Chapter 263 The Light of the Origin
It is difficult to know whether the concept of taboo exists on the edge of civilization and barbarism.
Under the threat of many dangers, these things that were taken for granted in the civilized era have become chaotic.
Perhaps when intelligent life begins to dominate an area, these things will gradually sprout.
But at this moment, it is obviously dim and pale.
Some humanoid creatures walked slowly and cautiously on the wild mountains.
Since the soil in this mountain range is sparse, there is little vegetation.
Compared to the forest not far away, it is obviously safer here.
The plants growing wildly in the forest make walking extremely dangerous.
The poisonous insects hiding under the humus layer and dense branches and leaves are enough to cause a lot of trouble.
In the primitive era when medical treatment was not yet established, poisoning would greatly reduce the survival rate.
These humanoids walk in silence.
They need to cross this mountain range and go to another area to obtain additional salt that can be preserved.
In a few days, winter will come.
Scarce meat food storage needs to be balanced in another way.
The strongest humanoid creature walked at the front, his green eyes full of vigilance.
Although this mountain range is safer than the forest next to it.
But without the cover of trees, hunters from the sky will more easily detect their presence.
This time they were lucky and they passed through the mountains safely.
But at this moment, the leading humanoid creature seemed to hear some sounds.
"drink!"
He stopped instantly and squatted on the ground.
The humanoid creature behind him also entered a state of alert following his movements.
This was an unfamiliar sound. The humanoid creature in the lead had never heard such a sound before.
In such a natural environment, the unknown means great danger.
For a long time, nothing happened.
The leading humanoid creature carefully stood up from the ground and continued to move forward with the humanoid creature behind it.
But that strange sound still echoed in his ears...
…………
…………
It was late at night and the process of taking the salt went smoothly.
The salt they brought back was enough for everyone to survive this long night.
The bonfire, which has been burning ever since the tribe gathered, emits warmth and bright light.
The humanoid creatures began their daily night life.
But the humanoid creature headed by Bai Tian refused the call of the female beside him.
"drink……"
The female next to her made some unhappy sound and then fell into a dull sleep.
But the humanoid creatures fell into another situation.
The shouts in his ears became more and more intense...
Suddenly, he seemed to see a big tree.
what is that?
He is thinking.
Taking a rare breather, he tried to use his own wisdom to understand the unknown in his ears.
But there was nothing to gain - it was something completely foreign to him.
He felt that those voices seemed to be filled with something that was difficult to express.
It is different from the roar of wild beasts and the call of tribesmen.
It has some mysterious charm, like the sting of a poisonous bee that makes people feel itchy...
what is that?
Darkness gradually enveloped everything.
A strange, strong emotion that makes humanoid creatures unable to sleep.
He slowly climbed up from the soft hay.
He walked out, out of the warm, safe area.
The cold night wind blew against his thick fur.
Carrying the humid air from a distant area, the chill is as painful as needle pricks.
He hesitated...
The dangers at night are no less rare than during the day.
The harsh and violent environment is sometimes more deadly than wild beasts.
But something was lingering in his mind.
It was a throbbing, a calling!
It makes death less scary.
It makes the night less ferocious.
He's going there for something...
In confusion, the humanoid creature moves through the dangerous forest, avoiding the hunting beasts.
In the biting cold wind, he came to a big tree.
The humanoid creature stared at the tall trees in front of it.
This was the first time he saw such a tall tree.
It is so high that under the cover of night, its deep shadows are as suffocating as the mountains.
The humanoid creature doesn't know why it came here.
Risking death, coming here on this cold night...
But when he raised his head and saw the leaves on the towering treetops.
He felt like he understood something...
It was like the roaring sound in my ears after moving down from the towering mountains.
Everything seems different.
It seems like something is just a little bit off...
The humanoid creature touched its sore gums.
He has lived long enough among his kind.
Maybe in some time, he will be like others of his kind:
Be the fuel for that bonfire…
After a long time, the humanoid creature began to try to climb.
The rough tree bark made his climb less difficult.
In a daze, the humanoid creature felt a certain gaze.
It's like the way you look at a cub of the same kind.
The kindness of elders?
For a moment, these words appeared in the mind of the humanoid creature.
But what is that?
The humanoid creature didn't know, he just climbed slowly and firmly.
Little by little, little by little closer to the treetops that seemed to penetrate deep into the clouds...
As he climbed, the sound of wind in his ears gradually became noisy.
It seemed like something was angry.
The humanoid creature hesitated again, feeling like he was entering the territory of a beast.
But the throbbing in his heart made him bite the bullet and keep climbing.
As the height increases, the sound of wind in the ears becomes more violent!
It's like the lightning on the other side, and like the fire on the earth!
The coldness gradually took away his body temperature, and the fire of life disappeared little by little...
Finally, he climbed to a treetop.
He can already reach a leaf...
The humanoid creature clung to the tree trunk, and stretched out its trembling hands to grab a leaf.
boom!
Thunder suddenly flashed in the sky! A strong white light illuminated everything!
But in the consciousness of humanoid creatures, something brighter than thunder is roaring!
"head……"
He tried to make a sound.
Under the dark night again, he gave himself a name.
But at this time, due to the influence of low temperature, his body began to lose control.
His stiff palms were released from the tree trunk, and he fell from the treetops like a bird with broken wings!
His tired nerves could no longer support miracles, and darkness overwhelmed him...
But at this moment, some invisible force supported him.
Like an elder, he slowly fell to the ground.
The poisonous insects around them left one after another, as if something was driving them.
Some nocturnal beasts passed by him, but he ignored them.
Gradually, the night fades, and the day brings warmth and hope...
"head……"
The humanoid creature woke up from the coma, and in an instant he saw the morning light and the sea of stars.
He saw hope...
