Chapter 76: The herd of beasts that can penetrate walls
After a while, behind the four connected drops of ice crystal jade dew, another drop sprang out, forming a connected line of five drops.
At this time, the five drops of ice crystal jade dew connected in a straight line seemed to be attracted by something, and gradually curved until they were connected end to end, forming a circular ice crystal jade dew circle.
Suddenly, a clear ray of light radiated from the ice crystal jade dew circle, illuminating the entire space between the eyebrows.
Gongliang, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, couldn't help but shudder, and his whole body began to tremble with comfort.
He still had his eyes closed, but he seemed to be able to see things around him dimly.
The little chicken seemed to feel something, and suddenly looked up at Gongliang. Round and round, he was lying on his nest and sleeping stupidly. Next door, Uncle Dashi's family was also sleeping, and Xiaoshi naughtily put his little feet across Xiaoshi's belly.
Huh!!!
How could I see Uncle Da Shi's family? Isn't there a thick stone wall between their two families?
what happened?
Just as he was about to explore, his mind suddenly became drowsy, so he fell on the bed and fell asleep.
Early in the morning, while Gongliang was still in a daze, he was shaken awake by someone. When he opened his eyes, he saw that it was Xiaoshi.
"What are you doing?" Gongliang asked, rubbing his sleepy eyes.
"Get up quickly, something happened outside." Xiao Shi said anxiously.
"What happened?"
"You'll know when you get out."
I had never seen Xiao Shi so impatient before. Gong Liang got up quickly and was pulled out of the house before he could wash up. It was very lively outside. The village gate was closed at some point, and a bunch of people stood in front of the door to watch the excitement. Xiao Shi pulled him
Gongliang squeezed into the crowd and looked out. He didn't know when a large group of ferocious beasts had arrived across the stream.
The wooden bridge that originally spanned the stream had been removed, and the ferocious beasts had no place to stay, so they tried to cross the stream on the water.
When the ferocious beast swam to the middle, the giant turtle, which had been waiting in the stream for a long time, suddenly poked its head out and bit the ferocious beast in the stream.
After a while, the blood stained the surface of the stream red.
The smell of blood attracted a large number of giant turtles, and for a time, the ferocious beast crossing the river became a delicacy in the mouths of many giant turtles.
Gongliang couldn't help but feel lucky that he didn't kill too many giant turtles before, otherwise there wouldn't be such a group of giant turtles protecting the village.
There were more and more ferocious beasts crossing the stream, and some who were familiar with water even launched attacks on the giant turtles. The giant turtles gradually lost their battle, suffered heavy losses, and were bitten to death. Seeing that the situation was not right, the giant turtles in the stream sank into the water one after another, ambush in the river.
Next to them, attack some smaller ferocious beasts, preferably ones that can be swallowed in one bite.
"Why are there so many ferocious beasts over there?" Gong Liang asked Xiao Shi strangely. He was surprised in his heart, why he only stayed at home for a few days, but things changed outside.
"I don't know either. I heard they said that the ferocious beasts in the mountains had nothing to eat and came to us looking for food?" Xiaoshi replied honestly.
"Looking for food?" Gongliang had a question mark on his forehead. Why did he come to the tribe looking for food?
Suddenly, he felt something was wrong. Did those ferocious beasts come to find them and regard them as prey?
It would not be good if this were the case.
So many ferocious beasts swam over, and the tribe didn't know how many people would die.
Gong Liang turned around and took a look, only to realize that there was something wrong with the atmosphere in the tribe today. Everyone was very nervous. Looking more closely, he found that the village gate had been reinforced at some point, and a layer of thick wood chips and iron sheets were nailed to it. There were also
There was a pile of spare thick logs. Next to it, rows of horses stood erect with sharp spikes.
It seems that the tribe is well prepared.
Curious, I walked around and found that not only were there Juma at the village gate, but also the area within thirty meters of the mountain wall around the tribe was full of Juma.
Most of these horses are made of hard wood, some are iron spears, some are steel spears, and some are bone spears. Rows of horses stand there, like ferocious beasts with fangs exposed, and they are extremely fierce.
To be honest, some of the bone spears here are harder than iron spears and steel spears, provided they are made from the bones of high-level ferocious beasts.
After walking around for a while, he saw that not only the tribe was surrounded by horses, but Mabe's newly built wooden house was also filled with archers.
They all held bows and arrows in hand and looked nervously at the mountain walls around the tribe, as if they were afraid of the ferocious beasts jumping down from the mountain walls.
Occasionally looking up, he also found wooden frames nailed to the stone wall about fifty meters above the ground, filled with tribal warriors holding bows and arrows.
Seeing that the tribe was heavily guarded and nervous, Gongliang felt that something was a bit serious, so he wanted to find someone to ask what was going on? Unfortunately, Xiaoshi didn't know anything. When he asked the people next to him, they all said that it was a herd of beasts attacking. Others just asked
San didn't know. After thinking about it, he decided to ask the witch, and by the way, he gave him the animal skin scroll containing the real bones of the runes and the bone cylinder containing the bone divination.
So, he walked back.
Only then did he remember that he hadn't washed up or had breakfast when he got up in the morning, and it was all because of this guy Xiao Shi.
When I got home, the chickens were already so hungry that they were chirping there.
Yuan Gungun was even more dissatisfied and roared beside him. Not only was he hungry, he was also complaining that the chickens were always chirping, which was very annoying. Originally, he was still sleeping, but he was woken up. This guy is really lazy.
Gongliang quickly went to the kitchen to get food and served them one by one, and the two guys stopped making noise. He also started eating.
After eating, he took his things and walked towards the witch.
There is something wrong with the atmosphere in the Ancestral Temple today. When I came here in the past, the Ancestral Temple was dark. Today, the flames of the Ancestral God that originally appeared during worship were burning on the stone pillars, dancing in enchanting ways.
After taking a look, Gongliang walked inside.
Wu was burying his head in front of the low table writing something, while Yuhan and Xiao Yuyu were waiting beside him. Speaking of which, he hadn't seen Yuhan for a while.
As soon as he saw Gongliang coming, Yuhan turned his head away and stopped talking to him. Gongliang didn't know where he had offended her.
When he saw the wizard writing something, he didn't dare to disturb him. He just sat respectfully beside him holding the animal skin scroll.
After a while, Wu raised his head after finishing writing and found him, "You're here."
"Yes," Gong Liang responded and put the animal skin roll and bone tube in his hand on the table, "Witch, I have seen these and brought them back to you."
Wu glanced at him, patted the animal skin roll and said, "Have you remembered everything?"
"Remember it." Not only did he write it all down, but he also copied it carefully, but he didn't say it for fear that the witch would be displeased.
"Not only must you remember it, but you must also be able to use it. The art of bone divination is too mysterious. I only know the surface of it. You have to understand everything by yourself."
"yes."
After Wu finished speaking, he took out another bone cylinder from the shelf. There was a pattern carved on the bone cylinder, but he didn't know what it meant.
"This is the usage method related to the rune bones. Originally I didn't want to give it to you because this thing is harmful to you, but if you go out, sooner or later you will encounter wild beasts and get the rune bones. This thing is particularly important to you.
.The outside world is not as simple as our tribe. With this thing here, it may be able to save your life at a critical moment. I will give it to you now, but remember, it is not the last moment when you are forced into a desperate situation.
Never use the power of the rune bones."
"yes."
Gongliang responded respectfully and took the bone tube. Seeing the witch, he took out a blank animal skin and wrote on it. He quickly asked: "Witch, I see there are many ferocious beasts coming outside. I don't know what's going on?"
He didn't ask, but when he asked the witch, he glared and scolded: "You! You just didn't take a good look at what I gave you. There was a record in the former witch's animal skin scroll: "The snow is flying, everything is damaged, and the ferocious beasts in the forest are hungry and cold.
Forced, displaced, and eventually gathered in groups to attack the tribe. 'Don't you know?"
Gongliang really didn't see the relevant records, so he couldn't help but smile.
Wu was annoyed and waved his hand to let him go.
But Gongliang still had something to ask, so he quickly said: "Witch, I would like to ask, why do the ferocious beasts in the forest avoid my giant bones and dare not come over?"
