[Crossing the Farm] The witch doctor rises up

"What?" Several men who were closer to Wu Di exclaimed in unison, their eyeballs almost popping out.Others were also clamoring, but no surprise, they didn't quite believe what Wu Di said just now.

"How do you know that our place will be destroyed?" An older man calmed down and looked at Wu Di with a little doubt in his eyes—even if Wu Di was an envoy of God, but suddenly said such words, they It's impossible for him to say what he said so stupidly, right? !

"Do you still remember the wild beasts attacking the tribe a few months ago? In fact, it was not accidental..." After Wu Di said this, seeing that the noisy voice just now quieted down, he continued, "Everyone knows that the Bu tribe The anger of the mountain god and the pungent smell of the water here from time to time. In fact, the number of fish in the river has decreased, and the number of wild animals in the forest has suddenly increased... These are the precursors of the volcanic eruption. I don’t know I know how far the volcano is from our tribe, but if we can already feel these changes here, it means that when the volcano erupts, the place where the tribe is located will be implicated sooner or later! Therefore, in order to save our lives, we must abandon this place Evacuate to a safe place."

Under the light of the torch, Wu Di's face was determined, making people want to believe what he said involuntarily.

"But the river god will bless us..." Frightened by Wu Di's words, the noisy crowd just now could be heard quietly dropping needles, but there was a weak voice in the crowd who refuted without confidence.

Although they knew that these words were not very powerful, some people in the tribe were still shaken in their hearts - yes, the river god will bless them.

It's not that they have any other ideas, it's mainly because of a "home-loving" emotion.

Wu Di put it simply, evacuate.But evacuate?Where to withdraw?The Youhe Tribe that belonged to them, which was established with great difficulty, could not be kept in less than half a year?Could it be that they are destined to be abandoned by the river god and can no longer rely on the river god to live?

Thinking of this, that part of the people felt terrified and didn't want to leave no matter what.

The patriarch already knew what Wu Di said, so when he heard this weak retort, he just looked awe-inspiring: "Do you know what a 'volcanic eruption' is?" Outlined a fiery picture of purgatory for everyone with concise words, and everyone was frightened in place-would even the river disappear, "So, in order to prevent such a tragedy from happening, we must leave immediately!"

Hearing the words of the patriarch, the people of the tribe became agitated again, but no one immediately carried out the order.

This is where they lived for nearly half a year after being attacked by wild animals. They hunted, worked and lived here.This is their home, with a deep sense of belonging.But now, the inexplicable "volcanic eruption" has not even been seen, and they are naturally very reluctant to let them go. Most of them are lucky and want to wait and see for a while-after all, they have never met before. Having been to such a natural disaster, I don't have such a deep understanding of the seriousness of this disaster.

Time is life, but these people are still hesitating, asking questions, wasting time and life.Wu Di frowned, raised his eyes, and saw Gong running over with a big bag and something in his hands in the distance. He was relieved, but he was even more unwilling to argue with them anymore.

Taking a deep breath, Wu Di said: "Since everyone knows that I am an envoy sent by the God of the River, then everyone, listen carefully, once the volcano erupts, we will not even have time to escape, so we can only do it in this matter." Before it happens, try to escape as far as possible. If you don’t want to be buried alive by the hot lava, please pack up your things quickly and rush back to the square as quickly as possible.”

After speaking, he didn't have the patience to repeat it over and over again, and was about to step off the stage and stay by Gong's side.

However, just as he turned around, the ground suddenly shook, causing the crowd who had been hesitant just now to panic and scream.

It's an earthquake!

Fortunately, the earthquake only lasted more than ten seconds, even so, a few big trees were still shaking and fell down, and several caves were also shaken from stones.

Everyone who had never experienced an earthquake felt the horror of the sky collapsing just now, and when they saw this scene again, everyone was in a mess like a group of ants whose nest had been punctured.

"Everyone, don't panic!" Wu Di was also taken aback by the unexpected earthquake just now. He ran to Gong's side in three steps and two steps, hugged him tightly, and then yelled at the panicked crowd, "The earthquake has already started. Don't panic or run around. Now that the earthquake is temporarily stopped, everyone pack up your things as quickly as possible and gather at this place! Bring animal skins and one or two tools, clay pots, stone tools, etc. Don’t take it with you! Get ready, come and follow me to make a few stretchers and crutches to bring the wounded!”

At this time, the people with pale and chaotic faces didn't dare to stay and wait and see when they heard Wu Di's orderly order, and hurriedly went back to their caves to pack their things without any delay.

And Gong, who had packed up in advance, put the things aside for the time being, and together with Wu Di helped find strong and strong branches, tied animal skins with vines, and prepared to make a stretcher.

Ji took a look at the interaction between his son and Wu Di, temporarily put aside the worries and comforts in his heart, as well as all kinds of inexplicable and complicated feelings, and prepared to help.

******

"Brother Wu Di, leave here, where are we going?" Bai who had already packed his things asked in a trance.

"Leave first. I don't decide where to go alone. We will discuss it together after we leave here temporarily. Anyway, it can't be worse than this place." Wu Di, Gong and Hui carried a wounded man onto a stretcher , rubbed between his brows, strode away to look at another one.

With Wu Di's words, and the fact that the mountains were shaking and the ground shaking just now, no one dared to delay, and quickly packed up their respective things, and gathered in the square with their backs.

Ji Ji counted the number of people and made sure that none of the old, young, women, children, or wounded were left behind. With a big wave of his hand, he headed east—because the east is a plain, and there are few hills around, so there is no need to worry about the collapse of the mountains or other dangers.

******

Because they wanted to escape from danger, everyone in the Youhe tribe did not dare to stop for a moment.

Only when the sun slanted westward and night covered the earth did everyone dare to slow down their pace a little.

At this moment they were outside the woods, Wu Di found a relatively open place, and asked everyone to stop and cook for a while, while he rushed to the wounded to check their injuries and change their dressings.

Just when they were about to put some prepared jerky on the fire to heat up, the ground suddenly shook.

Because Wu Di popularized some basic knowledge about how to deal with earthquakes along the way, although they were still pale with fright, they were not as panicked as they were the first time they met, running and screaming.

This earthquake only lasted more than ten seconds, but it made everyone more convinced of Wu Di's "volcanic eruption" theory.

While everyone was chewing the barbecue and thinking about the pottery pots they left in the cave for cooking soup, the "spies" who were left not far from the tribe came running out of breath: "Clan, patriarch God's envoy! Sure enough, there were a lot of dead fish in that river!"

Hearing his words, the crowd who were still complaining that the roasted meat was not as juicy as the stewed meat and not as tender as the fried meat immediately surrounded him: "What's the matter?"

"What the hell happened?"

"Is it like what the envoy said?"

After this incident, everyone unknowingly changed the name of Wu Di back to God's Envoy.

Wu Di is too lazy to spend time asking them to change their names at this time - as long as the people he agrees with are still the same as before.

"Didn't the envoy worry about the impact of that 'volcanic eruption' at that time, so..."

"Jump over, Pan! Get to the point!"

"...Ahem, well, all in all, when I noticed that the smell of the river water became more and more unpleasant, the caves we lived in began to drop rocks!"

In the Youhe Tribe, the caves they live in are still similar to cave dwellings—that is, they borrow natural or artificial caves, use stone tools to create a space that can tolerate one to three people, and then It's done.Originally, before they formed a tribe, they would tirelessly move big rocks to block the entrance of the cave every day, but after forming a tribe and having patrol personnel every day, they abandoned this very time-consuming and labor-intensive thing.

"what?"

"Really?!"

"God of the river! Fortunately, we escaped..."

"And then?"

"You don't know, there's a mountain that's so—high, it just crumbles to pieces! I started running as soon as I saw that, but when I got to the edge of the woods, I could still hear the voices and see the sky And those thick ash raised!"

Pan is not good-looking, but the expressions on his face are particularly rich, so following his narration and actions, all the people around him seem to have personally seen the kind of mountain cracking that will change their daily life. The scene of the instant burial in the place where they were buried, could not help but open their mouths with pale faces, and each of them looked stunned and dumbfounded.

"Then...does it mean that the earthquake we felt before was actually...?" The one with rich associations has already stammered.

As soon as he opened his mouth, the others gasped in unison—Oh my God, if this was the case, they could feel like an earthquake shaking the ground, how terrifying would be the collapsing hills!

In an instant, the people in the tribe felt cold all over their bodies.

If it wasn't for the divine emissary to remind everyone to evacuate, what would have happened?I'm afraid they have already been smashed to pieces and buried in the corpse cave.

Thinking of this, everyone looked at the indifferent Wu Di in unison, with fanatical admiration and deep gratitude in their eyes - the envoy saved the lives of those who were attacked by wild beasts, and found enough for them to survive. All kinds of food also make their life more convenient.This time, let all the fallen people be saved from natural disasters, let them struggle from death and despair, and run towards light and hope...

Now Wu Di is not only the messenger sent by the river god to replace the dead red leaf witch doctor, to save the tribal people from disease and pain, but also the messenger sent by God to rescue them and let them swim the river tribe Hope to survive!

As expected of an envoy of God!It really is different!

Seeing Wu Di's calm expression, everyone who was panicked by the scene of the collapse of the hills depicted vividly and vividly calmed down instantly - what are you afraid of?They also have envoys, as long as they follow the envoys closely, they will not lose their lives!

At this time, Wu Di, who was pinned on by everyone in the Youhe Tribe, had no idea that he was under such a great pressure. He was still paralyzed with a face and was using a stick to fork a piece of sour orange juice. Gong fed it from his mouth: "Eat more, I am very tired from the journey."

As for what he said just now, Wu Di said that as long as he follows his plan, 80.00% of them will not be affected by any volcanic eruption or earthquake landslide.

******

Although Wu Di is very confident, this is a primitive society after all, and after listening to Pan's description, everyone is more afraid of volcanic eruptions, earthquakes and landslides, so after dinner, they only slept for about three or four hours. It seemed that they all woke up one after another, and could no longer fall back asleep.

Seeing that they had slowed down, Wu Di didn't waste any time, so he called everyone to light the torches—to scare off the wild beasts—and continued on their way.

In this way, I was on the road for about ten hours a day, and the rest of the time was to catch some small animals, dig some grass roots, pick some fruits to fill my stomach and sleep.In this way, in just four or five days, they have already walked out of the grassland outside the forest where their tribe is located.

Because they were heading east, faster than the direction they had headed for the Tribal Gathering.

After leaving the grassland, everyone breathed a sigh of relief - because they also felt no less than dozens of subtle earthquakes along the way, and even saw some animals running wildly in groups.Only then did they realize why those animals didn't hide from humans when they faced them. It was simply because compared to the devastating natural disasters, humans were so weak that they couldn't even be counted as scum— A new problem was discovered.

What appeared in front of them were mountain ranges one after another.

Mountain!

Probably because of the landslide that destroyed their former tribal settlement, they now tremble when they see the mountain—what if a landslide accidentally occurs or there is a volcano on the mountain that suddenly erupts?

Although they don't know it very well, it doesn't prevent them from thinking about things in a bad way.

It's not that they are pessimistic, but what they have seen and heard along the way is enough to make them cautious.

But they didn't have time to think too much, because the sky darkened quickly, accompanied by rumbling thunder and pale lightning, a heavy rain that was not expected by everyone after nearly a month was about to fall!

If you don't want to get in the rain or be struck by lightning, you have to go into the mountains!
