Doomsday Totem

Chapter 428 Life
For the next period of time, Tie Slag and Zhao Wenke lived a leisurely life in the Qin family's mansion, exercising for a while every day, then drinking tea, chatting about the current world situation, and occasionally falling into a daze.

In the blink of an eye, more than ten days have passed...

Qin Baoshan, who went to Yanyang Town to purchase supplies, is back.As soon as the fire mule was tied up to pull the cart, he called the hunters in the village and selected fifteen experienced young men to escort Tie Slag and Zhao Wenke to the depths of the distant mountains, and then stationed there to meet them .

In order to avoid the blue eyeliner, both Tie Slag and Zhao Wenke chose to cover their faces.For this reason, Qin Baoshan made some explanations.

"These two adults are the guards in front of the fire of the ancient temple. They have been ordered by the Great Prophet to go to the distant mountains to handle errands. You must cooperate with them."

"Wow! Huoqian guards, I heard that they are all top experts." "It's the first time I've seen you." "Okay! We will cooperate with the two adults and fulfill the orders of the Great Prophet." The young hunters They all responded.

The next morning, in the morning mist that filled the mountains, six ox carts loaded with supplies were led by hunters into the endless distant mountains.For this trip, Qin Baoshan gave them the only six flathorn cattle in the village.

Banjiao cattle, also known as Zen cattle, are extremely powerful and full of endurance. They are the best animal power in the Far East, but they are relatively expensive to raise. They are generally only used in special situations, such as long-distance treks or harsh environments.

In the mountains and forests, the team travels at a very slow speed, about 35 kilometers per day.Iron Slag sat on the bullock cart and lamented that if there was an aircraft, it would only take half a day to fly there.

Since the Battle of Glory, the World Parliament has passed a bill called "World Flight Regulations" and established a "Global Flight Center", announcing that all flights that are not under unified control are illegal, and firmly control the flight of aircraft. Use it as a privilege for the nobles of Silver City.

He originally wanted to ask Mu Yulinglan to borrow the aircraft, but considering that there are too many people staring at him, if he is a little careless and leaks his whereabouts, it will not only bring great troubles to Mu Yulinglan, but also make him suffer. If you fall into an unpredictable crisis, you may lose the opportunity to find a brilliant treasure from then on.In order to be safe, he can only choose this difficult and ancient way.

Half a month later, as the altitude gradually increased, the trees in the forest became more and more sparse, and the speed of the team increased a lot because of this. Now the team can walk [-] kilometers a day.On the way, I met a tin tiger and a mutant brown bear.As soon as they emerged, they were jointly killed by Tie Slag and Zhao Wenke, and they became braised pork in the pot.

Zhao Wenke is wearing the second-generation psychic power armor, and is a seventh-level psychic with extraordinary combat power. Since Tie Slag has realized the perception of source power, his combat power has doubled. Beast, no pressure at all.

Another half month later, the team traveled 6000 kilometers and completely left the range of the mountains and forests.Through the watch, you can see that the altitude here is about [-] meters. If you go further south, you will find no vegetation, jagged mountains and no birds.

Looking at the endless mountains, Tie Slag couldn't help recalling the scene of four years ago when he was alone, dragging Alice across the mountains of Phiklis.While staring, he exhaled heavily, tightened the coat on his body, buried his head and continued walking.After arriving here, in order to reduce the burden on the plate-horn cattle, everyone no longer takes the car, and in some places with steep slopes, they have to help push the cart.

As time went by and the altitude increased, the speed of the team gradually slowed down, from fifty per day at the beginning, to 45, 35, [-], [-]...

A month later, when the team was about 900 kilometers away from Qinjia Village, the daily speed was less than 7000 kilometers.The altitude here has exceeded [-] meters, and the temperature is even lower than minus [-] degrees. Looking around, there are only endless snowy mountains and mountains.

Seeing that the hunters were exhausted and the plate-horn cattle were also tired, Iron Slag asked them to camp in the lee of a nearby hillside, and then he and Zhao Wenke dragged a large sled full of food and oxygen equipment and continued to move forward. .

Although Zhao Wenke grew up in the temple, he received the most arduous training since he was a child. Like Iron Slag, he has a strong ability to survive in the wild.Because the altitude here is too high, the water cannot be boiled at all, and in order to save fuel, they often just melt the ice and snow and drink it directly.As for food, in order to reduce the burden, most of what they brought were compressed biscuits, with only a small amount of canned meat as a supplement.

The mountains are endless, the mountains are endless,

Thousands of weights, weights of thousands.

Thousands of mountains have passed, and thousands of mountains,

Thousands of mountains have passed by, and thousands of mountains have been returned.

The peaks and ridges are stacked, rising to the sky,

In the Immortal Mansion, race the Immortals.

In the words and sentences of ancient poets, all of them admire the majesty and vastness of the distant mountains.But at this moment, Tie Slag and Zhao Wenke didn't have any poetic charm. As long as they sat down, they would feel sleepy and want to fall asleep.The air here is very thin. Every once in a while, they have to sit down and inhale oxygen to restore their bodies.

In this way, the two of them walked forward with difficulty between the mountains and on top of the snow peaks...

They live a cycle of life every day, eating, drinking, sleeping, walking, monotonous but compact.As time passed, the dialogue between them became less and less, but the tacit understanding between them became deeper and deeper.They only need a look, or a gesture, and they can know what the other is thinking.Tie Slag gradually discovered that Zhao Wenke was actually the same kind of person as him and Lao Niu.Compared with words, they prefer to express their intentions with actions.

They are all reticent people, they can not say a word for several days without feeling unfamiliar, just like the old iron slag and the old cow, sitting at the door of the repair shop for a whole day.

Real friends, real brothers, don't need many words, just sit together and feel at ease.

One of them is a student of the holy flame guardian, and the other is a student of the ancient great prophet. They are destined to leave a lot of money in this vast world!
"Let's get to know each other again. I am Iron Slag Norses, the guardian of the holy wolf, and the Warsong Shaman of the Temple of Splendor."

One day two months later, when they turned over a big snow mountain and looked into the distance, Tie Slag suddenly stretched out his hand and said solemnly.

"I am Zhao Wenke from the Far East, the warrior monk of Zhanxiong, and the guard in front of the fire."

Zhao Wenke firmly held Tie Slag's hand and went through a long journey. It was not until this moment that they really knew each other.

In these two months, they have advanced [-] kilometers, and they are still [-] kilometers away from the location on the map.But when they got here, one-third of their supplies had been used up, and they had to find suitable food to ensure subsequent supplies.

It is said that there are some powerful ancient creatures inhabiting the distant mountains, but they have encountered nothing along the way. Those are just legends, and they seem to be just legends.

This situation continued until one afternoon.At that time, Tie Slag and Zhao Wenke were carrying a cable and dragging a sled around one snow peak and heading for another, when the sky suddenly darkened, and a large shadow passed over them.

"Chirp!"

Immediately afterwards, an extremely high-pitched cry came from above, as if passing through the endless void, it was directly transmitted into the mind.

Looking up, it was a big blue bird flying over their heads.The wings were hundreds of meters long, and under one flap, a gust of wind blew up on the hillside, and the snow rolled and flew.

"It's the roc, the ancient roc!" Zhao Wenke raised his head and shouted in surprise, "I didn't expect it to exist."

"I want to go up and have a look." As he said that, Iron Slag opened his membrane wings and soared into the sky with a "shua".

"Buzzing..." Looking at the huge flying bird, he flapped his wings with all his strength and flew upwards.However, no matter how he flew, the big bird was always far away in the sky.After flying to a height of more than 2000 meters, the membrane wings felt tingling, as if they were about to be torn apart by the rapid airflow, so he had to give up the big bird and dive down.

"The roc is a divine bird. It flies at an altitude of more than 2 meters. Your wormlike wings can't get up." A moment later, looking at the disappointed iron slag, Zhao Wenke said with a smile.

"It's a pity, otherwise it would be better to pull a feather down and have a look." Tie Slag said.

"Chirp!"

At this moment, the roc high in the sky uttered a high-pitched cry again, and then swooped down towards the mountains in front. The majestic momentum was like a meteorite hitting the mountains from outside the sky, and the two people on the hillside were stunned.

A few seconds later, the roc soared into the sky again and flew high into the sky.Taking a closer look, there was a creature covered with long brown hairs on its paws.

"Ancient mammoth!" Iron Slag couldn't help but shouted when he saw the creature clearly.

"That's right, it's a mammoth." Zhao Wenke picked up the binoculars on his chest and observed for a while, then said.

"Go ahead, there may be a herd of elephants." As he spoke, Tie Slag picked up the cable and called Zhao Wenke to set off.

Several hours later, the two climbed over five or six hills one after another, and finally saw a group of mammoths walking on the opposite hillside out of breath.It was evening now, and the setting sun shone on the snow-capped peaks, coating the whole world with a layer of golden sand.And these creatures from ancient times seem to be walking in the golden ocean, mysterious, simple, and beautiful...

"Follow them quickly." Iron Slag said slightly excitedly.

"What's wrong?" Zhao Wenke asked suspiciously.As far as he knew, the ancient mammoth was a symbol of the glorious lineage, and Iron Slag would definitely not hunt them, but he couldn't figure out what his specific intention was.

"If they encounter any trouble, we help them solve it, and they will send us to the destination." Iron Slag said with a grin.
