Ye An

It snowed heavily all night.

In the early morning of the next day, the merchants walked out of the tent one after another, and found that the sky had cleared up, and the cold wind that had been howling all night was gone.

Under the blue sky, the clouds cleared.

The sun is shining, and the silvery white covering the earth reflects the crystal light, and the scattered snow is like gems.

The merchants walked the wilderness and saw a lot of knowledge, and it is rare to see such good weather in the snow season.

"Quick, tear down the tent and hurry!"

Before they had time to think about it, the team leader ordered at the same time, urging his subordinates to dismantle the tent and board the car quickly.

It is rare to encounter a snow stop, so we must set off before the next snowstorm and arrive at the isolated island as soon as possible to avoid being trapped on the road again.

Among the accompanying teams, more than one caravan has been to the delta, so they are familiar with the environment here.

This time, everyone can obviously feel different.

The most notable point is that the number of mutant beasts here has increased significantly, especially the large-scale deer herds. In just half a day, they encountered no less than three groups. Each group was composed of strong stags and young does. Not a small fawn.

The convoy drove across the snow-covered river, and there were traces of deer in front of it.

This is a small-scale herd of reindeer, with no more than [-] reindeer, no cubs and no doe, very similar to young stags traveling together.

"Look, what's that?" A businessman couldn't help exclaiming when he found the black-gold mane hidden in the snow through the car window.

The frightened herd of deer suddenly ran wildly and rushed towards the convoy.

The hunters hiding in the snow rushed out, and they turned out to be four majestic lions.

"No lioness?"

The people in the caravan controlled the vehicles to get out of the way and avoid the impact of the deer, while carefully observing the surroundings, looking for the lioness.But until the male lion rushed up at an alarming speed and threw down the last stag, the lioness did not show up.

Four male lions surrounded the prey, bit its neck tightly, strangled it on the spot, and prepared to feast on it.

The largest male lion stood in front of the convoy, raised its head, and let out a mighty roar, threatening everyone in the caravan, not allowing them to approach, and calling other lions at the same time.

Not wanting to conflict with the four young and strong male lions, the merchants stepped back cautiously, trying to keep a distance from them while they were eating, so as not to attract their attention.

Within a few minutes, another group of lions arrived.

More than 20 strong lionesses led their cubs through the snow. The lead lioness greeted the males but dismissed their prey.

At the end of the line, several lionesses are pulling their prey together, which is a half-eaten buffalo.

The carcass of the buffalo was frozen, and the wounds on the body were covered with blood and frozen into a red layer of ice.Brought all the way by the lioness, leaving long drag marks on the snow.

With a bang, the lioness left the buffalo and handed over the cub to the male lion. Led by the oldest member, the lioness surrounded the convoy.

Being watched by more than 20 strong lions is definitely not a good experience.

Merchants tense and grip their weapons in their cars.

Just in case, some pushed out the sunroof, ready to attack the enemy with bows and arrows; others held the steering wheel tightly, ready to step on the accelerator at any time, and knock the opposite lion away.

At the critical moment, birdsong came from the sky.

Countless flamingos flew from a distance, flapping their wings and gathering together, like red flames covering the sky.

Seven or eight teenagers slid the sled, followed closely behind the firebirds, crossed the snow-covered river, and approached the caravan that was being surrounded at the moment.

After the firebird arrived, it did not fly down from the sky, but circled above the convoy and the lions, making crisp calls.

The lions were impatient with being called, raised their heads and roared to express their dissatisfaction.

The teenagers headed by Camille stopped one after another, and the sled crossed the snow, splashing a large fan-shaped ice.

"Excuse me, is this the caravan introduced by Zhao Weng?"

Camille pulled down the animal skin covering her cheeks and asked loudly.They didn't seem to be afraid of the lions, and the lions showed no intention of attacking.

A reply quickly came from the modified car: "It was Zhao Weng who informed us that there will be a trade zone and a market here!"

While talking, the merchants took out the animal skins sent by Weng Zhao, waved them at the teenagers a few times, and unfolded them.There are special patterns painted on the animal skin, and the colors are very bright, which is the secret code agreed by Ye An and Zhao Weng.

Confirming the identity of the person who came, Camille took out a strangely shaped wooden whistle from the cloak, and blew a loud whistle.The sound reached the lion's ears, and the lionesses surrounding the convoy dispersed one after another.

Camille untied the animal skin bag on his body and threw it to the leading lioness.

The lioness stepped forward, sniffed the smell on the bag, confirmed that it came from Ye An, bit the rope with her teeth, and found half a bag of crystals inside.

The spar glowed on the snow, falling into the eyes of everyone in the caravan, and the sound of breathing continued.

"Spar? Is it really a spar?"

Several team leaders poked their heads out of the car window and kept swallowing before suppressing the idea of ​​rushing up to grab a piece.

Crystal stones are hard to come by, and the price is ridiculously high.

If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed that these half-grown teenagers would carry such a treasure with them and throw it to the lion!

Seeing the expression on the businessman's face and guessing the entanglement in their hearts, Camille whispered to Ova twice, and clenched the wooden whistle in his hand.

The birds and lions in the sky will teach them a profound lesson,

Ye An decided to open a trade zone on the isolated island, and did not intend to hide the strength and wealth here.

He might not have done this a few months ago.The situation is different now, continuing to hide it will not do him any good, but will hinder the development of the isolated island.

Passing word of mouth from these foreign merchants will certainly cause some troubles, but more importantly, it will be known to the world and lay the foundation for the construction of a city one day.

The merchants travel far and wide, knowing the severity and severity, and also know how to assess the situation. Greed rises briefly, but is quickly suppressed cautiously.

When the lions shared the spar, all the merchants stayed in the car, without exception, keeping quiet, and no one made any outrageous actions.

This made Camille heave a sigh of relief, and also made Zijing and the others who followed them lurk again, not showing up in front of the caravan.

After dividing the spar, the lions left with their prey.

The businessmen finally breathed a sigh of relief, one after another got out of the car and met the boy opposite.They have many questions that need to be answered by the teenagers.

Camille and the others didn't want to say more, and asked everyone to get back in the car, lead the way ahead as planned, and lead the merchants through the territory of the mutant tigers and wolves.

Hearing the howling of tigers and wolves in the wind, and seeing the vigorous figure running on the snowy field through the car window, all the businessmen felt their scalps go numb, and they had a new understanding of the danger of the delta.

The isolated island was close at hand, and there was a rumbling in the sky.

A golden eagle with amazing wingspan flew down from the sky, grabbed the injured antelope, and took the wolves away to chase their prey for half a day.

The mutant wolf howled angrily, and the sound spread far away.

The golden eagle ignored it and returned to the nest with its prey, preparing to feed the chicks waiting to be fed.

The convoy stopped at the edge of the isolated island, and the group of birds that came with them suddenly accelerated and flew to the island first, joined the companions who stayed behind, surrounded the young man standing on the sled, and uttered cheerful calls.

Standing on the sled, Ye An met the appreciative or wary eyes of the merchants, pulled off the scarf made of animal skin, and smiled brightly.

"Welcome to Delta."
