famine queen

Chapter 51

"What do you mean?" Jin Mang was confused.

The old man took a bite of the barbecue, stretched out his hand, opened and clenched his fingers.

He asked, "Have you ever seen an evening bird?"

Jinmang nodded, the evening bird is a very magical insect unique to Anze.When she first saw them, she thought they were birds.Later, it was Qingsui who told her that this snow-white bird that looked like a crane was actually a kind of insect called the morning and evening insect gathered after death.

Day and night bugs are insects that are barely visible to the naked eye, they are light and white.When they died, it happened to be a very windy and windy season.A large number of morning and evening insects were brought together by the wind, and finally turned into morning and evening birds.

Morning and evening birds can only live for one day without eating or drinking.

As if for the world to actually see them, not wanting to be forgotten.

Anyway, in the view of Jin Mang, who believes in science, the morning and evening bird is a very unscientific and mysterious existence.

"You mean... ferocious beasts are the same as morning and night birds?" Jin Mang frowned.

"It can only be said that they are relatively similar." The old man exhaled and said, "When I was young, I was fortunate enough to witness the birth of a fierce beast. At that time, I only saw the violent wind blowing, forming a vortex like a tornado, and the vortex disappeared. When the time comes, the beast will appear."

"In Anze, everyone has various speculations about the origin of the beast. Some say that the beast is the same as the morning and evening bird. It is formed by the wind engulfing the corpse of an unknown creature. Some say that the beast is a special species of Anze. Some say that the beast Beasts are a branch of man...these are all unfounded."

"However, there is one thing that everyone agrees on."

The old man said lightly: "The more people and animals die, the more beasts there will be."

"You mean..." Jin Mang couldn't help but widen his eyes.

Every person and animal that dies at this moment will lead to the birth of a new beast?

The old man did not answer her question directly, but said: "The tribes in the Basin live at the gate of Anze all the year round. According to them, there will be fierce beasts born in Anze during non-split seasons, but the fierce beasts at that time It is not as high as it is now, and its strength is not as strong as what we see now. In short, the tribes in the basin can solve it. And... the beast meat born in the non-split season only has a satiety effect, and has no other special effects."

Jin Mang was stunned.

Can it be...

The old man sighed and said, "According to what I know about Baiyun, we estimate that we will go straight into the forest soon."

Jin Mang was startled, then thought for a while, and then understood why he said that.

In the past when there were fierce beast riots, most of the large troops would enter the forest after all the fierce beasts had been dealt with, so as to preserve the old, weak and hoofed animals to the greatest extent. He rushed directly into the forest and took advantage of the birth of the beasts to finish them off.

Sure enough, the team soon began to move.

The old man said to Jin Mang and the three grannies, "Let's go back quickly."

Needless to say, Jin Mang and the three old ladies also have this plan. If this society is separated from the tribe, it will take a lot of effort to reunite in the future.And they are old and young, and when the ferocious beast riot is over, those ferocious beasts will not turn a blind eye to them.Especially Jin Mang, fierce beasts are so cute that they eat human cubs like her.

"It's just a pity for the beast meat." Jin Mang couldn't help but glanced at the beast meat left on the ground.

She didn't even eat a tenth of the beasts she hunted...

"Don't be a pity." The old man said indifferently: "As long as you can still hunt fierce beasts, you don't have to worry about not being able to eat the meat of fierce beasts. The meat of fierce beasts in the forest is even more tender."

Uh... that's a bit evil.

It was not easy for Jin Mang to return to the Youying tribe. Fortunately, the Youying tribe was not at the front end—the front end was usually the basin tribe and the sea tribe, and the departure was relatively slow, so she was able to catch up in time.

Seeing her come back, Grandma breathed a sigh of relief, with a smile on her face.

She was afraid that her granddaughter would not be able to catch up.

"How? Is there any help?" There was no young man pushing the grain cart, and everyone simply pushed the cart underneath.Grandma pulled Jin Mang to her side to check if she was injured.

Jin Mang nodded, "I killed several beasts."

Seeing her tired face, the grandmother said: "Go to the grain truck and sleep for a while, I will call you if something happens."

Jin Mang showed hesitation, don't say it, she really wants to sleep now, but... except for the seriously injured Orange Flower, other children like Hei Long are all pushing the cart below.

"Go." Saying this, Grandma carried her to the grain cart without allowing her to refuse.

Jin Mang wanted to say something, but Cheng Zhu on the side said: "It's okay, your small body is heavy, we can push it. You help me take care of Hua Hua on the top, if she wakes up, call me."

The other children also responded.

At the beginning, these children felt somewhat uncomfortable about Jin Mang's special treatment, especially the children older than Jin Mang.At that time, they didn't think that Jin Mang was so powerful. They felt that if the elders were willing to help, they would not be unable to kill the cubs of the beast. Jin Mang was just favored.

Until they met the beast in person, and realized that even the cubs of the beast were not something they could easily shake, until they saw Jin Mang kill the beast with their own eyes, and easily lifted the finger of the beast that was imprisoned by Orange Blossom. Cut off, they were convinced.

Jin Mang didn't think much about it, he was really tired and fell asleep not long after.

She woke up again because the grain truck hit something and stopped abruptly.

"What's wrong?" Jin Mang sat up in shock.

"It's all right." Grandma said quickly, "It just hit a tree."

"That's right." Orange Stone on the side also comforted her: "You sleep for a while, it's actually safer to go into the woods. The beasts here are all newborn cubs. Covering up, we are often not found, or it is inconvenient to move if we are found."

Even so, Jin Mang didn't sleep anymore.There was no water to wash her face, so she simply rubbed her face vigorously to wake herself up, and then asked, "Have we encountered a cub of a beast?"

"I encountered it once, but at that time the distance was relatively far, it was useless for us to take action, and there were tribes nearby to solve it." Lukui said.

Jin Mang blinked and asked curiously, "How tall is it?" The age of a beast can often be judged by its height, and she is quite experienced in this regard.

"About half the height of this tree." Orange Bamboo pointed to a tree beside him.

When Jin Mang saw it, he was startled, is he so short?

She glanced at the orange blossom that had woken up and was lying listlessly, and asked thoughtfully, "Can you...can you bite the knife?"
