Wu Hui started making salt at the beach.
Making salt is actually not difficult at all, just boil the seawater dry. Making refined salt requires an additional purification step, and making salt water is more troublesome.
Now that Wang Xiaodie has chosen the water purifier, it suddenly becomes much simpler. It is thought that the water purifier will automatically separate the impurities in seawater and leave pure water.
These impurities are actually coarse salt.
The purification process has been mentioned in the Desert Island chapter, so I won’t go into details here. While fussing about this, Wu Hui also picked up some garbage at the beach, including water bottles and rags.
I also found an iron box.
Starting a fire in the rain forest has always been a waste of time, that is, Wu Hui had the chess piece of the Witch King's successor to set fire to avoid torture.
But others are different. The Ratmen who have mastered the skill of drilling wood to make fire should need this.
Wu Hui wants to make carbon cloth. That's a very flammable material. Put a piece of cloth into the iron box, cover it, poke a small hole, and then burn it for a while.
Due to the lack of air, although the cloth will burn, it will not burn completely. A black flake will be left behind. It is extremely flammable and can catch fire with just a little spark. Make it a little more, and the Skaven will definitely like it. Of course, making charcoal is also done in a similar way.
Salt, carbon cloth, spice powder. Use these three items to trade with the Skaven to gain favor. There are many traps laid out in the forest. If the animals caught every day are not finished, they are given to the frogmen.
But what exactly do tree people like? If it really doesn't work, just kill them. They can't communicate anyway.
The deal between Wu Hui and the Ratman Frogman will take some time. He didn't find any iron pot or anything like that at the beach today, so he was quite disappointed. Otherwise, there are salt, animal oil and spices. Makes a nice dinner. Now I still have to make soup.
In addition to the meat there are grains grown by the ratfolk. Under Wu Hui's command, Wang Xiaodie made a steamer out of bamboo and spider silk. You can make food without drinking porridge.
Add fruits and vegetables. This was quite a hearty meal.
"Very good." Wang Xiaodie said that following Wu Hui, no matter what the circumstances, he could quickly get into a well-off position: "How will you create a god next?"
"Creating gods is just a metaphor. What we have to do is to guide the development of these tribes and gain their support." Wu Hui said: "So, we must first trade with them and let the smart people among them realize the use of my things. . Then they are motivated to learn.”
"After I promote writing and teach them to refine metal, I will naturally become their leader."
Wang Xiaodie is weaving with bamboo strips in her hands. She was quite clever with her hands and got herself and Wu Hui a hat. It rains a lot in the rainforest now. Although it's okay to get wet occasionally, it's better to block it so you don't get sick easily.
Getting sick in the rainforest is troublesome. Although Wu Hui has also studied some herbal medicines these days, this primitive technology can only cure minor illnesses.
After getting the refined salt, we came to the rat tribe.
The Rat People are a farming society, unlike the Frog People who have something for everyone to eat. The concept of private ownership has been formed. Wu Hui conducted transactions and exchanges with the chiefs and priests of their tribes, and in a few days he had mastered a lot of vocabulary.
Consider that there are other players active in the game. It's impossible for him to devote dozens of days to a tribe. Definitely still going to explore the surrounding area.
The two of them together need at least twelve tribal totems. Only one has been obtained so far, and there are only four known around. Obviously not enough. The map on the Rat Man's side is obviously wider than the Frog Man's. After today's transaction, Wu Hui plans to visit the other tribes recorded by the Rat Man.
There are dinosaurs, pig-headed people, swamp murlocs, lake murlocs, and tree rats. It has to be said that the exploration area of the River Rat Tribe is indeed much greater than that of the Poison Dart Frog Tribe.
It is indeed a tribe that has stepped into the post-Stone Age. Wu Hui estimated that he had no chance of winning if he attacked the tribe head-on. After all, the River Rat tribe has a combat capability equivalent to a level 6 player and several combat capabilities equivalent to a level 5 player. The only way to fight is to rely on guerrilla warfare. This efficiency may not be higher than peaceful negotiation.
After obtaining the dwarf totem, I have accumulated a lot of seal beasts in recent days. If it were a frontal attack on the frogman tribe, that would be fine.
But the frogman tribe can solve the problem through negotiation. So Wu Hui planned to keep these troops to deal with the insect monster tribe.
"Someone got there first." Under the messy tree house, Wu Hui confirmed that there had been a fierce battle in the tree rat tribe: "This trace... looks familiar."
He had fought side by side with Zhang Dingyang more than once and was very familiar with this guy's attack marks. In addition, the two of them also met in the ocean chapter last time.
So it was normal to see Zhang Dingyang this time.
"If Zhang Dingyang...well." Wang Xiaodie: "If we cooperate with him, won't we have to find eighteen totems?"
It sounds like a very long process.
Wu Hui: "Hmm... So this game is not a game that is particularly suitable for cooperation. It is a game mainly based on confrontation."
But I think there are more tribes in this rainforest than we think. After all, Wang Xiaodie couldn't see the edge of the rainforest after flying into the sky. The density of tribes seen so far is not small.
Wu Hui quickly found the second tribe, and this tribe was a bit remarkable.
Velociraptor Tribe.
Pre-Bronze Age levels.
A group of dinosaurs patrolled the jungle with metal weapons. These guys have much more cultivated land than the River Rat tribe. Moreover, only a small amount of the food cultivated is eaten by themselves, and most of it is used to raise animals.
Carnivorous tribes consume a lot of resources. Usually they can only maintain the level of fishing and hunting.
The development of this tribe depends entirely on its ability to smelt metal. And the combat power is really off the charts, with average level 4 players, and several level 5 and 6 players taking the lead. That day, Zhang Dingyang and three others came here to inquire and decisively chose to retreat.
For a tribe like this, whether it is through peaceful negotiation to obtain totems, or a frontal attack to obtain totems. They are all quite difficult and will not be considered for now.
Of course, Wu Hui still tried to have some exchanges and exchanged two bags of salt for a bronze pot.
The earliest metal used by most ancient civilizations was bronze. Because the smelting difficulty of this metal is relatively low. Wu Hui remembered that people who use bronzes as kitchen utensils for a long time can easily get sick...but people in primitive societies should not be qualified to pay attention to this.
It won't take long for the two of them to talk, so it's okay. It usually doesn't matter if you don't eat it for a few years.
"This tribe should often engage in trading. In other words, trading is relatively common in this jungle." Wu Hui fell into deep thought: "I guess they are about to develop slavery."
Slavery between different species should be more brutal. But again, the life and death of the NPC has nothing to do with Wu Hui.
