"Okay, we're going to stay here for about a week or two. You all know each of X's tasks, and I won't say more. ”

"You, you, you...... And a few of you, follow me on another mission! Yu Yifeng stood at the front of the team and said with a serious expression.

This is the heart of the indigenous village: a fire pit.

A pile of charcoal-like stuff burned in the fire pit, baking the surrounding ground hot. Many nasty black insects surrounded the fire pit, they wanted to get close to the heat source, and they smelled the smell of special herbs, and they did not fall.

About one or two hundred lizard natives lay lazily on the ground, as if soaking up the heat from the fire pit. At the same time, they raised their heads and looked at Yu Yifeng and the others curiously.

Now that the first objective, "Finding Indigenous Villages", has been completed, everything is well underway.

At this point, the people will be divided into two teams, one of which will stay in the village to conduct various experiments, such as learning the language of the lizardmen, investigating their customs, collecting underground biological specimens, and so on.

And the other team will go to explore the place where the "Three Metal Nuts" appeared, that is, to explore the "unknown civilization"!

That's the more important task!

Yu Yifeng and a group of experts walked forward and found the leader of the lizardmen.

The big lizard was still arguing aggressively with the old lizard, and when they saw the humans approaching, they quickly stopped arguing.

Some linguists pointed to the metal nut around the lizard's neck, stroked it, and used the indigenous vocabulary it had just learned to make it understand what it meant to be human.

Suddenly, a hint of panic flashed across the lizardman leader's face, and he danced and gestured, "Ahh ”

From the looks of it, it seems to be very scared, as if it is talking about something bad.

"What is it talking about?" Yu Yifeng asked puzzled.

The two sides began to stumble back into conversation, and the linguists had been studying for a long time before they understood what the lizardman leader was trying to say.

One of the team leaders said with some uncertainty: "It's saying: the ornaments around its neck and the related metal cutting tools were found by their ancestors in the Forbidden Lands. ”

“…… After the ancestor found the treasure, he fell under the curse of the devil and immediately fell ill and died? The rest that did not die were also cursed to be unable to reproduce. ”

The expert kept comparing the translations in the computer and said: "It is a forbidden place, a place where death is entrenched!" Anyone who enters will be tormented by illness and will die quickly...... That's how it should be. ”

Forbidden Land? What is this?

Yu Yifeng, who takes materialism as his core idea, will never believe in these gods and ghosts.

Looking at the lizard's panicked expression, Yu Yifeng thought for a while and said directly: "We are all messengers of the gods, what are we afraid of death?" You just let it take us directly, and we'll give it a gift, and ...... Definitely won't let it die! ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and a soldier behind him brought over a thick suitcase.

Of course, it is not a banknote, but a human being's careful preparation......

A gift for the natives!

Knives, lighters, and some metal spears that can be folded!

These things, glowing with a beautiful metallic sheen in the blazing firelight, were directly fascinated by the lizardman leader and the elderly chief behind him.

They didn't understand what it was, so they were fascinated by it, and a series of saliva flowed directly to the ground.

Anyway...... It must be a good thing!

The two lizards reached out to grab them, but were stopped by a soldier.

Yu Yifeng smiled and picked up a lighter from the box to demonstrate. With a "click", a small flame came out of the mouth of the lighter.

In an instant, the lizards were startled, and one by one they pointed at the flames!

"Sell big secrets!"

"Sell big secrets!"

They had been frightened so much during this time that they seemed to be numb now. One of the young lizards curiously reached out to touch the flame of the lighter, and at once it was hot and rolled on the ground, nimble like a writhing snake.

But no one paid any attention to it at all, and everyone stared at the flames with curiosity.

Two lighters, one for the chieftain and the other for the lizard leader......

When they first used it, they were a little panicked, for fear that the flames would burn them.

But soon they noticed the trick in it, and they kept "clicking" and laughing like fools coming out of their mouths.

"Sell big secrets!"

The lizards around them all looked at them with envy, fire, this is fire!

Flame has always been a punctuation of the lizard natives, it can bring light and heat, and even warm life, which is their most valuable treasure. However, the lizards were unable to completely control the flames, nor did they understand how the fire was created.

But now, the little flame is confined to the lighter, is this the power of the gods?

"Lighters, this is called lighters." An expert in linguistics demonstrated.

"Big live chicken!"

The leader of the lizardmen suddenly screamed feverishly, a word that was absent in the indigenous languages. It has just learned the human language.

"Lighters! It's a lighter! ”

"Big live chickens! Big live chickens! Even the old lizard screamed wildly. This is really a gift from the gods, so awesome that it doesn't have any doubts in its heart.

Plus sharp knives and metal spears...... Enough is enough!

The gods are so generous, and besides, the orders of the gods cannot be disobeyed!

…… Even death!

A group of lizards discussed feverishly for a while, then decided to send a few of their strongest warriors, as well as the leader of the lizardmen.

They went back and packed their bags, big bags and small bags fully armed. Then Wa La Wow Wow did a travel ceremony, made a very solemn appearance, and then officially set off.

Yu Yifeng looked at the way they were covered in leather clothes on the bed, and the large bags were full of food, and he couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "Wait a minute, you let them point the way, do you want to cross the surface?" How long does it take to make a trip? ”

Another struggle to communicate......

The language leader said with some headaches, "They say that reaching the Forbidden Land requires crossing the harsh surface. However, they don't have a concept of time yet, and they say they want to eat...... 40-50 meals of food. According to our calculations, 40 meals of food, probably, uh...... It's about 30 days away. ”

Yu Yifeng was shocked, this is going to take a month, it's too slow, right?

"You show them the satellite map and see if they can understand it. If we can, we'll take an airship. Yu Yifeng thought for a while and said.

The expert could only hold the tablet to communicate in wonder.

Until now, the language problem was a big problem, and people did not fully understand the language of the lizard natives. Luckily, their language is made up of words, which are very similar to human English, so they are still very quick to learn.

The leader of the language group compared for a long time, and found that this group of lizards had no relevant concepts such as maps and directions in their minds, and it was too difficult for them to understand them in a short time, so they could only use the elimination method.

Many lizards gathered around the scientist, and one picture after another flipped through them, all of which were flat cameras of ground reconnaissance machines. These lizards can't understand the map at all, so they have to resort to this stupid method.

If these photographs happen to capture their "forbidden places", humans can find them on their own.

"Ahh Yes! ”

Suddenly, one of the lizards screamed, and the rest followed excitedly and pointed.

Yu Yifeng walked over curiously to take a look, the photo on the tablet was an extinct volcano, about ...... away Six hundred kilometers of extinct volcanoes!

It seems that this is their destination, and it is really far away! r
