Apocalyptic Dark Age

The sky is still gloomy, but no more snow has fallen, and the wilderness is no longer bone-chilling. Some higher sunny slopes reveal moist red soil. Countless green sprouts dot the red soil, forming a vague green carpet. .

The most beautiful spring in the wilderness has arrived. Although all the fallen snow has not melted, the wilderness has survived the most difficult moments. Hibernating animals appear one after another on the red and white earth. The plants that have survived the winter are even greener. Even the usually quiet tribes The camp is a little more energetic.

After hundreds of years of inheritance, the Black Claw tribe still stands majestically in the western wilderness despite the catastrophe of the wilderness. The tribe's camp is still firmly in the hands of Sky Claw. Outside the tribe, thousands of people are busy in the wilderness. People used various tools to cut through the frozen ice and snow, clearing patches of wet roads, and then threw the ice and snow fragments along the roads into the water cellars ordered to be dug before the peak.

Every water cellar is a node, and the nodes are surrounded by large areas of cultivated Elaeagnus jujuba fields. This year’s Elaeagnus jujube fields are particularly joyful. The planting area has expanded five times compared to last year, indicating that this year will be a good harvest. The old man will tell the new people who joined the tribe about the previous difficulties, and at the same time smile with relief. This is the fruit of victory preserved by the tribe's blood and sacrifice. Many people will always sigh when they talk about this, because this is what the great elder paid for. , however, the great elder left the tribe.

Tianzhao stood on the newly built high tower on the wall and looked out into the wild. He stared intently at the white snow. He knew that within the scope of his eyes, the snow was full of anatomy that was about to sprout. This land carried The hopeful land of the peak will bring them countless Elaeagnus jujube before autumn.

All of this is a miracle accomplished by his youngest son. According to the plan described before Tallow handed over, Gao Feng is preparing to expand another 100,000 acres of fields in the spring, plant southern barren wheat, and build a 200-kilometer winding canal from sweet to sweet. The wells brought sweet underground water to water these fields, so that the Black Claw tribe would never have to face famine again.

Thinking of Gao Feng, Tianzhao felt ashamed. Everything was a miracle accomplished by Gao Feng with all his efforts, but he took away Gao Feng's achievements. Even though he was Gao Feng's nominal father, he still caused criticism from the people below. If it had been before , Tianzhao will do everything he can to make up for the peak. After all, it all belongs to the peak in the end. He is just unwilling to be mediocre in his lifetime.

But now, Gao Feng has completely severed ties with him, leaving him feeling empty and even more disappointed, because he is not sure that he can achieve results that exceed Gao Feng, and the Tianzhao tribe is also in short supply of food due to various accidents, and he has to think He wanted to exchange his population for food with his family. He also knew that this was to quench his thirst by drinking doves, but he really couldn't think of a way.

It was Gao Feng who shouldered the responsibility of providing food for the Tianzhao tribe. When Gao Feng was also in short supply of food, he supplied a large amount of food to the Tianzhao tribe. This made him feel extremely guilty. He looked like a blood-sucking parasite clinging to Gao Feng. .

Although Tianzhao didn't want to do this, he had to do it. He had to grit his teeth and persist when he said he wanted to get his rights back. Otherwise, he would lose even his final dignity. But after all, he is just a mediocre leader. , before the rise of Gaofeng, the Black Claw tribe could only maintain its status under his leadership and could not develop, let alone experience the ups and downs. Now it is naturally impossible to surpass Gaofeng's achievements.

This made Tianzhao fall into deep self-blame for a time. Is he really not the material? After careful calculation, it seems that he really didn't give anything to Gao Feng. Even if he made up his mind and gave Gao Feng the awakening potion, he still ended up taking it in his own stomach.

The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became. Tianzhao simply stopped thinking about it and just turned around and returned to his residence. As usual, I hide in a corner and regret in the name of seclusion.

Suddenly there was a noise, and a strange thing like a long loaf of bread was floating towards this side from a distance. Seeing this thing, Tianzhao's annoyance turned into worry again. In the end, Gao Feng did not listen to his warning and walked away. Once word of the roads connecting the upper and lower parts of the world reaches the ears of the family, there may be another catastrophe.

The appearance of the float made the tribesmen working below utter exclamations and noises, but they did not run around crying for their parents like before. They just sighed purely because they knew that this magical thing was sent by the great elder.

After passing thousands of heads, the float smoothly arrived in front of the wall and landed. The proud second elder walked up from the float with a big belly, taking square steps, and nodded reservedly to the surrounding people with adoring eyes, just like The emperor stepped down from his chariot and looked up to see Tianzhao with a gloomy face. The second elder suddenly shrunk his neck like a quail caught in the rain, ran up from below with small steps, and saluted to Tianzhao nervously.

"Have you seen him?"

Tianzhao didn't look at the two elders who were arrogant in front of them, but just stared at the seven or eight soldiers wearing tight-fitting military uniforms and carrying rifles carrying long boxes from the float. The boxes were made of silver-white metal, like mirrors. , reflected the dazzling light, but made his heart even more gloomy. It was this month's ration, the ration to support the 65,000 people under Tianzhao's command.

"Still refuses to see me. This is the third time. I'll try again next month..."

The second elder with small eyes blinked helplessly and said with a wry smile. It had been three months since he last saw the peak, but he still couldn't get close to the peak, and he had to cover a lot of distance back and forth. , all worked for nothing.

"Forget it, if you don't see me, you'll see me. How's it going in the Eastern Wilderness? Isn't there any news yet?"

Gao Feng's unwillingness to see the second elder means that he does not want to accept contact from Tianzhao. Whether it is good intentions or otherwise, he does not want to have contact with Tianzhao anymore. Even if Tianzhao feels guilty, Gao Feng does not want to know. He just ignores it, making it impossible for people to start. .

When the second elder heard the words "Eastern Wilderness", he knew that Tianzhao still cared about Gaofeng.

"The Eastern Wilderness is now in a confrontation stage. The remaining tribes and the Desolate People were divided into two camps, each of which was hostile, but both lacked food, so there will be no movement for the time being. The three tribe leaders of the Desolate People who captured Miss Luo Xing were , respectively, Yuntu, Yunhuang, and Yunma, all of which are Xianfeng Jialuo..."

"Huh? Three Xianfeng Jialuo would actually embarrass a woman?"

Hearing this, Tianzhao's brows moved and his eyes became cold.

"Luo Xing did not walk alone. He was led by a pair of desolate slaves. The woman was a servant who usually served Luo Xing, and the man was her lover. They deliberately deceived Luo Xing into taking a detour to the eastern wilderness, and then betrayed her... ….”

The three months of exploration were not in vain. Whether it was the Tianzhao tribe or Gao Feng's subordinates, there were a large number of deserters who were determined to integrate themselves into the western wilderness. There was no problem in collecting intelligence in the eastern wilderness.

"Then what are you going to do? We are not familiar with the eastern wilderness. Should we contact the people from the eastern tribe first and ask them for help?"

The kidnapping of Luo Xing was an opportunity for Tianzhao to reconcile with Gao Feng. No matter how he and Gao Feng quarreled, they were just a family behind closed doors. However, if the Eastern Wilderness took action, it would be a challenge to the entire Western Wilderness, not to mention that Luo Xing was still his. daughter-in-law.

"I just can't understand what the Great Elder was thinking. He rode a monster all over the Western Wilderness in the first month. In the second month, he went underground and disappeared for a whole month. Now he stays in Stone Mountain to build Stone City. , doesn’t seem to care at all about Planet Earth…”
