Chapter 358: The Vast Earth
This meal is a whole day.
Everyone ate with a round belly and had not eaten all the poisonous snakes.
In line with the principle of not wasting, the tribe finally peeled off the snake skin of the lower half of the snake man's body, and helped everyone sew it into a snake skin backpack, and everyone cut off the snake head and put it in the backpack, and continued to move forward with the bulging snake corpse.
The team walked eastward through the thick wreckage of the swollen forest, and walked for another two days before they could get out of the place completely.
Ahead are the towering mountains.
Ye Xi turned around.
The forest was razed to the ground, and as far as the eye could see, there was an endless stream of gray-green fragments and powder.
This catastrophe directed by him could not completely destroy the forest, and the seeds of the swelling fruit were scattered everywhere after this explosion, exceeding the original scope of the forest.
In a few days, new shoots will emerge, and in a few decades, there will be a much larger and denser expansive forest.
But that's none of their business.
Ye Xi retracted his thoughts and led the team to continue walking.
It was very difficult to find a suitable and safe place to live, and after studying the map with the chiefs, Ye Xi and the chiefs decided to bypass the endless swamp and the dangerous areas marked on the map, and go all the way to the east.
The whole team marched very slowly, there were many old people, women and children in the team, and there were many ordinary people who did not have war pets.
It took them more than ten days to climb over the mountains.
It's getting hotter.
The blazing sun shone hotly on the land through a faint yellow haze.
The earth was scorched by the sun, and the soles of the feet of people without leather boots were burned one by one, and they were trampled alive. The strong ultraviolet rays illuminated everyone's already dark skin, their lips were covered with dry skin, and beads of sweat rolled down their bodies, making their animal skin skirts stinky and rancid.
But the heat wasn't the hardest.
The primitive people living in this world have long been accustomed to fighting against the harsh natural environment, and they are also accustomed to fighting fierce insects and beasts, and their vitality is as tenacious as weeds in the cracks of stones.
But once hunger strikes, no matter how powerful people are, they can't hold on.
The feeling of burning stomach and lack of strength is enough to make people's eyes red.
The team hadn't found much food since they left the Expansive Forest, and the limited amount of food they had hunted couldn't fill the stomach of the entire team.
In the procession, a carnivorous dinosaur sits on its back with a family of cones.
Xiao Mudou leaned on Ling's arms, his face was red from the sun, his lips were white, he rubbed his stomach and said, "Eminem, I'm so hungry......"
Ling herself was very hungry, because of the shortage of food, and now the tribe has resumed the previous food supply system.
Food was provided first to the tribal warriors, then to the common people without mounts, then to the tribal manned mounts, and finally to them.
Ling is now supported by the snake meat she collected before, and she can't save her own food for them, because the tribe doesn't allow it.
Ling herself could starve, but she didn't want her son to be hungry like this, she gritted her teeth, she took out the last snake stem from her arms, sharpened the lower half with a stone knife and gave it to the herd beans, and put the upper half in her arms and hid it.
"Save a little and eat slowly. ”
After so many days, the snake meat had an indescribable rancid taste, but Xiao Mudou's eyes suddenly lit up, and he grabbed it tightly, and opened his mouth to face the snake's tail.
gnawing and gnawing, the tears of the little herd bean were like broken threads, rolling down.
When he lived in the Tushan Valley since he was sensible, where had he suffered this kind of hardship and this kind of hunger before.
Xiao Mudou wiped his tears with the back of his dirty little hand while crying, asked Eminem for a water bladder, and drank a stomach of water to make his stomach fuller before continuing to nibble on snake meat.
Fortunately, there are those burrowing rabbits who are good at digging wells, and the water is enough.
But people are hungry like this, and the war pets with big appetites are even more miserable.
The dinosaur that carried them was a delta running dragon with yellow-brown skin and a body length of more than six meters.
The carnivorous dinosaur, who was good at running, was now so heavy with hunger that he could no longer run, and he snorted from his nostrils as he walked.
It took two steps, and suddenly stared straight at the brown bear named Dumbmelon of the Dolphin House next to it, its eyes were red and red, and saliva and white dry saliva overflowed the corners of its mouth full of sharp teeth, and trickled down its rough skin.
"Roar!"
Benlong stopped, then opened his jaw and bit at the brown bear.
At that moment, the cone jumped on its head, grabbed the bone horns on the top of its head, and turned it back violently.
"Roaring ——!!"
The hungry dragon turned his head and roared at the cone.
It's so hungry.
The meat that the team had provided to it could not fill its stomach at all, and since yesterday it had tried to attack brown bears and even people three times and twice, and the cone had stopped it again and again.
This stop apparently angered the carnivorous dinosaur completely.
It shook its body wildly, slammed Ling and the mesdivia cone off its back, and then ran forward with a small stride, raising countless dust along the way.
The cone threw himself on the ground and caught his son and partner in time, and watched his war pet run farther and farther away with dust and sweat on his face.
Dinosaurs are wild and difficult to train, and even if they successfully conclude a contract, they may retaliate if they are starved.
He felt like he was about to lose his war pet.
In fact, it was not only his dinosaurs who rebelled, but also Pu Tai, Yong, and Mink, whose dinosaurs were almost unable to suppress them. On the contrary, brown bears and wrinkled opods that are not as strong as them are hard-working, and can endure hunger and fatigue to carry people on.
"Are you alright?"
Holding a child in his left hand, Shan Ye pulled the cone up with his right hand.
Because of this change, the Ye tribe, who was walking behind Tu Shan's team, passed by the side of the Cone family of three one after another.
"It's fine. ”
Cone smiled bitterly, pulled his partner and son up one by one, and led them to follow the group.
The people of the Ye tribe did not have mounts, and after so many days of trekking, they looked even more miserable than them.
They were covered in dust and sweat, the leaves on their bodies, their clothes and leaves curled up in the sun, the soles of their feet were rubbed bloody, they walked with a limp, and many of them had to support each other to keep up with the team.
The life that used to live in the giant luan tree, like an elf, can never be found again.
Now they walk on a wide, dry ancient waterway.
Although there is no drop of water to be found here, judging from the traces of erosion on the rock walls on both sides, there must have been a surging giant river here tens of thousands of years ago, even before the Phanerozoic.
This dry ancient river channel is really very vast, and more than 20,000 of them walk here, like a swarm of slow-moving ants, incomparably small.
And directly in front of them, you can see the majestic white snow-capped mountains.
The snow-capped white clouds and mist shimmered in the clouds, the peaks of the mountains reaching into the sky could not be seen at all, and the snow-capped mountains on the other side of the Black Ridge Mountains were like children compared to them, and even Mount Everest was just a small hill in front of them.
Although the majestic snow-capped mountains seem to be right in front of them, the team is actually thousands of miles away from them.
It's too vast and too vast outside.
Heaven and earth are vast.
When they leave their homes, they become a drop in the ocean.
