When Qingyin turned around and wanted to go to the rescue, the overwhelming strange birds had already flown less than 100 meters to the gate. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The gate slowly cut off the world from the outside world with a dull sound, and the passage was so quiet that you could hear the sound of a heartbeat.

No one spoke, and a group of men just turned their heads numbly to star, and outside the door the clansmen were pounced on by a flock of birds, pecking at each other......

The gate slammed to the ground, and all the people in the passage turned to leave. Only the sound of heavy breathing revealed a kind of sadness and unwillingness.

"Why? Why couldn't they have come back sooner? Would you rather trade the lives of a few people for more food?! Why are they still willing to live such a day?! ”

A junior sister had red eyes and asked Shangguan Yan sadly. Shangguan Yan Yinghong's little mouth pursed tightly, Huo Ran turned around and strode away.

Looking at the big red back, Qing Yin sighed lightly: "It's not that they don't want to come back early." Even with the Hadza foot guards, it was only a short hour before dusk that allowed them to go out hunting through the terracotta. ”

"If we catch a little less time every day, more people will not have enough to eat, and there will be no more tuba. Without enough fur and food reserves, by the end of the winter, more people will die of hunger and cold. Without the fearless Tuba of death, when facing the cold winter beast attack, the whole clan will perish. ”

Raising his eyes to look at the gradually darkening sky, Qing Yin remembered the bloody roads, and his eyes were sad: "As for whether they want to live or not, they all have to live." ”

These days, the man who participated in the hunt and watched the tiger just live die in the mouth of the beast in the blink of an eye, but the reason was only to exchange for the lowest desire for a ration. The two gentle-natured junior sisters were already full of sorrow in their hearts, and now they saw the frustration of the Tuba people not saving their companions outside the door when they saw death and their own inability to rescue them, which aroused their strong dissatisfaction with the Tuba people.

But Qingyin's desolate remarks calmed their anxious hearts a little, and a junior sister asked softly:

"But we came, and we were willing to take them out of this cage, why did they still refuse?"

"Because they don't believe in us." After that, Qing Yin looked at the two people who were still holding the bird corpse, and smiled brightly:

"Come, come with me and do something."

Half an hour later, when it was completely dark, a bonfire rose on the ground. The women roasted the processed pieces of meat on the fire. Groups of children sniffed the fragrance and drooled and played non-stop.

Without the nourishment of aura, even the monks who had already opened the valley were hungry. Two gentle and petite women, carrying a huge animal skin baggage, followed Qingyin who was carrying a large bag on her shoulders with the strength to do so.

Seeing that the village chief had finished the sacrifice, Qing Yin hurriedly stopped him from returning to the cave:

"Village chief, we want to exchange the food we brought in for a few Haza."

Haza is a "shoe" that only warriors can wear while hunting, made from wood spinach bark soaked in haygrass sap.

Hay grass is extremely rare, but its juice not only softens the hard wood buckthorn bark, but also protects the feet of most warriors from the heat, allowing them to hunt food through the red heat. And the scum that is cut out is the holy medicine that heals the wounds of the warriors.

"No way!" The village chief was not willing to let these outsiders waste their sacred relics.

"Twenty portions of food for one!"

The village chief walked around her without pause.

Well, the price is too low: "Fifty copies!" ”

Still not stopping? Qing Yin gritted his teeth: "One hundred copies!" Couldn't be more. ”

The village chief turned his head to look at her sideways and stretched out a finger: "One hundred, one piece, one day." ”

That's too much to ask! Even the two gentle junior sisters on the side couldn't help but accuse: "Village chief, you are too much!" We usually hunt more prey than your bravest Tubadu. ”

"It's just that we fight a lot, and we don't eat much when there are fewer people, and we have all distributed it to you, and we haven't exchanged anything with you! Even such a small request, you have to deliberately make things difficult! It's just unreasonable. ”

"Why do we have to pay for our own shoes when we hunt for everyone!"

That's a good saying! The village chief's back finally paused. Qingyin silently gave this junior sister a thumbs up, and immediately jumped in front of the village chief:

"One hundred, one, five days!"

I didn't expect her to be so persistent, and the village chief's brown face was full of doubts: "What do you want to do?" ”

Qing Yin's face straightened: "I'm going out of the mountain with a few companions tonight." Within five days, we'll bring back more food, food that doesn't belong to you! ”

"You're going to die!" The village chief was furious. Although this group of outsiders encouraged their people to leave every day, after all, they lived together for more than a month and taught their people a lot of things. Especially the women who remained, they looked petite and weak, and hunted, but they were more powerful than the bravest Tuba, and they had no reason to let them fool around and send them to death.

The village chief flicked his hand, not wanting to listen to the woman's stupid ideas anymore.

Qing Yin stood steadily, as if the village chief's thick arm was on a wooden stake, motionless. Her big eyes were staring at the village chief, revealing a strong sense of confidence:

"I said yes, I can! We can get through the herd from the outside to the Tuba, and I'll be able to go out again and bring back more food that doesn't belong to you! ”

Qing Yin pointed to the two big burdens at his feet: "This is four hundred portions of food." It's the kind of bird meat that you rarely eat. You give me four khazas, and in five days, what I bring back will allow you to not hunt for at least ten days!" ”

The stout and tall man stared at the thin woman in front of him, stunned by the firmness in her eyes, and looked at each other for a long time, "You come with me." The village chief finally relented and led Qingyin into his cave.

When he came out, Qing Yin carried four Haza in his arms. She instructed the two junior sisters to find someone to summon the captains stationed in the other two villages.

Returning to Shangguan Yan's cave and seeing that she was not there, Qingyin thought for a while, turned around and walked towards the lake a hundred miles away.

The daylight had long since faded, and the cold moonlight had added a touch of softness to the hard earth.

More than a dozen miles away from the Great Lake, there is the only forest growing here. The tree is tall and straight, but not thick. There were no leaves, just brown branches sticking out barely.

But it is this ugly, dry tree that the Tuba people call Narok - the sacred tree. Every year in the winter, when the tree trunk is approaching winter, bags bulge out from all over the trunk and fall off when they reach the size of a football. After smashing it open, it was a yellow-brown soft cotton-like thing, which was the main food of the Tuba people throughout the winter.

When Qingyin found Shangguan Yan, she was squatting in a clearing by the lake, drawing something seriously.

Through the moonlight, Qing Yin could clearly see the various line marks on the ground, which was a kind of formation calculation, which was a hundred times more complicated than the high number, and she was dizzy.

At this time, Shangguan Yan threw away the branches, lay on the ground with his head on the pillow, and looked at the sky in a daze.

"Hey, look at your little face, so thin and white! You're not afraid that Qi Hao will be distressed when he comes back, and I'm afraid that he will think that I have abused you. Just spare me, I don't want to be remembered by him. Qing Yin also lay on her side and poked her waist.

Shangguan Yan was poked and laughed: "Go!" What are you afraid of! In the past ten years, you have been immigrating everywhere, what have you been afraid of? Even if you don't have spiritual power here, you won't lose to anyone if you fight hard with your body, what a cow! Don't you know that those junior brothers and sisters all secretly call you senior sister? If you borrow Qi Hao's courage, you don't dare to calculate you. ”

"It's as if someone is helping the group!"

The two laughed, and Shangguan Yan turned sideways and said, "I must break this formation." ”

"Do you have a clue?"

Shangguan Yan shook his head and sat up, pointing to the big lake with a radius of several hundred miles: "I can only be sure that this array is in the center of the lake." ”

"You also know that this group of rocky mountains for thousands of miles is a natural formation, and it belongs to the category of Chiyan. The rocks and the terracotta outside absorb a lot of sunlight and produce scorching heat, making it difficult to walk. And a kind of shield will also form in the sky, and it will be difficult for birds to cross. But what about the night, what about the winter? There were no birds in the mountains. So at this time, what is the shield in the air used to maintain? ”

"Isn't it the residual heat of the day?"

Shangguan Yan shook his head: "I used to think so. But Qingyin thinks that there are hard-tied stones everywhere here, and only some of the inner mountain walls are softer sand and stones, which can be used by mountaineers to dig out caves with bone knives to live. Except for the wood thorn, the hay grass and the Naraush Sacred Tree, there is no grass here, but the first two are just enough for the mountain people to make a little simple protective tool. Then there are these so-called sacred trees, which bear fruit just enough for them to eat when they can't go out hunting in winter, and the amount is just enough to maintain the ration of about 50,000 people. Don't you think it's all too deliberate? ”

The more Qing Yin listened, the tighter Xiuqi's brows wrinkled: "I have noticed these phenomena, but I thought it was the original owner of this foreign continent, and when I found that there was such a natural array, I casually threw a group of people in." But when you say that, it was all intentional on his part? ”

Shangguan Yan shook his head: "It's not all, the external is the natural formation, and the internal is the formation he laid out." You can't think of it because you don't understand the psychology of being a formation mage. But if you set up a formation, you will be a world of your own, and I will do whatever I want. I also deduced it because I first assumed that it was artificial. She kicked the branch at her feet in frustration:

"I don't know if I'm right."

After thinking about it, Qingyin affirmed her: "What you think should be right." You see," she threw a twig to the surface of the lake, and sank in a few breaths:

He didn't want to be lowered into the lake, and he didn't want to break the eye, so the lake sank when it hit something. Even if someone wants to try to build a ship, these sacred trees are the rations of the mountain people for the winter, and no one will cut them down, and the dead branches and broken strips on weekdays are only enough for them to make a fire. Furthermore, even if a formation mage like you can see the doorway, the spiritual power suppression here is even worse than that of the beast circle outside, and people can't explore it carefully. Speaking of this, Qing Yin's two eyebrows tightened:

"Does this Tuba have any special meaning for him? Otherwise, how could they be besieged in such a place where they had no spiritual power and were so poor in materials that they could only fight for food? ”

Shangguan Yan was silent, but there was no clue, Huo Di stood up and kicked the lines drawn on the ground angrily: "What the hell does he want to do!" Is one great power? Isn't the formation clever? ”

"Confine a continent, raise the creatures here like domestic animals, and let him fiddle with them!"

"Not to mention beasts and birds, even the humans here are not very intelligent! Only know the most primitive rules of survival, kill, kill, kill! Isn't he a human being? ”

"Using the formation to play with everything in the palm of his hand, just to satisfy his purpose of raising Gu? How can he still become a power in the upper realm?! What kind of way did he get this? What a fairy to become! ”

After she vented for a while, Qing Yin walked over and hugged her shoulders, so that her slightly tired friend could have something to rely on.

I still remember that when I first arrived in this foreign continent, there were formations everywhere, and it was simply a paradise for the disciples of the formation peak.

They learned from the sect's predecessors that this alien continent should be one of the fragments of a small world refined by the power of the upper realm for their own use, but somehow, it fell into the space adjacent to the Cangyuan continent. Ten thousand years ago, when the Heavenly Ding Sect's Divine Ancestor ascended, he happened to discover a spatial crack connected to it.

When the people of the Tianding Sect got the message from this ancestor, it took thousands of years to open up the nodes and establish the boundary teleportation array, and this place became a secret realm of the Tianding Sect. (To be continued.) )
