "If you hadn't fallen into the water, how could you be my opponent?"

Chu Xiaomu said: "It's enough that we can catch you claw monsters. If you want to blame someone, you can only blame yourself for not being able to swim."

Li Ji couldn't find any reason to refute, so he said, "If you have the courage, if you are a real man, you should let me go and fight me one-on-one, so that people will be convinced."

Chu Xiaomu thought, your hands and feet are disabled now, I am afraid you can't even stand, why should I be afraid of you? But now we are still two or three days away from Bicheng, we can't have any more accidents on the way, and there is no need to show off our courage in front of you, a claw monster. So he said: "Whether he is a real hero or not is not up to you, Li Ji, why should I let you be convinced?"

Li Ji was so angry that he yelled and twisted his body hard, trying to break free from the rope, but how could he do it?

Zhou Weide said angrily: "If you keep yelling like that, I'll poke your mouth into pieces, cut off your tongue and throw it into the water to feed the fish!"

Li Ji was not afraid of his threats and continued to shout. The herdsmen ignored him, tied him to a military horse, and led the herd to continue northward.

Although the Claw Clan's camp had been breached by Yang Luo and his men, there were still many Claw Clan assassins who escaped. They didn't know if they would encounter them again on the way back to the city. If there were another group of a dozen or dozens of them, they would only have six people left to fight, except for the injured Lin Zhen, Zhou Weide, and Zhou Weiyi. They would not be able to defeat the enemy no matter what. Besides, there were no larger rivers like the Shishui River on the way, so it was impossible to accidentally bring the enemy into the water and drown them.

Lin Zhen, Zhou Weide and Zhou Weiyi were hit by Fei Shi and their injuries were not light. Although they received healing powder from the clothing officer before setting out to herd horses, it had been used up in a few months and they needed to rush back to Bicheng for treatment. Moreover, when they were fighting with Li Ji and his disciples, many military horses and wild horses were scratched by them and they might have been poisoned and needed to be treated as soon as possible.

Chu Xiaomu was worried and urged everyone to ride their horses as fast as possible.

The group led a large group of nearly 2,000 horses and marched north day and night. On the way, they encountered groups of tents, which were probably temporary settlements of the herdsmen of Bicheng. There was no smoke and the sheep and horses were very quiet. It was obvious that they were not disturbed by the Claw Tribe. Everyone felt relieved and thought that there would be no more Claw Tribe members in this area.
