Chapter 364: The Exaggerated Necklace

After separating from Jiju, Shao Xuan continued to hurry along the target direction, knowing that there was really a Yanjiao tribe, he felt a lot more at ease, even if this place was far from the Yanjiao tribe, Shao Xuan felt relaxed in a hurry.

Without Jiju, Shao Xuan's footsteps were much faster, and he saw some plants and made some herbs on the way, and some poison healing drugs were prepared, which Shao Xuan learned from Jiju.

Some spare stone tools were also made when they came across good stones. This is the advantage of stone tools, which are made from local materials and do not need to be forged. Shao Xuan also polished a basin-sized pot out, of course, much deeper than the basin, used to cook soup and boil medicine, there are two "ears" left on both sides of the stone pot, after the stone pot is used, the straw rope passes through these two "ears", and then carries it on the back, and takes the pot on the road, ready to use.

This arid mountain range is indeed very large, Shao Xuan gradually saw the dense grassland on the fourth day when he was separated from Jiju, after the mountains, the terrain also became flat, as far as the eye could see, it was a vast grassland, I don't know if it was the reason for this season or the lack of rain here, although there was a lot of grass growing on the ground, but it was still biased towards drought.

Trees suitable for the grassland environment are clustered together, or isolated in the middle of an empty meadow, which is also a major feature of the grassland here. There are also rivers in the steppe, but they are not big. Along the curving riverbank, there are unnamed trees scattered in a corridor on both sides.

Compared with this vast grassland, there are not many trees growing here, but the grass is rich and diverse, even if Shao Xuan has learned a lot of forests and grasses with Jiju, there are many strangers when he comes here. Shao Xuan doesn't have the detoxification physique like Jiju, so he doesn't dare to eat indiscriminately, even if he chooses carefully when he is resting. Don't look at such a seemingly ordinary meadow, there are a lot of killing opportunities in the secret, and sometimes, an inconspicuous piece of grass can kill people.

The bison herd lined up in formation. Wandering slowly on the grasslands, even the sharpest predators on the grasslands have to think about how to drag a bison out of the herd, and this wild and strong herd is not easy to deal with, especially the few bison on the periphery that are obviously much larger than those in the center of the herd. The black and pointed horns with lines are the first weapon to meet the enemy.

Seeing Shao Xuan, several bison on the periphery stomped on their strong hooves, and their thick and powerful limbs and bull's hooves like iron palms trampled on the grass, easily stepping out of a hoof-shaped pit.

They were demonstrating, warning Shao Xuan.

A predator that looked like a lion was hidden behind the xerophytic bushes, and when it saw this scene, it unwillingly took its eyes off the herd and moved to shao xuan, but. Facing Shao Xuan's gaze, the hair on its back exploded, and its intuition made it avoid this seemingly small human being. Eventually, it decided to keep guarding the herd and wait for the right moment before attacking.

Shao Xuan created a suitable hunting opportunity for the big cat, he first threw some pungent herbs in the herd to cause the herd to be restless, and then seized the opportunity to slaughter a bison. Then he ran away with the ox on his shoulder. And the big cat hiding behind the bushes also saw the opportunity to pick up a bargain.

After eating some roast cow, Shao Xuan took out the stone pot. I went to the river to scoop some water, thought about it, and put a little "thousand grains of gold". Most of the thousands of grains of gold he threw into the pot were the mutilated grains that had been bitten by wild rats that he had asked for from Kii, and in Kiii's words, it was unlikely that they would survive. It's okay to eat.

Shao Xuan didn't dislike that these grains had been bitten by wild mice, and after peeling the shells, he threw the golden grains into the pot and boiled them. Although there are too few grains compared to this pot of water, the soup is a little cloudy yellow, with a faint fragrance. It's tempting, and it's a good treat to drink such a pot after eating too much meat.

The boiled grains are soft and glutinous in the mouth, and the taste is good, and once the soup is drunk into the stomach, Shao Xuan feels a lot more comfortable all over his body. It's no wonder that Jiju doesn't look down on the meat of those beasts, and it is indeed much better to eat this than the meat of beasts.

But no matter how good it is for his health, Shao Xuan only has a thousand grains of grain on hand. A thousand grains, a lot, but put together is only a little bit, Shao Xuan said that he wanted to try to grow a thousand grains of gold, not to play, he really had this idea, if he can plant successfully, when he goes back to the sea in the future, he can also bring a batch back to improve the life of the tribe.

After eating and resting, Shao Xuan took his equipment and continued to hurry.

The topography of the grassland is slightly undulating, and some raised hills can sometimes be seen in the wilderness, and occasionally some anthills can be seen.

Seven days after Shao Xuan stepped into the grassland.

Under the clear sky, a few people on horseback galloped on the grassland, and the tame horses stepped on the slightly arid grassland with smoke and dust.

The man on the horse was dressed in a mixture of fur and cloth, his long hair was not cut short, but braided into several braids, the hairstyle of both men and women was similar, and some patterns were painted on his face.

Shao Xuan carried two roasted bison thighs, carried a stone pot with a basin, and walked on the grassland with relaxed steps, compared to the rapid galloping and tense atmosphere over there, Shao Xuan, a stranger who appeared here, was particularly leisurely, and this abrupt painting style could not be ignored by horseback riders.

The young man who rushed to the front reined in his horse when he approached Shao Xuan, and when the people behind him saw this, they also stopped their horses one after another, and their scrutinizing eyes swept towards Shao Xuan. Two of the young men also held daggers at their waists and drew some of them, while others put their hands on the knives hanging from the side of their horses.

After sweeping around Shao Xuan's body, the person who started the head was more cautious in his eyes, but his face was not so serious, and he asked Shao Xuan with a smile where he came from.

Seeing that the people in the lead were like this, the other people looked at each other, and they all changed their expressions, the young man who had touched the knife just now did not move and moved his hand away, and the person who pulled out the dagger inserted the dagger back into the holster on his waist, and their eyes stayed on the extremely special necklace hanging around Shao Xuan's neck for a moment, and then, like everyone else, showed his white teeth and looked at Shao Xuan with a smile.

The "necklace" hanging around Shao Xuan's neck was actually made of the horns of bison, the fangs or claws of other predators. For these people, the people who can hunt these steppe beasts, and the people who can carry so much weight and can easily walk, are enough to make them think more before making a move.

Don't look at the friendly smile of these people when chatting with Shao Xuan, they think Shao Xuan is not easy to mess with. Don't mess with those who are not easy to provoke, mainly make friends, and those who are easy to bully will be robbed directly, and killed directly after grabbing. Bullying the weak and fearing the hard, the weak and the strong, in such a primitive environment, exist all the time, which is also the reason why Shao Xuan left souvenirs to make exaggerated necklaces after hunting.

After a few words with those people, Shao Xuan didn't directly say which tribe he belonged to, only said that he came back after going out to practice, and he couldn't remember the road clearly, so he asked about the surrounding terrain and used a cow leg as a reward.

After receiving a leg of a cow from Shao Xuan, I heard Shao Xuan say that the tribe was deep in the dense mountains and forests, and they were idle anyway, so they showed Shao Xuan the way, and also freed up a horse for Shao Xuan to take Shao Xuan over. Although they have not been to further places, and so far they have only been active in the grassland range near the tribe, but they have also heard from the elders that those dense mountain and forest places, when they are more powerful, they will have the opportunity to be taken out, so they still know some necessary geographical directions.

"If you go all the way from here, and after a few more mountains, you should be able to see it. The young man in the lead said.

They can only lead the way here, it is impossible to go further, and it is dangerous to go far. Looking at Shao Xuan, who is the same age as them, he can rush on this dangerous grassland alone, and he is still alive and well, and those who were slightly dissatisfied in his heart before had to endure it.

"Thank you. After riding a horse for a while, Shao Xuan took his equipment and continued to walk.

Walking through the grassland, over a mountain range, I finally saw the scenery I was looking for.

Standing on the high mountain, looking at the dense green in the distance, and breathing in the moist air, Shao Xuan threw the stone pot behind his back and went down the mountain. (To be continued......)
