(Thank you for the reward of Foil!) ）

Killing is the power of the ruler.

If you don't obey, you will kill.

Kill if you break the rules.

Of course, you will be given a chance before the beheading, and the punishment for the first violation is lighter, including a twenty lashes for stripping off your clothes.

If you do it again, then don't blame me for being ruthless and unsympathetic.

The human head hung on a high pole is more intimidating than any decree.

Despite his reluctance, the pig man honestly took up his hoe, mixed the manure with the soil according to the rules of the city lord, and sowed the seeds.

In fact, they also have a passion for work. This law is difficult for people to understand from the text, but as long as it is understood thoroughly, it is not difficult to say one, two, three in simple words. Pig people have a lot of melon seeds in their heads, they only know that "the more you do, the more you get", this kind of good thing was not even thought of in the steel teeth before. Under the guidance of the priests, the horribly fat, tall barbarians learned to do simple calculations, their fingers tugging, their spittle, their knowledge-poor brains searching for results in the depths of countless simple "one plus one equals two".

The conclusion is so simple and straightforward: as long as the lord of the castle does what he says, in the autumn he will be able to harvest the grain that fills the storehouse, and the old man and children will be fed.

The black tooth is submissive and respectful to Tianhao.

The same goes for everyone else. Although some of the people present were much older than Tianhao, they did not resist his orders and attitude in the slightest. If Fu Song is a grain of scum buried deep in the grave, Tianhao is the star on the horizon of dawn.

Even compared to other barbarian walled cities, Rock City is much better in terms of living conditions and environment. Looking at the surrounding areas of the city, the Lu people were subdued by us, and the Pig people were wiped out by us as a tribe, and in just a few years, the rock village of several hundred people has become a large city with a population of more than 40,000...... Pride and pride are born spontaneously, like an imprint deep into people's brains.

……

Soft skies are always pleasant, but as the hours passed, people walking on the rugged mountain roads did not see the sun they were looking forward to. There was no doubt that it was another gray and cloudy day, and the drifting clouds blocked the sunlight, which also activated the doubts in Tianhao's heart again.

The old lady should not be lying.

But what happened to the sudden rain on the day of the sacrificial ceremony?

Could it be that the truth is as the old lady said: there are many bases in this world, and they survived the disaster of the asteroid impact on the earth, and even if most of the functions are destroyed, some systems are still functioning.

The old lady is the best example of this. It's a lucky light brain, and although the chance of this luck is very low, it doesn't mean that it won't befall somewhere else.

The road to the north twists and turns, sometimes for more than two hours per kilometre. There are dense forests, and more of them are cliffs. Whenever they encountered an obstacle that they couldn't overcome, the team had to stop and split up their hands to look around for something to use. For example, huge trees, or rocks that are hard enough to build ziplines, stack rocks, etc., and slowly approach the destination in Tianhao's heart.

There are some places where it is really impossible to climb, so you can only take a human ladder.

This is the route given by the old mama, and it is also the safest route with the greatest chance of passing. Although the monitoring data comes from satellites, a long time has passed, but the stubbornness and persistence of this old optical brain really make Tianhao have nothing to say.

"The fixed landscape cannot be changed, the only thing that can change is the vegetation. They're part of the delete, and you know what I mean. ”

I have to admit that the old lady's words do have a point. The area is steep and mountainous, and the impact of the earthquake is almost negligible.

The farther north he went, Tianhao saw more familiar things.

The rocks here are not naturally formed, but are large blocks of concrete. It is not so much a mountain range as it is the result of several buildings with a height of more than 30 floors squeezing, colliding, and collapsing with each other. It is a forcible displacement caused by the movement of the earth's crust, and the architecture of human civilization is as loose and fragile as a child's toy in the face of natural disasters. A long time has passed, and the bones of ancient humans have long since decomposed, paper has become part of the earth, and plastic has not been recognized.

Not all places can be as lucky as the base, and being in a high-concentration radiation environment can sometimes be a benefit, and the fact that the old lady has been able to survive until now is the best example.

As we walked, the mountains made up of countless buildings became more and more sparse and smaller, and the large forests took over the view, but the roads became a little strange. The earth, sand and gravel that make up the pavement are very different from the rest of the world, and there are many scattered particles that reflect a dazzling shimmer.

Tianfang bent down and picked up a fist-sized stone with hard edges and corners, approached it, and said with interest: "This thing is quite beautiful, it seems to be an ore?" ”

Tianhao glanced at it: "If you like it, keep it, you can put it at home as a souvenir." ”

He knew exactly what it was.

It's an old road, and the part of the road that is now stepped on as a road surface is actually a densely connected car.

In the age of civilization, this was supposed to be a city. Humans had no choice but to flee in the face of disaster, driving their private cars into the road leading to the outside of the city like frightened ants. However, for unknown reasons, the roads are blocked, and tens of thousands of vehicles line up on the roads. Perhaps none of the evacuees survived, or they may have been lucky enough to simply abandon their possessions and follow the temporary instructions to enter a nearby underground shelter.

The vehicles left on the road have become relics, blown by wind and sun, lightning and thunder, and nature's laws of decay and decomposition are equally effective against them. Today, the complete body is no longer visible, the frame of high-strength plastic or steel is cracked, and the engine and steel frame are left with only a dark black ring. They turn into powder, or even the favorite home of some kind of virus (bacteria) that feeds on metal. Wild beasts come and go here, countless wind and rain crush hard, and the shattered and decomposed human creations collapse violently, forming a series of raised mounds slightly above the ground, and when stepped on, there will be a "squeak" of dense friction.

Broken Tooth hunts a strange beast.

It resembles a deer, but it is 30 percent smaller than a Bighorn deer. The head has no horns, but the lips have bulging fangs. The difference is that instead of growing from the bottom to the top, as in the case of the pig people, it is the other way around, and the angle of bending extends inward, which is very sharp.

The barbarians were very curious about this, and they came over to see what was new. Tianmad knew that his brother was well-informed, so he snatched the monster from the broken tooth hand, trotted to Tianhao and put it down, and couldn't wait to ask: "Third child, look at it, what is this?" ”

Tianhao forcefully opened the mouth of the dead beast, looked at it carefully for a few minutes, and replied quite firmly: "This is the muntjac." You see that the color of its fur is yellow, so it is also called yellow muntjac. ”

"Can you eat this thing?" This is the most concerned issue of the heavenly madness.

"Of course it can be eaten, and it tastes good." Tianhao smiled indifferently.

Looking at the Tianmad who was full of joy and picked up the yellow muntjac and turned around and ran towards the river, Tianhao slowly put away the smile on his face and sighed secretly.

He didn't think it was just a casual remark, it was indeed a muntjac. According to the classification of the age of civilization, it is a type of cervidae. The one Broken Tooth hunted was a female, so it didn't have horns. The bulging fangs are muntjac canines and are not the result of mutation. However, the size of this muntjac far exceeds that of its counterparts in civilized times, increasing several times.

Muntjac usually lives in tropical rainforests or subtropical areas. In terms of regional distribution, it is rare, if not impossible, to occur in such a place close to the cold zone. Tianhao can only sigh that the adaptation of species to the environment is so strong that no one wants to die, and the same is true for other animals.

The muntjac has a noticeable mutation, and the teeth in its mouth have both the function of grinding plants and biting meat, rather than the large, hard molars of cattle or horses. This means that it and its ancestors have further expanded their food circle during the mutation process, and although they have not yet evolved claws, they have eaten a lot of meat. Rats, hares, birds...... Maybe there will be large beasts, including humans.

A true omnivore.

Continue north.

Mountains began to thin, rolling hills became the dominant tone, dense forests sprawled and wild animals grew. There is no need to worry about food supplies, and the main dish of each meal is either roasted hare, roasted gophers, or muntjac meat.

When he saw the rice field in the distance for the first time, Tianhao felt that all thoughts in his brain were instantly emptied.

He saw huge, tree-like rice.

Standing stunned for a few seconds, he ran like crazy, rushing to the verdant "tree" as fast as he could in his life.

Behind him, there were shocking exclamations from Tianmad and others.

"Oh my God, such a big piece of rice...... I...... I'm not dreaming, am I? ”

"This is indeed rice. We both grow wheat here, but I've seen it on the Leo side before, and it looks exactly the same. ”

"It's too big, can you eat this rice?"

The rice plant in front of him is more than three meters, and even Tianhao must look up. He saw the tips of the stalks that were spreading their young leaves, and the sun shining through the cracks in the clouds, illuminating the young spikelets that were taking shape deep in the shoots.

Rice as tall as a tree, this is not a fairy tale, but a reality.

Tianhao knew that the rice in front of him was called "loquat". In the era that he was familiar with, the millibatch originated in Yunnan, which was the famous "shading rice" at that time.

The millibatch is the giant of rice, and the native millibatch with plants more than two meters abounds. In the local Dai legend, there is a story of the "rice tree".

The advantages and disadvantages of millibatch are equally obvious: its growth cycle is short, it can be double-cropped or even three-cropped a year, and the disadvantage is that the yield is extremely low, with a yield of about 170 kilograms of rice per mu, but this rice has an excellent taste and strong aroma.

"Don't mess around with anything here, everyone stay on guard!"

After explaining these words, Tianhao took out the long-handled war knife that was obliquely inserted in his back with his back, bypassed the dense jungle in front of him, and walked towards the distance.

The old lady didn't lie.

He saw large patches of growing sugar beets, countless radishes growing from ground plants, several different types of rice, soybeans in the growing season...... In the distance, on the ridges of the mountains, you can see patches of fruit trees and even grapes hanging from the tips of the branches.

A house is hidden in the depths of vines, and Tianhao swings his knife to cut through the dense green branches and leaves, driving away countless disturbed insects, revealing the outline of the foundation of a long-ago building.

The white wall paint has long since peeled off and become mottled. Its design style should be solemn and elegant, but now it is full of history and gives people a sense of simplicity. Collapsed staircases, unrecognizable doors and windows, all kinds of furniture that have long since decayed but miraculously barely remained intact in the narrow area. With just a touch of a finger, they immediately loosen and then collapse.

Tian Mad found a rectangular object from the depths of the vines, sent it to Tian Hao, and said cautiously: "Third child, there are words on it. ”

This is a sign, the kind that hangs on both sides of the door of the unit in the era of civilization.

Gently brushing away the dirt and dust on the surface, the words have long been mottled and illegible.

Only half of the word "A" remains, "four" is gone, the "ten" in the middle is still there, and most of the "three" is left, which can barely be recognized.

This is indeed the A-43 area. Judging from the remnants of the text on the sign, it should be a species experimental base.

Due to the regional environment and climate, the number of improved varieties cultivated in such experimental bases is limited, and it is understandable that there is no corn and potatoes.

Left unattended for a long time, the plants here grow irregularly, they evolve in maturity and reproduction, and there is a genetic component forcibly given by ancient humans in the depths of their genes, growing disorderly in this chaotic and barbaric world.

For the northern barbarians, this is not a forbidden area, but no one has ever visited.

Not surprising at all. The world is so big, the total population of the northern barbarian tribes is only 20 million, and when thrown on a huge land, it is almost like a bacterium parasitic on the surface of the human body, inconspicuous (referring to volume, not quantity).

Before mastering the scientific transformation method, nature was full of malice towards humans. It uses treacherous terrain to limit the area of human activity, and wars break out between tribes all year round, and it is difficult to find explorers in the true sense of the word when food and clothing have not yet been solved.

"Everything here belongs to us, to Rock City!" Tianhao stood on a high place, with an indescribable ecstasy, loudly announcing his domination over the area.

The heavenly madness let out a roar of adoration: "That's right, whoever dares to rob us, Lao Tzu will cut off his head and dig out his brain!" ”

The fierce broken teeth were full of hideousness: "Make a hole in his stomach and cut out the liver for wine." ”

Everyone shouted in a frenzy.

"The city lord is right, this is our territory."

"There are so many good things here, all of them are ours."

Tianhao, who was excited, turned to look into the distance.

He had a stronger faith in this savage world.

It is possible to build a city here and bring everything under control.
