The dilapidated huts were scattered and scattered, and under the eaves wall of a house, he saw a machete, Lin Yan asked for the owner's consent, picked it up curiously, looked at it, and handed it to Shi Zhi and a few of them.

Several people glanced at each other, and they were sure that it was made of iron, and it was obvious that the people of the Wild Tribe were already able to make iron tools.

Not long after walking, in front of a house, he saw a woman squatting in front of a wooden basin, Lin Yan stopped to take a closer look.

In front of the woman was a large basin with a fat grass carp with its tail still exposed, and in a clay bowl beside her was some yellowed white mixed with impurities.

The woman reached out and picked up a little white from the bowl and rubbed it on the fish, and after a while the fish turned over and continued to apply.

Huang Ying asked, "What is she doing, what is in that bowl?" ”

Shui Sheng also saw this scene, especially when he noticed that Lin Yan's eyes were shining, he stumbled and asked Yuan Qing, what was the woman doing.

Lin Yan patted the woman, pointed to the bowl, and then pointed to his mouth, asking if he could taste it.

The woman hesitated for a moment before nodding, picked up the bowl, and let Lin Yan take it herself.

Lin Yan couldn't wait to pinch a little white particle and stuff it into her mouth, filling her taste buds with bitter saltiness, and her body trembled slightly with excitement.

It's this taste, I've been thinking about it for seven years, and I've finally tasted it again.

Lan Yue walked to Lin Yan's side, learned Lin Yan's movements, quickly reached into the bowl, and licked her fingers with her tongue.

The first time he tried the strange taste, Lan Yue's brows furrowed, and she was very puzzled, what was Lin Yan excited about.

Huang Ying also came over, and just as she was about to stretch out her hand, the bowl was taken away by the woman, looking at them vigilantly.

Salt is a very important condiment, and the wilderness tribes also paid a lot of money to get it. In order to preserve the meat longer, it is salted.

Shui Sheng asked Yuan Qing what it was and how it came about.

It took a lot of effort to figure out that it was the most cherished thing of the Wilderness Tribe, which they exchanged for cotton cloth from the Qingyan Tribe.

The Qingyan tribe is on the east side of the wilderness tribe, and it takes five days to reach it along the Yang River.

Salt is the main product of the Qingyan tribe, and mineral salt is everywhere. Just like the cotton of the wilderness tribe, it is very distinctive.

Seeing that Lin Yan was back to normal, Lan Yue asked, "What is this, it tastes weird." ”

The light in Lin Yan's eyes could no longer be hidden, she grabbed Lan Yue's hand and said excitedly: "It's table salt, we finally found it." The biggest takeaway from this trip is this. ”

"It doesn't taste good." After Blue Moon tasted it herself, she questioned the salt. She had heard Lin Yan mention table salt before, but after tasting it herself, she couldn't imagine how to eat this thing.

"Don't underestimate table salt, it is a substance necessary for our human body, it was just a matter if we didn't have it before, but now that we have found it, we must bring some back."

Lin Yan looked at Shui Sheng, "You ask them where the salt comes from." ”

Shui Sheng smiled, "I've already asked." Continuing east along the Yang River, you can walk for five days to the Qingyan tribe, where salt is produced. The salt of the wilderness tribe was exchanged for cotton cloth for the Qingyan tribe. ”

Lin Yan's eyes rolled, "You ask Yuan Qing to take us to see cotton, it is the raw material for making cotton cloth, it is very important, it would be great if we could bring some cotton seeds back to plant." ”

Shui Sheng immediately understood what Lin Yan meant, and communicated with Yuan Qing.

Next, they walked for more than an hour, walked out of the settlement of the wild tribes, and came to a wilderness plain, where cotton was all over the place at a glance, and it was the time of flowering, a large field of white flowers, which was very spectacular.

Huang Ying exclaimed: "This is cotton, such a big flower, it looks so beautiful." ”

The cotton plant in front of you, the shortest of which is also two meters tall, is full of flower buds, and the top bud is fully blooming, a milky white.

Lin Yan was also shocked and speechless, he didn't expect that the wilderness tribe was actually a big cotton planter, no wonder they were all wrapped in cotton cloth.

When they saw Yuan Yu just now, they were very curious about the style of their own clothes and looked at it for a long time.

On the way here, Lin Yan also saw the process of the people of the wilderness tribe weaving cloth with cotton, which was very simple and inefficient. If you can bring the cotton back, with Sun City's current technology, you will soon be able to make cotton cloth.

"Not only is it beautiful, but after the cotton grows into a cotton boll, the fibers inside are the raw materials for making cotton cloth. Clothes made of cotton are comfortable and soft, much better than linen. ”

Lin Yan looked at Shui Sheng and was about to say something, when suddenly more than a dozen gray wild dogs rushed out of the dense forest next to the cotton field.

It turned out that they had long been the prey of wild dogs, and seeing them standing still, the wild dogs finally moved.

The accident came suddenly, the wild dog was extremely fast, Yuan Qing and the others' faces changed greatly, and they turned their heads and were about to run.

Yun Qing immediately ordered: "Line up, draw bows and shoot arrows." ”

The people who came with him quickly stepped forward and blocked Lin Yan and the others behind him, some pulled out the bow and arrow behind their back, someone raised their arm, pulled out the crossbow arrow, and the arrow flew towards the wild dog group.

The well-trained man, with no missing arrow, shot the wild dog, and the pain caused the wild dog to let out a wild roar.

Yuan Qing and the others had already run some distance, heard the barking of the dog, and looked back as they ran.

This sight was immediately shocking, and none of those people ran away, but they all stayed where they were, and most of the wild dogs that made them like great enemies had already fallen.

Yuan Qing stopped, and he saw the wild dogs fall one by one, slowly moving away. He shouted to the people who had run away, "Stop, don't run, the wild dog is dead." ”

At this moment, Yuan Qing looked at Yun Qing and the others with shocked and frightened eyes, the things in their hands were too powerful.

It is so sharp to kill a wild dog with one blow, and Yuan Qing longs for such a sharp weapon.

He stared at the bow behind Yun Qing, his eyes were hot, if he hadn't just seen the process of Yun Qing pulling the bow and shooting arrows, he would have rushed up and grabbed it.

The accident quickly subsided, and Lin Yan looked at Yuan Qing's undisguised eyes, understanding the shock that the scene just brought to them.

This wild dog came at the right time, and just when he couldn't find a chance to show it, the wild dog happened to come up.

After seeing the cotton, the group said goodbye to Yuan Qing and the others and returned to the boat, and the day was already evening.

They also promised Yuan Qing that they would not leave tomorrow.

I didn't get the cotton, and I needed Yuan Qing's introduction to the Qingyan tribe, but the purpose was not achieved, and they couldn't go.

The Wilderness tribe was very interested in Lin Yan's boat and bow and arrow, and they couldn't let them go.

Both sides have their own needs, and they are still waiting for detailed discussions tomorrow.

At night, more than 20 people gathered in the house of the leader of the wilderness tribe, all of whom were authoritative figures of the wilderness tribe.

Today, he and Yuan Qing accompanied Lin Yan and their people were all there, discussing together how to treat the visitors from Sun City.
