Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Spring Fair Conquers the Tribes
Yanbu is a very small tribe, a total of only one hundred and twenty people, because of the difficult living environment, the life expectancy of people is limited, the mortality rate of newborn babies is extremely high, so the oldest in the tribe is only forty years old, the average age is low, except for infants and young children can not participate in labor, the rest of the people are all combatants, and are producers.

In this market transaction, Hui brought ten men and twenty women, equipped with leather armor, bows and arrows and spears and stone axes, and his combat effectiveness was not low, but after all, the number of people in the entire market was too small, and the number of people in the entire market had exceeded Hui's counting ability.
In short, if the tribes in the bazaar unite to attack the salt department, they will only have a dead end, which is why Hui has always kept a low profile, selling salt at a low price, but now it is different, the salt department is blessed by the gods, and the power of the gods is enough to sweep the entire market and kill all the people, of course, the gods will not do so much, but it is no problem to let the tribes be subdued.
In the future, the salt department will be the strongest branch of the tribe, and the weight of Megumi's speech will also increase, and slowly, the salt department will grow stronger and stronger, what a beautiful prospect.
In accordance with the will of the gods, Megumi personally visited various caravans and agreed to compete tomorrow.
The function of the Spring Fair is not only barter, but also to exchange information, test each other, and compete for the right to speak.
That night, Liu Yanzhi let the soldiers sleep peacefully, there was Xiao Si guarding outside the camp, how dare the young people approach, there were indeed several waves of people who took advantage of the night to explore the truth, but when they saw Xiao Si who was as powerful as a saber-toothed tiger, he also dispelled the idea of night attack and ran away.
Before dawn, Liu Yanzhi woke everyone up, fully armed, dressed up to attend the martial arts competition, after some deliberate dressing, even Hui was shocked when he saw it, is this still a man under his command? This is a heavenly soldier!
By the time the sun rose, the arena was ready to stop, and caravans from more than a dozen tribes gathered around, waiting for the show to begin.
Shiobe entered the venue, and countless pairs of eyes looked over, all of them opened their mouths wide, and their jaws almost fell to the ground.
Is this still the barren salt department in the past, this gang of goods is too good to complete the scene, ten men, all wearing rhinoceros skin armor, leg guards, leather helmets on their heads, and a bright green green green feather, holding a sharp and straight spear and a wooden sign in their hands, the card is painted with a hideous beast, there are smart people who understand at a glance, this kind of wooden card can resist the enemy's blow in battle, the salt department is not simple, there are smart people to guide them.
The women of the salt department were also carefully dressed, their bodies were covered with animal skins, their faces were painted red, and their fierceness was no less than that of men, although there were only thirty people, but the momentum was so strong that a hundred people could not suppress it.
This is not the main event, when Liu Yanzhi and Zhen Yue appeared with Xiaosi, the whole bazaar was a sensation, everyone is knowledgeable, these two people obviously do not belong to this world, they are gods! It is a supreme being above mortals.
The dismount was very successful, and then Liu Yanzhi controlled the rhythm of the whole court, and no one dared to challenge his authority.
Liu Yanzhi performed three programs, the first was archery, he had to let others understand the power of the bow and arrow, and when he used the bow and arrow to shoot the bird flying in mid-air, the audience was shocked, no less than the effect after the Americans dropped the atomic bomb on Hiroshima.
The bow and arrow are so powerful, the range is far greater than that of the beast rope, and the accuracy is much more accurate than throwing stones, with this kind of weapon, ten people can deal with thirty people, fortunately they did not attack the salt subordinates, otherwise I don't know who will suffer.
The second program is to lift a boulder, and six salt men carried a boulder, which is the granite that Liu Yanzhi found fifty miles away in the middle of the night, and it is not very heavy, there are always five hundred catties.
And he said, Whoever can lift this stone, I will give him all the salt.
There is really a person who does not know the height of the sky to try, and the result can be imagined, the strength of human beings cannot exceed the limit of the body structure, and no one can move a large stone weighing 500 catties.
Liu Yanzhi could, he even threw the boulder into the sky with one hand and caught it, and finally pulled out the meteorite plate axe and split the boulder in half.
The audience was shocked, and everyone was convinced from the bottom of their hearts.
The third program is also the finale, Liu Yanzhi performed a flying stunt, this time his identity as a god was completely confirmed, and everyone in the entire bazaar prostrated and bowed, not daring to get up for a long time.
Shiobe became the highest-ranking tribe, Megumi became the leader of the tribal alliance, and the next time was the stage for each tribe to pay tribute and express their sincerity.
In a word, the gift is soft, and it is not okay not to accept it, people are worried that you will call in the middle of the night to destroy the door, so you can only accept it all, and comfort each other with good words, the gods have a good temper, the gods are not angry with you, go back and live a good life.
There are all kinds of gifts, the most common is the practical daily necessities made of animal skins and bone horns, and there are large items such as livestock and poultry, there is a tribe to send gifts are wonderful, it is ten strong men, the status of men is not as good as women, it is a resource that can be used to give away and exchange, anyway, in the matriarchal society, they can't make a mess, they can only be a seeder and labor.
In fact, in the minds of the salt department and even all the people present, Liu Yanzhi, the male god, is actually a female god, Zhen Yue doesn't make a move, but her prestige is higher, who makes her a woman.
As a sign of sincerity, the seaside tribe sent many crystals, hawksbill turtles, corals, and a precious big fish.
Liu Yanzhi knew this fish, and he had seen similar fish in Zuo Ci's cave, but he didn't know where it came from and what it was used for.
Zhen Yue also knows this strange fish, she said that this is called an electric ray, and like an electric eel, as the name suggests, it can generate electricity.
"There are a total of 2,000 electric board pillars on the electric ray, and there are 2 million "electric plates". These panels are filled with a gelatinous substance that acts as an insulating substance. The surface of each "plate" is distributed with nerve endings, with a negative electrode on one side and a positive electrode on the other. The direction of the current is from the positive electrode to the negative electrode, that is, from the back of the electric ray to the ventral surface. Under the action of nerve impulses, these two dischargers can convert nerve energy into electrical energy and release electricity. The ancient Greeks used electric shocks from black rays to treat diseases such as gout and headaches. ”
Zhen Yue finished speaking in one breath, shaking her head proudly: "Don't ask my sister why she knows, my sister is a frequent visitor to the Children's Palace." ”
"Won't we be able to use electric lights?" Liu Yan joked, "Upstairs and downstairs, electric lights and telephones, in the Neolithic Age, it crossed over to the primary stage of socialism." ”
But he was thinking in his heart, what is the use of Zuo Ci's electric ray, maybe he uses electric alchemy?
The Spring Fair ended successfully, and the Shiobu caravan set out on its way home with lucrative goods and gifts, including an electric ray raised in the seawater.
On the way back, Liu Yan asked Hui directly, where does the tribe's salt come from?
Megumi said that it was not that I deliberately concealed it, but I thought that the gods had known for a long time, and that the secret of the salt department had not existed for too long, and that it had only started from her grandmother's generation, and that there was a hole in the mountain, and there was a drop of water in the hole, and once my grandmother accidentally entered the cave while hunting, and tasted the bitter and salty dripping water.
"The cave is the sacred place of the salt department, and it is also the guarantee of life, so this secret is only passed down from generation to generation by the chief." Hui said this, looked at Liu Yanzhi's expression, and said that this was a gift from the gods.
"When you go back, take me to see it." Liu Yan said straight.
Back in the salt department, Hui took an opportunity to take Liu Yan to climb to the top of Cuiwei Mountain alone, and when he passed by Nima Dui, Hui said that this is the place where we worship the gods, but the real holy place is in the cave.
There are a lot of long vines on the cliff, Hui grabbed the vines and descended more than ten meters, there is an overgrown place, it is impossible to see the entrance of the cave from a distance, and when you remove the weeds and thorns, it is the holy cave of the salt department.
Liu Yanzhi knew the cave on this cliff, and he had locked Liu Fei in this cave 10,000 years later.
Hui climbed into the hole, Liu Yanzhi also followed, the hole was narrow and cramped, he couldn't straighten his waist, he saw that there were stalactites-like things in the depths of the cave, dripping water drop by drop, there was already a big pool of water below, crawl over and dip it with his fingers, taste, it was indeed salt water.
Liu Yanzhi took out the meteorite chisel, he wanted to find out, Hui didn't dare to stop it, what did the god say, there must be enough reason to do this.
The cave is wet, the hardness of the stone is not high, and it is full of holes that Liu Yan has chiseled, and gradually reveals the mystery, he found the fossil bones of the dinosaurs, as well as many ammonite fossils, which is very strange, the dinosaurs are terrestrial animals, and the ammonites are marine animals such as nautilus, how can the two be together.
Suddenly, a bold idea came to mind, and he laughed, and suddenly it dawned on him.
Sixty million years ago, when Cuiwei Mountain was not formed, this was Zhen Yue and his own home, dinosaur bones and ammonite shells were the kitchen waste they ate leftover, as for the salt water, he had an idea, when he stored salt on a large scale, with the salt collected from the Great Salt Lake to pile up a mountain, maybe these salt over the years, through the long history to this day, still play a role is unknown.
There is a providence in the dark, Liu Yanzhi sighed, the naming and survival of the salt department turned out to be a move of his own 60 million years ago, strictly speaking, he should be the descendants of these primitive people, but from another point of view, these people are not their descendants.
It's a mess anyway.
There is a flat stone wall at the exit of the cave, there seem to be some lines on it, Liu Yanzhi carefully identified, this is graffiti on the stone wall with colored minerals, and the painting is clearly a floating Kunpeng!
"Who drew this?" Liu Yanzhi became excited, there are ancient petroglyphs remaining, indicating that Kunpeng is not the first time to come to this time and space, which means that the wormhole at the bottom of the lake will reappear.
