The way out of customs is not easy. In other words, there is no way out of the customs. Among the people of Montenegro, there are a few who are more familiar with this area, and they have found a person who is familiar with the road as a guide in the vicinity, but when they climb over the mountains, they still get lost a few times.

Montenegro was a little angry, and after getting lost again, he couldn't stop scolding the guide: "Do you know the way?" If you dare to delay our king's affairs, see that I don't kill you! ”

They had just defected to Lin Rui, and they were about to perform, but now they were dragged down by the guide, lest they be thought that they were not capable of being able to do so, and they really wanted to kill the guide.

The guide was an "old" man in his thirties, who was quite tactful, and did not pay much attention to the threat of the Montenegrins, but explained: "I was there when I was young, and now it has changed so much, let me think about it, I can get there." Don't rush, don't rush. ”

Inside, he was actually nervous. Lin Ji promised to give him an axe as payment, and he was afraid that he would not get it.

"What you promised us, how many days have you delayed us now, don't you rush?" The people of Montenegro are really anxious.

The guide was angry, and while looking around for the coordinates he was familiar with, he complained in a low voice: "I've been to the north, but there's nothing there, and you can't find anything in the past, so it's better to hunt in this mountain." There is a lot of prey in this mountain, and you have mounts, so you can definitely hunt a lot, and behold, there is a group of long-haired ...... in the distance."

When the people of Montenegro heard this, they scolded again: "What is our business for us to find something, if you delay us any longer, really watch your head!" ”

The guide didn't dare to say anything more, but after seeing the trend of the mountain, he was about to lead everyone up the mountain. I guess I've scolded this strange group of people to the core.

Lin Ji saw that the guide was climbing the mountain at every turn, and he was quite speechless in his heart, so he threw a dagger at him and said, "You go back, we will walk the rest of the way by ourselves." ”

Not only did the forest trail have to go to the grassland, but they also had to find a way to drive the donkeys and horses back, and the path led by this guide was obviously not up to the mark. Lin Ji felt that it was better to find it slowly by himself.

The guide was obviously not satisfied with only getting the dagger, and after picking up the dagger, he said, "Without me leading the way, do you know how to go?" ”

After listening to the translation, Lin Ji pointed to the group of mammoths in the distance and said, "I don't know, but they should know." ”

The elephants in the distance and the elephants ridden by the forest trails are different, as if they are not the same species. However, they are also covered with long fur, and they should also spend the summer in the north. Then you might be able to reach the grassland a little earlier with them.

Under the unwilling gaze of the guide, Lin Ji and the others rode the elephant down the hillside and followed the place where the wild elephant had walked.

The elephant herd in the distance was a little panicked at first, but when they realized that there was no threat from the forest tracks, they resumed their gait and walked leisurely.

Lin Ji and his entourage just followed behind, and they were not in a hurry.

At this time, spring has just arrived in the mountains, and there are purple and red everywhere, and the spring is strong. However, some of the peaks still have ice and snow that have not disappeared, and there are streams falling from the mountains, adding countless scenery to this mountain wilderness.

In addition to the elephant herd, there are all kinds of animals in the mountains. Bears, tigers, leopards, jackals, and sometimes they walk with wild deer and wild boars, and it is peaceful, making people feel as if this is not the world.

Sometimes it's not predators that upset the balance of nature, it's people.

"Someone."

After following the elephant herd for a day, everyone was immersed in the beautiful scenery along the way, and the deer-riding soldiers walking in front suddenly sent a cuckoo call. The forest trails are alert, and everything in the mountains and fields is in chaos.

First the birds flew wildly, and then the beasts scattered. Then wildflowers were trampled into the mud. Finally, in the forest in the mountains, some people with stone spears rushed out with a roar.

I don't know if these people hunted the beasts or not, but after they dispersed the beasts, they suddenly surrounded the forest trails.

Lin Ji hurriedly called back the sharp soldiers and lined up in an open place.

The person holding the spear pulled a half circle from a distance and surrounded Lin Ji and the others, looking at this side curiously and vigilantly. But in reality, there were only a dozen of them.

"How? Do you want to kill them? Bayang turned his head to look at the forest traces, and pulled the newly made horn bow in his hand and was eager to try.

The people on the other side obviously didn't know that there was such a thing as a horn bow, and they were all within range. As soon as he got this strong bow, he actually came over and hunted a lot of beasts along the way. But he's still using it to shoot people.

"Salute first, then soldier. I don't know how many of them there are, so let's befriend them first. Lin Ji took out a small bag of sugar and threw it to Bayang.

Bayang took the candy, pouted and slipped off the elephant's back, slung his bow and arrows on his back, and walked towards the hunters with a smile.

- He has a good talent for language, and he is actually better at communicating with all kinds of tribes and tribes than Lin Ji, so this kind of thing of hitting the enemy's spearhead is basically what he does. Although in his heart, he wished to kill a few times, so as to vent his anger at surrendering to the forest traces.

Walking to the middle of the two sides, Bayang smiled and took a piece of candy and put it in his mouth, then put the sugar down, made a gesture to invite food, and then slowly retreated.

On the other side, when the roasted sun retreated, a half-grown child suddenly rushed out, took the candy and ran back to his camp, giving the sugar to an old man to taste. The old man tasted it, and soon divided a little bit of it from each person, and they all ate it very sweetly.

According to the convention, if you eat the sugar of the forest traces, you should be friends, and the two sides should be able to communicate.

But this time something seemed to have happened, they ran out of sugar, and they tore up the little plastic bag and swallowed it, and then they muttered a little, followed by an argument.

"It's over, that bag of candy is wasted, they're going to rob us." Bayang took the bow in his hand again and looked at them and analyzed.

He was like a prophet at this time, and as soon as he finished speaking, the person opposite turned around with a spear and looked at this side with a bad gaze. It was as if he really wanted to rob thirty or forty people here with the strength of a dozen people.

Bayang took an arrow in his hand, inspected the arrow clusters, and put it on the bow.

Xiaobai let out a low roar, took the shield and broadsword in his hand, and prepared to fight.

Lin Ji sighed secretly, also took out his pistol, loaded it, and lowered his body, ready to give an order.

At this moment, the sound of some kind of beast running came from the forest, and then a cry came.

No one understands the cry of the forest here. However, as the cry came, the people who were preparing to fight on the opposite side collapsed one by one, and they were unwilling to look at this side, and quickly retreated into the forest.

"Gone? Bad seeds! "Bayang aimed at the last person to withdraw from the forest, and he was also unwilling. He still wanted to kill, he wanted to tell the world, even if he surrendered to the forest traces, he was still heroic.

"Why don't we chase them?" Bayang asked Lin Jidao.

Lin Ji did not respond to Bayang. Because the forest was listening to the sound of the beast running and looking into the forest. He recognized the sound of the beast's hooves, and his heart was inexplicably excited. At one point, he saw several knights through the cracks in the forest.

That's a woman on horseback!

The focus is on the horses!

Later studies have shown that horses were tamed late. Thousands of years later than cattle. Because this kind of thing is not suitable for horses. It wasn't until humans invented the metal chew that horses were tamed into domestic animals.

This is the history of large-scale domestication of horses, and since then, the world has joined human civilization with horses, and human civilization has developed rapidly.

Before large-scale domestication, Lin Ji did not know if anyone had domesticated horses on a small scale. Now, it seems, there is.

When Lin Ji saw the woman on horseback, he was more excited than he was when he saw gold.

The purpose of his trip was donkeys and horses, and he didn't see a horse all the way here, and he was worried that the horse would not survive in this area because of the climate. After all, this era, no matter how you look at it, is the era when mammoths dominate the grassland. Now, he finally saw the horse. And it's tamed.

How could this not excite him?

In the middle of the forest, the woman on horseback seemed to look this way.

Lin Ji immediately looked back with his glasses.

Seeing the traces of the forest, Bayang asked again: "Do we want to chase?" ”

"Chase, but keep your distance and don't cause misunderstandings. We have to befriend them. Lin Ji said casually.

"Huh?" Bayang was a little puzzled. They are all ready to rob themselves, and they still want to make friends? How to make friends? Show it to me. He was going to chase them and wash them in blood.

"Well, I think you'll like that woman when she was told to be very pretty." Lin Ji looked at the woman in the glasses and said.

"Huh? Why don't we stay here and camp? When Bayang heard the beautiful woman, he immediately changed his tone. It's kind of interesting, otherwise he'd be going to be bloodbathed.

The main thing is that Lin Ji looked at the posture of looking at the glasses with a look of lust and soul, and Bayang felt that this woman must be no worse.

Lin Ji was tempted at this moment.

In his glasses, he saw four horses and six women.

The horse is not tall and handsome, and it is completely incomparable with those pure-bloods of later generations, and the coat color is not glamorous, but Lin Ji confirmed that it is a real horse. Some of the horses also rode two women.

As for the woman's appearance, he did not look closely.

Facts have proved that Bayang does have a set of ways to interact with people.

He decided to camp where he was, then went out with the people, and after a round of the neighborhood, he quickly determined where their tribe was. Then he approached the tribe again with the candy. Although he was kicked out this time, he had gained the favor of these people. Later in the evening, the men appeared in the camp on this side of the forest.

It's just that what makes Bayang feel very dissatisfied is that all the men who came, and not a single woman appeared.

The two sides do not understand each other's language, and communication can only be done by gestures.

Bayang just told them that he was going north, which made him sweat a lot. When he prepared some food and wanted the men to call the women, Lin Ji brought a picture of the horse, and the men immediately ran away in an uproar.

"What do you mean?" Bayang didn't know Lin Ji's intentions, so he asked helplessly.

"What do you mean?" Lin Ji didn't know why they ran, and he asked.

There is, of course, no answer.

After those people ran away, some people ran back soon after, shouting for Lin Ji and the others to leave here immediately, or they would kill Yunyun.

Lin Ji really didn't know what was going on, so he could only continue on the road obediently.

The crowd walked a little north and changed places to camp for the night, but the other party did not come and say anything more. This should be the end of the matter.

But on the second day, when everyone packed up and prepared to go on the road, everyone found that they were being followed.

Lin Ji went around to an uphill slope, looked down with his goggles, and found that only a woman on a horse was following.

Lin Ji was guessing the woman's intentions, and after Bayang grabbed his glasses and looked at them, he praised him: "This woman is really beautiful." ”

Lin Ji took back his glasses and looked at this woman carefully, and found that as Bayang said, this woman was very beautiful.

The woman is ten ** years old, although she also has a round face, her eyebrows are clear, her nose is straight, and her lips are red. An old sheepskin wrapped around the upper body, looking bulging. The waist is bare, but it looks quite delicate and strong. The legs that straddled the horse's back hung down, and they were also long and strong.

"I'll go talk to her." Bayang was obviously impressed, and was eager to run back with a different deer, but as soon as he turned around, the woman hid in the forest.

As the team walked further, the crowd could find the woman behind them again.

In this way, the forest trail goes, the woman follows, the forest trail stops, and the woman stops. If Bayang wanted to go over and say hello, the woman would hide in the forest.

Everyone discussed for a long time, and they didn't know what the woman wanted to do, but fortunately, she was the only one behind, and everyone could only relax and follow her.

After walking forward for a while, the forest trail found the wild elephant herd and continued to follow north. The woman in the back followed them all the way.

It's not that the two sides are completely devoid of communication. Lin Ji stopped to eat, and after eating, he left something in place, and the woman would be seen picking it up and eating it. You can also see her enjoying her food in the glasses.

For this reason, Bayang left almost half of his food and wine, just to taste it for women. At one time, there was too much to drink, and the woman was probably drunk, and she sang songs for hours not far behind. Bayang is like the little man who fell in love for the first time, and he can listen to it in a daze.

After walking fast and slowly in the mountains for a few days, the mountains and fields in front of them suddenly became empty, the world became open, and the grassland was in front of everyone's eyes.

Lin Ji used a sextant to confirm the latitude and longitude, drew a mark on the map, and said to everyone: "We will rest here for two days, and we may not even be able to find a place to shelter from the wind." ”

Stopping here is also to find out the intentions of the woman in the back. Otherwise, with the tail behind the butt in the vast grassland, Lin Ji has no sense of security.

They camped at the foot of a mountain and hunted animals to cook them. After the meat was cooked, Lin Ji filled a big bowl and asked Xiaobai to bring it to the woman in the back.

This is the first time that I have taken the initiative to deliver food to the woman in the back. Bayang originally said that he was going, but Lin Ji felt that it might be better for Xiaobai to go.

After Xiaobai put down the sword and shield, although he was not small, he actually had some affinity. With the food in her hand, the woman should not be afraid.

"She's eaten so much of us, and she still won't let us get close, why are you sending these here?" Bayang was a little dissatisfied with Lin Jidao.

He gave so much food, and he didn't get anything in return, and he complained a little. Lin Ji brought the pot of food...... That iron basin alone is worth a lot of money, and that woman will definitely not pay it back.

Lin Ji looked at the distance and said lightly: "There is a thing in this world that teaches **, although I don't have it, but I have **, as long as she eats it, she will be yours today." ”
