Grandma couldn't finish all the roast beef, so she gave some to the children who weren't full.

——This refers specifically to children who have not participated in hunting but have reached the age of 12 and whose parents no longer provide food and drink.

From that day on, Jin Mang and the others got on the grain truck again and started traveling.

The food intake of adults who have finished fasting is very terrible. Jin Mang watched Qing Feng and Qing Sui kill an entire cow, and two or three hours later they caught an antelope for extra food.

Jin Mang was a little surprised: "Those hoofed animals didn't lose weight?"

According to her idea, under the alternating severe high temperatures and continuous droughts and plagues, even if these hoofed animals would not be completely wiped out, they should not be as... strong as they are in front of them?

Those who knew it were wild, but those who didn’t knew it thought they were farmed for feed.

"As long as hoofed animals can survive, they will not lose weight." Grandma said: "After all, their food is forage. Although most of the vegetation has died after the drought, dry forage is also the ration of hoofed animals. Although the taste is not as good as fresh forage, it is still good.

But it’s enough.”

Over the next few days, they began to encounter groups of ungulates and other tribes.

On this day, just after crossing the plateau, Jin Mang and the others met a tribe.

Seeing that group of people, Jin Mang couldn't help but be startled. They were really too dark.

Although there is no white human being in Anze except her, there is no one who is black like this.

Moreover, I don’t know if she is overthinking it, but those people... seem to be thinner? They are also obviously shorter.

Seeing her surprise, Qingke on the side explained: "Those are the tribes on the sea."

"Tribes on the sea?" Jin Mang raised his eyebrows, "Are there other human tribes outside Mangchuan Ridge?"

"Yes." Chengshi interjected: "In addition to the sea, there are also human branches in the basin. There are no ferocious beasts in the basin, and the tribes on the sea will avoid fighting with sea beasts, so we humans in Mangchuan Ridge are the strongest

of."

Landuo rolled her eyes at him, "Third brother, don't you be lying again, right?"

Cheng Shi is a very lively and fun-loving child. He always likes to tease his younger brothers and sisters. Some time ago, he even lied to them seriously that he had dug fish in the soil.

"What your third brother said is true." Lu Kui explained: "The tribes in the basin are indeed weak. They are at ease all year round and are interested in catching rabbits and chickens every day, so their strength is naturally not much better. In fact, the tribes on the sea are

What's worse, they live on islands and usually feed on fish, shrimp and shellfish. But because of this, they have excellent water quality and are also very good at catching fish and shrimp."

"If the second brother says so, I will believe you for the time being." Lan Duo snorted at Cheng Shi.

Jin Mang thought thoughtfully, "Those tribes on the sea seem to be wary of looking at us?"

Hearing this, the expressions of the older children were a little embarrassed.

Lu Kui scratched his face and said: "Our tribe in Mangchuan Ridge does not have a good reputation among the other two tribes. After all, we have a cannibal tribe there. If those crazy guys can't catch orphans, they will often catch them."

Eat the humans in the basin and the sea, after all, they are relatively weak."

Jin Mang: "..." So they are... notorious?

As we get closer to Anze, the temperature gradually rises. Almost every day we walk, it gets hotter by two to three degrees.

Jin Mang wiped the sweat from her forehead and panted: "When will this weather get better?" She estimated that the temperature would be close to 60 degrees by now.

The bottle of tree water stored in the bamboo tube was already a little hot at the entrance. Jin Mang's skin was now red and red, and it looked like he was sunburned. Although the skin color of the others did not change, they were obviously peeling.

"It will be fine when we arrive in Anze." Lan Cao counted the water in the grain truck and shouted to Lan Ya: "Uncle, there are 62 bamboo tubes of water left in total."

Lan Ya frowned, "We have to hurry up, the remaining water will last for another three days."

There is nothing that can be done about it. As the temperature rises, their demand for water begins to rise sharply. If they don't drink water, it is no longer a problem of dry mouth, but a dehydration shock.

This is because they can replenish some water and salt by eating the blood of their prey.

Although their heads were dizzy from the heat and they were shouting every step they took, they still had to speed up their pace.

During this period, Jin Mang discovered that the tribes on the sea had significantly better resistance to the sun than they did.

Because the temperature was lower at night, they slept during the day and traveled at night. Of course, the adults still had to work harder and complete the hunt during the day.

On this day, Jin Mang was sleeping with Lan Duo, Lan Yu and the others when suddenly, Lan Ying's panicked voice suddenly rang out.

"Kui Kui! Kui Kui, what's wrong with you? Wake up quickly!"

Jin Mang and the others opened their eyes in a daze and saw Lan Ying holding Qing Kui and shaking her.

Qingyan hurried over, and her face turned ugly when she saw Qingkui's appearance, "It's because of the heat."

Jin Mang was the first to realize that Qing Kui was suffering from heat stroke.

Qingyan obviously knew how to deal with heatstroke. She took off Qingkui's clothes, then began to wipe her body with a wet cloth over and over again, and fed her a small amount of water.

"Mangmang, are you hot?" Qingsui looked at her worriedly.

Jin Mang shook his head. In her previous life, she was not afraid of the cold in winter or the heat in summer. She could exercise for at least four hours a day regardless of the cold or heat. She was called a physical monster. She would be hot again and uncomfortable again, but

She really didn't feel like she was going to suffer from heat stroke.

A group of younger children were all asked similar questions.

Jin Mang took a look at Qingkui's current situation and felt that something was not good. You must know that the most important thing after heat stroke is to cool down. In modern times, people would definitely be moved to air-conditioned rooms or under fans, but they did not have this condition this time.

"That..." At this moment, a hesitant voice suddenly remembered.

Everyone was startled and turned their heads to look.

They didn't notice the stranger approaching!

When they looked around, they found that the person coming was the chief of the maritime tribe who had always been wary of them.

Haiying was stared at by so many pairs of eyes. He couldn't help but swallow nervously, and said with some stuttering: "We have medicated oil over there that can quickly cool down. Do you want to try it on this child?"

Um?

Lan Ya narrowed his eyes and looked at the other person for a moment, then nodded and said, "Thank you then."

Haiying breathed a sigh of relief and quickly called for someone to bring the medicinal oil.

Lan Yu asked Chimei in a low voice: "Aren't they afraid of us? Why are they so kind-hearted all of a sudden?"

Chimei replied in a low voice: "They are seeking shelter. Most of the human branches on the sea and in the basin do not have the strength to hunt ferocious beasts independently. In order to protect themselves, some smart people will rely on the powerful tribes in Mangchuan Ridge."

"This way, they must have confirmed that we are not cannibals."
