Chapter 53, Retirement after the Great War
At an altitude of 500 meters, without any protection, he was in a dangerous situation in the most primitive way just to obtain a cherished and nourishing ingredient.
Towering into the clouds, the wind whistles in your ears, and the rolling peaks stand in layers.
Many gods who have been robbed of their natural divine power and turned into ordinary people gather here, carrying the pressure of survival and starting to hunt for honey, and their dark faces are beaten by the wind and rain, and they struggle to survive on the giant peak under the wind and rain.
The honeydew brewed by the giant bees on the cliff can nourish the body and replenish divine power, and the honey hunted from climbing the dangerous peak at a time and selling it to those gods can satisfy these people's hunger for months.
It's just that once you are attacked by a swarm of buzzing bees, you are stinged by a few bites, and you fall into a dangerous peak and cliff in pain, and you face the risk of death.
Honey hunters here are few and in danger of their lives, but they are a source of livelihood for the entire clan.
Smoke is the only weapon of flesh against bees, but fire can also ignite vine ladders.
A girl with a tanned face is one of the few female honey hunters. Agile and poorly dressed, each holding a long pole in each hand, while the other companions struggled to hold the ladder below.
Climbing outside the hive, the girl used a string to connect her waist to the rattan ladder, and the partner below handed the bamboo pole, and the girl pulled one of the ropes on her body, and the bamboo pole slowly rose from the ground.
After getting the bamboo pole, the girl drove it into the crevice of the rock, during which there were many bees coming and going to obscure her vision, and she had to be careful otherwise there would be a hundred-meter cliff below.
Pull your body close to the cliff with both hands with a bamboo pole, tie it tightly with a rope around your waist, and stand on the tip of your left foot with a knife between your right foot, which is not wearing shoes.
After steady, the right hand carefully picks up the knife caught in the right foot, regardless of the horror of the bee swarm, cuts the honeycomb with the knife, and the left hand puts the basket against the honeyhive to catch the cut honey.
The slightest carelessness is the cost of life. Every year, honey hunters pay with their lives.
Only half of a beehive is taken to ensure that there is still honey to harvest in the coming year.
After successfully placing half of the honey nest in the basket, the girl shouted, "The basket is coming!"
The cooperating partners lowered the baskets that had been tied to the ropes, and cheers rang out one after another.
The higher the risk, the greater the harvest, and this year's batch of cliff honey is sweet and gratifying, and the people in the clan finally showed a relieved smile on their faces as they shared the honey blocks.
The girl also came down safely from the rattan ladder, and it was Yun Jue, who had been missing for a long time after the war.
The group went back with a bumper harvest.
Next to the fire, chicks are moving left and right foraging for food, puppies are sleeping comfortably on the ground with their front legs outstretched, and copper and aluminum pots and bowls are stacked on the wall.
The white buns are kneaded back and forth, fried in a small stove on the fire to a golden brown, and drizzled with honey that has just been cut today. Just pour one spoonful and the usual shortbread will instantly glow.
After the Great War, he stayed in the house of Tyre.
There are people who don't have innate divine power gathered here, although the Thousand Faces Pool has transferred all the existing innate divine power back, but once one of the deprived or deprived people dies, then the innate divine power will dissipate between heaven and earth and cannot return normally.
There are some people who will never be able to regain their natural divine power for the rest of their lives, and they will settle here forever.
Yun Jue handed over all the income from climbing the dangerous peak and cutting the honey nest to the Thiel family, and she only asked for three meals to eat.
Staying here, like them, she didn't use her divine powers and talents, but she felt more relaxed than she had ever been. There is no threat of long winds, no urgency that lives may be lost at any time, only the freedom to sweat in the mountains.
This feeling is similar to the epiphany she once felt when she read the scriptures in the Buddhist temple, and it is a kind of satisfaction from the heart to return to herself.
Yun Jue had already picked up the second shortbread drizzled with honey, and the gluttonous Tygiel had already rushed to eat the cake with her at this time, but she was nowhere to be seen at the critical moment.
Yun Jue asks Tyre and learns that she is sick.
Yun Jue walked inside, and Tygil was lying on the bed, her originally rosy lips losing their bright color,
The red face was no longer rosy, and the curly forehead hair was drooping.
Tyr's voice came from behind: "Since the birth of the Demon of the Divine Realm, it was Luo Shen who turned the tide and defeated the other party by combining the five great treasures of the divine realm, and the treasures have been scattered again in the divine realm since then. Those of our clan who were able to recover their natural divine power have all gone back, and now only those of us who are not so lucky are left. No one cares if we live or die."
Although his daughter is sick for unknown reasons, he still has a large family to support, and there is no way to continue living for the sake of being alone. Once the people in their clan get sick, they can only rely on themselves to survive, and they all rely on the destiny of heaven, and there is no medicine stone to cure.
What Tai Jill got was only the simplest wind chill power, but because he was too young, it was hard to say whether he could survive it. For the gods, even the most common and lowest-grade medicines are as unattainable as things in the sky for the people here.
It's not just about price, it's like a place of exile, where they survive in the cracks, almost cut off from the outside world. Even the usual search for medicine is a luxury.
Because those of them who are not endowed with divine power are not worthy to enter the realm of the gods.
Tyre's wife also continued to pour honey on the shortbread with a sad face, as a mother, she could only pray and keep watching over and over for a long time. If she could, she would rather be sick and suffer instead of Tejir.
As the center of that great battle, Yun Jue naturally knew what the truth of the matter was. Tyr's rhetoric is nothing more than the end of her discussion with Roselle.
Since then, she has severed all ties and settled here.
Looking at Taijier, who was asleep due to illness, Yun Jue decided to go out of here to get medicine from the outside world. Although she and the people here try to avoid communicating as much as possible, how can she have no feelings if she has been living in the Tyre family. Since they met, she didn't want to see death without help.
When Yun Jue said what was in his heart, the Tyre family immediately refused and didn't want her to take such a risk. It is a very dangerous thing to walk in the cruel divine realm of the god realm without natural divine power.
However, Yun Jue had already made up his mind, and set off to appease the Tyre family. And she just returned the innate divine power that belonged to the god of the dragon, and her illusion magic and divine power as the god of the cloud were still there, as long as she was careful enough to avoid the god of the evil god and the god of the fang that she had offended.
Out of this realm, she used illusion to conjure up an ordinary-looking goddess, a passerby who people forgot when they saw it.
In order to ensure safety, she also specially found a remote medical hall, not only took the medicine that could cure Tygil, but also took some more ordinary medicines to bring back to the Tyre family in case of emergency.
When she finished buying everything and walked out of the medicine hall, a large sedan chair passed by, and just as a gust of wind lifted the corner of the sedan curtain, Yun Jue happened to catch a glimpse of the person sitting inside was an unexpected acquaintance!
How could a Buddha sit in a sedan chair?
Before she could think about it, the sedan chair had already been lifted by a burst of gongs and drums.
What's going on?
