Chapter 492 Long time no see
I have to say that the way Shao Xuan brought this group of people back was far beyond Ao and his group's expectations. However, at this time, they no longer cared about the way these people came back. They only knew that these people were one with their tribe, and the feeling of totem flames allowed them to confirm this. ←,
When Shao Xuan supported the crack near the edge of the cliff, Ao jumped into the sea with his people. At this time, they had never even thought about whether there were giant water beasts in the sea.
The ability to separate the sea surface and resist the flames of the sea water did not stop the Yanjiao people. The person who jumped into the sea could directly enter the crack and stand on the stone path. However, at this time, it was almost at Shao Xuan's limit.
"I can't hold on for long. You can bring the people in the team that can no longer be moved," said Shao Xuan, who said to Zheng Luo next to him, "Take the people in the team and go with them, they are all their own people."
Zheng Luo nodded with a smile, "I know, everyone is Yanjiao people." He walked towards Ao, who was the first to come in, "Yanjiao Luo."
"Yanjiao Ao."
The two leaders of the branches extended their arms and gave a warm hug, and then pounded each other's shoulders. This was also a way for the tribe to show friendship.
Ao glanced at the team following Shao Xuan, suppressed his excitement, and said, "We will take the people in the team who are injured, sick or physically exhausted. Others who still have extra energy can climb up along the ropes they threw down, and someone will be able to pick them up."
Knowing that it was his own people, the team on the stone road was not repelled or wary. They handed the wounded over with confidence, and then seized the time and climbed up along the ten ropes tied from animal leather jackets and trousers that were thrown down.
Even those who are very tired and are about to faint by hunger and thirst, try their best to stay awake at this time. The destination has arrived and someone comes to pick them up. Don’t worry about anything, just climb up.
Shao Xuan must stay for the end, after all, he must support the crack. Only after letting everyone else leave can he put away the power to separate the sea water and leave. After walking in the sea for so long, let alone others, even Shao Xuan is now thirsty and hungry, and his mouth is dry and cracked.
"Drink some water first." Ao took out his kettle, and there was still some water left in it, so he gave it to Shao Xuan to drink.
After drinking some water, Shao Xuan finally felt a little better. However, the feeling of hunger became even more obvious. He planned to have a hard meal when he got back.
Looking up at the cliff wall, there were people climbing with people on the back of the rock wall, and there were also soldiers with rich rock climbing experiences carrying one on their backs and one in their hands. The ten colorful ropes were placed down. At first, the people above asked the people below to climb up, but later they found that this was too slow. So they connected the two ropes to form a circle, and then put them down. Someone was pulling them above the cliff. Whenever one side was pulled up, one section of the same length would be placed down on the other side.
It is like a conveyor belt for transporting goods. While delivering the goods on one hand, unloading the goods at the top, and then lowering the unloaded conveyor belt from the other side, waiting to transport the next batch of goods.
So the person below can be pulled up as long as he grabs the rope that has free sections. If he can't even catch it, he will be tied to it and pulled up.
It is indeed a good idea. Those leather jackets and leather pants are also wear-resistant and will not break after a few strokes on the rocks. At least they can support all of these people up.
Seeing that this method is very efficient and can save effort by those below. Several other ropes are tied together and they are pulled in the same way.
On the stone path, as the number of people decreased rapidly, the cracks were also narrowing, and the cracks became smaller, and Shao Xuan could save more effort. After the rest of the team left the rope, Shao Xuan put away the power to support the bone ornament and grabbed the rope.
There was no strength to separate the sea water. The sea walls on both sides smashed down like they had collapsed, gathering together, and the splashing water rushed over Shao Xuan.
Fortunately, the rope was pulled quickly, and Shao Xuan was not flooded by the sea.
When he was pulled up while holding the rope, Shao Xuan looked at the people standing in a row along the cliff above, and there were several familiar beast heads, feeling like he had not left in the past two years.
"I'm back."
Everyone was very excited when they saw Shao Xuan. Many people wanted to come up and give Shao Xuan a warm hug. Unfortunately, as soon as Shao Xuan came up, the others moved their feet and were squeezed by Caesar.
When Shao Xuan left the ferocious beast forest and came to the desert, he did not bring Caesar. This guy actually felt a lot of resentment, but when he saw Shao Xuan, he was still very excited. The big wolf's head hung down and he kept squirting towards Shao Xuan.
"Long time no see, old guy." After Shao Xuan's longest time, Caesar was still with Shao Xuan. It was indeed not easy to see it grow from an ordinary little wolf cub to what it is today. Thinking about it, it has been more than ten years.
They greeted everyone one by one and asked about the situation of the injured and sick people in the team. When they heard that their condition had stabilized and there was no life-threatening moment, Shao Xuan also felt relieved.
"Chief, what's wrong with you here?" Shao Xuan asked Xiang Ao.
"The witch asked us to come here, but after coming to the desert, I encountered it." Ao pointed to the big beetle that was thrusting his hind legs excitedly, and told the story at that time.
When they saw Caesar running towards the tide of insects, they were really scared and thought that Caesar was going to fight with the big beetle. Even if it wasn't for the big beetle, they wouldn't be able to get along with the huge army of insects. However, what happened next was beyond their expectations. The tide actually gave way and asked Caesar to go over. Then Caesar ran to the side with the big beetle, and the team naturally followed behind.
"Good." Shao Xuan patted the big blue beetle whose back was now more than two meters high. Like a small insect that could be crushed with a finger, by chance, he became the first slave to Shao Xuan's slavery. Thinking of what Ji Ju once said, Shao Xuan could clearly feel the thoughts and emotions of the beetle. The more it grows, the closer the connection will be.
The sapphire's current back armor is like a metal-cast helmet, very hard. However, you can also see the crisscrossing marks on this hard shell, some are traces caused by sharp weapons, and also marks of blunt weapons. This bug has also encountered many things.
Finally brought the team here, it was impossible to set off immediately, and it needed to be repaired here. After walking for so long, no one had a good rest and was ineffective.
Ao asked the soldiers to give all the fish they caught before to these new brothers. Then they went into the sea to look for opportunities. Over the days, they had mastered the skills of fishing in the sea, which was not as difficult as they were before.
Probably because of the relationship between the sea and the air is not as dry as deep in the desert, and the rain stones condense water quickly. People who receive water supply have gradually recovered. The soldiers with good spirits have already talked with their new brothers because they are not proficient in language and the language used on both sides of the sea is not clear. Although many people have some contact with tribal language, they are still a little uncomfortable. At the beginning, there are bumps and bumps, but even speaking and gesture can express the general meaning, and the communication between the two sides is very enthusiastic.
Especially when Tuo and his friends saw the weapons in their hands of their brothers, their eyes were straightened. Metal weapons were not common here, and they still saw them in the desert. Even several other tribes snatched them from the slave owners and brought them back to the core. The stone was placed there, but they didn't know how to smel them, so they kept putting them on hold.
"This is this..." Tuo and others felt that the worldview was subverted.
It was not surprising that Duokang, who had heard about the situation here for a long time, generously gave Guihe a small copper knife. The two hunting teams exchanged their heads and shoulders.
Tuo, Tuo, Moore and others also fought with Tao, Wuzhan and other people of the same age, and they were in a hurry to chat. The former envied the latter for being able to afford metal weapons. The latter envied the former for having such powerful beasts. Although several beasts are now wilted, this state is only temporary. As long as they leave the desert, they can recover their blood immediately.
There is no fire. The tribes use stones directly. During the day, the stones on the desert are roasted very hot. You can still hear the sound of wattle when you stick the food. Although they cannot be fully cooked, they are better than eating them completely raw. Who knows if these fish in the sea will get sick after eating them raw?
The Sunshine Brothers and Sisters also came with the ferocious beasts they tamed. Every time they went to the sea to find food for the two ferocious beasts, when Shao Xuan looked over, he saw Guangguang from Qiaomai's family holding a large conch and throwing it over. The fearful crane used his mouth as a chisel to easily break the large conch.
After taking a rough look, Shao Xuan withdrew his gaze and learned about the situation here with Ao. After leaving for two years, the changes here should be very big.
"The forces in the desert have changed a lot. There are no three major cities now, only the overlord Yanling, and other small cities are all vassals. However, the people in Yanling are now cleaning up the remaining scattered forces, and there is no external movement for the time being. When we came, we did not meet the people in Yanling City." Ao said.
After all, the desert is so big that even Yanling City is the overlord in the desert, it will not be scattered to every corner of the desert. Most places have only yellow sand, and they will send troops to it unless they deliberately clear a certain residual force. As for why the tribe's people did not meet Yanling people, it may be because of luck or the beetle. After all, the road was brought by it.
Shao Xuan was prepared for the ending in the desert, especially after learning some of the secrets that had happened, he understood even more that those people surnamed Shi were planning very much, but they didn't know how they wanted to take revenge.
"Where is in the tribe?" Shao Xuan asked again.
"The tribe is fine, everything goes well, the harvest of the fields is good, and the tourists are still peaceful. As for the other tribes, I don't seem to have heard of any big news, but when the melee occurred in the desert, I heard that several tribes sent people to the desert several times and should have snatched a lot of things."
“What about the others?”
“Other?”
"For example, the weather. How was this winter in the past?" Shao Xuan asked.
"Weather? It's really strange to say that there was snow in the mountains and forests before, but this year it didn't snow, only rained. We asked later that it wasn't snowing elsewhere. It was rare to encounter a warm winter. We also went to the mountains and forests to hunt several times, haha!"
