Chapter 212: Parting
Half a year later.
Ye Xi sat cross-legged on the roof of the small observation building, looking into the distance, playing the bone flute.
The sound of the flute is melodious and reverberates. The sound of the flute was originally a continuous sound, but under Ye Xi's playing, it was reminiscent of the surging long river, the vast grassland and the rolling galaxy.
A pair of black pupils looked fixedly into the distance, clearly reflecting the outline of the snow-capped mountains.
The sun is shining, and the snow on the snow-capped mountains exudes a white glow, which is particularly holy against the light blue sky. A majestic goshawk flapped its wings and flew past the top of the snowy mountain, never to be seen again.
At the end of the song, Ye Xi put down the bone flute.
The rainy season is over, and the dry season of the year has arrived. Tushan is now getting stronger and stronger, and has become a tribe that even Kurosawa cannot ignore, and the promise of sending salt every year automatically dissipates.
The feelings between the Aphid Tribe, the Ye tribe and Tu Shan are getting deeper and deeper, forming a triangular alliance headed by Tu Shan, and the security between the three tribes is more guaranteed.
Ye Xi jumped off the tower, walked to the hillside, and walked on the grass of the valley.
There were many people in the valley, most of whom were slave girls who took care of their children. They either take a walk with a crying baby or escort a child who is more than a year old and is wobbly walking.
Tu Shan captured a lot of female slaves, because of Tu Shan's policy, female slaves are desperately giving birth to children, so there are many newborns in the past two years, and the children born to the first batch of female slaves of the Tu tribe are almost two years old.
The status of these children born to female slaves is not as good as that of ordinary Tushan children, and most of them do not know who their father is, and they are raised by the tribe collectively. Although the treatment is not as good as that of children born and raised by their partners, it can also ensure that they will not starve to death.
And their future honor and dignity will have to be won by themselves.
The valley is also full of running brown bears, wrinkled eight-legged insects and dinosaurs. These are all deed-signed and will not hurt people, and they will take the initiative to avoid children when they see them.
Knock! Knock!
A large group of knights on war pets returned from hunting and ran in from the mouth of the valley.
Among them, the turquoise riding a giant bear ran the fastest, and when he saw Ye Xi's eyes lit up, he immediately drove the brown bear to run over.
The turquoise jumped down from the giant bear and greeted Ye Xi happily.
Ye Xi saw that the face of the giant bear seemed to have been stung by something, and several large bags were bulging, swollen and deformed, and he couldn't help asking: "What's wrong with your stupid melon?"
That's right, the bear of the Tungua family is named Dumb Gourd, because Turquoise says that it is stupid, and it also loves to eat a kind of melon fruit, which is very appropriate to call Dumb Gourd.
The dolphin laughed and kicked the giant bear: "This stupid fool, when you see the giant beehive in the pine forest and can't walk, you actually have the audacity to dig out the giant beehive, and you have suffered now, right?"
The giant bear screamed aggrievedly, and sat down with a body like Roshan.
Ye Xi raised his eyebrows: "Didn't you have the Shaling leaves given by the Ye tribe brothers, you shouldn't let the stupid melon be bitten, right?"
The turquoise laughed, leaned over and whispered: "This stupid fool actually secretly opened the cellar yesterday and ate dozens of catties of my jerky, so I deliberately wrapped the sand leaves in thick animal skin today to prevent the giant bees from smelling it!"
Ye Xi: "It's very painful to be stung by a giant bee, be careful that your stupid melon hates you." β
The Turk waved his hand nonchalantly: "It's not so smart......"
As soon as the words fell, the stupid melon-like body suddenly got up, and the big butt was facing the dolphin, and it ran away into the distance.
Dolphin: "......"
Ye Xi gloated: "Underestimate your stupid melon, right?"
With a bitter face, the turquoise chased after his war pet.
After the dolphin left, the warriors of the hunting team who were left behind also greeted Ye Xi one after another, and happily told him about today's harvest.
Ye Xi responded one by one, with a smile on his face.
Tu Shan now has more warriors, and the number of hunting teams has also doubled, and now as long as you are careful, basically no one will die in the hunting process, of course, injuries are inevitable.
After greeting the hunting party, the people of the hunting party ran away with their prey.
The valley is prosperous, full of laughter and laughter, two years of hard work, Tushan tribes are very different.
Ye Xi looked at the lively scene around him and a smile appeared on his face. When his gaze turned to Wu's stone house, his eyes froze slightly and froze.
Ye Xi clenched his fists, exhaled a long breath, and walked towards the stone house.
in a closed stone house.
Wu sat cross-legged on the stone platform with his eyes closed, and when he saw Ye Xi coming in, he opened his eyes and looked at him gently.
Ye Xi saluted, looked at the old-looking witch, opened his mouth, but his voice seemed to be stuck by something, and finally closed it again.
The candles flickered, and the atmosphere froze for a while.
Wu closed his eyes, and his voice was old: "You...... Want to get out of here?"
Ye Xi pursed his dry lips and said, "Yes." β
When he met Da Wu on the prairie, Ye Xi originally told Tu Shanwu that Ye Xi did not hide Da Wu's invitation.
Hearing Ye Xi's answer, Wu was silent for a long time and said, "Wait a few more days." β
Ye Xi bowed respectfully and exited the stone house.
A few days later, Wu sent people to call Ye Xi and gave him a bag of animal skins.
The animal skin bag was heavy, Ye Xi returned to his stone house and opened it, and found that it was full of bags of blessed dominoes, all kinds of dominoes, and the most precious pure-blooded beast bones were used.
Ye Xi's heart was sour, and his fingers tightly grasped the animal skin bag.
With so many blessing dominoes, the old man had to work day and night in the past two days to carve them.
............
Ye Xi didn't want to alarm the tribe, so he quietly prepared to pack his bags, but the matter of blessing dominoes somehow leaked out.
On the edge of Xingzao Lake, the cone pestered Ye Xi and kept asking: "Why did Wu give you so many dominoes?
Ye Xi pushed away the cone's head, feeling annoyed. I don't know how many waves of people have come to inquire.
Cone smiled and said: "If it's okay, don't hide it, just tell me! I'll tell you, I also want to go to the grassland to experience and strive to break through the second level!"
The cone's son Mudou was only a little bigger, but he already had the rogue demeanor of his father, holding Ye Xi's feet, and said vaguely: "Uncle Xi, say it, say it......"
Ye Xi sighed helplessly, picked up Xiao Douding, and finally told the truth: "It's not to go to the grassland to practice, I'm planning to cross the snow mountain, leave the Black Ridge Mountains, and go farther away." β
There was silence in his answer.
The smile on his face vanished, and after a long time, he asked, "Are you scaring me? β
Ye Xi looked at him and shook his head.
After getting Ye Xi's answer, the six gods went back without a master, and even forgot about their son, and immediately told the entire tribe the news.
This news was like a boulder smashing through the calm of Tu Mountain, no, it should be said that a meteor fell on the head.
Everyone was stunned.
You must know that outside the Black Ridge Mountains is very dangerous, and over the years, even the Black Ze tribe has rarely dared to go out.
And there are very few soldiers who go out and return safely. The warriors who have gone outside and returned are all plated with a mysterious golden light, which has been passed down from generation to generation and has become the legend of their respective tribes - which shows how dangerous it is outside.
From the chieftain to the pheasant, they all took turns to persuade Ye Xi. Ye Xi's ears have not been quiet for a moment since that day, and he has been bombarded.
Everyone persuaded for a long time, and when they saw that they really couldn't persuade Ye Xi, they finally relented, but they learned that Ye Xi didn't even want to bring Jiaojiao, and they all fried the pot, so they must let Ye Xi bring Jiaojiao with them.
Helplessly, once Ye Xi made up his mind, he was very firm, and he didn't eat soft and hard. The people of the Ren tribe said that they had dry saliva, and if they didn't bring it, they didn't bring it.
Seeing that he really couldn't persuade him, the chief sighed and said, let him wait.
I waited for a week.
A week later, the chief handed him a few things, and Ye Xi took them one by one.
The first to take it was a new bow.
The bow was snow-white, and the material used was not wood, but the bones of the camel beast. The camel beast was a pure-blooded beast, its bones were very tough, and it was very difficult to hunt, and he didn't know how his people hunted it.
Then it was the quiver. The quiver was filled with arrows, each of which was made of pure-blooded beast bones, and even the tail feathers were made of Luan bird feathers. The head is sharpened and punctures the skin when touched.
Then he received two new pairs of leather boots, one of which the chief told him to put on at once, and one in his bag to replace if the shoes were broken.
The last thing to receive was a beautifully crafted leather backpack with unusually fine stitching that was almost waterproof. It was full of notoginseng powder, flint, as well as dried meat and water bladders filled with the blood of ferocious beasts.
Ye Xi didn't say any words of thanks, just silently put it away.
It's finally time to part.
I don't want to be sad to part. The next day, when the red moon was just hidden, and the morning light had not yet appeared, Ye Xi carried a newly made bow and arrow, stepped on the newly changed leather boots, lifted the package, and quietly stepped out of the stone house.
Jiaojiao didn't follow out obediently because of Ye Xi's order, and coiled in the corner of the stone house, digging his head deep into his body, forming a ball, gradually getting tighter and tighter.
The sun had not yet risen, the earth was gray and silent, and the stone houses in the valley were like silent giants, and only the sparse chirping of insects and the rushing of the brook could be heard.
Ye Xi took one last look at the surroundings and the quiet stone houses, and finally stepped out of the valley by stepping on the stream.
And along the flowing stream, when he walked to the bottom of the hillside, Ye Xi finally couldn't help but glance back at the valley.
This glance made his heart tremble heavily.
I saw the mouth of the valley, and I don't know when I stood up and suppressed a large group of people, just standing there silently watching him. Even Wu came out dressed in sackcloth, and looked at him silently with a bone staff.
Everyone's eyes were red, their faces were stoic with their fists, and many female primitives desperately covered their mouths to prevent themselves from crying.
What is funny is that Xiaohua actually tiptoed behind him, and when she saw him looking back, she immediately closed her mouth and rooted her roots in the soil, as if to say that she was just an ordinary flower, don't care.
Seeing Ye Xi turn around, everyone at the mouth of the valley waved vigorously.
Cone clasped his hands together and yelled hoarsely: "Ye Xi, go, we're waiting for you hereβ"
Ye Xi breathed a little, forced himself to turn back, waved his hand in a chic manner, and strode towards the direction of the snow mountain.
Since then, the sky has been high.
The blade refers to the end of the world.
