In the middle reaches of the river, The Moer-Gan was about one hundred kilometers down the roadside.

  "Da-Ren, that's the scent of tracer powder. We've searched the neighborhood carefully, and we haven't found the High Priest and his guards. But we found that under a very hidden rock by the river, maybe the High Priest used the bag of yuan-crystal coins as a clue. Fortunately, we have tracer issues. Otherwise, we'll send them out. Not now. I think this is probably the deliberate clue left by The High Priest." The scouts presented the bags.

  The guard next to Zhe Fei took the bag and Zhe Fei asked, "Have you opened it yet?"

  The scouting man nodded. "There's Yuan-crystal coins in it, and there's a couple of weird things in it."

  Zhe Fei took the bag, opened it and poured everything into the stone.

  Yuan-crystal coins shine in the sun. Besides yuan-crystal coins, there are two strange non-stone and non-bone objects. They look like some kind of jewelry, with dark surroundings and bright middle.

  Zhe Fei picked up the jewelry and looked at it carefully. He put it in his mouth and bit it. His guard could not stop him.

  "This belongs to The Moer-Gan?" Zhe Fei asked.

  “I grabbed a couple of The Moer-Gan Peoples and interrogated them. They said The Moer-Gan had no such thing, but one of the slaves told me that he saw a tribesman wearing such jewelry in the spring market.”

  "Which tribe?"

  "The slave was not very clear. Da-Ren, are we going to enter The Moer-Gan?"

  Fei Li disagreed: "The Moer-Gan is an affiliated tribe to one of the city that are affiliated with one of the cities affiliated with city in the lower city. We are not the same city as that city. We will directly call the people who are brave enough to come directly to Yong Qi city."

  Zhe Fei rubbed the surface of the copper decoration, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

  "Da-Ren?"

  Zhe Fei raised his hand. "We can't let the people of Yong Qi City know that our High Priest is dead, but we can ask the Moer-Gan about the origin of the jewelry. Fei Li, you'll do it."

  "Yes!" Fei Li wanted to stop talking. He wanted to ask Zhe Fei what he talked after meeting the Chief of the Jiu Yuan. Why did his general fell a revenge on them, but told them not fight the Jiu Yuan for the time being?

  Speaking of The Jiu Yuan Chief, Fei Li bit his lips. The warrior's mark on that face also disappeared. He thought that even if he could see the warrior's mark, his blood ability would not exceed 5th ranks. This was still an overestimated guess. After all, it was only less than a year since he escaped from the Jiu Yuan.

  But the moment he saw the man, he felt a huge energy that should not belong to the lower rank warriors at all. The pressures of the higher rank warrior almost made him breathless.

  Then the Jiu Yuan Chief and their General Zhe Fei walked together in The Jiu Yuan. The general did not let them approach, and no one knew what they had talked about.

  Two days later, Fei Li was personally sent out of the tribe by The Moer-Gan Chief and The Priest.

  Fei Li told ZheFei what he had discovered.

  "The Ding Yue Tribe? Can they refine copper?" Zhe Fei is playing with copper ornaments.

  Fei Li's face was grave. "I heard the Moer-Gan People say that this weapon made of copper is very powerful and easier to make than bone weapons."

  "What about Ding Yue people?"

  "They are gone, I heard they were looking for the Mer-people, and their Chief seemed to want the Longevity drug from the Mer-people."

  "The Mer-people? The Longevity Drug?" Zhe Fei had a sneering sneer on his face. "The Ding Yue Tribe's Chief is not too ambitious."

  "Where did they come from?" Fei Li speculated, "What kind of copper objects can they make? How could they make copper? Who helped them? Da-Ren, did the legendary Fruit of Witchcraft fall into the hands of the Ding Yue Tribe? If so, it's not surprising that the High Priest and his warriors were killed. The High Priest must have tracked down The Fruit of Witchcraft in Ding Yue's hands, and in order to keep their Fruit of Witchcraft secret, the Ding Yue people put The High Priest……"

  Zhe Fei, "The Ding Yue Tribe is downstream of the river?"

  "Yes."

  "Let’s go and see."

  "Da-Ren, winter is coming……"

  "Let’s go to Ding Yue."

  In a twinkling of an eye, it's late winter.

  Yan Mo had to let the bone bird land because of the heavy snow and poor vision.

  "It seems that I saw a cave just now. It's near here." Bing points south.

  Yuan Zhan stepped out of the bone bird and pulled the scarf used to cover the snow from his neck, wrapped it around his mouth and nose, baring only his eyes.

  "Go over and check it, be careful." Yuan Zhan ordered Ding Ning Ding Fei to come out after him.

  The brothers nodded, wrapped up their fur coats and headed in the direction Bing pointed out against the snowstorm.

  Yuan Zhan turned his head and saw Bing with bows and arrows on his back, turning around in a bad mood.

  Bing ignored him.

  Yan Mo followed Da-da and finally came out of the bone bird. From head to toe, he was wrapped up in fur. So he still felt a little cold, especially in his toes.

  \r \r \r

  He was not so cold last winter. This unfortunate haunting old man's body!

  Bing walked up to Yan Mo and frowned. "You don't see your body now, you should wear your hat!"

  Yan Mo smiled and put on his leather cap.

  As soon as Da-da emerged from the bone bird, he turned into a beast form. He went to Yan Mo, who had taken up the bone bird. He opened his mouth and bit the horn of his robe. "Oh!"

  "Speak like others." Yan Mo patted him on the head.

  "Oh!"

  Yuan Zhan looked back. "Stop playing! You go sit on Da-da. It's snowy. You should be cautious about getting stuck in the snow.”

  The Da-da beast opened his mouth again and tugged at the corner of his robe. Yan Mo surrendered. "Okay, I know. I'll sit up right now." He's not used to it.

  Jiu Feng little head poked out of Yan Mo's arms, and "Hey" he shrunk back. Although his feathers were not cold, he liked to stay in his Mo-Mo arms.

  Yan Mo looked at the heavy snow and rubbed his hands. He said, "Maybe we should come out again in spring."

  "Didn't Wu Guo say that his identity had been found? If we continue to stay in Jiu Yuan, we are more likely to be exposed, and it’s safer to leave the Jiu Yuan now." Yuan Zhan walked back to Yan Mo and squeezes Bing aside.

  Bing automatically bypassed him and went to the other side of Yan Mo.

  "I know." After a few words, Yan Mo felt his mouth was numb with cold and his words were not very clear.

  The whine of trumpets came from the snow.

  Yuan Zhan, "It looks safe ahead. Let's go."

  Da-da pedaled lightly on the snow, carrying a man on his back and running faster than Yuan Zhan.

  Yuan Zhan did not see any changes in his soles, but he walked in the snow as usual as when he walked on the earth.

  Bing had a hard time walking, but he was unwilling to ask Yuan Zhan to help him. He simply pulled his leg forward with a shallow foot and a deep foot step.

  "A-Zhan!" Yan Mo roared back.

  Bing has an extra sled on his feet, so he can walk without worrying about falling into the snow.

  Yuan Zhan pulled Bing's collar, dragged him along and satirized him, "Why did you have to follow? The tribe needs you. We don't need you. You can't even walk when you come out!"

  Bing rebutted him: "as Chief, you don't stay in tribes, protect and develop the tribe, and instead you run behind Priest Da-Ren butt. And how do you know I'm useless? Who saw the cave in the snowy sky just now? Besides, you are not too young. You should find a woman in the tribe to give birth to a son who can inherit your God's blood. Winter is the best time to give birth to a baby.”

  "Mo is my woman."

  "I dare you to say that aloud in front of him?"

  Yuan Zhan…… It seemed that he was a bit scared. He would have dared before, but now, why not? But even if he dare not say it, he still has a way to hit the young person in front of him.

  Yuan Zhan stopped and pulled Bing in front of him. He said in a low voice, "Mo already has my child in his stomach, two of them!"

  Bing, "…… Fxck! I don't believe it!"

  Yuan Zhan is now like a leopard who defeated the enemy to claim the mating rights. He is holding his head, and even a superfluous sentence is no longer explained to his defeated opponent.

  Bing, "I, no, believe!" If Priest Da-Ren can have children, he will have one with Priest Da-Ren, regardless of the cost.

  In the snowstorm, Yan Mo sat on Da-da's back and did not hear the voice behind him. Occasionally, he looked back and saw that the two were still walking in harmony. No one had been lost, so he no longer cared about them. Yuan Zhan's cattle face hated Bing from toe to hair, but he would not really throw Bing on the road. Bing is a person who is more concerned about the big picture. Perhaps his personality is not very pleasant, but he also has his advantages, especially when he gives loyalty, he will not easily betray.

  But Bing was surprising when he offered to come out with them.

  The reason for Bing coming is that his blood ability needs to be exercised. But in the tribe, he basically cannot get the chance to exercise. Most of the ranks of the warriors who have awakened in the same period as him have surpassed him. Therefore, he needs to go outside to temper himself to break his bottleneck.

  Yan Mo, thinking of Bing's ability, felt that there would be many places to use it, and that the force of the head of the picket could not be too weak a rank, so he agreed.

  Fortunately, Bing managed his picket well, and even if he left, his specially trained deputy and other members of the picket could manage tribal security and so on. At the beginning, Jiu Yuan Old Priest Qiu Shi chose Bing to replace the injured Yuan Zhan as the successor of the third generation of Chief, not just because of Bing's blood ability, but Bing himself. Zhang and Zheng would not agree to train him because of his inadequate abilities.

  In other words, this time out, not only Bing, but also many warriors and even warriors and chieftains wanted to come out with them but were beaten back by Yuan Zhan. Only Bing, beaten and still with a bruised face, ignored Yuan Zhan's rejection and applied to follow him again.

  Yuan Zhan also went to the picket group to "inspect" it for two days. After returning, he did not insist on refusing Bing to follow him.

  Yan Mo was absorbed and could see a figure standing at the entrance of the cave waving a hand not far away.

  Da-da quickened his pace.

  It was Ding Ning who stood at the entrance of the cave to greet them.

  Yan Mo was surprised to catch up with Yuan Zhan and Bing. "This cave is not very big. How did you see it in the sky?"

  Bing pointed to his eyes. "I'm not as good as the other leaders, but my blood ability has risen to 2nd rank."

  Yan Mo lamented, "I am looking forward to your future development. I think your ability will develop and you will probably have the same ability as the Old Priest Qiu Shi in the future. Wait for me to discuss your abilities carefully with you these two days, and then see how to do targeted exercises to improve your ability.”

  Bing held his right fist and put it on his chest to salute him. Yuan Zhan threw him in the hole and pats Da-da to let him rush in.

  Da-da, shaking his hair, crossed Yuan Zhan and ran into the cave with Yan Mo on his back.

  Ding Fei has set fire in the cave. Before he came out, the blood ability has risen to the 2nd rank. Although he and his twin brothers can't perform as well as Wu Chen and Ye Xing in their respective abilities, they also can't fight each other alone because when they touch each other their abilities sync and multiply in strength.

  Ding Fei and his brother, he needed tools to make a flame. For example, it takes a lot of flint to burst out a spark, but he can blow up a big spark with a single stroke, but the spark cannot last. If he rubbed two pieces of wood against each other, he could set both pieces of wood on fire just by rubbing them together. [1] I think I will call this ability Fire Channeling Starter well the author didn't specify.

  Ding Fei was depressed at first and even felt that his blood was not as strong as his brother's, but when he entered the 2nd rank, he found that he could make a big fire with only a little something to burn. And his fire was bigger than his brother's, which made him very excited.

  "Where did these firewood come from?" Yan Mo came down from Da-da.

  Ding Fei looked up. "There's one pile in this cave, probably left here by the people who stayed here."

  Yan Mo did not sit down and dusted the snow while looking inside the cave. "This cave looks very big. Did you go inside and see it?"

  "No, it's very deep inside. I didn’t go in further, but I heard the sound of running water. Would you like to go in and have a look?”

  Yuan Zhan, who came in with Bing and Ding Ning, said, "No, we'll rest here for one night. If the snow stops tomorrow, we'll keep on moving. If the snow doesn't stop, let's talk about it."

  "Hey, the snow will not stop tomorrow, and it will last five or six days." Jiu Feng came out of Yan Mo's arms.

  Yan Mo told Yuan Zhan about Jiu Feng's prediction.

  "Bing, you'll come with me later. Ding Ning Ding Fei, Da-da, you stay here and protect Mo."

  "Wait, let's go in together. If we want to stay here for five or six days, the entrance of the cave is still not good place to camp. It's too cold. Let's go inside and find out if there is a drier and warmer place.

  Yuan Zhan pressed the old man's stern shoulder and asked him, "Are you tired?"

  Yan Mo laughed and pushed him aside. "Fortunately, although my body is getting older, my mental strength seems to be stronger than before. Although I am a little tired after flying all day, I still can walk."

  Yuan Zhan grabbed his hand. "Your hands are frozen stiff. You weren't so afraid of the cold before."

  "The old man body is cold."

  Da-da wanted to continue to shake hands with Yan Mo and put Yan Mo on his back. "I'm walking and getting warmer. When I can’t handle it and feel tired I will tell you about it."

  Yuan Zhan did not let go of his hand, so he held it in his heart.

  Ding Ning Ding Fei got two torches. One was given to Yuan Zhan. Yuan Zhan didn't want one. Two brothers gave Bing one of them. Six of them, plus one bird, with the exception of Ding's brothers and Bing, more than half of them can see in the dark.

  Da-da came to the forefront. Bing took the torch to the second place. He wanted to exercise his eyes in the heart to see in the dark.

  Yuan Zhan and Yan Mo were in the middle. The Young Master Jiu Feng flew over Da-da's head to check the way.

  Ding Ning and Ding Fei share a torch at the end.

  From the outside, the cave is not big enough to allow only three people to come in side by side, but when they enter the inside, they will find that its internal space is not small, and there are underground rivers in the cave, where is the sound of running water.

  Yan Mo pinched Yuan Zhan's finger.

  Yuan Zhan turned to look at him.

  "I thought you'd drive the Dwarfs out in winter." Yan Mo lowers his voice.

  Yuan Zhan sneered, "I don't want them to freeze to death on the way."

  "They agreed to build the dwarf city that far."

  "They would like to go farther than the ruins we gave them, and they would rather stay away from us."

  "If the Dwarfs knew that we were not going to let them build cities near the Duo Fei tribe in the first place, they probably would not have the idea of taking advantage of us." Yan Mo laughed low.

  "They are also afraid that we will really let them build their cities in the Duo Fei tribe, so that they will become a barrier to the Duo Fei tribe and to us in the future. They are even more afraid that we will let them take the first blunt of war. So when you say either stay away from us or share the heritage with us, they can't wait to choose the first one.”

  "I don't know what people will think when Tianqiancheng-Heaven City finds a dwarf city across the hill next year?"

  Yuan Zhan, "Granma Mountain is still a long way from Fushan Mountain, and we also advise dwarfs to hide and act without drawing attention. I don't think Tianqiancheng-Heaven City will soon find itself with a less pleasant neighbor. It's not easy for Tianqiancheng-Heaven City people to kill them as long as the Dwarfs cover the fortress the way you painted.

  "Yes, their main city will probably be underground, so that even if the enemy destroys the ground fortress, it will not have a great impact on them. And later, The Dwarfs will make papers and carry out trade between cities. It will be even more difficult for the Tianqiancheng-Heaven City to attack them.”

  "I hope they can also toss out the wood." Yuan Zhan looked ahead and said, "There are dwarfs between us and Tianqiancheng-Heaven City, which is much more useful than the Duo Fei tribe. First, dwarfs will use our power to threaten the Tianqiancheng-Heaven City, and when dwarfs become stronger, Tianqiancheng-Heaven City will also be led by the dwarfs.”

  "Likewise, there is a possibility that Tianqiancheng-Heaven City and dwarfs can unite against us." Yan Mo reminded him.

  "Will we give them a chance to unite?"

  Two insidious guys with a cunning faces looked at each other and smiled.

  "Ah-!" A roar came from Da-da, who was exploring the road ahead.

  Yan Mo looked up.

  Yuan Zhan, "What? What did Da-da find?

  Yan Mo, "Da-da said there was no road ahead, only a large underground lake."

  Bing also stopped in front, looked back and raised his hand to make a pause posture behind him. "There's only a very narrow stone bridge ahead, Mo Da-Ren, I'll carry you over."

  "No need of you." Yuan Zhan really wanted to kick the fellow in front of him into the dark, but he had a good ability and was enough loyalty to Mo, so he had no chance to kill him for any reason.”

  Da-da's roar was heard again, along with Jiu Feng's cheerful cry.

  Yan Mo takes a picture of Yuan Zhan. "Stop fussing, Da-da seems to have found something. Let's hurry up."
