The distance is more than twenty meters, and there is a slightly hard sand in the middle that is not much wider than the sole of the foot.
Yan Mo did not study this strange terrain, he only thought that the almost straight line of hard sand was strange, it was as if nature had built a wall between two quicksand pools, and that narrow wall could The fact that it still stands up to now may also be related to the squeeze of quicksand on both sides.
Leaving aside this special terrain, the biggest headache for Yan Mo is the distance between him and Bing.
Fortunately, people in the Yuanji tribe used to take a bundle of straw ropes with them when they traveled far away, together with detachable leather ropes. Everyone gathered together and finally got together two straw ropes of more than 20 meters.
Yan Mo tied a loose buckle on each end of the two straw ropes. Straw ropes are easy to break, let alone temporarily tied together. For this, he needs to use two straw ropes together, but it is too late to knead the two straw ropes into one strand.
"Who is the strongest? The most accurate thrower?"
Lie replied: "The strongest is the mountain, the most accurate throw is the ice, and the absence of ice is the eagle."
Yan Mo looked at Yuan Zhan, it turns out that you are not very good.
Yuan Zhan actually understood the mocking look in the little slave's eyes, thinking that you will know how powerful I am in the future.
"Can Lord Diao throw these two bundles of straw ropes to Lord Bing?"
Diao bent down and picked up the straw rope and weighed it. After looking at the distance, he hesitated and said, "It's a bit light, but you can try it."
"Wait." Yan Mo stretched out his hand and asked Diao to give him the straw rope, and asked Shan for two pieces of bacon, fastened it to the loose buckle on the end of the rope, pulled it tight, and handed it to Diao, "You can see the weight. no?"
As soon as the eagle got it, he grinned, "You are so smart! This is a great idea!"
Yuan Zhan rubbed the head of the little slave, Yan Mo's face was black.
When the rescue operation started, Yan Mo didn't know whether it would be successful, so he had to be a dead horse as a living horse doctor.
Yan Mo asked the loudest man to shout to Bing and the two of them: "Bing, you come one by one, your situation is the most critical, I will save you first, Yangwei, you wait for now. Bing, listen, grab two straw ropes , If you are afraid of losing your hand, take off the piece of meat in the front circle, wrap the rope around your wrist, and then combine the two bundles of straw rope together, and grasp it firmly with both hands."
Both Bing and Yangwei listened carefully.
"We will grab the rope here, but we can't pull you out with all our strength, because the quicksand will compete with us for you. Not only will we not be able to pull you out, but the quicksand will even strangle you to death, so you can only rely on yourself. You need to grab the two merged grass ropes and climb out bit by bit. Don’t worry. After you come out a little bit, you should lie as far forward as possible, let yourself lie on the sand, and then pull the rope out. Climb forward, during which you can use the wooden spear to insert into the ground to lend yourself strength. After your body is fully out, try to climb up and stand on the narrow path with the wooden spear, and then walk over by yourself, can you Can you do it?"
Bing rolled his eyes, "Don't treat me like a waste, just throw the rope over here. With the rope, I can climb out even if I crawl along the road!"
Everyone is very happy to see the ice still alive.
Throwing two bundles of straw ropes to his side together, Ice inserted the wooden spear into the ground of the narrow passage, grasped it with one hand to fix himself, and loosened the other hand a little bit, because the fingers of this hand became swollen due to the long-term grip on the soil. Stiff, it took a little effort, and finally put the loops of the two bundles of straw ropes on the wrists. The two pieces of meat were not wasted, and he ate them all to replenish his strength. , Grasp it.
"Now!" Yan Mo told the soldiers again and again, telling them not to use force, just be a good wooden stake, grab the rope, and let Bing climb out by itself.
"Ice, it's done!"
Bing grabbed the double-strand straw rope and crawled out little by little. When most of his body lay on the safe narrow passage, he thrust the wooden spear into the narrow passage with all his strength, and then pulled out a spear first by using that point to fix it. Slowly stepped on the narrow path, then slowly stood up holding the wooden spear, and finally got out of the quicksand completely and started to walk slowly by himself.
Everyone looked at Bing nervously, the sheep tail raised its head, envious.
Soon, Bing grabbed the wooden spear and straw rope, walked out of the quicksand steadily, and stepped on the solid sandy ground.
"Aww! That's great! It's a success!" Shouted with great joy!
The stable hunter also showed a smiling face. Although it took a lot of time, this was the first time that most of the people fell into the quicksand and came out alive.
"It's the sheep's tail's turn next." Yan Mo realized that after he finished speaking, everyone was silent for a while.
He clicked his tongue disdainfully, "That guy!" Although he looked disdainful, he didn't intend to stop the boy from saving others.
Probably everyone has seen or heard the performance of Yangwei before.
Yan Mo himself didn't want to save Yangwei, he felt that this guy could be a hindrance, if he was rescued this time, he didn't know how he would drag them down in the future.
but!
"Yangwei's situation is different from Master Bing's. Now he is lying on the narrow road, basically unaffected by the quicksand, but he is too timid. If the rope is thrown to him, he may not be able to climb out, but his legs can't walk on their own. , we don’t have that much time to wait for him to crawl slowly, so we can take the initiative to drag him here this time.” Yan Mo picked up the straw rope thrown by the ice and enlarged the front end buckle, which was big enough to fit a person .
"Throw the rope to him and let him put these two snares on himself. This will not only prevent him from dropping his hand in the middle, but it will be easier for us to pull up. But there is one problem, he only has a leather skirt on him, oh, In this case, if we drag him all the way like this, he will definitely be seriously injured due to friction."
"Then what should I do?" Staring at the two big slip-on holsters, his eyes sparkling, he now feels that Zhan's little slaves are so smart, they used to have straw ropes, but never thought they could be used like this To save lives, the most important thing is this live button!
If the loop is bigger, if he swings the rope with loops like this, and uses that loop to trap the beast, can he drag the prey back in one go
Whoa whoa whoa! It seems that this is not difficult, he must try it!
"There are two ways. One is to throw him this kind of animal fur coat that can be covered from head to toe, let him put it on, and then throw the rope to him, and drag him over. The other is to divide the rope on the left and right. Tie the two sides to the fur coat, and then throw the coat to the sheep’s tail, let the sheep’s tail slowly climb onto the coat of animal skin, hold both sides of the coat with open hands, lie down on the coat of animal skin, and pull the rope from this side , it can be dragged along with the animal skin clothes and people.”
In the end, everyone and Yangwei himself chose the first method.
Yangwei grabbed the rope, and according to Yan Mo's instructions, put one snare under his buttocks and one under his armpits, then put the two straw ropes together and held them with his hands.
Yan Mo commanded, everyone worked together, and quickly dragged the sheep's tail to the front.
Unfortunately, when dragging the sheep's tail in animal fur, one straw rope couldn't bear the strength and broke, but fortunately, the other grass rope persisted to the last meter, and finally everyone hugged each other's waist , except for Lie, who had a broken hand and was not healed, hugged each other, Shan stood at the front, stretched out his body, and stretched out his hand to pull the sheep's tail over.
Yangwei is safe, but it doesn't mean his affairs are over.
Bing walked over, stripped off the animal skin coat from the sheep's tail and threw it to Yan Mo, lifted the sheep's tail and took him aside, punched and kicked him on the spot.
Yangwei hugged his head and tightened his body, crying and letting his master kick and beat him.
No one tried to dissuade Bing, and everyone seemed to think that Yangwei should be beaten.
It's pathetic, but... Well done. Yan Mo's sympathy died out when his son died, and he didn't care whether Yangwei would be beaten to death, even if he had just rescued him twice. He thought that Bing, who was almost killed by his slave, would kill the sheep's tail and eat his meat, but it turned out that the other party only wanted to beat the murderer up.
I don't know if seeing people being beaten will also increase the scum value? Yan Mo saw that Bing was almost beaten, and was about to offer a few words of persuasion hypocritically, when he saw his family's vicious-looking hairy master walking in front of him.
What do you want to do? Yan Mo's intuition was not good, and he was immediately alert.
Yuan Zhan told him with his eyes: Settle the score! Then he reached out and grabbed the boy by the neck and lifted him up.
"Uh! Ugh! Ah... Zhan? Big... man?" Yan Mo left his feet off the ground, his face was bloodshot again from being strangled, and he desperately grabbed the hand with both hands, trying to let him loosen his restraint.
"Zhan!" Liehezhi the young man, "He is also kind, and he is still a child, forget it."
Yuan Zhan threw Yan Mo to the ground, stepped on his stomach, and cursed: "What kind of a fart! He almost killed everyone!"
Hold! I just saved your people, not only are you not grateful, but you also treat me like this? What do you mean forget it? Dare I save people in vain? Yan Mo can't wait to hand out a transformation guide to these primitive people!
How dare you treat your savior like this? penalty! All must be punished! Add scum points, all plus 10,000 points! The bastard Yuanzhan added 10 million per person!
Kusakachi looked anxiously at his master, and because of her gaze, he also said, "Zhan, it turns out that all of us are fine. In the end, I have to thank your little slave. If it weren't for him, my grass The town is gone."
Kusamachi walked up to Yuan Zhan, knelt down, but didn't dare to intercede, her status was not worthy.
"But my backpack is gone, and all the food and salt in it are gone." Meng muttered to the side. He didn't want to fight and punish the little slave, but just because of the backpack that he hadn't carried for a long time. He could hunt again when the meat was gone, but it was basically impossible to make another backpack for that backpack.
Yuan Zhan picked up Yan Mo's backpack with a wooden spear and threw it to Meng, "Here you are."
He took the backpack fiercely and was overjoyed.
Lie slapped his brother on the head, snatched the backpack and threw it to Yuan Zhan, "No, I have another one here, you keep this for yourself."
"Brother!" Shouted fiercely.
Lie kicked the second brother to the side, jumped in anger, and simply ran over to poke Zhan's little slave to vent his anger.
Is Yan Mo so easy to be poked at? While no one was paying attention, he quickly pricked Meng's wrist with a gold needle. He didn't dare to attack Yuan Zhan just now. First, everyone was watching them at the time, and it was difficult to attack under the eyes of everyone. In addition, he had already attacked Yuan Zhan once, and if he did it again, he was afraid of being noticed by Yuan Zhan.
As soon as the fierce fingers touched the little slave's face, he stopped suddenly, and then yelled in horror: "Ah! My hand! I can't feel my hand, and I can't move it! Brother! You smashed my hand!"
No one paid any attention to him.
Meng shook his hands desperately, and even put them in his mouth to bite, but no matter how much he said that he didn't feel his hands, no one would believe it. Weeping violently, squatting on the ground holding his right wrist and wailing.
Yuan Zhan glanced over the little slave, with deep doubts in his eyes.
He remembered very clearly that at that time he would let the little slave slip down because he felt a sudden weakness in his arm, but it recovered within a while, and before that, he could clearly feel the dimples on both sides of his shoulders and neck. Each was pricked by something, as if being pricked by a thorn from a thorn ball tree in the desert.
The little slave is weird, keep an eye on it!
Bing also finished tidying up the sheep's tail, and let out a bad breath for a while.
Everyone gathers together again to pack up and check their luggage.
Yan Mo got up from the ground, and was about to put on the severely worn animal skin coat that was pierced by the sheep's tail, when Cao Ding stopped him suddenly, and took off his own animal skin coat for him in front of him, and put the worn animal skin coat on. piece on the upper body.
"Xiao Mo, thank you for saving me, you are a good person." Cao Ding said in a low voice, before Yan Mo could answer, he limped back to his master.
Yan Mo felt a little uncomfortable. He didn't intend to save Cao Ding, but was forced to do so. But... It's okay, it's better to be appreciated than to be hated, Yan Mo pouted, and put on Kusading's animal skin coat unceremoniously.
After all, it was a dress made by a woman, and it seemed to be more comfortable than the one he made by himself.
Finally, everyone counted what was left.
Except for the clothes on his body and the wooden spear in his hand, there was basically no loss. Other things were more or less lost, and the biggest losses were Yuanzhan and Bing.
Currently, there are four backpacks in the entire team, but only three packs contain bacon.
Fortunately, the loss of salt was not much. Except for the backpack that was thrown out by Yuan Zhan and the package that fell into the quicksand, the salt of the others was still there.
As for the wooden ladle, only the ice ones were lost.
Hunter's backpack is still there, which means that the flint and steel is not lost.
Looking at it this way, the overall loss is not that big. With all the members saving their lives, everyone feels that this loss is not a loss at all, but a pity for the backpack that was thrown out.
Because after this life-threatening run, the sturdiness and practicality of several backpacks have withstood the test, greatly proving their existence value.
Several soldiers looked at the four backpacks as if they were looking at babies.
Both Shan and Diao wanted to share their meat with Yuan Zhan, but Yuan Zhan refused.
"We're already a certain distance away from the tribe, and we're almost entering the hunting range of third-level fighters. It's not safe here. We need to quickly decide on a direction, and then find a safe place to spend the night." Hunter said with a heavy expression.
"Then which direction should we go? If we go any further, we will enter the desert." Meng found that his hand had regained consciousness and was no longer fussing, but he still looked at his right hand from time to time.
Lie didn't make a decision immediately, but looked at the missing tooth.
Missing Teeth slapped his head and began to tell everyone what he had heard before about the end of the continent.
According to Missing Tooth's description, he once met a warrior who claimed to be from the Gaoshan tribe in a rocky beach trade. That person seemed to have traveled a long distance, and came across this rocky beach trade by chance.
"I think that person is at least a fourth-level fighter, otherwise he would not have passed through the grassland and black forest to the rocky beach." Missing Tooth said.
"He passed through the dark forest?" Lie was surprised.
Missing Teeth nodded, "That's what he said."
Yan Mo found that once the missing teeth were confirmed, all the soldiers present showed an expression of awe, which was a kind of respect and fear naturally generated for the strong, just like when they faced the chief of their own tribe.
How strong is the fourth-level fighter
Yan Mo still can't understand this point, until he set foot deep in the grassland and passed through the black forest, he deeply felt how powerful a fourth-level fighter can survive through the grassland and the black forest.
"Then why did he mention the end of the continent to you?" Bing asked.
Missing Teeth recalled: "He was sitting not far from me to rest at the time. I felt that he was very powerful, so I went over and asked him where he came from and which tribe he was from."
"He told me that he is a Gaoshan tribe who is far away from here, and he left the tribe because he was looking for something very important to his tribe." Missing Tooth said here, and suddenly sighed, "He also said that the original man who walked with him There are five clansmen in total, but he is the only one left here."
"What is he looking for?" Bing asked again.
Bing's curiosity seems to be much heavier than others, and he can't hold back his words, and wants to show his sense of existence all the time. This kind of personality made Yan Mo feel a little familiar.
Someone touches the nose. When he was in middle school, he seemed to have this kind of virtue? He always wanted to stand out and show off his abilities, and felt that the middle school couldn't hold him. He wanted to get involved in any school activities, and he wanted to win a prize in any competition. Willing to admit, I also like to be praised and praised by others, and I don’t know it when I make enemies everywhere. It wasn’t until I was hit one after another, and I didn’t learn how important it is to keep a low profile until I really suffered a big loss.
But the country is easy to change, and the nature is hard to change. Even if it can be suppressed for a period of time, the nature will still pop up occasionally, which caused him to be hated and hated by many people, whether he was studying or working.
Maybe there is nothing wrong with such a personality, at most, life is a little more difficult than others, and when I become more mature in the future, I will naturally settle down slowly and finally find my own rhythm.
But he is a person who can't bear the slightest grievance. Based on the vengeful nature of you being bad to me and me being even worse to you, he has done some immoral things to those who hate him and are not good for him, which is to increase his scum value.
He didn't know if Bing was the same kind of person, but it was enough for him to dislike and stay away from this person. Bad people don't like people who are similar to themselves, let alone believe them, because they know exactly who they are. Even if he saved Bing, there are many stories about farmers and snakes in this world.
The gloomy Yan Mo thought blankly.
"I don't know." Missing Tooth shook his head, "He didn't go into details, but he occasionally said that he might have to go to the end of the continent to find what he was looking for."
"Where is the end of the continent?" Meng Qiang asked in front of the ice.
Missing teeth scratched his head, "I don't know, maybe the Gaoshan people know?"
You thought you really knew some valuable news, but it turned out to be nothing
Yan Mo thought the news was unimportant, but Lie attached great importance to it. He asked in detail: "Where did that Gaoshan tribe go? Did you see him leave the rocky beach?"
"I think he went to the worshipers later, and he seemed to have something to ask them, and then he left with the worshipers... Wait a minute!" The toothless wooden spear hit the ground and suddenly shouted: "I want to Get up, he can ride a horse! He can ride a horse just like those worshipers! The worshipers gave him a horse, and he rode on it as soon as he turned over, and the horse didn't throw him off!"
"Could it be that the sun-worshiping people are related to the Gaoshan people?" The thick tenor voice belonging to Dashan sounded.
"It's very possible." Lie pondered, "The priest of the previous generation once said that the men in the tribe can't just stay with the women in the tribe, they have to exchange with other tribes, otherwise the tribe will gradually decline. My lord priest I didn’t say why, but the combination of our three tribes is indeed much stronger than before. Maybe the Bairi tribe and the Gaoshan tribe plan to combine into a new tribe like us?”
Yan Mo thought to himself, it seems that the priests here have noticed the dangers of inbreeding, maybe they can't understand why this happened, but it is enough to know the dangers.
Did the primitive society develop little by little? Because of various threats to survival, some tribes, under the impetus of some wiser priests, gradually contacted the outside crowd, and then developed to merge and merge, and then formed new tribes. In this way, tribes appeared. Towns arose, and finally nations arose.
"The sun worshipers live on the prairie to the east." Yuan Zhan said suddenly.
Lie obviously thought of this question too, he turned his head to look at Yan Mo, and asked: "Xiao Mo, do you know where the end of the continent is? A sea of salt?"
Who knows? Go on, as long as you don't die, you may reach the seaside one day. Of course Yan Mo wouldn't say that, he was thinking of words, he was hit in the front, he had to think about how to say it to really establish prestige in the hearts of these primitive people.
Lie didn't give him time to think, and suddenly changed his face: "I order you, now, immediately, clearly tell me the direction and the number of days to go, otherwise...!"
Yuan Zhan's hand quickly wrapped around his neck.
again? ! Yan Mo felt a chill in his heart.
In vain, he thought that he had a little affection with his stupid master. Although he was very angry when the other party strangled his neck just now, he could also feel that Yuan Zhan would kill him, but it was just to block him first. Shut up the others, that guy didn't pinch him and stomp him hard at all.
But now, after only a hint, this guy is already ready to kill him. Look at this swift and swift action, without even the slightest hesitation!
But why did these people suddenly change their faces? Aren't they all fine just now? Did he say something wrong? No, he hasn't had time to say anything yet!
