MTL - I Have a System of Orcs-~ chapter 42
The matter in the farmland finally came to an end, and the males drawn from the hunting team and patrol team all returned to their posts, but the tribe still experienced great changes. For example, the scope of the tribe has expanded a lot. For example, the tough grass between the north and south mountains has been pulled out, and there is an additional water diversion channel without water in the middle. For example, the tribe that was silent before has become extremely lively at the moment. The females did not stay at home as before, but gathered in front of the piles of tough grass to weave shoes, chatting casually while weaving shoes, hundreds of people gathered together is naturally lively.
Wei Changcheng looked at it for a while, then quietly went to the river.
The little beasts fell in love with the game that Wei Changcheng taught yesterday, and they are still playing it happily today. Wei Changcheng smiled, but sat by the river and did not participate in it.
But the little male who was the first to talk to Wei Changcheng yesterday ran to Wei Changcheng and sat down, tilting his head and looking at Wei Changcheng.
"What's the matter?" Wei Changcheng turned his head to the side and smiled, raising his hand to rub Xiaoxiong's hair.
"Uncle Wei, why are you sitting here? Why don't you come and play with us?"
"Because uncle is an adult and you are children, it's fine for uncle to watch you play."
The little male curled his lips: "Uncle Wei, my name is Difu, I'll sit here with you too."
Wei Changcheng glanced at Difu amusedly, his tone seemed to be giving alms, but it was enough not to be annoying: "Okay, then Difu can sit here with uncle for a while."
Diff patted his chest: "Don't worry uncle, you won't be bored with Diff accompanying your uncle." But to put it nicely, it didn't take long before Diff couldn't sit still, twisting left and right, I don't know I thought I had ADHD.
Wei Changcheng looked funny from the corner of his eye, and didn't speak. It just depends on how long Deve can endure. He said, "Uncle Wei, let me tell you, it will be really hot during the scorching moon. At that time, we males will all go into the water to play, but it will be cooler."
Wei Changcheng pursed his lips and looked down at Difu: "Sounds good, but it's not good to go into the water often, you will get sick."
"Fortunately, our male body is not so resistant!" Difu shook his head triumphantly, "Little females can't go into the water, but our males are different, even if they are soaked in the water all the time. What about the relationship, the little females can only look at us pitifully on the shore."
As soon as Difu opened his mouth, he couldn't stop, and the more he talked, the more excited he was: "We will also have a water fight in the water, haha, it's a lot of fun! By the way, there is a kind of rock in this river that is very interesting." Speaking of this, Difu lowered his voice, and said, almost lying next to Wei Changcheng's ear, "The stone is black in the water, but it is transparent when you take it out, as if there is water in it! It's me and my friends. A friend found it, and at first we thought it was some kind of treasure, so we went to the patriarch with stones in our hands, but the patriarch scolded us."
Wei Chang intentionally moved, and asked calmly: "Isn't it just a stone, why did the patriarch scold you?"
"We don't know." At this point, Difu became visibly disappointed and his head drooped. "The patriarch asked us to put the stones back into the river, and we are not allowed to take the stones out of the river."
Wei Changcheng was excited. If he was right, what Difu said should be the answer he was looking for. Unexpectedly, the mission that I had almost given up on, and I only thought about getting Jeffrey to tell me the answer before the deadline of the mission anyway, would actually get the result from Diff!
But before that, Wei Changcheng still had to see the stone in Difu's mouth for himself.
Wei Changcheng went down the river without hesitation, startling Difu beside him: "Uncle Wei, what are you doing? It's not so hot now, there's no need to go down."
Standing in the river, Wei Changcheng pinched Difu's face: "Uncle wants to see the stone that Difu said."
When he heard that it was related to him, Difu didn't stop Wei Changcheng, and even jumped into the river excitedly: "Uncle Wei, I'll help you find me."
Wei Changcheng agreed. After all, Difu knew what the stone looked like, and it was much easier to find it than himself. Someone over there has noticed Wei Changcheng and Difu, and they all ran to the shore out of curiosity: "Uncle Wei, Difu, what are you doing?"
"I'm helping Uncle Wei find stones!" Difu hurriedly said, Wei Changben wanted to stop him, but in the end he didn't say anything and let Difu go.
"Looking for stones? Are they in the river?" a little female asked, "Why do you want to look for them in the river? There are many stones on the ground."
Sure enough, no matter where they are, children's curiosity and pursuit will not change.
"What I'm looking for is not an ordinary stone!" Difu said mysteriously, although the patriarch forbade them to play with stones, but this did not prevent Difu from showing off this matter, "There is a kind of stone in this water that is interesting." Already! You wait, I will find it for you!"
While Difu was talking with his friends, Wei Changcheng had already found the strange stone that Difu was talking about. When he fished out the dark stone from the bottom of the river, Wei Changcheng knew that this was the answer he was looking for! Through the sunlight, Wei Changcheng squinted his eyes and looked at the translucent stone, which seemed to be still flowing with clear river water. When he pinched it, although it was hard, it was not as hard as ordinary stones.
At this moment, Wei Changcheng was not in the mood to stay here any longer, and was about to run to his cave with the stone in his hand. Before he could run, he stopped as if thinking of something, and told the little orcs present. He said: "Throw the stone into the river after you have finished reading it, don't take it away, or the patriarch will be angry."
Not to mention that the little orcs themselves are very obedient, just because of the prestige of the patriarch, none of the little orcs present did not respect and fear. When Wei Changcheng said the patriarch, naturally no one would not obediently agree of. Wei Changcheng didn't care too much, since the patriarch forbade Difu to play with the stones in the river, that means these things can only stay in the water, although Wei Changcheng is still ignorant now, but listened to the patriarch's advice There was nothing wrong with it. When I finished the task, the stone in my hand would naturally be put back into the river.
There were quite a few people walking around in the tribe. After all, no one could just sit there and weave shoes all the time, because Wei Changcheng, who was walking in a hurry, didn't attract the attention of others, and went straight back to his cave.
Wei Changcheng sat down on the wooden bed, put the stone in front of him, stared at it for a moment, and gritted his teeth: "Xiao Ke, I think the secret of the river's water level falling is because of these stones at the bottom of the river?"
[Ding! Ask the host to tell the specific reason why the water level of the river drops during the rainy season. ]
Now that Xiao Ke said so, Wei Changcheng knew that he was right, and suppressed the excitement in his heart, Wei Changcheng calmed down and thought about the specific reasons carefully, and subconsciously put his eyes on the stone on the bed. When the stone was taken out of the river, it changed from black to transparent, and it seemed more like it was filled with water—filled with water? Could it be that the water level of the river drops during the rainy season because the excess water is absorbed by the stone?
But how big is this stone! Shocked, Wei Changcheng picked up the stone and pinched it around, trying to find out if there was any mechanism on the stone. Of course, it is impossible to have a mechanism, so in the end, Wei Changcheng had to believe his absurd guess at the beginning, that the water should be absorbed by these stones.
"The specific reason, well, is that every time it rains in the rainy season, the extra water in the river will be absorbed by this kind of stone, so the water in the river not only did not increase but also decreased. Therefore, on the land of the orcs, the flood has already It doesn't exist anymore."
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the mission "The Mystery of the Falling River Water Level". Reward for successful mission: Cement formula. Attached space stone information: Space stone, the body is stone-shaped, black, mainly used to adjust the water volume. Putting enough space stones into rivers, lakes or oceans that need to be adjusted can achieve the effect of water balance. If there is too much water, it will be absorbed, and if there is little water, it will be released. When the water is saturated, the stone will be transparent when taken out of the water. Does the other host want to read the cement recipe now? ]
Wei Changcheng pondered for a moment, and chose to read.
The significance of Xiao Ke's existence is that besides being able to bring various aspects of knowledge to Wei Changcheng, what is more important is that before Wei Changcheng read it, the information Xiao Ke gave was all things that could be found in the Beastman Continent. The earth is better, and some effects are worse than the earth, but in any case, the most important thing is to be able to find a substitute, otherwise even if Wei Changcheng knows how to do it, wouldn't it be useless if he couldn't find the materials?
Later, Wei Changcheng figured it out, Xiao Ke must have been stimulated that time, well, it was the time when he was making tables and chairs. The things that Xiao Ke provided to himself were of no use to him at all, and it seemed that from then on, the things that Xiao Ke gave to himself were no longer flashy. Well, from this point of view, Xiao Ke's self-esteem is quite strong!
Closer to home, Wei Changcheng got the method of making cement from Xiao Ke. After careful study and clapping his hands, it seems quite easy. What Wei Changcheng fears most is that there are some chemicals that he can’t get out by himself. , Now seeing Wei Changcheng in this way is relieved. Wei Changcheng grabbed the stone and left the cave, put the stone back into the river, and asked the little orcs who were still playing by the river. After learning that they had put the stone back into the river, Wei Changcheng was relieved. Went to Boris, Alan and Roy.
When Daniel was not around, Wei Changcheng could discuss with these people. The four found a quiet place and sat down in a circle. Wei Changcheng spoke first: "We are going to make cement now."
"Cement?" It was another thing they hadn't even heard of. The three of them couldn't help but look dazed, with a hint of impatience in their daze. Who wouldn't want to see the changes and development of the tribe every day?
Looking at the expectant eyes of the three people in front of him, Wei Changcheng struggled and hesitated for a long time. He was thinking whether he should tell the few people about the house. After all, the cement formula is already available now, and success is only a matter of time. The matter of the house is just a little horoscope, so it’s okay to get to the bottom of it first, but it’s good for only a few people like yourself to know first, and don’t reveal it.
"I'm going to build a house!" Wei Changcheng said firmly.
