Chapter XXXVIII
All the way to the west, a group of eight people quickly retreated according to the predetermined retreat route, at this time the sky had obviously darkened, once night, they were in the wild, the possibility of encountering a beast attack would increase significantly.
Although according to their current strength, they don't need to be afraid of most of the beasts, but once they collide, it is also very troublesome, and they have to bear the risk of injury, so with a mentality of avoiding it as much as possible, everyone is constantly speeding up their retreat.
"Patriarch, this way!"
A figure in the distance was waving at them, and the dim environment in the woods made Luo Ji unable to see the other party's face clearly, but he could hear the other party's voice, it was Luo Jin who was waiting to answer them.
After the two sides converged, under the leadership of Luo Jin, they walked through the layers of woods, and at the moment when the warm fire light reflected on their faces, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, they arrived, and what was in front of them at this moment was the temporary camp that had just been set up today!
Luo Ji has said before that in the game, there is a group of beasts that will grab resources while building a branch city next to your main city, and after building it, they will condemn you for being too close to them, that's right, he wants to be a beast this time!
Of course, it is not enough to build a branch city, after all, he does not have so many resources and manpower to invest in the construction of a branch city, and now he just plans to build a temporary camp similar to an outpost here, otherwise after one wave of harassment every day, they will have to rush back to the Spiegel tribe overnight to rest, and then run over the next day to carry out a second wave of harassment? Running back and forth like this, I felt like I was going to run to death.
Therefore, at that time, while Luo Ji took seven wolf warriors to carry out harassment operations, he also sent three other warriors from the tribe to rush here with the resources and food they needed to set up a temporary camp as their front-line stronghold for a period of time in the future.
And Zhao Pan, the general who defended the city, took the remaining seven tribal warriors to garrison the Spiegel tribe to ensure the safety of the tribe, otherwise, Luo Ji would not be able to leave his main city alone, so he could fight harassment with other tribes here with peace of mind.
However, it cannot be denied that this area is indeed good, surrounded by forest areas, there is naturally no shortage of timber resources, and there are white radishes nearby that can be dug, that is to say, there are crop resources, and the distance between the Spiegel tribe is also moderate, and they can support each other at critical moments, and it is indeed a good location to build a branch city.
I saw that five or six tents had been set up in the camp at this time, and a simple stone stove had been made in the middle, and the stone pot erected on top of it was boiling bone broth.
Smelling the aroma of bone broth coming out of the cracks in the lid of the pot, Luo Ji's stomach suddenly screamed angrily, and then he quickly said as if he remembered something, "By the way, there are white radishes around here, right?" Luo Jin, you go dig a few of them. ”
"Okay." After answering, it didn't take long for Luo Jin to come back with four or five white radish, and the efficiency was quite high.
White radish, although everyone in the Spiegel tribe has seen it, but it is the first time to eat it, with Luo Ji's movements, one by one curious eyes have been cast over, and at the same time, there is a little more expectation in their eyes.
Luo Ji, who has long been accustomed to his identity as the patriarch, is obviously accustomed to it, and at the moment, there is nothing to pay attention to outside, so he patted the soil on these white radish, and then rubbed it clean in the nearby snow, cut it into small pieces and threw it directly into the stone pot where the bone broth was boiling.
Time passed minute by minute, although Luo Yong and Luo Jin were chatting now, they all looked absent-minded, their eyes glanced at the pot from time to time, and it was obvious what they were thinking about in their minds.
After estimating that the time was almost up, Luo Ji lifted the wooden board that was used as the lid of the pot, and a strong aroma unique to bone broth suddenly came to his nose, frantically stimulating the hungry people.
"Don't be stupid and watch, let's eat it all."
This pot of radish bone broth was simply divided, and everyone who couldn't wait for a long time was not afraid of being hot, and they started one after another, and when they tasted the taste, they were all bright.
The bone broth is still the same bone broth, but it seems that because of the white radish, this pot of bone broth is a little less greasy, and I feel a lot more comfortable when I drink it in my stomach, and at the same time, the refreshing taste of the white radish is also a novelty for everyone.
Compared with Luo Yong and others who ate white radish for the first time, Luo Ji is obviously much calmer, he used to eat a lot in winter, and when he eats it in his mouth, it tastes like white radish, what can he think? If I had to say, it was, "It seems a little unflavorful......
After dinner, after a simple assignment of people to take turns keeping vigil, he retracted into his tent early and went to bed after a tiring day.
At the same time, on the other side, as the tribe that had just been attacked before sunset, the atmosphere in the camp was obviously depressed, and the young man who had been inseparable from Rayong before had a solemn face at this moment.
"How many people were injured in the tribe?" Looking at the tribesman who had walked towards him after settling the wounded, the young man spoke in a deep voice.
"Eighteen people." When the number was reported, the man's tone could be said to be extremely harsh, "Four of them are very badly injured, probably, probably, probably......"
Maybe there was no help, he couldn't say it, but the young man obviously knew the answer, and then rubbed his eyebrows vigorously.
"The weapons in the hands of those attackers are too powerful for the warriors of the tribe to parry."
The young man nodded in agreement, "Do you see exactly what the weapon is in their hands?" ”
"It seems to have put a stone on a stick......" When he said this, there was a sense of uncertainty in his tone, after all, in his common sense, how could such a heavy stone be placed on a round wooden stick?
The young man who heard this nodded again, at that time, although his attention was basically focused on the battle with Rayong, he also had a little impression of the weapon in the hand of the wolf warrior, "Tell someone to find some stones and sticks." ”
"Chief, are you trying to ......?"
"Let's try it first." When he said this, the young man's face showed a hint of maturity that did not match his current age, "The other party's weapons are more powerful than ours, if you want to fight them, you must at least get the same weapon as them first!" ”
