Original War

Chapter 539

Surrounded by the mountains, in the wooden houses built one by one, there was a movement of crowds shouting.

At first glance, these wooden houses have been erected recently. The timber fractures are relatively new. The wooden houses are lined up here, looking like a cottage living in seclusion in this inaccessible place.

A thick wooden pillar over ten meters has been erected on the periphery, forming a fence to stop some small beasts outside. On the tall tower built, three slaves with tanned skin were standing there, each looking in three directions.

In the clearing, a huge beast bone was thrown there. The whitish bones with no shredded flesh were already disassembled so that they couldn’t see their original appearance. Only the upper eyeholes and nostrils allowed People know that this is the head of a giant beast.

The beast bones, beast horns, and teeth suitable for weapon polishing have been disassembled, and the sound of polishing bone horns can be heard everywhere. Although they brought most of the gold objects, they have consumed a lot so far. The conditions here are limited. They can only repair some gold objects that are not seriously damaged. If they exceed the repair capacity, they can only be shelved. There is no weapon to survive in this place full of fierce beasts and crises. Beast bones, beast horns, beast teeth, etc., are more convenient than stone tools. The slaves in charge of polishing, running back and forth with various utensils, seemed very busy.

Compared to the movement of other people, there is a small open space surrounded by the wooden house, where no one dares to run around, let alone shout.

A fire was burning on the open ground, and animal bones with meat pieces were grilled there. Grease dripped into the fire, making a sneer.

A relatively fair-skinned middle-aged man was sitting next to the fire. The other slaves were either dressed in tattered linen or surrounded by blood-stained animal skins. This middle-aged man wore a very clean suit. clothing. The same is linen, but the cloth weaves on his body is more detailed, and the texture is obviously different from other people. There are no holes on the clothes except for some inconspicuous scratches on the corners.

At this moment, the middle-aged man was frowning, looking at a scroll of animal skins with pictures in his hand.

There are simple pictures on the animal skin rolls. The dark green triangle-shaped ones are mountains, the large green areas without shapes are woods elsewhere, and among these greens, there is a sandy-yellow line passing through this green. , And finally ended in one place.

This is a simple map. The line on the map is the course of their team. One end of the line is where they entered the forest, and the other end is where they are at this time.

Confirming that he did not go wrong, the folds of the middle-aged man’s brows squeezed toward the middle again, and the folds became more and deeper.

Several high-level slaves standing next to them hung their heads, and only used their peripheral light to carefully pay attention to the people sitting on the rocks over there looking at the map. They knew that the other party was in a bad mood, and they did not dare to say anything, for fear that something wrong might cause this person. anger.

“It’s here, it’s not wrong!” The middle-aged man sitting on the rock murmured. Because of emotional fluctuations, the soles of the feet on the ground stepped on the ground, and the weeds under the feet were trampled out of a pit of the sole of the foot.

The slave standing next to him dropped his head lower.

The smell of meat permeates this cottage. The guards or busy slaves everywhere, sniffing their noses, the smell of meat makes them obsessed and stimulates the secretion of saliva, but even if they really want to look there, they still endure the turning of their heads and die. Staring at the work in progress, not dare to look around.

At this time, there was movement at the entrance of the cottage, and a team of twenty people came back from the outside, carrying or dragging small prey.

The middle-aged man who was staring at the map suddenly raised his eyes to look over, and just walked into the team of the temporary cottage. After seeing the opponent, his eyes were staggered, and he did not dare to look directly at the opponent.

The middle-aged man holding the animal skin roll, the expectation that had flashed in his eyes, soon dimmed, and then the anger soared rapidly.

“Still not found? How could it be possible?! Why can’t I find it!!”

The middle-aged man, whose eyes were red from anger, shook his arm and tried to smash the animal skin on the ground, but just before the smash, he paused and replaced it with a strong kick.

Animal skin rolls cannot be thrown. This is an important guideline for their action, but they can’t express their anger and feel unhappy, so they can only kick the grass on the ground.

The weeds that were higher than the knees were kicked to pieces.

“Can’t find the fangs, why use grass to vent your anger?” a lazy voice came.

The middle-aged man holding the animal skin roll heard this sound, his eyes twitched, and without looking there, he turned his head and shouted at the trembling slave standing next to him: “Let me keep looking! You don’t need to find it. gone back!!”

When they heard that they couldn’t go back, all the slaves wailed in their hearts and didn’t dare to delay. Those who had returned before that hurriedly ate something and set off again. The slaves who polished the angle bones also moved faster.

For many people, the desert is a dead place. In the dry, windy and sandy weather, it is rare to see a little green, so desolate, which makes people stay away from it.

But for this group of slaves, even if the food in the desert is not as much as these mountains and forests full of trees and beasts, they are already used to it. Many of the people in the team have been slaves for generations, and their servility has been carved into their bones. Apart from being slaves, they don’t know what to do. Moreover, in the eyes of these people, the desert rock tombs are their home, the place they are loyal to, and their belief. Not being able to go back is almost like killing them.

Now Yanling City is the overlord of the desert. The slaves of Yanling City, and You Rongyan, are more loyal to Yanling City. These people sent out are all die-hard Yanling City, don’t worry about their betrayal. .

The five hundred people who were brought out were killed or injured by the various crises in the mountains and forests on the road. Fortunately, they have found this place, but unfortunately, this place marked on the map is the destination, but they have not seen the target for several days.

The middle-aged man returned to the fire again, sat on the rock and sulked. He was too embarrassed to go back when he couldn’t find the blue-faced fangs, but there was no other way. Could he still look for the mountains here one by one?

After taking a few deep breaths, the middle-aged man couldn’t help but ask: “Pirate Four, how about your side?”

“I didn’t find it.” The three fluttering words were similar to this person’s attitude, completely indifferent, not in a hurry, and comfortable, as if they were playing, it seemed to be quite enjoyable.

“Then you guys don’t look for it yet?!” The middle-aged man almost squeezed out the words between his teeth. I really don’t understand why Shishu is looking for someone who “pirates”. What else can these people do besides stealing things? Eat it?

The Pirates walked slowly to the fire and sat down, picked up the ribs of the fierce beast that had been grilled just right, not afraid of being hot, and began to eat. While eating, he still slurred and said: “If you want to be so easy to find, you people in Yanling will not only find three in a few hundred years.”

“Oh, yes, Shiya.” Pirate Sixiang suddenly remembered something, and said again, “Some tribesmen followed.”

For Pirate Four, their “pirates” are different. They are neither slaves nor traditional tribes. He is also very satisfied with the current status of “pirates”. He thinks that they are a bit higher than ordinary tribes. Speaking of tribes, they all refer to other tribes rather than “pirates.”

“Tribal people? So fast?!” Shiya didn’t expect the tribe people to find them so quickly. Want to grab the fangs? !

Feeling the murderous aura from Shi Zhi, the Pirates still had a slow tone, “Actually, you don’t have to worry about them, maybe they can help us find the blue-faced fangs.”

Hearing this, Shiya’s eyes flashed, and he was silent, but he also approved the words of Pirate Si. They have been here these days and haven’t made any progress. Maybe those tribesmen can find something?

After eating the beast meat, the robbers didn’t leave much, and they walked out of the cottage and entered the dense woods outside. The guarding slaves just didn’t see it.

In the woods, the humid breath dispelled the heat caused by the weather, and under the branches that covered the sky, the breeze passed by, and there was a refreshing coolness.

Pirate Si walked in the woods, most of the weeds on the ground exceeded his waist, walking in it, as if trapped in a green sea.

There are no slaves in Yanling.

“How?” Pirate Si said.

Five steps away from him, on the trunk of a big tree, the outline of a person slowly appeared.

“I couldn’t figure it out.” The person who came down from the tree said in a puzzled tone, “The slaves only knew that they were going to find something this time, and no matter how many, they would not know. However, it is certain that Shiya is indeed anxious. What is the function of the blue-faced fangs?”

“We don’t know if Shiya tells us. However, we don’t need to move for the time being. Whether it’s the slaves who find the blue-faced fangs or the tribesmen find it, it’s a good thing for us.”

“clear.”

As he said, the man leaped up, stepped on the trunk and ran forward, without seeing him in the blink of an eye.

A dark-green flat long polypedal worm suddenly stood up from the thick grass, and its two pliers-like chelating teeth expanded to an exaggerated angle, and rushed towards the Pirate Si standing in the grass, but, The next At the moment, the person standing there disappeared.

The multi-legged worm who stood up half of its body flew into the air, and the two rod-shaped tentacles on its head turned like antennae, as if probing. It really couldn’t detect anything, so it gave up the prey just now and rushed under the thick grass again.

From a distance, among the green grass waves, some grass leaves are swinging, passing forward, like a ripple on the lake. Then, the blades of grass oscillated less and less until it subsided.

The woods here once again returned to their previous calm.
