The mountains in the distance towered into the clouds, and the sky began to darken.
There was a bad fever in the south, and the husband died young.
The heavy sea of clouds in the sky seemed to be covered by a plateau.
Yu Meng didn't know if it was the legendary vast wilderness controlled by the Emperor of Heaven, the ridge of mountains and seas, but this thick, vast, boundless and heavy white wave had never been seen before in the Central Plains.
"Heavy rain is coming!"
Yu Meng is the archer in the tribe and the best at archery among the young people. He usually goes out with the tree-cutting team, and Yu Fou will arrange for him to be a lookout to prevent the intrusion of wild beasts.
He is good at climbing trees, often climbing very high, and then uses branches and rattan to build a simple platform, and then sits on it for half a day.
But today it seems I can’t sit for long periods of time.
Yu Meng's voice reached the ears of Yu Fu below, who raised his head and looked at the sudden change in the sky, showing a solemn expression.
"Let's go, that's it for today, drag the wood back!"
Guan Fou quickly gathered the young men who cut down the trees. Because Ruan Zai asked the tree fellers to allocate part of their manpower to build the wall, the number of people with Guan Fou was decreasing day by day. However, the demand for wood was not too huge for the time being.
As far as fou is concerned, it is actually easier to manage if there are fewer people, so as to prevent people from being greedy and eating things they shouldn't.
In the southern wilderness, there are often some strange poisonous weeds in the wet forests. I heard that farther south, beyond the mountains that are towering like the walls of the Emperor of Heaven, in Lingnan, there are also strange poisonous mushrooms. Those things,
It's delicious, but it's deadly.
"Hey!"
"Hey!"
"Work harder!"
The noisy sound of transporting was heard, and the teenagers worked together to lift the wood. They tied some thick wood with strong rattan, and then placed the two largest pieces of wood underneath as rollers.
This is the earliest and most primitive "transport vehicle".
During the Huangdi era, the Xue family was good at making transportation tools, and their wisdom was this simple sled-type rolling cart.
You only need to put the largest logs underneath, lay wooden boards on top, and then use animals to pull them to make the car move.
The appearance of the wheel was at least 10,000 years ago. A kind of moon wheel was invented by a certain tribe. Unfortunately, it was not widely used. The tribe went out of business and disappeared completely in the long river of history. This is the Hechi.
The opposite outcome for the Fang family was that they were unwilling to migrate and thus became slaves of others.
Because the Xue family had good relations with various tribes, their car-making skills were getting better and better, and they were not attacked by the big tribes. They also figured out how to operate the wheel again.
However, Xue's wheels were used on vehicles for transportation, and that tribe that disappeared might have been famous for their weaving, so their technical wheels were used as "spinning pendants."
That is, the "spinning wheel".
As for the compass made by Huang Di and Feng Hou, which is the ancient sky-viewing disk, it can be regarded as a black technology that cannot be copied.
After all, the five great masters of black technology during the Huangdi period were Huangdi (one), Fenghou (two), Chiyou (three), Cangjie (fourth), and Lishou (five).
The Yellow Emperor made the crown and the compass, and developed Shennong's two grains and turned them into five grains. Feng Hou made the formation and the compass. Needless to say, Chi You made a series of swords, guns, swords and armor that saved lives and killed people.
, and Cangjie invented writing, inherited the mantle of Fuxi, and pioneered mathematics.
But now, the black technology of the compass is beyond the times and impossible to develop. In addition, various gods later intentionally restricted it, and it was not until Emperor Zhuanxu that the reform and opening up began. Therefore, the tribal people all over the world are still using the most primitive invention invented by the Xue tribe.
method of building a car.
The huge log rolled. There were more than a dozen young warriors around to keep the log stable so that it would not protrude too much in a certain direction. They all held stone hammers in their hands. If the log started to protrude, they would
Hit it hard with a hammer to prompt you to slow down the pulling speed.
But God does not follow people's wishes.
The first drop of rain fell on the tip of Yu Fu's nose, and his face instantly became a little ugly.
"Quick, quick! It's raining!"
As Yu Fou spoke, he exerted all his strength, and the young people around him screamed as if they had been given blood.
"Hey! Hey! Work harder!"
The logs rumbled and rolled on the muddy ground. The reason why everyone was afraid of rain was because they were afraid that the heavy rain would rot the soil. Then the logs would sink into the soil, which would be bad.
Yumeng jumped from the tree, picked up the cane, and shouted below: "If it doesn't work, just leave it here! Let's go back first. Didn't Wu say last time that protecting manpower is the most important thing!"
Yufu gritted her teeth and responded loudly:
"I heard that it rains a lot in the south, and it rains all the time! If this rain starts, I don't know how long it will last. Look at the clouds, they are so thick. It may be a short thunderstorm, or it may be a torrential rain for several days!
"
"We don't have Nanzheng, so we have no way to deduce the celestial phenomena. All the answers are told to us by the old patriarchs and shamans, but now we are far away from the wilderness!"
"We consume wood every day. If this batch of wood cannot be sent back, it is likely that there will be no way to light fires in the tribe in a few days. A lot of wood is also consumed for building, making utensils, repairing sheds, etc.
Need wood!”
"Without wood, we can't afford a bonfire, so we can't start making pottery. We can only rely on the power of witches for the time being, but witches are weak and we can't completely rely on witches!"
The tribe has just started, so it naturally has no resource reserves of wood. The wood brought back every day will be quickly consumed. It uses manpower and busyness to offset the time and speed up development. Therefore, Yu Fou knows very well that it cannot be underestimated.
In any batch of wood, some things can be given up, but some things cannot be thrown away.
Moreover, if the wood is soaked in water for several days, it is likely to breed silverfish, and it will soon rot.
Yu Fou didn't want to give up the wood, but Yu Meng's suggestion was not unreasonable.
As Wu said, human life is the most important. Without people, nothing is lost.
But in fact, the more people are afraid of something, the more God likes to do something for you.
The solid land has become muddy. Just ten days of transportation is not enough to turn this land into solid hard soil that is not afraid of rain. But come to think of it, even hard soil cannot resist this kind of rain.
of rain.
It was like a big hole had leaked in the sky, and huge water poured down like a river. The soldiers were soaked from head to toe, and they were panting. There was a small hill in front of them. Turn over.
You can see the tribe’s earthen wall!
"We're still a little short of it! Everyone, work harder! For the sake of the tribe!"
Yu Fou tied up the cane and tied it around his waist. The young men followed suit. When Yu Meng also wanted to do the same, Yu Fou stopped him.
"We need you to keep watch for us and anticipate danger."
Yumeng was silent. He saw many young men looking towards him and nodding towards him.
The log began to struggle, splashing mud and water, and crawled from the flat ground to the slope of the hill.
The old vine pulls like a bowstring stretched to its extreme.
There was a low rumbling sound, accompanied by the splashing sound of muddy water. The young people's eyes were covered with rain and they could not see clearly in front of them. Yufu pulled hard and was just one step away from pulling over this small slope!
The old vine around my waist suddenly burst!
Yufu's feet suddenly slipped and she rolled down the slope!
But right after, a not too strong but warm hand grabbed his wrist!
Snapped!
When Rufu looked up, he saw the same young face. After a brief moment of astonishment, he immediately became overjoyed.
