Chapter 694: Let's Draw a Picture

Shao Xuan knew that the black shield they used was something similar to rubber, but it was different from rubber. Rubber is actually no stranger to the Yanjiao people, living in the mountains and forests for so many years, the exploration of plants let them know that the thick liquid of some trees can be waterproof by applying it to clothes, and they can also make some waterproof shoes, and they will not get their feet wet on rainy days, but the Yanjiao people feel that those are too troublesome, uncomfortable to wear, and too affect their actions, so they use less, after all, there was a lack of technology and limited materials at that time.

Shao Xuan also wanted to try more in the past, but later found that the Yanjiao people were really not interested in those, and they did use less when hunting, so they would put those down, but when they were harvesting crops a while ago, the black shield used by the Changle people who ran thousands of grains of gold to snatch the grain made Shao Xuan very interested.

It was not ordinary rubber, and Shao Xuan had no way of knowing how it was made. The rubber was lighter than the ones Shao Xuan used in the past, and it could block most of the arrows, even the spear he threw didn't completely pass through the big black shield, and there was still a section of the spear handle stuck on it.

As for Shao Xuan's question, Wuhe and the five showed an unusually resolute attitude, although their eyes seemed to be glued to the bowl of meat, they didn't miss a word.

In order to block the temptation, some people held their breath so much that their faces turned red.

Shao Xuan looked at the five people seriously and said, "It's okay not to say it, let's change the conditions." ”

“...... You say!" Wuhe glared at Shao Xuan angrily, how could they answer such a difficult condition? Changing the condition may also be the kind of thing that made it difficult for them to speak! Even so, he still held on to hope, as long as it did not involve Changle's secrets, he could say it, including some privacy of those slave owners.

"There should be a lot of places for you Changle people to go. Shao Xuan said as he observed the five people in the cage.

Mention the places you've been. This is what the Changle people are proud of, even if it is the slave owners, they may not have as many places as their Changle people. Wuhe and the five couldn't help but show a look on their faces.

"Let's draw a picture. Shao Xuan said.

"Huh?"

"What do you mean?"

"Are you going to let us draw the place we know?" Wuhe stretched out his finger and plucked his ear, emphasizing a few words. Make sure you heard it right, "We've been to so many places, how can we draw them all?!"

"You can't even draw a map? Shao Xuan took the bowl of meat and turned around and prepared to leave.

"Wait!" Wuhe stretched out a hand from between the stone pillars, "What are you anxious about, I didn't say you couldn't draw!

Shao Xuan stood there and didn't move, "Can you draw?"

"Nonsense, of course you can!" Come back, that ......" Wuhe pointed to the bowl in Shao Xuan's hand, "Put it down." We've got something to say. ”

The manufacture of the black shield, they would not say anything about starvation, but if they only wanted a map, they could still draw it, except for those dens that Changle did not want to be known, other places, especially the cities of slave owners, they were very willing to draw them.

"After we draw it. Can you make us eat meat every day? Don't take anything like burnt wood. Well, the millet should also be used well, just the ones you have newly harvested, the golden ones...... Hey, don't go, wait! Stop!

Seeing Shao Xuan going out again, Wuhe was also anxious. The four people behind him were eager to beat Wuhe. They were in a hurry! Finally, they had a chance to improve their lives, but they were almost pushed away by Wuhe.

Prisoners, their demands are not as high as Wuhe said, as long as they improve it "slightly", at least put some soft hay on the ground? The broken bone that had just healed, lay on the ground and almost broke it again.

"Okay, you say, where to draw, draw and get some food when you're done, I'm starving. Wuhe sat on the ground and urged.

As soon as Wuhe finished speaking, he was kicked to the side, and the tall man who looked skinny looked at Shao Xuan with a smile, with a flattering face, as if the sharp posture when he grabbed the grain was not him.

"He's been hungry lately, Elder, don't pay attention to it, come, let's go on, what do you want to draw, where do you want to draw, how much detail do you want to draw?" the tall and thin man's mouth purred like a series of questions.

"Let's draw a simple map of the continent over there. Shao Xuan said.

Wuhe and the five secretly scolded in their hearts: It's still simple?!

Wuhe was about to say something, but he was dragged to the farthest corner from the prison door with his mouth covered, leaving only the tall and thin man there to talk to Shao Xuan, "We...... Do your best!"

"Alright, I'll have the sketchpad brought over later, and the brushes ready for you. As for the treatment you are talking about, it depends on your performance. ”

Shao Xuan's latter sentence is also a warning to them: Don't let me find out about cheating, otherwise you will be ready to be abused!

"Okay, okay, don't worry!" the tall and thin man rubbed his hands together and glanced at the bowl of meat.

Shao Xuan handed the bowl in, and the thin and tall man hugged the bowl gratefully, for fear that Shao Xuan would regret it again, and even Wuhe, who was still full of resentment before, didn't speak, and went over there to snatch it.

They Changle people like to enjoy, never treat themselves badly, even if they come to this strange continent, they have always been in the mentality of playing, what to eat, where to have fun, when they are bored, they find some excitement, as for the rest, they don't value it. To put it bluntly, their psychology is: as long as you let me eat, drink and have fun, what you want, as long as I can give it, I will never refuse.

In the eyes of the other Changle people, the Wuhe five who stayed in Yanjiao would live a miserable life as captives, and since Yanjiao promised not to kill them, they would definitely be guaranteed to live, after all, the transaction between the two sides was still ongoing. But that's all, the dirty dwelling, the rough rotten grain, being locked up in a palm-sized place every day, and so on are the norm, maybe others don't care, but it's torture for Changle people. Life is to enjoy, not to suffer, so that they cannot enjoy and are not free, they are simply crazy.

Therefore, those Changle people who left from Yanhe Fort felt that it was the best punishment for the five of them to continue to stay in Yanjiao without interceding. It's just that those people don't know that the five people who should have been more miserable are drawing pictures for better treatment.

Not long after Shao Xuan left the cave, someone carried a stone slab nearly one person high into it.

Wuhe Wuren looked at the polished slate in front of him, and the flesh on his face trembled twice, "This drawing board is too big!"

The people of Changle will not tell the secret of the black shield, which Shao Xuan has been prepared for, so his main purpose is not the secret of the black shield, but the map of the continent across the sea, even if it is not perfect, at least he can know a rough idea from the people of Changle, so that he can act in the future.

The other side of the sea is not like this side, there are so many people running around, caravans, adventurers, tribes that move from time to time, etc., all of which will shrink the unknown part of the continent. On this side of the continent, because of the primordial fire, the tribesmen rarely migrate, never too scattered, even if they are long-distance teams, they are all walking back and forth in a fixed few places all year round, rather than exploring the unknown area.

Now that the tribes in the central part have begun to move one after another, maybe in the future, this side will also develop into the same state as the sea side, but that is not something that can be waited for in a year or two, and the Changle people can provide a shortcut, so that they can know more about the continent over there.

Shao Xuan would pay attention to the progress of Wuhe's drawing every day, and if he was satisfied, he would ask people to change some hay mats for them, and the food had improved a little, but it was still far from the requirements of the Changle people. So, they painted harder, believing that if they continued, the hay in the cave would be replaced with animal skins, the food would be delicious, and life would be good, and they would be able to enjoy being captives in their cells.

In addition to paying attention to Wu and their progress, Shao Xuan spent the rest of his time in the underground secret room of Yanhe Castle, continuing to study the mummy-like stranger.

On the other side of the sea, in the dense mountain forest, it is the harvest season of the year.

The people of the Taihe tribe picked all the herbs that needed to be harvested, and the ones that should be dried took advantage of the good weather to dry, and after all the follow-up treatments, the expedition team also set off again.

Every time the expedition departed, they were still accustomed to rest at a fork in the road, and although they knew that there would not be another team carrying a large bag of animal skins, they would still look over there, which was not requested by the leader of the group, but something that everyone in the team would do.

The two teams, decades of tacit understanding, can't be changed so easily if they want to.

After Yanjiao left, they took over the land of Yanjiao, but no one went to live there, one is that the population of the Taihe tribe is not large, and it is okay to guard their own territory, but it is unreliable to divide it into two batches, besides, the land on the other side of Yanjiao is not good, and it is okay to grow ordinary grains, but planting medicinal herbs is far from meeting the requirements, even if it can be planted, the quality of the herbs that grow is not good. After all, the land of the Tay River has been improved by them for generations.

After Yanjiao left, the ducks also left, and the situation in this area of the mountains and forests changed again, some tribes left, some tribes came in, large and small battles have been carried out dozens of times, relatively safe and habitable, and not too far from the city, it is really limited. In the past, when Yanjiao was here, the alliance between Yanjiao and Taihe River, few people dared to offend them openly, but as soon as Yanjiao left, the other tribes in the mountains and forests had different attitudes towards Taihe.

The Taihe tribe wants to find another tribe to cooperate with, but they have not been able to find one who can be trusted as Yanjiao, even if it is the mountain wind tribe that has cooperated with them, not long ago, the two tribes had a conflict, and finally broke up unhappily.

Usually no one quarrels, and the leader of the hunting team of the Tai tribe is very short-tempered. Aside from the necessary travel trades, they hardly communicated with other tribes anymore. Wu said that this is probably loneliness. (To be continued.) )
