After leaving the Maka tribe, Shao Xuan also saw people from other tribes going out, but they were not with them, those people were very wary of Shao Xuan, probably because they were carrying some goods, and they were worried that Shao Xuan would rob them.

Shao Xuan also had the experience of traveling far away, and knew that the team would be rejected when he met strangers on the way, so he didn't get up, but just asked from a distance of about 20 meters.

Seeing that Shao Xuan didn't mean to get closer, the other party reluctantly answered Shao Xuan's two questions, and left in a hurry.

Shao Xuan just asked about the geography of the surrounding area, but the other party's answer was too brief, and Shao Xuan could only combine the news he heard from the Maka tribe to guess where he was going.

Here, there are tribes and slave owners who rule places, but the tribesmen and slave owners do not have too many contradictions, and there will not always be conflicts like on the other side of the sea. Many of the tribesmen even went to the cities under the control of the slave owners to trade, which was a common occurrence for them. For example, the Maka tribe would often travel to the nearest city to exchange things for cloth, bronze weapons, and so on.

However, Shao Xuan didn't plan to go to the slave owners' territory, what he wanted to know most now was whether the other half of the Yanjiao tribe was here?

If the preferences of the Yanjiao people have not changed, they will probably prefer the mountains and forests, especially the places with many fierce beasts. As soon as there are more people, there will naturally be fewer beasts and fierce beasts, so Shao Xuan plans to try his luck in a place with few people in the mountains and forests.

After inquiring about the geographical form of the surroundings, Shao Xuan knotted the rope again, determined a direction, and went over there. He only gave the general direction, but did not tell the distance, so he could only go all the way there.

In the beginning. Every two days, I could see some people who traveled far away, but gradually, there were fewer people to see, the land became desolate, and although the surrounding mountains and forests were wide, I don't know if it was because of the soil quality. The plants that grow are not luxuriant, not even stout trees.

Shao Xuan raised his eyes and looked, surrounded by slightly desolate mountains with layers of rolling downs, he did not change his route, he planned to pass between the valleys, and listened carefully to the movements around him, except for the cries of some birds and small beasts, he did not hear other dangerous sounds, and the cries of birds and beasts were relatively peaceful. There is no sense of panic, and it should be relatively safe here.

There were occasional streams flowing through the valleys, and Shao Xuan had been walking along the prescribed route and direction, and when he came to a stream, he saw someone lying on the water's edge, and his head was resting on the side of the stream, when the stream flowed by. He also rushed into the other party's face, and his gray hair was scattered in the water. Swing with the stream.

If the other party had already lost his breath, Shao Xuan would not care much, but that person still had the breath of life, but it was only a little weak.

After exploring in the past, Shao Xuan found out. It was an old man with a lot of wrinkles on his face, and he looked older than he looked from the back. The person did not have any serious external injuries, except for a fractured arm bone in his right arm, and the rest of the body was fine.

The man was dressed in gray cloth. I don't know how much I've experienced, my clothes are in tatters, and they're only a little bit better than when Shao Xuan first came. There are a few copper knives with weapons, the knives look different, but they are all small, and the shape does not look like they are used as hidden weapons, so I don't know what they are used for. He also has a bag wrapped around his waist, the bag is made of animal skin, looking at the leather, there is also a fierce beast level, and the skin of ordinary beasts will not be so strong.

After looking carefully, Shao Xuan carefully turned the person over and moved away from the stream.

I couldn't wake up when I screamed, and there was no movement when I patted it, seeing that the person hadn't woken up, Shao Xuan's eyes fell on the animal skin bag on the other party's waist, and he reached out and poked it there. When the other party was lying on the edge of the stream, his uninjured left arm was always protected there, and even when he turned over, his arm did not leave, which was a conscious behavior, indicating that the animal skin bag had a very important meaning for this person.

When Shao Xuan reached out to poke the animal skin bag, the other party didn't wake up, but the muscles on his face moved.

poked again, the other party opened his eyes suddenly, his bloodshot eyes were defensive and murderous, his elbow pushed to the ground, and he quickly rolled twice in the direction away from Shao Xuan, and then hit his head on the big stone next to him, and the sound Shao Xuan heard it hurt him. Why be so excited.

Fortunately, the person hadn't knocked out yet, and after a few "hums" in pain, the man wanted to reach out and touch the injured forehead, but his right arm was injured, and his left arm was protected by the animal skin bag, and he moved his left arm.

"Don't worry, I won't rob. Shao Xuan saw him like this, so he said.

At such an age, I don't know why I fainted by the stream, and just woke up and hit my head on the stone, it's strange that I can feel better.

The other party's spirit relaxed slightly, but his defense still did not retreat.

"If you want to rob me, you have already robbed me, but you have to wait until now? Besides, even if I want to rob now, can you stop me?" Shao Xuan said.

Oh yes. The gray-haired old man's eyes were a little less guarded, and the murderous aura when he just woke up also subsided, and his brain was still a little dizzy, so he slowed down, moved his nose, and looked at Shao Xuan: "Do you have meat on your body?"

Interrogative sentence, but the tone is very affirmative.

Shao Xuan reached out and took out a piece of jerky from the bag and threw it over, asking, "Why did you faint here?"

The old man hurriedly caught the jerky thrown by Shao Xuan, sniffed it, his eyes were a little disgusted, but his movements were not slow, he quickly took a few bites and ate it, and replied to Shao Xuan's words inarticulately: "Hungry." ”

I thought it was poisoning or something else, but I didn't expect the answer to be hungry.

After quickly eating the piece of jerky given by Shao Xuan, the old man looked at Shao Xuan again: "Is there anything else?"

Shao Xuan took out a piece again, but he didn't hand it over immediately, but said, "You answer me a few questions first, and I'll give you the meat in my hand." ”

The old man frowned, did not speak, and did not seem to be very happy.

Shao Xuan didn't care, raised his finger, and asked, "Go over there, how long will it take to see the dense woods?"

After hearing Shao Xuan's question, the old man's frowning brows loosened, thinking that it was a problem, but it turned out to be this.

"I don't know, I haven't been, and I'm here for the first time. But, as far as I know, you won't be able to see the dense woods for at least two days, just like here. The old man replied, "This is a famous wasteland, and there is not even a tribe, and even if you go in it for two more days, you will not see anyone else." ”

Handing the meat to the old man, Shao Xuan went to the stream to wash his face and continued on his way. This old man has eaten meat and is energetic, and he can go, so he doesn't need Shao Xuan to meddle anymore.

It's just that Shao Xuan didn't take a few steps when the old man's voice came from behind him.

"Hey, wait a minute, that little brother!"

Just now, he was on guard like a thief, but now he is calling "little brother" affectionately. Generally speaking, when it is called so affectionate, there must be other intentions.

Shao Xuan turned around and asked the other party what was going on.

The old man got up from the ground, looked around, his eyes stayed in one place, and pointed happily: "There, just the white striped grass, you can pick some for me." ”

Listen to the tone, a commanding posture. Look at the place where the old man pointed again, on the mountain wall at almost 90 degrees above the ground, at least thirty meters above the ground, a few half-arm-long grasses with white stripes grew there.

Shao Xuan wanted to turn his head and leave, but seeing that the other party didn't seem to realize that his tone was wrong, Shao Xuan thought about it, shook his head, forget it, don't worry about the old man, and he also wants to know what those white-veined grasses are for.

In such an unfamiliar place, it's always good to know a little more. (To be continued......)
