Chapter 231: The Cave
After defeating a person, Su Xiaoxia easily entered the tribe, Batu gave Su Xiaoxia ten catties of dried meat and two pots of mare's milk wine, and their tribe's horses also gave Su Xiaoxia a horse.
Getting a good horse can speed up the journey, and the first half a month only walks thousands of miles, and the speed of the journey is too slow.
The food was only sent by Batu, and he wanted to buy it, but he shirked it one by one, and it seemed that he couldn't buy food, so Su Xiaoxia didn't stay for a long time, and tied the package to the new horse.
Looking at the unused horses, Su Xiaoxia asked, "Batu, I'll exchange the horse for some jerky and mare's milk wine with you." ”
Batu looked at the horse that Su Xiaoxia was riding in front of him, stupidly didn't pull a few pieces, there were not a few taels of meat on his body, Batu shook his head and said: "Your horse bloodline is too poor, our tribe doesn't want it, even if you kill meat, you can't kill a few taels of meat." ”
It's a pity that they don't want it, and Su Xiaoxia won't take it, so they let it go directly, whether they can survive on the prairie depends on the luck of this horse.
Su Xiaoxia jumped on the horse, the package was not tied and fell to the ground, Batu picked it up for Su Xiaoxia, and was surprised to see the grassland inside: "Miss Su, you have so many herbs, you can exchange herbs and tribes for food." ”
Looking at the package in Batu's hand, those herbs can be seen everywhere in the grassland, and in Su Xiaoxia's opinion, it is really worthless.
Can you exchange it for food, Su Xiaoxia still asked, "How much food can you give in exchange?"
Batu looked at the herbs and said, "Eighty catties of jerky and ten pots of mare's milk wine." ”
Hearing the price, Su Xiaoxia was surprised, nomads regard food very seriously, according to them, it is about to pass the winter, and various tribes are stockpiling food, and food is rarely sold.
Su Xiaoxia didn't speak, and Batu spoke again: "Miss Su, one hundred catties of jerky and fifteen pots of mare's milk wine, plus a pot of barley wine, this is the most food we can take out." ”
Without being in a hurry to speak, Batu directly increased the price, Su Xiaoxia was in a good mood, and said happily: "Okay, you go and prepare food, and exchange the herbs for your tribe." ”
Su Xiaoxia waited outside, looking at the grassland, not knowing how long she needed to walk before she could reach the center of the grassland, according to the information provided by the tribe now, inside the grassland, there was only a mountain in the center of the grassland.
A desolate mountain, even if you walk near the mountain, few people will climb the mountain, and no one will know what is on the mountain.
After waiting for a quarter of an hour, Batu came over with a group of people, looking at the jerky and mare's milk wine they brought, Su Xiaoxia dismounted and asked them to help tie it up.
An old man handed Su Xiaoxia a kettle, crossed his hands on his chest, lowered his head and said, "Thank you Miss Su for giving us tribal herbs, with your dried herbs, our tribe can rest assured that we can survive the cold winter." ”
Su Xiaoxia took the kettle, opened it, and found that the kettle was also wine, not mare's milk wine, it was probably Batu who said barley.
Regarding the old man's words, Su Xiaoxia said disapprerovantly: "We are just trading, you don't have to care." ”
Su Xiaoxia said that there was no need to care, but in the eyes of others, herbs could save many lives, how could they not care.
On the prairie, there are countless herbs, and the nomads who can make dry herbs without losing their medicinal effect basically can't do it, they have been studying how to make dry herbs, and there are very few tribes that can make dry herbs, and the production methods are not passed on.
Su Xiaoxia didn't know what they were thinking, she didn't want to have too much to do with the nomads, so she left the tribe directly and walked into the uninhabited prairie.
Three months have passed, Su Xiaoxia came to the center of the prairie in embarrassment, looking at the mountains in front of her, Su Xiaoxia was physically and mentally exhausted, and in these three months, she never met the nomadic tribe again.
The weather is getting colder and colder, Su Xiaoxia wears silk to make clothes, in the immortal tomb, he can't keep out the cold, Su Xiaoxia uses weeds to weave them and wrap them around his body to keep out the cold.
The weather is getting colder and colder, there is nothing to eat, the horses starved to death, and Su Xiaoxia was disemboweled, made of dried meat and eaten, after having the animal skin, Su Xiaoxia had a little warmth.
After there was no horse, Su Xiaoxia walked tens of thousands of miles on two legs before he came to the mountain.
Accustomed to seeing the mountains outside, the peaks of a few hundred meters in front of him are really small, it is snowing on the mountain, it is too dangerous to go up now, Su Xiaoxia is forced to rest at the foot of the mountain.
The food had already been eaten, Su Xiaoxia only had a pot of barley wine left, took a sip when he was hungry, and waited at the foot of the mountain for three days, finally no more snowing, and Su Xiaoxia also began to climb the mountain.
The cave is located on the mountainside, more than three hundred meters below the foot of the mountain, and Su Xiaoxia stepped on the snow and walked to it.
Walking on the snow made it even colder, Su Xiaoxia had to go up, there was nothing to eat below, and sooner or later he would starve to death in the prairie.
You can find the cave, and maybe you can find something inside the cave.
From the morning to the up, until the evening, Su Xiaoxia arrived at the mountainside, the specific location of the cave is not clear, and Su Xiaoxia needs to find it by himself.
As the days passed, Su Xiaoxia ran out of food, there was nothing to eat or drink on his body, and he had no choice but to eat the snow when he was hungry, Su Xiaoxia sat on a stone, grabbed the snow and ate, his eyes were blank, looking at the dark sky.
The weather is not good, it seems that it is going to snow again, and if it snows, it will be more difficult to find the cave, Su Xiaoxia is not resting, walking hard, and continuing to look for the cave.
Detouring from the front of the mountain to the back of the mountain, there is no cave, there is no place to look, only a steep position in front of you, there are snowflakes, and it is very difficult and dangerous to walk in a steep position.
There were small snowflakes floating in the sky, and he couldn't wait, Su Xiaoxia walked over cautiously, hunched and walked forward, not a big place, Su Xiaoxia looked for a day, and the night was coming soon, Su Xiaoxia finally saw a big hole.
The entrance of the cave is less than a meter large, I don't know if it is the cave she is looking for, Su Xiaoxia still walked over, she wanted to go over to confirm whether this was her destination.
The wind and snow are getting bigger and bigger, Su Xiaoxia is swaying, and she may be blown away at any time, she is still insisting on walking forward, she can't say that she is leaving, the wind is too strong, Su Xiaoxia is already lying on the snow and crawling forward.
Can't see the entrance of the cave, Su Xiaoxia moved forward with her memory, I don't know if it's an illusion, the closer she gets to the entrance of the cave, the more relaxed her body becomes, and she feels that there is inexhaustible strength in her body.
Approaching the entrance of the cave, Su Xiaoxia still didn't breathe a sigh of relief, the ground shook and the mountains shook, it was still snowing, and there was an avalanche, Su Xiaoxia looked up, and countless ice and snow rushed down above.
Su Xiaoxia's location happened to be the avalanche route, the place with the most ice and snow mountains and rocks, Su Xiaoxia was too late to dodge now, she was still two meters away from the entrance of the cave.
Even if she wanted to stand up and run in, the whole mountain was shaking, Su Xiaoxia couldn't stand up at all, she had nowhere to hide, and she was buried directly.
