Chapter 4 Ambition

Village Chief Zig's words also made Zhang Tie ponder. Based on the conclusions just now, the beast tide in the ice and snow wasteland this time is indeed too weird. No wonder the wilderness guardians from the Guardian God Sect were recruited.

"Did the Wilderness Guardian find anything?"

"I don't know. That person just stayed in Kurgan Village for one night. What he wanted to know was what I just said. After learning about these situations, that person left!" Having said that, Qi Village Chief Ge seemed to think of something, "By the way, that person has a pet, which is a big black giant eagle. When I sent him out of the village, that giant eagle fell from the sky. Startled me.

The strange beast tide, the guardian of the wilderness of the guardian god sect who came here with a giant black eagle to investigate the truth, after stringing these contents together, for some reason, what appeared in Zhang Tie's mind was not other contents, but It was the iron-billed ibises that frantically attacked the airship he encountered in the air on the way to Huaiyuan County by airship. Because of the attacks of those iron-billed ibises, many air traffic routes on the Weiyi subcontinent have been greatly affected. Some are even in danger of being cut off.

Is there any connection between this?

Zhang Tie almost instinctively smelled a hint of danger, but this incident has no negative impact on him for the time being. After Zhang Tie put a label of attention in his heart, he let it go.

For Zhang Tie at this time, no matter what will happen in the future, the most important thing is to improve his own strength.

Today's dinner was very sumptuous, and it was one of the rare delicacies that Zhang Tie had tasted during this period, especially the seabuckthorn wine brewed in the village, the taste was absolutely unforgettable.

The process of self-brewed seabuckthorn wine in Kurgan Village is very simple. It is to wash and crush the picked seabuckthorns, then mix them with sugar and put them in wooden barrels for fermentation, which is similar to the fermentation process of wine. Village Chief Zig It is said that almost everyone in the ice and snow wasteland can brew seabuckthorn wine, and everyone grew up drinking seabuckthorn wine. Seabuckthorn wine not only tastes very good, but also people who drink it often have a very good health and almost no illness.

If it was before, Zhang Tie would be surprised, but at this time, Zhang Tie is very clear that the process of brewing seabuckthorn wine by the aborigines on the ice and snow wasteland is actually the fermentation process of enzymes. Although the people here may not know about enzymes What is it? But the wisdom condensed in life made them instinctively find a way to easily obtain a large amount of enzymes in the ice and snow wasteland.

People here seem to be inseparable from seabuckthorn. Seabuckthorn tea, seabuckthorn wine, seabuckthorn oil, and seabuckthorn branches that are folded down in autumn and used as firewood for winter are all closely related to the lives of people here.

Even the seabuckthorn planted outside the village has become a barrier for the village. The neat seabuckthorn trees are like rows of guards. Because of these seabuckthorn trees, even wild animals cannot approach the village unscrupulously from all directions. And it must be approached through some passages reserved by people, which greatly increases the probability of those dangerous large beasts being discovered when they approach the village.

In addition, seabuckthorn also has the ability to fertilize the soil. Those originally barren land, as long as seabuckthorn is planted for a few years, some plants with tenacious vitality such as potatoes can be planted to provide food for people. Various villages on the ice and snow wasteland often interplant wheat in the seabuckthorn forest, and the harvest is very good.

It can be said that if there is no seabuckthorn, people on the entire ice and snow wasteland may not be able to survive as they are now. Everyone's living conditions and quality of life will be affected by this plant.

It's really because this kind of plant is so important to people on the ice and snow wasteland.

It is this kind of seabuckthorn that can be seen everywhere, which has already become the most important guarantee for the people here to survive in the ice and snow wasteland. Seabuckthorn is not only a source of food for people, its fruits and leaves are not only convenient for storage, but also It can be eaten, and it is the main energy fuel, allowing people to survive the long winter here. It is also the most important cash crop, responsible for exporting gold coins for the people here, and finally taking into account the role of land reclamation and fertile soil, constantly expanding the people here. It is hard to imagine how people would live without seabuckthorn in the ice and snow wasteland.

While eating and drinking with Zhang Tie, Village Chief Zig introduced the functions of seabuckthorn. After hearing those words, Zhang Tie suddenly had an idea in his mind. Would it be more magical to complete a mutation evolution?

As soon as this idea appeared in Zhang Tie's mind, Zhang Tie felt a little excited. The sense of accomplishment of creating a species by himself really made people feel very refreshed. Zhang Tie was thinking about the possibility of creating a function When he was working with various new species of seabuckthorn with more powerful effects, suddenly, a thought flashed across his mind and hit him like lightning. Zhang Tie's body, who was eating, suddenly froze.

What if the entire ice and snow wasteland is filled with new seabuckthorn species created by oneself, and the residents here have become accustomed to the new seabuckthorn to bring them a better life and become dependent on it? ?

Zhang Tie's body trembled slightly, and he thought of some content he had seen in the general history of the human race that he had learned in Huaiyuan Hall.

Before the cataclysm, the demons and their agents and lackeys in the human race were using technological means to control the seeds of food on this planet, and then control human agriculture and food production without a trace. After the food and agricultural production of human beings are eliminated, human beings are actually under the rule of the demons and their agents and lackeys in the human race.

The food seeds provided by the demons to human beings are inherently poisonous. The toxins in those seeds are not ordinary chemical toxins, but more terrifying genetic viruses. The food grown from those seeds carries those genetic viruses, so it can regulate Human genes and DNA make human beings short-lived, sickly, weak, mentally retarded, and even lose their ability to reproduce. The food seeds provided by the demons to human beings are actually castrating human beings so that human beings will lose the ability to fight against the demons forever. As long as they eat the things grown from those seeds, human beings must submit to the rule of the demons, there is no second way.

At that time, under the conspiracy of the demons, the entire race finally awakened after paying a heavy price, and became the backbone of the human race to resist the demons and wage two holy wars with the demons.

If I create a new seabuckthorn tree species myself, I certainly won't use it to poison these people living on this land, but if the people here will rely on those seabuckthorn trees to live, then, just like when the demons used it Just as food seeds ruled human beings, they can also have a strong influence on the ice and snow wasteland by controlling and using those seabuckthorn trees. The logical relationship between the two is consistent.

If it was before, Zhang Tie might not have such an ambitious idea, but at this moment, as soon as this idea appeared, it immediately spread like weeds in Zhang Tie's heart.

Seeing that Zhang Tie stopped moving, Village Chief Zige thought that the food they served Zhang Tie was not to Zhang Tie's liking, and asked with some concern, "Why, don't you like this?"

"Ah, of course not!" Zhang Tie suddenly laughed, "I just heard you talk about the many functions of seabuckthorn, and I couldn't help but want to find some seeds of this plant to take back as a souvenir! "

"Do you want seabuckthorn seeds?" asked Village Chief Zig.

"Is there any more in the village? If not, I'll find some in the wild!"

Village Chief Zig laughed loudly, and said boldly, "There is nothing else in Kurgan Village, but seabuckthorn seeds are abundant, and those seabuckthorn seeds are used to extract oil. No, there are hundreds of kilograms left, you can take as much as you want, if you have a place to stay, I can ask all the young people in the village to send it to you!"

"You don't need so much, just a small bag, half a kilogram is enough!"

"Hasan, go, find a small sack and fill a small bag of sea buckthorn seeds for Peter in the mill in the village!" Village Chief Zig said as he stroked his six or seven-year-old grandson named Hasan.

Hearing this, the grandson of Village Chief Zig glanced at Zhang Tie, nodded and rushed out of the door. After a while, he came back with a small sack containing about one or two kilograms of seabuckthorn seeds. up...

Seeing those seabuckthorn seeds, Zhang Tie narrowed his eyes slightly. The more seeds, for the Black Iron Fortress, as long as he is willing to invest, it means that he can obtain a complete evolution and mutation in the shortest possible time. There are not many seabuckthorn seeds, as long as you use different schemes to invest different merit points, aura points and basic energy reserves in more than 300 seabuckthorn seeds at the same time in the Black Iron Fort, you may be able to get them once. A brand new sea buckthorn seed.

No matter how low the chances of these seabuckthorn species mutating and evolving in the Black Iron Fortress were, it was still not worth the quantitative advantage obtained by investing so many seeds at the same time. This is seeking qualitative change with quantitative change.

Zhang Tie laughed when he thought that at some point in the future, the entire ice and snow wasteland would be full of seabuckthorn trees that would "be obedient" to him.

After dinner, it was already dark, and Zhang Tie, who was chatting with Village Chief Zig in the yard and constantly expanding his knowledge of the ice and snow wasteland, saw the boys of Ivan again, who came to invite Zhang Tie participated in the bonfire party at night.

"Go, the night belongs to you young people, and only you young people will be there at the bonfire party. We old people won't get in the way!" Village Chief Zig also encouraged Zhang Tie to go to the bonfire party to have a look.

Zhang Tie readily agreed without thinking too much. Anyway, it was still early to go to bed at this time, and everyone was young, so it was okay to go and have a look.

Seeing that Zhang Tie agreed, Ivan and the teenagers were very happy. When he was about to leave, Ivan pointed to the heavy-duty repeating crossbow that Zhang Tie kept at the village head Zig's house, "Can you send that big guy Take it with you, many people have never seen such a machine crossbow, and many people in the village want to open their eyes!"

Zhang Tie picked up the machine crossbow without saying a word, and everyone laughed.

The bonfire party in Kurgan Village is held in an open space in the middle of the village. Every night, this is the world of young people and children in Kurgan Village. Everyone set up a large fire in the open space and surrounded the fire Sitting together, chatting, drinking, singing, dancing, and sharing what they have gained in a day, those young people who are restless in their adolescence wrestle here or compare their combat skills with their peers, etc. It is very lively.

The hardworking girls from Kurgan Village, who help with the work at home during the day, also came out. The girls and boys sat together, laughing and playing together without any shyness.

Children ran around the fire, catching fireflies or playing hide and seek.

Married and elderly people in the village will not participate in such gatherings in Kurgan Village at night, so there is basically no restraint here, and it is the world of young people.

Ivan said that this kind of gathering happens every day, and it is not specially held for Zhang Tie. As long as the weather permits or there are no other things, the young people in the village spend time here every night. Everyone likes to participate in this kind of gathering since they were young. reunion.

Before arriving at the venue, Zhang Tie saw a raging fire burning here and heard the laughter and the sound of children playing and playing in the distance.

When he came to the scene, Zhang Tie found that there were about four to five hundred people in the whole party, not too many, not too few. They were in their early twenties, and the youngest was about five or six years old. They were still running around with their buttocks naked, and everyone had a relaxed and happy expression on their faces.

When I came to Zhang Tie's place, I noticed that just beside the bonfire, more than 20 young people had marked out an area there, and several tens of meters away were several trees wrapped in animal skins. The straw men were playing a game of throwing spears, and everyone was very happy.

What kind of bonfire party is this? It is clearly an open-air party held by young people in Kurgan Village every night. Every night, I have this kind of lively gathering and communication with a lot of familiar peers. This kind of treatment is really beyond the enjoyment of a small citizen like myself who has lived in the city since childhood. The place where young people in the city gather is the bar, but the atmosphere and feeling in the bar is nothing compared to this place. Not to mention, back then, I was so poor that I couldn't afford to spend money in places like bars.

At this moment, to be honest, Zhang Tie was somewhat envious of the night life of these young people in Kurgan Village. In such a happy, harmonious and comfortable gathering, everyone didn't spend any money, only a fire, but everyone's happiness was something that many people couldn't buy with a lot of gold coins.

Zhang Tie's arrival did not cause any sensation, and his appearance did not have any sound and light effects, nor was it grand. Everyone here was very casual and at ease. In the circle where the young men belonged, everyone chatted happily.

The heavy metal repeating crossbow brought by Zhang Tie seemed to attract more attention than Zhang Tie. As soon as the big guy took it out, a lot of young people immediately surrounded him, and they all wanted to try it out. try.

After teaching those people how to adjust the torque gear used by the big guy for winding the hydraulic slide rod, the big guy left Zhang Tie's hand and began to pass around among a group of young people, groping around , Many people want to try to see if they can pick up this heavy metal machine crossbow.

Those who could pick up the crossbow looked at Zhang Tie with admiration, and those who couldn't pick up the crossbow with blushing faces would not be too embarrassed, but slightly uncomfortable. Sorry, because there will always be bursts of good-natured laughter around.

After obtaining Zhang Tie's consent, several young people even wanted to try the power of this heavy metal machine crossbow. Ivan and the others said that this machine crossbow could kill the iron-toothed hyena at a distance of 100 meters. After the hole was pierced, the lingering power remained undiminished, allowing the arrows to sink into the ground of the gray hill without showing at all, which made everyone eager to try.

When the crossbow was being tested, almost all the young people gathered around to watch.

The place where the young people in Kurgan Village tested the power of the machine crossbow was at the place where a group of young people were discussing javelin throwing skills just now. Zhang Tie asked those young people to put three targets originally used for throwing javelins in a line, and then 40 meters away Test firing outside.

Because almost none of these young people in the village can hold the big guy and make horizontal shooting movements as easily as Zhang Tie, so the big guy was directly carried by several young people in the village to one and a half people. How tall is the wooden vaulting horse that children play, and everyone shoots when the vaulting horse drags the metal tripod that the big guy opens.

Boorman was the first to test fire. He inserted a metal crossbow bolt magazine into the magazine slot at the bottom of the machine crossbow, and after struggling to slide the winding rod eight times in a row, he finally released the heavy machine gun with a click. The crossbow was well-stringed, and then put a shoulder against the folded movable crossbow handle of the machine crossbow, and pulled the trigger after aiming for a few seconds.

Almost everyone didn't hear the slight beep when the machine crossbow was fired, but only saw the three targets in the distance explode at the same time.

"Wow..." All the young people in Kurgan Village exclaimed. The power of this machine crossbow exceeded many people's imagination.

"This thing can't be made even in Eskil City..." A young man sighed, "I have seen heavy machine crossbows made in Eskiel City, and they don't have such power at all, and there is no such thing. delicate!"

"This thing should cost a lot of money!" Ivan looked at the machine crossbow and asked Zhang Tie with stars in his eyes.

"Well, probably!" In fact, even Zhang Tie is not very clear about the price of this heavy-duty machine crossbow, because this machine crossbow is exactly what Zhang Tie bought from the Guild Hall of the Zhen Family in Tianhan City a few days ago. The munitions from the warehouse were all imported from the mainland. In the Black Iron Fort, there were more than a dozen of the same heavy machine crossbow. After arriving at the gray hill, Zhang Tie found that he could use this thing to kill those The iron-toothed hyena is the most efficient and the most trouble-free, so I took a handful of this big guy from the Black Iron Fortress.

For such a thing, in Huaiyuan County, Zhang Tie estimated that the price of the machine crossbow should be around 400 gold coins, and the price in other places may be even higher. And the price of a Sedragon T9 sports car is only more than 500 gold coins. In this sense, the price of this machine crossbow is indeed very expensive.

In the following time, almost all the twelve-year-old youths in Kurgan Village lined up to test shoot once, and even the girls joined in without showing any weakness, and passed one by one. Addiction to heavy crossbows.

The party tonight was lively and happy, and Zhang Tie also played the role of a weapon explainer and operation instructor casually, teaching the young people in Kurgan Village to become familiar with the operation and shooting essentials of this heavy crossbow . After all, this kind of thing is a bit like a large-caliber heavy weapon before the cataclysm, not everyone has the opportunity to play with it. And tonight, this thing became like a big toy at the bonfire party, making a large group of people happy.

Zhang Tie himself felt very happy after spending an evening with a group of peers without any scheming.

...

The bonfire party lasted until almost twelve o'clock in the evening. As the flames in the fire gradually dimmed, the young people who had played together all night also returned home.

Zhang Tie was arranged by the village chief Zig to live in the only public house in the whole village. That public house, that is, the small wooden house built by the people in Kurgan Village, if any relatives or guests came to Kurgan In Gan Village, when the family cannot accommodate them, they can live in the public house. The guardian of the wilderness of the Guardian God Sect who came to Kurgan Village last time lived in the public house of Kurgan Village.

Zhang Tie naturally had no objection to this, because he found that the cabins used as public housing were actually better built than most people’s cabins, and although the bedding and other things in the public housing did not look new, they were all washed. It was very clean, and it smelled like sunshine, all of which were prepared for him.

...

After the lights of every household in Kurgan Village were extinguished, Zhang Tie, who was sleeping on the bed, was about to enter the Black Iron Fortress to taste the seven-li fruit harvested today, but his ears suddenly heard the noise from outside the cabin. The slight sound of footsteps made Zhang Tie stop thinking about entering the Black Iron Fort.

So late, who could it be?

"Dong dong dong..." After waiting for a while, someone finally knocked lightly on his door.

When the voice rang for the second time, Zhang Tie turned over and got out of bed, and opened the wooden door of the cabin.

A young and beautiful girl of eighteen or nineteen was standing outside the door, wearing a big bearskin cape. Zhang Tie seemed to be able to smell the fragrance of the girl's freshly bathed body dew.

This girl looks familiar, she seems to have met once tonight, by the way, she seems to be Ivan's sister...

Before Zhang Tie could speak, the girl smiled, walked in, closed the door by herself, and then took off the bearskin cloak on her body, letting the cloak fall on the floor of the wooden house. The body of Zhang Tie appeared in front of Zhang Tie... (to be continued. [This text is provided by 晓晨Update Group x-on:凡、乐].
