Chapter 497: Beast Tide Omen
"The moon is full!"
The merchant girl held a bronze spear, stood on the retaining wall, looking at the starry sky, and the cold wind blew on her body and hunted without knowing it. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Su Yang and the witch have been out for a month, but they haven't come back yet, and there is no news.
She wanted to look for it, but she couldn't find it, and this feeling of waiting every day was very uncomfortable.
Yan Lan came suddenly, wrapped in a leopard skin, the weather was getting cooler, the trees in the mountains were beginning to lose their leaves, and winter was not far away.
"Don't worry, Su is protected by God and will come back one day."
Yan Lan's eyes are shining, like the stars changing, she can see the unknown, and she almost never makes a mistake.
But this time she was confident that she was not wrong, but she told a lie, whether Su Yang was going to be good or bad, it is unknown, but at the same time, she also firmly believed that Su Yang would definitely come back, because it was the person she fancied, just like the brightest star in the night sky.
In the month of Su Yang's departure, Yanlan partnered with Ji Li, managing the internal affairs of the tribe together; And the merchant girl partnered with Ya, in charge of arming and hunting, one inside and one outside, and the cooperation was also tacit.
There is the Great Elder Matsu on it, but the old man is no longer as brave as he used to be, and he rarely gives any orders, which is quite a bit of a concern for Tiannian.
Jiang Li has already returned to the Niutou tribe to send tuition fees, bringing back five children, and the eldest girl and the others are back, but Xiao Xia and Gonggong stayed in the Niutou tribe.
In addition, two more people were sent over, two violent women with strong bodies who could beat boys of the same age, and they made a special trip to take care of Xiao Xia, which was also specially arranged by Su Yang before leaving.
As expected, Xiao Xia and Gonggong became seed players in the Minotaur Tribe, but Co-Gong still had to participate in the labor, and Xiao Xia's status was very high, and it was better to stay there and continue to study with the support of Minotaur.
"Whew......"
There is a lone wolf howling under the moon, as if something unquiet is about to happen.
Yan Lan's eyes were like scissors, and she said lightly: "Be careful tonight, the mountains and forests are not peaceful, I always think that Jianmu will do something." ”
Evacuated Daocheng from Taixu, Jianmu appeared, there have been two full moons, after such a long time, Jianmu still did not retreat, nor did he talk to Taixu, no one knew what the attempt was.
Or to confirm Yan Lan's words, that night, the roars of beasts in the jungle came and went, just listening to it made people shiver and make it difficult to sleep.
Hangai, bearded, Dakang, barren...... The warriors kept their weapons within reach, and the weakest ones had already gone up the mountain, especially babies and the elderly, who could not help even if they stayed at the bottom of the mountain.
Most of the supplies are in the mountains, especially food, which is a matter of life in the future, and winter is coming.
On the top of the mountain, the elders overlooked the earth under the light of the fire, and they also felt uneasy, and they all said that the old man knew the destiny of heaven, well, in fact, he was old and sleepy, and he was easy to be awakened at night.
Fire, glowing flowers, fires are lit in the tribe, and there are also on the city walls, illuminating the four fields.
The chirping, the chirping of insects, was no longer audible in this restless night, and the roar of the beast became more and more dense, as if there was some kind of pattern.
"Come and see, these beasts." Someone was shouting, it was the new swineherd of the tribe, who stood out from the crowd of competitors and took over the job of castration.
It was he who first noticed that something was wrong with the captive animals, and they became agitated, but in a moment, a rabbit made a cry like a baby, which was not a good sign.
Under normal circumstances, if a rabbit is seriously ill, it will make a similar sound before it dies, which is like a sign, is there really something bad about to happen?
The rabbits were crying, and the wild boars that had been raised the most were also making a fuss, hitting the fence, and even some of them had jumped out of the fence and ran around.
The sheep and deer were crawling on the ground, as if they did not dare to move, and the few cattle on the leash kept pulling the ropes, trying to break free.
The only two that are normal are chickens and ducks.
Chickens and ducks say, I can't see at night, I only know that I sleep together, and I don't want to be a chicken in the next life, it's better to be a duck.
Duck quack and chicken, I can't sleep at night, quack is useless, I have been cut wings and can't fly out, my fluff is not afraid of the cold, there is not even a nest to shelter from the wind and rain at night, I think I am not a duck, it is better to be a chicken in the next house.
"Woooooo
The sound of the horn sounded, waking up everyone in Taixu, and the crowd was crowded, this was the sound of the horn of danger.
The clansmen rushed to tell each other, but they were not chaotic, and according to the division of labor in the usual drills, the soldiers were in front and swore to defend their homeland.
Although there is a retaining wall behind it, where thousands of troops can be stopped, it is the last line of defense, once they are forced to the mountain, it is too passive, they must wait until Su Wu comes back and hold the city wall.
Yes, they have city walls, walls built by thousands of people, tall and strong, the tribe has long been defended outside, they still have warriors, there is a population, there is nothing to be afraid of.
During this period, people's night vision is generally good, few people are blindfolded, tonight is a full moon night, by the moonlight, all stand at their respective posts.
The city gate has long been sealed, and it is an order issued by the tribe's high-level after discussion, although it will cause inconvenience to go out to pursue, but it also avoids the city gate being breached.
It's just that he hasn't waited for Su Yang to come back, originally according to the previous plan, now they should sacrifice totems, but who knows that the witch girl didn't come back.
Fortunately, there are people in the tribe who stand up, which is like a system, no matter how many people have been before and how many people have left, as long as the core figure is still there, the team can be pulled up in a very short time.
During the matriarchal period, Shang Nu, Yan Lan, Ji Li, and Ya, they stood up and let Taixu enter a state of preparation.
Yan Lan personally walked up to the top of the city gate, this position was higher than the other ranks, and in the past month, it had been reinforced with a stone, which was definitely the safest place to see farther.
The merchant girl held a torch for her next to her, the fire is a gift from the gods, the early use of the fire of the thunder, and later people learned to drill wood to make fire, rumors came from the Chao clan, but later Yanlan confirmed that the rumors were false, and there was no way to verify.
However, the use of flint to make fire, passed down from Taixu, it is the mastery of this skill that can make the tribe get fire at any time.
Fire can illuminate the night, just as God said that there should be light, and there is light in this world; Fire can keep people warm, let people survive cold nights, and bring warmth like sunshine anytime and anywhere.
Fire can also drive away beasts, and as long as there is fire in the cave, under normal circumstances, the beasts will not come.
Fire has so many uses, and it is crucial to be reused at night, and the red light illuminates the eyes of beasts.
Beasts can blend in with the night, and they may have a powerful sense of smell and hearing, but in the light of the fire, their eyes cannot be hidden, and even if they are fleeting, they are easy to catch.
"Over there, there's a herd of beasts approaching." Yan Lan stretched out her hand and pointed, she saw a firefly light shuttling quickly in the dense forest, unnoticeable to others, but she couldn't be mistaken, this was the ability to be a witch.
"And over there, over there......"
Yan Lan pointed in several directions, and finally exclaimed: "It's not good, I'm afraid that there are beasts gathering into a tide." (To be continued.) )
