wild trail

Chapter 62 Nightmare
According to Kong Er's words, Wang Lang drew a rough map on the ground, marking the living places on the grassland and the living places on the lake side.

Pointing to the simple map on the ground, he said, "Kong Er, take a look. This is our tribe on the grassland. This is the east side. Can you roughly draw the location of the place you mentioned?"

Kong Er stared at the picture on the ground for a long time, and kept grabbing his messy hair. This kind of abstraction of three-dimensional space into a two-dimensional plane made him unable to understand what Wang Lang was painting for a while.

Looking at his tangled appearance, Wang Lang knew that he had taken it for granted. This kind of thing that modern people can understand at a glance is no different from the heavenly book in the eyes of these primitive people who don't even have words.

Wang Lang stroked his chin and thought about it, looked at the distance between the two residences on the map, clicked on the east side of the grassland residence and said: "For example, it takes us one day to get here from the grassland residence, what did you say? I can walk there in two days, so maybe it’s here?”

Kong Er seemed to understand what Wang Lang meant, looked at the map on the ground and said, "It seems to be here, but we came from the south when we came."

Wang Lang nodded. According to Kong Er, their migratory route should be from southeast to northwest. Looking at the map on the ground, Wang Lang moved the point representing the copper mine downwards, so that it can be viewed from the map. Starting from here is much closer than starting from the grassland.

But the scenery on the prairie is similar, if you don't follow the migration route of Kong Er and the others, you will easily miss the place.

Since it is possible to find copper mines on the grassland, Wang Lang does not intend to go into that seemingly dangerous jungle for the time being. After finding the copper mines, it is obviously necessary to make the tools and weapons of the tribe more advanced, and then enter this jungle. The safer way.

Wang Lang asked people to prepare food for the evening, and sat on a tree trunk by himself, thinking about which method would be better.

Looking at the map in front of him, Wang Lang scratched on the map with a branch.

Wang Lang felt that his head was so big that he looked at the messy map drawn by himself, and muttered to himself: "It is obviously unwise to go directly from here, and it would be a waste of time to go from the grassland. What if we go from here?"

Wang Lang used a wooden stick to tap the position above the place where the millet was written, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he said to himself, "I never thought Kong Yi and those egg thieves were scammers. If you walk from here to the place where you meet them It will take about a day to find the place, and then follow their migration route from here to find it. If you are lucky, you should be able to find it in three or four days."

After making a plan, Wang Lang was in a good mood, and even ate a few more bowls of rice than usual at dinner.

After dinner, Wang Lang said to everyone: "Tomorrow, the men and I will go to the place Kong Er mentioned, and the women will stay here."

When they heard the news, people were very surprised and wondered why Wang Lang was in such a hurry.

The tree bark, who usually has no sense of presence, scratched his hair and asked, "Don't we need to tell the people on the grassland?"

Wang Lang shook his head and said, "No, we should be back in a few days. Nothing should happen in these few days."

Huo asked suspiciously, "Why are we in such a hurry to find those things?"

"Without those metals, we can't do many things. Although the tribe is not afraid of most wild beasts now, we still don't have the ability to fully protect ourselves against the same kind. We must become stronger as soon as possible." Wang Lang said seriously.

People thought that their tribe was already very powerful, and they didn't understand Wang Lang's worrying thoughts. Seeing that Wang Lang's attitude was so firm, people didn't say much.

Since you want to look for it, let's look for it, and it's only a few days out. People already have enough experience in living on the wild grassland, and there is nothing to worry about in terms of safety.

Wang Lang had a dream that night. He dreamed that he returned to the original world. He returned to his home naked and unkempt. Hugging together and crying bitterly, just when Wang Lang was about to tell his parents about his bizarre experience, suddenly a dark vortex appeared behind him, and he was sucked in by the powerful suction of that vortex, but this force was only for I have an effect, and everything around me is motionless. Wang Lang panicked and tried to grab everything he could, but he couldn't catch anything. The desperate Wang Lang thought of his parents, why didn't they come to save him .

Wang Lang looked in the direction where his parents were, and there were no longer his parents standing there, but two terrifying monsters like ghosts, pounced on him with their bloody mouths wide open.

"Help!" Wang Lang wanted to shout, but he couldn't make any sound.

"Lang, Lang, what's wrong with you, wake up!" People looked at Wang Lang, who was sweating profusely, struggling violently, and were at a loss for a while.

Wang Lang was shaken violently by the people, woke up from the nightmare, slowly opened his eyes, looked at the people around him, his consciousness gradually became clear, and realized that he just had a dream.

Wiping the sweat off his forehead, he said slowly, "What are you all doing here?"

"We were scared to death just now. We called you for a long time, but you didn't respond. If something happens to you, our tribe will be finished." Huo said with some fear.

The experience just now made people truly realize how important Wang Lang, the patriarch, was to them. Huo secretly made up his mind that even if he risked his life, nothing would happen to Wang Lang.

Wang Lang looked at the sky and found that the sun was already high. Looking at the people who were still in shock, he smiled: "Don't worry, I just had a terrible dream."

After appeasing everyone, after breakfast, the six men took food and weapons and rowed upstream on two rafts to where they met Kong Yi and the others.

Sitting and standing on the raft, Wang Lang looked at the receding wall, recalled the terrible nightmare, and muttered to himself: "Whether this is a blessing or a curse, is my decision wrong?"
