Chapter 585 - Small is Smaller, Big is Bigger, Giant is Bigger
The main reason why "terracotta" is called terracotta is that the land here is a bright reddish-brown color.
Moreover, the terrain is open and flat, all of them are endless plains, and the environment is better than the "land without three feet flat" in the coastal zone, so much so that I don't know where it has gone.
The red color of the soil is naturally caused by the abundance of iron oxide in the soil layer.
As soon as the explorers in the Yanshi caravan arrived, they found that the hematite reserves buried under the terracotta plain were amazingly rich!
It's just that because the surface soil layer is too thick and the veins are too deeply buried, it is difficult to mine, but the countries on the terracotta plain are extremely short of iron tools, so they can only buy them from other regions.
But for [Tiangongmen], is it a problem that the veins are too deep?
On the grounds of cultivating wasteland and growing grain, from the hands of the most powerful Terran country on the terracotta plain, the "Red Plains Country".
After taking a piece of bare red earth wasteland that didn't even grow grass at the price of cabbage, the earthmasons who arrived through the teleportation array immediately took a look down a shaft and went deep into the mine.
After building an underground space underground, the Plane Gate was activated, and a torrent of intelligent machines and giant worker ant legions poured into the world of Etes...... Then there was nothing to do with the Yanshi Shang clan.
Just build some buildings on the surface to cover the ventilation shafts, and plant some crops to cover people's eyes.
Give the Construct Machines and the Giant Worker Ants a little more time, they can hollow out the entire terracotta underground along the veins!
With the Wuji system under his hands, Bai Yuqi, who made a fortune in a muffled voice, suddenly discovered a peculiar phenomenon in the Great Wilderness Realm, that is, it seemed to be a little "unnatural".
The "unnatural" here certainly does not mean that the natural environment of the Great Wilderness is bad.
On the contrary, the natural environment of the Great Wilderness Realm, nourished by the almost oversaturated natural energy, is simply so good that it explodes.
Not only is it rich in mineral resources, there are many kinds of animals and plants, but the size of the population is almost overflowing.
Not to mention the world of Etes, even the natural environment of the Tang Dynasty is barren like the Gobi Desert compared to the Great Wilderness Realm.
But it is this kind of excessive prosperity that inexplicably makes Bai Yuqi feel a little "fake", as if it was artificially bred and bred!
Although this was just a vague suspicion on Bai Yuqi's part, judging from the types and forms of creatures in the Great Wilderness Realm, this world inexplicably gave him a strange sense of familiarity......
The human race in the Great Wilderness Realm can be roughly divided into three types: "human, humanoid, and inhuman".
According to the size of the human race, it is divided into three categories: "villain, human, and adult", and among the three categories, it can be divided into different levels according to height.
For example, the three small races of "Jingren, Zhou Rao, and Jiao Rao" on the original Nanyun Island are only 27cm, 45cm, and 54cm tall respectively.
Don't look at the height of the Jingren people, but they are also the "little people" among the "human beings", not some other strange race, and their appearance, limbs, and body shape are exactly the same as human beings except for the size.
But after arriving in Xiyun Basket, as Bai Yuqi learned more about the Great Wilderness Realm, he knew ...... Do you think Yasuto is small enough?
There are even smaller ones in this great wilderness!
It is said that there are Shiba people, mushroom people and mushroom people in the south, the tallest Zhi people are only three inches, that is, 9 centimeters, and the shortest mushroom people are only one inch, that is, 3 centimeters......
Although the name is related to mushrooms, people do not describe their height as the size of mushrooms that emerge after the rain.
And he is good at growing mycelium, cultivating all kinds of mushrooms, and even the house is made of mushrooms, and the clothes are woven with mycelium.
Bai Yuqi suspected that there might be something smaller, but it was too small to see, so it was not discovered by the natives of the Great Wilderness.
If there are smaller ones, there will be bigger ones!
The three clans of "long strands, long arms, and heels" on Beiyun Continent are strictly speaking only the long human race among the "alien humans".
With a height of three meters, they are not even considered "Adult Race", let alone "Giant Race".
In the north of this Xiyun Basket, there is a real three-foot tall human race.
Like the Lilliputies, in addition to their huge size, their appearance, limbs, and body shape are also exactly the same as those of humans.
It is said that among the three rafts of the Hokuriku, there are larger races of "Fengfeng, Kua'e, and Longbo", and their height is five, six, seven, and eight zhang, and ten zhang is also common.
In the far north, there are three clans of "Big Father, Flutter Father, and Bo Father", who are thirty feet tall!
In the north of the extreme north, there are also the three tribes of "Juyanman, Pangu Tartar, and Wulupan", no one knows how tall they are, but I have heard that they have occasionally seen their lower body, or a knee, or even just an ankle, under the clouds...... Well, just listen to it as a myth!
In general, it is bigger the further north you go, and smaller the further south you go.
If it was just the size of the human race, Bai Yuqi would not feel "unnatural".
After all, in the knowledge system of the Arcane civilization, there are also mentions of various giants, titans and other races.
This is related to the plane environment, the plane environment of others is good, what can you do if you can grow so big?
But there are even more strange human races in the Great Wilderness Realm, for example, there are no less than dozens of "aliens" on this Xiyun Basket.
What a "drum-headed family", the head is as big as a fence, but the body is no different from ordinary people, and they have to support their chin with both hands when they walk, or they will fall down.
What else is there to "penetrate the chest", there is a big hole in the front and back of the two chest muscles, and two bamboos are usually inserted in the chest, mainly by helping people carry sedan chairs and carry things.
As for the "tumor-chested people" with bulging chests like toads, the "long-backed people" with camels on their backs, the "three-headed people" with three heads, the "three-body people" with three bodies, the "half-body people" with only half a body, the "three-eyed family" with three eyes, and the one-eyed people with one eye......
In Bai Yuqi's opinion, these were just deformed races, and they actually formed a race in this great wilderness realm.
It's not that one person has mutated, but the entire race looks like that, and the population seems to be quite large!
What's even more terrifying is that this physical deformity does not seem to affect their daily life.
Not only do people live well, but they also have a magical ability, which is obviously a bit abnormal.
Maybe the natives of the Great Wilderness Realm are well-informed, and at most they think that these aliens have strange appearances, and they don't think there's anything wrong.
However, Bai Yuqi, as an outsider, and also a time-traveler with the memories of later generations and the knowledge system of the arcane civilization, will inevitably think of one word: biological experiments!
This made Bai Yuqi think about it very carefully, if it is said that these strange-shaped human races are all species that have survived and multiplied in some kind of biological experiment?
Doesn't that mean that he has inadvertently broken into some kind of "sandbox testing ground" of higher existence?
