Chapter 238: The Road to Convenience
People finally began to appear in the deep mountains, and Cao Zinuo also exhaled slightly, in fact, he didn't know where he was until now.
In later generations, the northeast was very large, and the surrounding mountains were also extremely extended, and the Jurchens of this era were adjacent to the Goryeo clan, according to the general direction, Cao Zinuo could be sure that he was about the generation of Changbai Mountain, but from the northeast to the Korean side of Goryeo, I don't know how many mountains there are.
Therefore, after walking for more than ten days, Cao Zinuo can no longer tell where he is, you must know that the Jurchens at this time have no fixed habitat, although the white mountains and black waters roughly refer to the northeast, but in fact, the Jurchens are a swimming people, and they migrate and live completely according to the external environment.
In this deep mountain, the survival materials of the Jurchen people are almost entirely concentrated in hunting and digging ginseng, while the Jurchens do not produce, let alone know anything about renewable resources, they only know where there is more prey, and where ginseng is good to dig.
At this time, the land of the Central Plains happened to be the beginning of spring, but the land of Liaodong was icy and snowy, and the Jurchens were naturally drilled in the most ancient and barren deep mountains and old forests.
Yes, the ice and snow into the most ancient and barren deep mountains, this is the Jurchen way of living at this time, it stands to reason that this kind of weather is naturally the deeper the mountains the more difficult it is to live, but in fact, the Jurchen can only have hope of living in the deepest mountains.
Liaodong in this world is still the territory of the Liao State, and the Liao State is also a nomadic people, although it occupies the smoke clouds. Although the civilization has been infinitely close to the Han nation. But the Khitan are still a people on horseback after all. In the autumn, this people will also go south to harvest grass grains, because they need food to survive the winter.
At this time, it was spring, and after a winter, the grain that was snatched from the southern Song Kingdom in the autumn had been consumed, but in the spring, the war horses that had just passed the winter were not suitable for fighting, and the Khitan could not continue to loot in the south. In addition, the Han people of the Song Kingdom in the south have no surplus grain for the Khitan people to rob in this season, so the Khitan people are also in hunger and cold at this time, in this case, the other nomads living in the Khitan territory are not to mention that hunting, who dares to grab prey with the Khitan people at this time will wait to be wiped out.
Therefore, in this season, the Jurchens, who can only ride horses and fight like the Khitan, can only go to the deep mountains and old forests, and the deeper the better, because the deeper it is, the less people will grab prey with the Jurchens.
This is an act of God. It is a natural disaster that no one can avoid, no matter how wise the emperor is. The agricultural foundation of this era determined that what was grown on the earth could not support so many people, and it also determined that barbarism and civilization must collide.
Cao Zinuo walked in the snow step by step, it is his internal force, these days he is too lazy to do anything to step on the snow without a trace, that light work is not difficult for him, but it consumes internal strength, and this snow mountain does not know how big the road is, a few days down, he has to fight against the cold, and from time to time to fight with the beasts in the mountains, the most important thing is that he has to search for prey, although there is food in the storage ring, but people need cooked food after all, those dry food occasionally eat it doesn't matter, but eating for a long time will make people not concentrate enough.
In a word, Cao Zinuo felt tired, extreme tiredness, not physically, but mentally.
It is also this feeling that makes Cao Zinuo more and more amazed at the strength of the female realism, the soldiers trained in this environment, but it is impossible to practice any martial arts or military training, Cao Zinuo once watched a training video about the British Airborne Special Service, which seems to have a kind of death training, that is, marching alone in the ice and snow, and every year this kind of training will die.
This is also one of the reasons why the British special forces are among the best in the world, but, compared with the current Jurchens, the British airborne special service is simply a joke, after all, the so-called death training is only a few days at most, and they also have equipment that is armed to the teeth, not to mention that the food and drink on weekdays can be called luxurious.
However, at this time, the Jurchens were living a hungry and full life, coupled with the hellish environment outside, to put it mildly, the Jurchens who could survive, even a woman, were terrible to the extreme.
Calculate that the Jurchen is terrible at this time, but Cao Zinuo's heart is constantly weighing how to implement the strategy of pulling out the seedlings for the Jurchens, to what extent, to what extent, not too strong, otherwise the Jurchens will break out and destroy the Khitan, then Qiao Feng will have to find himself desperately, of course, he can't be too weak, otherwise the Khitan will not look at the Jurchens, let alone form an alliance with the Great Song Dynasty.
Climbing a mountain peak with light skills, Cao Zinuo exhaled slightly, the reason why he usually doesn't use light skills in this life, in this deep mountain, I don't know how many ravines and peaks there are, but it is far more difficult to perform light skills than usual, and it consumes more internal strength, but it has to be performed.
The endless snow forest appeared in Cao Zinuo's line of sight, but it was not too tight, there seemed to be a valley below, but there were many places where the ugly and hideous ground was exposed, and there seemed to be a small river in the depths of the valley.
Cao Zinuo's eyes lit up, although the river can be heated into water by ice and snow in this icy and snowy land, but thinking about the river is still an important basis for the Jurchens to choose their tribes to station.
Cao Zinuo's gaze swept over and turned along the river, when suddenly, a terrifying roar came from a jungle in the distance.
This voice gives people an extremely terrifying feeling, but it carries a kind of majesty, but it seems to have suffered a huge trauma, and in fear and resistance, the most important thing, this voice reminds Cao Zinuo of an animal, a tiger.
What other animals can hurt a tiger in this jungle, Cao Zinuo's eyes were clear, he felt that the Jurchen he wanted was about not far away, and the next second Cao Zinuo's figure turned into a streamer and crossed the sky, he didn't use light skills because he didn't want to waste his internal strength, but also because he was too lazy to perform light skills, but it was not that he couldn't do it, in fact, more than a hundred years of internal force, even if it was not replenished, it could support ten days and half a month.
From the mountain peak to the jungle, extremely far away, Cao Zinuo's figure magically drew dozens of zhang in the air, but it was no different from short-distance flying, and after landing, it did not leave the slightest trace on the snow, and took off again, and after a few vertical jumps, it was already in the jungle.
In the dense forest, there was an unusually fierce battle taking place at this time, and the direction of the battle was a group of elite savages and a hideous and terrifying beast.
Cao Zinuo listened to the voice of a tiger, but in fact, although this beast looked like a tiger, it was not a tiger, because this beast was standing on a big tree at this time.
At this time, the beast seemed to have been wounded, half of his body was stained red with blood, standing on the tree, the beast stared at the humans below and roared continuously, and from time to time it was about to jump towards the branches outside, as if trying to escape, however, the creatures below who looked like wild men were each holding a bow.
The bow was rudimentary, looking like it was made of the horns of a beast and the tendons of a beast, and the arrows were equally rudimentary, with the teeth of the beast tied to the straight poles.
It's just that these bows, which are extremely rudimentary and almost unweaponized, are extremely powerful in the hands of those savages, and every time the beasts in the trees try to escape, they are shot back by these savages with arrows.
The shot was extremely effective, although it was a shot of countless people together, but they all cooperated with each other, the beast's eyes, throat, lower abdomen, and even excretory mouth were all targets, and this level of shooting was that no matter how agile the beast was, it couldn't dodge, and it couldn't escape.
Therefore, the beast could only shrink on the tree, but, in the same way, the beast shrank on the tree like this, and there were branches on all sides, and the wild people below could not help the beast.
It was a scene of confrontation.
When Cao Zinuo arrived, he saw the scene in front of him, a beast that looked like a big cat was standing on a big tree, and below it was a group of wild men with simple bows and arrows.
Whether it was a human or a beast, Cao Zinuo was stunned for a long time.
Cao Zinuo couldn't recognize this beast to the truth, in Cao Zinuo's memory, the only big cats that could climb trees were leopards and jaguars, but not to mention that those two creatures didn't live in Asia at all, and they didn't look like them, no matter how they looked at the creatures in front of them, they looked like extra-large cats, but the two teeth in the mouth were too sharp, and the body was too thick, especially the two forelimbs, which were simply stout.
The most important thing is that this guy gives people a feeling, terrifying, hideous, these are pediatrics, this guy gives people the most intuitive feeling is danger, just like the hell monster that came out of the mythical story, I am afraid that children can faint directly when they see this creature.
Cao Zinuo felt that his world was a little crazy, he suddenly wanted to ask whether these plots in the space were real or false, the scene in front of him was really a bit of a contradiction, although Cao Zinuo was not a biologist, but he dared to bet with his head that this thing in front of him was by no means any kind of creature that survived in the later generations, and it was definitely impossible to be any kind of creature that existed in the Middle Ages of the Song Dynasty.
This is supposed to belong to the ancient era, a creature of the same era as the dinosaurs.
greeted the space fiercely, but Cao Zinuo's eyes were fixed on the creature, but the appearance of this creature made Cao Zinuo have some changes in his original plan, and perhaps, he was able to change the trust of the Jurchens.
The figure moved, and in the next second, Cao Zinuo jumped onto the big tree where the creature was, its speed was so fast and its movements were so agile that even the savage archers below didn't react.
As soon as Cao Zinuo landed on the big tree, the creature had already turned around and roared suddenly.
In the eyes of this creature, Cao Zinuo is no different from those savages below, as for clothes, language or whatnot, the beasts are not so complicated, and the shape of Cao Zinuo in the eyes of the beasts and the savages below are the same species. (To be continued......)
