Volume 2: The Loose World Chapter 129: Re-examination (31) Daze
The deal was reached, the beach leader and Yu left to prepare, and the two old witches continued to chat, and the tribal chats in the primitive era were nothing more than all kinds of ferocious beasts, all kinds of strange plants, and all kinds of rare treasures.
As well as the strange things that have happened in various tribes and places, the wood witch talks about all kinds of plants and beasts, and the beach witch tells about the pattern and current situation of various places, so that the wood witch, who has been in isolation all the year round, has got a lot of news.
For example, the current pattern of the mainland, the Li Wang Department, the War King Department, and the Wind King Department are divided into three powers, and the three kings are in constant war all year round, fighting for land, water, salt, spirit, and mineral veins, and they are fighting inextricably.
The mainland territory is divided into ten percent from south to north, the Li Wang Department occupies fifty percent of the south, the War King Department occupies three percent of the central and northern regions, and the Wind King Department occupies two percent of the northern region.
Strictly speaking, the alien race is also a human race, but after years of development, there are many differences with humans, take the Wind King Department as an example, they are no different from humans, except for an extra pair of wings.
There are five Hou tribes under the Wind King's department, and the northern region is the most barren, from west to east, in order, there are lonely loess, erupting volcanic areas, barren rocky forests, cold glacial veins, and dangerous coastlines.
The Quihou Department of the Chaotic Stone Forest is a giant with a height of more than two zhang, as solid as a rock, and infinite strength; the Soil Waiting Department of the Loess is short in stature, with strong arms, and is good at digging holes in the ground.
The brave part of the glacier has degenerated senses and has no sympathy, and is extremely ferocious and fearless in fighting, while the sea part of the coastline, with its gills and scales, can breathe in the water and move freely.
The flames in the volcano have limbs that are no different from ordinary people, but their body temperature is very terrifying, and they can touch and ignite trees. The combat effectiveness of the five divisions is very high, but the living environment is harsh, it is difficult to give birth, and the number of clansmen is very small.
There are six candidates under the War King's Division, and the terrain in the central and northern parts is changeable, and the scenery changes more frequently, with dense jungles, steep mountains, bitter cold plateaus, humid Daze, arid deserts, and barren wastelands.
The forest hou department to which the wood tribe belongs controls the vast two thousand miles of jungle, and the Zehou department, to which the Tan tribe belongs, controls the big river and the river beaches on both banks, as well as the vast Daze on the other bank, all belong to the war king department.
In addition, there are also the mountain weather department that masters the mountains, the weather department that masters the plateau, the sand weather department that masters the desert, and the wilderness department that masters the wasteland, and there are six subordinate departments, all of which are very brave and good at fighting, and there are many people.
The location of the jungle is northern, with the sea in the east, the vast Daze in the south, the wilderness wasteland in the west, and the broad coastline in the north.
Li Wangbu has nine Hou tribes, territory, people, are the most on the mainland, the southern landform changes are relatively small, grasslands, plains, basins, hills, wind erosion desert, the area is extremely vast.
Cattle and horses, sheep and deer have raised a lot of meat and mounts, the grass department is good at planting medical treatment, the rain department is good at clouds and rain, the business department is good at trade exchanges, and the military department is good at arranging formations and battles.
The Zhihou Department is the henchman of the Li Wangbu, they are the commanders of each Hou Ministry, they have extremely smart brains, can effectively use all resources, and perfectly plan every battle, which is the foundation of the Li Wangbu.
The Mu tribe has been under the command of the Lin Hou Department for more than 30 years, while the Tan tribe has been attached to the Ze Hou Department for 300 years, and has accumulated from generation to generation, and has a basic understanding of the general pattern of the mainland.
The grasp of the surrounding information, far above the wood tribe, the wood witch knocked on the side, got a lot of news, benefited a lot, and the beach witch also learned a lot of usable herbs from him, which is not a loss.
The next day, the Tan tribe finished preparing and began to carry the Mu tribe across the river, using a moored raft, the number of Mu tribes crossing the river was quite large, there were two hundred warriors alone, as well as a hundred war horses, and three big wolves.
Before leaving, Mu Wu handed the people of the River tribe a letter scroll sealed with a bamboo pipe, and when they were traded, they took it to the fire branch, recording the situation by the river, emphasizing crocodile skins, buffalo horns, and the beach tribe.
The three are very useful, let you adapt to the situation, the hunt that should be hunted, the friendship that should be good, but don't worry about the river tribe peeking, anyway, it is the tribe's script, even if they show it, they can't understand it.
The raft is three zhang long and one zhang wide, it is an ordinary log, which is wrapped and bound with vines, the means are rough and unbearable, and the materials are mediocre, but when it runs in the water, it will not be attacked by river monsters.
There were some small herbivorous fish, surrounding the raft, and the wood witch was very curious about this, and went closer to check, and under the water at the edge of the raft, he took out a soaked fine net bag, containing colorful plants.
Before he could take a closer look, he was hurriedly stopped by the soldiers, he put down the net bag, clapped his hands, and found such a net bag on the other three sides of the raft, and asked curiously: "What is this?"
"This is the beast repellent grass of the Zehou Department, soaked on the edge of the raft, the fierce big fish and river monsters, will not come to attack again, those docile little fish will find themselves. "The Tan Witch stayed in the tribe, and the Tan Leader answered for him.
Mu Wu opened a special vision, only to see that the surrounding net bags, emitting an invisible fragrance, those carnivorous big fish and river monsters, disgusted to dodge and escape, and those herbivorous fish and chickens surrounded one by one.
Seeing the warriors of the Tan tribe, he took out a big shabby net and began to catch these grass carp, the broken net was actually made of twine, Mu Wu asked, "Can these beast repellent grasses be traded?"
"It's something from the Sawa Division. The Tan leader shook his head, noticed his gaze again, and continued: "Gu is also from the Zehou Ministry, it is the Tan tribe, and it is traded from the Zehou Ministry, and it can no longer be traded to you. ”
Nodding, Mu Wu didn't force it anymore, but he thought that when he entered Daze, he could go to the Zehou Department and trade some beast repellent grass, which was in the depths of Daze, and there was twine, I don't know if the sackcloth was made.
Soon, the raft team successfully crossed the river, and the warriors of the Wood tribe pulled their horses and walked down the river beach......
It is very dangerous in Daze, no less than the jungle, the lakes are dotted, the weather is rainy all the year round, the precipitation is abundant, the climate is humid, you can see streams and swamps everywhere, shrubs and weeds, all over the clumps.
The most dangerous thing is the swamp, the obvious swamp that can be seen is okay, you can walk around, and there are some places, looking like the ordinary ground, there is no difference, and when you step on it, you can't pull it out.
Fortunately, when he was on the river beach, Mu Wu asked the soldiers to cut a lot of wood and take it with them, and when they encountered light and brittle wood on the road, they also cut a lot of spare.
It's not a swamp, pick it up and keep walking, if it's a swamp, throw a few more, build a temporary driftwood bridge, let the warrior war horse pass by, and when you come back, you can still follow these driftwood to find the way you came.
In addition, the leather boots and hooves of warriors and horses were modified with twigs and rattan grass, which increased the buoyancy of the limbs, and even if you accidentally stepped into the swamp, you would not immediately sink into it, greatly reducing the danger.
However, in addition to the nightmarish swamps, there are also many monsters in Osawa, such as the common Mizuse, vole, frog, and water monkey, the flying crane and egret that can soar, and the wild duck, geese, and birds that can swim in the water.
The most famous and dangerous things in Daze are nothing more than the toads that are as strong as a fierce bull in the swamp, the forest worms as thick as buckets, the burly and majestic giant crocodiles, the half-human and half-fish mermaids in the depths of the great lake, and the strange chapters with eight tentacles.
There are also huge one-horned rhinoceros, long-haired giant elephants with long tusks and long noses, and triangular dinosaurs with heavy armor, which use herbivores to deter carnivorous beasts, compared to cave bears, cave wolves and the like, which are insignificant.
Many species are in the jungle, unheard of and unseen novelties, and instead of fearing, the warriors have a kind of excitement to see these legendary monsters.
But this curiosity, when the team set up a tent by the lake one night to rest, and bumped into the shocking octopus feeding mammoth, they were no longer interested, and for a long time, they were frightened.
In the moonlit lake, tentacles the thickness of water tanks poked out of the lake, and the mountain-like giant elephants were entangled, and the huge giant elephants were like lambs to the slaughter, without any ability to struggle.
That kind of troll, even if it is just a fierce species, is enough to make the ability warrior frightened, the strength of human beings, under such a troll, is too weak and weak, everyone feels their own insignificance, and there is no contempt.
In addition to all kinds of fierce beasts, there are also dangerous alien plants, dense and tough aquatic plants, which can pull animals into lakes and drown, turning them into their own nourishment.
There is a giant pitcher plant, burying the plant in the ground, opening its mouth and waiting, as long as the prey is caught, it will close the cage tightly, secrete the strong acid of digestion, and in a few moments, the prey can be turned into pus and blood.
There is a cunning and terrible cannibal flower, camouflage himself into the bushes and grass, and when a prey approaches, he opens his bloody mouth and swallows the opponent whole, even the belt, meat, bones, and clothes have become nourishment.
There are also soldiers who accidentally fall into the grass cage, and other soldiers hurriedly come to the rescue, split the grass cage, and rescue the people; there are also people who are captured by the man-eating flower, and the soldiers next to them are quick and chop off the entire flower head, which is not dangerous.
There are many dangers in Daze, and there is also no lack of opportunities, the giant toad that is as strong as a big cow is a whole treasure, the toad crisp can detoxify and relieve pain, open the body and awaken the soul, and the toad oil can nourish the kidneys and nourish the essence, nourish the yin and moisten the lungs.
Giant crocodile leather can make high-quality leather boots, much stronger and more durable than birch bark, forest python skin can make war drums, the timbre is very loud, octopus and mermaid are also delicious, rhinoceros, giant elephants and dinosaurs, all have the potential for domestication.
There are also ramie for making twine, sweet and delicious water chestnuts, but the tribe has long been planted, and there are hybrid cloth fruits, taking into account the two is a strength, and there is no meaning to collect it again, digging it as a snack on the road.
Mu Wu also found the lotus, the lotus is a good thing, not only can be ornamental, but also can be used for medicinal purposes, the rhizome lotus root is both a fruit and a grain, the lotus root stewed pork ribs are infinitely delicious, and rainy days are a perfect match.
Soon after, the lotus flower was discovered, the lotus belongs to the lotus, but it is the alienation of the lotus, the two are very different, the lotus only the roots can be used in medicine, and the whole plant of the lotus can be used in medicine, which is more practical.
The hot lotus root stewed pork ribs, fragrant and hot, relieved the fatigue and pressure of the team, and the pace of progress also accelerated, and it didn't take long for the reeds to be found again, and the use of the reeds was undoubtedly greater.
It can be used as a raw material for papermaking, can be used to weave reed mats, used to make beds, build houses, can be used to make brooms, can also be used to make medicine, clear heat, generate Jin, remove annoyance, stop nausea, detoxify, and has a wide range of uses.
Reed leaves, reed flowers, reed stems, reed roots, asparagus, can be used as animal husbandry, feed value is higher, the tribe's livestock, presumably all like it, follow these war horses, just like the young stems and young leaves.
Lotus flowers and reeds are necessary to transplant tribes, but now is not the time to dig, Mu Wu wrote down the specific location, prepared to come back to collect, and continued to set off with the team to explore the rich Daze.
