After collecting some soil samples, Ye Qiong followed the stream back to the base.
The soldiers had already begun to cut wood in the forest, and then carried the wooden piles with broken branches to the creek.
After Ye Qiong came over, he saw the busy figures of the soldiers from a distance.
The place with mountains, water and woods really gives people a beautiful feeling.
Then soon, this beauty was broken.
Several arrows shot out from the dense forest...
Heading towards the soldiers.
"Dangdangdang..."
The targets of the arrows were not people, but the wooden stakes on the shoulders of the warriors.
Although the soldiers Ye Qiong brought here this time were all retired from the front line, the overall quality of the soldiers was definitely not weaker than the regular army of ordinary tribes.
Several soldiers carrying wooden stakes on their backs immediately threw the wooden stakes directly on the ground and found the nearest bunker as quickly as possible.
Ye Qiong looked at the scene in front of him and frowned.
It looks like...
There must be tribes in this dense forest.
Ye Qiong rushed over as quickly as possible, gathered the soldiers together, and returned to the bunker by the creek.
"Young Master, what should we do? There seems to be a tribe in this forest. Should we continue to build a base here?" A middle-aged man looked at Ye Qiong in front of him and said anxiously.
Ye Qiong looked up at the dense forest. At this moment, there was still no sign of anyone, but there were a few arrows shooting towards them in the air.
"Don't worry, let's take a look. They just warned me and let me think about what to do." Ye Qiong replied.
It is possible to build a lumber factory in such a large dense forest. Ye Qiong would not be able to turn around and leave.
but……
Because he didn't expect that there would be a tribe in the dense forest here, Ye Qiong just brought ten second-line warriors. The battle would definitely not be fought.
There are tribes on the Snow Star who choose to spend the cold winter in the dense forest, but there are very few such tribes. Hibernating in the dense forest has both advantages and disadvantages.
The good thing is that you don't have to worry about attacks from beasts or crazy crowds. After all, they won't rush into the dense forest in winter.
For the beast tide, the trees in the forest can't use it at all.
For a madman, no matter how brainless he is, he will not be stupid enough to get into the forest. Because when he meets a human being in a dense forest, the madman becomes a lamb to be slaughtered. There are ten thousand ways for human beings to avoid being detected by the ghost. Kill them.
These are the benefits of spending the winter in the woods.
But there is a very fatal flaw in going into the dense forest in winter, and that is the snowstorm...
There are no words to describe how terrifying the blizzard on the Snow Star is. The strong wind and water carry the ice and snow all the way. Once you encounter a dense forest, the entire forest can be easily buried under the obstruction of the dense forest.
That is, buried alive!
If you are stationed in a valley or flat land, you won't have this problem. No matter how big the snowstorm is, it won't bury the entire tribe, but it's different in a dense forest. An ordinary snowstorm in winter can directly bury the forest. , after next spring, as the ice and snow melt, the forest will be fine, but the frozen corpses of the human tribe stationed inside will begin to rot.
Therefore, although there is no need to worry about beasts and crazy crowds in the dense forest, basically no tribe will go into the forest in winter.
However, there are exceptions to everything. There is a tribe that likes to go into the woods in winter. They will not enter the forests in the plains, but look for the dense forests in the valleys. In this case, the probability of being buried alive is much smaller.
It is very difficult to find such a place in a short period of time on Snow Star. It only depends on luck. Therefore, most tribes basically choose the most suitable place for hibernation wherever they go and set up camp there. .
If Ye Qiong and his tribe could have discovered this place last winter, Ye Qiong would have directly brought the tribe to camp there. The high slopes and waterfalls over there are very safe.
And if the flow of water in the creek here is constant all year round and does not freeze in winter, Ye Qiong will even choose to live here for a long time.
If the tribes in the dense forest can solve the problem of supplies and food in winter, this will indeed be a good place to live for a long time.
Of the ten warriors, four were huddled behind the boulder with Ye Qiong, and the other six had found bunkers. They were all safe for the time being, and no one was injured.
If the targets of those people in the dense forest just now were ten warriors, then based on the strength of these warriors, they were probably already in danger. No matter how strong Ye Qiong was, he could only watch helplessly.
The soldiers are lucky, and the humans in the dense forest are also lucky...
If their target just now was a human, Ye Qiong wouldn't mind letting them taste what it was like to be attacked by several king beasts at the same time.
Ye Qiong took out the snake meat from the animal skin pocket, sat between the soldiers on both sides, cut off a piece with a dagger and stuffed it into his mouth.
Not in a hurry.
For Ye Qiong, this matter must be a small scene, just a family affair. The war between tribes is the most annoying and disdainful to Ye Qiong.
In the past two years, some unsighted tribes took the initiative to launch a war against the Ye Qiong tribe, and then Ye Qiong made them understand the difference between war and playing house.
Warcraft and humans, as well as madmen and humans, are all determined to fight to the death, so on Snow Star, Ye Qiong is very reluctant to see the two tribes fighting for supplies and food. After all, there are only so many people, and war will inevitably lead to disasters. casualties.
How can civilization develop when all people are dead...
If you want civilization to develop and progress, the manpower and material resources required are astronomical.
Neither the monsters nor the madmen could be dealt with completely, so when the warriors around Ye Qiong were shot with arrows.
Ye Qiong was not angry at all, he still had time to eat some game.
"Want some?"
The soldiers on both sides were stunned when they saw the snake meat that Ye Qiong took out!
Just now they were shot so hard that they were running away, but now the young patriarch actually wanted to eat snake meat.
but……
The four of them swallowed almost at the same time. Although there are many snake creatures on Snow Planet, they are not found in winter, so the soldiers have not tasted snake meat for eighteen months.
On the Snow Star, among all the magical beasts and wild beasts, there are very few whose meat can match the quality of snake meat.
In the past, when hunting in the summer, the warriors' eyes would light up when they saw a snake. Even if it was a venomous snake, they would find a way to catch it and disembowel it.
Although the venom of poisonous snakes is very poisonous, the soldiers are also very cruel. If they are really bitten, they will pick up the knife and use it on themselves, and they will bleed without even frowning.
Looking at the expressions of the soldiers, Ye Qiong tore the snake meat in his hand into two pieces and handed half of it over.
