After wandering around the southern base for a few times, Ye Qiong stopped staying and started galloping towards the tribe on Daidai.
Now that the snow has stopped, you can clearly see a compacted road above the ground. It is about five meters wide and is still quite large. There is now a layer of snow accumulated on it. The snow on the road is thicker than It's a little shorter from the outside, so it's easy to tell.
After galloping all the way, more than 30 kilometers away, with a much harder road on the ground, it only took about half an hour for Dadai to run back.
At the end of the sky, you can already see the gate of the southern city wall. After seeing the gate blankly, you immediately accelerated your speed.
The soldiers on guard at the southern city wall immediately opened the gate the moment they saw Dudu.
The wide door opens directly from the middle. When the soldiers come back on weekdays, they only need to pass through the small door below.
With Daidai's current body shape, he can't get through the small door, so he has to open the door before he can get in.
He didn't have any intention of stopping at the south gate, and without slowing down, he directly supported Ye Qiong and rushed into the city gate. The strong wind brought by him made the gate begin to tremble slightly.
After the soldiers met each other, they could only admire their blank backs.
Like the soldiers at the timber base over there, the soldiers on the southern city wall were also very excited when they saw Ye Qiong.
They started shouting and yelling on the city wall. After Ye Qiong and Daidai walked away, they calmed down and continued to do their own things.
After Ye Qiong entered the tribe, he galloped towards the central tribe. He met many tribesmen in the middle. The movement of them running at full speed was really too loud.
When he arrived at the central tribe, the first place Ye Qiong went to was the school. In the past few months, the place that Ye Qiong had been thinking about, whether it was people or things, the school was what Ye Qiong cared about the most in the tribe.
Before I even arrived at school, I saw a beautiful figure in the distance...
After staying with Tang Ying until the afternoon, Ye Qiong walked out from where Tang Ying lived and asked Tang Ying to continue her work. Ye Qiong also put Dadai back and let him accompany Dakui and Guoguo.
Ye Qiong himself came to the stable, led the Mustang King out, found Ye Tianlong and Ronling, called them together and started heading towards the cave.
Ye Qiong's main mission when he came back this time was to see what was abnormal in the cave.
Ye Qiong rode on the back of the Mustang King, and Ye Tianlong, Rong Ling, and a few soldiers rode the Snow Demon Wolf and arrived at the cave very quickly.
Ye Qiong got off his horse and walked directly towards the cave. After entering, he started to look around.
The location of the entrance to the cave outside now seemed to be nothing unusual. Ye Qiong continued to walk forward, and when he arrived at the sealed wall, he put his ear directly against it.
After a while, no sound was heard. Ye Qiong, somewhat confused, called out to the few soldiers stationed here who had followed him into the cave.
After asking about the situation, Ye Qiong walked out and continued to the Yili Coal Mine Base.
Most of the development of the coal mine base is carried out underground. The soldiers are constantly reinforcing the spaces where coal has been mined. As the spaces become larger and larger, some areas have now been divided into them.
Now, even if all the soldiers in the coal mine base live below the base, there will be no problem.
After walking around the coal mine base, Ye Qiong returned to the tribe and asked Ye Tianlong to call all the elders in the tribe over.
This meeting of elders is quite important. It is also the first meeting of elders in the tribe since Ye Qiong disappeared. During this meeting, either Ye Tianlong or Ye Tianling and Ronling were not present, so the top leaders of the tribe did not have time to gather.
Now that everyone has gathered, some details and specific directions for the tribe's plans for this winter and next spring need to be worked out.
The first thing to discuss is the problem of those eyeless monsters in the cave.
The general suggestion of the elders is to continue to strengthen the cave, block the entire cave with stones, and then continue to block the outer areas with stones.
Most elders also support this approach.
After the elders discussed for a while, Ye Tianlong began to ask Ye Qiong for his opinion.
In fact, Ye Qiong also thought about strengthening the cave over there and blocking the entrance to the end.
But I feel that if it continues to be blocked, one day it can no longer be blocked, and some powerful creatures will emerge from it. After all, it will still be a trouble, and indicators will not cure the root cause.
Ye Qiong's current idea is that it can be blocked, but there is no need to block it inside the cave. Even if the entire cave is sealed with stones, if the number of those eyeless ones continues to increase, they can dig another hole out. Manpower and material resources are all wasted.
Just like flood control, we have to block it, but we can't rely entirely on blockage, we need to clear it.
So Ye Qiong told him his plan.
That is, ignore the inside of the cave for the time being, and build an arc-shaped circle with a diameter of 500 meters directly outside the cave. It can also be elliptical, so that the area between the cave and the middle can be larger.
This is a layer of defense. The tribe needs to build the foundation as quickly as possible and then slowly reinforce it.
When those eyeless monsters emerge from the cave, their initial number must be limited, and this arc-shaped defense line of concentrated strength can effectively eliminate those eyeless monsters that emerge from the cave.
Only by constantly eliminating those eyeless monsters can the hidden danger of the cave be gradually reduced until it is resolved.
If you keep relying on blocking, it will be troublesome when the eyeless monsters inside reach a certain order of magnitude. After all, quantitative changes will inevitably lead to qualitative changes, and the qualitative change of the eyeless monsters will be a disaster for the tribe.
This kind of disaster can be prevented now, that is, by gradually reducing the number of eyeless monsters.
However, since it is a battle, there must be sacrifices, and the tribe must be mentally prepared for a protracted battle with those eyeless monsters.
This is actually not a battle anymore, but a war!
A life-and-death situation with no possibility of reconciliation until one party disappears from the planet.
Judging from the strength shown by the eyeless monsters in the cave last winter, once the defense line is established, even if all the stones in the cave are removed, the tribe will now be able to intercept them for several times. Days and nights.
If it can't be stopped anymore, there is still time for the tribe members to move to the timber base in the south and the canyon base in the west.
After Ye Qiong expressed his opinion, the elders had no objections, so they made the decision.
This task was left to Ronling to lead the team to complete it and to guard it in the early stage.
