Chapter 290
"What do you think Xiaoyu Sui and the others are doing? Will they be overjoyed to see us later?"
Not far from the territory of the Heitu tribe, hundreds of snow wolves were walking hurriedly, carrying large and small bags, and it seemed they were heading towards the Heitu tribe.
Heiyan, who had been out for many days, walked in front. The closer he got to the tribe, the happier he smiled, revealing his white teeth. He turned his head and talked to Lu.
Just at this moment, they stepped into the territory. Lu stepped onto a higher hill and looked around. He saw that the fields around the tribe seemed to have changed.
"I guess they're farming. Didn't Xiaoyu say that we can sow seeds when the weather gets warmer?" Lu answered casually.
A female snow werewolf came forward. She looked about the same age as Lu. Standing there and looking around, she saw large stretches of flat fields, almost the same as those on the minotaur's side.
She took a deep breath with a look of shock in her eyes, "Now I think following you here was not a wrong decision."
She was very nervous along the way. She wanted to believe what Green and Black Rock said and let her people have a life with enough food and warm clothing. But with the previous experience of the Golden Kingdom, she was afraid of leading her people on a path of no return.
If it weren't for the earnest persuasion of Chief Kun, her neighbor for many years, she would not have taken the risk with her tribesmen.
But since experiencing an attack by a high-level magical beast, there are only a few warriors left in the Qiong tribe, and there are only a few dozen tribesmen. Life has become increasingly difficult over the years, and they have been starving every winter.
Lu and Heiyan said that the Heitu tribe would not starve in winter now, which really touched her heart. In recent years, the warriors of the Qiong tribe had to patrol the territory and hunt, and the few warriors who were left were too tired. A few months ago, when they went out hunting, one warrior was almost seriously injured by a monster because he was too tired. Fortunately, the others reacted quickly.
Under such circumstances, the prey the warriors brought back was only enough to feed the tribesmen, and there was almost nothing left to eat in the winter.
The other tribesmen did not have such high combat power. In order to help, in addition to collecting edible green leafy vegetables and fruits every day, everyone would also hunt rabbits, guinea pigs, etc. to fill their stomachs.
In other territories of snow werewolves, no one would take the initiative to eat this kind of small prey except the cubs. Only when there is no food in winter will the snow werewolves catch them. However, because these prey are small and can hide, eating them is usually not enough to make up for the physical energy expended in catching them.
But in the Qiong tribe, all the low-level monsters in the territory were eaten up, so everyone had to gather more people to go out and hunt some low-level monsters to share some of the pressure for the warriors.
This continent is full of dangers, who knows when you might encounter a mid to high level monster?
Joan knew in her heart that this kind of life could not continue any longer, otherwise only destruction would await them.
There are so many tribes that disappear silently every year. She really doesn't want this day to come, but she can't think of any solution.
Although she was shocked by what Green and Black Rock said, the Snow Werewolves actually lived with the Dwarves and let a cub be the chief. This year they had to learn to farm like the Tauren, which meant that most of the tribe's energy would be spent on the land.
If they fail, the Heitu tribe, which has no food reserves, will not be able to survive this winter.
That's why she hesitated.
Last winter, because the tribe had no extra goods to exchange for food, Qiong did not go to the Red Grass Tribe and did not meet Heiyan and others.
Kun told her that everything Heiyan said was achievable. He had witnessed with his own eyes that the snow wolves of the Heitu tribe could easily take out something as precious as sugar. The young chief was even more amazing. He could cook a lot of delicious food and had countless ideas in his head. He wanted to take his people on an adventure.
Life in the Kun tribe is only slightly better than that in the Qiong tribe. Kun hopes that no more tribesmen will lose their lives because of food.
This sentence completely shook Joan's heart. She thought the same thing.
The journey to the Heitu tribe was not short, and she felt very heavy all the way. Until this moment, she saw with her own eyes the vast expanse of endless flat fields, and her anxious heart almost settled down instantly.
Heiyan laughed heartily and said, "Don't worry. Since we invited you here, we will definitely make sure you don't go hungry. With the Minotaur here, even though this is our first time farming, there won't be any big mistakes. Besides, we have Xiaoyu Sui here too, he has a lot of ideas."
Qiong was extremely curious about this young patriarch who was mentioned again and again. She heard that it was he who proposed the idea of farming, and this cub was only thirty years old.
If only her son was so powerful, but unfortunately, although her son Sen was a good warrior, he was not good at handling tribal affairs.
She smiled and said, "Heiyan is lucky to have such a good successor so early on. Unlike me, I am old and still can't find a suitable candidate to be the next clan leader."
"You don't have to worry now. Let's throw all the burdens to the Heitu tribe." Kun said with a smile.
Qiong didn't say anything, but she was thinking in her heart that there were nearly two hundred snow wolves in the Qiong tribe and the Kun tribe together. The young chief named Yu Sui had to worry about food alone.
"Uncle Kuroiwa! You're back!"
A snow wolf ran ahead, shouting excitedly, and several other snow wolves followed behind.
"It's Notting. Are you in charge of patrol today?" Green recognized him and said with a smile.
When he got closer, Notting braked suddenly with all four paws. After greeting the group of snow werewolves, he said to Black Rock and Green, "We actually brought back both tribes. That's great. Xiaoyu was still worried about whether we'd succeeded a few days ago. He must be very happy now."
Everyone could see Yu Sui's desire for help, even someone as thick-skinned as Notting could see it.
The Snow Wolves curiously followed Notting and his companions towards the Black Map Tribe.
There were flat fields all along the way. Going further in, they could vaguely see orcs working. To their surprise, these seemed to be... rabbits?
Notting had anticipated their surprise. Before the two tribes' snow wolves could ask, he explained, "These are the newly joined rabbit tribe. They're timid, so we should go around them. Xiaoyu Sui will have them plant radishes over there."
Heiyan turned to Kun and Qiong and said, "These are the rabbits who were rescued from the tigers, as well as the cats and rats. They should be working somewhere else."
The two of them looked more serious, and Kun frowned and said, "The Golden Kingdom is really outrageous."
After walking a little further, we first encountered tiger people and snow wolves who were growing wheat, and a little later we met argali people and small orcs who were growing other crops.
