Chapter 10 Salt Mines and Wild Boars

More than a week has passed since the conflict with the wolf rabbit, and Sun Licheng has begun to adapt to his current life, completely becoming a primitive person, uh, no, a primitive goblin.

Over the past few days, a lot of things have happened, some happy and some sad.

Let's start with the happy things.

First of all, Sun Licheng's javelin skill level skyrocketed. For a target of about 20 meters, Sun Licheng has been able to achieve the appearance of eight or nine out of ten.

Secondly, Sun Licheng began to build his own small wooden house. Since discovering voles, Sun Licheng's food has become stable and he has more time to work. He put the creation of a wooden house on his agenda. However, compared with the ground shack, the production process and requirements of the wooden house are much higher, and it has to be drawn slowly. Because there are no tools to take advantage of, Sun Licheng is still in the stage of preparing wood.

In the end, Sun Licheng made a transformation of the fur clothes. Compared with the previous prey, the wolf rabbit and the big vole have much softer fur, so Sun Licheng replaced some of the fur on his body with softer rabbit skin and vole skin, which is much more comfortable. In the process, he even made a large pants for himself out of rabbit skin.

In this place, no one will laugh at the wind underneath, but as a modern person, uh, or a goblin with the soul of a modern earthling, Sun Licheng insists that it is still very important to have a pants.

The ideal is beautiful, the reality is the backbone, and the rabbit skin pants that have not been treated are hard. After putting it on, Sun Licheng tried to run a few steps, but he screamed when he grinded, so he could only throw it away helplessly and continue to live a life of "pulling the wind".

Let's talk about the melancholy things.

At the top of the list is that the wolves and rabbits of the Great Meadow have begun to migrate towards the edge of the meadow. Under the leadership of the big gray rabbit, there is a vague tendency to close the big meadow, and Sun Licheng's work to dig voles will be seriously affected.

Sun Licheng was very angry at the domineering behavior of the rabbits, so he ......

There was nothing else, and as soon as he thought of the big gray rabbit that could send lightning, Sun Licheng withered.

"God is unfair!"

Sun Licheng could only look up to the sky and howl.

Secondly, Sun Licheng's physique has declined a little. After traveling into this world for so long, Sun Licheng has not eaten any salt. Although the blood of animals contains some salt, with the increase of Sun Licheng's exercise, he has been completely in a state of making ends meet.

Of course, Sun Licheng didn't know that his greatest luck was that the god in his body was still asleep and didn't come to trouble him.

The reason why the gods are asleep is related to the fact that Sun Licheng practiced Tai Chi from time to time, and His Majesty has been busy reinforcing his shell, and the consumption of divine power is a bit large.

............

With the passage of time, Sun Licheng's understanding of this land has become deeper and his perception has become stronger.

Now, Sun Licheng has entered the woods, and he can find those animals and birds in action from afar. Of course, Sun Licheng didn't dare to mess with those birds and sparrows in the trees, he didn't want to mess with a group of crazy people, every battle was a loss-making deal.

Amid the laughter of the birds, Sun Licheng walked along the riverbank towards the woods. After walking a short time, he noticed a group of animals in front of him.

This is a herd of sika deer that are leisurely munching on the grass. These sika deer are no different from those on earth, with a pair of branch-shaped antlers on their round heads, and a pair of trumpet ears under the antlers, which are occasionally propped up, as if eavesdropping on the surrounding movements.

Although Sun Licheng was very careful, the sound of taking off the javelin startled the deer, and they fled in panic.

Secretly scolding his bad luck, Sun Licheng could only continue to explore the forest.

It may be that the sound of the sika deer running away frightened the other animals, and after walking for a long time, Sun Licheng did not find any prey.

Just a little frustrated, the group of sika deer appeared in front of them.

Sika deer are not good at hunting, and their weapons are scum, Sun Licheng is ready to follow this group of deer this time to see what good things can be found.

For himself, an outsider, to be exact, an alien goblin, the sika deer belongs to the local aborigines, and is clear about everything around.

A long-distance training began, and the sika deer herd took Sun Licheng to trek through mountains and rivers, and on the third day, it really brought a huge surprise.

Guided by the sika deer, Sun Licheng walked through a narrow valley and soon saw a sparkling river, coming from the mountains and winding its way to the north, with towering pine trees growing on both sides of the river. Many alpine antelopes and elk drink water by the river, and the land on both sides of the river is moist and fertile, which is very beautiful and gorgeous.

The herd of sika deer walked across the creek to the foot of a hill and began to drink by a small pool.

To Sun Licheng's surprise, the sika deer who drank the water did not leave, but walked to a mountain wall, and stretched out their tongues to lick the rock wall one after another, which made Sun Licheng very surprised.

After the sika deer left, Sun Licheng stayed in place to observe, and some animals came here one after another to drink water and lick the stone walls, and even a few huge mammoths. After all the animals left, Sun Licheng hurried to the somewhat rose-colored stone wall, stretched out his tongue and licked it, and immediately frowned.

Sun Licheng only felt that his tongue was salty, and the taste was very pure.

"This is a rock salt mine!", Sun Licheng cheered excitedly.

Salt is an essential mineral for all living things, and it is also an important basis for the evolution of civilization, and it is a very important raw material. For example, the fur on Sun Licheng's body can be tanned by alum and salt, and the tanned fur not only has no fishy smell, but is also very soft. With table salt, the preservation period of food will be greatly extended, which can reduce the time Sun Licheng spent hunting and expand Sun Licheng's range of activities.

Rock salt is a salt deposit formed by the evaporation of brine in a closed basin, and the ore layer is generally a few meters to more than 300 meters thick, and occurs as evaporation products near salt springs. Most of the rock salt is impure, containing calcite, potash, and sand and clay, and has a bitter taste, but the rock salt here is so pure that it can be eaten as is.

It can be said that this is the biggest good news since he came to this world.

............

When the so-called luck comes, it can't be stopped.

Soon after Sun Licheng discovered the rock salt mine, he found that there were quite a lot of animals here, and it was a very good hunting ground. Especially when he saw a herd of wild boars, he couldn't resist the temptation of food anymore and decided to do it here.

There were about seven or eight pigs in this herd, and the largest weighed no more than one hundred and fifty pounds. There are also a few small wild boars in the wild boar herd, which is a wild boar family. What reassures Sun Licheng is that male wild boars under 200 catties will not have fangs.

"Landing traps? No, the ground is not easy to dig. Gravity traps? no, by the time the big rock is found, the boars will be gone. Bouncy traps?alas, and to cut branches. Trouble......"

Sun Li became entangled in what trap to choose, and his face was full of constipation.

Thinking about it, Sun Licheng slapped his thigh and said to himself: "This group of wild boars has no combat effectiveness, why bother so much? Rush up to solve them!"

After Sun Licheng carefully surveyed the walking route of the wild boar herd, he chose a tree next to the path they had to pass and climbed up. In order not to be discovered by the wild boars, he treated the traces and smells left behind with saprolite leaves before going up the tree to prevent the wild boars from smelling the odor.

After waiting for a while, the wild boars came. Looking at it up close, the stripes on the baby boar cub are obvious, and the adult wild boar looks very stout. Wild boars are different from domestic pigs, with small ears, short tails, long mouths, dense hair, black hooves, and many ugliness, but they appear full of vitality.

Sun Licheng waited until the half-big boar at the end of the team passed by, and pounced, and the spear in his hand pierced the little boar's neck. Ang screamed, and the other wild boar cubs who were moving froze for a moment and then fled in all directions, and the pounced cub was rolling desperately on the ground, and the woods were mixed up for a while.

Any animal has a natural instinct to care for its cubs. The leader of the team, the male boar, heard the scream of the little wild boar behind him, turned his head suddenly, stared at Sun Licheng who had not fully stood up with red eyes, snorted twice in his nose, moved his limbs, and rushed over quickly. When approaching the target, the big wild boar closed its big mouth, lowered its big head, and arched directly towards Sun Licheng, who had just stood firm.

Sun Licheng didn't dare to take it hard, dodged sideways, and at the moment when the wild boar ran past him, he pulled out the Demonic Beast Bone Knife with his right hand and stabbed it into the back of the wild boar. The boar howled miserably. Although the Warcraft knife is not big, it is very sharp, especially the bones on the blade, like a small saw. With the speed of the boar, the knife cut a long gaping hole in the boar's back.

The boar, which was not very big, was still fighting, but relying on the instinct of the cub, and now it was badly damaged, and when he put out the idea of fighting, he howled miserably and rushed into the woods without looking back.

Sun Licheng, who was holding a demonic beast bone knife, waited for the violent counterattack of the legendary injured male boar, but for a long time, nothing happened except for the little piglet that had contracted on the ground and the pool of blood.

"I'll ...... Is that okay?"

That was true, the hunt was completed dramatically, and the harvest was a small boar cub the size of a half. made Sun Licheng feel very like taking his head in the chaos of the army.

Even though this little piglet weighs dozens of pounds, Sun Licheng is very satisfied. After all, his weapon is too scummy, but just now, the spearhead of the wooden spear was destroyed. Fortunately, the boar ran away, if he really encountered a big boar of three or four hundred catties, Sun Licheng could only run away.

This time he came out not only to find salt, but also to hunt a wild boar, and Sun Licheng gained a huge harvest. He cut wattles from the nearby woods, made a basket, carried the little boar on his back, and loaded several large rock salt mines to return to his camp. There is more work waiting for him there.

We've got salt......
