The saint starts out by traveling around the world with a group of elves.

The commissions issued by the elves were very detailed. The encyclopedia that Chu Yi took out clearly marked what strange items were near the current location of the Elf Forest Tribe.

Therefore, there are rarely repeated commissions. It’s okay if they do occur. Just share them with everyone. Friendship comes first, competition comes second.

There is no limit on accepting ordinary commissions. You can accept as many as you want. However, since there is no limit on the number of people, after someone submits a commission, if the elves' needs are met, the corresponding bounties in the hands of the remaining people will disappear directly, so there is no point in accepting too many.

Of course, this problem does not exist now. After all, the only tribe that can participate in this winter bounty commission activity is the Stone Tribe.

Shitou and Xia Qian selected a bunch of common bounty orders, which they planned to distribute to the people in the Shi tribe. Among them were items like black crystal stones and three-eyed bird tail feathers, which were rare but could be picked up on the roadside or in trees if one was lucky.

The rewards are also very generous, and when the Stone Tribe goes out hunting or gathering, they can search appropriately.

Shitou and Xia Qian set out to hunt. The falling snow did not stop their passion for hunting, and the elves began to get busy. However, not all elves wanted to personally participate in this winter fashion design competition. It was also nice to watch the fun.

For example, for some little kids led by Sword Saint Silin, it is a little difficult to calm down and knit sweaters. They prefer riding on the sled pulled by Xiao Hei rather than knitting sweaters.

Xiao Hei has been really busy these days and is almost exhausted in the non-physical sense.

However, a quiet elf like little Arya is planning to sign up to try it out, and even Guy seems to have the same idea.

However, according to feedback from elves who are in the know, Guy is participating in the competition purely for the rewards. I wonder how many elves are envious of the first place reward in this competition.

A week passed by, and during this week, there were three consecutive days of heavy snow, but the weather was fine for the remaining four days. During this period, the Stone Tribe once again received a bounty order for a level 2 wild beast.

After completing this commission, the Stone Tribe’s food crisis has been truly overcome. If they eat sparingly, it won’t be too difficult to survive this winter.

However, this is not what the Stone Tribe witch and the stones are pursuing. How can they just barely get through it? Let’s set a small goal first: everyone in the Stone Tribe can have enough to eat every day this winter!

A lot of the ordinary bounty commissions issued by the elves have also been completed. Now the people of the Stone Tribe are eager to go out and try their luck every day. The names of the ordinary bounties are very ordinary, but the rewards are not ordinary at all.

Precious iron weapons, useful tools like skis, and even miscellaneous magical items such as seasonings, handicrafts, and homemade snacks.

The people of the Stone Tribe wanted each and every one of them.

Some people from the Stone Tribe even hoped that this winter could be longer. After all, Chu Yi had made it clear that this event was only open in winter.

This was really out of line. When Xia Qian heard someone from the Stone Tribe say this, she was completely confused. She could actually understand it in her heart, but it would take some time.

It seems that common sense that people in the wild world don't like winter is beginning to deviate.

However, where some are happy, others are sad. The Rope Tribe in the distance is the sad one. In the evening, the people of the Rope Tribe are sitting at the entrance of the cave, looking forward to it. They are very hungry and are waiting for the witch and the warriors to bring back food.

Some of the half-grown boys even felt their eyes glowing green.

Braving the wind and snow, the witch of the Rope Tribe came back and pushed away the stone slab blocking the entrance of the cave. His face was calm. Countless eager eyes were cast in the cave, and they all looked at the hands of the witch of the Rope Tribe.

There was no prey, and the witch of the Rope Tribe only had a long knife-like magic weapon in his hand, which he held tightly.

The witch of the Stone Tribe did not say anything, but walked into the cave in silence. He shook off the snow on his body, and his face and hands were a little red from the cold.

The people of the Rope Tribe realized something, but they still had some expectations and looked at the warriors following the witch.

The soldiers walked into the cave with their heads lowered. They also had varying degrees of frostbite on their bodies, but their hands were empty.

The atmosphere in the Rope Tribe's cave suddenly fell into a depression.

"Sheng Er, go to the warehouse and get some fruit to eat, and bring over a fatter beast."

The witch of the Rope Tribe spoke, and everyone looked at him in surprise. If there was no harvest, couldn't they consume the wild beast meat reserves in the tribe at will?

"witch?"

An elderly member of the Rope Tribe spoke up, intending to dissuade the witch of the Rope Tribe.

"Give some nourishment to the warriors and children. We will not return to the cave tomorrow. We plan to go hunting somewhere farther away."

The witch of the Rope Tribe had a calm expression, but after these words came out, everyone in the tribe became a little anxious. Living in the wild in this kind of weather is no different from committing suicide.

"Wu, no, it's too cold outside!"

"Yes, Wu, you can't live outside. You will freeze to death!"

The people of the Rope Tribe started to dissuade them. They were a little excited. The witch of the Rope Tribe did not say anything. He waited until the people in the tribe calmed down again before he spoke again calmly:

"Don't worry about where to live. We've already found one. You won't freeze to death."

"We will definitely be back in the evening on the second or third day."

The witch of the Stone Tribe was certain that the protection provided by the magic weapon could only last for three days. Although wild beasts were not active in winter, the witch of the Rope Tribe did not dare to bet on this probability.

He was not planning to go out hunting, but to borrow food from the distant Stone Tribe. Although the hope of borrowing food was slim, the witch of the Rope Tribe still wanted to give it a try.

As long as it is not a blizzard, you can go to the Stone Tribe on a snowy day and walk as fast as you can, starting from when the sun just rises and walking until when the sun sets.

If the wild beasts near the Stone Tribe are easier to hunt, the witch from the Rope Tribe plans to stay there for another day and return to the Rope Tribe on the third day. That way, even if he can't borrow food, maybe he can hunt some wild beasts, right?

The witch of the Rope Tribe comforted himself in this way in his heart, but he did not intend to tell the people of the Rope Tribe about this decision. To be honest, although the Rope Tribe had some connection with the Stone Tribe, people from the Stone Tribe came to exchange food with them a few months ago.

But the witch of the Rope Tribe himself did not have much confidence about borrowing grain. If the Rope Tribe was in trouble, would the Stone Tribe not necessarily be free of difficulties?

The witch of the Rope Tribe forced himself not to think about this, but if he told this to the people in the tribe, if he returned empty-handed, it would only further undermine the morale of the tribe.

So I'd better not say anything. Maybe I can bring back a surprise later?

The witch of the Rope Tribe sighed secretly, and without thinking any more, he set up a stone slab and began to roast hot berries for the children of the tribe.
