Chronicles of Primordial Wars
Chapter 359
A mountain wild mouse can make the old man so excited, maybe it has something to do with the "thousand grains of gold" that the old man said?
Shao Xuan didn't wait long, and quickly followed the wild mouse.
The wild mouse ran very fast, but stopped and stopped. When it stopped, it looked around cautiously, and if it didn't find any threat, it continued to run.
Shao Xuan could only use some low trees or slightly taller grass to cover it. The plants in this area were not growing very well, and there were not many shelters that could be found. It was a bit more difficult to keep up quietly.
For Shao Xuan, even if it was a bit more difficult, he could overcome it and successfully keep up with the wild rat, but the old man couldn't. His hidden skills were not as good as Shao Xuan's. Rat, just follow Shao Xuan.
After following him for about twenty minutes, the wild mouse finally stopped. Shao Xuan stood not far away and watched the wild mouse enjoying the food, then turned and waved to the old man who was following behind.
Even if Shao Xuan didn't know the plant, he could be sure that it wasn't the "thousand grains of gold" that the old man said. The target is those red fruits.
Looking at the wild mouse whose eyes narrowed after eating the fruit, the old man sighed, "It's a pity."
But the old man didn't hold out much hope. He knew that "Thousand Grains of Gold" was hard to find, so he was mentally prepared.
After the wild rat enjoyed the food, it slowly ran in the other direction, still running for one meal, but not as fast as before.
In the sky, some birds smaller than sparrows flew over to peck at the fruits.
Before the birds could finish pecking the fruit, the old man quickly stepped up and stroked them, and then threw them into his mouth one by one.
There was a raised stone on the ground next to it, and the old man sat there, eating fruit while looking around the mountain.
"Do you know this tree?" Shao Xuan asked.
"I don't know, it's the first time to eat." The old man said.
Shao Xuan twitched his mouth, reached out and picked a few fruits from the low shrub and threw them into his mouth. A little sweet, but ok. No wonder the wild rat hurried over here.
When hunting in the forest, if you see an unknown plant, even if the fruit looks attractive, the hunting warriors will not touch it. Unless they've seen other animals eat it, they'll just try it a little bit and see if it can fit into the recipe. However, this old man obviously relied on his detoxification physique to eat unscrupulously. Shao Xuan believed that even if he didn't see the voles and birds, the old man would still eat them.
"Old man. Why do you want to try all kinds of trees, flowers and plants? Try the poison yourself?" Shao Xuan asked.
"Yeah, whether it's a poison or a drug with great benefits, you have to try it before you know it, and there are still many waiting to be discovered in the future. We... a family, have started countless attempts since our ancestors, everyone eats The things that are used can only be obtained by trial and error. Daggers, dustpans, beds, mattresses, pillows, tea, wine, vinegar, sugar, and oil, which one was not tried by the ancestors?" The old man's eyes revealed incomparable expressions. color of reverence. He didn't even eat the fruit, and said with infinite emotion: "My descendants should inherit the will of the ancestors and shine through the ages! The merits will last forever!"
Shao Xuan watched the old man spitting out, impassioned, this man really wanted to carry forward the entrepreneurial spirit, pioneering spirit, and self-sacrificing spirit of his ancestors, and this old man's biggest goal now is to find it before he dies. The "thousand grains of gold" mentioned once in the patriarch's notes.
"Even if it's just a meeting, I'm satisfied," the old man said.
Ever since I read the "Thousand Grains of Gold" mentioned in the ancestors' handbooks, the old man went to bed without food or safety. Especially now that many places are dry and the harvest of food crops is poor. Nowadays, not everyone is willing to go hunting. Many people with low ability and advocating comfort are used to shaving food from the ground. Not many people are willing to go to the distant mountains and forests to fight beasts. Moreover, there are not many beasts around many crowd gathering places. If you want to hunt, you have to run to a farther place.
Again. The densely forested area has been occupied by some fierce tribes. Those people are not easy to talk, and they will fight if they disagree, especially those with horns.
If more drought-tolerant food crops can be found, the current situation can be alleviated to a certain extent. As for what Shao Xuan said about begging for rain, there are people who are begging every year, but unfortunately they can't come. When I think of this old man, I get angry. Thanks to those people who still claim to be descendants of the ancient witch family, they can collect their salary quickly. They make excuses one by one when they ask for the rain.
After the rest, the two continued to walk along the main route, but occasionally slipped up the mountain in the middle.
Two days later, there is still no trace of "Thousand Grains of Gold".
In the past two days, the old man has been poisoned four times because he encountered unfamiliar plants and eaten indiscriminately. One of them even bleeds from the seven orifices. He continued to look for a thousand grains of gold again and again.
In this regard, Shao Xuan had to sigh about the strength of the drug rehabilitation system of this old man's family.
Many times Shao Xuan listened to the old man's narration, occasionally said a few words, and most of the time he was just a listener. From the old man's words, Shao Xuanneng could infer some things. For example, the old man did not come from a tribe, but from a city governed by a slave owner. The old man himself was a slave owner.
It was the first time that Shao Xuan saw such a slave owner. In the past, his impression of the slave owners was all the people on the other side of the desert, but now it is rare to encounter an alternative slave owner.
"No way, I'll rest for a while, look around." The old man leaning on a branch sat down against the mountain wall, "You're old, not as good as back then, think back then..."
"You should stop 'thinking about the past', hurry up and go to sleep," Shao Xuan said.
Because following this old man, Shao Xuan's footsteps slowed down a lot, and it was not the shortest route. After two days of walking, there was no dense feeling around. I don't know if I can walk at this speed for two days. To a little dense forest.
Since he agreed to travel with the old man, Shao Xuan would not leave people halfway, just slow down, he was not particularly in a hurry.
In this barren place, Shao Xuan did not see a large beast, but saw several human skeletons.
Glancing around, Shao Xuan recalled several useful plants that the old man introduced to him today. If he saw it within his field of vision, Shao Xuan would also call the number silently in his heart and review it.
Just thinking about it, Shao Xuan heard the sound of running. It wasn't loud, but the sound and rhythm sounded like the voles he'd tracked before.
If it was only one, Shao Xuan heard the movements of several.
Could it be that this is a wild rat's den?
Shao Xuan stood up and looked at the place where the voice came from.
Several wild mice from different directions ran in the same direction. That posture was not like running for his life, but more like the wild rat who was looking for fruit before, with urgency and desire.
"Old House! Hey, wake up, there is a situation in the old house!" Shao Xuan pushed the old man who was asleep.
"What's wrong?" Because Shao Xuan was guarding, the old man rarely fell asleep at ease. Before getting enough sleep, he was woken up by Shao Xuan, feeling a little confused for a while.
Shao Xuan was planning to talk to the old man about his findings, but before he could speak, the old man had already shaken his ears and heard the surrounding movement. This is completely occupational conditioning, he hears other sounds and ignores them directly, only some specific sounds can stimulate his nerves in the shortest time.
A trembling, the old man was so excited that he lost all sleep. Looking around, the old man threw the wooden stick used as a crutch and climbed up the mountain wall.
The vision here is not good, he has to go to a higher place to see. But there are no sturdy trees around, and then look at the surrounding terrain, the most time-saving is to climb the mountain wall.
"Hey, slow down." Shao Xuan was afraid that his foot would slip and fall, so he was on guard below. If the old man fell from the top when he was excited, he would still be able to continue.
But the emotionally excited old man couldn't take care of it so much, and only focused on climbing up. Shao Xuan saw that he was struggling to climb, and he helped him.
After climbing up, the old man's radar-like eyes swept around, his ears trembling while scanning, probably distinguishing the desired sound from the surrounding noise. (To be continued.)
