Chapter Thirty-Six: Returning Home with Difficulty
"Have you ever seen an obelisk?" Qin Feng asked.
Duan Mo nodded, "I've seen a red one." What does this have to do with the supply crates?"
"Every once in a while, a pillar of light would descend from the island, and in the pillar of light a small obelisk would fall from the sky, and when this little obelisk was opened, there would be various things inside. Qin Feng replied, "I call these small obelisks supply boxes, but supply boxes often fall into dangerous areas and are difficult to reach. ”
Duan Mo looked at the crossbow arrow in Qin Feng's hand and was full of envy. At the same time, he also secretly made up his mind that if he could see the supply box in the future, he would go and get the equipment even if he said anything.
"Since you're looking for iron ore, why don't you let me take you there. Qin Feng continued: "I'm quite familiar with this place, there is a gentle slope not far ahead, and you can reach the top of the mountain. ”
Duan Mo was overjoyed, and of course he agreed. He briefly disposed of the five velociraptors on the ground, peeled off the skin and flesh and put them in his pocket, took Qiuqiu and Wuqi, and headed towards the top of the mountain under the leadership of Qin Feng.
Qin Feng was really familiar with the terrain here, and it didn't take long for him to take Duan Mo to a gentle slope, leading straight to the top of the mountain.
At this time, the iron ore was already one step away from Duan Mo, he was full of excitement, and his tired body was full of strength again.
The surrounding vegetation became even more sparse, and the sunlight shone unscrupulously on Duan Mo's body, quickly drying up the water in his body, but at this time, nothing could stop Duan Mo's pace.
Fortunately, the rest of the journey was safe, and there were no more terrible creatures. Duan Mo walked to the top of the mountain step by step, and finally touched the shining ores with his own hands.
The surface of these ores was extremely smooth, and when he got closer, he could smell a strong smell of iron, Duan Mo stopped talking nonsense, and directly took out a stone pickaxe and began to smash these ores,
Qin Feng wasn't too fanatical about these ores, he took advantage of Duan Mo's mining ore and slipped to Wuqi and Qiuqiu's side.
Obviously, Qin Feng was very interested in these two dinosaurs, and at first he didn't dare to get too close, but when he found out that Wu Qi and Qiuqiu would not hurt him, he became unscrupulous. He slapped the ball's sturdy body, like a wrangler admiring his horse. Qiuqiu was very dissatisfied with this rude behavior, but without Duan Mo's order, it could only endure it.
These iron ores were not as hard as they imagined, once a crack was cracked, the ore could easily shatter into small pieces, and Duan Mo packed these small pieces of ore into a big bag on the back of the ball one by one, ready to take them back for refining.
The only drawback of these ores is that they are too heavy, and the weight-bearing capacity of the Triceratops ball has been greatly tested, and before Duan Mo can install a few pieces of ore, the ball begins to snort.
Fortunately, Wu Xiao was still carrying another big bag, and after Duan Mo put a few pieces of ore into Wu Hao's pocket, Wu Hu was also a little unable to hold on, and Duan Mo had only mined a whole piece of iron ore at this time.
Duan Mo looked at the mountains of iron ore, and felt a little unwilling in his heart. He has trekked for so long and encountered many dangers, but he can only bring back a piece of iron ore, which is a bit too much of a loss, but he has nothing to do, so he can only think about letting Zhu Xingxing tame a few more triceratops next time......
Now that his goal had been achieved, Duan Mo naturally didn't want to continue to stay in this dangerous area, he greeted Qin Feng and prepared to sail back.
Qin Feng had been paying attention to the two dinosaurs since just now, and when he found out that Qiuqiu and Wuqi could also load heavy objects in addition to fighting, the greedy look in his eyes became even more obvious.
Duan Mo was keenly aware of this subtle emotion, but now was definitely not the time to turn his face with Qin Feng, besides, he didn't know Qin Feng's true purpose - if he was just greedy for dinosaurs, he could completely let Zhu Xingxing tame a few more and let him use them, anyway, after having the first experience, it would be much easier to tame dinosaurs again.
After all, if he wanted to survive on the island, Duan Mo still had to unite as many humans as possible.
Qin Feng didn't show anything unusual in other aspects, he quickly led Duan Mo to find his way down the mountain, but the way back was not as good as when he came - Qiuqiu and Wuqi were carrying heavy iron ore on their bodies, and they moved very slowly.
Duan Mo had nothing to do, so he could only be patient and slowly squirm with the two dinosaurs. But when Qin Feng saw this, he was a little anxious.
"We must not spend the night in the mountains. Qin Feng frowned and said, "Before dark, we have to leave this mountain. ”
"Why?" Duan Mo asked.
"In the evening, the predators of the mountains come out. They hide from the sun during the day and only come out in the evening to feed. Qin Feng replied, "Moreover, do you still have water on your body?"
This sentence reminded Duan Mo that after tossing and turning on the mountain for most of the day, Duan Mo had already drunk all the water in the water bag. The vegetation on the mountain was scarce, the sunlight was shining directly on Duan Mo's body, and Duan Mo had been doing physical work all day, and the consumption of water was even greater, and he was already thirsty at this time.
"There is no water source in the mountains, so we have to go to the river at the foot of the mountain to get water. Qin Feng said expressionlessly. It could be seen that he was already thirsty, his lips were chapped and white, and he had a little trouble speaking.
Duan Mo thought about it, he really didn't see a small river or stream along the way, but it was still far from the river at the foot of the mountain, and the dense forests along the way were very inconvenient, and it would take at least two hours to reach the foot of the mountain.
And now with Qiuqiu and Wuqi, it even takes four hours to complete this journey......
"Why don't we go down the mountain first and let these two dragons wait here?" Qin Feng put forward.
"No, I can't. Duan Mo immediately refused, "Didn't you say that there will be predators on the top of the mountain?
These two dinosaurs were Duan Mo's heart, and Duan Mo would rather be injured himself than let the two dinosaurs be injured.
