Chapter 539: Searching

A strange tree, without any leaves or forked branches, resembled a bare wooden stake standing there, only with hundreds of fist-sized holes on it.

The swinging axe carried the wind of the rapids and cut down the strange-growing tree.

"This is the last one. Qu Ce wiped the sweat from his forehead, and with a few axes, he cut the tree into several sections, and with the chopping, in those fist-sized holes in the tree, something like a bud stretched out, and the two leaves that were closed were wide open, as if they were going to bite something.

It is this kind of tree that today bites a piece of flesh from a warrior of the Mang tribe, and it is poisonous, and the phytotoxin can stop the blood from clotting, and if you let the wound go like this without applying medicine, the blood will continue to flow.

After cutting the tree into small pieces, the large buds on the tree hung down as if they had lost their strength, so Qu Ce picked up the pieces of wood and threw them into the woven net, keeping them for fire. As long as these "buds" are plucked, this kind of tree is very easy to burn and is suitable for firewood.

They followed Shao Xuan and a few other Yanjiao people into this place where the mountains towered, and then found a place to settle on another mountain not far from the Yanling people.

A little up the mountainside, there was an underground cave, where they now rested.

Standing on the mountainside and looking at the mountain in front of them, if it was a fire in the rock tomb, they could still see the smoke over there.

Qu Ce dragged a net bag of chopped firewood back to the resting place, where there was a flattened boulder with a wide hole under the boulder, and Qu Ce had to bend over when he entered it.

It looks cramped from the outside, but it's much more spacious inside.

It accommodated more than 50 people, and some roasted meat and fresh fruit were also stored, and the cave was not crowded.

It's just that. Because it is an underground stone cave, the few ventilation holes opened around it can't bring more light, and when you stay inside, you can only rely on the water moon stone.

"It's hot, it's hot!" Qu Ce shook the bag full of firewood and rested on the ground in the cave.

The cold bottom of the stone cave made Qu Ce, who had been busy all morning, sigh comfortably.

At a time when the temperature is getting hotter and hotter outside. The cave is indeed much cooler. And with such weather, it's easy to forget that it's actually winter now.

The people in the cave all gathered around Shao Xuan, and they didn't pay attention to Qu Ce, but stared at the movements of Shao Xuan's hands. The younger ones, those with a slightly lower status in the team, couldn't squeeze in at all, so they could only scratch their ears and cheeks on the side, listening to the words of a few people inside. I was itching, but I couldn't help it, so I could only wait by the side.

"Haven't dismantled it yet?" Qu Ce asked the person who was squeezed aside, who was a young warrior from the Weiba tribe.

"It should be soon. "That's human.

When Qu Ce came out of the cave to chop wood, someone brought back a trap, which was removed from the trap set by the slaves of the rock tomb. Although removed, the trap remained mostly intact except for some of the intricate knots and constructions involved. Many people want to break it out and carefully study and speculate, but they have nowhere to start. In the end, Shao Xuan stood up and took over the matter.

The trap looked like it had been set in a grassy area, with bait and a lasso for catching, and a combination of parts made of gold, which seemed to be a trap made specifically for something.

What are the people of Rock Castle looking for?

Shao Xuan had already told everyone that the people of Yanling were looking for the blue-faced fangs, but. There are many strange animals in the mountains and forests, and after some searching, I did not see any animals suspected of being blue-faced fangs.

It's been two days since they've been here, and they haven't met the slaves of Rock Tomb City, nor have they seen the so-called blue-faced fangs. If it weren't for the fact that those people from Yanling City were stationed here, and they were stationed for a long time, the people of other tribes would not believe Shao Xuan's words.

Shao Xuan told the story of the blue-faced fangs, but only revealed that they learned the news from the mouth of the "thief".

Yanjiao did catch the "thief" person, which several other tribes knew, so they still believed part of Shao Xuan's words, but the people of Yanling City wanted to find the blue-faced fangs, what was the use, Shao Xuan didn't say it, and the other four people in Yanjiao were also tight-lipped.

Whatever the truth was, in order to understand the purpose of the slave owners in Rock Tomb City, they had to know what the green-faced fangs were. Several tribes regard the desert slavers as their most threatening opponents, and Yanling's every move touches their nerves.

So now, when Shao Xuan was dismantling the trap, people from several tribes were all around, and in terms of catching fierce beasts in the trap, the people of Yanjiao were stronger, and they were willing to wait for Shao Xuan's explanation.

Shao Xuan looked at the dismantled trap and took a long breath, "Okay." ”

"How?!" asked the waiter.

Shao Xuan picked up a small handful of cyan grass that had been completely removed from the trap, "This should be the favorite food of the 'Green-faced Fang', so the people of Yanling will use it as bait, looking at the size of this trap, the Blue-faced Fangs should not be big." ”

Standing up and gesturing, Shao Xuan said: "The body size range should be from so tall to so tall." ”

According to Shao Xuan's speculation, the height of those blue-faced fanged beasts should not exceed their chests. Of course, it may be higher, but the answer to this trap is just that.

"It should still have horns, probably in this position. Shao Xuan picked up a burned branch and drew it on the ground of the stone cave.

The paintings that Thief Qi gave them were too abstract, even if they were exactly the same as the original paintings, but they couldn't see the specific appearance of the blue-faced fangs, Shao Xuan just summarized them and drew them based on the information he knew.

The people around Shao Xuan stretched their necks one by one, staring at the painting on the ground with wide eyes, as if they wanted to imprint it deeply in their minds.

"Is it accurate to guess just one trap?" or let's tear down another trap?"

"It's not impossible, it's just that it's easy to be discovered by the people of Yanling. "Someone hesitated.

"Do you think they really don't know?" Shao Xuan threw away the branch in his hand and looked at the trap that had been dismantled, "This trap may have been left by them on purpose." ”

"Deliberately? Why is that? Could it be that they have changed the trap to fool us?" asked Renoha.

"Not really. I do think, the people of Yanling. I want us to find it. ”

"Why?"

"Because they can't find it!"

The three words "can't be found" were deliberately accentuated by Shao Xuan.

The blue-faced fangs are indeed difficult to find, otherwise they would not have made Yanjiao's hunting team have no harvest until now. The slaves in Rock Tomb City should have been carefully selected, and there were thieves who followed them, even if the slaves didn't realize that they were thieves. Surely they have noticed the presence of this group.

noticed that their group came over, but they still didn't see it, the two sides never met, but instead left a trap to catch the fierce beast near here, saying that Shao Xuan didn't believe it if he didn't have any other thoughts.

"So, the people from Yanling haven't come here in the past two days because they know that we are here?" Gu Zhi circled in place, thinking, "This is also a good thing. Everyone is looking for their own. ”

"That's okay, according to the drawing by Elder Shao Xuan, everyone began to look for this...... Blue-faced fangs. Reed Ye said, looking at Shao Xuan, "Does Elder Shao Xuan still have anything to say?"

"If nothing else, it's just to prepare everyone mentally. Shao Xuan said.

"What preparations?" the people in the cave looked at Shao Xuan.

"According to what they saw in the sky, the people of the rock tomb had built houses and walls, and it seemed. Looks like you're ready to be here for a long time. ”

Preparing for a long time here?

There was silence in the cave for a moment.

The slaves in Yanling were able to live in wooden houses, and they were all the same. Are you really going to sleep in a cave all the time?

"Why don't you build a house? "The reed blade proposed.

The people of the Yu tribe have something to say at this time, and it is rare to have a chance to perform, "It is too eye-catching to build on the ground, it is better to build it on the trees in the forest and do some cover-up." It's also hard to spot. ”

"Then build a house, and let's go look for it first, and see where there is this grass around here. The spring leaf handed over the handful of grass to everyone, since he knew that the green-faced fangs liked to eat this grass, then go find a place where a large number of this grass grow. He didn't believe he couldn't wait for one!

Split up, all the people in the cave went out at once, leaving only a few injured people to stay, and if they found something abnormal, they could blow the whistle.

Shao Xuan's five people acted together, and without the others, Duokang would have been unable to hold back his words.

"Shao Xuan, are you really worried that those people will catch all the green-faced fanged beasts?"

"I'll talk about it if I can find it. "There are only five of them from Yanjiao, and since the other people's target is also the blue-faced fang, there is no need to hide it, because the most important thing now is to determine if the blue-faced fangs are really here. If there are really blue-faced fangs, there will be more opportunities for Yanjiao in the future, anyway, they will live in the fierce beast mountains and forests.

Duokang thought about it too, and said no more.

The grass obtained in the trap is not distinctive at first glance, but if you look closely, you will find that it is still different from many similar-looking grasses in the mountains and forests, the biggest difference is that when you get close to smell it, you can smell a faint fragrance, which distinguishes it from other grasses.

The difficulty is that there are so many similar-looking grasses in the mountains and forests, it is impossible to see a similar one, so just come over and smell it, right? What should I do if I am poisoned?

As people who often hunt in the mountains and forests, the eyesight of the five people in Yanjiao is still okay, stronger than others, but they have only found five trees until they have been able to return to the stone cave at night, and they can only find five trees on the entire mountain, so far they can only find five, this growth rate is terrifyingly low, and the possibility of the blue-faced fangs appearing here will be much lower.

"No hurry, continue tomorrow. Shao Xuan comforted.

Outside, the people of the Yu tribe are very efficient, and they have built small houses on the trees, each about ten square meters, covered with vines and branches, and it is indeed not easy to find.

However, compared to those, the five people of Yanjiao still prefer to be in the stone cave.

That night, half of them were outside, and half of them were still in the cave.

Compared with other people who can't sleep all night, Shao Xuan sleeps well, and it's rare to have a dream. (624564) (To be continued.) )
