Under the slight drizzle, Li Hongshen and his party stopped in front of a gate leading to the city. Looking at the destination city in front of him, Li Hongshen sighed a lot. This road is really difficult. Sometimes he wants to give up, but With the help of the soldiers, they still came here.
In the team, the number of fighters dropped sharply to 720, and the pets also had many scars on their bodies. It seemed that they had gone through several fierce battles.
There was even a small scar on the top of Li Hongshen's head. That time he almost succeeded in a sneak attack and fell into the endless wilderness. Fortunately, he dodged in time and saved himself from danger in the end. Otherwise, he would not have stood here.
After passing through the Zisong Mountain tiger group, they passed through the territories of many senior brothers and sisters, but even so, not all the territories of senior brothers and sisters could be seamlessly connected.
Especially at the back, the geographical location becomes wider, and the wilderness area between the Jieyin city and the Jieyin city becomes larger. The herds of beasts living in the wilderness are not polite to Li Hongshen and others at all.
During this period, there were herds of beasts that attacked Li Hongshen and others, some fierce beasts that Li Hongshen and others provoked for various reasons, and some herds of beasts that collided head-on due to some accidents, but Li Hongshen and others finally overcame these difficulties.
As for the herds of beasts, some were slaughtered on the spot, some were scattered and fled away, and some were taken into the territory to improve the blood of the herders in the territory and make the meat in the territory more nutritious and delicious.
The original equipment of the soldiers was also somewhat damaged, some of them didn't even have shields at all, and some of the leather armor on their bodies had become holes.
The original leather boots were also changed, becoming leather shoes, and the calves were wrapped with linen cloth a few times, and then inserted into spirit wood pieces for support.
These pieces of spirit wood were the branches that Li Hongshen sawed from the spirit-gathering tree with great pains, and there were inscriptions inscribed on them by Mawu, which had the effects of gathering spirits, speeding up, reducing weight, and returning strength.
Among them, the weight-loss and power-returning shamanism were harvested after they conquered a strong indigenous tribe. At that time, the shamanism in this tribe had been lost for many years, but the inheritance in the tribe was still there, allowing Li Hongshen and others to gain a lot Information about Aboriginal spellcasters.
As for the current method, Li Hongshen came up with it on the way. Since the engraving with leather boots is too complicated, and the loss rate is a bit high, so referring to the style of a famous Long March army in the previous life, it was changed to the current simple model. But no matter the style is earthy or not, the most important thing is the outstanding effect.
Relying on such equipment and the guidance of the old Youtiao Mawu, Li Hongshen and others finally arrived at the destination just before the rainy season began.
"go in!"
Li Hongshen led the team into the No. 486 reception city. Although the layout is the same here, the open space in the city is not very empty.
There are more than a dozen booths set up here. The exterior design has obviously been refined, and the name of the tribe is written on it in common language.
Li Hongshen looked at these exquisite sheds and found that there was no one inside, but he was not surprised.
Because according to the usual practice, after entering the [-]-mile mountain, the lords usually make small deals every five years, and big deals once every ten years. This year happens to be a small year for deals, so they should have finished the deal.
There is no one in the booth here now, but from the layout and internal structure of the booth, it should be possible to tell what kind of tribe it is, what kind of status it is in here, and even what kind of items they sell.
For example, at the booth closest to Li Hongshen, there was a clan flag on the outside with the word "purity" written on it, and the interior layout was relatively shelf-oriented.
There is also a prototype groove on the load-bearing plate of the shelf for locking, which can be roughly regarded as placing clay pots and barrels, because there should be few people selling containers directly here, and there should be no shortage in everyone’s territorial space Vessels for holding things.
So sugar, salt, tea, wine, honey, etc., these resources that need to be stored in bottles and jars, may be the commodities sold by this shed.
Then he saw that not far from this hut, there was a salt signboard hanging under the banner of another clan named Shangji tribe, so the possibility of the pure tribe selling salt could be roughly ruled out. There is a high probability that the tribe sells sugar, wine, honey and other materials.
Then Li Hongshen recorded three words in his small notebook, "pure sugar", and finally he drew a circle on the sugar word, proving that this was only his personal speculation, not sure, it was just a sign.
In addition to Pure Sugar and Shangji Salt, he also saw another prominent tribe named Xiaoling. There were obvious traces of dust in that tribe, and there were many weapon racks. It was obviously another tribe with mineral resources lord.
After that, there is the most conspicuous big shed here, with the word Ye hanging on the outside, and it is also a tribe with a single word. It seems that the leader here just doesn't know what resources this senior brother or sister has.
Because the booth of the Ye tribe was enclosed by wooden boards, it was not easy for Li Hongshen to break in, so he could only simply wait and see outside.
After Li Hongshen looked around these shed booths, he added the words Yemeng, Xiaoling Mine, and Xueshangzhi to his notebook, and recorded the name of the tribe in a simple and clear way, plus his guessed material supply.
After reviewing the information, Li Hongshen had a certain idea of the lords he was about to get along with, and then came to the center of the city, registered his own information, and chose his favorite items from the several reward options given by the school. , finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The stone in his heart finally fell to the ground, and his position took root here. Even if he was swept out of the endless wilderness by the beast tide, he would not be afraid. He would come here next time, and he would be another hero.
But here, the guide city no longer divides any resource blueprints into areas, but directly asks Li Hongshen to go to the wilderness area to open up hunting grounds and camps by himself. Li Hongshen will not receive any preferential treatment just because he is a freshman.
But Li Hongshen didn't have any fear. He already knew that there were such rules. After a brief rest, Li Hongshen led the team to set off from the city again.
But this time it was Mawu who took the lead, and what they were going to was the original ancestral land of Mawu. The Lingzhu tribe at that time started from here and developed slowly. The reason for rushing here is because it is related to his development plan.
Chapter 79 New Camp
There was drizzling rain in the sky, which was the prelude to the approaching rainstorm. After Li Hongshen and his party came out of the receiving city, they quickly marched in the wilderness.
Their goal is behind the leading city, close to the middle of the [-]-mile mountain and the deep boundary line, where the Lingzhu tribe started.
Simply because he was walking in the rain, his own smell was reduced to the lowest level, and he was not attacked by a herd of beasts on this road.
Ma Wu held a leather map in his hand, which looked a little old, but it could be seen from the flowing aura that it was a guide map made of the inner skin of a second-level desolate beast.
The guide map is a manifestation of Wuwen technology, which can display the position and distance of the holder and the target location on the map.
According to Ma Wu's specific technical analysis, Li Hongshen roughly understood the working principle of the guidance map.
Probably, first draw a range block with spirit ink on the animal skin that can carry energy. Inside the range block is a map with a radius of ten to thirty miles centered on the target location.
Then draw a sign of the southeast and northwest, and then depict the shamanism on the cortex map, which echoes with the shamanism in the target location.
When the hand is close to the target location within a certain range, it can be positioned according to the bearing and distance of the holder from the target location, and then fed back to the map to guide the holder to the target location.
To explain more specifically, it is to use the shamanism of the target location as the final direction of the compass pointer, and then confirm the distance between the two according to the echo speed of the shamanism in the map and the target location.
This is the Wuwen technology widely circulated among the aborigines in the endless wilderness. The aborigines are not like tribes with lords.
Ordinary citizens in the lord's space generally don't need to go out of the territory to explore the endless wilderness, but the warriors can naturally perceive the location of the altar after awakening through the lord's altar.
To be more precise, it is to perceive the heart of the lord, because they are linked to the lord through the heart of the lord, and contribute a little of their strength, so they can always find their way home when they explore in the wilderness.
Although this guide map looks very high-end, Ma Wu has never used it. He has never been out of the tribe before, and has been learning how to become a qualified witch with his teacher.
According to Ma Wu, there were originally two earth witches and twelve second-tier warriors in their tribe, who hunted many wild beasts. They have existed in the wilderness for more than a thousand years, and they are a very powerful indigenous tribe.
But he himself has never been to the ancestral land. He was born in the depths of a hundred thousand miles of mountains, and within a few decades the tribe was promoted, and then he was besieged by the lord when he migrated.
And he had no chance to get here after getting the map from his teacher. He was being hunted down by many lords at that time, so he could only lead his tribe through multiple wildernesses.
Try to avoid encountering the lord, and after thousands of years of changes, there are many lords near the ancestral land, so he didn't dare to force it here.
……
The rain in the sky had turned into pouring rain. After three days of rapid march, Li Hongshen and his party, led by Ma Wu, came to the bottom of a cliff.
It is very magical here. A willow tree grows out of the cliff. The wicker is unusually thick and long. It can hang from the cliff to the ground, nearly 300 meters.
These willows are very tough, and it seems that Li Hongshen and others can't cut them off with a knife in the experiment, and only splash some juice.
After seeing the willow tree, Ma Wu turned to Li Hongshen and said,
"We're here. I'll take Li Tianhua up to have a look and find the location. After confirming the situation, I'll notify you guys to come up."
Now Li Tianhua has been used as a bodyguard by Li Hongshen, leading a team of people to protect the caster, so usually Li Tianhua will follow Ma Wu, and it is the same this time.
After Ma Wu finished speaking, he tied his gray beard and hair together, then wrapped it around his neck a few times, and then climbed up with his old arms and legs, and he couldn't see it at all. When he comes out, he is usually an old man who urinates frequently and urgently.
