"Well, how's the investigation going? Did you find the location of that tribe's camp?" While speaking, Luo Ji handed the scout a bowl of hot soup, motioning him to take a breath and speak slowly.
By the way, in this tribe, he has two titles, namely 'patriarch' and 'leader', like Luo Yong, Luo Jin, the original members of the Mingjing tribe, they called Luo Ji Patriarch, and later joined Those who came in were calling him the leader. On this issue, Luo Ji himself was relatively indifferent, as long as he spoke well, otherwise, even calling him 'The Emperor' would be useless.
After the bowl of hot soup was finished, the scout's frozen cheeks showed a few traces of blood. Looking at the other party's appearance, Luo Ji was suddenly a little worried that the other party would catch the cold. After all, the weather is still cold. It was quite cold, and he spent a night in the open air, one can imagine his state.
"By the way, try this..." Luo Ji, who suddenly remembered something, started digging around in his pocket. He almost forgot that even though the crops he dug were still behind, the two heads of garlic he was holding in his hands earlier , he took it back easily.
"Boss, what is this?" The scout, who had never seen garlic before, looked confused.
"Like this..." While speaking, Luo Ji took out another piece of garlic, and after simply peeling off the outer garlic skin, he threw a clove into his mouth, and then bit it hard. Although these few heads of garlic have a much weaker flavor due to the season, how long has Luo Ji's mouth faded?What else is there to pick and choose?
When the scout saw this, he also threw a clove into his mouth. However, as a person who had never eaten garlic before, the ending could be imagined after taking this sip. The scout's entire face wrinkled on the spot, "Cough, cough, cough! Chief, this, this thing..."
"Hahahaha..." The other party's embarrassed appearance made Luo Ji burst into laughter, and he didn't forget to remind the other party, "Swallow it, this is a good thing, it can ward off the cold."
"Really? Cough, cough..." In fact, even if Luo Ji didn't say it, he wouldn't spit it out. People in this era have never been picky about what they eat. In order to fill their stomachs, no matter how delicious or bad they are, they can What you eat in your mouth will almost never come out again.
I don't know if it was because of Luo Ji's words. After swallowing this mouthful, he seemed to really feel a little warm in his stomach. At this moment, he suddenly realized that this thing in his hand was really like As the leader said, this is a good thing.
Chapter 60. Judgment and Strengths
Having personally experienced the effect of garlic, the scout's eyes when looking at the garlic in his hand obviously changed, and his mood also became a little tangled.
Seeing this, Luo Ji laughed twice, "The garlic is given to you as a reward for your mission."
"Really? Thank you boss!" The scout was very happy about this reward. Imagine if he could throw a clove of garlic into his mouth when he was frozen and stiff on a mission outside... …
However, he hadn't finished thinking about it yet. Luo Ji, who seemed to realize something, hurriedly spoke again, "Oh, by the way, let me remind you, you must not eat this when you are on a mission."
"Ah? Why?" He had just thought about it beautifully, but in the blink of an eye, the leader reminded him not to eat when he was on a mission, which made him a little confused.
Luo Ji also casually reminded him, but he didn't expect that he would get it right.
According to Luo Ji's words, he took a casual breath and smelled it, and then his whole face suddenly turned ashen, "Well, this smell..."
"Understood? The smell is too strong."
After seeing that the other party was almost resting, Luo Ji quickly changed the topic to the main business. The scout quickly spread out the map he was carrying, and then pointed to a mark somewhere on the map. Obviously, when he found out When the opponent's tribe was located, they had already found an opportunity to mark it on the map.
"This location..." Luo Ji's brows furrowed as he looked at the location pointed by the other party, "The periphery of the woods on the west side?"
"Yes." The scout nodded, "From the tribe, if you are familiar with the terrain, it will take about half a day's journey. We did reconnaissance in the original area, and there was no tribe stationed there at that time. , I am afraid that the other party migrated after that."
"How about the number of people? Has this been checked?" Luo Ji asked. Ji had already decided in his heart that he would swallow it by force.
"Based on the tents in the camp, there are probably 50 to [-] people..." The scout paused a little at this point, "Also, I saw someone in that tribe holding a stone ax and a stone spear. "
Luo Ji's pupils shrank obviously when he heard the news, "Is it the tribe we forcibly drove out last time?"
"It shouldn't be." The scout shook his head, "I didn't see any familiar faces in the other tribe."
Luo Ji's heart sank. To be honest, this answer is even worse. The previous tribe, considering the strength of the young leader, is naturally not easy to deal with, but the other party already knows how powerful they are. Deterrence, maybe there is no need to fight. , the other party will obediently leave. After all, he knows he can't beat him, but he still wants to fight. Isn't that blaming himself?
But the current situation has given Luo Ji a piece of news that he didn't want to know at all, that is, the stone axe and stone spear have already spread completely in this area. He didn't expect it to be so fast. The source is them. The Mirror Tribe, but the reason is definitely the tribe they drove away.
This situation represented that the combat effectiveness of the barbarians in this ancient era was on the rise, even though Luo Ji had already developed the sling, a powerful weapon, in order to continue to maintain his superiority in weapons and equipment.
But to be honest, the sling is not difficult to make at all, that is to say, after seeing it a few times, it is very likely that the other party will learn it...
Thinking of this, a surge of pressure arises spontaneously. For Luo Ji at this moment, the tribe on the periphery is not really a big threat. What makes him feel threatened is the whole situation, the advantage of his own weapons and equipment. After disappearing, can he maintain his winning streak?For this question, Luo Ji can only draw a question mark, because the weapon advantage is his biggest reliance right now!
"No, I have to create these weapons that the natives can't imitate in a short period of time, so as to maintain a long-term advantage..." With this thought in mind, Luo Ji's first thought was that he was temporarily thrown away because of his frustration in his research. bow and arrow to the side.
Compared with slings, bows and arrows are obviously more accurate and have a longer range. Moreover, slender arrows are much lighter to carry than the heavy basket of stone bullets, and will not affect the march. efficiency.
At the same time, the most important point is that bows and arrows are difficult to be learned by natives of other barbarian tribes in a short period of time. Although it looks simple, the workmanship and selection of materials are actually very particular, and it is definitely not something that can be learned by looking at it. , as long as he can successfully create a bow and arrow, it will be enough for Luo Ji to maintain his weapon advantage for a long time!
In addition, there is actually some research on armor. The animal skin that focuses on warmth obviously cannot be called armor. However, he will have to think about these things slowly later.
After signaling the scout to go back to his tent to rest first, Luo Ji called Luo Yong and Zhao Pan over, motioning them to pay attention to the location on the west side when arranging patrols, and clearly told them that there were other tribes there. The presence.
Hearing this, Luo Yong was eager to try, "Patriarch, do you want to do it?"
"No rush." Luo Ji waved his hand, "The more than 30 people we just captured haven't had time to arrange them. It's too unwise to fight this tribe now. Pay attention to them first and wait for a while. Well, as long as the other party doesn't cross the line and doesn't take the initiative to provoke us, just leave them alone, and pay attention to hiding the slingers, after all, it's a hole card, and that tribe will definitely have to fight in the future, one more hole card, Just one point more chance of winning."
Luo Ji's decision made Luo Yong a little depressed, but Zhao Pan, who also paid more attention to tactics and the overall situation, nodded understandingly.
"Okay, that's all I have to say, you guys continue to train." After watching Luo Yong and Zhao Pan leave, Luo Ji ran to the Ordnance Department again, motioning them to continue studying 'bow and arrow', and clicked I don't know if the first-level ordnance research and development can come in handy.
After returning to his tent, Luo Ji quickly pulled out a piece of animal skin, intending to ponder the issue of armor. The first thing that came to mind was obviously leather armor. Although they were wearing animal skins now, But it is a hundred and eight thousand miles away from leather armor, and there is no defense at all. If he remembers correctly, it seems that he has to undergo some hardening treatment...
Chapter 61. Personnel transfer
When it comes to things he doesn't know, Luo Ji has always followed the good style of asking if he doesn't understand. After all, there is an old driver in the friend column who can answer his questions. This is an advantage. ill?
He decisively sent a message to Gao Su, and asked about the treatment of leather armor and the encyclopedia of cabbage and garlic cultivation. This time, the other party's reply was not sent immediately, and Luo Ji was not in a hurry. While waiting for a reply, while drawing the design of the leather armor, there was a sudden movement outside the tent. Luo Ji headed out to take a look. The population is back.
There are priorities, and decisively put aside the drawing of the design first. The new people are a little noisy because of the scale and environment of the Mingjing tribe. Compared with the Mirror Tribe with natural wonders, abundant resources, and +1 habitability, the environment of their original tribe is really dwarfed.
Seeing the reactions of these newcomers, as the patriarch and leader of this tribe, Luo Ji was naturally full of a sense of accomplishment. After all, this tribe was run by him.
After a little hesitation in his heart, he asked someone to take the newcomers to the open space next to them to set up a tent camp, and he himself also seriously thought about the personnel transfer after the newcomers joined.
For these newcomers who have just joined in, there are actually very few jobs suitable for them. Generally, there are only two. One is to go to the logging team to help transport the wood, and the other is to go to the mine to mine. To put it bluntly, it is When coolies, too important work is not let them do.
However, the mines of the Heiyan tribe are not short of manpower for the time being. After all, the weather has begun to warm up, and the beginning of spring is just around the corner. During this period, the daily coal consumption is declining. According to the current productivity of the Heiyan tribe, after the spring, the daily After deducting the consumption of coal, it is estimated that we can hoard a lot. On Luo Ji's side, apart from heating and making a fire, there is no other place to use coal for the time being. It is obviously not meaningful to pile coal out in a short period of time.
In this way, Luo Ji intends to temporarily throw all the new recruits to the logging team to carry the lumber. Of course, if this happens, the logging team will be too many, so the original ones who have already reached [-] or more loyalty points. , Luo Ji plans to transfer them to other positions that are short of manpower.
The Ordnance Department obviously needs to add more staff. They are responsible for polishing weapons and studying bows and arrows. After a while, the production of leather armor will also fall to the Ordnance Department. Five people are obviously not enough. , So after Luo Ji thought about it for a while, he found five more people whose attributes met the standard to join the Ordnance Department.
At the same time, there is also a shortage of people in farming. After all, there are two more crops. After the spring, the task will definitely become heavy, and the fields will need to be ploughed a few more acres. As an important vegetable food supply department in the future, Luo Ji With a big wave of his hand, he directly transferred ten people over.
In contrast, the production of agricultural tools and some daily necessities must also keep up. In the past, the production of daily necessities was handed over to the women in the tribe, while the agricultural tools were handed over to the farmers themselves, after all, the manpower was limited.
Now that the manpower is a little more abundant, Luo Ji simply transferred three people and let these three people open a small department in the farming department to be responsible for the production and maintenance of agricultural tools. As for the rest, they all joined the construction team. Help with the construction of tribal fortifications.
After quickly arranging these people and sending people to inform them one by one, Luo Ji let out a long breath and just wanted to sit down by the fire to rest for a while when Gao Su's message came.
He hurriedly opened the message window. The first thing that caught his eye was a large piece of densely packed text. These were obviously the encyclopedia of garlic and cabbage cultivation. This was a bit of a read. Luo Ji planned to read it later. He is now What matters more is how the leather is made or treated.
After quickly pulling the message window for a while, I found it very quickly. Compared with the hugely read planting encyclopedia, the production and processing methods of this leather are concise and to the point. Such common-sense steps, how to harden the leather, thereby increasing the defense ability, this is the key point that Luo Ji wants to know.
"So that's the case, brush with resin?" Luo Ji, who rubbed his chin and quickly found the key content, suddenly realized. By the way, Gao Su also included a comprehensive method of obtaining resin. Want to say 'I really know this'.
The logging team has been cutting down trees for so long, can he not see the resin?Hardened leather needs resin, which just saves him trouble. He hurriedly ran to the logging team to remind him, and then temporarily transferred five people from the people responsible for transporting the wood to collect these resins.
The matter here has come to an end temporarily. It is estimated that it will take a while to collect enough resin. After that, the leather has to be processed and then hardened, and finally it is the turn to make leather armor.
After thinking about it for a while, Luo Ji suddenly felt that there was no need to rush the design of the leather armor.
To be honest, if possible, Luo Ji would really like to copy this content directly, then bind it into a book and send it to the farmers in the farming department, so that they can think about it for themselves. After all, for him who has never learned farming knowledge, These are really exhausting to read.
However, with the flash of this idea, Luo Ji was very sad to discover that there is no such thing as 'writing' in this era. Everyone is still stuck on verbal communication and drawing, and drawing should eventually lead to 'Oracle bone inscriptions'. The form of characters like this evolved, but Luo Ji didn't plan to go through the long process of character evolution at all.
"Speaking of which, writing should be regarded as cultural development, right?" He rubbed his eyebrows with a headache. He obviously realized the importance of writing. If this problem cannot be overcome, he feels that if things go on like this, it will definitely evolve into a major obstacle to the development of their entire civilization. The question is, an entire civilization is full of illiterate people?It's scary to think about.
He suddenly realized that cultural education should be done as early as possible, but the problem was that he had absolutely no experience in teaching literacy, and he didn't even know where to start. Plus the number of characters, Luo Ji's head started to start just thinking about it. It hurts.
Chapter 62. I feel like I can save it again
It took almost an entire afternoon for Luo Ji to finally digest the knowledge and organize the language. The next morning, he spent the morning teaching all the planting knowledge that he had digested and sorted out. farmers in the tribal farming sector.
On the farming side, there should be no need to worry in a short period of time, but Luo Ji still has a lot of things to do. For example, he has to keep an eye on the research and development of bows and arrows, the collection of resin, the construction of fortifications, and as the weather warms up, Mingjing Lake The frozen lake is also thawing. At that time, they will have to change their fishing methods a little. It is obviously too slow to fish slowly with a fishing rod. After all, fishing is just a leisure method, and fishing is about efficiency.
According to the idea, he intends to build a raft. At that time, even if the lake is thawed, the people of their tribe can bring fishing nets and take the raft to fish on the lake.
There is also the design of the leather armor. Although it is not urgent, it must be drawn slowly.
In addition, he should be worried about the tribe outside the woods on the west side. Yesterday, Rayong and others who were in charge of patrolling that area had a face-to-face with the barbarians of the other tribe. The other side obviously wanted to To enter the forest area to hunt, after all, these days, those wild animals are not stupid. Compared with the plain snow, they prefer to run in the woods. Therefore, for people of this era, the woods are a good place for hunting. .
But the problem is that the Jingjing tribe is on the other side of the woods. In this case, how could Rayong allow the other party to step into the woods area?Holding a double axe and wearing a wolf-bone mask, he directly stood there with several other wolf warriors. Those barbarians thought they had run into a ghost and ran away on the spot.
After hearing the report, Luo Ji didn't think that Luo Yong did anything wrong. According to his plan, he really did not plan to fight the opponent in a short time, but this was not because he couldn't fight, but because he wanted to develop steadily. If you really don't know each other, then you will fight, and you don't need to back down at all.
In order to avoid subsequent troubles, Luo Ji waved his hand and directly asked someone to set up a training camp in that area, so that all the wolf warriors were stationed there.
Originally, Luo Ji wanted to use that area to build a military barracks, but there were too many things more important than this for the time being. Therefore, the construction has not officially started yet. By the way, you can use that position to guard against the barbarian tribe outside, killing two birds with one stone.
At the end of another day, he huddled in his animal skin quilt. According to past experience, after a long day of exhaustion, he should soon fall asleep. However, today, for some unknown reason, he is inexplicably insomnia... …
"Can't sleep..." Looking at the tent above his head, Luo Ji frowned slightly, "I always feel like I forgot something, what did I forget?"
As he thought about it, as a memory that was a little long ago appeared in his mind, the expression on Luo Ji's face slowly changed, and finally...
"Aaaaaaaaaaaa!!!"
The screams that suddenly came from the patriarch's tent in the middle of the night shocked the person in charge of the night watch, and even the people in the other tents woke up.
The tribe warrior who mistakenly thought it was an enemy attack glanced at the tent subconsciously, but found that there was no one else except Luo Ji. Looking at Luo Ji's appearance at this time, the tribe warrior who rushed in was suddenly indifferent. I know how to describe it, "Patriarch, what happened?"
"Uh, no, I'm fine, you all go back to rest." Luo Ji waved his hands back to his senses, and told the tribe warriors who were awakened by his screams in a weak voice that didn't sound like he was okay. He's fine.
After waiting for the crowd to retreat and the tribe became quiet again, Luo Ji huddled together in the corner of the tent with a look of despair, "Hehehe, it's alright, I'm fine, I just forgot the university report and was late by the way. It's only been two or three months..."
The game called 'Real Life' suddenly collapsed, causing someone's spirit to get a little convulsed, "Hehehe, I gave up, I want to live forever in this different world..."
Maintaining this mentality of breaking the jar, Luo Ji retracted his bed, and after lying down for about ten minutes, the whole person suddenly tricked the corpse again. Just a moment?"
"But let's not talk about whether I can enroll or not, my recommended student quota and scholarship feel hanging." Thinking of this, the whole person has another stomachache.
Laughing miserably, they had already collapsed to such a point that Luo Ji was not in a hurry.The real world and the other world, the real world has collapsed, and the other world must at least be preserved!
With this in mind, Luo Ji opened the friend list and decisively sent a message, "Boss, if I quit the game now, what will happen to this other world?"
This time, Gao Su seems to be online, and the reply is quite fast, "This is more complicated to say, there are two modes to choose from, the first mode is that you can choose to stop the operation of the other world, which is equivalent to saving the game Same."
"However, in this mode, every day you stay in the real world, one thousand civilization points will be deducted. As the archiving fee, if it is less than one day, it will be counted as one day. After the points are deducted, you will be forced to go online. However, you are still in the newcomer protection period, the cost is halved, and you only need [-] points a day, and this mode is the safest."
"The second mode is to keep the other world running. Your tribesmen will not notice your departure, and they will continue to perform the tasks you assign to them. This mode is more efficient, even if you still Time flow rate can be selected."
"The default state is that one day has passed in the real world, and ten days have passed in the other world, which means that the time flow rate is 1:10. At this flow rate, the normal consumption per day is [-] civilization points. I personally recommend it. It is cheap and maintainable. Efficiency and risk are relatively low.”
"And when you are in the real world, if something unexpected happens in another world, the system will remind you in time, and this time flow rate is enough for you to react in time."
"If you adjust it faster, such as a hundred times, in this case, if there is a plague or some kind of disaster, when you receive the system prompt, your tribal civilization should almost be finished."
Luo Ji is not an idiot, and obviously quickly realized the risk of the flow of time, but the focus of his attention is not this, "Boss, you just said that the default state is 1:10, then I am in another world. During this period of time, hasn't it been a long time in the real world?!"
"By the way, you are a prospective college student, aren't you?"
The fact that Luo Ji was a prospective college student wasn't really a secret. He occasionally mentioned it in small talk, and when Luo Ji was about to ask Gao Su's question, he sent another message from the other party.
"Congratulations, you got the right answer, the time flow rate is 1:10, which is why every time you send a message, I am basically there, because for me in the real world, the interval between your messages is not bad at all. How many."
Seeing this news, Luo Ji's heartbeat accelerated, and a glimmer of hope suddenly appeared on his almost desperate face, but in the next second, Gao Su's news was sent again.
"But it's a pity, counting the time, the enrollment of universities all over the country just ended 1 minute ago, you really missed it perfectly."
"Pfft——" This old blood spurted out, the ups and downs of life are too fast, it's really exciting!
"Help me up, help me up, I feel like I can save me again!"
Chapter 63. Saving a Reality That's on the Brink
Maintaining the posture of sitting in front of his computer desk, Luo Ji looked at this familiar and unfamiliar room in front of him, inexplicably feeling as if from another world.
At the same time, the temperature change also made him feel obvious discomfort. His consciousness is still in the ice and snow, but the temperature of the space he is now is above 35 degrees. This twisted and subtle feeling really makes him feel uncomfortable. He felt sick.
Looking back at him, the broken fan in his room was still working there. This is an old antique in the true sense. Since Luo Ji's records, this fan has been there, in the words of his parents. , This fan is older than him, after so many years, it is not broken, it has been working tenaciously, and the market has not been able to buy it for a long time, the quality is really lacking.
In comparison, the computer in front of him was probably shut down long ago. After pressing the power button on the main box, Luo Ji was slightly relieved when he saw that the computer started up normally. If it is broken, it will add another cost.
At the same time, considering the lifespan of the old fan, Luo Ji didn't care about the heat in the room, so he quickly turned it off. As part of this family, after so many years, to be honest, he really has feelings for this fan. of.
"Mobile phone, mobile phone..." I glanced around the room, the mobile phone has been plugged into the bedside to charge, but it has been turned on, the screen is lit, and the number of missed calls is displayed as eleven, obviously from the university. Yes, Luo Ji didn't choose to call back immediately. The time is now three in the morning, because he struggled for a while when he chose to exit the mode. As a result, due to the time difference, the real world has reached this point. Now call back. In the past, it would only accelerate the collapse of his real life, and we can only talk about it tomorrow.
By the way, he finally chose the time flow rate of 1:10. Although the time stop option is safe, it is also very expensive. Is it possible that Mingjing Lake only provides [-] civilization points a day?And the time is suspended for one day at a thousand o'clock!Although the novice stage is discounted in half, and he also has income from other civilization points, he still can't use it decisively.
At the same time, after thinking about it for a while, Luo Ji has clearly realized that the main function of the time stop option is obviously to prevent other players from invading. After all, once the time stops, it is equivalent to you being completely offline. For online players, other players are naturally unable to invade him. In short, you can choose to avoid the risk of being invaded by other players at a higher cost, but considering this cost consumption, it is obviously not a long-term solution.
On the other hand, keep the time flowing and offline, which is actually a semi-online mode. In their game circle, it is 'hanging up'. Your game character hangs there and keeps the game running, even though you may not actually be there. You're playing a game, but doing something else, but other gamers can still hack you.
This is the difference between the two modes, but under this premise, Luo Ji actually has another advantage, that is, he is a newcomer!He has a six-month novice protection period in another world. During the novice protection period, other players cannot invade him, so for him now, it does not particularly need time to stop the mode.
Of course, considering that the development of tribal civilization in all aspects is not complete, it would be death to let time flow too fast. In case of a sudden outbreak of plague in the tribe, it will definitely cause the tribal civilization that he just developed to collapse in an instant. As recommended by the old driver Gao Su, the time flow rate of 1:10 is the safest at present.
He fell on the bed and fell asleep. Although he hadn't slept for a long time, Luo Ji, who forgot to turn on the fan after turning off the fan in the middle of the night, woke up early in the morning by the heat. What are you kidding?It's already the end of summer, why hasn't the damn temperature dropped at all?
I didn't stay in bed, it was too hot, I couldn't sleep at all, even if I lay still, I would sweat profusely, dragging my heavy body, and went to the bathroom to take a refreshing cold shower. The whole person was finally awake a little bit, exerting force. He patted his cheek, and now it's time to save his real life, which is on the verge of collapse!
