Chapter 956: Divergence
Five years later.
A hooded, black-robed man struck his way through the tundra, through the Great Stone Ruins, and across the desert, beyond the clan's domain.
He lifted his hand and gently lifted the fishskin hood with the hand that had a missing thumb.
The delicate face is exposed to the sun and dry wind and sand.
He took out a cold silkworm king's eyeball and put it in front of his right eye, his left eye narrowed slightly, and his right eye looked firmly in the direction of the clan through the silkworm king's eyeball. After a while, the corners of his lips were slightly hooked, revealing a faint smile with a bloody breath.
......
Bone tower.
Da Yuanwu sat cross-legged on the ground, his face facing the bone wall in front of him. The little squirrel, with its big fluffy tail, squatted quietly on his shoulder.
On this white bone wall, there seems to be an invisible person carving words with a hot carving knife.
Snort, the bone wall was burned, and the blackened and concave square words continued to appear on the wall, and each word was accompanied by a wisp of white smoke floating up, which was very hot to look at.
The text was indeed very hot, and the little squirrel's tail had accidentally swept over them, and as a result, the fur on the tail was scorched, and the little squirrel squeaked and hugged his tail tightly.
"βIf the Great Yuan Wu prepares to counterattack, my side can move at any time. β
The last line of writing on the bone wall says so.
Da Yuan Wu was silent for a while, stretched out his wrinkled fingers, and began to write on the bone wall in the air.
There was no trace on the bone wall, and his writing appeared in the distant Xicheng on the seashore in the Eastern Continent.
In the past three years, Da Yuan Wu and Ye Xi have been in contact with witchcraft, and for this reason, Da Yuan Wu also specially learned Xicheng script from Xicheng people to facilitate communication between the two sides.
In addition to exchanging information about the sea of fierce beasts, the two also often discussed witchcraft, and under the collision of ideas, many practical new witchcraft were born. The old and the young can be said to get along very well in the air, and the two sides seem to be masters and apprentices, and they seem to be friends who have forgotten their years.
However, the two were at odds when it came to fighting the Boss Beast.
Ye Xi thought that the time was ripe and strongly advocated a counteroffensive. And Da Yuanwu thinks that it is safer to wait a few more years, when Ye Xi becomes the ancestral witch, and then start the counteroffensive.
The situation has changed a lot over the years.
The super tribe gradually realized the benefits of tempering in the Sea of Fierce Beasts, and successively increased their investment in combat power, and without Ye Xi's lobbying, more and more tribal warriors were sent here, and finally even Wu was sent over.
The substitute larvae, which once gave the clan people a great headache, has been completely eliminated and turned into history with the efforts of everyone. In addition to this, they also eliminated a leader beast called the cave bat.
Of the thirty-seven species, there are now only thirty-five species left.
The leader beasts were frightened and slowed down their offensive, and the frequency of the fierce beast tide was greatly reduced, and they only came once in half a year. Some of the leader beast turtles shrank and no longer appeared, like a giant chapter in the dry land, which had not emerged for a year.
Ye Xi believes that the point of counteroffensive has arrived.
After so many years of running-in, all super tribes can already twist into a rope with the clan and cooperate with each other to fight. The twelve clans plus the eight super tribes, plus the energy of the last seal of the ancestral witch bone staff, were enough to directly kill the leader beast's lair.
Even if you can't destroy all the boss beasts, it's good to be able to kill half or even a third.
The rest of the leader beasts will inevitably be frightened, and they will easily not have the idea of attacking humans.
But Da Yuan Wu wanted to be safe.
It's not that he doesn't want to fight back.
He just thinks that even if the counteroffensive can gain the upper hand now, their side will inevitably suffer heavy losses. It's better to wait a few more years, and when Ye Xi becomes an ancestral witch, they will be more sure, and then completely destroy the leader beast.
After Da Yuanwu finished writing, the bone wall did not respond for a long time.
Finally, a line of words appears on the bone wall.
I respect your decision and hope that you will consider my opinion again. β
The magical power that enveloped the bone wall dissipated, and the bone wall cooled down little by little.
End of exchange.
Da Yuan Wu sighed and stood up with his bone staff.
He walked barefoot and slowly walked to the bone platform.
The bitter wind in the sky blew the white hair, and even the robes were hunting.
The squirrel on its shoulders was blown into a skinny mouse with fur in the wind, its eyes narrowed, its paws hooked into the robe of the Great Yuan Wu, and crawled into the hem of his robe.
The Great Yuan Wu looked down.
He saw clansmen and tribesmen talking together, wrestling, laughing, and sharing food.
It was a scenario he had never thought of before.
It turns out that one day the clan and the tribe will break the long-standing barrier and be able to fight side by side.
In the sky, gray thorn finches flew down in a long line.
Each thorn finch carries a bulging package on its back, which is full of Xicheng specialties. In the past two years, Xicheng has opened up a channel to connect the clans, and there will be a large flock of thorn finches coming and going every half month.
Those who stay in the Sea of Beasts can write down the things they want to buy on a slip of paper, attach the beast core, and let the thorn sparrow take it to Xicheng. The Thorn Sparrow will return to Xicheng with the beast core on their backs, and then bring what they want to buy here.
At first, there were only a few thousand thorn finch, but later, more and more people wanted to buy Xicheng's specialties, and the demand was increasing, and the number of thorn finches reached hundreds of thousands.
The thorn finch turned into a gray streamer and fell in a meandering way.
These thorn finches are all masters, even if they don't need to be piloted, they can find the location of the clan's Xicheng familiarly.
"Look, the thorn finch is coming!!"
"Ah, my iced sake has finally arrived! My tea has finally arrived, I want to boil milk tea and boil tea eggs!"
"My boots!
The thorn sparrow, which I had been waiting for for half a month, finally arrived.
Whether it's a clansman or a super tribesman, as long as they buy something, they are very excited. Before the thorn finches fell, they couldn't wait to surround them, making it three layers inside and three layers outside, and it was very lively.
The thorn finches, warmly welcomed, fluttered their wings and spun around in mid-air, unable to find a place to stay.
In the end, as usual, the Xicheng people controlled the situation.
"All backwards, don't squeeze!!Backwards!"
Chief Tushan stood on the highest point, drank to make the crowd retreat, and when the thorn finches fell, they were assigned positions according to the color of the thorn finch's foot rings and the note in the foot rings.
The Continental Bridge is crowded and mixed, and now there are twelve clans, eight super tribes, as well as Xicheng and some large tribes, and in order to facilitate the distribution of goods, each thorn finch is put on a foot ring.
The color of the ankle rings varies.
For example, the foot rings responsible for delivering goods to the Eryang tribe are vermilion, the ochre red foot rings for the Tanuki clan, the Cang clan is cyan, and the Xicheng clan is grass green foot rings.
The other thorn finches in the color of the ankle rings flew away, and the thorn finches with the cyan and grass green ankle rings stayed.
The man who knew Xicheng began to take the slip of paper stuffed in the ankle ring and read the words on it aloud.
"Kei! A stack of fire cakes, two pairs of python leather boots, a box of frozen dumplings, two bottles of Huoquan wineββ! Kei!
"Hey, I'm here!"
A strong man named Kei happily emerged from the crowd and shouted loudly to get his belongings from the package.
The illiterate people around waited with their eyes open, listened carefully with their ears pricked up, and when they heard their names, they happily came up and took their own things.
Kei happily hugged his things.
As he walked, he poured two sips of Huoquan wine, stuffed the Huoquan wine bag into his arms, and opened a cold stone box.
The bottom of the stone box is painted with cold witch patterns, which can preserve the food inside, and the dumplings wrapped in Xicheng are not rotten and spoiled at all when they are sent to the Sea of Fierce Beasts, as long as they are boiled in boiling water, they can be eaten.
But because it was made by Wu himself, this stone box is the most expensive of all.
