The Strongest Tribe

Chapter 18: Wild jungle version of simple salt distillation method

   The next morning, Xia Tuo took the deer and left the tribe, all carrying rattan baskets woven with vines on his back, and inside were placed animal skins for salt replacement.

   In the past, every time I went to the Lu tribe to exchange salt, the animal skins and other resources stored in the tribe would be consumed.

   Deer followed Xia Tuo, with the black wolf skin and scales in the rattan basket on his back. This is the black wolf that was hunted yesterday, and it exudes strong blood.

   "Patriarch, you will reach the Lu tribe after turning over the Niutou Mountain and entering a valley."

  Lu used to follow Hong to the Lu tribe to exchange salt, which is why Xia Tuo brought him out.

   The Lu tribe is in the valley under Niutou Mountain. Xia Tuo speculates that there should be salt mines in the valley, but I don’t know the purity of the salt. However, the Lu tribe does have an expert who actually mixes salt into the gravel for trading.

   After the two men climbed down Niutoushan without any risk, they were blocked at the mouth of the valley.

  咻!

   An arrow feather shot out from the dense woods and stuck not far from Xia Tuo's feet.

   "Arrow."

   Xia Tuo's eyes were straight now, there must be a bow if there is an arrow.

   At Xia Tuo's sign, the deer stepped forward and shouted: "We are from the Xia tribe, come to change the salt."

Not far away, a tree leaned against a huge tree on the mountain wall, and the sound rang out. The branches of the huge tree were entwined into a huge bird's nest. The two figures were covered with a lot of bird feathers, lying in the bird's nest watching the summer Tuo two people.

   "Xia Tribe?"

   Tu tilted his head and glanced at Bai beside him, and asked, "I haven't heard of it."

   "We are from the valley beyond nine mountains. I was there last time."

"It's him?"

   Bai squinted at the deer.

"You know him."

   Bai shook his head and said, "I don't know."

   There are many tribes in the Wangu Mountains who come to their Lu tribe to exchange salt, and he can recognize it everywhere.

   At Xia Tuo's gesture, the deer then shouted: "We have brought the scale armor of the black wolf in the cracked stone realm."

   Xia Tuo looked at the huge bird's nest on the tree, cutting root hair on his head and really thought he was a bird.

   Soon, the two guys in the bird's nest turned over from the tree branches. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xia Tuo quickly stepped forward, grabbed the arrow feathers tied on the ground, and threw them into the forest behind him.

   His gaze was fixed on the two people who came, with simple animal skin armor on his body, and one of them was holding a jet black bow in his hand.

   As expected, the Lu tribe has a bow.

   Miss the system again.

   "The leader of the Xiaxia tribe, come to your ministry to exchange salt."

   "What's your name?"

   "We are the Lu tribe, not the expensive tribe."

   "……"

   Looking at the two guys with bird feathers on their heads, Xia Tuo shut himself up.

   "Hehe, the bow is good."

   Seeing the guy holding the bow sweeping his eyes, he stepped forward and said with envy in his eyes.

   "I am the most powerful archer of the Lu tribe."

   The guy holding the bow was complimented by Xia Tuo, and he immediately became cowhide, forgetting the arrow he was looking for.

   "I am Bai, he is Tu. You need to change the salt. I will tell the chief later."

After    finished speaking, Bai took a bow and patted Tu next to him, and Tu reluctantly ran towards the valley.

   "If you can hold a bow, you must be the most powerful warrior in the tribe."

   Looking at the alert look in his white eyes, Xia Tuo dispelled the urge to watch the bow in his hand.

   Not long after, Tu ran back from the valley and shouted: "The leader will let you into the tribe."

   Under the guidance of Tu, Xia Tuo and Lu entered the Lu tribe in the valley. Like their tribe, the Lu tribe lives in caves in the valley. At the mouth of the valley there is a defensive wall formed by simple piles of huge rocks.

   There are tribal warriors garrisoned on the defensive wall, and further out are Tu and Bai hiding in the bird’s nest as a warning.

   "You want to change the salt."

Just stepping into the tribe, Xia Tuo walked towards a strong man, with a white-bone beast head on his head, two horns, and a variety of scattered small beast bones hanging down. The animal skins were shiny and shiny. .

   The brawny man raised his head two heads higher than Xia, and there was a faint dark blue totem **** pattern flashing on his neck, and a strong blood rushed toward him.

   "Something left."

   Without waiting for Xia Tuo to speak, the brawny man waved his hand. Someone came up behind him and placed two stone pots in front of Xia Tuo.

   The brawny's words directly make him feel like he has entered a wolf's den. It really is a seller's market.

   "Come on."

   Xia Tuo grabbed the deer, took the animal skins from the rattan basket behind him, put the two stone pots in, turned the deer and left.

   After Xia Tuo turned around, the black wolf scales they had brought were immediately picked up by an elderly member of the Lu tribe and checked carefully.

   "Chief, there are a few large holes in this wolf skin, which should be pierced by stone tools, and the wolf bones in the back are broken."

   Even if the wolf skin is damaged, the old man still has satisfaction in his eyes.

   "It seems that this Xia tribe really got lucky and hunted a black wolf."

   The leader of the Lu tribe glanced at the wolf skin, turned around and walked towards the cave, and said: "Make this wolf skin and see if you can make a pair of armor."

   "Chief, will the Xia tribe..."

   The leader turned around and stared, "Unless they stop eating salt."

  ……

   "Patriarch, they are too much."

   Leaving the Lu tribe, the deer cried out uneasy.

   Although they said they had given them two jars of salt this time, what they brought with them was the scaly fur of the fierce beast in the stone-breaking realm.

   Xia Tuo was also very angry, but he did not show it in the Lu tribe. Whoever allowed the family to monopolize the salt, he really had to pretend to be grandson before there were other channels.

  Although he entered the Lu tribe for a short time, he observed that the strength of the Lu tribe far surpassed them, and the Totem Warrior alone saw no fewer than ten.

   It seems that this salt is really profitable. Relying on this hand-made salt method, the Lu tribe’s life is really moisturizing, and people are so powerful because of such strength.

   Treating them like this is probably not an exception.

   After leaving the Lu tribe, Xia Tuo hunted in the woods, and he found the arrow feather that he had thrown into the woods.

   is about three feet long. The arrowhead is made of bone, and the middle is a kind of hardwood, with some feathers stuck to the end, and there is a kind of dried gelatin on it.

   Obviously, the Lu tribe already knows how to refine or use this glue to make bows and arrows. Previously, he let the tribe grind stone spears, not because there were no bows and arrows.

   "Let's go."

   put the arrow feathers in the rattan basket, Xia Tuo returned to the tribe with the deer.

Naturally, these encounters caused the tribes to be very angry. Xia Tuo pressed down one by one, and it was still not clear how many catties he had. He said that it was a tribe that sounds good, and that it was a gathering place for refugees, who wanted **** face, and waited for it to become stronger in the future. , The face naturally comes.

   Of course, many people in the tribe didn’t understand his thoughts. They wanted to copy the guys to fight. Fortunately, they didn’t understand him, but he obeyed Xia Tuo’s orders.

  ……

   At night, the bonfire burned fiercely, illuminating the cave.

   Xia Tuo handed the arrow in his hand to the elder rein below, and said, "Can we make this kind of arrow?"

Elder   缰 did not speak, and handed the arrow to Hong next to him. After a while, the arrow returned to Xia Tuo's hand.

   "The patriarch bow can be made with animal bones, but you need to use beast bones with curved arcs. The bowstring has animal tendons, but we can't make this kind of arrow. This kind of glue that sticks feathers is somehow."

   "Think of a way to make the bow with this transparent glue."

   handed the task of making the bow to the elders, Xia Tuo opened the soil salt from the Lu tribe, and the trading of salt in the Lu tribe’s soil was really popular.

   A pot of salt and a half pot of soil, Xia Tuo took out a fist-sized stone from the stone pot. The Lu tribe is a bit too much. The largest salt grain is no more than a finger-sized, but the stone is a bit big.

   Not only that, the two stone pots in front of him are one big and the other small. The big one is about a foot and a half tall and about a foot in diameter. The thick stone wall can block arrows.

   The smaller one is one foot high. According to the rules, these two jars are each a quarter of salt. This counts even the stone jars.

   But there is no way to do this. Who can let people have their own hands?

   Under the light of the fire, the salt grains glowed blue and exuded a faint astringency.

   Grasping the salt grains, Xia Tuo's expression was a bit ferocious under the light of the fire, and he said cruelly: "I want to substitute salt for myself."

After the order went down, Feng soon brought a woman from the tribe called Mu. The two came with a few stone jars and a stone with a depression in the middle. The darkness under the stone was obviously burnt. Not a short day.

   After first picking out the sand grains from the jar, he grabbed two salt grains and placed them in one of the stone jars. After adding the well water and stirring, all the spirit salt grains melted.

  Unexpectedly, the salt water was turbid, with cyan floccules floating.

   asked the wood to pick out the flocs in the water and pour it into another stone pot to filter out the sand particles. After doing this several times, the salt water was poured into the groove in the stone.

   While using the wood to filter the salt water, Xia Tuo used stones to build a table on the bonfire, and put the salted stone up.

   He was not a master in the world he lived in. He failed in mathematics, physics and chemistry, so he could only remember such a few things, and then he could only look at God's will.

   The flame burned the stone, and soon the water in the groove was boiled. Under Xia Tuo's signal, Mu still added firewood toward the bottom.

   Soon a thin layer of white and delicate surface appeared on the surface of the groove.

   It's done!

   Xia Tuo stretched his head and looked towards the stone groove. Although Bai Temping still had a mottled blue color, it was much better than the initial salt grains.

   After a long time, the water in the stone was evaporated, and a layer of fine salt crystals adhered to the surface of the groove. Xia Tuo reached out and touched it a bit and licked it with his tongue.

Ok.

   salty!

  Although it still has a bitter taste, it also shows that his wild jungle version of the distilled salt method works, but it is a pity that there is no iron pot.

   But it's all mixed up, what's not to be satisfied with.

   Collected the salt in the rock groove, only a small handful, but it was white, and it was many times better than the salt in the stone pot.

   Until this moment, the wind reacted from the sluggishness and ran out hurriedly.
