The stone tribe is a bit special, everywhere you see on this continent is green, the mountains and forests are continuous, and there are few large areas of light and stones.
And this stone tribe happens to be in a thousand hectares of stone field in this green.
The land was full of stones, all kinds of colored, transparent, or sandy, or very hard ores, but other than that, the ground was full of sand, no plants, and moss.
They have lived in this stone for generations, and they live in the naturally formed cavern inside.
This tribe usually builds weapons, and the tribe's food sources are exchanged for weapons and flints, or all kinds of beautiful stones.
Their best-selling product there is flint and steel, which is more likely to catch fire than ordinary flint and steel.
When Li Yue heard it, he thought that he must come here to see, many of the materials he wanted might be found here, and the meaning of the field they would hear the stone talking, it should be especially good at looking for stones, maybe the copper they wanted, and Wu They can also find it!
Li Yue saw that the number of water wheels in the river had increased to 8, and electricity could be sent out with water, how could he let go of such an opportunity?
But to generate electricity and conduct electricity, copper and plastic must be used, and if you want to make a lamp, you must either find Wu or xenon.
If you want to strengthen and prolong the above two shiny substances, you must also make a glass cover protection!
Anyway, if you want to make it, it's a pit, and it's one set after another, and you need to do a lot of things to get it.
Li Yue felt that the topic of ore was too overclass, if someone was really looking for minerals, it was convenient to be a master, then even if he made a lot of money, Li Yue would have asked the other party to join them!
Coming out of the Tuyuan tribe and walking north for another 2 days, you will see the white sand and gravel directly cutting the green grass, and two extremely clear dividing lines appear in front of you.
"We're here in the Stone Tribe?" Tanuki asked.
"I've never been to this tribe, but it's the only tribe around here that is like this," he said.
"You haven't been here!" Tanuki's eyes widened.
Li Yue squatted down and grabbed a handful of sand and gravel to see, these fine sand resembled a kind of quartz?
Looking up into the distance, this place is like a desert that suddenly appears in the plains, deserted and dusty.
"Let's go!" Li Yueyang dropped the sand in his hand.
Li Yue and the others have been walking for more than 30 minutes, and slowly turning around are almost obscured by the stones and cannot see the green, the tanuki runs before and after marking the route they came from, to prevent them from getting lost in this rocky sandy land.
Looking at the more and more sand content in his hand, these sands, the color is translucent, the texture is light, and it really looks like silica.
If it was silica, these would be of many uses, but unfortunately there are no conditions for him to experiment now.
Further on, you can see many tall stones towering. It is very similar to the stone forest in Yunnan, with fine sand and small transparent stones under your feet, which reflect a beautiful light under the sun.
"Stop!"
Suddenly, spears came to them from all directions, and their faces were painted in very bright colors, and they had beautiful feathers on their heads, and their necks, hands and feet were hung with stones of various colors, which were very beautiful, but unfortunately they were a little darker.
"Don't! I'm from the Fire Tribe, could you please inform the leader? ”
"Don't move! Wait! A man turned around and said something to his companion, and then turned around and walked into the stone forest.
Li Yue and the others were still being held by the spear in their hands, and under the scorching sun, they were all very thirsty, but as soon as they wanted to hold the water bag, they were hit in the face by the spear, and they were not allowed to move.
After 30 minutes, the man who left came back.
The other person who came over was different from these people, he was very white, his hair, eyebrows, eyelashes, skin were very white, and even his eyes were amber. The whole person is in stark contrast to these blacks.
Li Yue felt that this person should have albinism.
"Field! Long time no see! "This one person hugged the scene as soon as he came.
"Long time no see, Ruri!" Field back hug.
"How did you get away with that beast tribe?"
"It's a long story," the scene was ashamed, and turned to Liuli and introduced, "Now we are the people of the Ji tribe, and these are our people!" ”
The field patted Liuli on the shoulder and said happily: "Liuli!" Today we are here to discuss something important with you! ”
This man named Liuli didn't know why, so he invited them into the tribe to talk.
Li Yue arrived at this tribe and found some weirdness here.
There are all caves of all sizes, and because of the arrival of outsiders, people seem to come out to see the excitement, and in this group of people, basically none of them are over 40 years old, all of them are young people, and many of them are born with disabilities.
Liuli poured water for them, and when they quenched their thirst, they asked, "Tell me, what's the matter?" ”
"Liuli, we're here to let you join our Ji tribe!"
"Huh?" Ruri laughed when she heard this! "Field, what are you kidding!"
"I'm not kidding, the current Ji tribe has 5 tribes joined, and the Tuyuan tribe has already gone to the Ji tribe before coming to you! They're joining us too! ”
"Why are so many people joining?" Liuli turned the stone cup, and her eyes were a little careless.
"The main thing is to stop letting other tribes invade our homeland!"
When Li Yue said this, he felt a little uncomfortable.
Ruri was unmoved, as if she didn't care at all.
While talking about the excited field, the reaction to Liuli was unexpected by him.
"Ruri, you don't believe me?"
"Nope"
The scene was a little embarrassing for a while, but Li Yue looked at the delicate stone cup in his hand and had some guesses.
The field is over there, and I will continue to persuade it.
"Liuli, our tribe has become very good now, we have a house that is warm in winter and cool in summer, we have enough food to eat, and we have warm and considerate clothes, and your tribe can live better here!"
"Oh, is that all for us?" Liuli seemed to be a little interested, and it seemed like she was just bored and asked.
"Of course not, everyone in our tribe has a job, as long as there is a job, of course, the elderly and children who can't move don't have to do it"
"Oh, that's it, but we're living a good life now, so we don't need to do it for the time being" Liuli seemed to be a little disappointed, stood up, and said to the audience, "I'm busy with something now, I'll rest in our tribe tonight, and I'll send you back tomorrow"
"Glass?" The field shouted, but Ruri did not respond to him and walked out of the cave.
The scene was a little discouraged, sitting on the chair and thinking about why he didn't say anything about the other party, he looked at Li Yue for help again. Whisper to him.
"Lord Sacrifice, I said I couldn't move him, why don't you make a move?"
"Take your time"
Li Yue walked around the cave, looked at the well-polished tables, chairs, weapons and the like in the cave, and asked, "You see that other people's weapons are polished so well, and they must be very powerful."
"But having strength doesn't conflict with joining our tribe!" The field is puzzled.
"Since others also have strength, then you have to change your direction and convince him"
…… The field understood, but he didn't know what the other direction meant.
In the evening, Liuli entertained them warmly, all of which were some relatively rare and good meat food. There are also a lot of green wild vegetables.
These were obviously not collected by them, but should have been exchanged for the surrounding tribes.
Li Yue was quite happy to eat. When I heard that I was going to ask them to soak in the hot springs, I was very excited.
The people of the stone tribe said that their tribe only has this one water source, and the whole clan draws water here, and only the chief can soak in this place, so it is the highest courtesy to invite them to soak in this place.
Li Yue immediately wanted to vomit after hearing this, and the people in their tribe, and the water they drank was the bath water of the leaders of the stone tribe for generations? Do you want to be so pitiful?
After arriving, Li Yue saw that the hot spring was a little calmer. Because this hot spring is so big and wide, it can be called a lake, but the water is hot, and the fish don't get a drop.
The hot springs are surrounded by boulders of different heights, and the ground is white sand and gravel that spreads into the hot springs, and white smoke continues to rise around the hot springs, and the misty smoke envelops these in it, which is very like a fairyland.
"Come on, you guys clean up next to it first and come down!" The leader of the glass took the lead in scooping water to wash his body.
Li Yue and others also followed.
"Ahh Tanuki sighed.
"It's really cool, I feel like my legs aren't so sore after walking all day"
"Hey, I was afraid of scalding my skin just now, but I didn't expect this water to be not too hot, just right!"
"Indeed!"
The "sacrificial ......" field just wanted to ask Li Yue what he thought, but his mouth almost shouted wrong, and he hurriedly changed to ask, "Tree, is this temperature hot?" ”
After all, Li Yue's body is a child, adults think it's about the same, but children don't have to.
"It's a little hot, it's okay, you don't have to worry about me, I'll go up and sit down when it's hot."
"Good!"
Liuli, who closed her eyes and recuperated on the one hand, didn't open her eyes the whole time, it seemed that she was bringing them to enjoy, Li Yue and they didn't speak when they saw the master, so they naturally took a quiet bath.
After soaking for only 10 minutes, Li Yue felt a little dizzy, and he took the lead to walk to the lake and sat on the polished jade.
The seats here are made of a variety of beautiful stones, and the stripes on them are not ordinary. Li Yue seriously suspected that these were jade, agate and other stones.
After a while, the rest of the tribe also came ashore, and everyone walked as if they were stepping on clouds under their feet, and their faces were covered with redness. Obviously stunned.
But the leader of the glass is still motionless in there.
"This leader is too powerful, and he's still soaking!"
"People are leaders, they must be soaked every day, and they are used to it!"
"Tut, tsk"
Li Yue stared at the other party for a long time, and suddenly said.
"Captain Liuli, I heard that you will communicate with the stone?"
"Right"
"Can I ask you for something, I want to find a stone, can you help me?"
Liuli opened her eyes and looked at Li Yue, as if she was considering?
"Give me the stone"
Li Yue...... He just doesn't need to look for it.
"Captain Liuli, I don't"
Liuli glanced at him and said, "Then I can't find it," and closed his eyes after speaking.
Li Yue still didn't give up.
"I heard that you have a lot of all kinds of stones here, can you let us have a tour, maybe the stones I need are inside!"
This time, Ruri didn't open his eyes, but called out to a clansman and told him to lead them.
Li Yue thanked him gratefully.
Even by the light of the fire, Li Yue couldn't see anything clearly, so the next morning he came to this "warehouse" early to look for it.
It really made him find copper! And Wu! Take these two things and show them to the Glass Chief. The other party said that they have a lot of them here, and they can bring them back if they need them, and they don't need prey.
Li Yue saw that this leader was so generous, so he sat down seriously and talked to Liuli.
"I see that there don't seem to be old people in your tribe? Is it still the prime of life when you leave? ”
Liuli, who was sitting opposite and polishing the sword with diamonds, stopped, put down the work in his hand, looked at Li Yue and said, "You are careful to observe, how can you say that?" ”
"There are many people with disabilities in your tribe, and they are all born with disabilities"
Ruri frowned, didn't speak, and motioned for him to continue.
"The reason for all of this is that there is something wrong with the conditions in which you live, and there are many ores in the area where you live, and each of them reacts chemically with it to produce toxins. Your body is absorbed by these toxins, so you are born with many disabilities and die very early. ”
Liuli on the opposite side slowly became serious following Li Yue's words.
"There is also a big problem with the water you drink, the hot spring water has substances that are beneficial to the human body, but there are more harmful substances, I think people in your tribe often have bone headaches, or the joints of the body are prone to stones. And the headache is the most, right?"
"How do you know this?" Liuli stood up suddenly, walked up to Li Yue, and asked seriously, "What do you want to say?!" ”
"Actually, these phenomena can be avoided by you, as long as you leave this place, the problems of the next generation will gradually become less or even none"
Liuli's eyes were full of hope, and the person seemed to suddenly brighten, but what did he think, "What you said is all this to let us join your tribe?" ”
"These are objective reasons, and the main reason is indeed that we need you to join our Ji tribe" Li Yue sincerely invited the other party.
"Who are you? Or who are you from the Ji tribe? "Liuli is not a fool, from the moment Li Yue opened his mouth, he felt that this was not a child's spirit at all. Not to mention the fact that the current situation of their tribe is all sharp to the source of pain.
"I am the sacrifice of the Ji tribe, the tree."
"Sacrifice?" Liuli looked at it seriously, "That's right, only the sacrifice has this ability"
Liuli was calm: "Then Lord Sacrifice, we really can get rid of this as long as we leave here?" ”
"No, after you leave, the damaged parts of your body will not be completely better, and you will still die if it is serious, but the condition of the child can get better over time, in short, as long as you continue to be attacked by the radiation and toxins produced by these minerals, your life will be extended, and your physical condition will gradually improve."
Liuli thought about it seriously and asked Li Yue, "Then will I get better like this?" ”
"You should have been born like this, it is a genetic mutation, it cannot be changed, and your child also has a certain chance of inheritance, and there is a certain chance that it will not."
"Is that so?" Liuli Nannan muttered to herself. "What's in it for you that we're joining the Ji tribe? What do you want us to do? ”
"Glass Chief, our tribe is mainly planted, it will not be as dark as you think, but it also needs to develop strong, I need a lot of minerals, and metals, and I need your ability to "talk to stones"
Liuli thought about it and replied to Li Yue seriously: "Okay, then we'll give you a reply in the afternoon."
Liuli has seen a lot of disabled and weird children in the tribe since she was a child, but the clansmen have no choice but to do anything, many weird children were strangled to death at birth, and even if they grow up, they can't live as teenagers.
He was always trying to find a way to change them, but he didn't even know the root cause of this, how sad it was, even if Li Yue didn't mention this, their tribe would take the initiative to find a solution to this.
So for what Li Yue said, it is an opportunity and a hope for them, Liuli doesn't want to miss it, abandon everything now, and follow him to the unknown environment, which is not a gamble for their future.
It depends on whether the clansmen are willing to gamble on this adventure!
"Sacrifice to your lord! We are willing to join the Ji tribe! ”
Obviously, the people are willing! This gamble, they gambled!
Li Yue was also very satisfied with the news and the two ores.
There are still many suspected silica in the stone tribe, which is also a good sign.
Since there are still 3 tribes in the field that have not been there, this time one tribe is left to migrate with the stone tribe.
Li Yue and the others continued to walk forward, this time to a tribe called Xiaoshu.
To be honest, Li Yue has been wearing it for so long, and what she wants to complain about most is that the names taken by these people are really indescribable! Whether it's a personal name, or a tribal name.
Although this small tribe feels weak, they have more than half the number of warriors! The tribe is also rich in a variety of fruits.
Well...... Fruit, speaking of the tribe from home, did not plant fruit trees. It seems that this tribe must be persuaded to join the Ji tribe -
