Chapter 58: Raindrops
Bang.
A bloodstained object fell to the ground.
Ye Xi jumped off Xiaoyi's back and bent down to pick it up.
But it turned out to be a palm-sized, crystal clear, beautiful gem with a mysterious blue luster.
Kela.
Ye Xi didn't have time to take a closer look at this gem, and found that there was a movement at the stone pile.
Ye Xi was startled, for fear that this creature would awaken, so he hurriedly jumped on Xiao Yi, and before he could drive Xiao Yi away, he saw that cracks began to appear on the stone wall of the stone pile.
Ye Xi patted Xiao Yi's head and motioned for it to leave quickly. He had only run a few steps when he heard a crackling crash from behind him.
Ye Xi turned his head to look, only to see that the stone pile was instantly cracked into pieces of rock, and it was shattered to the ground.
This...... Ye Xi looked at the gravel in this place and was dumbfounded.
"Whew!"
Xiao Yixiaote couldn't stop yelling at the pile of rocks, and Jiaojiao kept hissing anxiously.
Ye Xi looked down at the gem in his palm, could it be because he took it out, so the stone pile was broken?
Ye Xi wrapped it in animal skin and wiped the blood stains off its surface.
This thing is even more beautiful when wiped clean, like a pool of clear water, with a light blue glow inside, which makes people love it at first sight.
If the pile of rocks is an unknown creature, then the gem is most likely a ferocious core.
But the pure-blooded beast core he possessed was cyan, only the size of a date, and this beast core was as big as a palm, and it was as clear as the crystal with the highest purity.
There is so much difference between the two...... Ye Xi was a little suspicious that it wasn't.
Babbling.
There was a loud noise in the jungle in the distance.
Ye Xi suddenly came back to his senses, and after calming the restless Xiaoyi, he patted its head and motioned it to go quickly.
There was such a big movement here just now, it might attract some creatures to come over, and his current strength is not enough, so he can avoid it
The three beasts and one person quickly left here.
in the tribe.
"Ye Xi, come back so late today. At the tribal whistle, Greybeak greeted with a smile.
Ye Xi replied with a smile: "Delayed for a while." ”
Back in the clearing, Ye Xi turned over and jumped off Xiao Yi.
Seeing Pu Tai polishing his weapon, Ye Xi shouted: "Uncle Pu!"
Putai turned his head.
Ye Xi pointed to Xiao Yi Xiaote and said, "These two guys ran for a day today, and they were so hungry that they couldn't do it, so I'll leave it to you." ”
Now Ye Xi has slowly handed over Xiao Yixiaote to them, and often asked Pu Tai and Yong to feed them, and after a while, the two beasts have gradually become familiar with each other.
"Okay, here!"
Since Pu Tai and Yong knew that these two dinosaur beasts were trained for them, they were very active in feeding and the like, for fear that Ye Xi would spend too much energy for them.
Ye Xi ran to Xiaotu Mountain.
He wanted to see how his sweet potatoes were growing.
Halfway up the mountain, a small terraced field has been cultivated, which is not large and only three meters wide at its widest point.
On the terraces, the sweet potato seedlings are verdant and green, swaying in the wind, and growing well.
The soil in the field was hoeed loose and soft, Ye Xi walked along the ridge, squatted on the ground and pulled the sweet potato seedlings, feeling that there were no pests before he was relieved.
There was a time when there were a lot of meat insects in the field, staring at the sweet potato seedlings to eat, which made Ye Xi's heart ache. Later, after a lot of pest control, the number of meat insects in the field decreased.
Tick.
A drop of water falls on the dry ridge and is immediately absorbed.
Ye Xi looked up in amazement.
But I didn't know when it started, and there was a faint dark cloud in the sky overhead.
Tick tock.
Immediately a few more drops of rain fell, quickly absorbed by the dry earth, losing their traces.
This is...... It's raining?
The rain was so light that the raindrops fell sparsely for a while, and then they stopped falling, and the thin dark clouds overhead immediately dispersed.
But Ye Xi knew that this was a teaser, predicting that the dry season was coming to an end and the rainy season was coming.
Although Ye Xi didn't feel how difficult the dry season was because of the abundant water storage in the Tushan tribe now, he also knew that the creatures of this land and the humans of other tribes had been suffering from water shortages.
This week, he saw at least a dozen rotting animal corpses in the jungle.
I heard that the struggle on the other side of the lake is becoming more and more fierce, and the creatures can't stand the drought and can't take care of the danger of the lake and run to drink water, and the creatures in the lake are constantly fed, and the lake water is almost red with blood.
Ye Xi returned to the foot of the mountain.
Many clansmen were discussing the light rain that had just fallen.
"The dry season is almost over, and this year has passed so fast, I don't even feel anything. ”
"Yes, I almost died of thirst in the dry season last year, and I counted the days on my fingers every day. ”
"Now that our tribe is not short of water, we are naturally not afraid of the dry season. ”
"I'm afraid the other tribes are already cheering, I heard that even the Kurosawa tribe is starting to run out of water, and they are going to take the risk to get water from the other side of the lake. ”
"I've heard about it, and it's said that a warrior died. ”
"Tsk, even the most powerful Kurosawa tribe is like this, I really can't think about how other tribes came over. ”
"Don't dare to think about it, you think about how our tribe came here last year, and how they came here now. ”
"Last year, our tribe died of thirst for five people......
As soon as these words came out, everyone was a little stunned, and there was even a centenarian among the five people, who was dying of thirst like this.
"Don't think about it, let's think about the great sacrifice of the clan in two days. ”
"Yes, it's time for a big sacrifice!" the crowd became excited.
"After this year's Great Sacrifice, our tribe estimates that there will be ten more warriors!"
"Hahaha, we snatched the fierce beast core of the Tu tribe, it is estimated that there are so many ten warriors!"
Everyone was getting happier and happier as they spoke, and their eyebrows were about to fly, looking forward to the great sacrifice in a few days.
Ye Xi smiled slightly, touched the things in the animal skin bag on his waist, and walked towards the cave.
The deepest part of the cave.
Ye Xi saluted Wu, took out the gem he got from the animal skin bag, and handed it to Wu: "Wu, can you help me see if this is the core of the beast?"
Wu saw this thing, his eyelids jumped, and he almost jumped off the stone platform, looking at the blazing light in his eyes, and said urgently: "Where did you get this thing?"
Ye Xi was startled, he had never seen Wu so excited!
"It was dug up from a dead, very strange creature. ”
Wu glanced at Ye Xi with strange eyes, lowered his head and rubbed it with his old hand, and said excitedly: "This is indeed a fierce beast core, and it may be higher than the level of the pure-blooded fierce beast core. ”
"Higher than the core level of a pure-blooded beast, I thought that a pure-blooded beast was the most powerful beast?" Ye Xi said curiously.
Wu smiled, his gaze cast to the void, and his eyes showed the light of memory: "Pure-blooded beasts are just a general term, in order to distinguish them from mixed-blood beasts. In fact, there is also a hierarchy among pure-blooded beasts. ”
"I don't know what the most powerful beasts are, but at least as far as I know, there are brute beasts above the pure-blooded beasts. ”
"I have had the pleasure of seeing a wild beast, a huge eagle that flies over the heads of our tribe with a terrifying aura that will make even the warriors bleed from their mouths and noses if it screams. ”
Ye Xi looked at the fierce beast core, felt a little dry in his mouth, and rolled his throat and said, "You mean...... This beast core may be a barbarian beast level beast core?"
"It's possible, but it's also possible that it's a special ordinary pure-blooded beast. The witch handed him back the beast core.
Ye Xi held the fierce beast core, the light flashed in his eyes, and he had a feeling that this fierce beast core was by no means ordinary.
Wu: "It's going to be the big sacrifice in a few days, are you going to become a warrior this year?"
"Yes, I think I'm ready. ”
Wu nodded, not stopping him, any reserve warrior was a qualified person to be awakened, regardless of age.
Looking at Ye Xi's immature face, Wu sighed: "...... Thirteen years old, I'm afraid you're the youngest warrior in our tribe in hundreds of years. ”
