Chapter 469: Tribal Secrets

There are fire crystals on the ground, half of which were dug up by the Fox Fox before, but now they are all frozen again, and they have to be dug again.

However, the weapons and tools in the hands of the three leaders are better, and they have a lot of strength, and they have the illumination of luminous crystals, and the three of them can dig quickly. However, when digging, be vigilant to prevent other people from coming, such as Fierce Fox and others from the Sen tribe.

Shao Xuan planned to jump into the pit dug out of the fire crystal to take a look, the pit wall was covered with a layer of white ice, so he first tied a rope and put it down, and slid down the grass rope.

The pit is already deep and slippery, so it is more convenient to use a rope.

After Shao Xuan went down to the pit, he landed directly in the place where the giant beast had stayed.

The beast left, and it was now a long tunnel, surrounded by a layer of white ice, thin but frozen with the rock layer, very hard.

The temperature was very low, and Shao Xuan felt that the breath he exhaled was not a little hot.

He could feel that there were fire crystals all around this "tunnel", and perhaps, this giant beast stayed in such a place because of the fire crystals. Just like the Bat King once was.

It's just that after so many years, this "snake" has never come out. Dormant for hundreds of years? It's long enough, and I don't know how big it is.

Swinging the sword, he chiseled through the ice next to him, dug out a piece of fire crystal embedded in the cave wall, and felt it, Shao Xuan found that this fire crystal should have been absorbed, but it was not absorbed.

That "snake"?

No matter how much, Shao Xuan's movements were quickened, and he waved the sword in his hand, and he didn't need a glowing spar, and he could see the fire crystal on the cave wall clearly under the special vision, and he was also accurate.

Whoa!

For a time, this entire tunnel was inside. The sound of digging fire crystals echoed, as well as the sound of them digging above the pit.

After Zhengluo finished picking up the fire crystals above, even the frozen people on the Fierce Fox's side turned them over and put them all into their own animal skin bags, and the three of them jumped into the long "tunnel" below.

"I was going to come to rob the salt mine with the Fierce Fox this time, but I didn't expect to rob their fire crystals. The leader of the River Tay laughed.

Anyway. was able to get the fire crystal, and the heavy mood that had been heavy finally got some comfort.

The ones on the Flame Fox's side have already dug up to the fire crystal layer, and each fire crystal is relatively large, better than the ones in the Yanjiao Salt Cave.

The three leaders took a break and continued to move. No one knew how long the king beast would leave, so they could only take this opportunity to dig a little more, and when the king beast returned, they would withdraw.

"I've never seen so many fire crystals in my life for so long. "The leader of the Tay River was short of breath. I don't know if I'm tired or happy.

"I've lived for nearly eighty years, and I've never seen so many fire crystals. Arashi of the Mountain Wind Tribe sighed.

Shao Xuan's action of digging up the fire crystal paused, and Zheng Luo was silent.

The leader of the River Tae glanced at Zhengluo and did not speak.

Don't look at the three leaders who look about the same age, they are all about forty years old, but in fact they are not, they are all much older than Zhengluo.

Maybe other people who don't know about the Yanjiao tribe don't know, but the Taihe tribe who have been with the Yanjiao people for a long time does. Of all the tribes, the average lifespan of the Flamehorns. is the shortest.

This is what Shao Xuan only learned later, when he was on the other side of the sea, he noticed it, but he was not sure, and he didn't know the truth until he came here. The Flamehorns are different in many ways, but only one is different from the others. It's the same as the most ordinary person who doesn't have any power, and that is lifespan.

Among the people from the Taihe tribe who came this time, there were many people over 100 years old, but they still seemed to be in their prime, but if they were in the Yanjiao tribe. Over 100 years old, even if you are alive, you will definitely not be able to hunt, you can only help with farming, and you can't do too tiring work. At the end of their lives, they age very quickly.

Because their lives are incomplete.

This is something that was not thought of when the Tinder split back then.

The reason why the ancestors were so guilty, and the guilt in the notes they left behind, was not only because they could not return to their homeland, but more importantly, because they sensed the punishment brought to them by the split fire - they did not have a full life.

They are stronger than other tribes in many ways, but in terms of lifespan, they have a knife hanging from them, and they will cut them off mercilessly before they have completed the whole road.

On the other side of the sea, maybe the witch also knew about it, but he didn't tell anyone else, plus the Yanjiao tribe over there has always been isolated from the world, and everyone can't detect such drawbacks, and there is no negative emotion and pressure. The people here, the tribe doesn't communicate much with the outside world, and most people don't know about it. Maybe some of the fighters knew, but they just held it in their hearts.

Back then, the ancestors of the tribe allowed intermarriage with other clans, perhaps they also wanted to use such a thing to see if they could solve this problem, but unfortunately, there was no effect, the bloodline of Yanjiao was too strong, and the bloodline of the outside clan could not be suppressed.

At the beginning of coming here, most of the ancestors' handwritings that Shao Xuan read were just notes with great guilt, but he didn't directly mention the reason, and it wasn't until Shao Xuan returned to the tribe from Gongjia Mountain and practiced controlling the power of the ancestors' bone ornaments that Wu mentioned it to him.

Even if many people in the tribe know that the lifespan of their tribe is not as long as that of other tribes, they don't know the reason, and some people think that it is because the lifespan of the Yanjiao people is made up for their strength, and they are endowed with divine power, so they will strip away other things.

Wu didn't tell them, and he didn't want them to have extremely slim hope. Generations have passed, nearly a thousand years have passed, and they still haven't been able to go back, and I don't know when this matter has been selectively forgotten, and only the top of the tribe knows, Zhengluo knows, Wu knows, and others don't know the real reason.

Shao Xuan's arrival is a light and a hope.

In the past year, Wu had already sent several groups of people to the beach, and where Shao Xuan came at the beginning, he only waited for an opportunity to take the entire tribe to migrate. Unfortunately, I have never been able to find an opportunity. No one knows how long it will take for that opportunity to come again.

Get back...... How to get back?

Shao Xuan thought about it, and the action of digging up the fire crystal also became absent-minded.

The leader of the mountain wind was quite puzzled, what was going on with this atmosphere? It felt suddenly oppressive.

"I'll take a look around first. Shao Xuan handed the dug fire crystal to Zhengluo and ran along the tunnel.

While running, Shao Xuan identified the direction and calculated the distance until he came to a stop and looked at the top of the "tunnel". This should be closer to the salt cave at their Flame Horn, not directly above, but diagonally above.

Instead of starting to dig immediately, Shao Xuan continued to walk along the "tunnel" until he came to the end of the tunnel. This is where the king beast burst out of the ground. But the entrance to the cave was already frozen, and a very thick layer of ice blocked the entire entrance, and the closer it got to the entrance, the colder it became.

Shao Xuan didn't walk over, but listened carefully, and didn't hear the sound of the king beast moving outside, so he turned back.

The king beast froze the entrance of the cave, and there should be no intention of coming back in a short time.

He called them over and said what he meant. He was going to start digging beneath the Salt Cave at Flamehorn.

If they will be trapped here for a few days, then if they dig up fire crystals, will they still come down from the place of the fierce fox every time? The fierce fox is obviously targeted by the king beast, if it is over, I don't know if it will anger the king beast, and besides, a large part of the people of the Fierce Fox and the Sen tribe are not here, if they come back, the two sides will inevitably fight, at this time, there is no need to consume with them.

The four of them were all together, and they decided to do so.

Where to dig and not to dig?

Shao Xuan quickly swung his sword, blocking the shovel of this sword that Gongjia Heng had cultivated, breaking through the ice of the "tunnel", and digging down the stones on the rock wall one by one.

The three of them also stepped up.

The situation outside is not clear, you can't leave immediately, it's better to get more fire crystals, even if they fight with the king beast later, they will desperately protect some people to go back, let them go back with fire crystals, and it will not be in vain to come in such weather. The fire crystals dug up can be used by the tribe for a long time.

The area they dug was not large, less than one-tenth of the pit on the Fox side, but the four of them worked together, and the progress was fast. The rock is hard at first, but the higher you go, the easier it becomes.

In the cave of Yanjiao, the warriors guarding the lower fire crystal pit heard the movement coming from the bottom of the pit, and their hearts panicked, and they hurriedly ran to find Duokang.

Duo Kang asked some of the people in the lower salt cave to go up first to prevent the ice from spreading again, and after arranging it, he took a few people to cautiously approach the fire crystal pit, planning to run as soon as he saw the ice situation.

What else is there in the underground except for the king beast?

Click-Click

The sound below became clearer and clearer, not like the movement of the king beast, there was no such terrifying momentum, and there was no frozen situation.

Outsiders: Fox tribe or Sen tribe?

Alert, Docon moved over a little, craned his neck to look into the pit, signaling for the others to be ready to do so.

The other fighters around him also clutched the weapons in their hands, their facial muscles twitching nervously. They were frightened by the king beast, and they really didn't want to see anything strange popping up from below. Hope is people, whether it is from the Fox Clan, or from the Sen tribe, or from other tribes.

The sound is getting closer.

The nerves of the people around the pit were tense, and it really didn't look like the movement of a giant beast.

There seems to be loosening underneath.

Dokang raised his hand.

Poof!

Layers of soil and rocks are pushed away.

Duo Kang was about to wave his arms and roar "do it", when he saw four heads popping up below, turning around and turning around.

Take a closer look.

Yo――――

Three leaders and an elder popped out of the hole!

The four people who finally dug up from below came out and saw a circle of people around the pit, all pointing at themselves with swords and axes. (To be continued......)
