Xufeng Mountains, this million-level super tribe, has no tribes that can compete with it in the surrounding area, so for a long time, the people of this tribe have not given the tribe a name. For them, the place on the hills is Their residential area is their home, and there is no concept of country or country. Even the concept of tribe itself has never appeared in their hearts.

There is no behemoth that any tribe can challenge around the Xufeng Mountains, so the kind of war between humans has little meaning to ordinary tribesmen.

As for the frictions among the surrounding small tribes, the warriors can resolve them themselves. No tribesman will worry about such things.

Because most of the tribe members have never left this hill throughout their lives.

Perhaps in the eyes of the small peripheral tribes, this super tribe is like a cage. The soldiers go out to hunt monsters. Ordinary tribesmen who want to go out to collect supplies need to be screened.

Like...

A closed tribe.

The eighteen-month winter is too long. Not to mention the clan members, the soldiers cannot go out easily.

After the summer, the three levels of spring, summer and autumn, which are fully calculated, add up to a total of six months. It is already very difficult for the soldiers and those tribesmen who can go out to get enough food and supplies. Very few people I will think about what is in the distance and what there is...

But there are always some tribesmen who are not willing to live this kind of life. Their thoughts are in the distance, and they want to take risks and see if the outside world is like that. Winter is also so long!

The tribe has very severe punishments for people of this race, and even regards this race as aliens. Almost every few years, some tribesmen will be exiled because of ideological problems!

This mechanism has existed for countless years. Even the royal family is unable to do anything about the inheritance of this tribe. The supreme ruler has supreme rights, but the Presbyterian Church is an organization that can limit the rights of the supreme ruler and gives this right. A scope of use.

Those exiles all left in the depth of winter. Some were kicked out, and some...

voluntary!

The tribe will give them food for the last time, about a week's worth of food. As for what to do next, it's up to them.

Under normal circumstances, the tribe's gate would only be opened once for the exiles in winter. When it was closed again, it would only be opened after spring arrived.

Human beings are thoughtful creatures and a species that lives in groups. When the size reaches a certain scale, something must be used to restrain it.

In this super tribe, laws and some similar religious beliefs have been born, and this law does not carry the death penalty. The most serious punishment is exile!

In the cold winter season, once the door is opened, go out and fend for yourself!

Like a deprivation meal, the tribe will also provide them with food for a week humanely. As for what to do after a week, they can only rely on themselves.

To the ordinary people who were exiled, winter in the Xufeng Mountains was no different from being sentenced to death.

In the outer area where monsters are rampant, if you encounter a few scavengers, for ordinary tribesmen, it is better to kill them with a single knife.

When facing those scavengers and monsters, if they don't have the courage to commit suicide, they must experience the abyss of fear.

Horrible winter!

Even for those strong warriors, it would be difficult for them to carry a week's worth of food and survive outside for a month.

There are no small tribes in the area around the Xufeng Mountains. Walking in one direction in the vast snowy wasteland, trying to find those small tribes that hide themselves in winter is no different from finding a needle in a haystack. Even if you are lucky enough to encounter it, Whether it can be accepted is another matter.

Can……

There are still people who take the initiative to go out!

In the eyes of normal tribesmen, he is the kind of person with brain problems.

Since you yearn for freedom, then pursue freedom.

remarkably brave!

Therefore, for tribesmen who actively want to leave the tribe, the tribe will not stop them. At the same time, they will be more generous and directly provide food for a month. If they can find a more suitable place to live, such as a place with spring all year round, maybe it will be more suitable for the tribe. That's a good thing, too.

However, there is also a limitation in this regard, that is, people with royal blood do not have this freedom.

Some small tribes on the periphery of the Xufeng Mountains have a relatively unified name for this super tribe. To put it into context, it is the Lanfeng Tribe!

On the hills, the wind is very strong!

In summer, the scenery presented by the Lanfeng tribe is completely different from that in winter.

On the entire hill, the tribe has turned into an elegant and emerald color, full of vitality. Under the shining of the star's light, the surrounding vegetation is growing lushly. Flowers and vines almost cover the entire external city wall of the Lanfeng tribe. stand up!

Looking down from the air, you can see the living areas inside. Many stone buildings have many floors, and most of them have a terrace. On it, there are tribesmen drying some clothes and bedding. On the rows of wooden racks, a dazzling array of various products are hung. Grow meat and supplies.

There are criss-crossing roads in the tribe, and you can see many children playing and playing on the road. If you only look at this season, the entire Lanfeng tribe feels like a paradise. Living here is A treat.

The summer wind blows gently over the Lanfeng tribe, bringing a hint of sweetness to the air.

The city wall on the side facing the Xufeng Mountain Range extended out to the end of the ancient forest road. A speeding figure suddenly rushed out of the forest.

On top of the city wall that was tens of meters high, the soldiers saw the majestic figure at a glance. The terrifying city wall, which weighed hundreds of tons, slowly rose up under the power of flowing water...

The Lanfeng tribe has developed to a good level in terms of architecture and some machinery, and it has a somewhat medieval Nordic feel.

After so many years of closed development, what the Lanfeng tribe is like inside and to what extent it has developed is a complete mystery to the small tribes on the periphery.

The gravitational potential energy of water is utilized on this city gate that weighs hundreds of tons. To put it simply, there is a reservoir of fifteen meters in diameter on the left and right sides of this giant city wall.

If you want to raise the middle city gate, open the water gate and fill the reservoir with water. As the water level in the reservoir gradually rises, the city gate will slowly be pulled up.

When the city gate is about to descend, you only need to open a few valves under the reservoir. The giant city gate, weighing hundreds of tons, will reopen as the water levels in the reservoirs on both sides decrease. Go down.

As a tribe that is completely closed in winter and semi-closed in summer, several city gates are basically kept closed. Soldiers and tribesmen enter in batches. If it is opened for one person like today, it is also It's relatively rare.

Every time the city gate is opened and closed, hundreds of tons of water are required to transform the potential energy.

The accumulation of this potential energy relies on the manpower of the soldiers to carry the water up.
