Beasts Are Boundless

Chapter 16 Edelweiss

The six teams, after starting from the tribe, galloped away in six directions, and soon disappeared at the end of the white horizon.

And Ye Qiong and Dian Dian belong to the seventh team…

Ye Qiong prefers to travel alone with Duoduo. A few years ago, he could only sneak out. After all, Ye Tianlong didn’t want his son to be taken away by wild animals.

After all, Ye Qiong’s strength is there, Ye Tianlong can’t control him anymore. Although Ye Tianlong is very worried every time he goes out, who makes this son worry and love to run outside? way things.

What’s even more irritating is that since the beginning of two years ago, this kid ran out without anyone taking it with him.

Although it was reluctant, but there was no way for him to refuse to let the wind go, and gradually he fell in love with it. After all, Ye Qiong often grabs some monsters to bake and eat, and each time Ye Qiong only eats one front calf, The rest of the meat all entered the dull stomach.

The last time when the beast swarm came, Ye Qiong also took Dao Dao and ran out by himself. Fortunately, he told Rong Ling about his destination before leaving, so that Rong Ling could find him.

This time Ye Qiong brought plenty of jerky, and behind the blank is a special backpack made by Ye Qiong. There are many pockets, and there are a bunch of messy things in the eyes of the clan.

Rather than a backpack, it was actually more like a fitted vest. After all, with such a large body, he was born to be a good seedling in the labor force, which Ye Qiong cultivated very well.

Now Xue Xing has entered the cold winter for nine months, and the time has just passed halfway, which is also a watershed. From this time on, Xue Xing officially began to enter the crazy countdown…

Long winter!

Above the cruel snow star, Mother Earth is not so heartless. After the beginning of winter, a very special plant began to spread and grow from the ground. This plant grows very slowly and grows slowly underground. It took nine months to emerge from the ground.

Edelweiss, this plant is very cold-resistant. Its body composition is a substance with a very low freezing point, which can survive at more than 30 degrees below zero. Although it is grass, it is gray-white in color, slightly sweet with a hint of sweetness and bitterness, and can be eaten.

It is a pity that the number of edelweiss is very rare, and the places where it appears are extremely cold places, the average temperature is about minus 15 degrees, there will be some places to grow edelweiss in the area around the Dinglong Mountains. .

Many tribes are not rich in materials and food. At this time, they will go out of the tribe to look for edelweiss and hunt carrion beasts.

It takes a lot of courage for Xue Xing to walk out of the tribal greenhouse, because after leaving the tribe, the human beings outside will not only have to face the cruel blizzard and the low temperature of minus ten degrees, but also have to face every moment. Beware of scavenger attacks, as they hunt scavengers, scavengers are actually hunting them.

If you are unlucky and encounter the beast tide, it will be a near death.

Most of the human beings who left the tribe after nine months of winter did not come back…

Only a few teams were able to collect edelweiss, and if they were lucky, they would hunt down a few scavengers.

Ye Qiong was riding on the back of Duan at the moment, one person and one bear were advancing in the snow, and the speed was not fast.

In fact, there is another advantage of coming out with a daze, that is, it will not get lost. The long-tailed bear on the snow star has evolved some kind of organ that senses magnetic fields in its body, which can easily identify the direction. So every time he came out, Ye Qiong didn’t have to worry about getting lost, as long as he stayed by his side, he could find his way back to the tribe.

Very reliable long-tailed bear.

Ye Qiong is also researching other functions of Dawn, and he found that many creatures on this planet have carried some special abilities from birth.

One of them is the special mucus secreted by the tail of the king lion moose.

At this moment, Ye Qiong was lying on Duan’s back, staring at the sky in a daze, and nibbling at the jerky of the king lion moose in his hand, what I have to say is.

The air-dried meat of the king lion moose is very fragrant.

While nibbling on the meat, I looked left and right from time to time, and now I can’t see the tribe.

Ye Qiong had been lying on Dian Dian’s back, and after pointing Dian Dian’s direction, he didn’t care, and just walked into the dark.

There is also a very practical advantage to come out with a fool, that is, there is no need to set up a tent…

Because it takes ten minutes to dig out a snow cave, and Ye Qiong can lie in his arms at night when he sleeps. He is a natural heater and doesn’t need anything to keep warm at all. Relying on Duan’s body temperature, the entire snow cave can be swept away. temperature can be maintained above zero degrees Celsius.

The snow cave under the ground is also very safe. If you look at it from a distance of 100 meters, you can’t see any traces at all.

On Xuexing, the teams that go out to hunt in winter will not set up tents or the like. The tribes with long-tailed bears will let the long-tailed bears dig holes, while the tribes without long-tailed bears can only dig manually. Although it will take some effort, it is safest to sleep under the ground.

A very helpless thing. If a tent is set up on the ground, a small team of about ten people will be targeted by scavengers in minutes. Some stronger scavengers will take advantage of the night. They attacked while they were sleeping, and as long as three or five gathered together, they could destroy a team of ten or so.

The roles of hunter and prey are constantly changing.

Of course, there are also some powerful humans who deliberately set up tents on the snow surface in order to attract the attention of scavengers and hunt them down. The so-called best hunters often appear as prey.

When night fell, the dazzling galaxy was beautiful and splendid. Ye Qiong lay on the snow and waited to dig a hole, when he saw that he was like a pangolin, with his claws outstretched, and his fingertips were twenty centimeters long. A finger is like a dagger, and the steel bar is inserted into the snow forcefully.

With the effort of a cigarette, Danny dug a 45-degree snow hole in the snow and came out. The hole was very deep. After Dian went in, there was still a lot of empty space to come out. It will be smaller, because Ye Qiong is there, so the hole will be narrowed and the inside will be bigger.

The snow cave is behind a small slope, against the wind direction, forming an air backflow. After the pressure is reduced, it can effectively keep warm.

Duo Duo yelled at Ye Qiong twice, and then he got in first.

Ye Qiong didn’t feel sleepy at the moment, so he didn’t pay attention to Duan, but stared at the night sky and started dazed, thinking about where the earth would be if he was still in the original universe, and how far away from him… …

Just when Ye Qiong was thinking about something on his mind, a bright light suddenly flashed away in the distance…
