Chapter 66: The Search for the Aborigines

This is a canyon, backed by a stretch of mountains, the canyon is not very deep, but at the entrance it is relatively narrow, only about a dozen zhang wide, outside the canyon is a forest, next to the woods is the Tamsui River. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The terrain is flat and close to the water source, so the forests can be cut down and cultivated for farming, and in this valley, you can build a wall at the mouth of the valley, build houses in the valley, and place the population in the canyon, so that you can rely on the favorable terrain here to protect everyone from the attack of wild beasts or even local tribesmen.

Liu Zhi entered the canyon and looked around, he was very satisfied with the conditions here, although this canyon can only accommodate a few thousand people because of its size, but they only have more than a thousand people now, if there are more people in the future, they can have enough manpower to form an army, and they will not be afraid of the attack of the aborigines living here.

"Okay, the location here is very good, it's here!"

After Liu Zhi looked at the terrain, he made a decision.

At this time, the unloading of things from the big ship is almost complete, and the food they bring is not much, only enough for more than a month to eat, but there is no need to worry too much about this, after the dock is built, the next batch of ships will be able to transport more supplies over, and the food will naturally be available, which does not matter much.

They now have to build their own houses, and the tents can be lived in for a while, but if it rains for a long time, the tents will not work, after all, the tents at this time are not waterproof.

The so-called strength of many people, under the concerted efforts of everyone, the men are responsible for cutting down trees and carrying trees, and the women and children are responsible for picking up thatch and burning bricks and tiles nearby, and soon a large number of wood and bricks are ready, and then everyone works together to start building houses, this process does not take too much time, only about half a month, nearly more than 100 houses have been built, most of these are similar to the courtyard form of the Central Plains building, there is a large yard inside, you can raise some poultryYou can also grow some side dishes, and it is also possible to use them as drying grounds.

Most of the courtyards have four or five rooms, with a family as a household, the size is about the same, and on the mountain behind them, they also built an attic for Liu Zhi, also called Langya Pavilion, although this attic is much inferior to the real Langya Pavilion, but under this condition to be able to do this, Liu Zhi is already very satisfied.

Just when everyone was in full swing to build a house, Liu Zhi took Fang Xingtian and the members of the Langya Pavilion who knew martial arts he brought, left the canyon and explored north along the Tamsui River.

Since ancient times, people have the habit of living by water, this is because water occupies a very important position in human life, everything can be missing, but water can not be lacking, and once there is a water source, then other problems can be solved.

Therefore, Liu Zhi estimates that there must be aboriginal tribes on the island along the Tamsui River, but they have not found it for the time being, for the people of more than 1,000 people, if they can't inquire about the situation clearly, it is irresponsible for the safety of their lives and property, after all, everyone doesn't know how big the tribe on the island is, how many people there are, what they rely on for a living, whether they are aggressive, and so on.

"Pavilion Master, traces of inhabitation have been found in front!"

Although Langya Pavilion is not a military organization, Liu Zhigo pays great attention to cultivating his military strength, and he has a guard under him, named Shadow Secret Guard, the main responsibility of the Shadow Secret Guard is to be responsible for protecting the safety of Langya Pavilion intelligence personnel in various places, and then responsible for spying on some extremely high-risk, but very important intelligence, they are not many, but all of them are masters of Liu Zhi's collection, including Jianghu rangers, martial arts people, famous and decent people and army generals, etc.

Now the main members of the team led by Liu Zhi are all shadow guards, and the person who is reporting information to him is called Zhao Qi, and the shadow guards are not allowed to reveal their real names, so as not to reveal their identities and involve other personnel, so they will each be called by code names.

Hearing Zhao Qi's words, Liu Zhi's heart sank, there were really other people here, and his judgment was not wrong.

"Let's go, take us to see!"

Zhao Qi immediately led the way in front and led everyone towards the place where he found traces.

After arriving at the place, Liu Zhi saw a mess on the ground, there were obvious traces of human activity here, because the surrounding vegetation was seriously damaged, there was a pile of burnt black ashes in the middle, and some white bones were left next to it, obviously someone had roasted something here to eat.

Due to the heavy rainfall in Taiwan, the mud on the ground is relatively soft, and the activities of these people are basically not disguised, so a large number of footprints are left on the ground.

According to the size and number of these footprints, Liu Zhi roughly calculated and found that there were estimated seven or eight people in this group, all of whom were barefoot and did not wear shoes, so there was no doubt that they should be aborigines.

He leaned down, picked up a few bones and took a closer look, and found that this should be a tibia similar to a pig-like creature, the bones are relatively thick, there is a bone marrow cavity in the middle, the epiphysis at both ends has been broken, and the bone marrow cavity in the middle has also been sucked clean, it can be seen that this group of people is very skilled in preying on such creatures, because the bone marrow in their two long bones has not been spared.

There are also some small bones scattered around the fire, which at first glance are fish bones, indicating that these people can not only hunt, but also fish.

Thinking of this, Liu Zhi immediately sent people up and down the Tamsui River to start searching, if these people fished, they would definitely leave traces, he was very interested in this group of people, and at this time he wanted to know what kind of way they fished.

Sure enough, soon someone found some clues by the river, they found some blood stains by the river, and then found a large number of manes, judging from the color of this hair, this should be the hair of a wild boar, so to speak, the animal they roasted and ate in the forest before should be this wild boar, they should be skinned and plucked by the river, washed and then taken to the forest to roast and eat, know how to use fire, know how to hunt, this shows that they have a certain degree of civilization, Add to them these traces of the river, these piles of snails, which show that their fishing tools are fishing nets, otherwise they would not have been able to get them, and they obviously did not eat them.

This discovery made Liu Zhi feel very excited, and he was now very eager to know where this group of people was, and if he tried to get in touch with them, he didn't know if he could absorb them into his circle.

And at this time, Fang Xingtian, who was beside Liu Zhi, had a serious expression, looked up at the other side of the river, and seemed to have found something.

Liu Zhi had learned martial arts from Dian Wei and Guan Yu for a period of time when he was in the Three Kingdoms, although he was not as powerful as Fang Xingtian, but at this time, he also sensed a hint of danger, and when he saw Fang Xingtian's expression, he immediately became vigilant.
