Chapter 106: Migration of the Horse Clan
Leaving the stronghold in the southern district, the team made a detour in the direction of the sugarcane forest, and along the way, the old men rushed out a banner with three big characters on the children's group. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info among them there are masters of needlework, and there are many who can write good words, and they use sheets to get out a children's regiment flag. The team walked very slowly, only walked more than 300 miles a day, stopped and stopped, and harmed various scenic spots along the way, the new slingshot invented by Xiaogang was made very delicate by the old men, and a large amount of game was hoked by them. Three days after the team set off, Zhuang Zhuang followed, and on the fifth day when he arrived at the sugarcane forest, Xi 13 also came, he went back to his home and delayed for three days, there is a magpie spirit lady at home, and it is also very important to cultivate good offspring.
After the mosquitoes in the sugarcane forest were strangled by the bee colony, the ecology of the area has changed a lot, there are obviously more rabbits and rats, some goats and wild boars also wander around, and there are bears who have visited the area. These bears were killed, the bear paws and bear biles were left, and an old man who was proficient in pharmacology helped make the bear paws, which did not taste very good but were very soft.
Qin Zhigang gave 200 catties of sausages to the uncles and uncles here, and the people who could guard the sugarcane here were all members of the Yizi team, all surnamed Qin, and it was also appropriate to prepare some emergency food for them. This thing can be stored for a long time when hung in a dry, cool and ventilated place, but the taste is salty, and without plastic wrap, you can only increase the amount of salt, which is also a helpless thing.
Everyone rested in the sugarcane forest for two days, mainly because the old men were very interested in the origin of this sugarcane. Under the beckoning of the slingshot, the small animals were completely unable to dodge and fell into the net, and the bears could not withstand the increasingly accurate volleys of the Yizi team.
Qin Zhigang told his uncles and uncles that the fur of these prey should be preserved, and they could be exchanged for money by pulling them back to the camp, and even these bones were good fertilizer, which was very useful if they were smashed into the land thrown under the sugar cane.
The old men also taught the Yizi team the art of making fur, but they demanded that the bear's paws be given to them in the future. Qin Zhigang was not embarrassed by his uncles and uncles, he promised to pay the money for the bear's paw, but in the future, the excess leaves of the sugarcane forest and the rotten sugarcane would have to be thrown out to feed the beasts, so that there would be more prey. Don't take too much care of some of the newly extended sugarcane forests, let the beasts spoil it, the water is clear, there are no fish, and they should be a little sweet to remember, and set up more traps around the main production area to make the beasts afraid, so as to reduce the loss of the main production area.
The uncles and uncles of the Yizi team were embarrassed, they had set up five outposts around this huge sugarcane forest, the sugarcane forest area was too large or there were a lot of sugarcane trampled by wild beasts, and even the bee swarm patrolled could not contain it, they only understood that there were so many tricks when they heard Xiao Gang say this, and Xiao Gang didn't blame them at all, the uncles and uncles admired and worshiped Xiao Gang. Now everyone believes even more in what the stepfather said, Xiao Gang is the top secret of the family, and it is the strongest confidence of the family, the future of the entire family and even the entire Great Qin.
Leaving the sugarcane forest and going to the big cave, mainly for the fish here, the old man's slingshots didn't work, Zhuang Zhuang didn't wait for Qin Zhigang to give an order and did it himself, it should be said that he moved the force field field. The old men laughed, and the Yizi team guarding the cave watched in amazement as the old men took the fish from the air like clubs, one after another.
The old men put the big whitebait they had picked into the water tank in the hole, and put the small ones back, and in a short time they got hundreds of catties of whitebait, and quickly cooked the fish soup with the sauce and pickles they brought.
After staying in the cave for another two days, Qin Zhigang's children's convoy continued to set off, pickling all the whitebait they caught when they left, waiting to take them away when they returned. Along the way, there were many beasts that were plagued by stop-and-go, and none of them were encountered, and the beasts that became essences had long been far away from the road, and there were often majestic surging demons on the road, and the beasts of the essence had a much better IQ, and they had long been away from the place of right and wrong.
When the old men came to the volcanic area, they couldn't stand the hot and humid climate, so Qin Zhigang slept at the outpost post on the outskirts of the volcanic area, and took the old men into the volcanic area in the morning to plague the beasts. On the fifth day of coming here, the demon clan received a message from the flying birds that Qin Tiezui had led the horses to within a thousand miles to the northwest and was winding along the valley, and the horses were in urgent need of food and grass rescue. The demon clan who stayed behind didn't dare to report to Qin Zhigang directly, so they went to find Zhuang Zhuang with the bird spirit that passed the message, and Zhuang Zhuang didn't dare to be careless and immediately gave it to Qin Zhigang.
Qin Zhigang was originally lazy to come over to play, but now he didn't dare to play arbitrarily, so he gave Zhuang Zhuang's order; beckoned the long-necked dragon to go out of the water to open the way, transport grain and grass, go as far as he could in half a day, and return immediately after putting down the supplies; mobilize all the idle personnel of the human race and the demon race, transfer supplies and rescue horses from the place where the long-necked dragon put down the supplies, and build a post at a distance of 100 miles to stock up on drinking water.
The huge body of the long-necked dragon climbed up from the lake, and there were nearly two hundred of them except for the old, weak, sick, disabled and pregnant, and with the help of the demon clan, a large number of supplies were put on their backs and began to move forward. Cheng Jing took the lead in stepping on the uneven ground to squeeze the huge trees and overturn them, and the ones behind followed the path expelled from the front one by one.
At midday, I received a message from the birds, and at noon the last long-necked dragon carrying supplies went on the road, and the ground was trampled on by them very muddy and very strong, and the Terran captives wanted to use wooden planks to build up the road, but Zhuang Zhuang said: "No need to work in vain, the big guy with a long neck will come back, and when they return, as soon as the rain stops, they will use pure cement to pave the mud." ”
Qin Zhigang nodded to Zhuang Zhuang, he knew that cement could not be with mud, but now it was too late to wait for the arrival of sand and gravel, so Zhuang Zhuang arranged for people to strengthen the road on the right first, and then to strengthen the left after the solidification could be used.
The distance of thousands of miles took less than an hour, when Zhuang Zhuang appeared in the sky above the horses, Qin Zhigang was really shocked by such a scene, the dense horse circle below was running along the valley in many places like ants, and when he was tired, he stopped to climb the mountain to forage for food, and everywhere he could see was a herd of horses, and the place where the horses passed was not an inch of grass, and the dust covered the sky and the sun. The lakes and streams through which the horses passed had bottomed out, not clear, of course, but empty, and the ground was completely invisible in those dusty places, and only the sound of the horses moving rapidly in them could be judged.
Qin Zhigang gently patted the top of Zhuangzhuang's head twice with his small hand, and Zhuangzhuang willingly took him to continue to fly forward, this time the speed was very slow, Qin Zhigang also looked very carefully, the bark of some trees was gnawed off, and the vegetation was greatly damaged.
The further you go, the more alarming it becomes, these mortal horses of the demon clan are really extraordinary, and their food consumption should be four times higher than that of the horses fed by the human race, that is to say, the food consumption of these 300,000 demon clan's mortal horses is higher than that of the 1.5 million domestic horses raised by the human race. What Qin Zhigang didn't calculate was that the horses raised by the human race would eat a lot of grain, and the ordinary horses of these demon clans were not qualified to eat a lot of grain, and those who had eaten grass for a long time certainly had to eat more, and the bloodlines of the people were there, the nobles of the demon world. Alas, the number of these nobles is also bleak.
Finally, I saw the iron-billed crane advancing slowly one hundred and fifty miles away from the vanguard of the horse herd, and under the protection of a small group of demon clans, the team carrying a small amount of supplies stopped and stopped, and the gray-faced iron-billed cranes and Ying Wu kept talking to the demon clan.
Qin Zhigang giggled with laughter, Zhuang Zhuang also grinned, and after descending to the ground, he knew that the two old men were cheering up the demon clan around him, asking them to encourage those horses who couldn't walk, and told them that there was endless sweet water in front of them, endless grass, and high-end food made of grain, so that these nobles who didn't want to leave and wanted to wait for death on the spot could hold on a little longer. But this journey of no grass and no clean water has made these nobles who came out of the core of the demon clan desperate, and they feel that they have been deceived;
Everyone knows that domestic horses are human, and these noble bloodlines from the demon clan understand a lot of things, and now they don't want to leave when they are tired, and they want to die here.
After the demon clan greeted Zhuang Zhuang with the salute of the juniors, Zhuang Zhuang was very angry. These things are just mud that can't support the wall, and they are the same bastards as those noble children of the human race, and the senior brother Zhuangzhuang, who is their ancestor, feels that he should take care of it. Qin Zhigang knew what he wanted to do when he saw the change in Zhuang Zhuang's expression, and he slipped down from Zhuang Zhuang to tease the stupid roe deer, and said to Zhuang Zhuang: "I'll play here for a while, and I'll camp here at night, you can go with your business!"
Zhuang Zhuang nodded, pointed to the west and said to the monkey demon: "Five miles away, there are people you don't know, go and have a few!"
The monkey demon was shocked, and since they were followed by their vigilance, they followed here, and immediately five monkey demons and five horse demons volleyed away. At a distance of five miles, it only took half a quarter to reach the full speed volley, and there were more than a hundred little demons with long ears squatting in the bare woods gnawed by horses. Seeing that they were carrying a big basket with red sweet radishes on their backs, the anger in the heart of the monkey demon and horse demon suddenly disappeared.
This is obviously the rabbit demon who came to send supplies, and did not dare to approach them, the rabbit demon is notoriously timid, and many of the demons have never stepped out of the territory of the rabbit demon. The rabbit demon is very loyal to the demon king, so he sent him to guard the easternmost edge of the land, and his territory is also vigorously and personally drawn out of the border He is protected by the demon king, and the big demons who dare to attack his territory will be punished by the demon king, and he even personally took the rabbit demon to plant radishes in a large area just to be able to pay more tribute to the demon king.
Seeing that it was the rabbit demon clan, everyone was relieved, and greeted them and asked them to run over with the basket on their backs to meet the strong man, and along the way they boasted of the strong and strong, what kind of demon genius, loyal to the liver and courage, heroic and generous, eat and dress exquisitely. The rabbit demons have men and women, and they all nodded in a daze, the men want to be strong subordinates, and the women want to be strong concubines, fortunately, these monkey demons and horse demons have been warned and can't say anything about Qin Zhigang and Qin Song. I'm used to being scared in front of other demon clans, but in fact, I have long wanted to bang the gong and shout in my heart, 'I have a saint as a teacher!'
Zhuang Zhuang first scolded the bird spirit of the bird clan after the demon clan reconnaissance team set off, and asked them to send ordinary bird clans to check the four directions, and then went to beat those who were unwilling to leave. Zhuang Zhuang was extremely fast, and it took about half a quarter to beat more than 3,000 horses who were reluctant to go. Now the monkey demon and the horse demon are very easy to do their ideological work, and the horses who have been punched and kicked struggle to get up, and walk slowly in the direction where the team left.
Qin Zhigang said to Zhuang Zhuang, who came back from work: "These people who are beaten by you will quickly become fine." ”
Zhuang Zhuang felt strange and asked softly: "Teacher, these guys are the laziest, why does the teacher say that they will become sperm?"
Ying Wu pulled his gray beard and said with a smile: "Often the laziest person is the smartest person, and the smart person knows how to be lazy, if the smart lazy person is diligent, hehe!"
Zhuang Zhuang nodded and said, "Oh, so that's the case! Because I was lazy, I thought of a way to contribute less, but instead improved my efficiency, I have a deep understanding of the human race!"
Qin Zhigang looked at Ying Wu's ill-intentioned smile and said, "People who have more ways are not necessarily lazy, but lazy people must have more ways!"
The iron-billed crane's mouth was crooked, and he pulled out the gourd on his back and took a sip of water and said, "Don't fight here, these lazy horses are willing to go, and we will move forward a little more." ”
Qin Zhigang looked at the ancestor drinking water, and asked for a while: "Two ancestors, is there such a shortage of water on this road?"
Qin Tiezui didn't speak, and Ying Wu replied, "All the water within twenty miles of the horizontal is either drunk dry or dirty, and the drinking water we drank was brought back from far away by Qin Song's demon clan disciples. ”
Qin Zhigang turned his head to Zhuang Zhuang and said, "Zhuang Zhuang, can you go and get some water to drink?"
Zhuang Zhuang nodded and whispered, "Teacher, wait a minute!" and then beckoned the demon clan to stop the lazy horse, and the entire rear team rested in place, and immediately replenished their water before going on the road.
After doing this, Zhuang Zhuang jumped up into the sky, and in the blink of an eye, the people on the ground could not see him. Zhuang Zhuang stopped five miles above, and the terrain within forty miles below was in full view, and there was a small flat land of two acres in front of the left three miles of lazy horses. Zhuang Zhuang felt that this place could be used to store water, and his body was raised to ten miles above the ground again, Zhuang Zhuang felt that the gravitational pull of the earth was stronger, and the force field was fully open and continued to instill demon power and true qi, when a small half of the energy in his reserve was used up, Zhuang Zhuang began to work hard to reduce the range of the force field, and when the force field was reduced to a radius of one zhang length, it could no longer be reduced. This is the reason for the infusion of energy, after the demonic power and true qi are separated from the body, it will fade with the air, and the farther away from the body, the more difficult it is to control, the strong force field is based on the divine consciousness, supplemented by the compound force field powered by the demon power and true qi, it is very dangerous to condense and aggregate so much energy under the control of the divine consciousness, and the strong does not know. In fact, Qin Zhigang didn't know, but Qin Zhigang knew the principle of firecrackers, and if he knew that Zhuang Zhuang was going to do such a stupid thing, he would remind him.
Zhuang Zhuang felt that the weight of this force field was enough, and the gravitational force from the earth was even heavier, Zhuang Zhuang felt that this force field was too heavy, if it was smashed like this, the ground would be too deep and hit the cave or something, and it would not be able to hold water, so he began to withdraw his demonic power and true qi. After thinking about it, the proximity to the demon clan here still collected all the true qi, and used the pure demon power as the driving force to build this force field.
Yes, the solution that Zhuang Zhuang came up with was to smash it down with a force field, and smash the ground into a depression to store water, and the demon clan who followed the saint to learn the Tao really had more ideas than ordinary demon clans.
Fortunately, Zhuang Zhuang took back a lot of energy, and he checked it in the air, and felt that it was almost enough before he smashed it down on his head and feet. Zhuang Zhuang didn't dare to accelerate, for fear that the speed would be too fast and smash too deep, if there was really a cave below like Honeycomb Mountain, it would be a big loss to not be able to store water, and it would be very embarrassing in front of so many people. Although he does not actively accelerate, he can fall faster and faster under the inertia and gravitational pull of the earth.
When it was only one mile from the ground, the speed was already very terrifying, and it fell into the ground in the blink of an eye, and suddenly the demonic qi was vertical and horizontal, and the strong wind shot out in all directions, with a loud noise, resounding through the world, and the ground trembled like chaff and spread far away, and the gravel and soil were splashed dozens of battles high and thrown out of half a mile before falling.
Qin Zhigang looked at the direction of the sound from a distance and said, "It seems to have gone too far!"
Ying Wu shook his head worriedly, the power of the demon clan is too strong, and it is even more difficult to have a teacher like Xiao Gang, the affairs of the sect must be grasped quickly.
Qin Tiezui touched his head with his only real hand and said, "How did you make this noise?"
When everything calmed down, Zhuang Zhuang got up from the huge pit he smashed out, and all the things he was wearing were fabrics refined by Qin Tiezui, and now they were broken into a net, but fortunately, the clothes when he transformed were stored in his body, and he hurriedly summoned to the surface of his body, and looked at the huge pit with himself as the center of more than 100 steps and a depth of more than two zhang, recalling the thrilling moment of intimate contact with the earth.
The moment the force field came into contact with the vegetation, Zhuang Zhuang knew that he could not control the highly constricted force field, and Zhuang Zhuang wanted to spread the force field upward, but under this inertia, he couldn't even dissolve the force field. In a hurry, he could only use Tai Chi to slam his fists hard, and the next thing was not so clear to him. The force first smashed into the ground under the drive of inertia, and then the strong body followed the tunnel smashed by the force into it, and the force field was completely out of control, and under the action of inertia, it produced a violent explosion while pouring into the ground. Zhuang Zhuang's underground Tai Chi strength was still activated, dodging a large number of aftermaths, and when the force field was all consumed, Zhuang Zhuang was already exposed to the air, quietly looking at the objects falling from above.
After a while, Zhuang Zhuang calmed down and cleaned up the debris in the pit, and released a force field to compact the surface of the pothole. After doing this, he jumped into the air again, and when he saw the lazy horses not far away, he couldn't help but sigh: "The lazy thing is really smart enough!"
Zhuang Zhuang flew more than 20 miles to the east, scraped more than 10 small ponds, controlled the clearest spring water with a portable force field, and used the "big water diversion technique" to solidify the dragon shape and stand on it, pinching and commanding, and flew towards the big pit he smashed out. The water dragon was injected into the big pit and only used up forty percent of the water storage level, and Zhuang Zhuang brought only more than 1,000 catties of spring water to pick up his teacher.
The monkey demon and horse demon on the ground who were rushing back with the rabbit demon pointed to the sky and said, "Look, that's a strong man!"
The rabbit demons looked at the existence that they couldn't understand, and their hearts burst out with infinite worship, 'I can be a demon for a lifetime like a strong man' I don't know if this is the demon clan who has studied in the school and read it like this. The nearby demon clan heard it and repeated it again, until finally all the demon clans shouted out like this, the more they shouted, the more neat it became, and the sound was clear and distant. Zhuang Zhuang almost didn't laugh out of his urine when he fell, these authentic members of the demon world were worshipping him, a miscellaneous demon who had escaped from the edge of the demon world, so sincere, Zhuang Zhuang felt that he had a special face.
After landing, Zhuang Zhuang drew out five hundred catties of spring water for Ying Wu to distribute, and the remaining spring water was all rewarded to the rabbit demon, the rabbit demons have never drunk water like this, and they did not dare to eat radishes along the way, and there were only some dirty mud left in the drinking water. After the rabbit demons put down the radish, they just didn't leave.
Qin Tiezui Nunuzui asked Ying Wu to ask, and when Ying Wu asked, he knew that these rabbit demons were photographed by the rabbit demon and did not plan to take them back, which was sent by the rabbit demon to serve the noble lord.
Qin Zhigang thought about it for a while, and felt that there was too little manpower, so it was better to keep them, and temporarily incorporated these rabbit demons into the strong personal guard, and Zhuang Zhuang had a team of hundreds of rabbit demons as followers. When Zhuang Zhuang announced that he would keep them, the rabbit demons jumped up for joy, and then Zhuang Zhuang asked them to choose one of them to go back and deliver the letter. Now the rabbit demons, you pushed me to let them all be very modest, but they didn't want to go back, Qin Zhigang gestured to Zhuang Zhuang, Zhuang Zhuang lowered his head and listened to Qin Zhigang's advice.
Soon there was a way, Zhuang Zhuang taught the rabbit demons to play "scissors, rock, paper" The rabbit demons were very happy, and then they followed the strong people to teach them to play games, can they not be happy?
Zhuang Zhuang pointed to the hammer and said, "Come here, what's your name?" It's you, you go back and deliver the message, and wait for the next batch of horses to come back to me." ”
The rabbit demon cringed and said: "The little one is called Mao Eighteen, and he is the eighteenth child of his parents in the family, so he is called Mao Eighteen." Don't let me go back, I am willing to follow the adult, after I go back, I can't even go to the head of our family, I can follow the great power of the adult to learn some advanced things, in order to go further!"
Zhuang Zhuang saw that this rabbit demon spoke eloquently and capably, and liked this rabbit demon more and more, walked over and touched his pointed ears and said: "You are already my subordinate, I can rest assured when I send you there, you go back and let the rabbit demon patriarch prepare more radishes and grass, the horse clan will pass by here, and there will be more next time." I also want you to bring a treasure back to your patriarch, here you know to use a hammer to smash scissors, you are the smartest, send you to do this thing well. ”
Mao Eighteen's saliva flowed out, Ying Wu threw two corn tortillas to him, Qin Zhigang took out a marble-sized Divine Nian Stone for Zhuang Zhuang, Zhuang Zhuang recorded the next paragraph in the Divine Nian Stone, and wrapped the Divine Nian Stone with the rags on his body and handed it to Mao Eighteen. Mao Shibai carefully put away the small bag, Zhuang Zhuang told him how to use it, and told him not to peek at the contents of it.
The rabbit demon ate one of the tortillas that Ying Wu threw at him, and then took the other one into his arms, apparently to make emergency rations. Qin Tiezui smiled and said, "This little demon is good, the fourth brother will give him two more pieces to eat on the road." ”
Qin Zhigang said: "This tortilla is salt, right? It seems that there are more than 100 pieces left, and the total is only more than 50 catties, all of them are counted for him, are you still afraid that Zhuang Zhuang will run out of rations here?"
Ying Wu laughed and said: "With this Shenxing Taibao, we can't be hungry, okay!
Mao 18 ran away with more than 50 pounds of corn tortillas on his back, and he was reluctant to eat too many corn tortillas along the way, so he presented them to his parents and elders when he got home.
Zhuang Zhuang let the team move on, let the horse clan go to the puddle he got to drink water, the demon clan divided the radish to these lazy horses again, the lazy horses are now very happy to know that they are not here to die, encourage each other, neigh and run forward, before and after the performance is like two groups. Along the way, Zhuang Zhuang listened to the self-description of the rabbit demons, and listened to the explanations of the monkey demons and horse demons, only to know that the demon formation rate of the rabbit demon is very high, and basically the rabbits that can become spirits can become demons. Zhuang Zhuang didn't understand why, the monkey demon and the horse demon also said one thing, that is, the territory of the rabbit demon clan was not here before, it was because their demon rate was too high, and the other demon clans were not convinced, and finally divided their original territory, and the rabbit demon clan moved here. After arriving here, the demon rate is as high, but no one dares to covet their land anymore, the demon king has an order not to get the invitation of the rabbit demon, and no big demon is allowed to set foot in the territory of the rabbit demon, except for the big demon, who can be the opponent of the rabbit demon?
The rabbit demon is an invincible existence in his own territory, he can kill other demon clans in his own territory, and other demon clans dare not have big demons to come to him for trouble, and although the rabbit demon has been privileged, he never abuses it, he is still a low-key demon and honestly farms.
After hearing this, Qin Zhigang understood why the rabbit demon clan had a high rate of becoming demons, and labor produced commands! These rabbit demons were helping to plow the soil and plant the land before they became essences, and after they became essences, they were even more busy with the work before and after, thinking about what seeds to plant on what day, what kind of land to plant and what radishes, and how much they used their brains and physical strength, it was naturally easy to become demons.
Zhuang Zhuang continued to inquire about how many demons there were in the rabbit demon, and the rabbit demons couldn't say it at all, but the monkey demon who followed on the side knew that there were 100,000 rabbit demons fifty years ago, but the combat power was so weak that even some beasts were stronger than them.
Qin Zhigang can be sure that the territory of the Rabbit Demon Clan is about the size of three Fengxian Counties, but the number of demons is only about the same as one county, the lifespan of ordinary rabbits is very short, and most of the Rabbit Demon Clan will die in the first five hundred days after becoming demons. The rabbit demon got the conditions to become a demon because of labor, and also lost the opportunity to learn and progress because of labor, so a large number of rabbit demons died in the first tribulation, the tribulation may just be a fall on the out, maybe just a sudden serious illness, or even an emotional dispute, there are very few thunderbolts from the sky to survive the first tribulation, and the probability of lightning hitting mortals is less. But this heavenly tribulation has controlled the number of rabbit demons at about 100,000, and they have not been able to exceed 120,000, and they are only more than 110,000 at most.
After hearing this, Qin Zhigang and Zhuang Zhuang left here, and Zhuang Zhuang told Qin Tiezui: "Don't worry, my lord, I'll send you sausages and rice later, it's all here, and it's okay to let the horse clan go slowly." ”
Qin Tiezui was very happy, and Ying Wu couldn't close his mouth when he learned that his descendants were all healthy now, and thanked Qin Zhigang vigorously.
