Chapter 177: Steppe Tribes

Because of the revenge and slaughter of the Thousand Faces Tribe, the Far Travelers discussed for a long time, until they set off again, they still continued to talk, and also talked about similar things over the years, so that Shao Xuan obtained some new information.

Not to mention, in addition to the Thousand Faces Tribe, there are really a few tribes that are recorded on the animal skin scrolls left by their ancestors.

According to the information obtained, after Shao Xuan marked the animal skin roll, he carefully rolled up the animal skin and put it away, which was to be brought back to the Yanjiao tribe.

If the Yanjiao tribe returns, will it be able to regain its glory?

Shao Xuan is looking forward to that day very much.

Neither Shao Xuan nor Xuan mentioned to anyone else that they had encountered the people of the Thousand Faces tribe. After two more days on the river, the team abandoned the raft and walked instead, because it was inconvenient to use the raft further, and although there was a river, it was not as fast as walking, and the latter had to go higher.

The area ahead is on a higher ground, and I heard that there are endless grasslands and snow-capped mountains with no end in sight.

Sounds a lot like some places in the Flamehorn Tribe hunting area.

The grassland is very large, and there are some large and small tribes distributed there, and wars often break out between the tribes there, and the long-distance teams will not go deep into the grassland, let alone get involved in war-related matters, they just pass by the grassland, and exchange something with the tribes over there by the way.

At this time, the grass on the grassland is green.

Walking along the river and stepping on this grassland, Shao Xuan looked around.

The sky is high and crisp, the grass is green, and there are some small flowers blooming on the grassland that cannot be named, with a faint fragrance.

Looking ahead, the green meadow is endless.

In addition to the river that crosses the grassland next to Shao Xuan and them, there are also many small lakes scattered on the grassland. The lake reflects the blue sky.

There are also some finer rivers that run between large and small lakes with clear waters. Walking past, you can also see some small fish swimming fast.

"This is the grassland, go a little further. We entered the 'Feng' tribe. An experienced traveler next to him said to Shao Xuan.

The Feng tribe is one of the tribes on the grassland, and the team of the far-travelers is just passing through the Feng tribe. The Feng tribe and the Far Traveler team are already familiar with each other. This route has been taken for many years, and the two sides have known each other for a long time.

For the people of the Feng tribe, the people in the Far Traveler team belong to a tribe that is too far away from here, and there is no problem of grabbing territory with them, and too far away will not pose a threat to them. What's more, every time these far-traveled teams pass by, they can also take out some of the things produced by their tribes and exchange them with the people of these far-traveling teams.

Many people in the tribe like this kind of trade, and they can exchange for something that is rare to them without leaving the tribe, which is simple and trouble-free.

And for the people of the Far Traveler team, being able to exchange things and also travel through this grassland under the protection of the Feng tribe is a win-win thing, and they don't mind taking a step back when trading.

"Where are the people of the Feng tribe? I don't see it. He looked around. Said.

"The place where they live is not here, but this is their sphere of influence, and sometimes the Feng tribe will send people to patrol here. A little further along. I should be able to run into a patrol team. The man next to him said.

"The territory of the Feng tribe is so big!" said with emotion.

"This is quite big, if you see those really big tribes on the grassland, then don't you stare out?" The man next to him smiled, "Many tribes on the grassland will raise some cattle, sheep and horses, etc., and they also hunt, but there are not many prey here, most of the time they eat those raised animals." And the animals that are raised need to eat grass, and these grasses on the grassland are just for those animals that are raised. If there isn't enough grass, you won't be able to raise many animals. ”

There are no animals to raise. Without a source of food, the tribe will not be happy. Listen to the people next to you. He nodded knowingly. Most of the land here is grassland, there are no dense woods, and there are not many wild animals living here, unlike their Pu tribe, even if there is nothing that the travelers bring back, they can still find food from the surrounding mountains and forests.

As he was speaking, Shao Xuan heard a roaring sound, and there was a trembling movement on the ground under his feet.

"Someone is coming. ”

"Don't worry, it's the patrol of the Feng tribe. ”

"By the way, do you know that there are many warriors of tribes on the steppe, they are on horseback?"

"Horseback riding?" "I've only eaten horse meat, but I've never ridden it.

Shao Xuan and the rest of the team of Far Travelers looked in the direction where the voice came from.

There are some large raised mounds over there, all covered with green grass.

As the rumbling sound got closer and closer, figures appeared one after another where the mound met the blue sky, and soon, more figures appeared in everyone's sight.

The patrol consisted of a dozen or twenty people patrolling the area, and sometimes, in large groups of people who acted together, and not all of them were members of the patrol team, most of them were other members of the tribe. The people of the tribe do not stay in their places all day, and when they have time, they ride horses and gallop in groups across the grassland.

Hundreds of horses, rushing straight down from the huge green mound, rushed towards the procession of far-travelers, bringing a burst of majestic aura.

The horses began to slow down as they approached the procession, and with a long roar, the horses gradually stopped and surrounded the group.

Several of the big leaders of the expedition also knew the person who took the lead, greeted them with a warm smile, chatted with each other, and threw them some things that were extremely difficult to see on the grassland that they had changed to on the road.

The person who led the team on the Feng tribe received the things and said: "Many people from our tribe are waiting, someone asked when you will come a few days ago, and when I waited until today, I finally saw you." ”

Seeing the far-away team, the people on the Feng tribe's side were also very happy, some of them shouted that they would go back immediately to prepare the exchanged items, and some of them controlled the speed of the horse, and together with the long-distance team, while walking towards the tribe, they asked what new things were in the team. A young man also started talking to him, and he was very interested in the frog poison he carried, and asked him to teach him how to use the frog venom stingers.

Shao Xuan chatted with the person who took the lead in the patrol team of the Feng tribe. For the sake of the chirp thing.

The leader of the patrol team was called Ep, and when he saw the eagle in the sky, Epper put away his contempt for Shao Xuan.

There is no such fear as the leader of the Pu tribe, Guanghou. Ep is not so repulsive to giant eagles like Chirp, as long as they don't attack the herd of beasts raised by the tribe. They'd be happy to let the chirp fly over their tribe.

Because every day, many big birds in the sky catch the livestock raised by the tribe, and the Feng tribe does not have its own trained eagles to defend at all, so they can only make some artificial precautions. Epb didn't expect that there would be a person with a giant eagle in the expedition this time, and he was also more enthusiastic about Shao Xuan.

Seeing that Shao Xuan and those people from the Pu tribe were walking together, and they were quite familiar with each other, Eppe thought that Shao Xuan was also from the Pu tribe, but he didn't draw on his eyes. They didn't have much curiosity about other tribes, they had done before. When you get acquainted, there's nothing new about it. Anyway, it's just a passerby.

In the long-distance travel team, there were also some people from the Pu tribe who temporarily erased the paintings on their eyes after leaving the tribe, which made Shao Xuan inconspicuous.

The far-traveled team followed the people of the Feng tribe to the Feng tribe's station, it was getting late, and it was impossible for the far-traveling team to leave after the transaction, and it was just this opportunity to take advantage of this opportunity to go so far. Stay in the Feng tribe for two days and take a break. Wait until you cross the prairie and walk a little more. It's about to enter the middle of the country, and there won't be much time to rest.

The meadows are beautiful, you can hear people singing, and there are children playing and fishing by the river and lake, and there are adults and children running around on horseback. It seemed peaceful, and it was hard to imagine that this tribe was at war with another tribe not long ago.

It didn't take long for Shao Xuan to see the houses not far away that were made of animal skins, grass, wood, etc. Some of them look like tents.

"Rest here tonight, this side is for you to rest. Eppe gestured to a row of improvised wooden houses over there. Said.

Although there are many wooden houses, there are also many people in the team. I have to squeeze it again.

Shao Xuan entered the house with Yu and the others, and after cleaning up a little, Shao Xuan looked at the rest of the Feng tribe from the window.

In some wooden fences, there are many strange-looking cattle and sheep, perhaps wild domesticated breeds of this grassland, different from some cattle and sheep that Shao Xuan has seen. In the distance, there were people driving the herds of cattle and sheep back.

"By the way, doesn't it mean that the tribes on the grassland will also take in some tourists, and where do they all live?" Shao Xuan asked a few experienced people next to him.

"Tourists don't live here, it's all where people from the Feng tribe live, and sometimes they entertain guests, but other than that, tourists and so on are all over there. The man said, gesturing in one direction.

Shao Xuan looked in the direction he pointed, there were large green mounds raised over there, and on the other side of the mound, there were tourists.

The people of the Feng tribe, although they usually ask tourists to help and then give them a meager payment, but in general, they are still on guard.

Beyond the hills, Shao Xuan could also see some mountains that were not too high, the peaks of the mountains were covered with green, there were not many trees, and most of them were grass and stones.

Farther away, you can dimly see the shadows of mountains with white peaks, and over there are the territories of other tribes.

I heard that the far-traveling team was coming, and many people from the Feng tribe came over with things to exchange with the long-distance team. Shao Xuan originally had no intention of exchanging, he had hunted a cow halfway, and there was still a lot of roasted meat that he hadn't eaten, and the remaining water moon stone was kept in the middle of the country before being used.

However, when Shao Xuan was bored on the raft, he used some animal bones and horns to polish and carve some things, and there were two bone knives in his hands, and several bone ornaments carved into the shape of various fierce beasts were replaced by a middle-aged man with a leg of mutton. The man liked these a lot, and changed them back for the children at home.

As the sky began to darken, there were fewer people who came to exchange things, and after eating food, the people of the distant tribe had to rest.

Looking at the darkened sky, Shao Xuan planned to take a look at the place where tourists live tomorrow, and he had a feeling that he could find the person he was looking for here. (To be continued)

ps: The next shift will be a little later, everyone will sleep first. R655
