Chapter 31: See the Barbarian Elder Again

Dong Chen began to think that the two-horned beast was something, thinking that it was a "two-legged beast", "chocobo" or something, but he didn't expect that this "jiao" was "horn", and the two-horned beast that Lombal said was the colorful two-horned dragon that Dong Chen had named before.

Watching Lombal and some friends pushing small carts to get forage into the fence one by one, Dong Chen felt that it was really hard to feed this creature.

"Do you usually feed these diceratops like that? What are the "two-horned beasts" you are talking about, they are your tribe's means of transportation? ”

"yes, we ride them sometimes, and we use them to pull carts, and they have a lot of strength, and they can carry a lot of things." After being busy for a while, Lombal sat down on the tree stump next to Dong Chen and said.

"Animal-powered carts?"

Dong Chen thought about the daily life of the barbarians, and felt that there was no place where the animal power cart could be used, and he had never even seen the animal power facilities.

"Where are they usually used, and I haven't seen you have this need in the past two days?"

"It's useful, it's used in many places, it's just that I didn't bring you here before, so you can't see it." Lombal said honestly.

Saying that, Lombal looked at the two-horned dragons who were grazing and eating in the beast pen, and then stood up and said to Dong Chen, "There's nothing to do now, just come over and add some water to the sink later, and I'll show you the use of these colorful two-horned dragons." ”

"Okay, I was just trying to take a good look at your tribe."

For such a situation, Dong Chen of course agreed, so he immediately hugged Xiao Hei and followed.

The road that Lombal took Dong Chen was a road that he had not traveled before, another part of the tribe, and a place far away from Lombard's residence.

Dong Chen saw stone mills here, and there were more than one, but they were all much larger than the stone mills on the earth, and they could also crush a lot of things at once.

But with such a large stone mill, even the barbarians themselves pushed it a little hard, so animal power is used here.

A two-horned dragon was strapped to the top, and it didn't need to be driven, it was constantly walking around the stone mill, followed by a barbarian, as long as it kept sweeping the stone to grind the crushed grain, and swept the ones that were not crushed to the middle.

"Is it already so skilled? Don't even need to drive away? ”

Dong Chen stood beside and looked at the two-horned dragon road that was working.

"Yes, they're very smart," Lombal said as he stood next to Dong Chen, "they know the stone grinder, as long as they use the stone grinder a few times, they will know what to do, walking so slowly, they are not tired at all, they can crush a lot of things in a day." ”

"In addition to doing this, sometimes when we go out of the tribe with the Terran caravans, we will also put them in a car, let them pull the goods to the Terran world to sell, and then pull back the things we bought."

"I didn't expect your tribe to have this hand, it's really powerful," Looking at the two-horned dragon that kept spinning in circles, Dong Chen turned his head and asked Lombal, "By the way, have you ever been to the Terran world?" How's it going there? ”

"I haven't been there, I've just heard from people that they think I'm too young and won't let me out of the tribe." Lombal said with some frustration.

Dong Chen looked at Lombal and comforted, "It's okay, I'll always let you go when you reach the age." ”

"Don't think about this, is there anything else? Show me again, isn't this the only place where these diceratops are used? ”

"No, I'll show you."

Lombal, who was diverted by Dong Chen, immediately forgot about the loss, and then took Dong Chen to other places.

After turning around these places, Dong Chen found that the two-horned dragons were still very important to the barbarian tribes, they could not only pull large stone grinders, use them to pull carts, but also use them as mounts.

Some of the more ferocious two-horned dragons will be left alone, and they will be specially domesticated by some warriors to increase the tacit understanding, and when the tacit understanding is enough, they will accompany the warriors in battle.

The large-tonnage dicapped dragon and the large-tonnage barbarian warrior are quite powerful, and a newly grown kid like Lombal can't imagine it at all.

However, Dong Chen found that there were a lot of two-horned dragons domesticated by the barbarian tribes, which were not proportional to the animal power needed by the tribes.

Every time they traded, they were led to the Terran world by a merchant named Mehya, an old friend of the Great Elder, who would give them the best price and prevent them from being deceived by other merchants.

And this man called Mehaya will arrive in more than thirty days, and the barbarian tribes have already begun to prepare for this trade, because they must not only sell the goods hoarded by the tribe, but also buy some things that the tribe needs but cannot produce themselves.

Walked around the tribe, this time Dong Chen turned around all the places, and he didn't miss a single corner, and he found that there were many incongruities in this barbarian tribe.

They had an animal-powered cart, and the overall frame was made of wood, but the tires were made of steel, and the outer layer was wrapped in a layer of rubber, making them solid rubber tires.

On top of that, these tires have steel bearings in them, which is close to the modern manufacturing process of the earth.

According to Lombard, these things are bought in the Terran world, and they are very convenient to use, so that the car can be better pulled up, and the two-horned dragon can better pull the car.

In addition, Dong Chen also got an important news here in Lombal.

Of course, Lombal also knew about it from other barbarians who had been to the human world.

He said that there is also a kind of smoking car in the Terran world, which does not need to be pulled by a two-horned dragon, it can run by itself, and it can pull a lot of loaded cars, and one can be compared to dozens of two-horned dragon cars, which is like a big monster.

Smoke?

Running on your own?

Very long?

"Isn't this a steam train? Could it be that this world is already the age of steam? ”

"Huh? Is that long car a steam train? Is this what your Terran is called? Lombal asked, confused.

"This is what we call it there, I don't know what it is called here," Dong Chen thought for a moment and asked, "Are you far from the nearest Terran world here?" Why do you never see you go to the Terran world by yourself, and you have to let people take you with you? Just to not be deceived? ”

Hearing Dong Chen ask this, Lombal scratched his head a little embarrassed and said, "Yes...... Let's go, our great elder said that our people look stupid, and they are brainless, and they are easy to be deceived, so they called Uncle Mehaya to take us. ”

"And it's not too safe along the way, you may encounter some ferocious monsters, although it's better to carry a weapon and go together."

Well, knowing this, Dong Chen doesn't plan to go over by himself in a short time, so it's better to stay in this barbarian tribe for a while.

It is much better to treat this place as a "novice village", try to learn more about this peaceful and friendly barbarian tribe, and then be fully prepared to go to the human world, which is much better than going to the human world in a hurry.

"By the way, Lombal, can you take me to your Grand Elder? I have something to ask him for. After thinking about it, Dong Chen asked Lombal Dao.

"Yes, but what are you going to do with the Great Elder?" Lombal wondered.

"Ask him to borrow a few books to read, and he should agree, right?"

"Of course he agreed, he should be pleased," Lombal said, scratching his head, "but what are you reading for, that thing is the most boring, I never read it." ”

"You don't know that "books" are good things. Dong Chen looked like you didn't understand, "It's what makes me so powerful." ”
