Chapter 2: Food Scarcity

"Xiaofan, let's eat!". The old patriarch looked at the child who was lying on the ground and refused to get up, and scolded with a smile.

"Babble, grandpa...... Hug. Jiang Yifan smiled innocently, his big black eyes narrowed into a crescent moon, he didn't care, he sat and stretched out his white and tender little hand, asking the old patriarch to pick him up.

There are no foreign surnames in this village, all of them are surnamed Jiang, and they are people of the same ancestry.

The surrounding area of the village is rich in vegetation and wild animals, but the food of the tribesmen who guard the mountains and cultivate the scarce land is relatively not abundant, only some rough wheat cakes, wild fruits, etc., and a small amount of meat in the children's bowls.

In fact, food inadequacy has always been a serious problem for the tribesmen. The mountains are very dangerous, and some strange beasts are too powerful and terrifying, and every time you go hunting, accidents may happen, and even people may lose their lives.

If given a choice, the tribesmen would not want to go into the mountains. Because going into the mountains means that there may be bloodshed and death.

Food is precious to them, and there is no room for waste, which is something that every child in the village understands from an early age, hunger, food, hunting, life, and blood are all connected.

The child with the pacifier is named Jiang Yifan, who lost his parents when he was half a year old, and was raised by the villagers, and now he is one year and a few months old.

"Babble, huh...... Tired of running. He had been relentlessly chasing a small finch with a fiery red body, and he was already out of breath, and he sat on the ground with his butt at this time.

He picked it up.

"Something hasn't been right lately, there's always been something big and fierce passing by lately late at night, and the footsteps feel like the earth is shaking, something must have happened in the depths of this mountain range. ”

"Well, I was woken up a few times last night, and I felt chills all over my body, there must be some desolate beasts and big insects passing by here. ”

Several old men spoke one after the other, frowning or pondering, discussing some of the recent signs of danger, feeling that something unusual had happened.

"There may be something terrible in the depths of this great wilderness, which has attracted the attention of some strange beasts in the surrounding area, and they have rushed over. Among them, there may even be a powerful beast that has mastered the mysterious Heavenly Rune bone pattern. The old patriarch Jiang Changfeng said after thinking about it.

"Huh, even this kind of fierce beast that understands the Heavenly Rune Divine Pattern has appeared, could it be some powerful mountain treasure out of it?" An old man suddenly widened his eyes, and his beard and hair were all open, revealing a shocked expression.

The others also showed different colors, their eyes were fiery, but they all quickly extinguished the flames in their eyes, that kind of thing was not available to them, far away in the deepest part of the mountain range, and no one could enter.

For so many years, no one has been able to enter and exit alive, and all kinds of strong species in the mountains are infested, even if all the clansmen in the village break in together, it is difficult to make a wave.

"Patriarchs, clan elders, we haven't entered the mountain for some days. Food maybe..."At this moment, a very strong adult man, who was the leader of the hunting party and would be the successor of the next patriarch of the village, walked into the courtyard.

"However, the mountains have not been very peaceful lately. The old patriarch Jiang Changfeng frowned, interrupted the leader Jiang Laoqi's speech, and said very worriedly.

"Patriarch, but there's really not much food. "Jiang Lao Qidao, he is extremely tall, more than two meters, carrying a heavy sword of hundreds of catties on his back, the whole person is as strong as a humanoid tiger and leopard, and the bronze muscles are all over the body, like snakes and pythons swimming.

"The babies need to grow their bodies, they can't go hungry, and they still have to find some way to solve the food problem. A sect elder spoke.

"Those things are very noisy at night, but they are still relatively calm during the day, and if we are careful, there should be no danger. "Jiang Lao Qidao.

"Don't take risks easily, our clan is still in decline, although there are some of the Heavenly Runes left by the ancestors, but they can't even master the basic use, you are now the backbone of our clan, if you have a large number of casualties, our clan may also be difficult to survive in this vast mountain. Alas, let's go and ask for the ancestral artifacts left by our ancestors, so that we can rest assured. The old patriarch sighed and said.

In the village, the old patriarch Jiang Changfeng led the clansmen to burn incense and set up a case, and after praying sincerely, he carefully took out an object under the spiritual seat of the ancestors, and solemnly handed it over to Jiang Laoqi.

In this way, the strongest group of people in the village set off with huge bows and broadswords, and walked into the mountains, rivers and rivers, and suddenly a great wilderness aura rushed towards them.
