Chapter 624: The Chariot That Can't Be Stopped
A stone carving.
A solemn stone carving, and the appearance of the stone carving is Zhou Sen. In fact, the carving skills of the savages need to be improved, and the stone carving does not look like Zhou Sen, but the clothes of the stone carving look like Zhou Sen.
Deity.
This is a god in the truest sense of the word!
Zhou Sen had seen countless gods, and he had also made a lot of gold gods for himself, so he naturally knew the general requirements of the gods. Usually, the deities made should give people a solemn feeling, preferably solemn and solemn, and people will feel reverence from the heart at a glance.
There are countless gods in the five star fields, and in addition to some very distinctive gods, basically, the production of some gods follows the above rules.
"What are you doing?" Zhou Sen asked the savage.
"Ah...... I...... I ......" The wild man who was concentrating on carving was awakened by Zhou Sen, and his shy face was speechless, but his eyes were full of awe when he looked around.
Zhou Sen didn't continue to ask, because he had already guessed the reason from the awe-inspiring gazes around him.
Deity.
That's right, this savage carved a deity carved for him.
Hope not true!
Hope not true!
Zhou Sen didn't speak, he sat silently in front of the raft and looked at the river for a while, and now, he could only pray that the behavior of this wild man was just an accidental personal act.
However, Zhou Sen's hopes were dashed as soon as he returned to the Xuanyuan tribe, because he saw a huge stone standing at the door of the building in the middle of the tribe, the stone was about two meters high, at least a few tons, this stone had been carved into Zhou Sen's appearance, although the carving technique was a bit miserable, but his dress and facial features were Zhou Sen's stone carvings at a glance, after all, the difference between modern people and savages was too great.
Underneath the stone carvings, some fresh wild fruits are enshrined.
Zhou Sen stood at the door and looked at his stone statue speechless for a long time.
The Awoken!
The identity he has given himself is obviously an awakened person, but now, he has become an out-and-out evangelist.
No wonder I received the power of pure faith during this time!
Zhou Sen was not happy, because his current identity is an awakened person, not an evangelist, which shows that his identity and behavior have deviated, resulting in a change in the results.
What causes it......
……
Woohoo!
Just when Zhou Sen was looking at his stone sculpture in a daze, suddenly, a group of wild men appeared in the dense forest in the distance, and the wild man led by it was Zhu Xiang.
Two days ago, that is, Zhou Sen went out to look for Zhu Xiang and went out with a group of wild people, because, after the Xuanyuan tribe made an appointment with another tribe before, many young people from the tribe had not returned to the tribe, which made Zhu Xiang very worried, so he led a group of wild people out to look for it.
This is a group of remnants of the defeated army.
Many of the wild men were scarred, even missing arms and legs. Obviously, the last time the fight was made, the Xuanyuan tribe returned with a feather.
Next, the tribe began to bandage and treat some of the wounded, and in the process, Zhou Sen learned that the reason why the Xuanyuan tribe failed miserably was that there was no tribal leader.
There are no more tribal leaders......
A wry smile appeared at the corner of Zhou Sen's mouth, if this was the reason, then he would be the culprit, because, if it wasn't for him chasing Zhu Xiang on a flying skateboard, Zhu Xiang would not have fled and lost contact with the army.
Zhou Sen decided to make up for the Xuanyuan tribe.
On the seventeenth day, Zhou Sen built a small blast furnace in the Xuanyuan tribe, which was a finished product after repeated calculations.
The construction of small blast furnaces is mainly based on "soil", which has the advantages that modern steel and iron factories do not have, such as: less investment, simple equipment, easy technology for the masses to grasp, short construction time, and so on.
Generally, the structure of the blast furnace is like a human body, which can be divided into several parts: 1 cylinder; 2. A boiled belly; 3 a waist; 4-furnace body; 5 - furnace throat.
In order to protect the bottom from the erosion and erosion of gas and slag, a layer of water is often retained in the lower part of the mouth, which is called the dead layer, and the general height is 300~400 mm. The furnace part has an iron outlet, a slag outlet and an air inlet. Therefore, to make this shape, it is necessary to create good conditions for the various smelting processes that take place in the furnace: the top-down decline of the charge, the bottom-up flow of gas, and a series of physical and chemical changes.
According to Zhou Sen's calculations, the annual output of this small blast furnace is 3,000 tons, of course, it is already remarkable to be able to reach 500 tons, after all, the supply of various auxiliary materials is a big problem......
……
Of course, it doesn't make much sense if it's just smelting raw iron, because the wildlings don't master the art of blacksmithing.
In order to allow the savages to jump from the Stone Age to the Iron Age in a short period of time, Zhou Sen gave the savages a plug-in, and he secretly used the techniques of a refiner to refine some primitive forging tools, that is, some blacksmiths.
With pig iron, with the blacksmith's trades, then it's easy to forge tools.
The wild people didn't know what Zhou Sen was going to do, but watching him toss some fresh things every day, everyone was interested, especially a group of children who were around Zhou Sen all day long.
Because the survival pressure of the savages is very great, some adult savages have to go out to hunt, so Zhou Sen can not use much labor, mainly some children.
The child is receptive.
Children are more capable of imitating.
When Zhou Sen started the furnace, he would let the children imitate a stove next to him, although it was unsatisfactory, but it was also eight or nine and ten.
On the eighteenth day, Zhou Sen smelted a large amount of pig iron, and then forged some simple weapons with a pig iron hammer - spears.
Of course, the spear forged by Zhou Sen's hammer needs to be mounted on a long wooden stick.
When Zhou Sen hammered out the spear, the entire Xuanyuan tribe went crazy, because, that day, a group of wild people went out hunting with spears, and immediately harvested a mountain of prey.
In the past, the weapons used by savages to capture prey were stone tools, and their lethality could not be compared with the penetration of metal, and it often took a long chase to hunt a beast, but now, the spear is equivalent to a dimensionality reduction blow for the beasts of this planet, and the sharp spear can easily kill the prey, which makes the savage greatly save time and the probability of success in hunting.
When the spear weapon came out, Zhou Sen was out of control, and what swords and vertical arrows came out one after another.
With the blessing of weapons, the Xuanyuan tribe has become extremely rich in just half a month, and any hunting team will have a huge harvest when they go out.
After having food, the wild people were freed from the heavy hunting, and they began to draw a large number of manpower to follow Zhou Sen to learn smelting and hammering.
With the addition of a large number of laborers, the production of iron tools has increased rapidly, and some functional iron tools are also being used on a large scale, among which the revolutionary saw blade and various iron nails have greatly increased the work efficiency of the wild people.
The saw blade allows the wildlings to cut wood efficiently.
Some iron nails allow the wildlings to establish defensive positions in a very short period of time, such as the "U" horse nails, which can strengthen the tribe's defenses.
Under the guidance of Zhou Sen, the thinking of the savages has also been greatly expanded, and one by one their brains have been opened, and all kinds of iron products have been invented......
……
On the thirty-fifth day, the wild people of the Xuanyuan tribe used iron tools for their daily necessities, such as iron pots, barrels, and some farming tools for digging the ground.
The savages who entered the Iron Age were directly brought into the farming civilization by Zhou Sen.
Because the problem of food was temporarily solved and a large amount of labor was idle, Zhou Sen asked the savages to expand their territory several times, especially in the surrounding plains, let them build water conservancy, and search for some fruit trees in the woods that could be planted on a large scale, especially some dried fruit plants that could be stored.
Captive livestock is the top priority, Zhou Sen told the wild people to meet the tame herbivores to bring back the domestication captive breeding, these more than 30 days, the wild people have captured more than a dozen wild boar cubs, I believe that it will not be long before the wild people will be able to get enough meat through captive livestock.
Captive domestication is not a difficult task for savages, after all, they can even domesticate beasts, but they have not thought about domesticating herbivores before.
In addition to cultivating land and captivity, Zhou Sen also taught the wild people some fishing techniques, such as fishing.
On the forty-third day, Zhou Sen, who had already planned the blueprint of the Xuanyuan tribe, began to do nothing, tempered a simple fishing hook by himself, and began to spend time fishing by the river.
Since there was no fishing line, Zhou Sen tied a thin and sturdy vine with a bamboo pole as a fishing line, and then dug up some insects and ants as bait.
Maybe it's because the ecology is too good.
Maybe it's because fish don't have any natural predators.
In short, the fish here are very easy to catch, and they almost bite the hook when they are thrown down, and they don't require any technical content at all.
In just over half an hour, Zhou Sen caught more than 30 catties of fish, causing a group of children to scream one after another. Now, Zhou Sen is the out-and-out child king of the Xuanyuan tribe, except when he sleeps, there are at least more than 20 children around him, and more than 300 at times, densely surrounding him.
After Zhou Sen's successful fishing, the children joined the fishing army, and soon, the fish were piled up into a small mountain, and the wild people in the tribe rushed to hear the news and let out earth-shattering cheers.
For the Xuanyuan tribe, the diversity of food can provide a more abundant guarantee for the tribe's food, the river is hundreds of kilometers long, connected to countless lakes, and there are countless fish in it, if this kind of fishing can get fish, then it also means that the Xuanyuan tribe will no longer have to worry about food in the future.
Now, the whole tribe is looking forward to the future.
At present, in just over 40 days, the tribe has not only solved the problem of food, but also planted a lot of fruit tree seedlings, and now it is able to fish again, so to speak, the tribe has reached unprecedented prosperity.
In the past, the Xuanyuan tribe has always been a small tribe, many times, the members of the tribe have to endure hunger, and during this time, the wild people can eat with their bellies open.
And in these more than 40 days, the population of the Xuanyuan tribe has surged, and it has reached 4,000 people.
The reason for the population surge of the Xuanyuan tribe is very simple, around the tribe, there are many small tribes, or some tribes with family units as a unit, many of these tribes are families from the Xuanyuan tribe or other tribes, and when the life of the Xuanyuan tribe is prosperous, they will come back one after another.
Of course, if it was before, it would be impossible for these people to return to the Xuanyuan tribe, but this was Zhou Sen's decision.
Zhou Sen and Zhu Xiang said that there are people who have the world, as long as they are willing to join the wild people of the Xuanyuan tribe, they will all be accepted......
……
Zhou Sen stared at the water, at this time, the feathered feathers of the birds were floating up and down the water, but he was imaginative, so anxious that the children around him did not dare to disturb.
Blue sky and white clouds.
There was a quiet and peaceful atmosphere in the air.
Everything, it's peaceful.
Zhou Sen knew that under this tranquility, there was a lot of murderous intent.
In the past forty days, the Xuanyuan tribe has undergone earth-shaking changes, and the ambitions of the Xuanyuan tribe have also grown like vines.
At present, the Xuanyuan tribe has reached seven smelting furnaces, three of which are functioning well, and the daily output of pig iron is measured in tons, and this pig iron is forged into a variety of weapons and tools.
The hammer forging technology of the Xuanyuan tribe is also growing rapidly, and they are actively seeking combustibles to replace wood, and the coal samples found by the savages outside have been sent to the tribe and are in the experimental stage, Zhou Sen believes that soon, the wood of the smelting furnace will be replaced by coal.
Because of the abundance of arrows, bows and arrows began to spread on a large scale, and because of the iron tools, the quality of bows and arrows has been greatly improved in a very short time, and at present, the range of bows and arrows has reached fifty meters, and it is believed that it will not be long before they can reach a distance of eighty or even a hundred meters.
After the Stone Age entered the Iron Age, the hunting efficiency of the wild people reached an unprecedented height, and this improvement allowed the wild people to obtain abundant food, but also caused subversive damage to the surrounding ecology.
If you go farther away, you will inevitably clash with other tribes.
With the blessing of weapons, the strength of the Xuanyuan tribe has also reached its peak, that is, in just a few tens of days, the Xuanyuan tribe has conquered more than a dozen tribes of all sizes around it......
……
In order to prevent the Xuanyuan tribe from destroying the biological chain, Zhou Sen thought of fishing, but he knew very well that the success of fishing would not stop the Xuanyuan tribe, because the Xuanyuan tribe had become a huge chariot in advance, and the lack of food would drive this chariot forward; The abundance of food will also propel this chariot forward.
Of course, Zhou Sen didn't want to stop it, this was what he wanted to see, but he didn't expect it to be so fast, when he smelted the raw iron, the development of the Xuanyuan tribe began to advance by leaps and bounds, changing every day.
Mountains of arrows.
Mountains of spears.
Mountains of scimitars.
Mountains of shields......
