996, Where Did the Gunpowder Come From (Page 1/1)

"At least half a month at a time. Ajid said after a moment's thought.

"Do they all ride camels?"

"Yes, they ride camels, but don't underestimate them, they're pretty fast. Ajid said with a serious expression.

"Then I want to ask you, man, why aren't they fast at all when we're in the desert?" Yang Tianlong said half-jokingly and half-seriously.

"Man, that's a good question, but in the desert, camels aren't slow, but I'm not sure if we're going to have any trouble on the way, so I didn't let them speed up, because that would be a great drain on their stamina. Ajid explained.

After seeing that this was the case, Yang Tianlong understood what was going on.

He didn't say anything more, just nodded with a look of realization.

Soon, the two of them walked to the place where the villagers gathered, and saw dozens of young and strong men wearing red cloaks, receiving lectures from the elders of the tribe.

"Do they still use primitive javelins?" Yang Tianlong asked with some surprise looking at the extremely polished javelins in the hands of those adult men.

"Actually, they also have powder guns, but they are more majestic with javelins in their hands. Ajid whispered.

"Gunpowder gun, are you sure it's a gunpowder gun?" Yang Tianlong couldn't help frowning and asked.

Ajid nodded, "I'm sure it's a powder gun, and Durada has several of them." ”

"They actually have gunpowder guns?" Yang Tianlong was taken aback in his heart, you must know that in this society, gunpowder guns have long been eliminated, even if these guys can go outside to buy, but the manufacturer is gone, so the gunpowder used in their gunpowder factory?

"Did they make the gunpowder themselves or buy it?" asked Yang Tianlong.

"Of course they made it themselves, do you think they'll have the purchasing power?" asked Ajid with a smile.

Yang Tianlong nodded, and then he became very interested in how these villagers made gunpowder.

After some inquiry, Ajid said that he didn't know how the villagers made gunpowder, but if he was interested, he could ask Durada when he met Durada later.

"Okay, then please. Yang Tianlong smiled.

The departure ceremony of the hunters of Buha Village was simple, but it was very solemn, and every warrior who went out showed great determination on his face, even if there were two or three of them with baby faces, they also showed great seriousness.

After the patriarch had finished his remarks on the march, the warriors jumped on the backs of the camels with great dexterity, and after firing the gunpowder guns in the hands of the adult men of the village, they set out on the march.

Durada was among the gunpowder gunners, and when the ceremony was over, he also spotted Ajid and them coming.

"So early. Durada asked with a smile on his face.

"I couldn't sleep, so I got up and walked. Ajid said.

"The guy asked him about the powder gun. Yang Tianlong couldn't help but whisper to Ajid.

Ajid nodded, and then asked Durada about the source of the gunpowder gun.

"It was sold to us by a guy named Ruls. Duraha said without thinking.

"What did you buy him from, dollars or euros or Egyptian pounds?" Ajid asked quickly.

Durada laughed, shook his head, and said, "We exchanged cow dung and horse dung for him." ”

He said they traded cow dung for horse dung with a man named Luls. Ajid translated Durada's words.

After hearing that this was the case, Yang Tianlong was taken aback, he couldn't imagine that there was such a deal, and he had a vague sense of foreboding in his heart.

"Then you ask that Luls, what does he need all that cow dung and horse dung for?" Yang Tianlong hurriedly asked.

Ajid nodded, and then quickly translated.

"He said he needed those things to make fertilizer. Durada said honestly.

"Make fertilizer?" Yang Tianlong frowned.

"Is there anything greasy here?" Seeing that Yang Tianlong's face was a little wrong, Ajid couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

"I always felt something was wrong, but I couldn't say it. Yang Tianlong said after thinking about it.

"You ask where that Luls lives?" Yang Tianlong asked again.

Soon, Yang Tianlong got the answer he wanted, Ruls lived in Aswan Province, but they didn't know the specific place, because Ruls basically came to do business with them once every two months.

"When was the last time he came?" Yang Tianlong hurriedly asked.

"It wasn't long before I left. Ajid quickly replied.

"Not long after you left?" Yang Tianlong gasped, it seemed that their luck was a little bad.

"Yes, with some regrets. Ajid spread his hands and shrugged.

"Well, thank him for me. Yang Tianlong stretched out his hand to Durada with a happy face.

Durada returned to the hut with them, and when they arrived, Yang Tianlong's men also got up.

"Let's eat first, and then Durada will take us to the culvert, and after the visit, we'll have to go back where we are. Agid said.

"Can we get to Zabu Village today?" Yang Tianlong couldn't help but ask.

After thinking for a moment, Ajid nodded, and said, "Today I will make the camels run faster, so that we can also reach Zabu Village when it gets dark." ”

The papaya powder they ate for breakfast was what Durada said, Yang Tianlong didn't eat this this time, when they were in Bunia, they would also eat some papaya powder from time to time, because the nutrients contained in this thing were still quite rich.

After breakfast, Durada led them into the culvert of the village.

At the entrance to the culvert are several towering poplar trees, which Durada says are under the rhizomes.

Sure enough, they found a small hole in the entrance under one of the largest poplar trees.

The small hole is indeed very small, and they can only crawl into it, but fortunately, the villagers in the village often climb in to get water, so the passage under them has already become very smooth.

After crawling zigzag for less than ten meters, suddenly the space inside suddenly became spacious.

They could hear even the sound of running water inside.

And the humidity in the air is quite high.
