Chapter 44 (1/2)
In the dark cave, the chief bowed his head and did not speak. After a moment, he said in a low voice: ”fortunately, we exchanged a batch of food from the Heze tribe It's going to last a while. ”
The witch sighed and did not speak.
”How could these fierce creatures suddenly come to our east?” The chief frowned and thought hard.
The witch did not answer.
Chief: ”more than 30 years ago, a large number of giant beasts migrated from far away places, passing through the west of black ridge, forcing the fierce creatures there to take refuge here. Perhaps, is this also because of the large-scale migration of the great beasts?”
”By the way, I remember Pu Tai said that on the way to the Heze tribe last time, I also met a small group of giant beasts!”
Wu pondered for a moment: ”it should not be that the large-scale beasts migrate regularly, and when they pass through the west, the ground on our east side will feel a slight tremor, which I did not feel this time.”
”The tremor is very slight Can it be that we ignored it? ” Asked the chief reluctantly.
Wu clearly looked at him: ”you are afraid that there may be drought in the west of the black ridge, so that the fierce creatures all come to our side?”
The chief vomited: ”if that's the case, the tribes will be miserable. They have to wait until the rainy season to leave. It's the middle of the dry season. If we have been unable to hunt in the jungle, what do the ethnic people eat? Now we have not enough food to consume. ”
The chief walked uneasily in the same place: ”what is the reason...”
Sometimes, unknown danger is the most terrible.
The tribe has seen improvement, but it will soon face this kind of crisis
Wu indifferent way: ”do everything, listen to the destiny. Our ancestors will protect us. ”
”Pay attention to stabilize the emotions of ethnic people,” he said
”Yes, I know,” the chief said
After a few words in a low voice, the old man's back slowly disappeared in the cave, swallowed by the darkness. The chief wiped his face with his hand, and his anxiety disappeared, leaving him calm, and then he walked out.
Ye Xi left the corner quietly.
The chief walked out of the cave, pondered for a moment, and called for a soldier.
Ye Xi noticed the scene not far away.
He knew this soldier. He was very dexterous and good at hiding himself. He was responsible for exploring the way when the hunting team was hunting. He was also included in the Warriors team who went to the Blackpool fair last time. Because of the message he brought, he helped the team avoid several dangers.
Ye Xi pretended not to be far away and listened to their conversation.
His five senses are stronger than they think. They think the distance is safe. In fact, he can hear it.
Chief: ”in the future, the jungle will become more and more dangerous. At that time, we must not go into the jungle The tribe hasn't taken water for some time, and the water tanks are already empty. Go to the lake today. If it's safe, we'll go to the lake to get water today. ”
I don't know how long this turmoil will take. The more water is prepared, the better.
The soldier nodded solemnly.
The chief asked again and again: ”be careful, pay attention to hide your whereabouts. Once you find that there are too many dangerous things on the road, you will come back immediately! Do you know? ”
”Yes The soldier took orders, armed, flexible figure gradually disappeared in the jungle.
In the open space.
Some of them are grinding their own bone vessels and some are making tools.
Ye Xi had nothing to do. He took a piece of wood and sat at the mouth of the mountain. He decided to make a tea cup himself.
The sawdust was scraped up by the bone knife and dropped to the ground. As time went on, a crude wooden cup embryo gradually formed.
The sun is setting to the West.
More and more wooden cups were placed on the ground beside Ye Xi. They were arranged in turn, and their shapes changed from crude to barely visible.
Ye Xi held the embryo of a wooden cup in his hand and began to carve patterns on the cup.
He kept an eye on what was going on outside.
It's been so long The soldier hasn't come back yet?
Ye Xi put down the wooden cup and looked at the chieftain standing not far away from the forest.
The chief's face looked calm, but a closer look revealed the anxiety hidden in his eyes.
Until the end of dinner, people put out the fire and walked into the cave, the figure of the soldier still did not appear.
