Chapter 62: Black Tide
"White!"
It took three days before the sound of surprise could be heard from the cave.
"Wu, is the salt refined?"
The cat lady didn't wait for Mu Bai to answer, so she reached out and put a small piece of the white salt foam condensed on the side of the stone pot into her mouth.
"It's salt! Not bitter! ”
Instantly, her eyes lit up.
"The salt tastes so good!"
Wu Yuan smacked her mouth, knowing that she had just eaten a mouthful of salt, and she didn't know what kind of delicious food she had eaten!
As for it?
This has never seen the world as it is.
Mu Bai gave her a roll of his eyes very disdainfully.
But she didn't know that salt was indeed a very precious thing in the plains.
Although in the past, when the Yanlong tribe was in the ancestral land, they also exchanged animal meat for salt.
But that's only the strongest people in the tribe who can get a little bit. Wu Yuan was still an unawakened cub at that time, where was he qualified to eat salt?
Isn't it like you've never seen the world?
That night, the Yanlong tribe ate stew with salt.
The crowd was so excited that they burst into tears, and Mu Bai understood the scarcity of salt.
Immediately, I was also overjoyed.
"I heard you say that in the past, when we were in the ancestral land, we could exchange animal meat for salt, so now that we have salt, can we also exchange it for other things?"
Mu Bai looked at Mang expectantly.
They had talked about the issue of salt before, and it was that time that gave Mu Bai a misleading signal, and they thought that salt had been popularized in the Mangyuan, but the Yanlong tribe was forced to wander and could not eat it.
"Yes."
Mang nodded.
In fact, he had long been thinking about connecting with other tribes.
It's just that the rainy season is coming soon, and he has been recuperating for a while because of his injury, but he hasn't broken through, and he hasn't hunted many fierce beasts.
There is no exchange of things, and naturally there is no need to go out.
Now that the tribe can produce salt, life will be better.
Although his face was calm, his heart was like boiling water, hot and restless!
And all this was brought by this skinny witch in front of him.
"Wait, when the rainy season passes, when the weather improves, I'll take some people out."
Mang said regretfully.
In fact, if it weren't for the rainy season, he would have wanted to go out now.
"If you can, then can you change some fierce beast Neidan at that time?" Mu Bai's heart is hot.
If Mu Bai still has something to ask for here, it must be the fierce beast Neidan!
Not to mention how her cultivation has changed dramatically after eating two Neidan, and the only possible way home is the altar.
And it takes a lot of naidan to activate the altar.
Although she has lived a good life in this Yanlong tribe these days, she is not an ancient person after all, and it is better to go back if she can go back!
Mang nodded, he was also looking at Yan and thinking.
Although salt is said to be in their tribe and in the hands of witches, it is magically light, but it is extremely precious to other tribes.
He had to think about how the exchange would ensure the best benefit.
That night, the cave was full of noise.
Everyone is excited about the upcoming show.
It was until late at night, and only after exhaustion did they fall asleep one by one.
The hope of the revitalization and rise of the tribe seems to be accompanied by the refining of salt, and it suddenly rises from everyone's hearts.
Even Mang, who is the calmest on weekdays, forgot to observe the changes in the weather.
Early the next morning, most people still wake up on time under the control of their biological clock.
This includes Mu Bai.
"What's going on? Not yet dawn? ”
In other words, she was woken up by freezing.
Ever since she discovered the hot springs, she has had a lot of hay collected.
She didn't waste the time between refining salt, and brought a lot of straw mats out with people.
Sleeping in a nest made of straw mats, covered with animal skins, and a fire burning in the fire pit next to it, the quality of sleep at night skyrocketed.
Every morning after dawn, there are still embers in the fire pit, the fire is still not extinguished, and the temperature is just right.
But today is different, there are no sparks in the fire pit, but it is still dark in the cave.
Even on rainy days, there was a faint light coming in from the mouth of the cave and the mouth of the flue that stretched out.
"Whew~Roar~"
Just when Mu Bai was wondering, thinking that he had been suffocated in this cave for so many days, was there something wrong with his life, and a roar suddenly came from far and near.
In the end, it seems to explode in my ears!
Many of the cubs who were still asleep were woken up in fright, and then they tore their throats and cried.
For a moment, the roar outside and the noise in the cave rang out.
No one dared to go out and take a look, and everyone looked at Mang with a look of horror.
"I'll take a look." Mang was awakened, in fact, he was ready to go out to investigate.
As soon as he left, everyone approached Mu Bai again, and they were so frightened that they didn't even dare to breathe.
Even these natives, the ancient people, didn't know what was going on, and Mu Bai was even more confused.
The shouting outside continued.
She was actually frightened, but when she saw that everyone was scared like quails, she had to hold on and try to pretend to be calm.
"How?" Seeing the vague figure coming from a distance, Mu Bai hurriedly asked.
"It's a black wave."
Mu Bai could hear Mang's muffled voice, and it was a very tricky weather when he heard it.
"What will happen to the weather?"
Mu Bai breathed a sigh of relief.
The most feared thing is the unknown. As long as the name can be called, it means that there is experience to learn from.
But the next moment she knew she had guessed wrong again.
"What is the Black Wind?" It was the voice of the black circle trembling in fear.
"I also heard the old chief mention it by chance." Mang looked at Mu Bai.
"It's weather unique to the edge."
"The black wind is howling outside, sand and rocks are flying between the sky and the earth, and you can't open your eyes when you go out. And ......"
At this, he hesitated.
"There could also be landslides and ground cracks."
Ahh
Mu Bai was stunned on the spot.
It's cold and snowy outside, and flying sand and rocks are definitely not, but the scene of ice and snow flying all over the sky is also very moving.
If you add the landslide and the earth crack, what kind of hell will it be?
Mu Bai turned his head to look at the cave where everyone was currently staying, and his eyes were full of melancholy.
If there is a real earthquake, will this cave still be inhabited?
What should they do?
"Probably not, that's what the old chief said."
Mang may have seen that everyone's faces had become extremely ugly, so he added a reassuring sentence.
"That's good, it's windy outside, let's just not go out for a few days!"
Wu Yuan patted his chest heartlessly and put his heart down.
Infected by her, most of the tribesmen were relieved.
Leaving in twos and threes, lighting a fire, cooking and cooking, no matter how dark it is outside, anyway, a new day has started again.
Only the gloom in Mang and Mu Bai's eyes was even worse.
Especially Mu Bai.
But when it comes to probability, it's definitely not better to meet her.
Otherwise, how could she have bumped into this one-of-a-kind crossing?
"Have you ever seen a landslide crack in the ground?" Carrying people on his back, Mu Bai asked in a low voice.
All she wanted now was that the earthquake here would be milder than she thought.
"No, but the old chief said it horribly."
Mang's face sank as if he could bring out water.
Mu Bai's heart was raised even higher.
