Chapter 569: The Rainy Season
The changes in the boundless river have always worried the people of the Ya tribe.
The changes in the river lasted for several days, but there was no real movement, as if they saw someone throw a boulder at them, but they never saw the stone fall to the ground, and the witch and leader of the tribe were sleepless for several nights.
Since the abnormal situation on the other side of the river, the crocodiles in the river have collectively moved their nests away from the river bank, and now their range of activities is also much away from the river bank, even if they have to climb a long distance every day, they are also willing, which makes the people of the tribe puzzled at the same time, even more worried. What is it that makes crocodiles behave like this?
Until one day, when the ground suddenly shook, the crocodiles that had been swimming in the water climbed ashore from the water of the small river in panic, and continued to run away from the riverbank, towards their newly dug burrows.
The man standing on the crocodile's back was overturned, and no matter what he called it, the crocodiles just didn't look back, and crawled towards their new burrow.
The ground shook a little, and then there was no more movement.
When the warriors of the Za tribe were investigating the situation around, they found that there were many dead fish in the big river. The fish that had been beating ferociously on the surface of the river a few days ago and had their mouths biting each other were now turning their bellies up one by one and floating on the surface of the water, motionless.
"This, this, this...... What's going on?!"
The patrolling warriors hurried back to report the matter to the Wu and the chief.
In the following days, every ten or so days, there was a ground movement, and the time between each earth movement became shorter and shorter, and more and more intense.
The people of the Sara tribe listened to the witches and chieftains, followed the example of the crocodiles, and moved all the houses away from the riverbank.
And at that time, on this continent. Water sources have dried up in many places.
The good thing is that the weather hasn't changed significantly, it's still the same as in previous years, except that every time it rains, the people of the tribe. As well as tourists who depend on various tribes for survival, they will rush to carry the prepared clay pots out to receive water.
The tribe that is good at making pottery has made a lot of money in such a strange living environment. In the past, large pottery was not easy to sell, but now the best ones are those clay jars and large clay pots.
Firing pottery is simple, but good pottery is not easy. Many people fire pottery of poor quality and is easy to break. Even the walls of the jar still seep water outward, or it is not used for a long time, and it is not strong, so you can only go to the place where you trade to buy pottery.
The same is true on the Yanjiao side, where visitors will also ask for labor in exchange for clay pots and the like.
After a shower was over, people inside and outside the tribe were busy bringing the pottery that had been placed outside to catch water into the house.
Now, because the circumstances are exceptional. If Wu senses that it is going to rain, he will inform the tribe in advance. Then, as soon as the sky changed, everyone would hurriedly move out their water tools and fill the outside so that in the end, there was not much place for people to walk. But when it rains, few people are outside. Everyone was busy fetching water.
The shaking of the ground was not only felt on the edge of the continent, but also in other places, especially in the mountain forest where Yanjiao is located, which was extremely intense, and. Every time the ground shakes, there will be a chaos in the mountains and forests, with beasts roaring and birds flying.
What frightened Shao Xuan the most was that when he went out hunting, he saw a volcano in the mountain forest, that volcano should have not erupted for a long, long time, and a pool was formed in the depression on the top of the mountain, where Shao Xuan had been there with the people of the hunting team.
It seems that there has not erupted for about thousands of years, and there are many plants and animals growing there, but Shao Xuan didn't care about it at the time.
But this time, when he went out with the hunting team and carried the prey to the cave where he was resting, he passed by the mountain that stood thousands of meters above the ground, which was obviously still the same as before, but it gave Shao Xuan a strange sense of grandeur.
Shao Xuan also asked the other people of the hunting team, they didn't have any special feelings when they looked at the volcano, only Shao Xuan, the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became, and he always felt that under this tranquility, there was a vicious monster that was ready to attack.
It's not necessarily that there are really giant beasts living there, Shao Xuan just felt a panic when he saw it, this is the first reaction brought by intuition, it won't be like this for no reason, there must be a reason.
And the subsequent earthquakes gave birth to a guess in Shao Xuan's heart, if so, that guess came true......
Taking a deep breath, Shao Xuan called the person who took care of the cultivated land over and asked about the situation in the field.
Some of the newly planted crops with short growth cycles, which were close to maturity, were just side dishes that some warriors did not like, and other non-totemic warriors in the tribe liked them, and these were also good for their health.
The harvested millet and some food that can be stored for a long time have been processed and stored in the warehouse, and the weapons have been being crafted, and everyone has been preparing for the uneasiness in their hearts.
In the midst of one earthquake after another, the rainy season came.
In previous years, the rainy season is not as pronounced as it is on the riverbank, but there is more rainfall, but this year, the rainfall is not only frequent, but also fierce. People no longer often take out the containers that receive water. However, this does not reduce the panic in people's hearts.
Boom –
The ground shook again, and many of the clay pots placed there to catch water overturned and even broke.
Some people barely stood still, various utensils clanged and collided together, and many of the rooms heard the cries of children.
This is already a good situation, after all, the ground has shaken more times, and everyone has also been mentally prepared, not as flustered as a headless fly at the beginning.
It's only been five days since the last earthquake. The time interval is shorter.
Whoa!
The rain is falling more rapidly, and many people living near the rivers may have been worried about whether such a violent rainstorm will cause the rivers to flood their farmland.
However, now, no one thinks about the flooding of the river, because the river is still at a low level.
Lu tribe.
The leader of the Lu tribe stood with a wooden face in front of the waterhole occupied by their tribe, which had become a bottomless pit.
Since the end of winter, this pool has not been flooded, and even at this time of unusually frequent rainfall, the surrounding water is pouring into it, and there is no momentum of water coming out.
This rainy season is unusual and many people have never experienced it. The precipitation is heavy, and it is still turbulent, but the river is still not rising.
The people of the Cha tribe, who live on the edge of the continent, feel it even more strongly.
The patrolling warriors stood on the bank of the river, looking into the distance, and the huge figures of the dinosaurs jumped out of the water and let out a long roar.
Living here for so long, they would hear the overlords of the river roaring at this time of year, leading the team in the river away. But it was the first time they had heard the cries of the overlords in the river that were not like in previous years, and this time the cries were sharper and more urgent, and they made people even more panicked.
Moreover, according to the law of each year, all kinds of river beasts in the river will leave during the rainy season, but this year, the situation of the river beasts leaving happened as early as before the rainy season arrived!
During the rainy season this year, the river beasts left very early.
During the rainy season this year, the crocodiles of the tribe did not leave, but they rarely appeared, and even less often went down the river, and many times, they stayed away from the river bank.
During the rainy season this year, the water of the Boundless River began to decline in advance, and before the rainy season ended, it dropped significantly.
No amount of rain could save the falling river.
"What do you say, what's going to happen?" asked a warrior from the Shan tribe, drenched in the rain, wiping his face.
After he asked, he didn't hear the response of the rest of the team, and when he looked at the side, all the soldiers stared at the river in a daze, as if they were going to stare out their eyes, and their faces turned gray, as if they had seen something extremely terrifying.
"Look, look at you scared into this ......"
Before he could finish a sentence, the warrior also saw what was happening on the river.
Actually, they didn't really see it, after all, it was far away, and there was a thick curtain of rain to interfere with the vision, and they could only see a vague shadow. But it was this vague shadow that frightened the patrolling soldiers almost suffocated.
In the middle of the great river that has descended a lot, on the water surface in the distance, there was originally a river dinosaur exposed to the water, and the overlord of the river that used to give people an unrivaled sense of oppression suddenly exploded.
Yes, it exploded directly.
It was like a piece of soft mud that had been pinched hard.
In the distance, there was blood. The cry of the river dinosaur stopped abruptly, and no other river dinosaur appeared, everything on the river surface seemed to suddenly fall silent, maybe there would be some sound at the point of the incident, but the river bank was far away, and there was the noise of rain constantly smashing down, and the warriors of the tribe could not hear any other sound.
In the distance of the river, it seemed to be shrouded in blood-colored mist, and nothing else could be seen.
The rapid rain fell on the people, fell into the eyes, and flowed over the narrow pupils of the people of the Sar tribe. They can tolerate water getting into their eyes, but the rush of rain falls too quickly and drips into their eyes, causing a little discomfort. But at this time, that discomfort could not affect the mood of this team of soldiers at all.
After a moment of silence, the warriors of the tribe reacted and took a deep breath of the water vapor with the coolness of the rain.
Rainwater poured into the trachea from the noses, and several fighters choked and coughed as if they were going to cough out their lungs. Actually, the rain didn't choke badly, but they just recovered from the shock and just wanted to do something to vent their fear.
On the surface of the river, it is the overlord of the river, and everyone is extremely jealous of it and recognizes its supremacy in this river. However, the huge overlord in the river turned into a cloud of blood mist in an instant!
What kind of power is that?!(To be continued.) )
