Traveling through ancient times: Savages are hungry for food

Chapter 274 Arrival

The group continued to work on the road, but their speed was much slower.

Although there was no need to build roads in the past, people still had to rely on their shoulders and legs to walk, and it was not enough to rest for a long time, and it was also very tiring.

This way, although the speed is slower, it is much more relaxing. I can even work for a while in the evening.

After all, we have already set off a few days in advance this time. I don’t believe that we won’t be able to arrive after traveling day and night for half a month!

After all, road construction is not about making the road neat and clean, but just about removing all obstacles.

The remaining tree roots and other things will be dealt with when everyone returns.

As for the road, this alone is not enough.

Only when it's trampled on repeatedly does it become solid, and no grass or trees will grow there. Otherwise, why would Mr. Zhou say that there are no roads in the world, but when more people walk on them, they become roads.

What's more, if what Sang Tian said really happened in the future.

This road became a prosperous route to the trade center with a large flow of people.

Even laying bricks along the way is possible.

……

Spring is a time of vibrant scenery and clear skies. Especially in this ancient time when everything flourishes, petals fall in a riot of colour, and everything dances.

On the way here, I passed by a pear orchard.

However, the pear blossom season has just passed.

The branches of the forest were laden with green, young fruits. Cluster after cluster, their huddled clusters as delightful as the dense, plump stamens of flowers. Most of them hadn't even dropped their calyxes, tucked away at the end of the fruit.

The ground was covered with a blanket of snow-white feathers. It was a thick layer, the bottom layer already splattered into mud, becoming nutrients in the soil. The feathers in the middle had also turned yellow and curled, withered and desolate.

But what meets the eye is still pure white.

However, Sang Tian didn't really appreciate the scenery.

Just silently marked a place.

When the day comes, come and pick it full and clean!

Not only that, although the pear blossoms have fallen like broken jade, the apple blossoms are still in full bloom, with the tails as white as the moon and the heads slightly pink.

Although these apple trees are not clustered together, you can basically see one or two every few meters.

Sang Tian could only silently remember the location and wait for it to mature. Not only the flowers on the trees, but also the gourd flowers on the ground were in full bloom.

The wild strawberry is a small fruit that can be white, pink, or red. It is sweet and sour.

These flowers are almost everywhere in the mountains and fields.

It seems that there will be plenty of delicious food in May and June.

Whether it is used to make fruit wine, jam, preserved fruit, or candied haws, dried to make dried fruit tea, etc.

We also found a lot of edible vegetables along the way, such as lettuce, romaine lettuce, celery, garland chrysanthemum, etc.

There was nothing gained along the way, we were just rushing along.

……

Half a month later, the tribesmen arrived safely at the outskirts of the trading venue.

From a long distance away, you can hear the endless conversations in the trading area and the smoke from the campfire.

This spring trade fair is indeed different! It's bustling with activity, much more lively than the sluggish autumn trade fair.

……

Inside the trading venue.

The ancient savages had extremely keen perceptions.

They had already sensed a large group approaching, but it didn't sound like people walking. Where else could a tribe have so many people?

But it didn't sound like a beast tide. After all, the sound didn't sound like a ferocious beast galloping. But if I put my ear close, I could actually hear the sound of horses and beasts' hooves...

All the males in the arena were immediately alert. Several representatives from the trade fair organizers also rushed over and said to the two extremely fast and agile males beside them, "Hurry up and see what's going on!"

The two figures flashed by quickly, leaving a few afterimages. They soon disappeared from the spot where they were standing.

The two people who entered the forest held their breath, tried their best to hide their breath, and moved forward carefully.

Until they saw the source of the sound that puzzled and frightened them in the tree...

The two men's eyes widened, as if they had seen something more terrifying than a flood or a beast.

Soon, one of them stepped forward to report the news.

The wind and catkins under the tree had already sensed the presence of the two people.

"Chief, what should we do?"

"Don't worry about it. He's just a spy sent to see what's going on."

"Everyone cheer up, the chance to show your face has come again!"

……

"Look! It's the guy that Que just sent out. He's back!"

As the people got closer, everyone in the audience started asking serious questions one after another.

"What on earth is it?"

"Will it be dangerous?"

"Speak up, kid! Are you trying to drive us crazy?"

At this moment, the man's eyes were still slightly open, his mouth slightly open, and his eyes were dull.

I want to say it but I can’t, I don’t know where to start or how to describe it.

This situation was really frustrating, even Que's face became anxious.

"Organize it and tell us slowly. What exactly happened? Tell us what you saw."

The man in front of him took a few deep breaths before speaking.

"Que Wu, there's... no danger. They're from Tianlang. But... "

"So it's from Tianlang, then it's okay."

"But this noise doesn't seem right. How could it be this sound?"

"But what? You kid, tell me, I'm so anxious!"

The young face in front of him twisted again. As if to give up and go all out, he spoke quickly.

"But Tianlang and the others didn't walk here! They were carried here on horses and horse-like beasts!"

When the people around heard this, some burst out laughing, some frowned as if it was impossible, and some squinted their eyes and plotted secretly.

"Puchi! Hahahaha, you're making me laugh to death! Are you crazy? Why don't you just say you carried them here?"

"That's right, the horse beast has such a bad temper. Even from a distance away, it would still bar its teeth and kick at us with its hind legs raised. How could it even carry a member of the Tianlang tribe on its back?"

"That's just bullshit! Oh no, that's nonsense! How could such a thing be possible?"

"That's right, it's something I've never heard of or seen before! Are you dreaming or not?"

Seeing that they didn't believe him, the young boy scratched his head anxiously.

"It's true! I saw it with my own eyes! The males rode on the horses and horse-like beasts, while the females sat on wooden planks pulled behind them. There was a large circular wooden ring underneath the planks, and as the horses moved forward, the ring turned. The planks were piled high with goods.

The line was very long, probably about forty of these boards, and there were about one hundred and twenty people in total!"

The expressions of the people in the audience changed a lot.

My first reaction was still disbelief, and I looked at the young boy as if he were a fool.

It's clear that he looks anxious and sincere, and he doesn't seem to be lying... Could it be that what he said is true? Not a lie?

As soon as the idea came out, everyone's face became solemn.
