On the ground covered with thick white snow, there is a line of people wrapped in animal skins, holding weapons, and trekking hard.
These people huddled up in the cold wind and kept looking around, eager to find some prey to fill their empty bellies.
However, what made them feel uncomfortable was that after a heavy snowfall, some animals that had appeared in warm weather disappeared again and became extremely difficult to find.
They knew that the food they most urgently needed was buried under the thick snow. However, what was disappointing was that they could not find it at all under the snow.
After searching for a while but finding no living animals, the leader of the Huangguo Tribe angrily raked the ground with the stick he held in his hand, trying to find some frozen prey in the thick snow.
.
Such behavior was of course in vain, but at the very edge of the team, a surprise appeared.
A rabbit that got into a snow nest to eat hay was startled.
When walking in thick snow, the longer the legs, the better.
Just like the rabbit now, he tried his best to jump, but he couldn't get out of the snow very high, and the distance he could cross was no more than 30 centimeters, and he fell into the snow nest again.
The heavy team burst into joy, and then the short-legged rabbit lost its life and was carried by its ears in someone's hand.
The surprise brought by the rabbit made everyone excited again, staring with uncomfortable eyes, trying their best to find prey.
The reason why surprises are called surprises is because the probability of the event itself happening is not high.
So in the following time, surprises never happened again.
Holding his hand that had little feeling, he looked up at the low-temperature sun in the sky. The leader of the Huangguo tribe felt very uncomfortable.
Even when he was about to come out, he asked the people who stayed in the cave to untie his furs and asked the people who came out to surround him. He himself was surrounded by thick furs, but his body was still blown by the biting cold wind.
Have to tremble.
He really wanted to take the people back to the cave, sit around the warm fire, drink the warm soup, and never suffer like this again.
But when he thought about the fact that the tribe only had enough food for two days at most, he forcefully suppressed this thought.
You can't go back. If you go back now, someone in the tribe will starve to death and be eaten...
There is another team trekking in the snow.
Mao, who was wrapped tightly and had gray-brown linen strips tied around his eyes, walked at the front of the team and kept looking around.
Shang looked at Mao and couldn't help but feel a little moved.
At this time, under the heavy snow, the surrounding area was completely white, and some of the more eye-catching signs were covered up, losing their previous appearance.
Along the way, he felt a sense of déjà vu in many places he saw. He secretly identified three places that were similar to the Huangguo tribe, but each time, Mao led the team forward without stopping much.
"There, Huangguo tribe..."
Mao looked around for a while and pointed in the west direction. Shang then looked over and felt that it was somewhat similar, but it didn't seem to be the same.
He was completely stunned.
When you arrive near the Huangguo tribe, turn to the other side. After passing Goudan Mountain, walk some distance and you will slowly return to the tribe.
At this time, Shang had completely handed over the task of finding the way to Mao. When Mao said this, everyone in the team couldn't help but feel a little happy.
It is true that they have a lot of 'equipment', but they are also unwilling to stay in the increasingly cold weather. Along the way, the people in the team have thought about the warmth of the tribe many times.
Kang, and delicious food.
At this time, after hearing that the Huangguo tribe was nearby, everyone was in high spirits and led the deer in the direction of the tribe.
The team turned around, and after walking a short distance, Mao, who was walking at the front, suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong?"
Shang quickly asked out loud, he was worried that Mao Ji had taken the wrong route back.
Mao handed the rope holding the deer to a person behind him and asked him to hold it while he himself went to the end of the team to find Shang.
"Remember the wrong way?"
Shang spoke up again.
Mao shook his head confidently, how could he remember the wrong way?
Seeing this, Shang immediately breathed a sigh of relief. It's not just that he remembered the wrong way.
"Huangguo Tribe..."
Mao pointed in the direction of the Huangguo tribe.
What happened to the Huangguo tribe? Didn’t you go there not long ago?
Basically everything that their tribe could exchange was exchanged, not even the animal skins were left much.
Shang was a little confused and didn't understand what Mao meant by mentioning the Huangguo tribe at this time.
As a businessman, Shang is not as gifted as a trader.
Seeing that Shang didn't understand what was going on, Mao started to talk with a smile.
When they arrived at the Huangguo tribe not long ago, there was not much food left in the Huangguo tribe. Even if the people of the Huangguo tribe did not exchange much salt and pottery this time, all they exchanged were basically food.
Because the Huangguo tribe had too few things that could be exchanged, the food exchanged from them could not last them long.
If the weather continues to warm up, there won't be much of a problem. The problem is that now the weather is colder than before, and the Huangguo tribe's food will accordingly become insufficient.
If they bring food there at this time, can they allow people from the Huangguo tribe to join their tribe?
Having often led people to do business, Mao had already developed a relatively keen sense of smell. Especially when he thought about what the Son of God had told them before about the lack of manpower in the tribe, he became even more determined in this idea.
After listening to Mao's words, Shang's eyes also lit up.
Compared to Trade, he feels the most directly about this matter.
A large part of the reason why he brought people to join the tribe in the first place was because there was a lack of food in the tribe and the people could no longer survive.
Now the Huangguo tribe is also short of food. If I wait for others to come over, then...
After thinking about the matter, Shang shook Mao's hand vigorously and expressed his agreement with Mao's idea.
Therefore, the trading team that was supposed to return to the Qingque Tribe turned around and headed towards the cave of the Huangguo Tribe.
At this time, Shang wanted to reach the Huangguo tribe faster than Mao.
Having encountered a similar situation back then, he hoped to save the people of the Huangguo tribe from hunger and death.
In this way, our tribe will become stronger, and the people of the Huangguo tribe will not have to starve to death.
