primitive survival evolution

Chapter 76 Icewind Dale

The cold wind is blowing, the bare trees are swaying in the wind, and everything in the world is dotted with goose feathers.

This snow was not heavy, but it fell for two days and two nights. Every winter, there will be a small goose feather snow here, announcing its arrival.

The cold winter wind is very sharp, and it hurts when it blows on the face.

People put on thick animal skins, the snow stopped, and people continued to build houses.

The soil also froze, so the mud bricks that people built their houses on became fired bricks.

Gradient elephants sleep or eat in the stables, and no longer participate in construction work.

Without beasts, people have to cut down trees and transport them by themselves. The work progress is extremely slow
"Mammoth."

At this moment, this animal seems to be the beast that the Jiang tribe is most eager to tame.

There are many tall trees on the mountain, and the cold wind can sometimes break in.

It was very warm inside the cave, and Mu and some old people liked to stay in it in winter.

But today is an important day.

She got up very early, walked out of the cave, came to the totem tree, and held a sacrifice in the severe cold.

This sacrifice seems very grand.

Sheep are the only livestock that produce milk and wool in the Jiang tribe. They are very precious, but today, under the totem tree, there is a roasted whole sheep.

Jade cong and jade wall are indispensable objects every time the tribe holds a major sacrifice.

But this time, between the jade cong and the jade bi, there were ten more shell bracelets.

Those are bracelets made of white shellfish.

The bracelets are very special, the number of shells in each bracelet is different.

This is a bracelet that represents the age of life. Their owners add a shell to it every year, but these bracelets no longer add shells from the previous year.

Ginger people. Whether it is the elderly who are afraid of the cold or the child who is breastfeeding.
Now, everyone is sitting around under this tall and straight totem tree, all bowing their heads silently. Despite the severe cold weather, they have not flinched in the slightest.

After Mu and a few old women prayed to the totem tree, Mu respectfully picked up the ten strings of shells.

Give the ten strings of shells to the ten men and women who stood up on the side of the totem tree.

Ten men and women each wore these ten strings of shell coin bracelets.

These ten men and women were all dressed in thick animal skins, their feet were tightly bound, and they carried hunting weapons such as large bows and spears on their backs.

"Don't worry, we will return safely." Li Yan understood at this moment that only the word "safety" can make the tribal people feel at ease during this trip.

"Yeah." Mu's eyes were a little wet, and he nodded slightly, "Icewind Dale is a long way away, and there are many beasts in it, you don't have to force it, just come back."

The long-winded discourse was interrupted by the repeated urging of the Lianshan people at the foot of the mountain.

This trip is of great significance, and it is not just to tame the mammoth. This time, the Jiang tribe sent all the elites. Li Yan and Tamar are the main combat forces of the team. The special clansman, the weapons and equipment they carry are also carefully selected. The strongest weapons of the tribe.

The cold wind was blowing, the snow was covered, and in Icewind Valley, the rolling snow-capped mountains tortured the team.

This is a team of over 50 people.

Three mammoths shielded themselves from the wind and snow in front of the team, one giraffe followed by another in the middle, two woolly rhinos and five gray and white dire wolves at the end, everyone drove the beasts.

Li Yan, who was in the middle of the team, had a snow-white direwolf beside him.

"It's too cold here in Icewind Valley, even velociraptors can't come in. Fortunately, you have long-necked camels." Li Yan is very satisfied with the long-necked camels under his seat. The ability is even better than that of the Velociraptor, but they are more timid. Moreover, this kind of beast does not need to be tamed. Like a horse, it can be driven by people very quickly.

The leader of the Kuikai clan drove the largest long-necked camel, and proudly replied: "Since our ancestors, our tribe has raised this kind of beast, so they don't need to be tamed by witchcraft."

"Patriarch Kui Kui, when I go back, I want to exchange ten long-necked camels with you, how about it?"

"Okay, I'll talk to you after I get back. We are now going to capture mammoths. Mammoths live in groups. It's not easy to tame a mammoth. Take a look over there first."

The head of Kui Kui suddenly pointed to a snow-white mountain on the left front.

There were more than a dozen black figures looming in the white snow-capped mountains, they were flopping forward in the snow, all dragging a big tail.

"Dire Wolves!" Li Yan looked at that, and couldn't help but feel lingering fear. Before participating in the autumn meeting, he was followed by a large group of dire wolves, which was really scary.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look down at the direwolf that came with him. This direwolf is called General White, but it doesn't have the might of a general at all. It can be regarded as a hound at most. It is the only ice beast in the Jiang tribe.

Li Yan thought about bringing it here, it would be more or less helpful.

It's just that it seems to like hunting rabbits very much, and Li Yan can eat the rabbits it catches every day.

But other people's dire wolves brought back large prey such as backbow beasts and siwa beasts.

This made Li Yan unable to hold his head up in front of other patriarchs.

"Mammoths are in groups. It's not easy to tame a mammoth. Even if we can separate and stun a mammoth, those dire wolves will come to grab the meat. When we hunt the mammoth, they will come to snatch it. It's very annoying!" Kui said. Patriarch Kui gritted his teeth.

"Isn't it? There are so many of us. And our dire wolves hunted their prey before, and they were also driven by us. I don't see how powerful they are."

"Those dire wolves are very cunning. When we hit a big prey like a mammoth, they will howl to the sky, and the nearby dire wolves will come to jointly grab the meat. It's annoying, patriarch Yan, you can't underestimate them .”

At this time, Lian Cao, the leader of the Lianshan tribe who was leading the way, turned his head and said, "Yes, taming mammoths is not easy, so we brought enough velociraptor egg feed to minimize the time of taming. There are not only dire wolves in Icewind Dale." , as well as cave bears, saber-toothed tigers, and giant hyenas, these beasts are stronger in the snow, so they should not be underestimated."

Lie Shanli, the patriarch of the Lieshan Tribe, also said: "This time, my four tribes are hunting beasts. Tell me, which tribe will give the first beast?"

When the four tribes join forces, the benefits must be distributed well, otherwise disputes will easily arise.

"Give it to Patriarch Yan, their tribe has no beasts adapted to the cold." Lian Cao said, completely ignoring the unusually 'powerful' direwolf.

"Okay, I'll give it to Patriarch Yan." Lie Shan agreed, "I want the second beast."

"Then I want the third head." The Kui Kui patriarch also said.

"You capture a giant beast first. It is enough for our mountain tribe to tame one mammoth this time. You share the rest. We are all ordinary tribes without clans. It doesn't matter who has a beast."

The Lianshan tribe has the most giant beasts, and they don't even care about the grass. The most important thing when they come out to hunt animals is unity, especially when they encounter tribes with different surnames in the wild, the tribes with the same surname must be united.

"look!"

A mountain warrior on a mammoth in front of him suddenly pointed to the valley in the distance and said excitedly, "Look, it's a herd of mammoths."
