Looking at the vast and frozen Mirror Lake, Lin Tian suddenly wanted to try the feeling of flying on the Mirror Lake.

"Gesang, Chubby, let's go back and walk on the mirror lake, so that the sleigh will be faster."

"But we don't know the direction to go home, Brother Lin Tian, if we get lost here, we're finished."

"We just need to go in the direction of the sun, we go all the way to the northeast according to the map, and now the sunset direction is southwest, which is exactly the direction of my Li station."

"No, I'm going to protect you and return to the Li tribe safely, it's over if you lose your way on the mirror lake, and it won't be long before it's night."

Tiewa verbally rejected the suggestion.

Lin Tian blew again, and finally moved the two. The three of them, a cart and a horse, galloped on the ice, and the laughter was particularly ethereal.

It was really fast on the ice, and there was no detour from Mirror Lake. Therefore, Lin Tian and the three of them returned to the Li tribe in the evening when the sun had not yet set. When they returned to the Li tribe, the three of them immediately went to the patriarch to report and report the situation.

"How's it going, you little guys, it's finally gotten your wish, is it fun outside?"

The patriarch smiled and said to a few people.

"The northern land is just like that, it is more desolate than our Li tribe, and there is nothing to see in the ice and snow."

Gesang said disapprerovingly.

The patriarch knew his daughter's character, and when he saw Tiewa's smiling appearance, he estimated that he was quite happy on this trip.

"Xiaotian, why did you come back so quickly, I estimate how many hours will it take you to come back?"

"Uncle Patriarch, we are back from the Mirror Lake."

"What, you are too bold, what if you lose your way, it is even more dangerous to find your way at night, alas, you are too bold."

"Uncle Patriarch, this is my fault, I took them on the ice."

"Father, didn't we come back safely, Brother Lin Tian is very capable, he won't let us lose it!"

Just as he was about to lecture Lin Tian's patriarch and ask him to be more cautious next time, he happily shut up when he heard his daughter say this.

According to the report, Lin Tian learned that before the Li tribe's assistance, the situation of the surrounding small clans was not optimistic, and most of the clans had a lot of complaints about the big leader of the ghost party. This is how the people of Yidi can survive without other thoughts, because their ancestors have lived like this for thousands of years, and they believe that the greatest happiness of man is to live.

The patriarch knew that if the ghost side started a war, it would usually be after the early spring sowing, so the Li tribe had to accumulate more strength during this time. The lifestyle of Yidi is mainly nomadic and hunting, supplemented by farming. The climate of Yidi also determines this, Yidi can only be harvested once a year, ploughing in spring and harvesting in autumn. There is not much grassland in Yidi, and there are fewer in the further north, which also limits large-scale grazing, and the shepherding pattern of Yidi is loose and unmanaged, so it is inefficient.

The way to accumulate strength is to accumulate more food, armor and weapons, but the Li people are scarce. Therefore, Lin Tian suggested before that he befriended the surrounding tribes, and when the time came, he would gather a small amount to grow a lot and strengthen his strength. If the ghost party really does something to the Li people, then the Li people gather people from other tribes to resist the ghost party, and the Li people's stockade is a little insufficient. So these days, the Li patriarch ordered the camp to be expanded, more tents were erected, and at the same time, the defense measures of the village and the surrounding traps were also being improved.

During this period, the Li people would trade with Wuheng every 5 days, and the transactions were too frequent, and the inventory of salt was no longer enough. And during this time, there were too many things for the clan, and even Tiewa, who has always liked to be lazy, has not walked out of his father's blacksmith shop for a long time. Gesang was also arranged with a lot of things, and it was almost difficult for the three friends to gather together to go out and play during this time. Among the three, even if Lin Tian has always been taken care of by the clansmen, this time is not easy, Lin Tian has never done physical work, but Lin Tian has done mental work.

Due to the heavy affairs of the clan in recent times, the salt production could not keep up with the amount of transactions, and they were forced to reduce the number of transactions, but the Li people needed more materials, so the patriarch found Lin Tian again to seek a solution.

Lin Tian gave the patriarch a plan to make gut and sell it to Wuheng in exchange for more supplies. "At that time, no one in the world knew how to make gut, and gut can save people's lives, Wuheng is about to fall into war, and these things are needed, and gut must have a good price."

"Haha, yes, why didn't I think of it, but even if we kill the animals in the clan, we won't get enough intestines?"

"We don't have it, so we go and buy other clans, it's useless for them to take the intestines, those clans can exchange it for something, why not?"

"Haha, Xiaotian, you are still smart, no wonder the clan elder said that it was right to find you if there was a problem."

Lin Tian was embarrassed, and the patriarch left happily after getting the solution.

At this time, it was in a hall with a bright bonfire and a warm spring. A middle-aged man in a snow-white wolf fur coat slapped the table in front of him angrily, "Who the hell is it, who is it?" I leaked the news, did any of you betray me? ”

"Great Chief, wronged, we will not betray the Great Chief."

The crowd shouted loudly.

"You are all my cronies, I naturally know that it won't, but who leaked the news that we will attack Wuheng this time, I got a secret report, Wuheng has recently built a large number of armor and built city towers, which is clearly a precaution against me."

The big leader of the ghost side, Bai Yan, said slightly angrily after looking at the people below.

"Big Chief, maybe my ghost side also has Wu Heng's spies, who saw the unusualness in the city of Fucheng, so Wu Heng Fang guessed our intentions."

After one of the people in the hall spoke, the other retorted: "Nonsense, no foreigner can set foot in my city, how to investigate." ”

"Why not, Wu Heng has countless wealth, how easy it is to buy off one of us, as long as this person truthfully reports the situation in Fucheng to Wu Heng, how can the two old and one young of the Wu clan not guess our intentions."

Bai Yan waved his hand to stop the quarrel in the hall, "Dolu is right, the two people, the old and the young, are really smart, especially the old guy is shrewd like a ghost." Immediately afterwards, Bai Yan thought for a while, and then said to everyone in the hall: "Since you can't hide it, forget it, give me more efforts to build weapons, I want to see 10,000 sets of armor before the beginning of spring, and I don't finish what you know the consequences." Also, Doru will investigate for me which traitor leaked the news, find out for me, and I will chop him up and feed him to the wolves. ”

"Yes".

Everyone under the white hall who looked at each other replied.

In one of Wuheng's tents, Wu Yao asked his grandfather, "Grandpa, let's put on a defensive posture now, doesn't that tell the ghost party that we already know their intentions?" There is a good chance that the Nali people will soon be exposed? ”

"Are you worried about that kid Lin Tian?"

"No, grandpa, we are not allies with the Li clan now, we still need them, they are exposed too early, will the strength not accumulate enough."

Wu Yao's little face was slightly red, and she was a little embarrassed in the face of the old man's frank admittance. The old man laughed strangely, "I guess it won't be long before that Bai Yan will do it, and he won't even wait for the spring sowing, he wants to catch us off guard, so he started to deploy early to prevent him." ”

"As for the Li people, don't you know that the Li people are frantically trading with us these days, and they have exchanged a lot of materials, which are enough for the Li people to use for themselves, and they are still trading with us frequently. This shows that the Li people have long been looking for helpers, and this is for helpers. Especially recently, the Li people have come up with that intestine again, a few small intestines can be exchanged for my set of armor, and the good things that Lin Tian did on a regular basis instigated the Li people to sit on the ground and raise the price, and the Li patriarch couldn't think of this method. ”

"But grandpa, we tried that gut, and it really worked very well, and it could save a lot of lives after the war."

"It's not that I feel sorry for those materials, I just feel that I was slaughtered by Lin Tian's kid, and I put it on the table, even if this thing is so rare in normal times."

The old man said indignantly.

If the old man knew that the Li clan had taken away the animal intestines from Wu Heng at a very low price, and then sold them to Wu Heng at a high price after going back to process them, it was very likely that he would vomit blood angrily and scold Lin Tian, a profiteer.
