Chapter 233: The Cave Rabbit Man
Early the next morning.
Ye Xi was woken up by the incessant sound of birds outside the house.
At this time, the morning light was faintly bright, Ye Xi packed up his things and walked out of the stone house, only to see that on the towering tree not far away, two huge barbarian fierce birds stood among the green leaves, stretched their wings and led their necks to sing.
"Yo-"
The melodious chirping of birds in the distance of the cave reached into the sky, as if it were about to pierce the sky, and with each cry, the birds inhabited in the nearby forest followed suit.
"Chirp...... Whoops!"
The flock of bulky and huge moa on the ground ran over with their long legs, and as they ran, they quacked and screamed, and the sound was so rough that people almost wanted to cover their ears.
At this time, the sky was just slightly bright, and most of the people of the Gongtao tribe had already gotten up and were busy in the open space.
There are many two-wheeled carts parked in the open space, and the pottery workers are busy packing goods.
They carefully folded the sackcloth and folded it together, wrapped it in a thin animal skin, and then neatly stacked it in a stone box, and compacted it tightly with their hands before closing the lid. Finally, the stone box is firmly tied with thick hemp rope to ensure that the lid of the stone box will not be lifted halfway.
Most of the pottery was kept in large wooden boxes, which were covered with a thick, soft layer of animal skins, and then carefully placed in various pottery and filled the gaps with plenty of dried grass and leaves.
These packed wooden boxes and stone boxes are carried to the cart by a special person, and they must be firmly tied with hemp rope and rattan dozens of times so that they can be tightly fixed on the cart.
Today is the day of the caravan's departure.
As the main initiator of the caravan, the Gongtao tribe traded the most goods and had the most work to prepare.
Chief Gongtao was directing the clansmen to work, he quickly found Ye Xi, his eyes lit up, he walked over with a smile, and looked him up and down: "This dress really suits you very well." β
Yesterday in the pottery building, they also gave Ye Xi a large stone box, which contained a dark green linen cloth and a pair of freshly baked leather boots.
Ye Xi walked in the snow mountain for three months, the original pair has been worn out, the replacement pair is also a little worn, this pair of leather boots made by the Gongtao tribe for Ye Xi is very suitable, the skin used is still the skin of the beast, and it is not easy to break.
And this linen dress is also very much in line with Ye Xi's mind.
The linen clothes produced by the Gongtao tribe are woven by special plant fibers, and they are also soaked in various potions, which are not as easy to break as ordinary linen, and their strength is comparable to that of pure-blooded beast skins, and it is not easy to get dirty.
Ye Xi smiled and saluted slightly: "Thank you chief, for your trouble, Xi likes this dress very much." β
Not only is it comfortable, but this dress is also dark green, which is more conducive to hiding yourself in the forest and making it easier to walk outside.
Chief Gongtao said with a smile: "Ah Xi, you got up too early, the people of the tribes will not arrive until a while, you can go to sleep for a while and take care of your spirits." β
The corners of Ye Xi's mouth showed a hint of helplessness, and there were birds chirping everywhere in his ears, how could he sleep, and only the potters were used to it and felt nothing.
"No, it's enough spirit. β
At this time, Ye Xi caught the sound of dense insect wings flapping not far away, so he turned to look.
After a while, a large swarm of bright blue insects the size of a foal flew low through the jungle with their wings fluttering.
Each giant worm was stacked with tall packages on its back, and several warriors armed with spears sat on it.
These giant insects resemble both crickets and some cockroaches, covered with blue fluff, and as soon as they hit the ground, they lie quietly on the ground, motionless and extremely quiet.
The chief of Gongtao said to Ye Xi: "The people of the Yu tribe have arrived. β
The warriors of the sting tribe jumped from the giant worm, and the fourth-level warriors led by them had their faces painted with bright oil paint and a short hemp skirt around their bodies with great personality.
After throwing the spear to the clansmen, he came over and saluted the Gongtao chief respectfully: "The sting tribe has seen the Gongtao chieftain. β
The Gongtao tribe smiled and nodded, "You guys came early this year. β
Mantis Yu showed a wry smile: "I was late last year, but I don't dare this year." This time we set off from the tribe three days ago. β
The caravan departs on a fixed day every year, and leaves as soon as the sun reaches the highest place, and it never waits for anyone, and last year the stinging tribe came late and missed it.
Mantis feathers and the pottery chieftain talked, and the rest of the tribesmen carried the goods off the giant worm. The caravan didn't leave until noon, and they felt sorry for their pets and didn't want them to be burdened all the time.
These strange-looking giant insects lay on their stomachs without saying a word, very well-behaved and harmless.
A work-pottery child ran over curiously and wanted to reach out and touch it, but his father pulled it back, and rewarded him with a big chestnut.
The child's father murdered him: "What do you touch! The stinging insects of the stinging tribe are all highly poisonous! Don't touch them!"
The boy rubbed the back of his head, glanced at the stinger reluctantly, and was dragged away like a sack by his father.
At this moment, there was a muffled roar from the jungle in the distance.
There was a commotion among the stinging insects, and after a while a group of black-brown creatures that looked like giant Tibetan mastiffs rushed towards them.
These giant Tibetan mastiff-like creatures are the roaring beasts of the Roar Tribe, each the size of a scalper, covered in thick black and brown hair, and roaring in the sky as soon as they reach their destination, with a frighteningly fat throat.
"Roarβ"
The roar shook the heavens and the earth, the leaves rattled, and the adults hurriedly covered the ears of the children.
Seeing this, the two ferocious beasts of the Gongtao tribe were furious, and flew down from the trees to attack them, and the moa birds came running to kick them with their big feet.
The moa birds' legs were unusually strong, and they could kick the bones of the roaring beast with one kick, and when they saw so many moa birds running violently, the roaring beast retreated in fear, and the two barbarian fierce birds that wanted to roar but were afraid of the top of their heads could only lie on the ground pitifully, and no longer had the majestic appearance just now.
The people of the Roaring Tribe hurriedly jumped down and apologized.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, they love to roar......"
"Let's go back and teach them a good lesson, don't get angry. β
The warriors of the Roar tribe apologized bitterly, and when the potters calmed down their anger, they cheekily asked them for water.
The fur of these howler beasts is too thick and they don't like to shave, and on such a hot day, there are white foams at the corners of their mouths all the way, and they are sticking out their tongues and panting at the moment.
The Roar tribesmen fed water to their roaring beasts, while Ye Xi helped the Tao's people pack things together.
After everything was packed, Ye Xi saw that there were still many vacant two-wheeled vehicles, so he asked Pingyao, "Don't you put things on these cars?"
Pingyao explained: "This is for people to sit on, and some soldiers don't have war pets, or their war pets are not convenient for carrying people, so we rent these cars to them." β
Saying that, Pingyao seemed to remember something, and said to Ye Xi with a smile: "Of course, we will never charge you, if you don't like to ride, I can also lend you a moa to ride!"
Ye Xi was about to say something, but found that there seemed to be some movement in the nearby field.
Ping Yao obviously noticed it too, his face changed, and he walked quickly to the source of the sound and squatted down.
Ye Xi followed for some reason.
After a breath, the ground under their noses loosened, and two fluffy rabbit ears sprouted out of the soil like sprouts!
Then a small fluffy head also emerged from the ground.
Ping Yao stretched out an index finger and pressed it heavily on the little brain melon, and smiled subtly.
"The cave rabbit clan, the courage is fat enough, I said that I was not allowed to drill holes in our tribe, but I actually drilled again, huh?"
The burrowing rabbit with his head out of the ground looked like a ten-year-old boy, with a pair of rabbit-like ears, brown fuzz on the sides of his cheeks, a small nose and mouth, and eyes without whites like rabbits, which looked weird and cute.
The little boy of the rabbit tribe was poked in the head by the flat kiln, and he was stunned, and then found that he couldn't get out of the ground no matter how hard he tried, and his eyes were watery in a hurry.
"The ground is too dangerous...... I'm going to drill holes fast......"
The voice is weak, and the two ears hang down aggrievedly, which perfectly interprets what it means to be weak, pitiful and helpless.
