Chapter 100: The Strange Things in the Human Temple
Xia Tuo used the perspective of his previous life to see how important a smooth trade route was to a country, such as the British Kingdom, which once relied on the Age of Discovery, how much it used to look at all directions.
Perhaps the civilization in the era of big technology in the previous life is different from the current wild land, but some of the truths are the same, the trapped side will inevitably become a turtle, and only by constantly contacting the outside world can we continue to make progress.
Compared to the natives of the wild land, he naturally had a unique vision, and he also understood how important the trade route was to the development of the tribe.
So this canal had to be dug through.
With this idea, Xia Tuo was out of control, and then he came to the second floor of the Inheritance Hall, where there was a sand table with a size of hundreds of square meters, with undulating mountains and rivers, countless rivers, and lakes everywhere, and the scene of the area around the Xia tribe was unobstructed.
To the southeast of the tribe, a large area of water is tinged with a clear blue, which is the Black Fang Waters, and the large and small rivers around the Black Fang Water Waters can be seen, including the bubbling river that flows through the tribe.
The tribe is only a few miles away from the river, and now they have dug an artificial canal, which only needs to be widened to connect the tribe to the waters of the Black Fang.
"Come on, Elder Deer can be in the tribe?"
Then, Xia Tuo shouted.
Lu has been busy monitoring the affairs of the mountains and forests these days, so he rarely stays in the tribe, so Xia Tuo doesn't know if he is in the tribe.
Fortunately, the deer was in the tribe, and soon the deer came to the second floor of the inheritance hall.
"Patriarch, you're looking for me. ”
"Come and see. Xia Tuo pointed to the sand table and said to the deer: "What is the danger of the distance from the tribe to the Black Tooth waters of the Flowing River?"
Lu looked in the direction Xia Tuo was pointing, thought for a moment and then said, "Patriarch, apart from some dire crocodile beasts and other fierce beasts in the water, there are no dangerous shoals and torrents in this water. ”
"I'm going to gather some of the clansmen and widen the man-made river dug in the tribe to connect the Gurgling River, and then to the waters of the Black Fang, beyond the mountain range, what do you think?"
Lu pondered for a moment, glanced at Xia Tuo, and said softly: "It won't be wrong to think about the patriarch, I believe in the patriarch." ”
Xia Tuo glanced at the deer and found that there was a kind of reverence in his eyes when he looked at him, and he was a little proud for a while.
"Let's go, you take me along the way to see the Flowing River. ”
"Yes. ”
The two of them drove a small flat boat in the tribe, and went along the artificial canal towards the outside of the tribe, and Xia Tuo stood on the bow of the boat.
It's really embarrassing to say, Xia Tuo is a little embarrassed to call the piece of wood under his feet a boat.
Naturally, there is no shortage of wood in the wild old forest, and the boat under his feet is to directly cut down a large tree of several people's hugs and thickness, and dig out a hole in the middle of the main trunk of the tree.
With his instructions, the bow of the boat was flattened, and if it was a shack, it would be a canopy boat.
Whoa!
After merging into the bubbling river along the artificial river, the water flow suddenly became turbulent, and the water surface became deeper, and some whirlpools could be seen on the water surface.
Crash!
A black fish with a mouth full of fangs was killed by Xia Tuo, which immediately caused the waves in the water to roll, and the dead black fish was directly divided and eaten by his companions.
The Ripping River flows into the waters of Heiya from west to east, so the speed of the two of them going down the river is very fast, and they can see the vast surface of the waters of Heiya in front of them in only half a day.
You must know that ordinary Broken Stone Realm warriors come to the Black Fang Water Area from the tribe, even if their feet are non-stop, it will take two days, and if they carry the goods, it will take even longer.
Golden waterways.
For a while, Xia Tuo thought of a word from his previous life.
It is imperative to open up waterways to connect with the outside world.
After the boat entered the waters of Black Fang, the mountains retreated behind him, and Xia Tuo took out a small mussel shell and put it on the bow of the boat.
Wow!
The mussel shell buzzed, and the water surface soon rippled, rippling in all directions, and the mussels in the distance emerged from under the water, but they did not come forward, and the mussel shell was the contact information of the mussel people to their friends, so the figures on the boat were their friends.
The deer propped up the boat, and they made their way south along the waters of the Black Fang.
Crash.
At this moment, the sound of water on the surface of the water sounded, and a small clam man jumped into the boat at once, and the clam shell opened, revealing a small crystal head, blinking at Xia Tuo.
Soon there were a lot of little mussels on the small boat of friendship, one by one lazily spreading out the mussel shells, basking in the sun, and they were not afraid of Xia Tuo.
For this, Xia Tuo didn't care and smiled.
When they came to the southern part of the Black Fang Water and the wasteland, it was getting dark, and the two of them rested for the night, and the next day they entered the wasteland along a large river that was a hundred feet wide.
After entering the wasteland, Xia Tuo began to write and draw, noting down the direction of the water flow, the giant waterfall, and the turning of the river he saw, and it was already five days after returning to the tribe.
......
"Hong, you lead the people to widen the Xia River. ”
The artificial river that communicates the river is called the Xia River in the tribe, of course, this is not Xia Tuo's idea, but the tribesmen shouted so.
The Xia River is enough to divert water, but it is a bit narrow and shallow for boating, so it must be expanded, and even the inner lake of the clan must be deepened.
"I see. ”
After instructing Hong, Xia Tuo sat on the stone chair and fell into contemplation again, for the tribe, the artificial river is easy to dig, but the boat is difficult to build, this is not for him to dig a few canoes, if so, why do you need to widen the river, it is enough for now.
In the seemingly calm river, there is a hidden crisis, the boat can only move forward in the river, can only deliver food to the beasts in the water, encounter rapids, whirlpools, the boat directly burps, and the people on the boat can't break free at all.
So if you want to build a fleet, you have to have ships.
It's not a matter of chopping a few pieces of wood in a bundle.
He knew that the only one who had a big ship was the Rain Tribe, relying on the Tu Ze Great Lake, and the big ship of the Rain Seeking Tribe crossed the giant lake and crossed the north and south, each time it could carry tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of goods, and the resources brought back by a barter were beyond imagination.
For this, Xia Tuo said that he also wanted to do so.
If you don't have a boat, you will find a way to build it, you won't be able to learn it, and if you don't let it learn, you will steal it, there will always be a way.
......
In the evening, Li hurried back from outside the mountain.
"Patriarch, something strange has happened. ”
Li has been arranged by Xia Tuo to go to the human hall to see the group of dolls these days, and rarely comes back to the tribe, after all, all the elders in the clan now understand that the human hall is the place where the blood of the tribe is fed, which is very important.
Hearing this, Xia Tuo couldn't help but look stunned.
"Patriarch, two dolls suddenly wandered at night, saying that they heard something calling to them from outside the valley. ”
What the!
I'm going, did I come to the ghost world?
Hearing this, Xia Tuo was stunned, strange things happen every year, especially this year.
"Let's go and see. ”
Now, in Xia Tuo's eyes, the human temple can be regarded as a tribe of the tribe, a place for the fresh blood of the clan, and there can be no problems.
"When is the matter. ”
On the way, Xia Tuo couldn't help asking.
"For three days, I led people to guard outside the valley, and followed the two little ones all the way into the depths of the barren forest, and I didn't notice anything unusual. ”
Xia Tuo's expression was a little ugly, and he vaguely guessed what was causing trouble.
In the valley at the beginning of the tribe, after several years of development, it has long changed its appearance, and the stone caves have been dug out on the rock wall, with a total of three layers up and down, the lower stone cave is used to rest, and the upper stone cave is used to practice and teach the method of quenching the body.
Xia Tuo entered the valley and saw that there were about three hundred figures in the valley boxing, and the undulating shouts were a little immature, but he sounded very useful.
In the deepest cave in the valley, two teenage little ones stood in front of him.
"Come, sit down. ”
Xia Tuo sat on the ground and signaled that the two little guys didn't need to be nervous.
Seeing Xia Tuo like this, the expressions of the two teenagers eased a little.
"How old is it, what is its name. ”
"My name is Makino, fifteen years old, and I've been in the valley for four years. ”
"My name is Fishbone, Sixteen, and I've been here for five years. ”
Makino is a little fat, but the fishbones are very worthy of his name, tall and thin.
"How's your cultivation going?"
"Eight hundred and ninety. ”
"Nine hundred and ten. ”
Hearing this, Xia Tuo didn't expect that the talents of these two little guys were not bad, and they would use the ordinary pure-blood foundation building method to temper themselves to such an extent.
Li looked at Xia Tuo and continued: "The two of them are rare talented people in the valley, and it won't take a year or two to almost be promoted to totem warriors." ”
Xia Tuo nodded, and his eyes looked at the two little guys again.
"You two stay next to me in the cave tonight. ”
The trembling bodies of the two little guys nodded, shrinking their little bodies in the cave, Xia Tuo didn't say anything, his eyes were slightly closed, waiting for the night to fall.
......
As night fell, the valley gradually fell silent, the jade rabbit climbed to the top of the sky, the phantom of a laurel tree crossed the night sky, and a low beast roar was heard in the distance of the mountains.
Hong led his soldiers to patrol the valley and beyond, the torches shining brightly, shining on the horns.
Woo~~~
In the cave, the fish bones and Makino who were shrunk back suddenly shuddered, and the fish bones shouted violently.
"It's coming, it's coming. ”
At the same time, the demon order in Xia Tuo's hand exuded a touch of warmth.
He watched as the two little ones' eyes changed from panic to fog, and then he walked out of the cave, down the steps into the valley and ran outside.
The soldiers who had been ordered in advance did not move one by one, and let the two little ones go out of the valley.
Xia Tuo jumped down from the cave, followed the two little ones unhurriedly, and entered the barren forest.
Under the thick foliage piled up on the ground, there was a rustling sound, and rats and ants crawled, adding a bit of horror.
After crossing the two mountains, Fishbone and Makino came to a large withered tree with the thickness of their hugs, and the pupils of their eyes glowed with a faint red light, and knelt down towards the big tree.
