Beasts Are Boundless

After half a month...

Ye Qiong tribe, on the south side of the stone city wall, a young warrior is looking ahead, standing straight in the tower above the city wall.

Suddenly, on the horizon in the distance, some black figures appeared, too far away to see what they were.

The young soldier immediately blew a warning whistle, the lowest level, and the sound was very low. The purpose was to remind the soldiers stationed on the southern city wall that there was a situation!

The soldiers looked towards the end of the south in unison. Every time the soldiers from the timber base in the south or Ye Qiong came back, this whistle would sound. Although it seemed redundant, it was also an essential part of city defense. .

The soldier who blew the police whistle first, saw the huge figure in front of the black shadow, and immediately blew the whistle to relieve the danger.

Several soldiers responsible for opening the city gate immediately ran down excitedly.

In the distance, at the front of the team, is Dian Dian and Ye Qiong riding Dian Dian's back.

The entire team consisted of twenty people, five carriages, and the contents inside were all black sand. The wheels of the carriage pressed a deep ravine under the ground, enough to see that after the black sand piled up, it was astonishing. the weight of.

For a while, the weather around Ye Qiong tribe was pretty good. It was just a little snow a few days ago, and it was sunny all the time.

At the waterfall base, the current progress is quite good. With the efforts of Ye Qiong and the soldiers, it has now reached the bottom of the left channel.

And the amount of black sand stored in that space is staggeringly huge. The soldiers can't step on it. Once they get stuck, it will be very troublesome to get out. Peripheral exploration, the speed is not very fast.

For the tribe, there is no need to rush to know.

Therefore, under the command of Ye Qiong, five trucks of black sand were mined, which was not fast in terms of efficiency.

But there is no way. After all, not only must the black sand be brought up from a depth of more than 300 meters on the left side, but also the black sand that has been brought up must be brought down from the waterfall.

And there is a more troublesome thing, that is, it is difficult to get the black sand to the timber base in the south!

A handful of black sand is actually not heavy, but a sack of black sand is different, and the forest ancient ape is quite difficult to carry.

A sack with a diameter of about forty centimeters and a height of one meter, if it was filled with black sand, it would weigh hundreds of kilograms. Although a forest ancient ape could carry it, it would have to grow long from the dense forest. It is not easy to carry back dozens of kilometers of trails.

It's just a bag...

The warriors in the tribe can't carry the weight at all.

Therefore, every time the black sand is transported to the southern timber base, it is basically a matter of the forest ancient ape, and the soldiers can only follow behind with a small bag each time.

After about a week of accumulation, it was finally the black sand with five carriages.

The path in the jungle is now very tight.

This time, Ye Qiong personally led the team from the southern timber base and escorted five carts of black sand back to the tribe.

For the current tribe, the role of these black sands is very large.

Originally, when Ye Qiong tribe was in summer, Ye Qiong's task for Yang Jianxin and Tang Li was to exchange as many iron items as possible with other tribes. Yes, they can be exchanged for hides. Now it seems that the task of the caravan next year will be much easier.

In terms of the current overall technology level on Xue Xing, these black sands can completely play the role of currency.

Before reaching the south gate, the gate slowly opened, and a team of supporters came out.

Compared with clay and coal, the collection and transportation of black sand are much more difficult.

After entering the tribe from the south gate, Ye Qiong brought the team to the blacksmith shop as soon as possible.

The five carriages parked directly in the open space on the side of the blacksmith shop. After a while, Kuang Baichi walked out with a few apprentices, and Ye Qiong also jumped off Dian Dian's back.

"Aba...Aba..."

Looking at the five carriages parked on the open space, Kuang Baichi was a little surprised and puzzled, and he also had some expectations in his heart. In his memory, Ye Qiong often returned from outside the tribe with some strange things.

At the beginning, Kuang Baichi would be somewhat puzzled about the things Ye Qiong brought back.

But after a long time, when he figured it out by himself, it was a very fulfilling feeling of breakthrough. It was a bit like doing a math problem. After a series of processes, he finally got the correct answer.

Ye Qiong looked at Kuang Baichi and the apprentices behind him, and was not in a hurry to explain, but brought Kuang Baichi to the back of the carriage.

After grabbing a handful of the black sand in the car, Ye Qiong looked at Kuang Baichi and said, "In the future... our tribe should not be short of iron."

Kuang Baichi stretched out his hands and took the black sand poured out from Ye Qiong's hands.

After listening to Ye Qiong's words, Kuang Baichi had no expression and seemed to be thinking about something.

"Aba..."

Putting the black sand in his hand in front of his eyes, Kuang Baichi began to observe and study, and gradually, his eyes began to light up.

After a while, Ye Qiong ignored Ye Qiong and directly held the black sand in his hand, took small steps, and trotted back to the shop.

Ye Qiong waved at the soldiers behind him, indicating that they can unload the black sand. Now the only place where the black sand can be used in the tribe is the blacksmith shop.

As for what to use these black sand to build first, Ye Qiong and Ye Tianlong and the elders in the tribe need to discuss it before making a decision.

With the strategic supplies on the right side of the waterfall cave, the Ye Qiong tribe now lacks cold weapons.

At present, what the tribe can produce and is relatively scarce is the giant crossbow.

So Ye Qiong's current plan is to build more giant crossbows out, first to ensure the absolute safety of the cave.

As for the rails and trains, they can also enter the planning now, after all, Ye Qiong has already made the steam engine out.

So theoretically, as long as the tribe has enough iron, the train plan can start this winter.

If the railway tracks and trains can be put into operation in the spring of next year, then there will be no problem with the Ye Qiong tribe's material reserves next year.

At that time, there will be conditions to draw more tribes over. As long as the subversive things like trains are brought out, other tribes will only need to see the existence of this monster and know how powerful its performance is, then they will incorporate more. Tribe, it becomes very simple.
