Age of the Wild.

I don't know how many years ago.

It's been so long that I can't remember it clearly, and even Ye Bei has forgotten it.

It's just vaguely, I remember that there was such an era.

At that time, the sky was blue, white clouds, and a huge sun hung in the distance.

However, in that seemingly charming landscape, there is an endless danger hidden.

Birds and beasts of prey are everywhere.

There are elephants as tall as hills.

There are pythons that are several kilometers long.

There are eagles that can soar through the air, spread their wings, and cover the sky.

It was a world before the age of mythology.

in that era.

There are also some human beings who live.

Because there are giant beasts by the sea.

At that time, almost all human beings were squeezed into the middle of the continent, hiding in the most remote, barren, and barren places, where even some wild beasts on land did not want to go.

Among them, there is a village.

In the middle of the village, there are several sparse thatched huts, crisscrossed by them.

This small village.

Strictly speaking, it's a bottomless canyon.

On all sides are high mountains, high into the sky......

The human beings here, basically, from birth to landing, have never had the opportunity to get out of this canyon in their lifetime.

in the village.

There is a vacant lot.

The radius is less than five meters.

Every day, at a fixed time, there will be a number of people gathered in this open space.

Some of them were armed with weapons.

Some of them took the grain they had grown.

Some of them are holding some meat that they have hunted deep in the mountains.

They have their own unique language and can communicate without barriers.

Moreover.

Through these exchanges.

They are quick to trade what they have for what they lack.

This exchange.

There is no measure of this.

As long as everyone is satisfied.

And after the exchange, they went their separate ways, hunting for hunting, farming for farming, making weapons for making weapons, everything seemed to be in order, but it was always like this, year after year, day after day.

That day.

A teenager in a white shirt.

Carrying his hands on his back.

His steps were quiet.

The gaze is indifferent.

All the way from afar.

Let the mountains and the deep waters be as flat as they are before him.

All the fierce beasts, when they saw him, avoided him from a distance, and did not dare to approach at all.

No one knows how he got to this small village.

But......

The people in the village, after seeing this young man, were all stunned, and then looked at this foreign visitor with extremely surprised eyes.

That day.

The young man in the white shirt didn't stay long, he had experienced too much, but in this village, he looked around the scenery, engraved it a little in the long river of time, and wanted to leave.

Can......

It was the first time that there had been a visitor from another place in the village.

Those adults, just curious, didn't dare to approach the white-shirted boy at all from beginning to end.

However, in the village, there are some naughty children who have been watching the teenager from a distance, and when they saw that they wanted to leave, they ignored the obstruction of their parents, and with courage, they chased after him quickly.

"Brother, wait!"

A child shouted in a clear voice, in the village's unique language, but the boy could easily understand it.

"Brother, brother, I have something I want to ask you."

There are girls trotting.

He was dressed in animal skins.

As I ran, my clothes crackled on my body.

"Brother...... Wait for me, where are you from? ”

Soon.

A group of children surrounded the boy in the middle.

"Come back."

"What are you doing?"

"Don't go near strangers."

In the distance, the parents jumped to their feet in a hurry, shouting incessantly.

But the children, as if they had not heard, did not pay any attention to them.

As for the boy in the white shirt.

Only then did he slowly stop.

His gaze was indifferent.

A faint sweep over the group of children.

In his eyes, there was no sadness, no joy, and no emotion.

"What is the matter with you?"

He opened his mouth, speaking the language of the village, and was incredibly proficient, as if he had grown up in this village, without any communication barriers.

"Brother, you're from outside the mountains, right? Grandpa used to say that beyond the mountains is still mountains, endless, and there are no other human beings at all, but you are here...... Could it be that there are villages out there too? ”

A boy, blinking, asked curiously.

Distance.

When the parents heard this, they immediately fell silent.

It's all listening.

"Yes."

Young and concise in his answers.

"So, brother, the people outside are like you, wearing these strange clothes? And aren't they afraid of those monsters? A little girl spoke, her voice clear, full of yearning for the unknown outside world.

"It's different, everyone's different."

The boy replied.

It's just that this answer is beyond the comprehension of these children.

In the distance, the group of parents were even more confused.

"Brother, can you tell me what kind of world is out there?"

A little boy wiped a handful of snot, and his eyes were full of expectation.

"There are many small villages, small tribes like yours here."

The boy replied immediately.

At the beginning of the Age of the Savage.

He's been to a lot of places......

Humanity is scattered.

In many remote canyons, there are small villages.

Those villages, each with its own country, have a unique scenery.

"Really?" The boy jumped up: "Then, brother, can you get us out of here?" I want to go out and see. ”

When saying this.

In the boy's eyes, there was a touch of loneliness again.

"I heard my mother say that my father was too curious about the outside world, so he left the village, climbed one mountain after another, and finally didn't know where he went, over the years, many people in the village said that my father was dead, bitten to death by wild beasts, and said that there could be no other people behind the mountain!"

The boy muttered.

The boy listened quietly.

The gaze is flat and remains silent.

"Brother, you are from outside the mountain, can you send me some things from outside the mountain? If you can't go out, it's good to be able to see some. The little girl clasped her hands and blinked.

"Okay."

Hearing this, the boy moved.

He stretched out his white palm......

More than a dozen white shells appear in the palm of the hand.

Greeting the sun.

These shells, emitting a dazzling light, are like holy relics.

Puff, puff......

In the distance, some parents saw this, and even directly puffed and knelt down.

"Give."

Ye Bei stretched out his palm to the little girl.

The girl took it.

Then he ran away full of joy.

And the young man did not stay any longer, his eyes were broad, and he continued to travel through the scenery of this wild era.

……

Many years later.

By chance, the boy returned to the village where the shells had been given.

But it has already been discovered.

Between the mountains and the mountains, it has been opened.

Shells have become the currency used by human beings.

The little girl who took her shell is no longer there......

Her descendants built a big house.

The boy ......

It was Ye Bei.
