- Village Chief Qiege's words also made Zhang Tie think deeply. Based on the above points, the tide of beasts in the ice and snow wasteland is indeed too weird. No wonder they have recruited all the wilderness guardians from the Guardian God Sect.
"Did that wilderness guardian discover anything?"
"I don't know, that person just stayed in Kurgan Village for one night. The situation he wanted to know was what I just said. After learning these situations, the person left!" At this point, Qi Qi Village Chief Ge seemed to have remembered something, "By the way, that man had a pet, a huge black giant eagle. When I sent him away from the village, the giant eagle fell from the sky. It startled me.
The strange beast tide, the wilderness guardian of the Guardian God Sect who came here with the black giant eagle to investigate the truth, after stringing these contents together, for some reason, what appeared in Zhang Tie's mind was not something else, but something else. It was the iron-billed ibises that he encountered in the air when he came to Huaiyuan County by airship. Because of the attacks of those iron-billed ibises, many air traffic routes on the Hawaiian subcontinent have been greatly affected until now. Some are even in danger of being cut off.
Is there any connection between these?
Zhang Tie almost instinctively smelled a hint of danger, but this incident had no negative impact on him for the time being. Not only did it have no negative impact, but it also made it easier for him to condense the Seven Power Fruit, so this incident also made it easier for him to gather the Seven Power Fruit. Zhang Tie put a note in his heart and let it go.
For Zhang Tie at this time, no matter what happens in the future, only improving his own strength is the most important thing.
Today¡¯s dinner was very sumptuous, and it was one of the rare delicacies Zhang Tie had tasted during this period, especially the sea buckthorn wine brewed in the village. The taste is absolutely unforgettable.
The process of self-brewed sea buckthorn wine in Kurgan Village is very simple. It is to wash and crush the picked sea buckthorn, then mix it with sugar and put it in a wooden barrel for fermentation. It is similar to the fermentation process of wine. Village Chief Ziege said that almost everyone in the entire ice and snow wasteland can brew sea buckthorn wine, and everyone grew up drinking sea buckthorn wine. Not only does sea buckthorn wine taste very good, but people who drink it regularly have very good health and almost no health problems. What disease will happen?
If it was before. Zhang Tie will definitely be surprised, but at this time, Zhang Tie knows very well that the process of brewing sea buckthorn wine by the aborigines in the ice and snow wasteland is actually the fermentation process of enzymes. Although people here may not know what enzymes are. However, the wisdom they gathered in life allowed them to instinctively find a way to easily obtain a large amount of enzymes in the ice and snow wasteland.
People here seem to be inseparable from seabuckthorn. The seabuckthorn tea, seabuckthorn wine, seabuckthorn oil, and seabuckthorn branches that are broken off by people in autumn to store firewood for the winter are all closely related to the lives of people here.
There are even sea buckthorns planted outside the village. It has also become a barrier for the village. The neat seabuckthorn trees are like rows of guards. Because of these seabuckthorn trees, even wild beasts cannot approach the village unscrupulously from all directions, but must come from some reserved areas. You can only get close through the passage, which greatly increases the probability of people discovering those dangerous large beasts when they approach the village.
In addition, sea buckthorn also has the ability to fertilize the soil. Those originally barren lands can grow plants with strong vitality such as potatoes as long as they have been planted with sea buckthorn for a few years. Provide food for people. Various villages in the ice and snow wasteland often interplant wheat in the seabuckthorn forest, and the harvests are very good.
It can be said that without sea buckthorn, people in the entire ice and snow wasteland may not be able to survive as they do now. Everyone's living conditions and quality of life will be affected by this plant, because this plant is so important to the people in the ice and snow wasteland.
This kind of sea buckthorn, which looks ordinary and can be seen everywhere, has long become the most important guarantee for people here to survive in the ice and snow wasteland. Sea buckthorn is not only a source of food for people, but its fruits and leaves are not only convenient for storage, but also It is edible, and it is the main energy and fuel that allows people to survive the long winter here. It is also the most important economic crop. It is responsible for exporting and earning gold coins for the people here. Finally, it also plays the role of reclaiming wasteland and fertilizing the land, constantly expanding the place. It is hard to imagine how people here would live without sea buckthorn in the ice and snow wasteland.
Village Chief Qie Ge introduced the functions of sea buckthorn while having dinner and drinking with Zhang Tie. After hearing those words, Zhang Tie suddenly had an idea in his mind. He didn't know how to use sea buckthorn with such a wide range of uses in the Black Iron Castle. Will completing a mutation and evolution make it even more magical?
As soon as this idea appeared in Zhang Tie¡¯s mind, Zhang Tie felt a little excited. This kind of hands-onThe sense of accomplishment of creating a species is indeed very refreshing. When Zhang Tie was thinking about the possibility of creating a new sea buckthorn species with more powerful effects and various functions, suddenly, an idea crossed his mind. It struck him like lightning. Zhang Tie's body suddenly stiffened while he was eating.
What would happen if the entire ice and snow wasteland were filled with new seabuckthorn species created by themselves, and the residents here had become accustomed to the new seabuckthorn bringing them a better life, and had become dependent on them? ?
Zhang Tie's body trembled slightly as he thought of some of the contents he had seen in the general history of the human race that he had learned at Huaiyuantang.
Before the Cataclysm, the demons and their agents and lackeys among the human race used scientific and technological means to control the seeds of food on the planet, and then controlled human agriculture and food production without leaving a trace. After eliminating human food and agricultural production, human beings are actually under the rule of the demons and their agents and lackeys in the human race.
The food seeds provided by the demons to humans are inherently poisonous. The toxins in those seeds are not ordinary chemical toxins, but more terrifying genetic viruses. The food grown from those seeds carries those genetic viruses and can therefore be controlled. Human genes and DNA make humans short-lived, sickly, physically weak, and mentally retarded. and even loss of fertility. The food seeds provided by the demons to humans actually castrate humans, causing humans to permanently lose the ability to fight against the demons. As long as they eat things grown from those seeds, humans must submit to the rule of the demons. There is no second chance. Two roads.
At that time, the Chinese people were under the conspiracy of the demons. The entire race paid a heavy price before finally awakening and becoming the backbone of the human race to resist the demons and engage in two holy wars with the demons.
¡°If I create a new seabuckthorn tree species, I certainly won¡¯t use it to poison the people living on this land, but. If the people here will rely on those sea buckthorn trees for their lives, then just like the demons used food seeds to rule humans, they can also have a strong influence in the ice and snow wasteland by controlling and using those sea buckthorn trees. The logical relationship between them is consistent.
If it were before, Zhang Tie might not have such ambitious ideas. But at this moment, as soon as this idea appeared, it immediately spread like weeds in Zhang Tie's heart.
Seeing Zhang Tie stop his movements, Village Chief Qige thought that the food they were serving Zhang Tie was not to Zhang Tie's taste, and asked with some concern, "What, don't you like this?"
"Ah. Of course not!" Zhang Tie suddenly laughed, "I just heard you talk about the many functions of sea buckthorn, and I couldn't help but want to find some seeds of this plant to take back as a souvenir! "
"Do you want sea buckthorn seeds?" Village Chief Qiege asked.
"Is there any more in the village? If not, it would be the same if I went to the wild to find some myself!"
Village Chief Qiege burst out laughing and said boldly, "There are many seabuckthorn seeds in Kurgan Village. Those seabuckthorn seeds are used to extract oil. There are many seabuckthorn seeds piled in the mill in the village." "Sure, there are still a few hundred kilograms left. You can take as much as you want. If you have a place to stay, I can ask all the young people in the village to send it to you!"
¡°You don¡¯t need so much, just a small bag, half a kilogram is enough!¡±
"Hashan. Go, find a small sack, and bring Peter a small bag of sea buckthorn seeds from the mill in the village!" Village Chief Qie Ge said as he touched his six or seven-year-old grandson named Hasan.
Hearing this, the grandson of Village Chief Qige glanced at Zhang Tie, nodded and rushed out of the door. After a while, he came back with a small sack containing about one or two kilograms of sea buckthorn seeds. Already
Seeing those sea buckthorn seeds, Zhang Tie narrowed his eyes slightly. The more seeds there are, for the Black Iron Fortress, as long as they are willing to invest, it means that they can obtain a complete evolution and mutation in the shortest time. There is no need for too many sea buckthorn seeds. As long as you use different plans to invest different merit values, aura values ??and basic energy reserves into more than 300 sea buckthorn seeds at the same time in the Black Iron Castle, you may be able to obtain them at once. A brand new sea buckthorn seed. Even if the chance of these sea buckthorn species mutating and evolving in the Black Iron Castle was low, it would not be worth the numerical advantage gained by investing so many seeds at the same time. This is to seek qualitative change through quantitative change.
Zhang Tie laughed when he thought that at some point in the future, the entire ice and snow wasteland would be filled with seabuckthorn trees that would be "obedient" to him.
After dinner, it was getting dark, and I was chatting with Village Chief Qige in the yard.?, Zhang Tie, who was constantly expanding his knowledge of the ice and snow wasteland, met Ivan's boys again. Those boys came over to invite Zhang Tie to the bonfire party in the evening.
"Go, the night belongs to you young people, and you are the only ones at the bonfire party. Old people like us will not be an eyesore!" Village Chief Qige also encouraged Zhang Tie to go to the bonfire party.
Zhang Tieze readily agreed without much thought. Anyway, it was still early to go to bed at this time, and everyone was young, so it was okay to go and have a look.
Seeing that Zhang Tie agreed, Ivan and the other boys were very happy. When they were about to leave, Ivan pointed to the heavy repeating crossbow that Zhang Tie had placed at the home of Village Chief Qiege, "Can you take that big guy?" Take it with you too, many people have never seen such a crossbow, and many people in the village want to broaden their horizons!"
Zhang Tie picked up the crossbow without saying a word, and everyone laughed.
The bonfire party in Kurgan Village is held in an open space in the middle of the village. Every night, this is the world of young people and children in Kurgan Village. Everyone sets up a large fire in the open space and surrounds the fire. Sit together and chat. Drinking, singing, dancing, and sharing the harvest of the day, young people who are restless in adolescence wrestle here or compete with their peers to learn combat skills, etc. Crowded.
The hard-working girls from Kurgan Village who had been helping with work at home during the day also came out. The girls sat together with the boys, laughing and playing together without any shyness.
The children were running around the fire, catching fireflies or playing hide-and-seek games.
¡°No married or elderly people in the village would come to such a gathering in Kurgan Village at night. Therefore, there are basically no restrictions here, and it is a world dominated by young people.
Ivan said that such gatherings happen every day and are not specially held for Zhang Tie. As long as the weather permits or there are no other things, the young people in the village will spend time here every night. Everyone has loved attending such parties since childhood.
Before arriving at the venue, Zhang Tie saw a blazing fire burning in the distance and heard the laughter and the sounds of children playing.
When he arrived at the party, Zhang Tie found that there were about four to five hundred people in the entire party, not too many, not too few, and the atmosphere was lively and casual. All the people here, the oldest is in his early twenties, and the youngest is five or six years old, still running around naked, everyone's face reveals a sense of relaxation and joy. expression.
When I came to Zhang Tie's place, I noticed that just beside the bonfire, more than 20 young people had marked out an area, and several dozen people wrapped in animal skins were standing there dozens of meters away. The straw men were playing a game of throwing flying spears, and everyone was having a great time.
This is not a bonfire party. It is clearly an open-air party held by the young people in Kurgan Village every night. Every night I have this kind of lively gathering and communication with a lot of familiar peers. This kind of treatment is really something that ordinary citizens like me who have lived in the city since childhood cannot enjoy it. The place where young people in the city hang out is the bar, but the atmosphere and feeling in the bar are nothing compared to here. Not to mention, I was extremely poor back then. I simply can¡¯t afford to go to a place like a bar to spend money.
At this moment, to be honest, Zhang Tiecong felt a little envious of the nightlife of these young people in Kurgan Village. It was such a happy, harmonious, and comfortable gathering. No one spent much money, there was only a fire, but everyone's happiness was something that many people could not buy by spending a lot of gold coins.
Zhang Tie's arrival did not cause any sensation, and his appearance had no sound and light effects, nor was it grand. Everyone here was very casual and comfortable. Zhang Tie and Ivan naturally sat down next to Boer, who they met during the day. In the circle where the young men from Mana were, everyone started chatting happily.
The heavy metal repeating crossbow that Zhang Tie brought seemed to attract more attention than Zhang Tie. As soon as the big guy took it out, a lot of young people gathered around and wanted to try it out. try.
After teaching those people how to adjust the torque gear used to wind up the hydraulic slide rod of the big guy, the big guy left Zhang Tie's hands and began to pass it around among a group of young people, touching it here and there. , many people want to try to pick up this heavy metal machine crossbow.
Those who could pick up the crossbow looked at Zhang Tie with admiration in their eyes, while those who blushed and couldn't pick up the crossbow were not too embarrassed, just a little bit uncomfortable. Sorry, because there are always bursts of good-natured laughter all around.
After obtaining Zhang Tie¡¯s consent, several young people even wanted to try this heavy weapon.?The power of the metal crossbow. Ivan and others said that this crossbow can pierce an iron-toothed hyena from a distance of one hundred meters and still retain its power. It can make the crossbow arrows sink into the ground of the gray hills, without any damage Not showing it made everyone a little eager to try it.
When the crossbow was being tested, almost all the young people gathered around to watch the fun.
The place where the young people in Kurgan Village tested the power of the crossbow was right where the group of young people were competing on javelin throwing skills. Zhang Tie asked the young people to arrange three targets originally used for javelin throwing in a line, and then at 40 meters External test firing.
Because almost none of the young people in the village could hold the big gun and make horizontal aiming and shooting movements as easily as Zhang Tie, so the big gun was directly lifted to a height of one and a half by several young people in the village. The wooden vaulting horse that the children played on was so tall, and everyone started shooting while the vaulting horse dragged the metal tripod opened by the big guy.
Boorman was the first to test fire. He inserted a metal crossbow magazine into the magazine slot under the crossbow, and after struggling to slide the winding slide eight times, he finally clicked the heavy machine gun. The crossbow is well strung. Then he put one shoulder against the folding handle of the crossbow, aimed for a few seconds, and then pulled the trigger.
Everyone almost didn¡¯t hear the slight buzzing sound when the crossbow was launched, but only saw the three targets in the distance exploding at the same time.
"Wow" All the young people in Kurgan Village exclaimed. The power of this crossbow exceeded many people's imagination.
"This thing can't be made even in Eskil City" A young man sighed, "I have seen the heavy-duty crossbows made in Eskil City. There is no such power at all, and there is no such thing. delicate!"
"This thing should cost a lot of money!" Ivan looked at the crossbow and asked Zhang Tie with stars in his eyes.
"Well, probably!" In fact, even Zhang Tie is not very clear about the price of this heavy machine crossbow, because this machine crossbow is exactly what Zhang Tie got from the Zhen Family Guild Hall in Tianhan City a few days ago. The arms obtained from the warehouse were entirely imported from the mainland. In the Black Iron Castle, there are more than a dozen of the same heavy machine crossbows. After coming to the gray hill, Zhang Tie found that using this tool to kill those iron-toothed hyenas was the most efficient and the least troublesome, so he started from Black Iron. I took out a handful of these big guys from the castle.
Something like this. In Huaiyuan County, Zhang Tie estimated that the price of a machine crossbow should be around 400 gold coins, and the price in other places may be higher. The price of a T9 sports car is only over 500 gold coins. In this sense, the price of this crossbow is indeed very expensive.
Later, almost every twelve-year-old young man in Kurgan Village lined up to take a test shot, and even the girls joined in without showing any signs of weakness. One by one, they became addicted to a heavy machine crossbow.
Tonight's party was lively and joyful. Zhang Tie also casually played the role of weapons instructor and operation instructor, teaching the young people in Kurgan Village how to operate and shoot this heavy-duty crossbow. . After all, this kind of thing is a bit like the large-caliber heavy weapons before the cataclysm. Not everyone has the opportunity to play with it. And tonight, this thing became a big toy at the bonfire party, making a large group of people happy.
Zhang Tie himself felt very happy after spending a night playing with a group of peers without any scheming.
¡¡
The bonfire party didn¡¯t disperse until almost twelve o¡¯clock in the evening. As the flames in the fire gradually dimmed, the young people who had played together all night also returned to their homes.
Zhang Tie was arranged by the village chief Qige to live in the only public house in the whole village, that public house. That is, small wooden houses built by people in Kurgan Village. When relatives or guests of a family come to Kurgan Village and the family cannot live in them, they can live in public houses. The last time I came to Kurgan The wilderness guardian of the village's guardian god sect also lives in a public house in Kurgan Village.
About this. Zhang Tie naturally had no objection, because he found that the wooden cabins used as public housing were actually better built than the cabins in most people's homes, and although the bedding and other things in the public housing did not look new, they were all washed very clean. , it smells like sunshine, these are all prepared for him.
¡¡
After the lights in every house in Kurgan Village were extinguished, Zhang Tie, who was sleeping on the bed, was about to enter the Black Iron Castle to taste the Seven Power Fruit harvested today, but his ears suddenly heard the sound of something ringing outside the cabin. The sound of subtle footsteps suddenly made Zhang Tie stop thinking about entering the Black Iron Castle.
It¡¯s so late, who could it be?
"Dong dong dong" After waiting for a while, someone finally knocked on his door gently.
When the sound rang for the second time, Zhang Tie got out of bed and opened the wooden door of the cabin.
A young and beautiful girl of eighteen or nineteen years old stood outside the door, wearing a big bearskin cloak. Zhang Tie seemed to be able to smell the scent of floral dew on this girl's body just after taking a bath.
This girl looks familiar. I think I¡¯ve met her once tonight. By the way, she seems to be Ivan¡¯s sister
Before Zhang Tie could speak, the girl smiled, walked in, closed the door herself, and then took off her bearskin cloak, letting the cloak fall to the floor of the wooden house, revealing a crystal-clear body. The body appeared in front of Zhang Tie - Didn't finish reading?
