Chapter 468: There is no danger
The entire expedition team was immersed in training and familiarizing itself with the equipment and preparing in advance, and the method of the wild turtle was effective and mingled with everyone, an ambitious, idealistic, and eloquent leader, who was quickly recognized by the grassroots people. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Even if there are individual officers, they still don't like a barbarian as their captain. That doesn't change now. I had to accept my fate.
On the fifth day, the turtle brought a detailed report he had made to Yao Ran, and after Yao Ran's two corrections, the expedition finally embarked on the westward journey on a sunny morning, and the first rule of the expedition was to prohibit alcohol.
The prohibition was issued by the barbarians, but it was not enforced very well, and the team members did not hold grudges. Because some drinks are distributed at dinner every day. Whether it is to relieve fatigue or promote blood circulation and eliminate blood stasis. When I received the order, everyone was very sorry at first. I feel like there is no alcohol to drink for the journey ahead. But when they received the drinks from the barrels at dinner, they were excited.
The brute turtle deliberately equipped three ten wheeled carts with dozens of barrels of wine, which was also a way that he implemented after communicating with Yao Ran, and the entire expedition team was fully equipped like a small tribe, but there were a little fewer women. There were only two women in the entire ranks.
This problem the turtle himself did not realize that the turtle had been slightly resistant to women since that incident. Yao Ran told the brute an interesting thing, or a truth.
Yao Ran let the barbarian turtle go out for the sake of the population, as well as resources, and the first place is the population. Then the fifty or so men in this team, who has the ability to bring me back alone is a woman, and he is our hero.
When he first heard Yao Ran's words, the brute turtle was blindfolded, and he could only give a thumbs up after understanding Yao Ran's intentions. Such a decision can also allow the men on the opposite side of the entire expedition to be good flower messengers and take care of the only two women.
The westward journey was spent on the territory of the Yao clan for the first few days. So the road was unimpeded, and on the seventh day, the turtle encountered a small obstacle.
Along the way, I drew the map in my hand, and when I just walked out of the map in my hand, a small river was in front of everyone.
The brute turtle does not have Yao Ran's retinal system, and can tell that it is a shallow beach and a deep pool. The pontoon bridge could only be erected, and at this time, the experienced person withdrew his value, and Shane told the turtle that there was a low cliff in the upper reaches of the river, and that the river was flowing from the north. Not far below the cliff there is a shoal, although there are more large rocks. But it's certainly much easier than erecting a pontoon bridge out of thin air.
Listening to Shane's words, the turtle did not hesitate too much, the map in his hand always had to be drawn, of course, it was as detailed as possible, the turtle walked a few times in his notebook, although the only steam locomotive in the team was not driven by a steam engine, but the mechanical counter was still on, and how much history it had traveled could still be recorded.
After walking for two days, the cliff in Shane's mouth was discovered, and Xiao Mumu and the others, although their vigilance against Shane had not decreased much because of this incident, their serious vigilance had been lowered a lot.
It's just that Shane's next words didn't make everyone show just a good sense of closeness to him. The tortoise wanted Shane to tell him where he had come and what villages he had passed by. Shane firmly refused, and then returned to his tent.
Such a result can only make more people guess, and the guessed results are often scary and terrifying, but fortunately, if the protagonist of the story does not admit it, there will be no problem.
But the next day, when Shane reappeared in the tent with red eyes, he gave a reason that was not an answer, and the road he had come from was a primeval forest. It was not suitable for their ranks.
And at the edge of that primeval forest was a steppe with no end in sight, and that savannah was more dangerous than the desert in Shane's original team. Most of the grasslands like to hunt primitive people, lions, tigers and leopards.
The current team is different, not to mention the eight bull crossbows, just those folding crossbow arrows, there are almost no creatures in nature that the expedition team is afraid of. According to Shane, after crossing the river, the tortoise rested for three days, and after receiving an accurate report, the tortoise and the people began to march in the direction of due west.
Two days later, the team arrived at the endless prairie that Shane had mentioned, and the prairie here was indeed endless, and herds of herbivores ran on the prairie, not knowing if it was because of their existence, or because the grass here did not grow to the height of the desert fortress. Only calves or just below waist height.
Coming to the prairie, all kinds of unknown animals appeared in the notebook of the turtle and the little wood.
Because of the abundance of aquatic grasses, there are still dinosaurs in the grassland, but the number is not as large as that of small mammals, only a few percent. The map of the steppe is not easy to make, because the eyes are almost always the same green.
There was not even a single reference for the migration of animals throughout the savannah, and after seven days of walking, a huge river appeared in front of the expedition of the wild turtles. It is better to say that it is a big river than a wide river. It's almost impossible to see the head, and with such a width, it's impossible for the turtle to build a bridge over it.
They had to go all the way up the river, and the beasts showed their presence by the river, dozens of steppe wolves, leopards, saber-toothed tigers, and lions. The beasts of prey all became members of the expedition under the blows of bows, arrows and spears, and they were all eaten close to the stomachs of everyone.
There are also creatures that are very similar to the horses Yao Ran said. were recorded by the two of them in a row. Dangers have not happened before, such as when a person testing the depth of water at the water's edge was attacked by a creature with a long nose like a pig. I was bitten on the thigh, but fortunately I was saved by the people around me. If Yao Ran is here, he must recognize it, it is a crocodile, ugly and thick-skinned, and a predator.
There is also a whole group of triangular elders, I don't know if it is because the brute turtle is camped in their territory or because of what, but the brute tortoise who has set up camp has no intention of compromising with these brainless cold-blooded animals. Directly open the Eight Bull Crossbow with crossbow arrows, bows and arrows and other segments, and after shooting five adult Triceratops, capture their children. This little dinosaur became a small pet on the expedition.
There were thrills along the way, but the good thing was that the food was not reduced, and every car was full of all kinds of air-dried meat according to Lao Jin's words. According to Lao Jin, this was what the patriarch had done before in the expedition to save more food.
