It was already night when Ke Si and Lin Xu went back, and the tribe had already lit the lights. At this time, the temperature was getting lower and lower. Except for the guards, most of the tribe were in the room. They would chat and eat some barbecue. Small snacks such as potatoes are as happy as a family.The storm outside cannot hurt them a bit.

The newcomers were invited to each house to eat, chat or whatever, Hull arranged.Lin Xu could see them sitting and laughing together from the open window, it seemed that all the haze had disappeared, and the dark clouds floating in their hearts had also dissipated.

Obviously it was still bitingly cold outside, but I regained my confidence in life.

Lin Xu had already told Ke Si on the way that two new tribes had arrived, but Ke Si didn't say anything. He asked about the number of people, and felt that the tribe had more than enough supplies, so he wasn't too worried.

The old priest left at noon, and Ande was in charge of escorting him back, and took more than a dozen warriors with him, all of whom were strong and brave warriors who were not afraid of the severe cold.It is the elite force of the tribe.If people can be brought back, the tribe can increase its population by nearly two hundred at a time.This is a very big gain for Lin Xu.

Only when there are more people can we engage in more production and make this small society more stable.

However, this is just the tip of the iceberg, and Lin Xu does not intend to rest there.

He still has more tribes to visit, and Lin Xu doesn't want to keep procrastinating on this matter. Expansion of tribes must be done as soon as possible.

Lin Xu is really tired these days. He feels that he has never walked so many roads, and he is still walking in the forest without professional hiking boots. Even though his body has been transformed by the "law", he is still human after all. .

Lin Xu yawned, feeling that he could barely keep his eyes open, and all the muscles in his body reminded him that he should rest.So Lin Xu also planned to chat with Kesi again or summarize his work. He drank a cup of hot water, washed his face and feet, and put on his pajamas to get into the warm bed.

But Ke Si didn't plan to go to bed so early. His frostbite was almost healed, and he was very energetic at the moment. He wanted to talk to Lin Xu, or do something indescribable.But obviously Lin Xu didn't intend to give Ke Si such an opportunity, unfortunately he was not as fast as Ke Si, when Lin Xu was about to close the door of the room, Ke Si rushed in like the wind.

He even sat on Lin Xu's bed as if he could not steal the bell.

Lin Xu had a headache and sighed: "I'm very tired, I want to rest early, I have work tomorrow."

Ke Si nodded seriously: "I will guard you."

There was no other way, Lin Xu lay down on the bed, Kesi was so big, Lin Xu could only sleep on his side after lying down, he couldn’t use any sleeping position, he turned over many times, but still couldn’t fall asleep .

In the past few days, there was a lot of pressure and a lot of things. Lin Xu hadn't slept well for a long time, and Ke Si came to squeeze his sleeping space.

About an hour later, Lin Xu still hadn't fallen asleep. He suppressed his temper and said, "Go back to your room and sleep, it's too crowded."

Kesi didn't fall asleep either. He grabbed the quilt and seemed to be beaten to death and would not get out of bed. Just kidding, he hadn't seen Lin Xu for several days.

"You talk." Lin Xu lowered his voice.

Kos remained silent.

Lin Xu got angry, he jumped up from the bed, got off the bed and put on slippers.

Kos lifted the quilt and asked, "Where are you going?"

Lin Xu opened the door: "You sleep here, I'll go to your room to sleep."

Then Kos also stood up silently.

Lin Xu laughed angrily, and held his forehead weakly: "Do you insist on following me?"

Coase defaults.

"I'm very tired and want to rest. I should have told you several times. I can't sleep well when you are here." Lin Xu suppressed his anger that was about to erupt. His head was already swollen and painful. You can fall asleep as soon as you close your eyes, but Ke Si doesn't wink at all.

"I'm watching you." Kos said without feeling that he was wrong, "I'm protecting you."

Lin Xu became furious: "I said, you have nothing to do with yourself? If you don't want to sleep, you can just go outside and run around? I want to rest! Do you understand rest? I beg you, let me sleep well."

I was most afraid of the sudden silence of the air, and the scene was once extremely embarrassing.

So Ke Si could only watch Lin Xu leave the room.

Lin Xu lay on Kesi's bed, sleeping in a running position, and fell into a deep sleep within 10 minutes.He didn't have a dream that night, and slept soundly, and didn't get up until the sun was drying his buttocks the next morning.

Lin Xu stretched his waist and rubbed his face in satisfaction.

After he put on his shoes and went to wash his face and brush his teeth, he realized that he didn't see Kesi's figure - he probably went to deal with some matters of the tribe, Lin Xu thought.

Lin Xu put on his clothes, prepared the rations and tents he was going to take away, and prepared to set off again today.He still didn't intend to take anyone with him, especially Kos.

This winter may be facing great challenges or disasters for other tribes, but it is an excellent opportunity for Lin Xu. He can exchange the largest population with the smallest cost.As long as the resident population of the tribe can be maintained to 1000 or more, many things can be planned.

On the other side, Ke Si is patrolling with Hull. He looks expressionless, the same as usual, but Hull can feel Ke Si's depression keenly. Hull is being nourished by love now, and his whole body They all exude the sour smell of love, everything is beautiful, even the falling snow on the ground is pure and beautiful in his eyes.

"Did Chris scold you?" Hull asked as he walked, but he wasn't worried about Kos. After all, he was not much better than Kos when he pursued Dodeya before. After all, Chris didn't beat him.

Kos didn't speak, but his expression revealed his true thoughts.

Hull gloated, but he couldn't show it, so he could only comfort him: "Maybe Chris will forget it when he gets up early, it's not a big deal, just go and apologize."

"He's angry," said Coase in a muffled voice.

"Who hasn't been angry before." Hull continued to comfort, "Be more sincere and say that you won't be like this again in the future. It should be...you'll be fine."

Although they have never experienced Lin Xu's bad temper, they still have a deep respect for Chris.

Kos sighed, with the goose feather heavy snow, it really looks like a bitter scene, only the background music is missing.

Obviously he just wanted to sleep with Lin Xu, Ke Si was a little wronged, but he still kept silent, and he didn't want to hear Hull keep saying in his ear that Ke Si walked away.

Hull was left alone with a stomach full of words.

Not long after Lin Xu left the tribe, he watched An De lead a group of people back in a mighty way. These people are old priests and belong to his tribe. There are men, women, old and young, old, weak, sick and disabled, and they are supporting each other tightly. Following in An De's footsteps, the children fell asleep in the arms of their parents, and the mother would breastfeed the children once in a while crying.Their pace is not fast, but very steady.

The old priest was taken care of by the warriors sent by the tribe. The warriors ate well and slept well. The clothes didn't look thick but they were very warm. It was not difficult to take care of a skinny old man.

Lin Xu took a rough look and felt that the number of people should be around 100.An De was already greeting Lin Xu from a long distance away. As soon as he got closer, all the warriors began to salute Lin Xu.

"Be careful on the road. If someone's body can't stand it, slow down and don't be in a hurry." Lin Xu instructed, "You should also pay more attention to the surrounding environment, and run if you find something wrong."

Andy nodded, and said very seriously: "I know, don't worry."

In front of his subordinates, Ander still has the temperament of a leader and looks very reliable.At least not as jumping off in front of Lin Xu and Ke Si.He is in good spirits, and it is not difficult for him to escort these people back to the tribe. He is naturally suitable for running outside, not for sitting in an office.

"Go, I have other things." Lin Xu watched An De and the others leave, and he once again embarked on a journey that he didn't know whether it would be long or short.

This time, Lin Xu walked for a long time. After walking for nearly half a month, he saw the smoke from the campfire.

But he didn't approach it hastily. After observing for a while, Lin Xu found that this place was probably a market for people buying and selling.There are warriors patrolling around, but there are very few tribes that buy people. All Lin Xu sees are some small tribes bringing people over, standing aside tremblingly in tattered animal skins in the ice and snow, waiting for people to come. pick.

These should be members of those small tribes, not slaves.Because the people who took care of them didn't beat or scold them, or didn't give them food, and sometimes boiled hot water for them to drink.

I don't know how many days this market has been going on. Lin Xu also saw three small tribes, including the patriarchs and priests standing on the trading platform, ready to sell the whole tribe.But no one bought it, probably because it was no longer worthwhile to replace people with jerky. This kind of whole tribe sells it. Generally speaking, it is not sold as a slave, but as a sub-family of a large tribe.

The big tribe feeds them, and they do things for the big tribe.

This method has always been there, and there were not many in the past.

But now, the big tribes can't take care of themselves, and they don't even have extra food to ensure the lives of their own people, so how can they take it out to support another group of people.Even if the patriarchs and priests agree, ordinary clansmen will never agree.

Lin Xu hid in the dark and observed for a long time, and found that this market is completely open, and there is no need for tokens or the like, as long as you go in without a weapon.Of course, after buying people, provide some dried meat as a reward to the tribe who maintains the market.

However, Lin Xu didn't bring any jerky. He didn't know how long the market would last, so he could only hide his bag, re-dyed his hair with flower juice, and went to ask the patrolling warriors.

"How long until the market is over?" Lin Xu handed over a piece of jerky.

The warrior's eyes lit up, and he immediately took the dried meat and put it into his arms, and then he looked good at Lin Xu: "When will spring come, and when will the market be over? How long will those small tribes stay here? Some hope."

Lin Xu nodded thoughtfully, packed up his things, and set foot on the road back to the tribe.

The author has something to say: the tribe will soon have a lot of people!

A big wave of zombies is coming hehehe
