Throne of Vientiane Civilization

The Black Forest, you can say it’s broken, not only salt is produced here, but coal mines are also definitely produced here. Just relying on the output of these two resources, it is absolutely impossible to say that it is broken.

But if you want to say it is fine, it is surrounded by wasteland, and there is no sufficient and stable fresh water resource. Animals do not come here to drink water. Only tenacious mice and insects can survive here.

The trees grow in strange shapes, and they look like they are in a ghost movie at night.

Staying here, you can only live by eating rats, insects, and gnawing bark and roots.

According to Zhou Xu's initial thoughts, this was a temporary foothold for their tribe. At that time, they had no choice but to settle here temporarily.

They may stay here for two or three months, and when they gather a wave of food, open the surrounding map, and find a better place to live, they will pat their butts and leave.

But now...

The existence of these two resources really made him a little bit reluctant.

The emergence of coal mines is too important for the subsequent development of the forging industry.

In fact, even leaving aside the forging industry, to put it more closely, as a fuel, coal ore is better stored than tree branches, saves space, and at the same time is more burnable.

With coal ore as the main fuel, they can further reduce the time spent picking up branches, and use limited manpower in other places.

For example, to explore abroad!

Why was the efficiency of exploration low before?

Because they don't have a dedicated exploration team!

When Dashan and the others were exploring the black forest, they had to collect materials along the way, picking up branches, stones, and catching bugs.

In the tribe, the task of supplying this piece of resources fell on Dashan and the others, which made them have a very heavy collection task.

Under this premise, they collected while walking. After collecting to a certain extent, their actions were affected, and they had to go back to the tribal camp.

And this time and again, a lot of time was wasted, and it was difficult to improve the efficiency of exploration.

But this is impossible, because if they cannot collect enough materials to bring back, the internal operation of their tribe will be affected, and it will directly affect the survival of all tribe members.

Putting exploration and survival together, of course survival is the priority, living first.

Before, he made bark ropes and tied them so that Dashan and the others could bring back more branches at a time, thus improving the overall work efficiency.

But even so, this improvement is not big enough to allow them to carry out exploration tasks regardless.

The emergence of coal ore undoubtedly made everything different.

However, in order to collect coal ore, the manual team undoubtedly had to usher in a new task, which was to polish the stone pick.

At this moment, Zhou Xu has sorted out a rough plan in his mind, and now he is waiting to implement it step by step.

Of course, let’s have a big meal today!

This spider's legs are very thick, the thickest part is as thick as a grown man's waist, the whole leg can't be roasted at all.

In fact, even if the joints were pinched and cut open section by section with a stone axe, the spider's legs were still too big.

But they obviously don't feel distressed by it, they just stare at the thick spider legs with joy.

The stone stoves in the tribe, which had increased to five, were quickly lit, and they started roasting without any nonsense.

Zhou Xu had only seen that kind of food in some anime before, and it didn't exist in reality.

I never thought that there would be a day when I could eat it.

However, he has no experience in cooking such a big guy, so he can only follow his intuition.

Sniffing, guessing that it was almost baked, he smashed the shell with a stone axe.

All of a sudden, a gust of heat visible to the naked eye wafted out with a clearer smell of meat.

After removing the broken shell, Zhou Xu couldn't help grinning at the next scene.

And the tribe members around couldn't help swallowing their saliva.

I saw that the entire inside of the carapace was really stuffed with white leg meat, and the whole flesh was so tight that the naked eye could see it.

Use two branches of suitable length and torn bark as chopsticks, and tear the leg meat into large pieces to see if it is cooked.

"Well, it should be familiar."

While muttering to himself, Zhou Xu directly used the shell that was knocked off as a plate, and a piece of leg meat he picked out was as big as a fist. It was so tempting that his stomach couldn't stop howling.

Sprinkle a little coarse salt, and without further ado, he took a big mouthful first.

At that moment, Zhou Xu couldn't help but look up at the sky with the feeling that his entire mouth was filled with flesh.

[The so-called 'happiness' is probably like this? 】

This is his truest thought at this moment.

"Let's divide up, everyone."

There was no crowding, and after obtaining Zhou Xu's permission, everyone methodically began to divide up the food in front of them.

The amount of meat on this spider's leg is really unexpected. It is not based on the premise of eating enough. In the case of just getting rid of 'hunger', basically, two spider legs are enough for them all to fall into one. meal.

One meal a day, eight spider legs are enough for them to eat for four days.

And in these four days, they can make all the mice they caught into cured meat, increase their food reserves, and prepare for the next operation.

It's a new day. I don't know if it's because we had a full meal before going to bed yesterday. Everyone is in a good state of mind.

At this moment, Dashan and Feique had already set off with the hunting team and gathering team, while Zhou Xu stayed in the tribe and asked the handicraft team to polish the stone pick.

After all, if the stone pickaxes were not made, they would not be able to mine coal mines, which would have an impact on subsequent plans.

Of course, this matter is easy to solve. Now that the stone axes have been polished, there is no reason why they cannot polish the stone pick.

At this point in time, the demand for stone axes in their tribe has begun to decline, which allows Zhou Xu to very smoothly mobilize manpower to polish the stone pickaxes.

During this period of time, Dashan and the others basically completed their exploration of the entire black forest.

What can be confirmed now is that the ground fissure cave, which is the lair of the big spider, is located in the central area of ​​this black forest. Other than that, there is nothing new to discover.

Considering the increase in the scope of exploration, Zhou Xu has been thinking about making maps recently.

[Although there is no ink dye, it should be replaced by some colored plant slurries. The pen can be made of branches. If it is paper, it will definitely not be possible to do it now, but you can also use animal skin first...]

The update will be delivered, and the second round of recommendations will be confirmed this Sunday. Friends, don’t forget to vote after reading it~
