Ye Qiong continued flying on Thunder.
The destination this time is over the rubble pile base.
Now that we were halfway through the journey, we saw a tribe stationed about five kilometers from the edge of the canyon.
After looking at it from a distance, it was not a large tribe, with less than a thousand people. At this time, there were warriors hunting on the periphery.
If Ye Qiong were to fly directly over on Thunderbolt, it would have a great impact on the tribe and warriors.
He might just run away on the spot.
So Ye Qiong just rode Thunder and looked around, passing by.
After marking the location, let the soldiers come over and try to win over them.
We need to cultivate some talents in this field later.
It was still early, and Lei Lei continued to fly. On Lei Qiong's back, while enjoying the freedom of flying, he was also experiencing the feeling of the cold wind hitting his face in early spring.
If you fly for a few hours, there will still be no problem, but after more than an hour, your face will feel uncomfortable.
If you wait a little longer, you can feel the feeling of being frozen.
The body's flexibility and responsiveness will be greatly reduced.
So after riding Thunderbolt for about an hour, Ye Qiong couldn't help but rub his arm, then stretched out his right hand and patted Thunderbolt's neck lightly.
Thunder's rapidly flying body immediately slowed down, and the frequency of its wings beating also decreased.
Therefore, the flight altitude is also gradually decreasing.
Ye Qiong looked at the environment below, then controlled the reins and let Thunder fly towards a high slope at the edge of the canyon.
Upon reaching the high slope, Ye Qiong immediately jumped off Lei Ting's back.
In early spring, the temperature rose, but Ye Qiong was still wearing his animal skin coat, which was no different from that in winter.
Even so, after jumping off Lei Ting's back, Ye Qiong was still freezing.
After I got down and moved my body a few times, I relaxed a little.
"Hua Hua Hua..."
In the canyon, in the upstream direction, there was a small waterfall with a height of about ten meters. The current flow of water was already very large, so after landing, Ye Qiong heard a loud sound of water immediately.
After resting for a while, Ye Qiong took out a piece of dried meat, put it in his mouth and started chewing it.
While chewing, he took out the map from his pocket and marked the location of the small tribe just now on the map.
Lei Ting, who had been flying for an hour at a stretch, didn't feel any tiredness at the moment. It seemed that Ye Qiong spared no effort in feeding King Meat, which not only increased Lei Ting's strength and size, but also increased his endurance a lot.
After Ye Qiong had rested himself, he immediately rode Thunder and continued on the road.
After all, this time, Ye Qiong just wanted to visit the Ruishui Base and make plans for the tribe's trip this year.
The plan for the year lies in spring, and this spring is very important to the Ye Qiong tribe.
Last year, the central tribe did not have much population, so relatively speaking, although Ye Qiong was trapped in the Dinglong Mountains, he did not lead the tribe's warriors on the second journey.
But the supplies and food collected were enough for the tribesmen and warriors to survive the cold winter.
This year is different. The current population base of the Ye Qiong tribe has exceeded the seven thousand mark.
The pressure on supplies and food in winter is very high this year, several times that of last year.
Therefore, we must act as soon as possible this year, otherwise, it will be a bit late when summer comes.
If we wait until summer is over, it will be too late.
For the central tribe, until crops that can be sown are developed, the tribe's winter rations still have to be obtained by traveling far away.
Riding on Lei Lei, he continued flying. When he was resting just now, Lei Lei ran to the edge of the water in the canyon and drank some water, which could be regarded as replenishing his strength.
After continuing to fly for twenty minutes, Ye Qiong saw a tribe again.
Compared with the previous tribe, this one was slightly larger, with a size of a thousand people. After Ye Qiong marked the location in his mind, he continued flying on Thunder.
Although these two tribes don't seem to be far away now, they are still not close if they are walking. If Ye Qiong came here on Dudu this time, he would definitely miss them.
After continuing to fly for half an hour, a familiar scene appeared in front of Ye Qiong.
The rock pile base has arrived!
Last summer, Ye Qiong and the warriors of the tribe stayed here for a long time, so he was still very familiar with this area.
But soon, as the flying altitude of Thunder dropped, Ye Qiong discovered something was wrong.
here……
There seemed to be humans, but they didn't look like humans.
That is, someone lived here before, but then left.
This point in time was not long ago.
Until the height of Thunder's flight continued to decrease, Ye Qiong saw some bright red crystals above the ground.
You know that this place seems to have been attacked. Compared with last summer, the size of the rock pile base has not expanded.
After walking around the base, in addition to the bright red crystals on the ground, there were also some supplies left over from the human tribe, the kind of supplies that were completely useless against Warcraft.
It seems that not long ago, something bad happened at the Ruishui Base.
At this point, Ye Qiong could only mourn for a while. If something like this happened at this time, it can only be said that the tribe who ran to the base of the pile of rocks was not very lucky.
The scene here reminded Ye Qiong of what he saw at the Jute Tribe in the winter of the previous year.
Sad and desolate.
"well……"
Ye Qiong couldn't help but sigh. Although he couldn't do anything about this kind of thing, his mood would still be negatively affected to some extent.
Human beings are too miserable in the winter of snow stars.
If there were cigarettes at this moment, Ye Qiong would really like to have one.
It can be seen that these people managed to survive until the spring at the rubble base, but fate still played a joke and they were encountered by the dispersed beast tide.
Ye Qiong sat on the largest boulder in the middle area of the rock pile base for a long time...
Time passed by little by little, and it was almost afternoon. If we didn't rush back now, we wouldn't be able to return to the base of the waterfall tonight.
After adjusting his mood, Ye Qiong stood up from the boulder, jumped suddenly, and jumped down from the boulder.
Lei Lei was right next to the boulder, and seemed to sense that Ye Qiong was in a bad mood, so he lay down on the ground.
After Ye Qiong's body landed, Lei Lei used his wings to support his body and stood up.
"Gugu...Gugu..."
Lei Lei's throat made a slight trembling sound, as if he wanted to comfort Ye Qiong.
Feeling Thunder's current emotions, Ye Qiong stretched out his right hand and gently patted Thunder's lowered forehead.
"Let's go back..."
After saying that, Ye Qiong suddenly turned over and rode on Lei Ting's back, ready to fly back.
If there were tribes at the rubble base, Ye Qiong would have liked to stay a little longer, but the current situation left Ye Qiong in no mood.
It's better to go back as soon as possible and find a way to win over the two tribes along the way. That's the business.
After riding on Thunder, Thunder immediately stretched out its wings. After bending its one foot, it straightened its one foot and flapped its wings.
The next moment, Thunder's figure flew up, and after reaching the boulder, it continued to rise higher.
Ye Qiong looked back at the rock pile base. After turning back, he lowered his body and got ready to fly.
"Chirp! Chirp! Chirp!"
Just when Lei Lei's figure had reached a hundred meters in the air and began to move away from the base with piles of rocks.
Sudden!
A rapid whistle sounded!
Ye Qiong's hearing was very good. Even though the sound became much weaker due to the noisy wind after being high in the altitude, Ye Qiong still reacted immediately.
Ye Qiong jerked the reins around Thunder's neck, causing Thunder to slow down a bit. Trying to maintain the current flying height, Ye Qiong began to change direction and flew towards the location where the sound came from!
"Chirp, chirp, chirp! Chirp!"
The whistle sounded again, and Ye Qiong immediately captured the specific location of the whistle.
It’s the area with the small altar!
When Ye Qiong saw the large altar last year, he was wondering if it would have any connection with the rubble base here.
The reason is that the small altar at the base of the rubble and the altar at the base of the waterfall are so similar in appearance that they are mini versions.
Ye Qiong immediately felt happy, and the negative emotions in front of him were swept away. He rode the thunder and flew over there at the fastest speed.
For the sake of safety, Ye Qiong asked Lei Lei to stop a hundred meters away from the small altar where the whistle sounded.
It was a human whistle, and Ye Qiong was now riding a flying monster. When the whistle sounded, they should have seen themselves.
But for flying monsters like Thunder, they may still be a big threat in their eyes.
"Come out!" Ye Qiong shouted loudly.
Before he finished speaking, several figures appeared from behind the small altar a hundred meters away.
A few...
Petite figure!
child!
Ye Qiong immediately frowned and jumped off Lei Ting's back.
When Ye Qiong landed, several more petite figures emerged from behind the small altar, and there seemed to be others behind...
Ye Qiong was stunned. He never thought that the ones who blew the whistle just now were actually these little carrot heads.
He looked back at the base of the pile of rocks, and then at the figures emerging from behind the small altar.
Ye Qiong's heart was full of mixed feelings.
The crisis was over, but Ye Qiong's mood became heavy again. After patting Thunder's wings and letting Thunder stay in place, Ye Qiong took off the bone crystal long bow from behind and walked towards the little carrot heads. passed...
A group of children looked at the figure walking over and didn't know what to think at this moment.
They don't know how long they have been here...
When I saw the flying monster in the sky, I was frightened until I saw the human figure riding on it.
There are already small beasts on the ground, so there is not much of a problem in terms of food. Even children can survive after spring begins in the snowy land, as long as they do not encounter monsters and scavengers.
The reason why Ye Qiong took down the bone crystal longbow was because of his professional instinct. After all, this is the time when the boat is most likely to capsize in the ditch, so he must remain vigilant.
When he was on a mission in South Africa in his last life, there were comrades beside Ye Qiong who rolled over their cars in such a scene.
In the eyes of some inhumane humans, children are not children, but deadly weapons that can make enemies relax their vigilance.
Although you won't encounter that kind of scene on Snow Star, this instinct has been imprinted in Ye Qiong's bones. Being more vigilant is definitely not a bad thing.
Suddenly there were more than a dozen small bodies popping up from behind the altar, both boys and girls, still wrapped thickly, with animal skin coats, animal sinew belts, linen boots...
Now everyone's eyes looked at Ye Qiong very strangely.
Ye Qiong could understand the strangeness.
Cowardly? have! But not much…
curious? have! This is quite a lot, after all, you can ride a big bird!
Innocence? Yes! But not much more…
What have they experienced?
Ye Qiong can imagine that if there are adults in this area.
Then it's definitely not these little carrot heads' turn to blow the whistle.
Therefore, they were left behind after the tribesmen and warriors of their own tribe had exhausted everything, and were the tribe's last hope.
Adults can use their bodies as bait in exchange for hope of survival.
When Ye Qiong saw them, he knew that there were no adults at the rubble pile base.
And they were able to survive just at the beginning of spring. If it was still winter, some endings were already doomed.
Looking at the children emerging from behind the altar, Ye Qiong looked at the bone crystal long bow in his hand, and then put the bone crystal long bow back on his back. He walked quickly towards the children.
"You... can you understand what I say?" After arriving in front of them, Ye Qiong looked at the little boy standing in the middle area among them and asked.
Immediately, I got a positive answer.
It is not difficult to gain the trust of children, especially if they speak the same language.
These children no longer have their parents and have become Snow Star orphans.
No matter what, it was impossible for Ye Qiong to let them continue to live here.
If someone said something about Ye Qiong's Holy Mother at this moment, Ye Qiong would definitely beat it into paste with his fist and use it to paste the wall!
But how to bring it back has become a headache.
after all……
More than two hundred kilometers!
What Ye Qiong didn't expect was that after gaining their trust, the little boy who blew the whistle just now blew the whistle on his chest again.
Soon, at the edge of the canyon, under the altars that connected the city in a straight line, little heads began to pop up.
