Chapter 611: Prairie in the Night
As long as you are in contact with people, it is essential to introduce yourself no matter what.
But Li Chen's cultivation team is not a Martian after all, and many problems can be easily exposed in daily contact, and it used to be okay in a sparsely populated place like Geshan Village. Once in a densely populated area, cultural differences and some common-sense issues can easily expose them.
Just as Jiang Yun found out that Li Chen was wrong with them, these villagers can also find out.
So along the way, even if they find a place to rest, even if the place to rest is next to some villages, they will not enter those villages at all and intersect with the villagers in those villages.
It wasn't until the evening that it was dark again, and they arrived at a village again.
It was still Li Chen who took the lead and led the women directly over the village, and they stopped about a kilometer downstream of the village to set up camp.
"Master, why don't we go into the village and rest? In the past, when we hurried to Miyue City, we had to spend the night in the village, as long as we shared some Guyuan wood with them. Jiang Yun wanted to ask Li Chen this question all the way, but she didn't say it, and it wasn't until now that everyone completely stopped and entered today's rest time, and she dared to ask Li Chen her own questions.
Although Jiang Yun had only just learned a new footwork today, she was no longer as tired as she was yesterday, and Li Chen set up a tent with her.
"Because the world is different!" Li Chen said while propping up the pole, "We and them are two people who are almost impossible to intersect, and our various actions will only be strange and special in their eyes. If we command them to drive them as nobles, will you feel happy in your heart, Xiaoyun? ”
"No!" Jiang Yun shook her little head, she was originally from a 'lower people', so she naturally didn't want to see others afraid of her as soon as she stepped into the ranks of nobles.
"Do you think that Xiaoyun, if we treat them like you, they will feel that this is normal and not have doubts after we leave?" Li Chen continued.
"No!" Jiang Yun shook his little head again.
Li Chen clapped his hands after putting the tarpaulin of the tent and fixing it with rivets, "So, Xiaoyun, after becoming a cultivator, many times, before doing something, you must first consider what kind of consequences it will cause, if you don't want to bring unnecessary trouble to yourself in the future, then you must first learn to avoid risks. ”
"What's more, we are already cultivators now, and there is not much difference between living inside the wall and living outside the wall, because there are no demon beasts on this grassland." Li Chen rubbed Jiang Yun's head, and added another sentence in his heart, if there were, those villagers' only three-meter-high earthen walls would not be able to stop the demon beasts at all.
Moreover, during the two days of travel, Li Chen did not sense the existence of any spiritual veins under this grassland at all, even the mother river of the Martians beside them, the Geshan River.
Without the existence of spiritual veins, it was naturally impossible for any powerful demon beasts to survive here, because that would not be able to improve their cultivation at all. Most of the demon beasts should have made their homes on the long mountain range of Brother Mountain.
The six members of their cultivation team set up their tents, and after catching some hares, fresh fish and other prey, they began to light a fire to prepare for today's dinner.
This time their camp was set up on a flat riverbed, with no weeds or anything to obscure their view, and they could see the torches lit up the area in the village a kilometer away, and many large herds of cattle and sheep were moving outside the safe range where the fire could shine, and even on the other side of the river, there were many herbivores.
Perhaps it is the tradition of the villagers living in this area that they do not take advantage of this time to hunt the wild beasts that gather outside the village, and there are only some villagers with bows and arrows on some high watchtowers in the village to keep vigil, they are in case a wild beast has crossed the village and sneaked into the village.
Light can attract weak people who need shelter, and naturally it can attract powerful predators.
Many herbivores actually have a sharp decline in their vision at night, which is what we call night blindness, but the eyes of predators are extraordinarily focused, and they can easily spot prey hidden in the grass even at night, and get a sumptuous dinner for themselves.
Therefore, the fire of the village actually brings a certain sense of security to the herbivores to a certain extent, so many cattle and sheep will gather around the village.
Even some of the cattle were already moving outside the camp that Li Chen had set up, but since they were setting up camp on the riverbed and there was no pasture, those cattle were only moving on the riverbank. In addition, animals are inherently sensitive to breath, and they know that Li Chen's group of people is not easy to mess with, so they don't dare to get too close.
However, no matter how many torches are lit in the night, the night is still night, it is always synonymous with danger and fear, and all horrors and crises will not be dispelled by the slightest fire.
Herds of cattle and sheep seem to be resting quietly on the ground in the area belonging to their own tribe, or leisurely grazing on the weeds on the ground, only the vigilant clan leader looks around, scanning the surrounding grass with the help of the dim firelight.
Even so, however, it was not uncommon to hear the kind of screams of terror that were suddenly uttered in the darkness, and then a black shadow would slump in the grass where the fire could hardly shine, and in a flutter the nearby cattle and sheep would be frightened, and then the sound of wild beasts tearing flesh would come from the darkness.
In the darkness, such commotions would resound from time to time among the various ethnic groups, but these were minor commotions. Although darkness symbolizes fear and danger, it is for humans who have a continuation of civilization, and for those ordinary herbivore races, darkness is darkness and danger is danger, and the two cannot be confused.
Although they heard the terrifying sounds of the night, the intermittent commotion was not enough for them to choose to escape from the area where they felt reassured by the warm yellow light.
As long as they hadn't seen the thrill of their own kind of blood splashing on the verdant meadows, not many sheep or cattle would have made a big run in the dark night.
