Chapter 863: Purple Soil (Subscription Requested)
The appearance of Han Cheng and his group at this time can only be described as miserable.
Except for the few female primitives who followed the tribe, the rest of the team were all bearded, and Han Cheng, who was already the father of two children, was the same.
And everyone has lost a lot of weight, and the clothes they wear on their bodies are already a little big when they leave.
Keeping your mouth shut and opening your legs is really the supreme way to lose weight.
I can't keep my mouth shut, and it's nice to be able to open my legs.
Compared to Han Cheng and their line, on the way, Han Cheng tried his best to increase the nutrition of the people in the tribe without losing the opportunity, but after such a hard work, they were all still thin.
If it weren't for the fact that the clothes worn by everyone were made of leather, and they were all covered with sturdy rattan armor, I was afraid that after this action, the clothes on everyone's bodies would become strips.
"Let's go! Let's go down! ”
After standing here and resting for a while, Han Cheng greeted everyone out loud, then picked up his backpack, fastened the upper and lower straps, and began to walk down.
After the rest of the people heard Han Cheng's greeting, they all got up one after another, put on their backpacks, took their weapons, and walked down with Han Cheng.
There were two people carrying rattan shields, and they rushed to the front of Han Cheng and protected Han Cheng with rattan shields.
Keeping the Son safe at all times was a principle that all of them followed.
Don't say that Wu, Senior Brother and others gave an explanation when they set off, even if they didn't explain, they would do it spontaneously.
With them, don't want to hurt their gods!
After many days of shuttling, and finally seeing a place with a wide field of vision, everyone couldn't help but be full of excitement, not as happy as walking in the desert for many days to finally see the oasis, but there should be a lot of joy.
Regardless of whether this is the south as mentioned by the Son of God for the time being, this open vision alone is enough for everyone to be happy.
Everyone went all the way down this mountain bag, and after walking for a while, they completely walked the mountain bag.
When they stepped on the ground that seemed flat, everyone, including Han Cheng, couldn't help but feel excited in their hearts.
"Let's go! Go over there, get there, let's have a good rest. ”
Han Cheng pointed diagonally ahead and said to everyone.
As he stood on the mountain, he had condescendingly taken advantage of the situation to carefully examine the terrain and knew that there was a small river there.
In this era, where there is water, there are fish, and of course, water here refers to the water that exists on the surface of the earth in nature, except for the needs of artificial water such as tears, sweat, and saliva.
Come to the water source early, throw the fish cage you carry with you into the water, and some food will be guaranteed.
They can also use crockpots to boil some hot water, some of which are cooled and drunk, and the other part is used for washing and soaking their feet.
Along the way, at Han Cheng's insistence, soaking feet in hot water has become an indispensable procedure, which can well alleviate the fatigue on the feet and allow the people in the team to have a longer endurance.
Han Cheng had already decided, whether this was the south or not, he would take people here to have a good rest.
The previous climb over the mountains and mountains was too physically exhausting, and no matter how good the rest and recuperation were, Han Cheng felt that there would be people whose bodies would not be able to bear it, and they would even fall behind.
Of course, the most important thing is that he can't stand it anymore, compared with these real primitives such as the second senior brother, he, a half-hung primitive who is a halfway monk, is still not barbaric enough in terms of physique.
Everyone began to move in the direction that Han Cheng pointed out, and when they walked, as before, there would be at least two people holding big shields to block Han Cheng's side at all times.
Earlier, there will be four people holding Changge, whipping the grass with Changge in their hands, and scaring the snakes.
During the process, there will be people holding gongs and hammers to beat them a few times.
Through these voices, I told the beasts that might exist around me that the gods of the Qingque tribe began to patrol, and the beasts should pay attention to avoid them, and don't bump into them without opening their eyes, which means that the king asked me to patrol the mountain.
Senior Brother Sha, as well as several other people in the team who used bows and arrows very well, were always ready with bows and arrows in their hands.
If you encounter a large beast that is alarmed such as a tiger, as long as the other party does not take the initiative to provoke them, they will be allowed to leave, and as for those small beasts that are alarmed, they will basically send an arrow or several arrows.
In this way, if you hunt with a bow while walking, you can often get a lot of prey, and when you are lucky, you can't eat all the prey you get in a day.
In this way, all the way to the beating, when they came from the bottom of the hill to the small river about two miles away, they were also hunted by Senior Brother Sha and some small beasts.
The creek was not too wide, about three meters long, and after coming here and choosing a resting place, the people, who had a lot of experience in setting up camps, began to act.
First trample down a piece of weeds with your foot, and cut off some that are difficult to trample with your foot.
Then nail a circle of wooden stakes around the perimeter, and wrap ropes around the wooden stakes to make a simple protective measure.
In the process, some people will go down the fish cages they carry with them into the water, and some people will dig pits with copper shovels in the selected camps to clear out a small firebreak for cooking.
As for Han Cheng, the Divine Son, he was accompanied by several people and looked around, trying to spot some plants that he knew that only grew in the south.
After some searching, he was disappointed, and the few plants he knew of in the south did not appear.
This made Han Cheng wonder if the plants he knew had not yet appeared in this world.
If that's not the case, why haven't you seen anything all the way here?
Or is it that the place where your tribe was originally located was too far north?
Returning to the makeshift camp with habitual disappointment, a fire had already risen, and even the water had boiled two clay pots.
Some of the food boiled in another clay pot had begun to give off some aroma, and a few chicken wings that had been roasted on top of thin sticks had already been roasted.
"Son of God."
The second senior brother who was squatting there for barbecue saw Han Cheng come back, and handed the grilled chicken wings to Han Cheng with a smile.
Chicken wings, except for the skin and bones, there is no meat at all, and the whole tribe likes to eat them, and the rest of the people are more keen to have a lot of meat chicken legs and chicken breasts.
Han Cheng smiled and nodded to the second senior brother, took the roasted chicken wings from the second senior brother's hand, took a bite and ate them slowly.
I have to say that the most suitable thing for foodies is food.
is like the current second senior brother.
After a long period of specializing in barbecue, and under the influence of Han Cheng, he began to keep improving, and the things that the second senior brother baked out were getting better and better.
For example, these roasted chicken wings that Han Cheng was holding in his hand, if they were sprinkled with some cumin and chili powder, it would be perfect.
The chicken wings carefully roasted by Senior Brother Yiyi, Han Cheng's mood that seemed more depressed because he didn't find those plants suddenly became much better.
Sure enough, food is a very magical thing, and it has a strong healing power for many bad emotions and the like.
For the time being, Han Cheng stopped thinking about anything like the south, plants, etc., and began to concentrate on dealing with the food in his hand.
While eating, watching the second senior brother barbecue there is also a good enjoyment, the kind that can make people forget their troubles.
In such a state of mind, half a roast chicken wing quietly went down.
Han Cheng, who was holding a chicken wing and gnawing on it, and his lips and the corners of his mouth were shiny, suddenly stopped what he was doing, and his eyes fell on the feet of the second senior brother who was sitting on a stone and roasting there in a professional way.
At the feet of the second senior brother, there was some soil that seemed to be relatively wet, which was excavated when the simple ignition pit was excavated not long ago.
has even been stepped on by the second senior brother.
Han Cheng had already seen the excavated soil, but he hadn't paid attention to it and automatically skipped it.
But now, he can't take his eyes off it.
After squatting there, holding chicken wings in his mouth and looking at them in a daze for a while, Han Cheng got up and jumped to the side of the second senior brother in three or two steps, squatting down and looking at the soil that had been turned up up closely.
While watching, I sped up the speed of nibbling on the chicken wings.
After a while, the rest of the meat had been hurriedly gnawed by him, and he casually threw it to a dog who couldn't wait, Han Chengcheng couldn't wait to reach out and grab some soil on the ground, put it in his hand and looked at it carefully for a while, and then showed an excited look on his face.
"Come a few people, come with me!"
Han Cheng threw away the soil in his hand, picked up a copper shovel that was placed not far away, and said to some of the people around him who had discovered his somewhat unusual behavior.
Everyone had been following Han Cheng for a long time, and they all knew a lot about Shenzi, and they knew by looking at their expressions that they had found something good.
Many people directly put down the work in their hands, stood up with their weapons, and prepared to follow Han Cheng.
"It's okay, it doesn't take so many people to do it, a few of you follow me, and the rest of you continue to do things."
Han Cheng named out a few people and asked them to act with him with weapons, and let the rest of them continue to do things.
The few people who were pointed out immediately had a feeling that they had received a sacred mission, and they held weapons to protect Han Cheng tightly, and they were ready to follow the Divine Son to witness the miracle with a serious and solemn face......
However, not long after they walked out of the temporary camp, they stopped walking, used the copper shovel in their hands to sweep away some of the weeds on the ground, and then stepped on the side of the copper shovel with their feet, and stepped the copper shovel into the soil about halfway, and pried it up with force.
The piece of soil that was shoveled up was detained by Han Cheng, and the moist soil was exposed to the air.
As Han Cheng expected, the soil was still purple!
"Let's go, go farther afield."
Han Cheng, whose health value was instantly full, suppressed the excitement in his heart and said to the people who followed him.
Then after walking about one or two hundred meters, I stopped and started digging again, and the soil was still purple......
"Hahaha......"
More than two miles away from the temporary camp, looking at the purple soil that had been turned over by himself, Han Cheng's face was getting stronger and stronger, and he finally couldn't help laughing.
The people who followed Han Cheng looked at the dirt that Han Cheng was holding on to the ground, and they all looked confused.
This time, although they followed Miko the whole time and didn't miss a single step, they still didn't find out what good things Miko had discovered.
If it was some plants or something, they would all be able to understand it, but now what Miko had dug up was just some dirt.
They had looked at the dirt carefully, over and over again, and had not seen any difference except that it was purple.
Could it be that this purple clay has a very special function, which can be used to make pottery just like the clay of the tribe?
Some people with more active thinking have begun to associate it with pottery, brick burning and the like.
There were also some people who didn't think of anything at all, and instead began to grin and giggle along with their Miko.
It doesn't matter what it does, anyway, if you can make Shenzi so happy, it must be a good thing that is useful to your tribe, and of course you are happy and happy with a good thing, and you can laugh with Shenzi, there is nothing wrong with it.
Of course, Han Cheng was happy, not because of what this purple soil could do, but because he remembered the great significance that these purple soils represented.
The red soil in the Lingnan region, the loess widely distributed in the Central Plains and Guanzhong region, the fertile black soil in the northeast region, and the purple soil concentrated in the Sichuan Basin are all the knowledge I learned in geography class that year.
Now, in the place where he and the others were, a large amount of purple soil had appeared, how could this not make Han Cheng excited?
Although purple soil, in addition to the concentrated distribution of the Sichuan Basin, is also distributed in other places, Han Cheng is very sure of one thing, that is, the vast majority of purple soil is distributed in the south, and it rarely exists in the north.
He and the others set out from the tribe and went all the way south for many days, and now they have encountered purple soil, which means that the place where they and the others are now is still southern, even if it is not the Sichuan Basin.
However, Han Cheng felt that the place where he and the others were now was the most likely to be the Sichuan Basin, because in their tribe, there were some giant pandas that were particularly cute.
These pandas are members of the bear tribe and have been abducted from bamboo forests that are not particularly far from where they live.
According to Han Cheng's understanding, the giant panda, the national pet of later generations, in ancient times, in addition to the country of abundance, was also distributed around the Sichuan Basin, such as the Qinling Mountains.
Since there are giant pandas in the place where his tribe used to be, it means that the location where his tribe used to be is not particularly far from the Sichuan Basin.
Now that he and the others have gone all the way to the south, they have crossed many mountains and mountains, and they have come to such a place with an extremely wide field of vision, and they have also found purple soil, so the place where they are now is known as the Sichuan Basin, which is known as the country of abundance.
If the place where he and the others are now located is the Sichuan Basin, then the location of his tribe should be the hometown of Qin Shi and the area of Guanzhong.
After probably knowing the location of himself and the tribe, Han Cheng suddenly had a feeling of clearing the fog and suddenly opening up.
All kinds of terrain and landforms have been slowly evolving, and from the perspective of the era in which I am now, many things in my entire era must be different from those of later generations.
For example, the Himalayas must not be as high as later generations.
But there are also many things that have already been set, and even if they change, they won't be too big.
So Han Cheng felt that his positioning should be not wrong.
Of course, it doesn't matter if it's the wrong positioning, if you say that this is the Sichuan Basin, and that the location of your tribe is Guanzhong, then it must be like this.
Just like the centimeters and catties he estimated to come out, they must not match the standards of later generations, but what does that have to do with it?
It can also provide a standard for its own tribe, and as long as this standard does not cause confusion, then it is correct in its own tribe.
In this time that can be called wild, there are many times, in the face of many things, you can really do whatever you want.
This is especially true when it comes to setting standards for various weights and measures, and naming many things.
"This is the South we're looking for! We found a place where we could use it to ward off the cold! ”
After being silly for a while, Han Cheng looked at everyone and said with a smile, announcing to everyone this news that was very happy for them.
After hearing Han Cheng say such words, all the people who came with him couldn't help but cheer loudly.
In order to find a safer place for the tribe to avoid the cold that may become more and more serious, they followed their gods, far away from the tribe, and walked for a long time in unfamiliar places, shuttling and suffering, and suffered a lot on the way.
Now, how could it not be happy that Miko had told them that he and the others had finally come to the south and found the place they were looking for?
The Sichuan Basin, strictly speaking, does belong to the south, whether it is the southeast or the southwest, with the south, it is the south.
The Qinling-Huai River, the dividing line between the north and the south, which was known to Han Cheng in later generations, is in the north of the Sichuan Basin.
Even if the climate is different now than it was in later generations, this dividing line still has a strong reference point.
In addition to these, there are a lot of lofty mountains and mountains to the north of the location where he and the others are now, and these are all existences that can effectively block the cold air from moving south.
So even if he hasn't spent the winter here, Han Cheng is basically sure that he can cope with the cold weather here.
Han Cheng and the others, after cheering here for a while, began to rush to the temporary camp.
Instead of returning the same way, he made a semi-circle, and on the way back, Han Cheng also excavated some places, and what he saw was still purple soil, which made his previous guess more convinced.
After returning to the camp, Han Cheng told everyone in the temporary camp about this, and after hearing this, everyone couldn't help but be overjoyed, happy that they had finally found such a good place for the tribe.
"Son of God, why do you know that this is the south when you see the purple soil?"
Not all people will follow silly music without seeking a solution, such as the stone that followed at this moment, which raised such a question.
Being asked by him like this, some people realized this problem, and they all looked at Han Cheng.
At this moment, Han Cheng had already washed his hands again, took the chicken wings that the second senior brother had reheated, and then gnawed them slowly, which was much more delicious than when he ate it before.
"This is because this purple soil basically exists in the south, and we have been going south for so long......"
Han Cheng slowly chewed the chicken wings in his hand while popularizing science on the stone and others.
Nowadays, Han Cheng adheres to the principle of explaining as much as possible if he can explain the questions raised by the people in the tribe, which will help the tribe develop better.
As for why he knew so much, the people in the tribe would not have any doubts about it, because he still had the invincible aura of a god son.
As a son of God, it is natural to be well-informed, and this is a matter of course.
After listening to Han Cheng's explanation, many people nodded clearly, understanding what was going on, and there was a feeling of increasing knowledge again.
Because they finally arrived in the south where they were looking for, the people in the tribe were very happy, and their hearts were put in their stomachs at once, so the next period of time was very leisurely.
They ate a good meal here with the food they could get their hands on, and soaked their feet in plenty of hot water.
Some people also go to some places further downstream to bathe in the river.
There are also many people who have sharpened the copper knives they carry with them on delicate grinding stones, and then shaved their faces against the water.
There are also people who are helping each other to clean up the hair on their heads that looks too long.
The women, on the other hand, used combs made of sheep's horns to comb their washed and scattered hair.
Because of the arrival of Han Cheng and their party, the place that originally seemed deserted suddenly became vibrant.
After these things were taken care of, it would be a while before it was dark, but many people were already sleeping in the tents that had been set up.
This continuous rush over the mountains and mountains has made them tired enough to choke one by one, and at this time what they have been trying to do has come to fruition, and of course they have to rest at this time.
Han Cheng lay inside the tent, and after thinking about what he might encounter next, he also closed his eyes and fell asleep.
The camp, which seemed noisy, soon became quiet.
