Chapter 18: Winter
On the second day of the first snowfall, the hunters of the Nir tribe began to hunt one after another.
There have been precedents for other hunter tribes to temporarily reside in another tribe, and naturally the other tribe needs to be paid a lot of money.
It had just entered winter, and the snow was still thin, so in the morning the tribe heard the "creak" of boots on the snow. Accompanied by the sound of brooms sweeping snow on the ground, the whole village seemed unusually holy, but it seemed as if it had been buried by something.
Following Aldrich's guidance, Sevia found Miles' residence.
Miles was almost recovered, his blonde hair still shining as if it were shining. He swept the snow with his head down, curling his neck in an old fox fur scarf.
Sevia walked a certain distance, and Miles looked up. He knew that a number of Nir hunters had entered the tribe yesterday.
He looked at Sevia quizzically. He didn't know what the captain of the Nir clan was looking for him. After all, since the disappearance of Lin Ya and Christina, he has never gone out of the tribe to hunt.
"Little brother, I know you're sad. Sevia wanted to put his hand on Miles' shoulder, but after thinking about it, he didn't. He looked at the handsome young man in front of him and felt inexplicably good about him.
"But be sure to tell me what they look like and where they went missing. ”
Miles' eyes sparkled!
The hunters of the Neil can help find the Wood Fang!
He didn't speak, but raised his hand and welcomed Sevia in.
......
Lin Ya woke up.
He propped himself up. He didn't know why he fainted, but he felt that he had fallen asleep, but his spirit was very weak.
He patted his head vigorously, but he stumbled upon a thin layer of frost on the window, and he could vaguely see that it was already a silvery white outside.
Finally, it's snowing.
Lin Ya thought, but felt that his head didn't hurt so much. He struggled to his feet, and found Sheaton coming in from outside. The cold air from outside rushed into the house, forming a heavy water vapor.
"Oh, you've been here. Sharton sensed Lin Ya's aura, and even if he knew about Lin Ya's existence, he could only feel it a little.
Lin Ya's qi realm is no different from that of ordinary hunters.
Sheaton was worried about the prophecy that Clautos had relayed to him, so naturally he didn't have the opportunity to greet Lin Ya more. He needs to think now, and he needs to rest.
"Chief, you're back. Lin Ya was still a little nervous when he saw Shaton, and he told himself in his heart that Shaton had saved his life! After all, living in the barbarian tribe all the time is not a long-term solution.
Due to the existence of the old wind in his body, Lin Ya's learning ability is still relatively strong, and after living in Shaton's house for just a few days, he has basically mastered the barbarian language.
Sarton didn't say anything more, but picked up the bottle on the low table and took a sip of it.
Seeing him like this, Lin Ya didn't want to bother him anymore, so he pushed open the wooden door and walked out.
Winter has arrived, and the weather outside is really not comparable to the previous few days. As soon as Lin Ya went out, he shivered several times from the cold. He dragged Sharton's lambskin coat on the shelf and walked towards Mu Yan's house.
He's going to find Mu Yan!
This was almost the only friend he had in the barbarians, who, though hospitable, were not of the same tribe. And Mu Yan's standard tribal language really brought him some warmth.
Lin Ya knew that he was definitely leaving.
If, according to the old wind, his roots should be in the desert!
As he walked, he passed by the bounty hunter's mission monument and saw a beard with thick healing leaves wrapped around his hands. The bearded man also saw him and raised his axe at him.
Soon, Lin Ya walked to Mu Yan's house. He knocked on the wooden door, and when no one answered, he stepped in.
Mu Yan's house is very large, and there are a lot of furnishings in the house. Lin Ya saw that there were all kinds of tools used by Mu Yan to set the trap at that time in the corner, and there were all kinds of blood stains on them, and he couldn't tell whether it was the prey or the hunter.
Lin Ya looked around, and Mu Yan was lying on the bed.
"Mu ......" Lin Ya approached Mu Yan's bed, and his sudden visit also made Mu Yan a little surprised.
"You...... Are you okay......" Lin Ya asked, he felt that Mu Yan's spirit was a little trance, and his face was not very good. He heard Shatun say that Mu Yan had been an orphan since he was a child, and no one took care of him, which was why he couldn't wait to come to Mu Yan.
"I'm fine, just a little dizzy. Mu Yan took Lin Ya and sat up.
He habitually looked out the window. Last night's snow had almost melted, but traces of snow were still clearly visible.
"It's snowing, no wonder it's so cold. Mu Yan looked out the window blankly, and he was already thinner, and he looked even weaker. His hair was disheveled, and he didn't look energetic.
"Mu ...... I'm leaving......" Lin Ya didn't know what to say, hesitated for a moment, and still told Mu Yan the news.
"The world has become a mystery to me. Lin Ya continued: "I don't want to die in vain. ”
Mu Yan was stunned for a moment, but he shook his head: "They won't let you go so easily." ”
"Why?"
"You don't even know what they want you to do?"
“......”
Lin Ya was able to come, and Mu Yan was a little happier. However, Lin Ya's words surprised him. Lin Ya wouldn't be stupid, he didn't even know why the barbarians saved him, right?
Lin Ya wants to leave, how easy is it?
Mu Yan smiled bitterly, and untied the seal tendon with healing herbs tied around his waist, revealing the six-pack abs that had been deflated.
"I'm hungry, go buy something to eat. ”
......
"What?" The fat fourth man of the Neier clan frowned, and hammered the snakeskin soft bag in front of him with his hand: "It won't be...... That kid that day!"
Sevia was silent. Although he didn't answer directly, he actually had the answer in his heart.
Most of the hunters sleep in the open and do not repair their hair for a long time. Short-haired hunters are already few and far between, let alone ...... That guy has black hair!
Black hair, inch head, black leopard skin soft armor...... That's all Seville heard from Myersna about the missing men.
"It shouldn't be wrong...... Sevia thought, frowning as well. He and the fourth child didn't have to communicate, they both knew what the other party was going to say: that little guy was with the barbarians, and they almost killed him!
Lynn Ya!
Sevia thought to herself: What a hard winter......
At the same time, Kediwen held a meeting of tribal hunters in his home, and the old captain and others came to the meeting.
"Kediwen, it's not that I don't want to take them in, but our winter reserves haven't been prepared yet, and there are still many hunters who don't have winter equipment!" said a red-faced middle-aged man, who seemed dissatisfied with Kedivan's decision.
"West, the caravan will arrive tomorrow, and we can exchange it for prey. An old hunter said slowly.
"But we don't seem to have much of prey left. It was old Jones, who was also the keeper of the warehouse, and he was also the mentor of the new hunter: "Have you forgotten? The weather suddenly warmed up two days ago, and several deer stinked in the warehouse. ”
"Besides, the hunter tribe has not interacted with each other for more than ten years, so I'm afraid it will cause other disasters......" West slowed down his tone when he saw so many people supporting him.
Kediwen looked at the old captain and wanted him to give his advice. But the old captain just lowered his head and didn't say anything, as if he was asleep.
Kediwen sighed, waved his hand, and stood up.
"Don't make any noise, I'll say a few words. As he spoke, he glanced to the side and saw that the old captain still didn't look up.
"I understand that you don't understand why you don't want to take them in. Kedivan looked at the attentive hunters and continued, "But I have a reason to take them in, and if I don't take them in, it will ...... will ......"
"What will be?" asked several hunters in unison
"It will cause the extinction of the hunters!"
......
"Is it decided?"
"Well, I'm going to go to the barbarians anyway. ”
"What is the reason? How do you explain it to the Great Elder......
"Stop, I feel his anger getting smaller and smaller......"
