Sent away the river tribe and a group, another team of the Tianlong tribe also set off again, this time to the grassland, a total of 10 people, led by the thin head tuo, all of them are good archers in the tribe to follow the departure.

Because Wu did not allow it, Wang Tian did not follow the two teams, and their purposes were different, one was to go to mining, and the other was indeed to find out the news.

In addition to finding out the news of the Niu clan and the sheep tribe in the name of sending salted fish, Wang Tian also asked him to visit the tree tribe in the north of the Tianlong tribe, which Wang Tian knew nothing about so far, and invited them to come to his tribe next year to participate in the party, and by the way, he gave a little salt and pottery as gifts.

After the completion of the spring farming and seedling cultivation next year, Wang Tian plans to start exploring around the tribe and start trading as a new way to expand the influence and strength of the tribe.

In the past, due to the restrictions of the road, the contacts with the Tianlong tribe were limited to the sheep tribe, the river tribe and the tree tribe, and even the Niu clan, which is now a mess, is also an entanglement that occurred only after an unexpected long trip.

Wang Tian believed that there must be many large and small tribes scattered around his tribe, and communicating with them was the best way to quickly enhance the strength of his tribe.

The problems of distance and security have been solved to a certain extent, and the opening of trade has reached a feasible stage, and it is always good to explore the way first.

And Wang Tian didn't plan to rest, his goal was to look at the plain directly south of the tribe that was hit by the river, in his heart, this place was the future of the tribe, the main farming area.

At the same time, it is also a good place for grazing horses and sheep, and the land suitable for cultivation will reach one or two thousand hectares, that is to say, there are more than 1~20,000 acres of cultivated land, and it will become the granary of the growing Tianlong tribe in the future.

Wang Tian wanted to take advantage of the good weather now to go and explore, anyway, Wu just didn't allow him to go too far away, and now he was just walking around the door of his house, even if he went a little farther, Wu wouldn't know.

Directly south of the tribe, on the opposite side of the riverbank, although it is directly in front of the Tianlong tribe, but because of this small river that is not too wide, it is a virgin land that the tribe has never set foot in.

In winter, the river is frozen, but the weather is cold, and the Tianlong tribe has never considered taking the opportunity of the river to set foot on this land in such weather, because the cold will kill people.

And other seasons because of the obstruction of this river, also gave up the exploration of this territory, which made Wang Tian very unclear, this will be the center of the tribe in the future, this area is surrounded by water on both sides, Wang Tian has overlooked the situation here, in autumn, this place is full of insects and birds, aquatic plants are abundant, like a grassland, Wang Tian feels that it is more likely to be a wetland.

This should be a treasure land, if you can get rice in the future, this is really a granary, because the tribe was in a hurry to build a wall, Wang Tian couldn't find time to explore

。

At this time, taking advantage of the leisure time in winter, he can just come to run a horse and take a look at the terrain and landform, but it is a pity that when he and the second brother of Jingang took 10 people to gallop on this snow, they couldn't see it clearly because of the heavy snow.

What will happen if you go all the way to the south, due north has proven to be a grassland, and from the topography point of view, it is only a connecting area between grassland and jungle, so what about the south, will it encounter the Yellow River or the Yangtze River? Or which sea will be the far east of the East?

Yellow Sea or East China Sea? Wang Tian really wants to ride his horse and gallop all the way to the end, maybe he can understand where he is now, and maybe he can understand one of the three major questions in life.

In this unknown world, Wang Tian didn't dare to gallop on horseback, and it was not clear what was going on under the ice and snow, although there was already a thick layer of ice and snow on the surface at this time, but if he encountered a swamp, it was not a joke.

So after galloping for a while, the Twelve Horsemen slowed down and only moved along the places where there were beast tracks, and the beast tracks seen along the way were mostly left by some small animals, and it was estimated that they were left by some hares, roe deer, sika deer and so on.

In such a large area, there are no fierce beasts? Or is it winter that bears and blind people are hibernating?

Just as he was looking at the flowers, the second brother of Jin Gang suddenly spoke: "Son of heaven, you see that there seems to be someone burning a fire over there!" If you look at that piece of moisture, I guess someone is cooking something over there! ”

Playing with the sky looked in the direction pointed by the second brother, and sure enough, he saw a few places where the water vapor was steaming, and the water vapor floating on the snow surface stood there like a few white pillars.

"Be vigilant, let's slowly lean over in a fan formation!" Wang Tian beckoned a group of people to line up, the second brother walked at the forefront, and Wang Tian followed everyone slowly in the position of the fan pendant.

Since the invention of paper, the folding fan has also been made out by Wang Tian, so what is the fan-shaped thing, everyone understands that this formation is conducive to unfolding and closing, and it is a typical search formation.

After getting closer, the second brother had already made a pause gesture, and the warrior halberd of the tribe was already tightly held in his hand, ready to deal with possible dangers at any time.

From the situation of the horses sitting down, it is evident that they must not have encountered any wild beasts, for the lightning they have been quiet, and there is no agitation or excitement.

At this time, the second brother had already galloped back, and said with a somewhat panicked expression: "Son of heaven, let's go back quickly, there are some strange things ahead!" There are a few cauldrons on the ground, and the water in the pot is boiling with bursts of hot gas, and those water vapors are formed in this way, and the water on the ground is boiling, and it looks too scary, it is estimated that there are any monsters in the water, so let's leave quickly! ”

When Wang Tian heard the second brother say this, he was a little confused at first, but after thinking about it carefully, he already knew in his heart that there were not any monsters, and there were probably a few hot springs in front of him?!

"Don't panic, where are so many monsters, let me take a look and understand!" Wang Tian thought that it might be a few hot springs

, the person also became excited, and immediately gave the order to move forward.

"Son of heaven, those puddles are like cauldrons, and the water in the middle is tumbling like boiling water, so don't go, in case of danger, how can I explain to Wu!"

When the second brother heard that the Son of Heaven was going to check, he said anxiously.

"What danger can there be, don't worry, let's just look at it on horseback, and we don't dismount, if there is any situation, we can retreat immediately, we have horses, what else can be faster than them?"

When the second brother heard this, he agreed to the Son of Heaven, and at the same time ordered everyone to be careful and vigilant about the surrounding situation, but if the situation was wrong, immediately put the horse away.

Wang Tian rode his horse to the so-called cauldron, his eyes showed joy, what kind of monster is obviously just a hot spring, he circled around the lake, and he already clearly felt the difference in the temperature around him.

"Don't worry, it's not a weird monster, it's just a hot spring!"

"Hot springs, what is a hot spring?"

For this word, the second brother understands it separately, but the meaning of the combination is not clear.

"You just think it's natural bath water, you don't need to heat it artificially, it's hot water coming out of the ground, it's a good thing!"

After Wang Tian finished speaking, he began to drive the lightning to run, and turned around all the nearby hot springs, there were five hot springs in total, three large and two small, the largest one was the size of two basketball courts, and the smallest one was estimated to be about 10 square meters of water surface.

"Haha... That's great! That's great! ”

The second brother looked at the laughing Son of Heaven in puzzlement, he didn't know why he was so happy, but when he saw the Son of Heaven's expression, he was very relaxed, and he also knew that there was no danger.

Wang Tian led them to the largest hot spring, got off the horse, walked to the shore of the spring, tried it with his hands, and found that the temperature was already a little hot, but he was able to adapt to it.

Feel the hot hand, then the temperature must exceed the body temperature of the human body, but absolutely not more than 50 degrees, there are many hot springs in Hunan in later generations, the reasons for the formation of hot springs are more complicated, but they are all related to geothermal heat.

According to the division of later generations, it is generally believed that those with a high temperature of 75 °C are high-temperature hot springs; Those between 40 °C and 75 °C are medium-temperature hot springs; Those below 40 °C are low-temperature hot springs; If it is below 25°C, it is a cold spring, and as far as the temperature is perceived now, it is at most a medium-temperature hot spring, and it may even be a low-temperature hot spring.

After all, the weather is cold, and people are too sensitive to temperature, and the perceived temperature is not very accurate.

"I'll go down and try it first, see what the temperature is, if it's not hot, you can just take a shower in it."

When the second brother heard that the thing that could make the Son of Heaven so happy, it was just a bath, and the tribe was not short of firewood, so it was necessary to wash it back and wash it.

"Son of God, don't go down, what if there is any danger, you see that the water is boiling, and you can't scald off the skin when you go down!"

Pottery is used in the tribe

The water has been boiling for a long time, and the water will boil when heated, and the temperature is unbearable for the human body, and the second brother is still clear.

Wang Tianyi thought about it, most of the hot springs belong to sulfate springs, and some of them will emit toxic gases such as gas, and these toxic gases are usually colorless and odorless, and they will be tricked if they are not careful.

It was really inappropriate to bring people in recklessly like this, thinking of this, Wang Tian hurriedly let people get on the horse and quickly moved away from the area that had melted because of the hot springs.

For Wang Tian's different performances before and after, everyone was highly nervous, thinking that the Son of Heaven had discovered some danger, and they all held the bronze weapons tightly in their hands, and the second brother even pulled out the Tang knife and held it across his chest.

When the other warriors saw this, they followed suit, and for a moment it was as if they were facing a great enemy, and Wang Tian was also stunned for a moment when he saw this situation, thinking that these guys had extraordinary hearing and felt that some beast was approaching.

After a long silence, Wang Tiancai came back to his senses, and it was his strange behavior that caused them to misunderstand.

"Let's go back to the tribe first, call the witch and bring the arrows that ignite the fire, but there should be no danger, call all the horses and male warriors left in the tribe, and if there is no danger, groom the horses."

The reason why Wang Tian let the bow and arrow with the fire was to test whether there were any harmful gases in the hot spring for 4 weeks, in fact, during the time he was near the hot spring just now, if there was really a poisonous gas such as gas, it is estimated that he would have fallen at this moment.

He was now not dizzy, and he had proved that he was fine, and this was just a matter of peace of mind, and with this free hot water, he planned to have the horses groomed.

In addition, the hot spring water contains a lot of minerals that are beneficial to the human body, so it is a natural healing ground, so it is natural to call the witch to enjoy it.

and his order made the second brother even more confused, to bring the arrows that ignited the fire, and to call all the male warriors and war horses in the Wu and tribe over? That's the rhythm of big things.

"Okay, I'll ask someone to prepare a few more pots of arrows......"

Wang Tian: "Why are you preparing more arrows?" It's good for the warriors to carry their usual equipment, just a few arrows that can ignite the fire, and they are not here to fight, nor are they hunting, why do they bring so many weapons! ”

Second brother: "......"

Wang Tian is not easy to explain these things, because he may need 100 sentences to continue to explain what he explained, so he simply stopped saying the reason, and only said that he invited them to come over and take a bath, so that everyone should not be too nervous.

After returning to the tribe, Wang Tian not only brought the witch here, but also brought out the little spirit lark and the seven little beasts.

Wang Tian took the two girls on the horse and walked slowly, this is to take care of the seven little ones to keep up, and Wu is escorted by the second brother behind, for being brought here from the warm room by the Son of Heaven, Wu is somewhat reluctant.

"Wu, hurry up, you stay here all day

In the room, you should also come out for a walk, just come out to breathe, I'll take you to a good place to take a bath, it's good for the body, I don't tell him about ordinary people. ”

Before Wu could speak, Xiao Ling shouted and screamed, at this time she didn't think about the fault in Wang Tian's words, she just felt excited to be able to leave the tribe and come out to play in the snow.

Looking at her excited appearance, it reminded Wang Tian of her age, after all, she was just a child, in previous years, at this time, the people of the Tianlong tribe were all nested in the cave and lived a dark cat winter life, and this year, because of Wang Tian's arrival, the appearance of clothes and shoes and other equipment made people able to leave the cave.

Even if a group of bear children are not allowed to go out of the tribe's walls, they are already having fun on the tribe's observation deck, and the snowman building and snowball fight games taught by Wang Tian are very popular.

I have been playing for more than a month during the recess, not only did I not get tired of it, but I was more interested, and now the two girls walked out of the tribe and came to this vast snow land on the other side of the river, and it was strange that Xiao Ling was not excited.

"Isn't it cold to bathe outside in winter, don't be a witch!" It was the lark who said this, this girl is generally calm, and at this time she has already discovered that something is wrong.

"Yun'er, we have found a few hot springs here, that is, the water that comes out of the ground is hot, and soaking in these waters can cure diseases, oh, how can I harm witches!"

"Can a bath still cure a disease?"

The lark expressed suspicion, she has not been in the tribe for too long, and her ability to Wang Tian has not reached the point of blind obedience, since Wang Tian came back from the grassland, the title of the little liar has not been called, but he has not followed Xiao Ling to call him Brother Tianzi.

"Yes, yes, there is such a fun thing! Witch, let's go fast! Xiao Ling was convinced of Wang Tian's words, and she had already begun to urge the witch, eager to get to the place immediately.

"Ling'er, don't worry, we have to see if the place is safe for a while before deciding whether to lean over, there is a colorless and odorless thing, it is very likely that it will also appear near the hot spring, don't run around after getting off the horse for a while!"

Gas can't gather in an open area, so it's normal not to smoke Wang Tian down, but this doesn't rule out the possibility of gas.

The so-called gas is the saying of the coal industry, which is formed by the decomposition of cellulose and organic matter by anaerobic bacteria in the early stage of accumulation of coal by ancient plants. In a high-temperature, high-pressure environment, gas continues to be generated due to physical and chemical effects while coal is formed.

Gas is a colorless, odorless gas, but sometimes you can smell the fragrance similar to apples, which is due to the aromatic hydrocarbon gas and gas gushing out at the same time, the main component is alkanes, of which methane accounts for the vast majority, and a small amount of ethane, propane and butane, in addition to generally containing hydrogen sulfide, carbon dioxide, nitrogen and water vapor, as well as trace amounts of inert gases, such as helium and argon, commonly known as coal gas.

In poorly ventilated roadways, it is easy to cause hypoxic coma, and an explosion will occur when encountering an open flame, but it will burn naturally when it is well ventilated.

That's why

The reason why Wang Tian prepared a rocket, and shot it at several hot springs with a rocket, if there are still these gases, it will burn, otherwise it can be determined that it is safe.

Once at the place, the fighters lit rockets and shot them at different places above the mouth of the hot springs, and everything was normal, nothing happened.

"It's okay, let's get off the horse!"

Wang Tian tried the water temperature of the five hot springs, and felt that the water temperature of the five hot springs was also about 40 degrees, and there was not much difference.

Then let Lightning take its people to the mouth of the largest hot spring, let the horses soak themselves, and then wait for the warriors of the Celestial Dragon tribe to freshen them.

The hot spring water should not be too cold or too hot, and the hot spring water below 40 degrees is easy to breed germs, and it is not good for the skin after soaking for a long time.

The water temperature is too high to soak for a long time is also not conducive to health, it is easy to cause excitement in a short time, and there is a significant sedative effect for a long time, especially for the elderly like Wu to be more cautious, and the high temperature hot spring should never be super long.

However, hot springs have a good therapeutic effect on joint stiffness, neuralgia, rheumatic pain, gastrointestinal diseases, skin diseases, etc., and the primitive people who have lived in caves for many years, Wang Tian estimates that none of these problems have fallen.

Chronic rheumatoid arthritis, this Wu absolutely has, in winter or rainy weather, Wang Tian often sees him beating his legs and waist, for this era of lack of medical treatment, there is really no good way to treat.

Now with this natural physiotherapy method, Wang Tian naturally thought of Wu first, at first he was reluctant to go down, because he felt cold, but when he came to the hot spring, after staying for a while, he found that the temperature around him was not cold at all, and finally came to the water under Wang Tian's urging.

As for the depth of the water, Wang Tian had already tested it, and the deepest place was to the chest of an adult, so he didn't worry about safety, and Wu felt a burst of comfort after half pushing it down, and looked up at the snow around him, feeling a burst of magic.

On the land covered with ice and snow, there were a few places where ice and snow could not be covered, and the water temperature was just right for Wang Tian, but Wu felt that it was not hot enough, and he thought that if the water was hotter, it should be more comfortable.

"Son of God, are these waters all the same temperature? Is there a hotter place? Wu asked, pointing to a few other springs.

"Yes, but there is not much difference, you soak in this mouth first, the temperature of the two mouthfuls is hotter, you can go over there later."

Wang Tian said as he pointed to the two hot springs next to him and said.

The first hot spring he asked everyone to soak in was the lowest temperature among the five hot springs, and the highest temperature was not good for health as soon as it came up, and it needed to be adapted gradually, even so, each time it could not be soaked for too long.

And you must first use the method of half-body soaking, and wait until the body gradually adapts to the method of using full-body immersion, to put it bluntly, it is a step-by-step process.

"Wu, don't soak in the hot springs for too long

,Every time a quarter of an hour is about the same.,Soak half of the body first.,And then gradually the whole body goes in.,If you don't feel well.,You have to leave! ”

After saying this, Wang Tian took two girls and 7 little beasts to another spring with a lower temperature to take a bath, one is two girls, although they have not yet grown up, but after all, there is a difference between men and women, and it is not good to soak together with a group of big men in the tribe.

Second, he is not very accustomed to the water that is too hot, and he can understand that the water is too cold, the skin of the elderly is always less sensitive than that of the young, so the elderly are more able to adapt to the high temperature, and they may feel just right for the water in their 60s, and the water temperature in their 70s will feel comfortable.

And this temperature is already scary for young people.

The two girls were cheerful and numb and took off their essence and carefully immersed themselves in the water, Wang Tian's eyes looked at the lark's newly developed body intentionally or unintentionally, but the lark was generous and did not mean to avoid him at all.

Xiao Ling and the lark both seemed very excited, splashing water and frolicking with each other, but although they seemed a little scared, after determining the depth of the water, they had only splashed water on the spot and played.

And the seven little ones seemed relaxed, without the slightest fear of it, swimming around in the water, mammals are born to swim, so they are not afraid of water at all.

When they were in the tribe, the two girls often bathed them, and a large and small clay pot naturally could not be compared with the big pool in front of them.

The laughter of the two girls like silver bells was intertwined with the rough voices of the warriors of the tribe, and the laughter was mixed with the neighing of horses, and the water vapor from the hot springs enveloped everyone in it, which seemed to be happy and somewhat ethereal......
