Chapter 395: Bow and Arrow

Men have their own taboos. For example, when the wife takes a bath, others are forbidden to watch; For example, when you pick your feet and masturbate, you must not be seen; For example, when you are fierce **** little brother in front of the goddess, you must not answer the phone, otherwise you will be frightened and cause lifelong inaction.

Yes, Villatra is a barbarian.

All the villagers of Moli Zaka are barbarians.

They have a special constitution that is extremely strong, but they are still no match for the mutants entrenched in the mountains. Those monsters have already bred yellow hedron in their minds. Similar substances have been discovered in the future world. However, the yellow spar found in this time and space and the spar of Su Hao's original world are fundamentally two different things.

The hedron found on mutants is much purer, with almost no impurities. Thanks to Wang Qinian's special application technology in spar energy, Su Hao carried a lot of spar-driven machinery on this trip. If it weren't for the extraordinary gravity environment that destroyed the machinery, Su Hao would have used the hedron he obtained to set up a small power station in the village.

The meat of mutants can be eaten, and the meat of barbarians can be eaten. This is the biggest takeaway from Su Hao's conversation with Villatola.

There is no doubt that both mutants and savages possess human genes. Cannibalism is undoubtedly a sin, but it becomes natural and logical to eat creatures that resemble oneself but are definitely not of the same kind.

Villatla himself has said that he has lived for hundreds of years, and the average life expectancy of the villagers of Molizaka is also outrageous. From this point of view, Su Hao has every reason to believe that they are not pure humans.

Mutants make even more sense. No matter how you look at them, they look like higher evolutions of mutated creatures in abandoned cities on Earth. What's more, although Su Hao did not find silver bones in their bodies, he found purer crystals.

It has been a long time since Moli Zaka has caught decent prey. What makes a decent prey? Of course, it refers to large prey such as deer and wild boar. All right! This is Su Hao's biased idea of applying the thinking of earthlings, but Villala's idea is similar to this.

The mountains outside the village are so large that even if you can't go deep because of the dangers, you can always catch some small animals on the periphery. Villatla was almost in tears when he talked about the last time he saw the red-tailed grouse decades ago. That means that similar animals are completely extinct around the village of Molizaka.

The basis of animal survival is plants, and it doesn't make sense to have dense plants but no animals.

The only explanation is that these animals encounter predators that are much more powerful than they are.

All of the dissected mutants in the pyramid have sharp teeth. Sharp and hard Cheng dΓΉ is completely standard for meat species. Their masseter muscles are so well developed that they can chew even hard skulls. Su Hao found undigested remains such as groundhogs in the stomachs of pigmen, proving more and more that mutants are not picky eaters. They act as hunters in the mountains and hunt other animals for food. Occasionally, I would like to change my taste and go down the mountain to storm the village to hunt giants.

It's not difficult to figure out the relationship. The reason why Viratra is so confused is entirely because it has never been out of this village, has never been in contact with the bigger world, more people. Su Hao came from another time and space, and the wisdom and experience he possessed were completely beyond Vilatella's imagination. Especially from the perspective of a bystander, it is natural to look at the problem more thoroughly.

"Take me to the pyramid and take me to the location where you sensed the existence of the main god."

Su Hao's words have become an order. By the time he walked out of the shack, the villagers kneeling outside had spontaneously moved out of the way. Veratora quickened his pace and trotted all the way to the side. Its groveling appearance showed the dignity of a priest in the slightest.

Su Hao walked quickly, with undisguised sarcasm in his words: "You have been waiting for so long by a liar. Don't you see the slightest flaw? Never doubted? ”

These words were, of course, to Villatra.

The village of Molizaka and the mutants are two different groups. Every fight leads to death. In all fairness, the combat power of the mutants is actually similar to that of the villagers, but they have more advantages in terms of mutant weapons and individual speed. In the case of the pig-shaped mutant who was killed in battle, as long as two villagers who knew how to fight worked closely together, it was easy to find a weak point and kill him. The same is true for dealing with flexible mosquito-like mutants. They are even better than the powerful pigmen. Since they occupy the location of the wall, they can be ...... with a bow and arrows

That's right, bows and arrows!

Su Hao stood up suddenly, and an incredible look appeared on his face subconsciously.

He turned around and stared at Veratra who was standing next to him with a very strange gaze, and his voice was so strange that even Su Hao himself felt terrible.

"Sue me, where did those weapons come from when we just walked out of the passage?"

Villatla didn't understand the changes in Su Hao's body, so he could only answer honestly: "We made it ourselves." ”

"You know how to forge weapons?"

Su Hao's voice began to tremble: "There are mutants everywhere outside the village, where did you get the ore?" How do you refine it? The materials of those weapons are very good, there is no coal mine around, and the weeds inside and outside the village are only enough for you to use as daily firewood at most, how do you complete the metal smelting and crafting? ”

Veratra felt nothing but an indescribable fear enveloping her. The source was obviously Su Hao, but it didn't understand why Su Hao suddenly released such a terrifying aura. Villatla knelt down again, trembling: "Those weapons have been stored for hundreds of years. It's been that way for as long as I can remember. Some of them are even older than me. ”

"You're just fighting with that stuff all the time? Isn't there no wear and tear? ”

"Absolutely."

"And how do you fix it?"

Veratora froze, raised his head, and said tremblingly: "Your Excellency, just now you mentioned the word "coal". I don't know what that is. However, according to what you mean, I deduce that it should be something that can be burned, right? ”

Su Hao narrowed his eyes and nodded gloomily.

"The "coal" you are talking about should be the same thing as the "charcoal" we know. ”

As he spoke, Vilatra pointed to the south of the village: "There is our charcoal pit, where every once in a while enough charcoal can be dug up. ”

The old man's explanation was a little inexplicable, but Su Hao understood some hidden meanings. At this time, several "worker bees" came from the direction of the pyramid. Su Hao waved his hand at them, forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "Take me over to see that kind of charcoal." Right now! Immediately! Right away! ”

It was a circular clearing about 100 meters in diameter. The soil on the ground is no different from the soil that covers the entire village. The color is grayish-black, sticky, soft when exposed to water, and hard when dried.

"This is our coal-farm."

Vilatra diligently walked ahead and introduced: "The coals are buried underneath, and when we need them, we dig them out by turning over the layers of soil. This thing is very resistant to burning, and it is an indispensable fuel for smelting metal. For hundreds of years, we have been refurbishing and recasting the old weapons left by our ancestors, which has been maintained until now. ”

Su Hao glanced at Veratora and asked, "How much is the reserve down here?" ”

Veratrana was stunned: "Reserves? What reserves? ”

Looking at the old man's idiotic expression, Su Hao knew that his question would never be answered. He sighed and asked another question, "How much coal did you dig out of here?" How many unexcavated parts are underneath? ”

"All the charcoal that was dug up has been consumed. If you need an accurate number, ask the specific person in charge of managing the furnace. ”

Villatora still felt incomprehensible to Su Hao's question, and his voice was a little hesitant: "But Your Excellency, you asked how many parts have not been excavated, this ...... I don't really know. ”

Su Hao frowned again: "Can't you see how much you dig up, and how much is left?" ”

Villatola's expression suddenly flickered, and his gaze towards Su Hao became more complicated. After a long time, he tentatively asked, "Do you mean, want to know how much charcoal is left?" ”

Su Hao also locked on to the other party with his gaze and nodded deeply.

"How many were before they were dug up, and after they were dug up, they will still be the same as before."

Villatola's words sound like a fantasy: "Carboniferous is something that grows freely. We can only harvest once a year, and the quantity can fill that warehouse. ”

As he spoke, it raised its hand and pointed to a large shack on the north side of the village.

"The charcoal doesn't need to be managed, and after digging it, the original floating soil is covered, and the next year it will grow to fill the original space."

"The Lord God has warned us that coal is a very precious fuel, and that it should only be used to smelt and forge weapons, and that it is forbidden to use it for cooking."

"If it weren't for the coal, we wouldn't have any weapons to use against those monsters."

Veratola stood next to him chattering endlessly, and Su Hao, who was covered with iron-faced, was already about to bring a sapper shovel and swung it vigorously into the ground. The metal used to make shovels comes from the earth, but it's barely enough to deal with the loose dirt here. A few minutes later, Su Hao had already dug a shallow pit with a diameter of two meters and a depth of more than 30 centimeters. As the swinging tip of the shovel fell, it slammed into some kind of hard substance, and was cracked open in a clear gap.

Su Hao squatted down, brushed away the dirt with his fingers, and picked up a fist-sized black stone.

That's right! This is indeed coal, what Vilatra calls "coal".

Of course, Su Hao knows what coal is.

It is the result of hundreds of millions of years of crustal movement of ancient plants. They were struck, squeezed, buried for billions of years, and after countless accumulations and crushes, they finally became black stones to burn. If the word "growth" must be used to describe it, then adding the time suffix at the end must be an astronomical length.

What did Villatra just say?

As long as the floating soil is covered after digging, a new charcoal will grow here after a year.

In just one year, coal can grow in such a damn place?

Is this guy kidding me?

Or does it think that Lao Tzu is a fool who can deceive **** at will?

Su Hao didn't have any expression on his face, but the few "worker bees" who followed behind him clearly felt his anger. No one is more familiar with the mood of the Queen Bee than they are. Without an order, the "worker bees" grabbed their weapons one after another, and looked at Villatla even more coldly.

Silence lasted nearly two minutes. Su Hao tried to calm himself and did not explode, but asked in a voice so cold that even he couldn't believe it: "Is there so much charcoal that you dig out every time?" ”

Veratrana was not a fool, it had already sensed that Su Hao had become hostile to him. It panicked, but there was no way to solve the current predicament. Veratora stared at every slight change in Su Hao's face, and listened to every word that came out of Su Hao's mouth with straight ears. As soon as the question was spoken, it blurted out almost without thinking: "Yes, the number is the same every time it is excavated." ”

Su Hao's eyes became as sharp as a knife, and his words were irresistible: "Take me to see, go now." ”

The door of the large shack was hidden and pushed open with a flick of the flick. There are no valuables here, and as for the "lock", a sophisticated device used to prevent thieves, I am afraid that in the current world, it has not yet been invented.

The house was empty, and although the terrain was elevated, the structure of the wooden house was very loose, and there was no waterproofing of it. There was a lot of black crushed coal scattered on the ground to the south of the house. Su Hao walked over, bent down and picked up a piece, put it in the palm of his hand, and looked at it carefully by the firelight.

Coming out of the warehouse, Villatla took the group to the blacksmith shop next to it according to Su Hao's request.

There are furnaces, iron felt, a complete range of iron-striking tools, and some simple weapons that have been formed and have not yet been sharpened into openings.

Su Hao found a pile of charcoal next to the iron felt. This shows that the villagers of Molizaka have learned how to make extremely hard steel. From a modern point of view, the facilities here are undoubtedly primitive, but in any case, this is a world where gravity is much higher than that of the earth.

Su Hao's gaze swept over the rough embryo of weapons placed on the wall, and finally stopped on Veratra, and asked, "Why aren't there any bows and arrows here?" ”

When he walked out of the passage and got the weapon in the pyramid, Su Hao had already had this problem.

The bow and arrow should be regarded as the greatest progress in the age of human cold weapons. Its appearance means that the attack range is increased exponentially, and it can even produce a similar effect of curved shelling in the form of "projectile" in later generations. It is no exaggeration to say that this is the original prototype of firearms in later generations.

When exactly did primitive people on earth start using bows and arrows? Su Hao did not have an accurate answer to this. Humanity has long discovered the delicate balance between distance and power. For example, throwing guns, such as throwing stones, and large bed crossbows, stone throwing carts, etc., which appeared later.

The village of Moli Zaka is not a paradise. It's just a wall away from death. More than 100 meters away from the main entrance of the village are the mountains, which have become an important source of food for mutants. Although Villatla previously described the history of the great Molizaka village, in Su Hao's view, it was actually a process of prosperity and decline.

How many mutants are there outside the village? Still an unanswered question. Su Hao has been in this world for less than twenty-four hours, but what he saw was already shocking.

Neither in the village of Molizaka nor in the interior of the pyramids is the familiar spiral script.

Local natives such as Vilatra are clearly still from primitive societies, they have no written language, but they have a rigorous and mature language system. The most bizarre thing is that Su Hao has never learned this kind of awkward pronunciation, and all the "worker bees" under him have never been in contact, but after coming out of the passage, everyone can actually use it proficiently. If this phenomenon is explained by terms such as "electromagnetic consciousness indoctrination", can it be understood that all knowledge can be forcibly injected into the human brain by similar means? We don't need to learn, we are born to be an active protein reservoir?

They didn't even know Sinnoh and Ahab, and the names of the villagers of Molizaka were pronounced completely differently from the two Atlanteans killed in the underwater pyramids. In contrast, the slain messenger Hababanola has a pronunciation resemblance to the villagers here.

Could it be that the village of Molizaka, like the earth, is also a created world? All the people here are makers?

There is only one entrance to the passage to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. Su Hao: They entered completely under the guidance of the beam. There are no forks in the road, no turns, and no options such as second and third exits. Is it connected to Earth and the difference is just gravity?

Moreover, they did not even have bows and arrows.

This is not normal.

The smelting water in Moli Zaka Village has reached a very high level. Villagers can craft hard, sharp swords or small daggers. However, for the "bow and arrow" in Su Hao's mouth, Veratrana looked dazed, and his face was full of confusion.

The old man tried not to be angry with Su Hao's humble tone and asked, "What is a bow and arrow?" ”

Oh, yes! What is Bow and Arrow?

Su Hao really wanted to make a standard bow and arrow shooting action as a demonstration. He soon discovers that no amount of explanation can be effective in the face of a person who cannot understand his own words. It's like when you tell a poor man who has been living in a ravine for many years and earns less than 500 yuan a year, and the lady's designer slippers have to cost tens of thousands of dollars to buy, the poor man will only think that you are a crazy person who talks nonsense, and he himself is a normal person with a clear mind.

There were dry sticks and ropes in the blacksmith shop. Su Hao used these two things to make a simple bow and arrow. The wooden pole, which was not equipped with an arrowhead, flew more than ten meters in the air before falling to the ground. When Su Hao picked up the "arrow", he found that Veratola's eyes had widened, and his face was full of incredulous expressions. Often.
