In the early morning, Chen Bei sat by the fire waiting for dawn.

That strange voice, as well as the instructions of the totem god in the dream, were all lingering in his mind.

He vaguely remembered that the Totem God refers to the north, a forest that he had never set foot on.

Is there something particularly important to the tribe?

Chen Bei frowned, thought for a while, and decided to go and investigate after dawn, otherwise he would always feel uncomfortable.

That night, nothing happened except for the heavy snow outside.

The next morning, the cloud woke up from his sleep, and the fire was still burning. Chen Bei was standing at the entrance of the cave, looking outside in a daze.

Yun stretched, stood up, walked to Chenbei, and said curiously: "Chief, what are you looking at?"

Chen Bei pointed to the thick branches that were crushed by heavy snow not far away and said, "See, the snow is getting heavier every year, which means that it is correct for us to let the hunting team train in winter hunting."

The cloud looked at the white patch outside and sighed: "Yes, winter is getting colder every year. If we still do not hunt in winter, we may not have enough food."

Chenbeidao: "Everything needs to be prepared for a few more things, fishing, planting, breeding, and hunting, and you can't leave it alone."

The two ate a little jerky meat, then covered the fire with snow, let it go completely, then carried the hunting tools and set off again.

"Chief, where are we going?"

“Go to the north.”

The two of them walked in the mountains and forests one after another, stepping on thick snow.

After walking for about two hours, the totem patterns on Chen Bei's face suddenly lit up slightly. At the same time, there was a sense in his heart, telling him to continue walking forward.

Not only him, but also clouds, the totem pattern automatically emerges and the heart is inducing.

The two followed the instructions of the totem and continued to move forward, and their steps involuntarily accelerated a little.

After walking for another hour, a valley appeared ahead, with mist swaying above the valley, which looked like a fairyland on earth.

"Moo!"

At this moment, a beast roar came from the valley. This time, the two of them heard it very clearly.

"Why is this so familiar? Have I heard it before?" Chen Bei vaguely guessed something, but he was not sure at all.

"You'll know when you go in and take a look."

Chenbei took the lead in walking into the valley, and clouds followed closely behind.

After walking into the valley, Chenbei discovered that there was a flowing stream in the valley. At the same time, he smelled a faint smell of sulfur.

The cloud reached into the stream and said in surprise: "Chief, the water is warm."

Chen Bei also put his hand into the water, and indeed felt a warm feeling. He nodded and said, "That's right, the water is indeed warm, this is the water flowing out of the hot spring."

Yun said excitedly: "I heard from the elders that there are some magical places in the mountains and forests that will emit hot water. The hottest water can even cook the meat. I thought the elders were telling stories, but I didn't expect them to be true."

"Go and take a look inside."

The two of them walked along the stream and continued into the valley.

Due to the hot spring water, there are still some green grass growing on both sides of the stream near the water, which has not been frozen to death by heavy snow.

After walking in the vast white forest for a long time, they suddenly saw the green and hot springs. Both of them were in a very good mood.

The valley was not very big. Not long after walking, Chenbei saw more than a dozen large beasts eating grass next to the stream ahead.

"rhino?"

Chen Bei finally knew what the totem instructions were. When he saw the rhino, he was shocked.

As we all know, rhinos cannot live in cold places, which is why the former Rhino tribes lost their war pets after climate change.

But now, in this snowy winter, Chenbei actually saw more than a dozen rhinos. Even by the hot spring, it was enough to subvert his perception.

Yun also looked at the group of rhinos curiously, and he asked in a low voice: "Chief, why do I feel that these prey are a little familiar, but I have never hunted before?"

Chenbeidao: "Think about the totem god."

Yun thought about it carefully, then widened his eyes and said, "These beasts look like the body of the totem god!"

However, Yun then felt that saying this was a blasphemy of the Totem God, and hurriedly repented in his heart. In the hearts of tribes, the Totem God is sacred, supreme, and cannot be blasphemed.

Chen Bei observed carefully and found that these rhinos were different from what he thought.

Although they all look like rhinos, these rhinos have black and thick hair that almost cover the whole body. They have horns on their heads, which are very long and sharp, which is not easy to mess with at first glance.

This feeling is like the difference between an ordinary yellow cow and a yak. ​​Although one has hairy skin, it is very smooth, while the other is covered with thick hair.

"Did these rhinos mutate in order to adapt to the cold environment?"

Chen Bei made such a guess in his mind, and the reliability of this guess is very high.

"Go, get close and take a look, try not to show hostility and be kind."

Chen Bei felt that these rhinos did not run away or attacked people, which meant that they were more friendly to themselves and the clouds.

He guessed that this should be the reason for the power of totem.

Just like the totem warriors of the insect tribe are born close to insects, and the totem warriors of the black snake tribe are born close to snakes, the totem warriors of the Mang tribe should also be close to rhinos.

The two gradually approached the rhino herd, and all the totem patterns on their bodies lit up, especially Chen Bei. A phantom of a flame rhino appeared behind him, silently staring at the rhino with thick hair.

Among these dozen rhinos, one is particularly large, more than three meters tall and five or six meters long. It is obviously the king of this group of rhinos, and other rhinos are gathered behind it.

The Rhino King stared at the flame rhino phantom behind Chen Bei, his eyes a little surprised and suspicious.

"Let's relax, we have no malice."

Chen Bei said as he slowly placed the spear in his hand on the ground to show his friendliness.

"Moo!"

The Rhino King whispered.

Unexpectedly, Chen Bei naturally understood what it meant, which should be the ability given to him by the totem.

The Rhino King was asking him who they were and why they appeared here.

Chenbeidao: "We are from the Mang tribe and found here according to the instructions of the totem."

The Rhino King actually nodded, indicating that he knew the Mang Tribe.

Then, each person and the rhino started to communicate so strangely.

The Rhino King told him that they should be the last few rhinos in this forest. Although they have thick hair and horns, they still have difficulty in survival.

The main reason is that rhinos are too large and have extremely scarce food in winter. They are not as good as wild animals like wild boars.

If they hadn't found this hot spring valley, they would have survived fewer or even completely disappeared.

The Rhino King also told Chen Bei that there was a brand in their bloodline, which was the totem brand of the Mang Tribe. This is why the rhino herd did not attack or escape when they saw the two.

"So, your ancestors should have left the Mang tribe during the time of climate change?"

The Rhino King nodded, this was the message that the imprint in his bloodline told it.

"Then are you willing to go back with us? The Mang tribe has been rebuilt now, and the Totem God is still there. We can provide you with plenty of food."

Chen Bei looked at the Rhino King with hope. Although the valley is very good, the food is still very scarce and he cannot supply so many rhinos to eat every day. Going back to the Mang tribe with him can make the rhino herd survive.

“Moo?”

The Rhino King cried out again, obviously hesitating, and it was asking, is there really enough food?

Chen Bei nodded affirmatively.

All the rhinos were staring at the rhino king with a gaze, waiting for it to make a decision.

The rhino king had a look of struggle in his eyes. Although there was a mark in his bloodline, can leaving this valley and going to an unknown place really allow the rhino herd to continue?

The wisdom of the Rhino King is not low. In fact, many beasts in the mountains and forests have very high wisdom, not even lower than that of humans, so it is not so easy for it to make such a major decision.

Chen Bei continued: "I believe you have also felt that winter is getting longer and colder. If you continue to stay in this small valley, food will only become increasingly scarce, and the population will be difficult to continue."

"But when we go back to the tribe, we can provide you with plenty of food and a place to keep warm in winter, which will make your tribe grow stronger and stronger!"

Chen Bei's words finally touched the Rhino King. The continuation of the population is what it cares most. It knows that Chen Bei is right. If they continue to stay here, they will sooner or later die due to food scarcity.

"Moo!"

Rhino King Chen Bei nodded and finally agreed to go back to the tribe with him.

The rhino herd also let out a cheerful roar, and obviously they had enough of it in this place.

Yun excitedly said to Chen Beidao: "Chief, will we also have war pets like other tribes in the future?"

Chen Bei glanced at the Rhino King, corrected him in time, and said, "I am comrades-in-arms, not war pets, they are our friends and relatives."

Yun also realized that he had said the wrong thing and immediately changed his words: "That's right, he is a comrade-in-arms."

The expression in the rhino king's eyes softened a little. It called out to Chenbei, indicating that he could leave. The rhino herd had nothing to clean up and left as soon as he left.

"Okay, let's go back to the tribe!"

Chen Bei and Yun walked in front, and the Rhino King walked behind with his rhino herd, and walked towards the Mang Tribe together.

After walking outside, Chenbei and Yun walked slowly because of the deep snow. The Rhino King thought they were walking slowly, so he asked them to go directly to their backs and carry them away.

Chen Bei was very excited. He originally thought that both sides were not familiar with them and that these rhinos were unwilling to carry them. Unexpectedly, there was such an unexpected surprise.

They took their rhino herds and traveled through the mountains and forests, and finally arrived at the Mang tribe.
