"Inside the Waterfall Cave?" Ye Qiong muttered before the soldier finished speaking. After nodding, he motioned for the other person to continue.
Ye Qiong's first thought was that there might be some progress in the black iron sand space on the left side of the waterfall cave.
According to the speed at which the soldiers were building the iron sand pontoon there, they should have reached a very deep area by now.
If there is anything discovered over there, Ye Qiong is still looking forward to it.
"Inside the cave where the weapons are stored, a stone door opened..." the young soldier continued.
Ye Qiong's eyes immediately widened a little, and at the same time he lost the idea of going to the ruins area.
"What did you find?" Ye Qiong asked next.
"Just some... some black-looking stones..."
Knowing in his heart that nothing could be asked, Ye Qiong stopped asking. He turned over and rode on the Snow Demon Wolf beside him. He rushed towards the water channel with two soldiers, and in a moment, he got in. The three figures disappeared.
When he reappeared, he had already arrived at the base of the waterfall.
After rushing out of the water channel, Ye Qiong looked towards the waterfall cave.
Now in the dense forest on the high slope on the left side of the waterfall, the soldiers have built a wooden step that leads all the way to the waterfall. Compared with climbing diagonally up in the dense forest, the effort spent on the step is much less. The most important thing is You can ride the Snow Demon Wolf to climb up.
The stairs alternate back and forth, with a certain arc, and the route is lengthened a lot.
Ye Qiong took two soldiers and climbed directly to the waterfall along the stairs.
Above the waterfall, the dike that was washed away by heavy rains last summer has been repaired a lot. It is estimated that it will be completely repaired and expanded in about two months.
Although compared with the dam base at the Naning Base on the east side of the Dinglong Mountains, the dam above the waterfall can only be regarded as a small river dam. It is no problem to block the melting snow on the peak.
As for whether the heavy rains in summer can be withstood, it is not certain now. Judging from last year's situation, the accumulated water flow of a second-level storm can easily destroy the dam.
If you want to withstand storms of Category 2 or above, you must continue to expand the dikes.
The vine that climbs down from the edge of the waterfall into the waterfall cave has now been expanded into several thick hemp ropes, with some wooden boards on it that can lend strength to the feet.
The dense forest next to the waterfall is supported by trees, so the ladder is easy to build, but it is more laborious. However, here at the waterfall, it is more troublesome to build a wooden hanging ladder in the waterfall cave and above the waterfall, but it is not too difficult. , the reason why we didn’t build it was because we were worried about summer storms.
The snowstorm last summer left Ye Qiong and the soldiers with lingering fears, so before the evacuation channel and waterproof embankment above the waterfall were completely completed, it made no sense to build a hanging ladder to the waterfall cave. After the embankment was washed away, it would be meaningless. Even a sturdy hanging ladder cannot withstand the power of floods.
When that thing impacted, the skyscrapers made of concrete and steel bars looked like paper, and the potential energy it carried was terrifying.
Following the vines reinforced with hemp ropes, we descended into the waterfall cave.
As soon as Ye Qiong entered, he saw Qing Zhi and Tang Li waiting at the entrance of the cave.
At the current waterfall base, Ye Qiong has completely handed over the responsibility to Qinglie. Some daily chores and plans are solved by Qinglie and the senior warriors of the tribe at the waterfall base.
After all, Qing Lie's strength is there. He used to be the leader of a large clan with ten thousand people. The current scale of the waterfall base is completely within his control, and the soldiers are very cooperative.
As for the Waterfall Cave, the person in charge is still Tang Li, who is the highest commander in the Waterfall Cave. If something unexpected happens to the Waterfall Base, Tang Li's biggest task is to continue to guard the Waterfall Cave and not participate in other battles.
Tang Li and the female warriors in Waterfall Cave had never participated in the large-scale battle between the wooden house base and the Red Flame Leopard.
As for Qing Zhi, in the Waterfall Cave, on the one hand, she can use her language translation talent. On the other hand, in the Waterfall Cave, there are female warriors on the right side, so it is very convenient for food and accommodation.
If Qingzhi is placed in the residential area below the waterfall base, it will be a bit awkward.
However, with the arrival of the last batch of 300 tribesmen, the current waterfall base has become like a small tribe. There are both men and women, and they are all adults now.
If we continue to develop for a few years, when this place becomes safer and a winding mountain road is built out from the peak between the waterfall base and the central tribe, we can continue to move more tribesmen here, and then children can also follow the adults. Come together.
The current unstable factor in the waterfall base is that only the Red Flame Leopard tribe remains. With the wooden house base and water channel as a buffer, the place is already very safe.
As for the beast tide and the mad crowd, the waterfall base may be safer than the central tribe.
Whether it is the waterfall cave or the water channel below, it is a restricted area for beasts and crazy people.
He smiled and said hello to Qing Zhi and Tang Li who were waiting at the door.
After staying in the Waterfall Cave for so long, Tang Li doesn't feel tired at all. There is room and board inside. In order to pass the time, some female warriors also invented some small games to entertain themselves during their free time while transcribing and translating things. .
Several female warriors from the original tribe are very experienced in those small games. Ye Qiong had already popularized them to the tribe when he was a child.
For example, Go seems to be simple, but in fact it has endless variations.
It's just that the gameplay is different from traditional Go, it's somewhere between Gobang and Go.
Draw a grid on the ground and get two small stones of different colors to start the game.
The female warriors from various tribes also brought some traditional games of their own tribes. What Ye Qiong did not expect at all was that in the waterfall cave, the entertainment games on the ground were developing well.
When there are more people together, you can't be idle or work all the time. You will inevitably come up with something that can entertain you, relax, and improve your brain power.
Therefore, Ye Qiong has never rejected this point. Instead, he encourages it. If he has time, he would like to get some wood and carve a box of chess.
This kind of thing is very helpful for the intellectual development of children and for preventing the intellectual disability of some elders in the tribe.
After saying hello, a few people walked towards the waterfall cave on the right side together with the female warrior in the waterfall cave.
The outside light gradually disappeared, and the wooden barrel grease lamp inside the cave became a new light source.
