Green felt very warm, as if he had returned to his hometown and the summer sun was shining on him.
He slowly opened his eyes and saw a bonfire. He looked at himself and saw that he was tied up with ropes.
By the light of the fire, it was revealed that this was a large cave. A group of people were lying around him, all dressed in thick clothes, warming themselves by the light of the bonfire.
He didn't dare to move, just lay on the ground and waited quietly. He finally encountered civilization and was no longer alone in the endless wilderness.
Li Xiang opened his eyes and stood up to add some fire to the bonfire. When he heard Li Xiang's footsteps, Green immediately closed his eyes and pretended not to wake up.
After adding the matches, Li Xiang walked outside the cave door, opened the door and felt a rush of cold gas.
He had been prepared for a long time. The true energy was surrounding him, the sky was slightly brighter, and the snow on the ground was thicker. The journey back to the Xiliang camp added some difficulties.
I don't know what's going on over there in Xiliang now. It's been seven or eight days since he came out. It's not very clear whether there have been any other changes in the mines and camps other than knowing that Li Xiang is safe.
However, there is no message in the system indicating that there is a foreign invasion!
When Li Xiang woke up, the other militiamen also woke up, picked up the iron pot he brought with him, went outside to get a pot of snow, put it in next to the bonfire, took out a few large white strips and put them on the bonfire to bake. After breakfast, they started again
Set off and head to the next resting point, only then can they get something to eat.
You must have a full breakfast. Put boiled water in a water bag, which can be used as a heating tool. You can also drink it when you are thirsty.
Li Xiang didn't pay attention to the people lying on the side pretending to be unconscious. If the jackals could come, then other people from the Western world could naturally come too. The guy in front of him was very lucky. If he met them, he might die of cold in the cave.
outside.
But if people from the Western world want to go to Daqian from here, they have to ask whether they agree. He doesn't care about going to Daqian from other places. But from here to Daqian, Prime Minister Li doesn't agree.
In the northwest land, because of the climate and ferocious beasts, Da Qian did not send more soldiers and horses, but only expelled some people to the northwest land to survive and develop the northwest land.
If Daqian knew that this place could lead to the Western world, people from countless forces might be waiting for Prime Minister Li. Daqian had never stopped being curious about the outside world.
Li Xiang glanced at Green, who was still in a coma, and sat by the campfire. Soon the smell of grilled fish came, and Green, who originally wanted to pretend to be unconscious, couldn't bear it anymore.
Gulu gulu!
His stomach growled uncontrollably. Li Xiang, who was sitting next to Green, turned around with the grilled fish and saw Green who had just opened his eyes, his eyes full of embarrassment.
Green quickly looked away. The human in front of him looked different from the humans he had seen. He had black hair and black eyes. He should be the legendary Oriental.
What attracted Green even more was the grilled fish in Li Xiang's hand, and the aroma continued to spread to his nose.
Green swallowed, and Li Xiang looked at Green's eyes, then at the grilled fish in his hand, put the grilled fish to Green's mouth, then looked at the other person's tied body, walked behind Green and loosened the rope.
Green was tied up last night because Prime Minister Li had no intention of letting his soldiers keep watch last night, so he could only tie up this orc who might be a danger.
Now that the militiamen and he had both woken up, Li Xiang did not think that the orc in front of him, with a long tail, as feminine and exotic as the fresh meat in Qingfeng Tower, was any threat to him and others.
If the other party was really strong, he would not fall outside the cave gate!
The northwest is a hell for the weak and a paradise for the strong. As long as you have enough strength, life will be easier and more comfortable than anywhere else.
Green was a little sluggish. He didn't expect the man in front of him to untie the rope, but now was not the time to think about it. He had forgotten how many days he had not eaten. He just wanted to eat the big fish in front of him.
Li Xiang and other soldiers also ate grilled fish. When Green finished a large white strip, Li Xiang and the militiamen also had a good breakfast.
Li Xiang took two water bottles filled with hot water, tied them with a rope, and placed them next to the green. He also hung two hot water bottles himself. A rope tied the water bottles on both sides. They can be hung around the neck or tied.
At the waist.
Holding weapons, the militiamen pushed the wheelbarrow and walked outside. Green was a little confused. He couldn't understand the other party's words at all. When Li Xiang and his party walked outside, Green immediately followed.
He was not familiar with this area at all. It was still snowing heavily outside. Although there were caves to hide from the wind and snow, there was no food.
Green had no other choice but to follow the footsteps of Li Xiang and his party. The icy cold wind that had just come out of the cave gave him the urge to run back into the cave.
But seeing Li Xiang and his entourage walking away, Green gritted his teeth and followed. If he wanted to survive, he could only keep up with the team in front.
Seeing Green following behind, Li Xiang chuckled. In this snow forest, only people from their Xiliang camp would appear. This person had no other choice but to follow them!
Holding the rope in front, the wheelbarrow pushes away the snow, making it much easier for the people behind to move forward.
Li Xiang moved forward while circulating the Qi in his body. This was a good time for practice.
Green followed behind and carefully looked at the team in front of him. The clothes these people wore were the same as the orcs, made of the furs of various beasts. The cart they were pushing was full of fish. These people should put these fish
Where to transport it.
The most challenging thing about walking in ice and snow is your perseverance. The white snow may look good for a while, but if you look at it for a long time, you will feel bored and your eyes will be very uncomfortable.
The cold intrudes on you and stimulates you all the time. Green followed the silent team. Apart from several conversations between these people while eating, Green never saw these people having any other conversations.
The man who seemed to be the leader actually pulled the rope at the front and opened a path in the snow, making it easier for those behind him.
They walked in the snow for who knows how long. The water hanging on their chests became cold and the sky became slightly darker. Green didn't know how many mountains they had bypassed, and now they were in a canyon.
Taking everyone to a concave hole in the canyon, the Jackal and his party made some improvements to the place. They used branches and the like to make a wall to block the only opening, leaving only a door.
Although the wall still leaks, it is much better than sleeping in the open air. I set up a bonfire as usual, heat the water in the bag, take a sip of hot water, and put the big white strips next to the fire to bake.
Li Xiang practiced cross-legged and did not care about anything else. When the true energy in his body circulated for a week, the martial arts reached the second level!
"Level: 4(373/800)

There is a smile that cannot be hidden on Li Xiang's face. After breaking through to the second level, he will gain more and more experience points through practice, and the speed of improving his strength will become faster and faster.
Li Xiang, who was in a good mood, ate two grilled fish before falling asleep, but he left one militiaman to keep watch all night, and replaced him with another one at midnight.
....
One day later, Li Xiang, who was physically and mentally exhausted, led his team back to the forest where the Xiliang camp was located.
Walking out of the canyon where the gnolls were destroyed, the entire team's speed more than doubled, with Green following the team with difficulty.
Xiliang Camp
After Li Xiang led his troops to the west, Li Yi began to carry out large-scale construction projects, cutting down the trees near the Xiliang camp and expanding the Xiliang camp. Buildings appeared on the snow.
Tens of thousands of units of wood have been accumulated in the warehouse, and the number is increasing every day.
The iron ore produced at the iron mine every day needs to be transported every two days. The blacksmith shop has four more blacksmiths. One blacksmith shop can transfer ten blacksmiths, but currently five blacksmiths are enough.
.
The five blacksmiths are constantly making various tools every day. Farmers who have iron tools will naturally work faster.
In just a few days, there were thirty more buildings in the Xiliang camp, including residential houses, mills, and lumberyards. As long as they could be built, Li Yi had already built them.
Now they just wait for Li Xiang to come back from the west with food and recruit fifty more farmers, so that they can enter the middle of the Dark Ages.
Li Xiang, who was pulling the wheelbarrow, could see the Xiliang camp from a distance. Green, who was following behind with difficulty, could also see the bustling camp and buildings in the distance, with black smoke rising.
Although this place didn't have the same vigor as he did on the orc grassland, he could see the vitality. There was a kind of vitality and vitality in those people who were coming and going and busy.
It's not the lifeless thing on the orc grasslands where people are forcing them to work.
"The Lord is back!" A construction worker shouted loudly when he saw Li Xiang and his party.
Li Yi, who was planning the military zone with his people in the camp, heard the noise coming from outside, and immediately walked outside the camp with a few people.
What Li Xiang's return means is that the food has also been sent back!
Li Yi has many plans in his mind, but they all require a large number of people. The only person in the Xiliang camp who has the right to recruit is the Lord.
Li Yilian walked and ran. As soon as he reached the gate of the camp, he saw ten modified wheelbarrows. Some farmers had already gone over to help pull the wheelbarrows.
Li Yiying went up and asked the question he wanted to know most: "Master, is there fish in it?"
Li Xiang saw Li Yi's expectant look and said, "It's all full of fish. What the Jackal recorded is correct. There are fish everywhere in that huge lake. These fish are just the ones we caught on the first day."
On the seventh floor, if there weren't enough transportation tools, we could transport all those fish back!"
Li Yi trotted to the wheelbarrow behind. After installing the wooden box, the wheelbarrow was very high. Li Yi, who was more than 1.7 meters tall, could just see the frozen large white fish piled in the wooden box on the roof.
Immediately returned to Prime Minister Li: "Lord, if this is the case, then we will recruit more people and send more people to fish, and strive to complete the dark age to the feudal era in winter, so that the militiamen can be transferred to become
Powerful troops!"
Li Yi saw the fish on the wheelbarrow. If these fish were used to recruit farmers, they could recruit at least twenty farmers, or even thirty farmers.
The food left in the camp now can be used to recruit thirty more farmers, so that they can upgrade to the middle of the Dark Ages and upgrade the textile factory technology.
But in this case, the food reserves at the mine will have to be used. After recruiting the population, they will have no other food reserves.
"I came back to recruit people. I have asked people to build timber warehouses and lumberyards on the Juhu side, and I am preparing to build a shipyard!" Li Xiang said as he walked: "As long as there is development there, we will not have to fight for food.
Worry, by the way, nothing happened around me recently!"
The forest here is not ordinary dangerous. The wolf and the ink-armored beast are like two sharp swords hanging above their heads in the Xiliang camp, and they will fall down from nowhere.
Li Yi: "The sentry posts in the forest have been set up. If the ink-armored beast and the wolf appear, we will know it as soon as possible!
These buildings in the camp can be destroyed, as long as there are no problems with the people!"
These buildings were destroyed. For the farmers in the Xiliang camp, it was just a matter of spending a little more time building them.
As he spoke, Li Yi thought of a question: "Master, I wonder what the environment is like over there in Juhu?"
"The environment over there is similar to here. No, it's even colder than here. The sky and the earth are completely white. There are fewer and fewer trees going further west. A little further there should be the wilderness recorded on the Jackal map!"
Li Yi was a little disappointed after hearing this. If the environment there was better, maybe the camp could be moved there, closer to the giant lake and closer to the food.
But if it is really moved, iron ore will become a problem. Iron ore is more difficult to move than fish.
"That's right!" Li Xiang thought of Green behind him: "On the way back, we met another orc from the Western world, with a tail similar to that of a fox!"
"An orc with a fox tail?" Li Yi's eyes lit up, as if he saw some fun toy: "Is it behind?"
"At the back!" Li Xiang turned around and saw Green at the end of the team. He was dressed in tatters, which still couldn't cover Green's delicate little face. Coupled with that tail, he looked like a fox-man among the demon clan.
.
Seeing Green's appearance, Li Yi shook his head with pity: "What a pity, he's a man!"
Li Xiang glanced at Li Yi: "What's the pity that he's a man?"
Li Yi chuckled and said: "If I am a female fox, I can warm your bed, my lord! The female fox is the most beautiful creature among the orcs, and humans are proud to have a fox maid!"
Don’t you want to give it a try, my lord?”
"..." Li Xiangbai and Li Yi glanced at each other: "Hurry up and send these fish to the warehouse!"
