Nothing happened for several days in a row, and the days became boring, especially since Wang Jinlong's wallet was exhausted and there was no new source of money for a while, and Yang Muyun's mood became irritable.
But at this time, a loud thunder sounded over the tribe, causing Yang Muyun to shiver and even shrink his neck unconsciously.
Other creatures also looked up to the sky, and then returned to the earth.
The elderly creatures sighed one after another: Spring is here.
Yang Muyun stood on the hillside, looking at the undulating wilderness in front of him.
After so many years, this was the first time that Yang Muyun recognized the land beneath his feet with the perspective of appreciating the scenery and observing the world.
The snow began to melt, and the silvery ground turned into scars overnight, and the smooth snow became pitted. After tearing away the holy appearance, patches of yellow, brown, and black skin were revealed.
Corpses that had been killed by the severe cold and buried for a whole winter began to appear one after another, becoming the harvest of some lucky people who picked up the corpses. Although the corpses were frozen hard, they still couldn't stop their warm mouths, bit by bit, picking up the corpses.
Warm it, soften it, and then swallow it with the skin and bones.
Although the ice age is unstoppable, it will not come overnight. Spring may be late, but it will never disappear.
The stubborn grass pushed through the soil and pushed away the snow, adding a touch of yellow to the white ground. Even though it was torn apart by the cold wind that night, more and more grass still arched out to compete with the snow and ice for territory.
.
This is an invisible fight, but the abundant vitality covers everything.
The spring in the north is very short, so the plants and trees are racing against time to grow, as if they want to release the life that has been suppressed all winter.
It seems that all the vitality of the year will bloom in the warm sunshine, bloom and bear fruit quickly, and then continue to be silent in the cold winter.
Creatures in hibernation dug through the soil one after another, stretching their skinny bodies while looking for delicious food.
Yang Muyun lowered his head and watched a rat-like creature emerge from the soil slope under his feet. This mouse was followed by a string of smaller rats.
It was very hidden. If they hadn't come out on their own initiative, Yang Muyun wouldn't have known there was a cave under his feet. There were seven or eight little beings living in the cave.
"Dashi, have you seen Zhi?"
Dashi nodded, "Chief, you caught a lot last year and roasted them to eat."
"Is it tasty?"
"It's delicious!" But Dashi hesitated for a moment and said, "But bugs are the food of goblins. We barbarians should eat meat, and eat large pieces of meat."
Yang Muyun did not want to eat cicadas, but felt that various birds and beasts were like cicadas and monkeys underground. They could not be seen all winter, but when the time came, they burst out of the ground collectively and announced their existence to the world.
Dashi looked at the wandering herd of beasts in the distance and asked in a low voice: "Chief, we are going to start hunting. The old people say that you cannot hunt female beasts and young beasts in spring, but you can hunt the old, weak, sick and disabled."
Yang Muyun shook his head, "Hunting is to fill our stomachs. We are not hungry now, so why hunt."
Dashi was stunned for a moment, as if this was really the truth.
Yang Muyun looked at a few shameless animals in the distance and said in a strange tone: "What I'm worried about now is not the food problem, but the mating season of all things."
When spring comes and food is plentiful, many animals will be driven by instinct to reproduce the next generation. In order to find suitable mates, they usually migrate over large areas and long distances.
The migration of flocks of birds and beasts will bring a lot of food, but it will also bring a lot of dangers - predators that follow the herds.
There are dangers everywhere, and no one knows what opponents they will encounter.
There's no need to worry since Laxida is in charge at home, but I can't stay at home all the time. It's still necessary to patrol the mountains every day.
But at this juncture, the elephant-headed man is leaving, and spring is here, and these two happy bachelors are going to look for the elephants. If they miss these few days, they will have to wait another year.
Yang Muyun thought about bending two elephant-headed men, so that he could get rid of the vulgar taste and become a pure elephant-headed warrior.
But I really didn’t know how to start, so I had to give up.
Since we can't keep them, we can only bid farewell to them.
A net bag was hung around their necks, and the bag was full of slime marbles.
The elephant-headed man will use his trunk as an air gun, and he can shoot accurately and hard.
It's just that stones picked up from anywhere are easy to leak and can scratch the nostrils. Pinballs made of slime have good airtightness and will not scratch the nostrils. They are the favorite things of the elephant-headed people.
In addition, Yang Muyun also gave the two elephant-headed men a few pills to strengthen the foundation and cultivate the yuan, and prepared large and small packages of gifts.
Not to mention salt and sugar, I also brought a few home-grown potatoes and some banana chips from the earth. The elephants have definitely never eaten these, but they will definitely like them.
The elephant-headed man kept saying that enough was enough and that he didn't need so much, but Yang Muyun was still trying to hang on them.
The situation was like the young boy in the family going to the girl's house for the first time, carrying a dozen bags to visit relatives.
The difference is that no matter how strong the young boy is, he can only bring back one girl, while the elephant-headed man is very likely to bring back a group of girls, all of whom are his sister-in-law and mother-in-law.
The tauren did not leave.
In the last battle with the ogres, the tauren were the main force. The males of the tribe suffered heavy casualties, leaving behind a bunch of orphans and widows. The task of these four tauren warriors was very heavy.
The kobolds also came with their tribe, but there were not too many females in the tribe, so they couldn't keep up with each other at all. The kobolds patrolled the mountains even harder, explored the territory, and wanted to find suitable targets among the migrating beasts.
The pig-headed man's side is even simpler.
Their clan leader, Steel Hyena, immediately showed off his majesty. He first drove away all the males in the clan, and then drove away his own offspring among the adult females, and then started singing every night.
In previous years, there would have been a big fight at this time, but after following Yang Muyun, Steel Hyena ate well and slept soundly, and also got good things like giant claw crabs, potatoes, and elixirs.
He was originally the strongest in the clan, and after long-term strengthening of his foundation, his strength increased faster, and his size became larger. The other pig-headed men didn't even have the courage to challenge, so they quickly got out.
The pig-headed men who were driven out fought to become the patriarch's son-in-law. The winner began to serve cabbage in front of his father-in-law's house. The loser only had to stay away from this sad place and go outside to find wandering love.
If you are lucky, you can meet some pig-headed people from other groups. If you are not lucky, you will have to make do with pig beasts. If you are unlucky, you will become a meal for other predators.
Goblins are relatively normal. They are a family-based group. Males and females who have just grown up begin to marry and form families, which is somewhat in line with Yang Muyun's understanding.
But this year is a little different. The Goblin leader, Cuckold, has a bloodline and has exceeded his own limits, becoming a more powerful goblin. All the female goblins surrounded Cuckold, performing various courtship movements.
As a result, all the newly adult male goblins became bachelors.
As the ice melts and the snow melts, the dry rivers become more rapid day by day. Young frogs occupy water moors, ponds, and river bends, croaking day and night, not only to declare their territory, but also to call for the arrival of females.
Taking a look at the spring-filled river valley, Yang Muyun sighed heavily. It would be fine if he didn't know anything, but he knew better than them. So upset, he could only run outside to clean up, and stayed there for more than ten days.
Spending time outside.
"I'm still a child, and I have to endure such unbearable pain. Master River Crab, please come and take care of them."
At this time, Dashi patted Yang Muyun on the shoulder, "Chief, look, there is someone over there..."
