Chapter 90 A big bird with a fiery body descended from the sky
(Happy birthday to the mother of the motherland! Happy National Day to everyone! By the way, please vote, hehe...)
This old man wearing an animal skin coat and lazily sitting in a corner basking in the sun once again subverted his imagination of witches. The mysterious and powerful image collapsed once again.
Yun Buliu walked into the stone house, took off the bamboo basket and animal skins, and then went out with Little Furball and Little Milk Tiger to talk to the old man.
He didn't dare to let Little Furball and Little Milk Tiger go out alone. After all, they were outsiders. If they were left alone, they would inevitably be bullied by the local monsters.
The old man grinned when he saw Yun Buliu walking towards him with a little baby tiger. At the same time, two little furry children, one big and one small, also walked over.
The older one is about twelve or thirteen years old, and the younger one is seven or eight years old. Behind them is a girl.
Looking at the figure and face of the girl, Yun Buliu was completely in despair.
That rough and wild appearance has nothing to do with acquired environment, but is congenital, which is determined by racial genes.
He feels that there may not be any genes among humans in this world that match his aesthetics.
Yun Buliu was a little helpless. Life was already so difficult, but life was still so difficult!
It was as if my father was trying to forcefully distort the aesthetic sense of this handsome boy.
It always leaves Yun Buliu speechless and choked.
"Young man from far away! What do you want to know from me?" the old man asked him with a smile on his face.
Those cloudy eyes seemed to see through the vicissitudes of the world.
Faced with this opening sentence, Yun Buliu was not surprised. After all, his appearance was somewhat different from that of the primitive people in these tribes. He was obviously not from this mountain.
Yun Buliu saluted the old man and sat down on the stone next to him.
He said: "I walked a long way just to ask, apart from the tribes in this mountain, are there any other places where humans gather in this world?"
"This is the place where you were born and raised, isn't it?" The old man couldn't help but laugh.
Yun Buliu was a little speechless about this. Although his words made sense, they also deserved a beating. If he hadn't looked at him as an old man, he would probably have wanted to show off his muscles.
"Old man, if I can still find a way home, I don't need to ask you."
"Oh! So I got lost!" The old man chuckled, then shook his head and sighed softly: "This mountain is so big, so big that I don't even know how big it is."
He said: "I had a similar idea when I was young, so I made an appointment with people of the same age in the tribe to see if there were other tribes beyond the mountains..."
The old man looked up at the sky where the setting sun was slanting, as if he was caught up in memories, recalling the youth they once had that has now passed away.
Then I looked at the young life and sighed, it’s great to be young!
"To the west, we don't know how far we walked. We only know that we walked for more than a year until we encountered an endless black mountain range, where thunder often fell from the sky. Even animals rarely approached there, let alone
Human beings seek good fortune and avoid evil. But there are quite a few tribes we encounter along the way. They are actually no different from us, but quite different from you."
Yun Buliu never thought that this old man would have such a crazy but wonderful time when he was young. He knew the fun and dangers of traveling in the mountains.
This requires not only courage, but also perseverance and courage.
"Going south, we walked for two years until we encountered an endless swamp. We tried to go around it, but found that it was impossible, it was too far. Behind the swamp, we could vaguely see the
Endless mountains.”
"We walked north for more than a year, but we were attacked by a giant beast. Although we finally killed the beast, the team was forced to turn around midway."
"To the east... We didn't go far to the east. After walking for about four months, we came across a prairie. There was also a big snow mountain on the edge of the prairie. We did not continue through the endless prairie.
, because most of us are tired.”
The old man shook his head slightly, "Some brothers have left and will never come back. Some are also preparing to start families and can't continue like this. So we finally returned to the tribe. For the continuation and reproduction of the tribe, we had to transfer those who were no longer in the tribe.
Buried with practical thoughts..."
As he spoke, he looked at Yun Buliu and smiled: "Young man, you are very good for daring to go out alone to explore this endless mountain. But you are also very stupid. You have lost your way. Even your original tribe is here.
It can’t be found anywhere.”
Yun Buliu was a little helpless, and finally asked: "I wonder if the old man has traveled to so many places when he was young, have he ever encountered a tribe that looks similar to me?"
As a result, the answer the old man gave him made him sigh helplessly.
"In this endless stretch of mountains, there are countless tribes, large and small, hidden. There are nearly a thousand tribes we met along the way. If we add those we heard about, there are really countless tribes.
.But even so, I have never seen a human being who looks like you."
The old man shook his head slightly and continued: "Our body frames are bigger than yours. Compared with your face shape, our faces are rounder, shorter and flatter..."
In fact, their appearance is the type of 'broad forehead, flat nose, sunken eye sockets, big mouth, short jaw and high cheekbones', so they look somewhat rough.
"However, we don't know what the situation is like in the east, because we have never been to the east." The old man said, and then asked: "You must have come from the east, right? In the early winter last year, the mountains and forests in the east were
There was a wildfire... You came here after the wildfire, right?"
"Well, yes! You are really good at predicting things! It was when I saw the mountain fire extinguished that I planned to look over here to see if I could meet any human beings I am familiar with."
The old man laughed and said: "Obviously, young man, you are looking in the wrong direction!"
Yun Buliu smiled and shook his head, "With the mountain fire, the wild beasts in the mountains have gone crazy. If I go east, I will inevitably encounter those wild beasts. And the safest direction is to the west."
The old man smiled, acquiescing to Yun Buliu's statement.
Yun Buliu silently looked through his little notebook in his mind, and he could cross out the item about asking about the outside world. The so-called outside world could basically be judged as non-existent.
And the old man in front of him is obviously much more reliable than the elder.
Among the elders, the most powerful ones he knew were the so-called six major tribes.
But in the eyes of this old man, the tribes he has seen are countless.
The second question is about practice. This question has also been asked to Yanjiao. Looking back, Shemu Shegu and the others will also follow the young and strong people in the tribe to practice. Then he will have time to try again.
The third question was originally about learning about herbal medicine, but now I have to add some more, including learning how to plant those crops, raise seedlings, etc.
The fourth question is about some issues of ancient civilization, such as ancient texts, ancient cultivation methods, ancient artifacts, evil spirits, etc.
Thinking of this, Yun Buliu felt that there was no need to consider leaving in the short term.
Phew...
Suddenly there was a chirping of birds in the sky, and then a black shadow enveloped them.
Yun Buliu raised his head and looked at it, and was stunned.
I saw a big bird with its body on fire falling from the sky.
