Chapter 52: The Stone Pier Turtle

Back to the tribe, everyone began to eat, of course, the diet of the road repair team will definitely be the best, because this time they are angry for everyone, so that those Luoshui League and other alliances whose eyes are higher than their heads can see what a village-level tribal alliance can be proud of:

It's manpower, it's talent, and it's also the talent after the optimized combination.

After the meal, the sacrifices of the Qinghe Alliance contacted their respective tribes, and Xiao Hu slowly walked out of Qinglin City with dozens of white worm clans and a mountaintop cave man, and from here, a smooth road surface had been formed.

"You guys, pour this ash into a straight line, that's not right, look at me!" said him, and in the middle of the road, Hu Menglin began to draw a wide white line, and then asked the caveman at the top of the mountain to crystallize.

From a distance, it seems as if a glowing white dragon has appeared on this dark stone road.

"Dear Hu Sacrifice, I want to ask, what is this for?" The leading white worm clan has normal eyesight, which is very rare in the white worm clan.

"Distinguish the direction in which vehicles are passing from here. For example, those who lead to Yingtan City walk on the right hand, while those who come to our Qinglin from Yingtan City walk on that side. "Nonsense.

The white worm man jumped to the other side, and wonderfully found that he was still on the right side! The white worm man jumped left and right, and had a lot of fun!

For their simple mind, Xiao Hu was speechless.

After all, the work of drawing lines is still simple, and before dark, the group caught up with the tens of thousands of people who were building the road in front. Take a look at the Warm Bay League ahead. Xiao Hu decided to repair it here today, and transfer some people tomorrow, and make sure to repair the road leading from Wenshui Bay to Yingtan City before sunset tomorrow.

Taking advantage of the rest, Xiao Hu quickly rushed to the warm water bay in front of him, and he had to communicate with the tribe's sacrifices first to determine the best route.

The person who received Xiaohu was actually the fox priest he saw when he repelled the beast tide last time, and he was still talking like a magic stick.

However, I heard that it was to vent the evil qi, so I suddenly came to the spiritual head, and immediately took more than a dozen people from the Qinglin tribe to the direction of Yingtan City and began to determine the route.

Xiao Hu really didn't expect that this family was not exactly a sacrifice, but more importantly, he was actually a surveyor. How high the mountain, how deep the water, and how long the trees are, you can tell at a glance, and there will be no difference of one meter between the top and bottom.

"Are you a talent or a later learner?" Xiao Hu is very concerned about this issue, and today it is easy to find a talent who is willing to speak and has professional skills!

"There are some elements of talent, but there is still a inheritance, without inheritance, how can you learn it, just like a sacrifice! No matter how much you have spiritual power and vitality, it is difficult to become a sacrifice if you are not taught!"

This fox sacrifice is called Hu Lulu, a very feminine name, and his mapping comes from the inheritance of his mother, a mountain chicken people.

"If I invite you to our tribe and teach you what you know about surveying and mapping to the children or young people you think are eligible, do you agree?"

"It's not impossible, but my mother said that if you want to exchange, if you have any knowledge about surveying and mapping, I will agree to pass it on!"

"Do you know mathematics, that is, to use numbers to show how tall the mountains are, how many trees there are, and use numbers to calculate?" Xiao Hu really didn't understand whether and how these surveyors calculated it.

"What you said seems to make sense, in this way, where will I go to you in the future, you tell me, I will teach those children, in fact, most children are willing to endure hardships and can learn!"

As they spoke, the two of them had already walked to the Wenshui River Bay that was bound to pass by. Once here, Xiao Hu and Xiao Dick killed several serpentine monsters.

This is already the first big water bay downstream of Yingtan City, and it is the closest road to Yingtan City, and it will be far if you detour.

This inlet is not very wide, but it is very deep, and if you want to build a pontoon bridge, it will be very difficult for vehicles to come and go in the future.

Seeing Hu Menglin frowning, the fox clan priest spoke: "Do you think it's not easy to build a bridge here?"

Hu Menglin nodded and looked at him.

"Actually, there are mountains of wood, I think the most important and difficult thing is the bridge pier, I have a way to do this!"

It turns out that in the lower reaches of the Wenshui River, not too far from here, there lives a group of turtles called stone pier turtles.

These creatures have few natural predators, because they stay in the water all day, never go ashore, and are covered with tortoiseshells like stones, even on their heads, and only open their mouths when eating.

They float motionless in the water all day long, and some even live in only one place for the rest of their lives.

When the local orcs discovered this feature, they often caught them and used them as bridge piers in the depths of the water, stepping on their backs to cross the river. These creatures are like floating stones, staying there for years, faithfully guarding, motionless.

"Generally speaking, a pier turtle can carry the weight of an orc, so if there are a hundred of them lined up here, and they are regularly thrown in some fish or something to feed, it is probably no problem. The fox people's words made Hu Menglin's eyes light up.

In this way, the weight of a hundred orcs plus the weight of the wood on the bridge deck can effectively solve the traffic jam that may be caused.

Here, the Warm Water Bay Alliance can build a toll booth or something to raise these stone turtles, and regularly replace some of the dead or mating ones.

With this in mind, the two of them quickly ran downstream, and in a moment they brought back more than four hundred heads with ropes with a dozen orcs, and these huge rock-like creatures did not know anything about movement, but shrunk their heads and slept in their shells. It's really a biological species that doesn't hear anything from the world.

Calculating the distance, the two of them quickly set up the four hundred pier turtles, and these guys really let the wind and water blow and did not move.

The fox priest found a few hundred people from nearby villages and began to cut down wood and build bridges in the mountains. Regarding the issue of binding the wooden bridge, Hu Menglin simply directly let the dung of the Golden Worm Clan be quickly processed into wire by the Xiariba people, and let the cave people on the top of the mountain crystallize a layer on it, and then quickly send it.

After tossing and turning all night without sleeping, Hu Menglin and his wife finally built a wooden bridge that looked unusually sturdy before dawn.

This speed stunned the orcs who were watching the excitement nearby. Everyone cheered, in the past, when crossing the river, they always had to wade through the water, or go downstream to step on the bridge pier turtle, but now they can finally go to the opposite side to work and visit relatives.

Before the road was repaired here, Hu Menglin and the others had already crossed the river to continue planning the route, and the dozen or so villagers who followed behind did not need Hu Menglin's request, so they took the initiative to follow, they understood that if their village wanted to find a way out, this Hu sacrifice, who was said to be very capable, was the best candidate.

The words that Hu Menglin mentioned just now to charge some fees for passing vehicles and pedestrians have already surprised several orcs, after all, this river still has to pay money, which is unimaginable. When Hu Menglin gave them an account, the orcs were convinced:

If a merchant's cart transporting animal meat passes through Hanoi, it needs to be unloaded, and the cart and meat must be transported separately, and when it reaches the other bank, it must be loaded. If it is transported by boat, the first thing to do is to find the boat, and two people need to row, if you are not careful, if it overturns, the cost will be large.

Of course, for ordinary orcs, especially those who often travel between the two sides of the strait, they can be collected once a year. The price must be low, and the purpose is only to maintain the bridge, not to build it for money.

Seeing that the road ahead from Yingtan City was already flat, Hu Menglin stopped and said to a few orcs:

"After a busy day, I will give you an idea to pay for the day's labor! Here, a hundred miles from the city, there are often some orcs who go out of the city to play, and passers-by from any direction need to eat, and if a small house is built here, and some animal meat and wine are sold, it is estimated that it will be good. ”

When these orcs heard this, they were still stunned, they couldn't understand, if someone passed by and ate a piece of meat and had to exchange it, how could the orcs be like this?
