"Hequan, we can't light a fire here, if this continues, everyone will freeze to death."

"Then tell me what can I do? Just go out and drive away all those damn beasts?" A man with a scar on his face and a bearded man asked in a rough voice.

"Didn't someone take advantage of the chaos and go out to find the leader? It's been so many days, and the leader hasn't come back yet?" Someone murmured.

The others fell silent after hearing the words. Everyone knew what it meant to not be able to come back at this time. He Quan had noticed before that this group of beasts clearly came from the direction of the South Foot Plain. If the later tribes did not find the leader , either the leader and the pedestrians had an accident long ago, or the clansmen who left later still did not escape the pursuit of the beast, and thus were buried in the belly of the beast, without conveying their affairs.

Anyway, this is not what they hope to see. After all, if they can't wait for the leader's return, it will be almost the same as the dying people and the dead.They still silently believed in their hearts that their leader must be on his way back with rescuers, and as long as they persevere, they will be saved.

On the edge of the big lake, a group of short beasts are holding wooden sticks and pulling the frozen corpses in the river. Every day, people will freeze to death and be thrown into the lake. In this weather, no matter whether the corpses are placed They are still very fresh after a long time, so the beasts don't mind eating these human beings that they didn't hunt with their own hands.

A few days is enough for these beasts to learn how to use wooden sticks. When the frozen corpse was dragged to the shore with great difficulty, there was a burst of cheers from the beast herd. The people of the Dahu people on the ice floe couldn't help trembling even more, as if those sharp long nails of the beasts were tearing themselves.

An ordinary man walked over hesitantly. He seemed to be quite frightened, and he didn't dare to get close to these grumpy orc warriors. But under the current situation, he couldn't do without coming to them, but a little warrior saw him , I recognized him as the person who followed He Wu. Although He Wu did not expressly accept this person as a disciple, everyone still tacitly agreed that this person might become the next wizard, so when meeting him, he was not like other ordinary people. There is still some respect for people like that.

"Half Finger, what's the matter with you?"

Banzhi was named because his little little finger was only in half. This is why even though Banzhi was smart and quick to learn, He Wu did not accept him as a disciple for a long time. After all, He Wu was also worried that the Beast God would He doesn't like people with disabilities, unless Half Finger can be recognized by the Beast God, otherwise in a few years, maybe He Wu will consider other candidates.

The little soldier saw that Banzhi was only wearing a thin animal skin coat, and his palms were cracked from the cold, and bloodshots even oozed out. It was only because of the cold weather that the bloodshots were frozen again, so the hands were not stained. Blood appears.

The little soldier thought for a while, took off his outermost animal skin coat, stepped forward and put it on Half Finger's body, motioning for the other party to put it on.

The sudden warmth from his body made Banzhi couldn't help sniffling his nose, the corners of his eyes were red, and the moisture in his eyes seemed to turn into liquid and slide down at any moment.

"Don't worry too much, the leader will definitely come back to save us." The little soldier couldn't help comforting him.

Half Finger shook his head lightly, the movement of the two had already attracted the attention of the group of orc warriors not far away.

"Thank you." Half Finger thanked the kind little soldier softly. While putting on the warm animal skin clothes, he walked past the little soldier to Hequan's side. It was this warrior named Hequan who was managing the tribe, and it was also because of him that they were able to escape to the ice floes on the river surface when the herd of beasts suddenly attacked and temporarily saved their lives.

"What's the matter?" Now that he was in such a desperate situation, even if he saw He Wu, He Quan might not have a good face, let alone just an ordinary person who followed He Wu and was not even considered a disciple.

Half Finger's tears flowed down as if the embankment had finally burst because of Heyuan's question that was not considered gentle, and he said to Hequan sobbingly: "Hequan, go and see the big witch, he seems to be dying soon. gone."

Everyone was shocked when they heard the words, He Quan didn't wait for half a finger to finish speaking, he strode towards the back, and before he left, he didn't forget to tell the soldiers standing on the edge, "Be careful not to let the lake freeze. "

The other warriors who were planning to go with them to see the situation stopped, looked at each other, and continued to pick up wooden sticks to stir up the lake, so that the lake would not freeze again, allowing those beasts to run to the lake.

It was only a dozen or so steps away, and several tents were built with animal skins to block the wind, but obviously there was no way to accommodate everyone in the tribe. Many people could only huddle outside the tents and hug each other to keep warm. There is no way to start a fire on the surface, and when the temperature drops even lower at night, many people who are hungry and weak will be frozen to death.

In order to appease the densely packed beasts on the bank, Hequan could only arrange for people to throw these frozen to death tribesmen into the river, and let the beasts salvage them back for food. Even though the interest is strong, and the beast doesn't understand water, it didn't rush to the ice regardless, so it maintained this slightly weird appearance of peace.

And for those tribesmen who were frozen to death, the animal skin clothes they wore would be stripped off and distributed to other people who were still alive.

As soon as Hequan walked in front of the clansman, he heard bursts of suppressed crying. Although he could understand the fear of these people, this situation still made Hequan feel anxious for no reason, as if a pair of dead hands had strangled his throat. It was as if he could cut off his breath at any time, making him feel that no matter how he resisted, there was no way to escape.

He Quan glared at the people outside the tent, then bent down and opened the tent and walked in.

Even a big witch in a tribe can't use a tent alone in this special period, and there are many young children crowded inside, but no one speaks, just scattered in the corner, dare not One step closer to the middle.

He Quan walked over, and He Wu lay quietly in the middle. His body was covered with two layers of animal skins, which wrapped his thin and old body tightly, but still couldn't cover the bloodless face of the other party.

He Quan squatted down, stretched out his hand to tuck the animal skin quilt for He Wu, and called out softly, "Great Wu."

Of course the river witch would not respond to him, not even the slightest.

He Quan's hands trembled a little, he clenched his fist lightly, and finally, as if he had made up his mind, he stretched out his hand and lightly touched He Wu's nose.No breath came out, and even the place where the skin touched was icy cold. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, He Quan would have thought that what he touched was a piece of cold and hard ice.

Half Finger bent over, because there were too many people in the tent, he couldn't squeeze to He Wu's side, seeing He Quan's body stiff and motionless, Half Finger was very worried, and asked anxiously: "He Quan, how is Da Wu? "

He Quan didn't answer the half-fingered words. He suddenly punched the ice below him, which scared the children in the tent to scream. Thanks to the thick ice here, only a few Cracks, not broken.

Seeing this, Banzhi couldn't guess anything. He pushed Heyuan away in front of him. Because of the narrow space, he could only see the scene in front of him with most of his body pressed against Hequan. He looked at the scene in disbelief. He Wu, who was lying with his eyes closed, could still feel the breath of the other party when he left just now. Although it was very faint, he was sure that He Wu must still be alive at that time. Who knew that it was only a short time. It turned out to be.......

Before Banzhi cried out, Hequan covered his mouth, "Did the great witch explain anything just now?"

Nodding with half a finger full of tears.

"Speak." He Quan relaxed the strength of his hand a little so that the half finger could speak.

"The great witch said, as long as we persevere, we will be saved."

He Quan let out a deep breath when he heard the words, he let go of his half finger, and looked around at the little radish heads in the tent, "The leader will be back soon, you stay here obediently and don't go anywhere, I will first Take Da Wu to another place to wait for the leader."

The children looked at each other, and their lifeless eyes lit up one after another when they heard that the leader was coming back. They all nodded to Hequan and promised that they would stay here obediently and wait.

He Quan touched the head of the child closest to him with satisfaction. The child had a small bruise on his face, but after being touched by He Quan, he still grinned and tried to show a smile.

Hequan distributed the two animal skins covering the big witch to the children, and then left the tent with his stiff body in his arms. He touched the tears on his face with half his fingers. He didn't follow him out, no need to guess. He knew what Hequan would take Dawu to do, even though he understood that it was a last resort, he still couldn't accept that he would see that scene with his own eyes, so he chose to stay and continue to take care of the children in the tent.

"how is the situation?"

Jiaozhu lifted the snow-white hood on his head, shook his head slightly, and briefly reported what he saw to everyone, "The people of the Great Lake tribe are all huddled on an ice floe on the lake, the ice floe and the river The two sides are separated by water, and the beasts can't cross the water, so they are all huddled on the bank of the river and guarding it, as if they are waiting for the water to freeze again."

Hearing that there are still people alive in his tribe, he finally breathed a sigh of relief after worrying about the river battle all the way. He doesn't know which kid is so smart and knows how to lead his tribe to hide on the ice floes. I'm afraid I won't be able to see the people in the tribe until he comes back.Thinking of the river battle here, I was afraid again.

"However..." Jiaozhu paused, glanced at He Zhan, and continued: "It seems that the people of the Dahu tribe threw their dead tribesmen into the lake to feed the beasts."

Without waiting for He Zhan's reaction, Lu Zhan smiled, "I didn't expect that there are smart people in your tribe who know how to confront the beasts in this way."

If there is no human flesh to eat, so many humans dangle in front of the beast, whether you are separated by a lake or a volcanic cliff, the beast will try every means to pounce on the people and eat them.Although the current method of slowly using corpses to feed the beasts is difficult to accept emotionally, it has to be said that it can at least temporarily guarantee the safety of other tribesmen, and it delays enough time for them to catch up. here we go.

"The weather is so cold at night now, every time it is delayed, more and more people will be unable to hold on, Ah Zhan, when shall we do it?" Luo Zhen asked worriedly.

You must know that the ice floes are on the water, and there is no wood on the ice floes to warm them up. The attack of the herd of beasts is relatively sudden. I believe that when the people of the Great Lakes Tribe are exhausted, they will not be able to spare time. Come prepare a lot of food.

Hunger plus cold, not to mention those underage children, even adults can’t bear it. Even if all the people of the Great Lakes Tribe fled to the ice floes at that time, after these few days, I believe that many people have been damaged. .Now that they have decided to save the people of the Great Lakes Tribe, they naturally hope to save as many people as possible.

Lu Zhan thought for a while, and he looked around the surrounding environment, "According to the previously discussed tactics, we will start attacking in a while."

The other soldiers responded one after another. Lu Zhan looked to the side and still didn't change much. Hei Yuan even yawned and said to Luo Zhen, "You will follow Hei Yuan closely in a while."

Hei Yuan's ears moved when he heard his name. He patted the antler horse he was riding, walked to Luo Zhen's side, smiled with eight standard teeth, and patted his chest to promise: "Smelly!" Don't worry, son, as long as I'm here, I will definitely not let Zhenzhen have an accident."

Lu Zhan glanced at him and nodded lightly. That's why he asked Heiyuan to follow him. Even though there were flame ants protecting Luo Zhen, he was still not safe with Heiyuan. With Heiyuan around, at least Lu Zhan can have no worries at all.

Lu Yi, who was hiding in Luo Zhen's collar, poked his head out not to be outdone, 【I will protect my mother too. 】

Zhuifeng also wanted to make a statement, but when he opened his mouth, he was very loud, worried that it would be heard by the beasts not far away, so he could only silently swallow the sound he was about to make, and only took a few steps back and forth. Prove that you can protect Luo Zhen too.

Luo Zhen touched the two little guys amusedly, and he took off the wooden bow on his back. The quiver was already filled with special arrows, indicating that he was ready.

Lu Zhan nodded and waved to the crowd. The others put on all their weapons, got off the antler horse, and touched the big lake lightly.

For such a small number of fighters, although Hezhan has heard them discuss how to deal with the beasts all the way, I still have to worry, the number of beasts is hundreds of times their number, they can really rely on such Can a few people rescue the people in their own tribe?Although He Zhan was full of question marks, deep down in his heart he really hoped that these people could really do it.

After all, if even the Sunshine Tribe failed, there would be no other tribes around here who would be able to save them.

Seeing the soldiers walking away, He Zhan couldn't help but look curiously at Shan Qi who was still staying where he was, "Aren't you a soldier? Why don't you go up?"

Shan Qi pulled Shansong's antler horse over, and threw He Zhan on the back of the antler horse. The antler horse didn't seem to like this strange orc warrior very much. The river battle was thrown into the ground.

Along the way, Shan Qi had briefly explained to He Zhan what he needed to pay attention to when riding an antler horse. Apart from being frightened by Shan Qi's throwing action, He Zhan quickly sat up straight. He had never He has ridden any wild beast, and he also knows that the speed of the antler horse is not worse than the speed of their beastmen when they turned into animals. He is somewhat envious that the people of the Sun Yao tribe can get the antler horse, but now The safety of the people in the Great Lakes Tribe was even more important, and River Wars didn't have the time to think too much about the antler horses.

The other vacant antler horses had already run to a safe place to stay. Shan Qi also held a wooden bow in his hand, and only glanced at He Zhan, without answering the other party's question.

In fact, Shan Qi really wanted to act together with other fighters, but unfortunately he was in a coma for too long and his body wasted too much, and it will not be a matter of time before he recovers.Before his strength could return to its peak, Shan Qi was also worried that he would become a drag on the clansmen. Although he was allowed to come out with him this time, he could only serve as a support in the rear just like Luo Zhen .

"Hide away for a while, as long as you hug the antler horse tightly, you don't have to worry about being caught by the beast." Shan Qi confessed.Compared with himself, this foreign leader who is covered in injuries is obviously more like a burden. Once the battle starts, Shan Qi can't separate his mind from taking care of his safety at all times, so he can only remind him in advance.

He Zhan nodded again and again, these people came to save his own clansmen, so it is naturally impossible for him to hold back.

Heiyuan also got off the antler horse, and jumped onto a tall and bare fig tree with a few vertical leaps. Although the antler horse was fast, it was very unfavorable for Heiyuan to fight.He glanced at the situation in the distance, and said to Luo Zhen under the tree: "Zhenzhen, you brats are about to start."

Luo Zhen took a deep breath, and he opened the wooden box behind Zhuifeng. A group of fiery red ants heard the order, slowly crawled out of the wooden box, quickly fell on the snow, and then disappeared into the surrounding dry trees , lost sight.

"Then let's come and see the strength of these beasts." Luo Zhen's face rarely showed eagerness to fight.

Hei Yuan and Shan Qi stood by Luo Zhen's side, one on the left and one on the right, and the river battle fell a few steps behind Luo Zhen, looking nervously at the direction of the great lake.

There was a rustling sound coming from a distance, and the excessive silence made He Zhan swallow his saliva. Luo Zhen picked up his wooden bow and drew it full, when the first beast appeared in their sight At that time, Luo Zhen let go of his hand, and the arrow hit the brow of the beast with a "swoosh", and the beast fell to the snow without knowing what happened.
