Chapter 608: The Vast Snow Field (31)
Crossing the river, the temperature rises invisibly, when the four of them face inward all the way, they see the lush vegetation everywhere, and occasionally you can see the figure of the antelope frightened and dodging, this river valley actually seems to have a paradise scene, and the scenery across the same river is completely different.
Yuchun couldn't help but marvel.
Finally, when a field with obvious signs of reclamation appeared in front of him, Yuchun couldn't be more shocked.
The fields were not planted at this time, but the ridges were straight, and the fertile soil was still loose and not in the other place, and it was evident that not long ago someone had deliberately loosened the soil here in preparation for planting in the spring of the following year.
Shen Nishang leaned over and picked up the half-dried plant from the edge of the ridge, and looked at it to see that it was exactly the same as what they had found earlier.
Ling Fei and the two of them saw that Shen Nishang had already discovered it by herself, so they didn't mention it, Ling Fei pointed to the location close to the snow mountain: "There are a few hot spring pools over there, and there are traces left by someone, but we walked around and didn't find the station." β
"The traces are not long left, no more than a month at most. Hua Xun added.
Shen Nishang was thoughtful.
It was not more than a month at most, and today, December 20th, the last time they passed through the Maquan River was about half a month ago.
That is, it is very likely that the people here migrated and left during this time.
Is it really a cunning rabbit with three holes, moving when you hear the wind?
"Do you want to go and see the mountains?" Hua Xun asked, "There is not much snow in the middle of the mountain to the south, and it is also leeward. β
"We originally wanted to go up, but we took you over first for fear of delay. "Ling Fei interface," the fields have been opened, and even if this is not a place to settle, it is very important. The Snow Clan worships the gods of the snow-capped mountains and is very likely to settle in the snow-capped mountains. β
"Come up and take a look. Shen Nishang nodded.
The four of them started their ascent from the south.
On the way, at the foot of the mountain, passing several hot spring pools of different sizes, the dense heat is constantly rising, and Yuchun picked up a broken straw bracelet by the edge of a pool, and there is a polished and smooth animal tooth bone bead on the bracelet, in addition, the walking traces on the ground that have been deliberately concealed are also very clear after removing the dirt and stone grass roots.
There are indeed signs of human life here.
Up the mountain, Hua Xun quickly found an artificially opened mountain road, winding to a place halfway up the mountain.
It can be seen that the people who left were in a hurry, and although the mountain road was also camouflaged with dirt and stones, they also revealed traces after careful searching.
The four of them reached the end of the mountain road, and three forks appeared in front of them.
Each fork leads to a cave.
The cave is hidden under vines, but there is nothing to hide when you get closer.
The cave is very deep, and two of the caves have huge hollow holes in the belly of the mountain, and the huge hall-like space in the belly of the mountain connects countless small passages.
The entrance to a cave on the far side was sealed by a boulder more than two feet high.
Hua Xun and Ling Fei tried to move the boulder, but Shen Nishang stopped them.
There is already enough evidence of life in the two caves that have been entered to show that this place is the place where the Snow Clan is sheltered, and since the Snow Clan has used huge stones to block this cave, it is obviously extraordinary.
Their purpose is to find the Snow Clan, and if they want to gain the trust of the Snow Clan, then try not to violate the other party's taboos.
Yuchun held up the black cake with a strange smell that he had just found in a cave, and examined it vigorously for a long time, still feeling a little unconvinced: "They just eat this?
"It's barley flour with salt and ghee in it. Shen Nishang smiled and shook her head, "People who haven't seen it feel weird, and those who like it naturally feel fragrant." This stuff is very nourishing. β
Yuchun still felt disgusted, but he was also careful to wrap it in a handkerchief, and planned to go back to show off to Xiao Cui and Er Ya who were left behind.
"Barley is the kind of wheat we found earlier?" Ling Fei pointed in the direction of the field below.
"Hmm. Shen Nishang nodded and said, "It should be a kind of wild barley cultivated, which is more than several times more nourishing than our common wheat." β
"It's so good, how is the yield?" Ling Fei immediately thought of something else, "If it's a transplantβ"
"Don't think about it. Shen Nishang saw through his thoughts at a glance, "I don't know if the yield is high, but this kind of wheat can only grow on this plateau, and it can't survive if it moves to other places." β
Ling Fei shrugged and said no more.
The four of them went all the way back to the bottom of the mountain, and after stopping at the hot spring, the three of them looked at Shen Nishang together.
After walking, the answer is beyond doubt.
This valley must have been settled by people for a long time.
The passages carved out of the cave and the cave at the end for people to live and live, the unexpected height of the cave, and the various traces left inside, all reveal the answer.
It is indeed a snow tribe colony.
At least one of them.
As for whether it is the most fundamental clan land, it is difficult to say at the moment.
At least the Snow Clan walked so neatly, maybe this settlement may not be so important.
But the question now is, what do they do next?
Where did the migrating Snow Clan go?
"Could it be that you found out that we were passing by, so you alarmed them?" Ling Fei reacted quickly, and quickly thought about it from the time, but he still felt incredible.
"The Snow Clan can hear for hundreds of miles. Shen Nishang sighed.
At first, when Segoron said it, she was more surprised and surprised, but now she feels that it is really a headache.
The three of them were shocked when they heard this.
"Baili listening?" Yuchun couldn't believe it, "It's not similar to clairvoyance Shunfeng ears, so how can I find it, we haven't been next to each other, and people have run away." The SnowClan is tall with long thighs and runs ...... It should be soon. β
Yuchun na, na.
"Why didn't you say it earlier?" Ling Fei rolled his eyes, a little helpless.
"I also know soon. Shen Nishang pointed to the other side, "When I went back to camp here, Sai Gelang told me. Maybe when Saigoran tells me, they should pack their bags. β
In the end, Shen Nishang couldn't help but tease bitterly.
"That guy doesn't seem to believe us. Ling Fei hooked his lips and smiled.
"It takes a process to trust people, and we don't guard against each other at the beginning. Shen Nishang said calmly, "The border clan has suffered for many years, and if they want to win the trust of others, they naturally need more patience." β
"I didn't ask him for anything, he loved it or not. Ling Fei didn't care, unwilling to spin around on this topic, "We don't have an idea, what to do next, you can get an idea." β
For a while, Shen Nishang really couldn't make up her mind.
"Is the Codex on you?" Shen Nishang groaned and looked at Ling Fei.
Ling Fei was stunned and took out a few fragments of the Codex from his arms.
Several pages of the codex are wrapped in oiled paper, showing the careful care of the owner.
