Team gathering point.
Ye Xi was sitting on a clean rock with his knees crossed. Thirty five tribes were around him. From time to time, excited people came alone to meet Ye Xi.
Not far away, the chiefs of the tribes were discussing with heaven and earth how to divide their settlements, where to plant insect willows, and how to build stone houses. The impatient chieftain of Gan Qi suggested that they should start mining stones now.
At this time, a sharp and weak call of the Uighur birds came from the distance.
The Uighur chieftain was very sensitive to the call of the Uighur birds. He had been arguing with chieftain Ganqi about quarrying stones. When he heard the call, he was stunned and looked in that direction.
The Uighur bird''s wings were wounded. While flying, there were beads of blood falling on its master''s shoulder, and it sent out a series of rapid calls to its master.
Cry and cry, suddenly head a tilt, from the host''s shoulder fell down, lost breath.
The owner of the Uighur Bird held the body of the Uighur bird with astonishment and grief.
But the Uighur chieftain, who heard the call of the Uighur birds all the way, changed his face and did not care to comfort the people. Suddenly, he got up and went to Ye Xi.
"Lord Xiwu, just now the Uighur birds of our tribe came to report that Gongtao''s hunting team was in danger and no one escaped!"
Ye Xi''s eyes were suddenly sharp.
All the people around who heard the news were quiet, and felt a little strange.
There are nearly 20 people in the Gongtao hunting team sent out today. Twenty soldiers and twenty fear birds are all dead? Not even one of them escaped?
Gongtao chief tengdi stood up, his eyes suddenly opened and looked at the Uighur chieftain: "what do you say?"
Ye Xi, with a calm look on his face, raised his hand to show the chief of Gongtao a little peace, and asked the Uighur chieftain, "are the fierce animals, poisonous insects or people attacking the Gongtao hunting team?"
The Uighur chieftain''s eyes ached: "the Uighur bird was seriously injured and died before he finished."
Ye Xi: "is there any other information?"
The Uighur chief shook his head.
Ye Xi didn''t ask any more questions. He immediately stood up, bent his fingers to his lips and blew a loud and long whistle.
Not far away from the foraging big Buzzard immediately flew back.
Ye Xi jumped on the back of the big bat and said to the Uighur chieftain, "I''ll go and have a look. You''ll ask the Uighur birds to call back the hunting teams of other tribes. All of them should stay where they are. Be careful and be on guard at any time."
Gongtao chieftain also wanted to follow. Pingyao stopped him and said quickly, "I''ll go, chief. You can protect the people."
Having said that, without waiting for work, chief Tao replied that he had already jumped onto the snow''s back, and the snow immediately flapped his wings and chased after the big buzzard.
Gongtao chief looked at their far away back and stomped heavily, so he had to give up.
…………
Following the scattered bloodstains of Uighur birds dripping on the leaves along the way, ye Xi finally found the place where the Gongtao hunting team was killed.
But his face changed slightly.
The whole hill seemed to have been stirred by a giant blender and turned into broken soil. The thick trees fell in disorder. There were broken branches, broken turf, moss, and fear bird feathers.
It''s a mess.
The most obvious thing is that there are two huge dark red giant worms lying in the chaotic black mound, and the venomous insect liquid flows out from the wound of the insect corpse.
The giant worms are both leech like and earthworm like. They are covered with dark red hard armor. They are extremely huge. They are similar to the giant earthworms that ye Xi met in Heiji mountains before.
If the soldiers of industrial pottery met many of these long insects, it is not difficult to imagine why this was the case here, and why they were completely destroyed.
But before they died, they should have resisted fiercely.
Pingyao jumped off the snow.
As soon as he jumped to the ground, his feet sank into the loose mound.
Looking around, he looked shocked. After looking around for a while, his pupil shrank. He gouged out a curved bone knife from the pile of soil. He gritted his teeth and said, "this is Fu''s bone knife!"
He looked at the bloody bone knife and the two insect corpses apparently cut by the blade. He said in a voice: "I told them not to leave the safe area. Why did they disobey the orders?! How reckless to bump into the giant insect heap! You deserve it
His eyes were red, and he was obviously angry, so he threw the bone knife aside.
However, despite the harsh words, Pingyao finally ploughed through the mess with both hands, trying to find the bodies of the clansmen and bring them back.
But after digging for a long time, nothing was found.
Ye Xi sighed: "useless, they should have been swallowed by giant insects."
Pingyao is covered with mud scraps. After hearing this, he sat down on the ground and looked very embarrassed.
Seeing that we have arrived at the end of a long journey, why are there twists and turns? They have lost so many people. Why are there casualties?In addition, there was a precious female soldier in the hunting team, who also folded here.
It''s a pity that all the giant insects have gone to the bottom of the ground, and he can''t even get revenge even if he wants to.
At this time, ye Xi''s eyes suddenly congealed, and suddenly bent down from the ground and twisted a small piece of black leather armor.
Looking at the broken leather armor, ye Xi''s eyebrows became dignified and said in a deep voice: "maybe they did not meet the insect swarm, but met the attack of other tribes."
Pingyao was shocked: "what?"
Ye Xi threw the piece of leather armor fragment to him, and then waved the big bat down.
The Uighur birds in five or six li around have been explored, and there is no trace of the existence of tribes. Then either some people have been living underground, or their tribes are farther away.
Compared with the former, ye Xi thought that the latter was more likely.
Because people are not insects, it is impossible to see the sun all day long. You should know that even burrowing rabbits often come out to bask in the sun.
High in the air.
Ye Xi squatted on the back of the big bat and looked down at the past.
Everything is normal all around. There are dense forests everywhere, but the vegetation in the northeast direction is gradually sparse. There is a pale blue lake the size of a coin in the past, quietly inlaid in the most barren place.
At the center of the lake, there is a little black spot.
At first glance, the whole lake is like a blue pupil, extremely beautiful and tempting.
Obviously, it turned out to be a meteorite crater. Because of the rainwater in it, it formed a small shallow lake. And the surrounding barren vegetation is caused by this meteorite.
The huge aftershock of the impact of the meteorite cleared the surrounding woods.
At this time, ye Xi seems to have found something, and hastily ordered the big bat to fly closer in that direction.
The wind blew Ye Xi''s hair.
He took a close look and found that on the barren soil around the crater, there were traces of tree transplanting!
If you can''t see the grass in the desert, it seems that if you don''t get close to the grass, it''s like falling into the desert.
"No matter how human nature of the fierce beast will not do such a thing, this crater is probably not occupied by fierce beasts, but by a tribe! They may think that the surrounding area of the tribe is too barren and inconvenient for hunting, so they are anxious to improve the surrounding environment. "
Ye Xi said in his heart.
"The population density of this wild land is very low, and no one can be found after walking for half a month. This tribe occupying the surrounding area of the meteorite crater should be the same wave that attacked the Gongtao hunting team."
Afraid of being discovered by the people of that tribe, ye Xi asked Da Bi to fly high again. In the high altitude, he looked thoughtfully at the meteorite crater.
This unknown tribe is really good at choosing places, and the crater is a wonderful place to live.
The location of the meteorite is very ingenious. It just fell into a row of mountains, and the mountains were slightly dented. Therefore, about one fifth of the lake area is inlaid in the mountains.
But on the other side of the lake is a plain.
This kind of terrain not only can build stone houses, but also can build watch towers, and it is convenient to build city walls. The mountain is not high or low, which is suitable for digging caves. Finally, the lake solved the water problem by the way
Ye Xi looked there and narrowed his eyes slowly.
