Chapter 170 Arrival

In the next few days, Shen Xiaoxiao picked up stones from the ground. She picked up several baskets of large and small stones.

After she cleared the ground so that things could be planted in the cave, she planted cotton seeds. Not many, about sixty.

It's still hot now, so there's no need to keep warm. When it gets cold, she'll have to use charcoal fire, but she has to control the temperature, otherwise she'll easily die of cold or burn to death.

When she came out of the cave, she found a circle of people outside the cave. She was surprised and asked, "Who are you?"

"Goddess, we heard that you are growing something in the cave and wanted to come and take a look."

"Yes, they have just been planted, but there is nothing to see now."

"Goddess, can we take a look?"

"Okay, just don't step on it."

"We will definitely be careful."

Shen Xiaoxiao made way for them to go in, but they also knew that something was planted inside and not too many people could go in at one time. It took them several times to finish reading it. After reading it, there was only one thought in their mind. There was really nothing interesting to see. It's dirt, it's better to look at it from the outside, and the smell is a bit strong.

Seeing their disappointed expressions, Shen Xiaoxiao just smiled. She even said there was nothing good to see, but they didn't believe it.

After planting the cotton, Shen Xiaoxiao was free. The female members of the tribe had already gone to pick wild fruits and returned to store them for the winter. She promised Xiao Yan that she would not leave the tribe, and she also knew that she would encounter some troubles as soon as she went out. She didn't want to bother with a good thing.

And although the harvest in the fields was not good, they also stocked up a lot of things. When Xiao Yan came back, they would pick some chestnuts and persimmons.

Counting the days, Xiao Yan and the others have been away for nearly twenty days. I don’t know what happened to them. Did they arrive successfully? Shen Xiaoxiao already regretted mentioning this. It turns out that worrying about someone is such a feeling that you can't eat well or sleep well.

And there was no news at all when they left, as if they had lost contact. If something happened to them, she wouldn't know. She shouldn't be so anxious. She should be prepared before letting them go. She knew before that there was no place here. It was convenient, but now she really felt powerless. If she had learned more, wouldn't she now have no need to worry at home?

The people she was thinking about had also arrived at their destination and had been running all the way. Although they had prepared dry food and oxcarts to ride on, they were still very tired after walking all the way. Although they did not encounter any danger along the way, everyone All a little tired.

"Lin Yun, how far is it?" Xiao Yan's deep voice sounded, and others also looked at him.

Lin Yun looked around and said in a hoarse voice, "We'll be there soon. I remember there is a small river nearby. There will be water to drink when we get there."

They had not encountered a water source for three days, and there was only a little water left in the bottle. They were afraid that they would drink all the water before they found the water source, so they resisted drinking the remaining half of the water.

The sun was quite strong along the way. Before they learned to be goddesses, they built a shed and used branches to build a roof over the oxcart to protect them from the sun. This way they would not be so exposed to the sun while riding in the car.

Xiao Yan also knew that everyone was tired, but they couldn't stop now. Although they still had food, there was no water. There was only a dead end waiting for them. They had to hold on to the place.

After an unknown amount of time, they finally stopped. Everyone looked at the golden scene in front of them and forgot to react. Is this what the goddess asked them to find? It's really beautiful and has a nice smell, but they don't have the heart to see it now. Their only idea is to find the water source first, then drink the water, not to mention people, even the cows can't stand it.

At first, they rode in bullock carts, but after running out of water, they all walked in order to reduce the burden on the cattle.

Soon they reached the small river that Lin Yun was talking about, and couldn't wait to grab the water and drink it. They also didn't forget to take the cows to drink water. Everyone drank happily, and they stopped after a while. down.

They were going to see if they could find prey nearby. They tried to catch some prey to eat together along the way, so as to save some money. They had some sweet potatoes left, but it was not enough to just rely on sweet potatoes to satisfy their hunger. Make sure you have enough food when you go back.

"Who are you? Why are you here?"

They followed the sound and found several females and males standing not far away, looking at them with doubts in their eyes and lowering their heads to communicate.

Xiao Yan frowned slightly, and found that he didn't seem to understand what they were saying.

"We happened to be passing by here, which tribe do you belong to?" He remembered that there were indeed several small tribes nearby, but he didn't know which tribe they belonged to.

"Can you understand what they said?" Xiao Yan asked.

"I stayed here for a while before, and I learned a little from them in order to facilitate communication." Lin Yun said calmly.

"Brother Lin is amazing. He can learn it as soon as he learns it. It took us a long time to learn a few sentences." The person who had wandered with Xiao Yan in the past couldn't help but said, looking a little proud.

Xiao Yan nodded. Fortunately, he could, otherwise it would be troublesome not to be able to communicate. If they misunderstood something, it would be difficult to tell them later.

However, he was surprised that the words spoken in this place were different from what they said. He originally thought they all spoke the same thing, but he didn't expect it to be so different.

"They said they were from the Stone Tribe. Seeing that we were strangers, they came to ask us what we did. After all, there were more of us, and they were worried that it would be bad for their tribe." According to his understanding, the tribes nearby were relatively small, with less than 50 people, including the elderly and cubs, but this group of people had 30 people, so it was no wonder that they were nervous.

However, although their tribe was small, they were relatively united. If any tribe had problems, the other tribes would help, so generally no one would dare to bully them.

After all, a tribe has few people, but several tribes together are not that big of a deal.

"How do we tell them? Tell them directly?"

Xiao Yan pondered for a moment and said, "Tell them that we came out to find food and got lost and came to this place." He didn't know if they knew that the rice was edible. If they knew, then this matter would be difficult to deal with.

After all, it was food, and the other party would not give it up.

Although they were many, they were tired all the way, and they were not familiar with this place. According to what Lin Yun said, their tribes were relatively united. If they were really provoked, they would probably lose a layer of skin, and he didn't want to cause trouble when he was out.

Lin Yun's mouth twitched slightly, lost? He was lucky to think of it. Which good family would get lost for twenty days and travel such a long distance.

Although he complained in his heart, Lin Yun said this reason without changing his face, mainly because he was too lazy to think.

Unexpectedly, after hearing it, those people lowered their heads and discussed, and even secretly glanced at Lin Yun and his friends. Although their actions were relatively secretive, they did not escape the eyes of Xiao Yan and his friends.

After a while, they looked at Lin Yun and said something. Lin Yun was a little surprised, "They want to invite us to their tribe as guests."

Xiao Yan was also a little surprised, "Are you sure?"

"Yeah."

"You reject them first." Xiao Yan thought for a moment and said, "Unless they are really hospitable, they will definitely not insist, or they have other requests." And he thinks the second one is more likely.

Lin Yun rejected them as Xiao Yan said, but they still insisted, and there seemed to be a plea in their eyes, which made Xiao Yan and the others confused. They intuitively felt that there must be something wrong. They didn't want to wade into this muddy water and firmly refused.

Although the other party was a little disappointed, they didn't say anything else. When they left, they couldn't help but look back at Xiao Yan and the others, as if they were expecting them to change their minds.
