Carrying the three bottles of flame salt in his pocket, Ye Qiong returned to the entrance of the small passage. Looking at Daidai who pressed his big head on the fallen rock, Ye Qiong waved his hand towards Daidai, indicating that Daidai could take care of him for the time being. This small passage can be used as a place to live, and it is no problem to keep out the wind and rain. I will ask the soldiers to bring some hay, and then I can sleep happily.
However, it is destined to be unable to rest well these days. It does not mean that it needs to jump down and fight those monster sea monsters with eyes. Ye Qiong's current plan is to ride on it if there is no problem with the defense of these Tiandiba bases. Silently, look at the left and right sides of the dike base and the diagonal tops of the V-shaped cliffs on both sides.
Ye Qiong always felt that the V-shaped cliff was a bit too unusual. Behind the embankment, the passage below with a width of three kilometers was unlikely to be naturally formed.
But if it was really man-made, it would be a bit scary to have such a large amount of work done directly in the southeast corner of the Dinglong Mountains.
Foolish Old Man Moved Mountains conveys a spirit. In fact, he did not move much of the mountain until his death. The size of that passage is really no smaller than a big mountain, and the amount of work is definitely much larger than that of the water passage to the west.
What kind of tribe, or what kind of civilization, could do such a thing?
Why did they go to great lengths to create such a passage?
To ward off sea monsters?
It definitely makes no sense. After all, with the 10,000-meter peak of the Dinglong Mountains as a barrier, it is impossible for those strange sea beasts with eyes to turn over from above. Therefore, the establishment of the V-shaped passage must have other purposes.
And those sea beasts were unexpected, or they only appeared many years after digging through the mountain.
As for what is being dug here, Ye Qiong needs to continue to explore. Judging from the clues Ye Qiong currently has, there is no way to deduce it.
We must find the V-shaped passage that was dug through and the traces left by the civilized tribe that established this place.
Ye Qiong's current speculation is that this dike was built later to resist those sea monsters, and the V-shaped passage is probably not from the same era.
After settling Dadai in the small passage, Ye Qiong returned to the embankment and continued to stand in front of the embankment wall and look at it for a while.
Above the embankment, traces of expansion and renovation can be seen in many places. Compared with the area below the embankment, it is much better maintained.
After the stars fell under the mountains, the sky gradually darkened, and lights lit up on the embankment.
Like the Ye Qiong Tribe, the Na Ning Tribe uses grease lamps extracted from the flesh of Warcraft. This thing does not require any craftsmanship. It only requires boiling the fatty Warcraft meat in water. It won't be long before the grease comes out on its own.
The density of grease is lighter than water, so at high temperatures, it will float directly on boiling water. Just shake the spoon out. After the grease cools, it will solidify automatically. At this time, as long as there is a wick, the grease can be kept Burned.
The purely natural and pollution-free grease lamp, except for its poor brightness, is really useful. In times of crisis, it can even save lives. As a natural organic substance, without this thing, when I was in the jute tribe, it would still be Xiao Huang Ling, who has the physique of a baby, is capable of surviving.
The grease lamp that Na Ning planted at the dike base really made Ye Qiong curious. They seemed to have added something in it to make the grease lamp shine brighter when it burned.
Grease lamps have been lit on the embankment, not many. The purpose is not to illuminate the bottom, but to facilitate the soldiers of the Na Ning tribe to move on it.
Now inside the V-shaped passage, the giant buildings occupied by the eyeless sea monsters have begun to become dim and blurry.
Ye Qiong was quite curious, what would they do at night?
What kind of defense should be carried out...
Shoot out lantern arrows, or use some other method to prevent attacks from the eyed monster sea monsters.
Not long after, some warriors from the Naning tribe began to walk down one after another. It seemed that it was time for dinner. They seemed to be facing the attack of the eyeless sea monster, and they did not feel as nervous as they imagined. Under the defense of the dike, daily defense has been regarded as work.
Na Ning also came to the embankment. After finding Ye Qiong, she invited Ye Qiong to come down for dinner.
During dinner, Na Ning answered Ye Qiong's doubts about the strategy on the dam side when facing the attack of the eyed monster sea monster at night.
That is……
in spite of!
On top of the dam, there are soldiers on duty at night. All they have to do is splash some water on the dike wall below from time to time!
As long as the embankment is smooth towards the V-shaped channel, there is no need to worry about the eyed sea monster attacking at night.
The only way they can climb up is to stack up Arhats, so the warriors of the Na Ning tribe will simply ignore a small-scale attack. For a large-scale attack, all the soldiers need to do is to gather together to prevent them from stacking up Arhats. .
The method is also very simple. Faced with the nighttime behavior of the eyed monsters, what the soldiers have to do is not to shoot arrows, but to splash water...
But the water at this time is no longer cold water, but boiling water in the pot!
There are many wooden carts placed on the embankment, and in the middle of the wooden cart is a large iron pot with a diameter of about two meters. The pot is filled with water. When night falls, under these iron pots, there is a fire. While the warriors can keep warm, they can also control the water in the pot at a suitable temperature, which is not too high. It can also ensure that when the eyed monster sea monster stacks up with the arhat, it can be boiled directly in a short time. Around eighty degrees.
The wooden cart can be moved. At night, as long as the soldiers see the eyeless monster stacking Arhats somewhere, they can just push the wooden cart over and fall down.
The boiling water cannot directly kill the monster-eyed sea beasts below, but it has a miraculous effect on their behavior of stacking Arhats.
When those sea monsters with eyes pile up, what appears is a triangle. At this time, as long as a few buckets of boiling water are poured down, the damage that can be caused is very large. Arrows cannot do anything to the sea monsters below. substantial harm.
But running water is different. The scalding boiling water can flow directly downwards. Although the lower you go, the lower the temperature is. But as long as the boiling water from above is poured continuously, the sea monsters at the top can be centered. Gradually spreading downwards.
At night, after the boiling water cools down, it can also cause secondary damage to those monster sea monsters with eyes. Under low temperatures, it will adhere to the skin and turn directly into ice in a short time.
After dinner, Ye Qiong went for a walk on the embankment again. After nightfall, he went to sleep in the living area arranged by Na Ning for himself and the soldiers.
Three days later...
"boom!"
It was noon, and the eyed monster sea beast launched its fifth attack after Ye Qiong and the soldiers came over.
Three hundred meters away from the embankment, a brand new wooden house was built. A deafening explosion sounded from an open space next to the small wooden house.
The sound soared into the sky. Above the dike base, both the warriors from the Na Ning Tribe and the Ye Qiong Tribe immediately looked back. Even the eyed monster sea beasts under the dike were stunned. , the overall pace of the offense has been reduced.
A few soldiers with strong curiosity walked to this side of the embankment, looked in the direction of the sound, and immediately saw the wooden house under the embankment...
There was a puff of green smoke!
