At first glance, this salt field looks like a snow field, and most of the ground is covered in white.

There are some sunken shallow craters in the ground, which are caused by the melting of snow after it has fallen.

On the snow-white ground, salt flowers emerged from the ground like corals everywhere. At the center of each salt flower, the color was dark or light, red or blue. At first glance, it seemed like a fairyland. However, people who know this place can't avoid it.

Although there is salt everywhere here, but the salt is poisonous, people who have eaten it, and animals who have licked it are all spared. Therefore, for a long time, this place has been recognized as a dangerous place. Anyone who goes in will die. Some people even say that this is the graveyard of salt beasts. Anyone who approaches here and violates their tombs will die. will be punished. This is a demonized area.

It was not until someone walked into this salt field and discovered the salt mine that the dead place came alive.

ka ka ka-

A subtle clack sound came from the sunken shallow pit.

Shao Xuan saw that an orange-yellow crystal column emerged from the shallow pit, and it looked like a crystal-like texture, crystal clear. The crystal column is like a seedling emerging from the ground, growing upward and bifurcating. As it grows upward, the surface of the crystal column also changes from transparent to translucent, and then covered with a layer of hoarfrost. When it grows to nearly half a person's height and stops growing upwards, the whole is already the same as the others on this salty land. The local salt flowers are almost the same, but the color is a little different, with a touch of orange.

This is just one of the salt flowers that "opened". There are other salt flowers emerging from the other sunken shallow pits. The colors are green, red, and even black.

Although such a scene is beautiful, it is associated with the legends here before, but it makes people who see it feel horrified.

"Let's go, just don't eat them." Zheng Luo said.

Stepping on the salt ground, I heard a clear click, which was the sound of the salt layer on the ground, much louder than the snow. Underfoot are large and small cracked salt crystals, in lumps and flakes. Large ones are trampled on small ones, and small ones become powder.

The team tried to walk on the higher ground, avoiding those sunken and shallow pits. The leather boots were soaked with water, and after drying, they would precipitate out salt. Those are also inedible and poisonous.

"There are footprints!" Dokang pointed in one direction.

The footprints left on the salt will remain for a while, and even if the temperature rises, they will not melt as quickly as snow.

"There are about 200 people, no more than 300, and the time left is not more than four days." Watsa is already familiar with this salt field and can roughly judge from the traces on the ground.

"It is estimated that they are a new group of people from the Liehu tribe. It doesn't look like they were left by the two tribes." Susha said after watching it.

The people of the fierce fox tribe will be more tidy when they leave, while the forest tribe is more messy than these, so these footprints will not be left by the two tribes.

"Don't rest tonight, keep going!" Zheng Luo shouted.

Although according to past habits, before meeting with the enemy, in order to maintain sufficient physical strength to meet the enemy, they will definitely stop to rest and repair, even if they were on the road a few days ago, they also stopped at night to rest, but after listening to Shao After Xuan's words, Zheng Luo decided to change his previous practice.

There is no hot broth, no rice porridge to warm the stomach, and when you are hungry, you can only eat the frozen hard jerky. All you can smell in the air is the salty smell of salt, and you can hear it in your ears. ,

In addition to the whistling of the wind, it was the sound of footsteps on the salty ground.

Fortunately, the wind was not strong this night, and there was no snow. Compared with the previous days, it was much calmer.

This kind of calmness can easily make people slack, but Zheng Luo kept urging, so that everyone's nerves have been tense, without complaining, they only know that it is good to listen to the leader in everything, and the leader will never harm them.

Meanwhile, among the salt mines.

Several people from the Fierc Fox Tribe and the Mori Tribe, who were wearing thick furs, were discussing in the salt cave.

This is the salt cave of the Liehu tribe.

The salt under the salt mine is layered, a layer of rock, a layer of salt mine, another layer of rock, and then another layer of salt mine. However, they like to continue digging down the first floor before they have finished mining. Not long ago, they finally dug something out, but they didn't expect it to be such a big surprise.

In the final consideration, they chose to be an alliance with the Sen tribe. Shanfeng's temperament is too strange, and the people of the fierce fox tribe despise them. The other is not far away, so after excluding these three, it is the forest tribe. Although the people of the forest tribe sometimes look arrogant, but when it comes to fire crystals, the people of the forest tribe will be smart and put away their arrogance temporarily.

At this time, the six high-level leaders of the two tribes gathered together, and among them, there were a few fire crystals with big eyes.

"This was dug out today, and there are more fire crystals below, but, the more you go down, the harder it is to dig, and it may not be able to be dug in thirty or fifty days. come here." said a man wearing brown animal skins, with loose hair and a rough face. This is the forest tribe.

"As far as we know, the people from Shanfeng are probably united with Yanjiao and Taihe, and they may come here to grab the mines. Although we recruited some people with salt, we must be on guard. The people from Yanjiao, But it's not so easy to kill." The leader of the fierce fox said.

"In such weather, they will come too?" The people of the forest tribe doubted.

"If they really came in the snowy day, they would definitely know the secret of Huo Jing!" The leader of the fierce fox showed ruthlessness on his face. They have already divided half of it to the Sen tribe, and it has been painful for a long time. If they are not defending the three tribes, why should they divide the benefits? ! They don't allow anyone to join in to share!

In this regard, the people of the forest tribe also think the same.

Guga-

A strange cry came from outside the cave, and the sound was flying towards this side.

A person from the forest tribe raised his hand, and a gray shadow snorted and stopped on his arm.

It was a bird that looked like a raptor, but was not very big.

The bird shook the fur on its body as if it was shivering, and then called to the Sen tribe man.

goog go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go

The face of the Sen tribe changed, "The people from Taihe have come to the salt mine, and now they are almost there. They really know the secret of Huojing!!"

"The people from Taihe have already come, and the people from Yanjiao must not be far away. It must be the people from Shanfeng who detected the fire crystal last time, so we joined them together. According to the time estimate, they will arrive at the salt mine the day after tomorrow." The leader of Liehu said after several calculations in his heart.

"The day after tomorrow?" The people of the forest tribe pondered, "Within three days, I am afraid that the sky will change, and the previous plans have to be changed."

Speaking of this fierce fox, people are also depressed. They had already arranged several plans and arranged for troops, but they were disturbed by sudden weather changes. The people of the forest tribe have always been very sensitive to weather changes. Changes in various grasses and trees in the mountains and forests infer changes in climate. If it is said that there will be changes in three days, or even more powerful, it will definitely happen.

"Reckless fighting may not be able to stop them, especially the arrogant people from Yanjiao." The leader of the fierce fox was estimating the impact that the three-party cooperation there could bring to them.

"How about that?" The Sen tribe asked with a frown.

A woman with long and narrow eyes who was sitting beside the leader of the fierce fox flashed with brilliance in her eyes, and smiled coquettishly, "It's not impossible."

The others all looked at the woman in unison.

The woman dressed in fiery red fur raised her hand and stroked a white fox in her arms, "The sky does change, but it won't change in three days. Within two days, there will be great changes!"

As if responding to the woman's words, the fox in her arms raised its head and purred.

"Two days? Are you sure? How do you know?" The people of the forest tribe doubted.

"You don't need to worry about how you know it, but I'm sure there will be a change within two days." The woman's tone was calm and she was confident in her words.

"Even if there is a change within two days, how can you solve it??"

"The solution is actually simple." The woman said calmly, "The sky is changing, and manpower cannot be stopped. Once it happens, you can only endure it, or find a place to hide. In the salt mine, the only place you can hide is. Salt cave."

"What do you mean..." Others have already understood something in their hearts. The salt mines are only those opened by their five tribes, and the place to hide is, of course, only the salt caves of their five tribes.

"But if there is no salt cave, you say, the people from Shanfeng, Yanjiao and Taihe are here. Once the sky changes, where can they avoid?"

"Destroy their salt cave!" The eyes of the others burst.

"The Taihe side will arrive the day after tomorrow as soon as possible. The Yanjiao and Shanfeng sides must be similar. We will destroy those salt caves tomorrow. When they come, we only need to guard our own caves, Yanjiao. The cave is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and they are blocked outside, under the weather, even if they want to destroy our salt cave, there is not so much time." The leader of Liehu said.

"Yes." The woman narrowed her eyes with a smile and nodded in agreement.

"It's just that the salt caves of their three tribes have been destroyed. How will the people you recruited be resettled?" asked the Sen tribe.

"Get out of the salt cave on your forest tribe's side, and let them go in and hide when the time comes. We will send some people on both sides to take care of it. The important thing is to keep it here," the woman said.

It is not impossible to temporarily give up their own salt cave. For the sake of Huojing, the people of the Sen tribe can temporarily put down the salt mine. "But what if the three tribes of Shanfeng and the others seize the salt cave over there?"

"What if we seize it? If we can really seize it, their casualties will not be small, so why should we be afraid?" the woman said. Three of the five salt caves were destroyed. They were heavily guarded here. Even if the last salt cave was seized, most of the people who died were temporary helpers they recruited with salt. The people of Liehu can also kill the fighting power of Shanfeng and their three tribes, why not do it?

The decision here was good, but they didn't know that there was such a person who played cards out of common sense and was rushing all night. (To be continued. "This text is provided by the Breaking Dawn Update Team @ch8296929 (Diandian Chinese Paper)")
