Chapter 22 Danger in the mountains and forests

Qin Yu first took a look at You Ming's harvest this time. There were twelve cattle and forty-six sheep. The population was only a dozen people, but including the ten prisoners, there were more than twenty people.

As a result, the population of the Dragon Tribe has gradually approached one hundred and fifty people.

After instructing Yao Ju to deal with the population, cattle and sheep, Qin Yu led his team and set off for the mountains and forests.

There are about forty people in the team for this trip. You Ming leads ten stone spearmen and ten archers to be responsible for the safety of the trip. Jiang Li leads a collection team of twenty people, each carrying a large straw frame. If there is a harvest, they can be moved temporarily. Come back with some.

In this way, a group of more than 40 people began to move towards the east.

Due to the heavy snowfall in recent days, the current snow is very thick. After walking in the snow for a long time, the lower limbs are prone to freezing.

Everyone staggered towards the mountain forest,

"Clan leader, it's difficult to walk on the snowy road!" You Ming struggled to pull his right foot out of the knee-deep snow and then continued to step forward.

"I know, but this goal is very important. It is related to the future development of the Dragon Tribe. Everyone, please stick to it." Qin Yu spoke out to comfort everyone.

After hearing what the patriarch said, everyone continued to walk forward without saying a word.

More than half an hour later, everyone had just arrived at the edge of the forest.

At this time, all the trees in the mountain forest have been covered with white snow. The snow on the high mountains is a beautiful sight, but it is not suitable to appreciate it at this time.

Qin Yu held a small golden shovel in his hand and silently led the team to the place where he felt.

With great effort, everyone began to walk into the mountain forest.

"Gah...gah...gah...gah..."

Suddenly, there was a sudden collapse of snow and mist in front of the woods. A flock of birds were frightened and flew into the sky. Heavy snow fell from the trees.

Qin Yu was stunned and had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Everyone be alert! There may be a situation ahead."

Looking at the direction where the birds were startled just now, Qin Yu felt a little uneasy.

What could cause such a situation...

A large beast? Or people from other tribes...

The ten members of the hunting team had already put bone arrows on their bowstrings and were heading in that direction. The stone spear team also raised their stone spears and looked on guard.

Following a burst of dense footsteps, a team of a hundred people wearing animal skins and holding stone axes and stone knives appeared in sight.

"Clan leader...there are too many people on the other side, it's difficult to handle!"

You Ming whispered in Qin Yu's ear.

"Let's see again and adapt accordingly." Qin Yu responded in a low voice.

The team in the forest in the distance gradually approached. Although the other party was obviously on alert, it had not yet reached the point of starting a fight over a disagreement.

The leader was a warrior who was taller and stronger than You Ming. He held a particularly large bone club in his hand. If he hit anyone with this stick, Qin Yu would probably kill him on the spot.

The tall and muscular man slowly approached, and an invisible pressure fell on Qin Yu and others.

"Which tribe are you from? What are you doing in the mountains and forests?"

A strong voice sounded from the mouth of the tall man.

Qin Yu was stunned for a moment and then responded: "We are from the Dragon Tribe. The people of the Tribe will not be able to survive in the cold weather, so we went to the mountain forest to cut some wood and make a fire."

"Dragon tribe?" The tall man looked puzzled, obviously he had never heard of this tribe. He continued: "There are traces of wild beasts in the mountain forest. I suggest you cut down some in the edge areas."

After the man finished speaking, he led the team behind him and continued to move forward.

Seeing the hundred-man team heading straight forward, the Dragon Tribe warriors suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

Although there are forty people in their team, the only ones with real combat effectiveness are the twenty people led by You Ming. Twenty versus one hundred, the winning rate is slim.

"Go back alone and notify Leader Ya quickly to be on guard." Qin Yu said with some worry.

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Li picked out a man with relatively agile legs and feet from the collection team and asked him to return to the tribe.

Qin Yu looked at the back of the man who returned, still a little worried.

That team was obviously heading towards the grassland. It could send out a team of a hundred people at once. This was definitely not a force in the eastern region of the grassland.

Could it be a tribe in the mountains and forests?

The more Qin Yu thought about it, the more likely it was, but judging from his appearance, he should be quite friendly.

Qin Yu waved his hand, and the team continued to advance into the mountain forest.

No matter what, finish the things in front of you as soon as possible, and then return to the tribe as soon as possible.

The mountain wind blew slowly, causing everyone to tighten their clothes. The already rugged mountain road was filled with heavy snow, making it even more difficult to walk.

Mountain forests in winter are safer than in summer because there are not so many wild animals out and about.

Qin Yu silently felt the distance to his destination, which was probably more than five hundred meters away.

After a long journey, the jungle blocking the road ahead was cleared.

Everyone's vision broadened in vain.

This is a valley with an area of ​​more than 100,000 square meters. The slope is not high, only about five or six meters.

Qin Yu led everyone to search for a long time before they found a natural path leading to the bottom of the valley.

Everyone followed the path into the valley. Looking at such a flat, open and secretive valley, You Ming couldn't help but say:

"Chief, this is a perfect place for the tribe to settle!"

Qin Yu shook his head after hearing this: "It is not an advantage to be secretive. As long as you want to develop outwards, you will be discovered here sooner or later. Secondly, the upper limit here is too low, and it is also a trough. Food, water, and heavy rain are all question."

After Qin Yu finished explaining, he led everyone to continue walking forward.

He estimated the distance in his mind, fifty meters...thirty meters...ten meters...five meters...one meter...

It’s here!

Looking at the uneven land under his feet, Qin Yu began to look forward to this harvest.

Copper mine? iron ore? Don't come here for gold or silver mines, they are of little use for the time being.

Qin Yu held the golden shovel in his hand and silently thought about using it.

The golden shovel in his hand suddenly turned into a stream of light and fell to the ground, and then he started digging downwards.

But the scene was enough to surprise everyone.

The small shovel seemed to be alive. It moved on its own and kept digging downwards.

The surrounding tribesmen could not help but look at Qin Yu with some curiosity and respect.

In this era, it is difficult not to think of such magical scenes as having something to do with gods?

Jiang Li was originally the leader of the White Fox Tribe. Even if he didn't say anything on his face after joining the Dragon Tribe, he would inevitably have some thoughts in his heart.

But now that he saw that the leader of the Dragon Tribe had such magical abilities, Jiang Li's thoughts gradually began to dissipate.

Does the Dragon Tribe also have a totem god?

And it’s a totem god that can manifest?

In the primitive era, many tribal settlements would experience despair due to natural and man-made disasters. In order to survive, totems, gods, and beliefs were the birth of hope.
