Section 395 Bow and Arrow

Men have their own taboos. For example, no one is allowed to watch when their wives are taking a bath; for example, they must not be seen when they pick their feet and masturbate; for example, they must not answer the phone when they violently ravage the goddess, otherwise they will be frightened and will be forever.

Yes, Veratura is a savage.

All the villagers of Molizha Village are barbarians.

They have extremely strong special physiques, but they are still no match for the mutant people entrenched on the mountain. The monsters have already nurtured yellow crystals in their minds. Similar substances have been discovered in the future world. However, the yellow crystals found in this time and space are all two kinds of things, and the crystals in the world where Su Hao was originally located.

The crystals found on the mutant are purer and have almost no impurities. Thanks to Wang Qinian's special use of crystal energy, Su Hao carried many machinery driven by crystals during this trip. If it weren't for the extraordinary gravity environment that destroyed the machinery, Su Hao had already used the crystals he obtained to set up a small power station in the village.

The meat of mutants can be eaten, and the meat of savages can be eaten. This is the biggest gain from Su Hao’s conversation with Veratura.

There is no doubt that both mutants and barbarians have human genes. Eating people is undoubtedly a sin, but eating creatures that are similar to oneself but are definitely not the same kind is natural and logical.

Veratura himself said that he had lived for hundreds of years, and the average life expectancy of the villagers of Moli Zhaka is also growing outrageously. From this point of view, Su Hao has sufficient reason to determine that they are not pure humans.

Mutants make even more sense. No matter how they look at it, they are like advanced evolutions of mutated creatures in the abandoned cities of the Earth. What's more, although Su Hao did not find silver bones in their bodies, he found a purer crystal.

Moli Zhaka Village has not captured decent prey for a long time. What is decent prey? Of course, it refers to larger prey such as deer and wild boar. Well, this is Su Hao's biased idea of ​​applying the thinking of the earthlings, but Veratura's idea is similar to this.

The mountain range outside the village is very large, and even if it is not difficult to penetrate deep due to danger, you can always catch some small animals outside. When Veratura talked about the last time he saw the red-tailed grouse decades ago, he almost burst into tears. That means that similar animals have completely extinct around Molizaka Village.

The basis of animal survival is plants. There are dense plants but no animals. This kind of thing doesn't make sense.

The only explanation is that these animals encountered natural enemies that were stronger than them.

All the mutants who were dissected in the pyramid have sharp teeth. Their sharpness and hardness are completely standard for meat food species. Their masseter muscles are very developed and even the hard skull can be chewed. Su Hao found undigested remains such as turtle rats in the stomach of pigs, which proves that mutants are not picky about food. They act as hunters in the mountains and hunt other animals for food. Occasionally, they also want to change their tastes and go down the mountain to hit the village and hunt giants.

It is not difficult to figure out the relationship clearly. The reason why Veratura is confused is entirely because it has never left this village, has never come into contact with a larger world, and has more people. Su Hao comes from another time and space, and the wisdom and experience he has is completely beyond Veratura's imagination. Especially from the perspective of the bystander, he naturally looks at the problem more thoroughly.

"Take me to the pyramid and find me where you sense the existence of the Lord God."

Su Hao's words had become an order. When he walked out of the shed, the villagers kneeling outside had spontaneously made way. Veratura accelerated his pace and trotted all the way. Its hunched out of his slightest look of the dignity that the priest should have.

Su Hao walked very quickly, with unconcealed sarcasm in his words: "You have been waiting for so long by a liar. Haven't you seen any flaws? Have you never doubted it?"

Of course, these words were said to Veratura.

Molizhaka Village and Mutants are two different groups. Each battle will lead to death. To be fair, the combat power of the mutant is actually similar to that of the villagers, but it has more advantages in mutant weapons and individual speed. Taking the pig-shaped mutant who was killed in the battle as an example, as long as two villagers who know how to fight the skills closely cooperate, it is easy to find weaknesses and kill them. The same is true for dealing with flexible mosquito mutants. They are even better than the pig-shaped mutant. Since they occupy the advantage of the wall, they can be used to use bows and arrows...

By the way, bow and arrow

Su Hao suddenly stood up, and an incredible expression appeared on his face subconsciously.

He turned around and stared at Veratura standing next to him with a very strange gaze. His voice was so weird that even Su Hao felt terrible himself.

"Tell me, where did those weapons come from when we just walked out of the passage?"

Veratura was very confused about the changes in Su Hao, so he could only answer honestly: "We made it ourselves."

"You can actually forge weapons?"

Su Hao's voice began to tremble: "There are mutants everywhere outside the village. Where did you get the ore? How do you refine it? The materials of those weapons are very good, there are no coal mines around, and the weeds inside and outside the village are only enough for you to use as daily firewood. How do you complete the metal smelting and building?"

Veratura only felt an indescribable fear enveloped him. The source was obviously Su Hao, but it did not understand why Su Hao suddenly released such a terrible aura. Veratura knelt down again and shivered: "Those weapons have existed for hundreds of years. They have been like that since I can remember. Some of them are even older than me."

"You guys just keep fighting with that kind of thing? Isn't it worn or worn?"

“Of course there is.”

"Then how do you repair it?"

Veratura calmed down, raised his head and said tremblingly: "Your Excellency, you mentioned the word "coal". I don't know what it is. However, according to your words, I infer that it should be a substance that can burn. Is that true?"

Su Hao narrowed his eyes and nodded gloomyly.

"What you said "coal" should be the same thing as the "carbon stone" we know."

As he said that, Veratura pointed to the south of the village: "There is our carbide pit, and every once in a while, enough carbide can be dug out there."

The old man's explanation was a bit inexplicable, but Su Hao understood some hidden meanings. At this time, several "worker bees" came from the direction of the pyramid. Su Hao waved at them, suppressed the fear in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "Take me over and see the kind of carbon stone. Now immediately."

It was a circular open space with a diameter of about 100 meters. The soil on the ground was no different from the soil covering the entire village. It was gray-black in color, sticky, and became soft when exposed to water, and it became hard after sunburn.

“This is our carbide site.”

Veratura walked diligently before introducing: "Carbonite is buried below. When needed, we will open the soil layer and dig them out. This thing is very resistant to burning and is an indispensable fuel for smelting metal. For hundreds of years, we have continuously renovated and recasted the old weapons left by our ancestors, and this has been maintained until now."

Su Hao glanced at Veratura and asked, "How much is the reserves below?"

Veratura was stunned: "Reserves? What reserves?"

Looking at the old man's idiot expression, Su Hao knew that his question would never be answered. He sighed and changed to another question: "How many carbonites have you dug out from here in total? How many parts underneath that have not yet been excavated?"

"The carbonite that was dug out in the past has been consumed. If you need accurate numbers, you can ask the specific person in charge of the furnace."

Veratura was still unable to understand Su Hao’s question, and his voice seemed a little hesitant: “But you, please ask how many parts that have not been excavated yet, this… I really don’t know.”

Su Hao frowned again: "Do you can't see such things as how many are dug up and how many are left?"

Veratura's expression suddenly became flickering, and his eyes looked at Su Hao became more complicated. It took a long time to ask tentatively: "What do you mean is, do you want to know the remaining amount of carbohydrates?"

Su Hao also locked the other party with his eyes and nodded deeply.

"How many were there before digging out? After digging out, their number was still the same as before."

Veratura's words sound like a fantasy: "Carbonite is something that can grow freely. We can only harvest once a year, and the quantity can fill that warehouse."

As he said that, it raised its hand and pointed to a large shed on the north side of the village.

"Carbonite does not need to be managed. After digging, cover the original floating soil, and the original space will be filled in the next year."

"The Lord God warned us that charcoal is a very precious fuel and can only be used for smelting and building weapons, and is strictly forbidden to cook food."

"If there is no carbon, we have no weapons to deal with those monsters."

Veratura stood beside him and said, and Su Hao, who was covered in blue, was about to wield a scoop on the ground. Although the metal used to make the shovel came from the earth, it could barely deal with the loose soil here. A few minutes later, Su Hao had dug a shallow pit with a diameter of two meters and more than 30 centimeters deep. When the wielding shovel tip fell, it hit a hard substance and a clear crack was broken.

Su Hao squatted down, used his fingers to push away the soil, and picked up a black stone the size of a fist.

That's right, this is indeed coal, which is what Veratura calls "carboniferous".

Su Hao certainly knows what coal is.

That is the result of ancient plants moving through billions of years of earth's crust. They were impacted, squeezed, buried for billions of years, and after countless accumulations and crushing, they finally became black stones for burning. If the word "growth" must be used to describe it, then the time suffix added at the end must be a long astronomical number.

What did Villatrola just say?

As long as you dig it and cover the floating soil, new charcoal will grow here a year later.

In just one year, can coal grow in such a damn place?

Is this guy playing tricks on me?

Or does it think that I am a fool who can deceive and tease at will?

Su Hao had no expression on his face, but the "worker bees" following behind him clearly felt his anger. No one could be more familiar with the emotional changes of the "Queen Bee" than them. Without orders, the "worker bees" held their weapons one after another, and their eyes were even colder when they looked at Veratura.

The silence lasted for nearly two minutes. Su Hao tried hard to calm himself, without erupting, but asked in a voice that was so cold that he couldn't believe it: "Do you dig out so much carbonite every time?"

Veratura is not a fool. It already felt that Su Hao was hostile to him. It was very panicked, but there was no way to solve the current predicament. Veratura stared at every slight change on Su Hao's face, and listened to every word Su Hao said with his ears. The moment the problem was just spoken, it blurted out almost without thinking: "Yes, the number of excavations is the same every time."

Su Hao's eyes became as sharp as a knife, and his voice was irresistible: "Take me to see it, go now."

The door of the large shed was closed and was pushed open with a slight move. There were no valuable items here, and as for the precise device used as a defense against thieves, such as "lock", it is probably not yet invented in the current world.

The house was very empty. Although the terrain was raised, the structure of the house made of wood was very loose, and there was no waterproofing. There were a lot of black crushed coal scattered on the ground south of the house. Su Hao walked over, bent down and picked up a piece, put it in his palm, and looked carefully in the flames.

After leaving the warehouse, Veratura took the group to the blacksmith shop next to Su Hao's request, as he took Su Hao's group to the blacksmith shop next to him.

There are furnaces, iron felts, various complete iron tools, and some simple weapons that have been formed and have not yet been ground out.

Su Hao found a pile of charcoal next to the iron felt. This shows that the villagers of Molizhaka Village already know how to create steel with extremely high hardness. From the perspective of modern people, the various facilities here are undoubtedly primitive, but no matter what, this place is a world with gravity far higher than the earth.

Su Hao's eyes swept over the rough weapon placed beside the wall in sequence, and finally stopped on Veratura and asked, "Why are there no bows and arrows here?"

When Su Hao walked out of the passage and got the weapon in the pyramid, he had already had this problem.

Bows and arrows should be regarded as the greatest progress in the era of cold weapons in humans. Its appearance means that the attack distance is increased exponentially, and it can even produce similar effects of curved artillery bombardment in later generations in the form of "shooting". It is no exaggeration to say that this is the original prototype of guns in later generations.

When did the primitive people on Earth start to use bows and arrows? Su Hao has no accurate answer to this. Humans have long discovered the subtle balance and utilization relationship between distance and power. For example, throwing guns, throwing stones, and large bed crossbows, stone throwing cars that appeared later, etc.

Moli Zhaka Village is not a paradise. It is only a wall between death and death. The main entrance of the village is more than 100 meters away, and it has become an important source of food for mutants to hunt. Although Veratura previously described the great history of Moli Zhaka Village, in Su Hao's view, it is actually a process from prosperity to decline.

How many mutants are there outside the village? It is still a question with no answer. It has been less than twenty-four hours since Su Hao came to this world, but everything he saw is shocking.

No matter in Molizaka Village or inside the pyramid, the familiar spiral characters cannot be found.

Local natives such as Veratura are obviously still out of primitive society. They have no words, but have a rigorous and mature language system. The strangest thing is that Su Hao has never learned this difficult pronunciation, and he has never been exposed to all the "worker bees" under his command, but after he came out of the passage, everyone can use it proficiently. If this phenomenon is explained by the term "electromagnetic consciousness infusion", then can it be understood that all knowledge can be forcibly injected into the human brain through similar means? No need to learn, we are born to be an active protein reservoir?

They don't even know Sinno and Ahaha, and the names of the villagers of Molizaka are completely different from those of the two Atlantis killed in the underwater pyramids. In contrast, the killed messenger Hababanora has similar pronunciations to the villagers here.

Could it be that Moli Zhaka Village is also a world created like the earth? Everyone here is a creator?

There is only one entrance to the Atlantic Ocean submarine channel. Su Hao and the others entered completely under the guidance of the light beam. There is no fork or turn, and there is no choice such as the second or third exit. This is connected to the earth, is the only difference lies in gravity?

Moreover, they didn't have bows or arrows.

This is not normal.

The smelting water products in Moli Zhaka Village have reached a very advanced level. The villagers can create hard and sharp swords or small daggers. However, Veratura seemed confused and confused about the "bow and arrow" mentioned by Su Hao.

The old man tried his best to ask in a humble tone that was not angry with Su Hao: "What is a bow and arrow?"

Yes, what is a bow and arrow?

Su Hao really wanted to make a standard bow and archery movement as a demonstration. He soon discovered that when facing a person who cannot understand his words, no matter how much explanation is, it will not work. Just like when you tell a poor man who stays in a valley for many years and earns less than 500 yuan a year, the brand-name slippers worn by a noble lady must cost tens of thousands of yuan to buy, the poor man will only think that you are a nonsense madman, and he is the normal person with a clear mind.

There were Yu Ji's wooden sticks and ropes in the blacksmith shop. Su Hao made a simple bow and arrow with these two things. The wooden pole without arrows flew more than ten meters in the air and fell to the ground. When Su Hao picked up this "arrow", he found that Veratura's eyes were already wide open and his face was full of incredible expressions.
