Looking at the exposed black blocks on the wall of the V-shaped passage, Ye Qiong was now certain that those black blocks that fell from high altitude were building materials.
The ones that fell are not on the wall of the V-shaped passage. If you look up now, you can see that the highest point on the right side of the V-shaped passage is still flat, but it is parallel to the left side. An abnormality occurred in the area.
To put it simply, it is a V-shaped passage. When viewed from a horizontal perspective, it is generally grayish-white, while the section that emerges from the wall on the right is grayish-brown, and now half of the giant building is buried. The ruins fell from the areas that emerged.
After riding on Daidai and returning to the giant building, Ye Qiong looked towards the end of the V-shaped passage. The distance was still very far. It was conservatively estimated to be more than ten kilometers away. Walking such a long distance was naturally unrealistic. , within a dozen kilometers of passage, there are a total of nine giant buildings like this...
Ye Qiong jumped off Dudu's back and continued to lead the soldiers towards the second giant building.
Today's task is to look at the two closest ones to the dike base. Ye Qiong is not in a hurry to go to the end of the V-shaped passage to look at the sea. He needs to wait for the warriors of the Na Ning tribe to continue cleaning up the Sea Beast Mountain. corpse.
At this moment, it is not easy to climb out from the trumpet-shaped passage that was just dug out with the foot strength of the Snow Demon Wolf. If you really want to get out, you can, but you will have to use human strength. Like hemp rope or something.
There is no need to go to such trouble, and if you go too far on foot, if those sea monsters suddenly appear again, it will be difficult to come back. There are many visual blind spots behind those giant buildings, plus those It’s hard to tell whether there are sea monsters hiding inside the giant building at the moment.
Soon, the small team arrived at the second giant building and walked inside.
…
In the central area of Ye Qiong tribe, at the gate of the blacksmith shop.
The sky was clear and there were many tribesmen gathered around the gate.
Come and watch the fun...
For the tribe, this kind of scene is actually rare. As the population base of the tribe gradually increases, and the comprehensive strength steadily improves step by step, the life of the tribesmen in the central tribe in winter has gradually become worse. Lively and enriched.
From the north of the tribe, a steady stream of food is continuously delivered back every day. To the east of the tribe, coal and oil extracted by the eyeless monsters are also constantly transported to the central tribe.
As for the southern gate, several carts of lumber will be delivered back every few days.
It is stable and peaceful. Although it is not busy at the moment, the panic of the tribesmen living in the central tribe about winter has been reduced a lot.
At this point in time, it seems that half of winter has passed. If we still want to be like the small tribes we used to be, from now on, many people will start to be short of food. The tribes must make some food distribution adjustments. Try to ensure the food supply for the tribal warriors as much as possible. As for the tribesmen, it depends on how long the food lasts. It may be two meals a day, or one meal a day, or even...
A meal for a few days!
But now, the tribesmen can clearly feel that life is different. In the tribe, there is no need to worry about food problems in the past two years.
As the saying goes, food, clothing, and rain are all that matters, and the bustle has returned to bustle, and there are more troublesome things. Liang Yi and Yang Dingtian's work in the tribe is increasing day by day, and they need to deal with many things every day.
The good thing is that, on the whole, the tribe is developing steadily. As long as those small problems don't accumulate, they won't be a problem. The population flow will speed up the tribe's population base.
At the gate of the bustling blacksmith shop, today's protagonist is not Kuang Baichi, nor is it the powerful weapons that Kuang Baichi's apprentices have built.
The protagonist is not a human being, but a big guy. In the eyes of the tribe, he is a combination of iron and wood.
It has a flat bed-like bed, with the strange-shaped iron bump on top, and two strange wheels on the bottom.
Between the wooden boards, the wheels and the iron knots on them, there are many carefully polished animal skins connected to some...
This simple steam engine has been placed in the blacksmith shop for a long time. Kuang Baichi has been busy leading his apprentices to make giant crossbows and has no time to study this thing in detail. As for Ye Qiong, there are even more things to do. So after the mold was made, it was temporarily placed in the blacksmith shop.
Now with the development of tribes and blacksmith shops, giant crossbows and repeating crossbows have become a large-scale fixed industry chain, which can be left to the apprentices.
When Kuang Baichi was free, he became very interested in the big iron lump placed here by Ye Qiong.
In addition to Kuang Baichi, those who were interested in it were also several half-grown children. Kuang Baichi got help from them when he was tinkering. Children obviously have some innate advantages in terms of hands-on ability.
After mutual cooperation, finally...
This big iron lump started to move!
As the coal below began to burn, the water vapor in the big iron lump was squeezed and released. The gears and bearings still started to rotate, and the animal skin straps directly connected the upper bearing gears and the lower wooden wheels.
“哃…哃…哃哃…”
There were waves of dull roaring sounds coming from the inner cavity of the big iron lump.
As this very strange thing in the eyes of the central tribe began to move, an era came.
Steam engine!
Its speed is actually not fast, probably slightly faster than the walking speed of an adult. It doesn't feel very powerful now, but what makes people excited is that it keeps moving...
In order to prevent it from running too far, a young boy who participated in the research tied it directly to a big tree with a long hemp rope. When tying the hemp rope, it could be left He moved a certain distance, leaving a large gap between the hemp rope and the big tree, so that he could draw a circle around the big tree.
Therefore, the scene that the people of the central tribe see now is like the feeling of a donkey pulling a mill. This first-generation steam engine can also be said to be the first-generation car, the most primitive car, just like this on a piece of hemp rope. Under the influence, a circle was drawn around the big tree!
This feeling is that as long as the coal on it doesn't burn out and there is water in the iron lump, it can keep spinning like this!
The first generation has been produced, and the only thing left is to let it evolve and grow on its own.
Just like organic organisms, as long as they continue to change, follow the natural law of natural selection, leave the advantages to remove the chaff, and remove or gradually reduce the defects, then this first generation of the most primitive steam car will become more and more sophisticated. As the speed gets faster and faster, its energy will also change from the initial burning of coal to liquid petroleum or combustible compressed gas, and then slowly continue to develop into electrical energy, and even...
nuclear energy!
What is certain is that as long as human civilization continues, technology will one day be able to develop to this level. It is just not certain when this time will come and whether humans want it to speed up or slow down.
Burning, explosion, and annihilation, if not controlled, it will be a road of no return!
In the lively crowd, a petite figure suddenly emerged from the crowd. The palm-sized body was not eye-catching. Under the gaze of the tribe, the petite figure covered in snow-white jumped directly onto the steam wooden car...
