Chapter 23 Iron Ore

Although Wang Ruoyi didn't accept all what Duan Mo said like Zhu Xingxing, she didn't be able to see through Duan Mo's blowing. It is true that the pig crocodile was killed by Duan Mo, but the process was embarrassing, and it was not as calm and chic as Duan Mo said.

Coupled with the precise location and sturdy structure of this hut, Wang Ruoyi already glanced at Duan Mogao, and after Duan Mo's flickering, she believed Duan Mo's words for seven points.

After Duan Mo said these words, he pretended to sigh again: "Alas, a mere pig and crocodile is really not my opponent, you two follow me, you can be regarded as finding the right person." ”

"Then you're not hurt, are you?" Zhu Xingxing had forgotten the unpleasantness just now and asked with concern.

"Hey, how can it be hurt. Duan Mo waved his hand, "In the future, these beasts had better avoid me, otherwise I will see them once and kill them once, and our rations will be lost." ”

As he was talking, there was a sudden sound of "cooing" outside the door of the wooden house, Duan Mo was startled, and hurriedly grabbed the spear.

"What's that?"

It was late at night, and the surrounding area was silent, and the sudden screams were indeed a little scary.

But Zhu Xingxing said unhurriedly: "Don't panic, it's Xiaolu." ”

"What's Little Green?" Duan Mo asked.

Zhu Xingxing didn't answer, got up and opened the door of the wooden house, only to see two dodos standing outside the door, one of which Duan Mo had helped Zhu Xingxing tame before, while the other Duan Mo had never seen it.

"While you were out hunting, I tamed another dodo. Zhu Xingxing smiled slightly and hugged the two dodos, "One of them is called Xiaohong, and the other is called Xiaolu." ”

Duan Mo was slightly embarrassed, his nervous style formed a strong contrast with the majesty he bragged about just now. He cleared his throat and pretended to be calm, "It seems that you are already familiar with the art of taming beasts." ”

Before Zhu Xingxing could answer, Wang Ruoyi said, "This dodo...... Why aren't you afraid of people?"

Duan Mo explained: "I forgot to introduce to you just now, Zhu Xingxing's profession is a beast trainer, and he can tame animals. Both dodos are now her pets. ”

Wang Ruoyi watched the dodo lying quietly in Zhu Xingxing's arms, and praised sincerely: "I didn't expect this sister to have such ability, it's really amazing." ”

Women naturally like to praise, Wang Ruoyi's praise made Zhu Xingxing temporarily let go of her hostility, she stroked the dodo's furry head and said, "Actually, it's nothing...... A dodo, even if tamed, is not of much use. ”

"Don't say that, I'm waiting for you to tame the T-Rex. Duan Mo said half-jokingly.

Now Zhu Xingxing was a little embarrassed, her face was slightly red, "Where can I have such a powerful ......?"

"Actually, it's not too difficult...... Duan Mo suddenly said with a straight face: "When I find the iron ore and make metal equipment, I should be able to subdue the small carnivorous dinosaur...... When the time comes, you can rely on small dinosaurs to subdue medium-sized dinosaurs, and if you go step by step, you may be able to tame a Tyrannosaurus rex. ”

"What are you talking about?iron ore?" Wang Ruoyi suddenly spoke, interrupting Duan Mo's words. "Can you make iron?"

"That's right...... What's wrong?" Duan Mo looked puzzled, "I'm a researcher, a profession that masters science and technology, and I've already unlocked the technology of ironmaking, but I haven't found iron ore yet. ”

Wang Ruoyi's expression at this time was even more surprised than when he saw this wooden house. She is a smart person, and naturally knows how important iron tools are to their survival, and more importantly, ......

"I've seen iron ore. Wang Ruoyi said slowly.

"Really?" Duan Mo jumped up directly, Wang Ruoyi's words were like a blockbuster, which made him and Zhu Xingxing's spirits tense for a moment.

"Before you met me, I had been wandering in the jungle in the southern part of the island, and directly south of the island there was a hill with some golden stones scattered on it, which should be the iron ore you were looking for. Wang Ruoyi said quickly.

"That'...... How far is that mountain from here?Are there any ferocious beasts nearby?" Duan Mo asked with a serious face.

Wang Ruoyi pondered for a moment, "If you start from here and go all the way to the south, you need to cross two large rivers and a grassland, and then you will see a mountain with lush vegetation, and at the highest point of the mountain is the location of the iron mine, and the whole journey will take a whole day. There are not many beasts on the road, but there are ...... near the mountains" Speaking of this, Wang Ruoyi showed a sad look on his face, "There are a lot of beasts near the mountains, and there are even groups of velociraptors, and I almost lost my life there." ”

Hearing this, Duan Mo seemed to be poured a basin of cold water head-on.

According to what Wang Ruoyi said, Duan Mo couldn't get there alive at allβ€”even if he was lucky enough to find iron ore, he wouldn't be able to bring them back. It's been a long journey, and the chances of accidents are too high.

Seeing that Duan Mo's eyes had lost their brilliance, Wang Ruoyi was relieved again: "However, apart from the velociraptor rex, there are no more terrifying animals there. Now that we have animal trainers here, we can tame some of the big herbivores, like the Triceratops, which are very good at dealing with velociraptors. ”

Duan Mo nodded, but he didn't relax much in his heart. He had also thought about taming the triceratops, a dinosaur known for its horns on its head and wide bone shield, and a well-known creature that only the most powerful Tyrannosaurus rex could use as food, and other small and medium-sized carnivores could not pose a threat to it.

However, this also means that the triceratops is extremely difficult to tame, and it takes a lot of effort to stun it. The creature weighs more than a ton, and its head is wrapped in hard bones, and it is impossible to stun it with a wooden stick.

Fortunately, Duan Mo's grinder has been unlocked, and it can create some anesthetics, if the anesthetic is applied to the arrows of the stone arrows, it can be made***, so that Duan Mo can stun the triceratops little by little from a distance......

But God knows how much it takes to stun such a huge animal, not to mention that although the triceratops eats grass, its combat ability is not inferior, even if it is singled out with a pig crocodile, it can firmly gain the upper hand, in case of an accident, Duan Mo can only be nailed to death by the horns of the triceratops......

"It's really not good, forget it......" Zhu Xingxing saw Duan Mo's brows tightened, and couldn't help but persuade: "We can't find iron ore, can't we live well?"

Duan Mo shook his head. Now that the number of people in the camp has increased to three, the demand for food has skyrocketed again, but Duan Mo is not lucky enough to be able to hunt a pig crocodile every time. Without better equipment support, Duan Mo would not be able to kill those large animals, and naturally he would not be able to find enough food. What's more, in Duan Mo's heart, he has always been thinking about the obelisk that towers in mid-air.

The obelisk, which emitted red light, must have hidden some secrets about the island, and Duan Mo had to go to the obelisk to find out. He would rather die in the belly of a beast than live on a desert island for the rest of his life.

In any case, he needed more sturdy weapons and armor, and more ferocious beasts as helpers, so after some thought, he decided.

"From now on, we will spend all our time preparing for the search for iron ore except for collecting food. First, we need to find enough black berries to make anesthetics, and second, we need to tame a triceratops and make as many weapons and armor as possible. It was a difficult journey and it was not destined to be safe, but we had no choice. ”

After Duan Mo's decision was made, the other two women naturally accepted it all. They all understood that Duan Mo was the master of this camp, and all the decisions he made were the same.

After making up his mind, Duan Mo also breathed a sigh of relief. Even if he did unfortunately die on the way to find iron ore, at least he died on the way to fight. As a human being, he never succumbed to nature, and always maintained the nobility and tenacity of human beings.

He lay on his back on the ground and pretended to be relaxed: "Okay, now that the goal has been set, you two should rest quickly, and we will act as soon as the morning dawns." ”

In the corner of the wooden house was a small thatched bed, on which Zhu Xingxing had been sleeping for the past few days. After some conversation just now, Zhu Xingxing's hostility towards Wang Ruoyi has eased a lot, she patted the animal skin on the bed, and said to Wang Ruoyi: "Let's two squeeze into the bed and sleep." ”

Wang Ruoyi was a little surprised, she glanced at Duan Mo lying on the wooden floor, obviously she didn't expect this man to be able to maintain his gentlemanly demeanor on a desert island.

When she met Duan Mo before, Wang Ruoyi had already sensed Duan Mo's restraint - of course Wang Ruoyi understood how attractive her figure was to men, and she also understood that Duan Mo was in control of his life and death at this time. So no matter what Duan Mo asked of her, she would not be surprised, let alone resist. But Duan Mo actually forcibly resisted his physical desires, and firmly guarded the moral bottom line of being a human being on this primitive desert island.

When morality and law collapsed, Duan Mo, as a man with absolute power, was able to achieve this level, which really made Wang Ruoyi a little impressed.
