Sa Lei held the torch in one hand, and supported Qin Fei who had already been dressed into a ball with the other. Although it was the second day of the polar night moon, the temperature was significantly lower than the previous few days. A heavy snowfall a few hours ago made walking a short distance difficult. Even with the support of Sa Lei, Qin Fei still felt that he seemed to waste all his strength on the way back and forth.
Since the beginning of winter, nearly a hundred pregnant women have surged in the tribe, and even Daima of the Baierke family has successfully conceived a baby. In this wild continent, all the tribes regard the breeding of the next generation as the top priority. As we all know, newborns are very fragile, and the harsh external environment can easily lead to their death. If the number of cubs born in a tribe is rare and the death rate is high, then the tribe will definitely feel panic. Because this will indicate that their tribe will gradually decline. On the contrary, if a tribe breeds a lot of cubs, and this tribe happens to have powerful priests, they will ensure the survival of these cubs. Then it means that the tribe will be strong and prosperous. In the past, this was something that people yearned for but was as far away as a myth, but now this myth happened in their tribe, so this is definitely a great event worthy of celebration by the whole tribe.
Sa Lei really couldn't see Qin Fei's swaying left and right, so he picked him up, and at the same time accelerated the pace of walking home.
The number of pregnant women in the tribe surged, and Sare was very excited at first, but in the following days, seeing Qin Fei getting more and more busy, it was difficult for Sare to be happy. Although Qin Fei had already imparted a lot of knowledge to Priest Luma, and personally guided several priests and a group of selected priest candidates, the time was too short after all, and it was difficult for them to be alone. The first three months of pregnancy are very important, and Qin Fei dare not be careless. Strive to make every pregnant woman give birth safely, so one can imagine how busy he is.
Qin Fei lost the strength to struggle a long time ago. If he didn't feel that he was like a ball and it was inconvenient for Sa Lei to hold him, he would have taken the initiative to let Sa Lei hug him. The two of them braved the north wind and the falling snow, and before they reached the door of the house, they heard the ringing of the bell.
Qin Fei was taken aback for a moment, the clock was only hung on the tower three days ago as an early warning. Because in this kind of weather, no matter how powerful the whistle or horn is, there is no way for the clansmen hiding in the room to hear clearly. Since there were so many iron ore mines, Qin Fei simply sketched out a clock pattern, and asked Lunfa to lead a cast of a five and a half meter small clock, which was hung on the tower. Once you encounter a crisis or need an early warning, you can pull the rope and ring the alarm bell.
Judging from the direction from which the bell sounded, it was the direction of the tribal moat.
As soon as the alarm bell sounded, all the residences started to move, and after a while, many well-dressed males walked out with weapons and torches in their hands.
Sa Lei wanted Qin Fei to go back first, so he took people over to have a look. Qin Fei knew that the alarm bell would not ring easily, there must be a big problem, so why would she let Sa Lei and the others take risks while hiding in the room by herself. Sa Lei tried to put Qin Fei down several times and asked him to go back to the house to wait, but Qin Fei just held on to Sa Lei's clothes and would not let go.
Although this is the territory of the great beast, some man-made dangers are not ruled out. Especially those cannibals who plunder other tribes in winter will cause a lot of casualties once they appear. The former tribal alliance was very lucky to live in that area for two years. Even though it suffered many sneak attacks from the Vashakhs, it was still somewhat better than the cruel cannibals.
Qin Fei once heard about the cannibals from the elders of other tribes. They are already savage and indistinguishable from jungle beasts. Humans of ordinary races are no different from food in their eyes. Compared with hunting those large beasts, they prefer to catch humans for food. Even the females, after they finish their sex, can't escape the fate of becoming a meal in their stomachs. Qin Fei was terrified when he heard that, even the Vashakh beast did not bring such a shock to Qin Fei. And this time when the bell rang suddenly, Qin Fei had an intuition that it had something to do with those barbaric cannibals.
"Wow..." With a terrifying beast roar, the great beast flapped its huge wings and stopped not far away. It unintentionally set off a snow wave that almost buried Qin Fei and Sa Lei who were closest to it. Although Qin Fei covered her tightly, she was still caught by Xue Xue. The great beast gave a low cry full of apology, and then quickly swept away the snow around them.
The torch that Sare was holding had already been extinguished by the snow raised by the great beast. As soon as the big beast swept away the snow, Sa Lei hurriedly put Qin Fei on the ground and patted the snow sticking to him. Qin Fei also helped Sa Lei remove the snow from his body. Suddenly, Qin Fei and Sa Lei felt a strong force pushing towards the body of the great beast, they turned their heads in surprise, the huge head of the great beast was bending over them. At the same time, the wings of the great beast leaned down on one side; the two of them were pushed onto the wings by the force. Then the wings of the great beast were raised and released, and the two of them landed on the back of the great beast as if they were on a slide.
Before all the males understood what had happened, the great beast had stretched its wings and flew up at low altitude.
Qin Fei never knew that one day she would have the opportunity to experience high-altitude flying, and she was so frightened that she almost screamed. However, the big beast obviously flew low and steady to take care of the two of them, and there were small bulges at the base of its wings. Although this small bulge is nothing, it has played a very high blocking role for Qin Fei and Sa Lei. Make sure the two don't slide off the body while it's flying.
Even if the great beast flies slowly, it is not comparable to human running. It took only a minute for it to stop on the other side of the moat, corresponding to the nearest tower. The guard male on the tower had already seen the huge figure of the great beast. With the faint moonlight, I also saw the two people sitting on the big beast. The male had excellent eyesight, and he could see Sa Lei and Qin Fei clearly immediately. In fact, even if he couldn't see clearly, he could still guess it. Apart from Sa Lei and Qin Fei, no one would dare to ride the divine beast.
"Boss, just now we saw a lot of suspicious black spots approaching on the snow in the direction of the plain." A male stood on the tower and shouted in the direction of Qin Fei and Sa Lei.
"Understood, let's go and have a look..." Before Sa Lei could reply, Qin Fei had already patted the back of the great beast, signaling it to carry the two of them over to have a look.
The big mythical beast didn't fly up this time, but strolled towards the plain where the males said. Although the moonlight was not bright, the whiteness of the snow field, with some different colors, looked very clear. As the great beast approached, Qin Fei and Sa Lei could already see some black figures curled up on the snow—people.
The big mythical beast let out a low growl, and the few figures who were closest to it, curled up in one place, were so frightened that they wanted to bury themselves in the snowdrift.

Qin Fei frowned. These people didn't seem to intend to attack the tribal camp, because he found that only a few people still held weapons in their hands, and most of them were completely curled up. Taking advantage of the snow and moonlight, Qin Fei felt that their clothes seemed to be in a mess.
"Who are you? Why did you come here?" Qin Fei patted the giant beast beneath her, signaling it not to growl intimidatingly.
The black shadows curled up on the snow were frightened by the giant beast, but they all looked up in surprise when they heard Qin Fei's voice.
Qin Fei and Sa Lei stood side by side on the back of the great beast, and the hazy moonlight shone on them. Let a group of people who have nowhere to go immediately mistakenly believe that they are gods.
"Save, save us, save us..." A male who was still curled up nearby suddenly crawled out of the crowd, trembling, crying and prostrating non-stop.
After looking at each other, Sa Lei and Qin Fei asked, "Which tribe do you belong to?"
Without waiting for the male to answer, someone in the huddled group suddenly shouted, "Chief Sare, are you the Patriarch Sare? We are all members of the tribe and the tribal alliance..."
Sare has participated in the trading month many times, and many other alliance members have seen him. Moreover, at the critical moment when he was besieged and killed by the Vashakh people in the tribal alliance trading month this year, he not only defeated the mighty Gu Zha, but also beheaded two Vashakh beasts in a row. In the eyes of many males, Sare is already a god of war. So as soon as Sare spoke, the male who had seen him recognized him immediately.
Sare squinted his eyes and looked at the male. The male crawled towards him, but he didn't dare to get too close. "Patriarch Sare... I am Deng Erpo of the Huga tribe. In the most recent trading month, I took you to find those fake Vashakhs..."
"Dulpo..." Sare thought for a while, then remembered this male. It seems that he is still a leader of the Huga tribe, "You... why did you come here suddenly?"
Deng Erpo shook his body, "Since, since you moved away with several tribes, a lot of things have happened, and we really have no choice but to think of going to your... tribal alliance, the alliance is over..."
Sa Lei still wanted to ask more questions, but was pulled by Qin Fei, "If you keep asking this question, they will probably freeze even more. Let's take them back first."
Qin Fei glanced at the dozens of black shadows on the ground, it seemed that they had indeed suffered a lot.
Sa Lei nodded, and Qin Fei shouted to the people on the snow, "Let's go back first and ask someone to pick you up. If you can walk, try to come to the riverside, and if you can't walk, wait here. We will go back as soon as possible." hurry back."
Throwing down these words, Qin Fei patted the back of the great beast, and the great beast immediately turned around and walked back to the moat. From a distance, Qin Fei could see many torches gathering towards the river. The moat has been frozen for a long time, so there is no need to put a drawbridge. The males who rushed to the river were greeted by Sare to follow him to save people.
Qin Fei patted the back of the great beast, "Can't you help me out?"
The big beast's head swayed and let out a low moan of dissatisfaction. Qin Fei patted its back again, "Got it, got it, cheapskate."
Qin Fei waited in the cold wind for a while, and Sare and the others came back with their people. The males were all dressed thickly, and some males had already put their own animal skin coats on the people who were brought back. The great beast didn't fly up, and walked slowly in front of Sare and the others with Qin Fei on its back. After sending Qin Fei to the door of the house, the great beast flew up again and burrowed back into its cave.
