Chronicles of Primordial Wars Chapter 476: Road
Since knowing the consequences of Shao Xuan training there, the patrol Warriors's daily interest is to wait there after sweeping the snow. Alas,
The branch road is still there, and they directly withdraw the temporary rest point, and then make an escape point.
Patrol Member originally wanted to create an open-air rest place in the same way as before, but it would also suffer from freezing and cold wind.
One day, Shao Xuan suddenly remembered a way to teach them to use a simple abrasive tool and water to make a large ice block. The water in the river, already, was frozen thick. Melt it with snow by yourself, then pour it into the grinder, freeze it for a while, and with few breaths, it will soon form an ice brick, which is very efficient.
This kind of ice brick was quickly accepted by the tribe, and even some non-rotate Warriors came out to help.
From mountain to mountain, there are igloos and igloos in the shape of "i". The foundation of the igloo is also made of ice base, which is high enough to extend beyond the snow layer, and then build a house on it.
When the patrolling Warriors is patrolling, the snow-clearing gap will go to the igloo to rest, drink some hot water to warm up, and you can see the situation from farther away. People in the tribe who have been locked up at home also run for two laps because of freshness and curiosity.
Shao Xuan is also worried that these people will suffer from snow blindness because of facing the snow for a long time, reminded them, but until now, no one has appeared snow blindness.
"Look, Elder is starting to push snow again!" said the man lying on the igloo window looking outside.
"Where? Let me see!"
Three small windows were snatched and looked over.
The igloos are built near the first road introduced by Shao Xuan. Shao Xuan will go along a new road every day.
When you look at it from the height, you can see that on the white snow-covered ground, a person wrapped in flames is walking slowly. And in front of him. It looks like a white giant bug is moving down the mountain.
Despite the shock at first sight, Warriors already, now on patrol, treats this as a daily entertainment. The tribe worshipped the strong, not to mention how cold they must endure when walking in the snow in the stormy snow, and they said that they had tried to push snow. Unfortunately, the inconspicuous snow piled on the together is extremely solid and heavy. They can't push it after only one pile, and they feel that they have a lot of strength on weekdays.
Duo Kang came over from the outside, patted the snow on the body, and asked, "How is the sentry under the mountain doing?"
"Tao Zheng they took over today and continue to do it, saying that it must be done higher, so that you can see the distance from standing on it. Do not go out and freeze." A Warrior said.
"It's a good thing for Blake to make a sentry, but don't be lazy, I'm going to check!" Duo Kang scolded.
"Yes, don't be lazy!"
"Yes." Duo Kang should make a sound, and swipe the person beside the window to look outside, "I see how the Shao Xuan pushes snow."
The Warrior standing next to one's lips isn't it just to grab the window? He also deliberately tried to talk.
Under the mountain. Across the river, high sentinels were made. large piece's ice bricks were constantly sent there.
After making a few sentry points, Warriors is idle, and I try to connect these sentry points again, and make a passage with ice bricks, so that I do n’t have to blow snow when walking. It looks like a city wall has been built.
Looking at the passage that is comparable to the city wall, the patrolling Warriors is even more vigorous. Such a snowy day is not without fun at all, it is another experience for those who are idle.
ferocious beasts in mountain forests rarely appear now. It is not possible to go hunting in this weather. Fortunately, everyone has more stocks and will not go hungry. If you save some food, you can survive, as long as such snow and snow days will not continue.
Many people in the tribe don't know that there is a team of fifty people who are braving the snow and leaving the forest. These people were sent by the leader and Shaman. They may miss the most important ritual ceremony of the tribe in although, but Shaman and the leader authorized them to be absent because, in the view of Shaman and the leader, this matter is more than a ritual Important, about the future of the tribe.
The name of the team leader is Xiang Chen, which is slightly younger than Duo Kang. He is also a senior Totem Warrior, but he has not been in the tribe for most of the past year.
Xiang Chen is the first group of people who followed Shao Xuan to the sea. From the tribe to the sea, he walked twice with already, this is the third time.
The Xiang Chen was ordered to take people to the seaside to see what happened there. According to other people's ideas, what is it to go out on such a cold day?
But Shaman and the leader want such a cold day!
Even, Shaman and the leader hope that if they really do, as long as this cold day lasts, the better.
The path taken by Xiang Chen is different from the path when Shao Xuan first found the tribe. When Shao Xuan first went to the tribe from the sea, it was almost straight, but it was more difficult to go there. When the tribe people went to the sea, they all followed another route.
They walked out of the forest and passed through An City. They found that Anba City, which was not too deserted even in winter in the past, now has no one outside the city.
Some people are walking around the tower on the city wall, and there are no people anywhere else. They thought of going to Anba City to find a place to rest and change their food. Now it seems that this plan is not successful. The gates were tightly closed, and no outsiders were allowed in.
"Go on." Xiang Chen greeted others.
Compared to the mountain forest, there is less snow here. Perhaps in the eyes of these people in Anba City, already is a heavy snow that has never been encountered for thousands of years. It is difficult to walk and it is extremely troublesome. But Xiang Chen and others who came out of the forest did not think so.
The snow here is only waist deep.
Every time I meet someone on the road and hear their conversation, "This snow already is waist-deep, how should I live?", a few people at Xiang Chen ca n’t wait to say, “It ’s only the waist-deep. That's it, if you walk in the mountains and forests, will you scare your eyes out?!
I have also encountered robbery midway, but it is very rare. In this weather, no professional robbers came out of willing, and the people who came out were amateurs, forced by the snow, because of hunger and cold. , His eyes became aggressive, with a gesture of exemption. Unfortunately, Xiang Chen is not a kind-hearted person. It is so easy to be soft-hearted, and it is impossible to live to this day. If these robbers just begged to speak soft words, maybe Xiang Chen they could divide a little bit to eat, but stand in front of them with a knife, don't blame them for being ruthless.
Bright blood splashed on the snow, and soon frozen with snow water in together. Those who fall there will be lucky, covered with snow, and unfortunately will be the target of other hungry and cold.
Along the way, Xiang Chen has seen too much.
The further you go, the thinner the snow layer.
Xiang Chen feels heavy. Although he doesn't wait to see such a snow disaster, according to the meaning of Shaman and the leader, it may be best that such cold days continue, and most importantly, is there any ice in the sea? This is all that Shaman expects.
Shaman said that if there is ice in the sea, continue to look forward. If there is a large area of ice, this is an opportunity. They can return to their place where they have left for thousands of years and converge with another branch to together. "Hidden diseases" of Flaming Horn people also have a chance to cure. Who doesn't live twice as long as willing? Not to hunt for another 20-30 years, we have to consider withdrawing from Hunting Team, and watching other people from other tribes older than themselves hunt in the mountains fiercely.
It's miserable to think about it.
Do not freeze, do not!
Leaving Anba City, after passing through other smaller cities and towns, there is the same as Anba City. The gates are closed, showing a serious and heavy meaning, just like the hearts of people in the city. And there, the snow is just to the thighs.
Continue to move forward, Xiang Chen's bad feeling is getting stronger and stronger.
Xiang Chen panted when he finally set foot on the semi-desert area, looking away. Here, snow only reaches their knees.
Keep moving forward, step by step into this once dry area.
There are camels looking for ice on the ground, and their hairs have become longer. They crowded in together to keep warm and eat snow to replenish water.
Seeing the pedestrian Xiang Chen, the camels spread their hooves and turned away.
Xiang Chen didn't go after him, he still had food, and he was not in the mood to hunt and hunt, and his steps were more urgent, and he went straight to the sea.
The tall columnar cactus stands there like an icicle, as if a thorn, which stabbed Xiang Chen to bleed blood.
Sea water, no ice!
There is only part of the ice near the coast, but compared to the ice in the artificial river in front of the tribe, the ice is not enough. Can people walk on it? !!
Not to mention, far from the coast, the sea water is still flowing, the wind lifts the waves, and slaps on the frozen ice.
The blue water, sand and gravel covered with snow, and the impact of the two colors may be to some people that this is a rare beauty, however, Xiang Chen and others are disappointed.
It seemed like I had lost all my strength, and the exhaustion along the way became intense. I knelt down on the sand and stone covered with a thin layer of snow and punched the ground with a punch.
A road is broken.
They don't even know if they can hope to spend this sea in their lifetime.
How long is a person's life? For someone who does almost the same thing every day, it seems to pass by in a flash. Xiang Chen seems to see the aging of himself sitting at the door of the house chopping wood and rubbing the rope. The people of the same age as the next-generation tribe drag their prey every day.
I can't bear thinking about it.
With a sigh, with a strong disappointment, the Xiang Chen group returned to Hui tribe / return to tribe, not to mention them, and Shaman probably cried at the side of Fire Pit when they knew it.
When will you return to your hometown? Where is the road?
They don't know anyone. (To be continued ...)
