Chapter 81： god vine sleeps

Water power is one of the earliest natural powers utilized by human beings.

People only need to use the drop in water level to gain strong and continuous power to replace some boring and repetitive work.

Among the devices that use water power, the most typical ones are the waterwheels used for irrigation, the watermills used to grind grains, and the waterwheels used to mash various things.

Of course, although these instruments are relatively simple in structure, they have relatively high requirements on production tools and woodworking techniques.

But it doesn't matter, Jiang Xuan just wants to get a hydraulic device for pounding medicine. He only needs to make the most primitive and simple hydraulic pounding device.

After patiently pounding the medicine in the stone mortar, Jiang Xuan said to Chi Shao: "I suddenly thought of something that can automatically pound medicine. If you can make it well, you won't have to work so hard in the future."

Chi Shao asked curiously, "Really? What does it look like?"

Jiang Xuan picked up two wooden sticks and explained: "Look, we use thick wood as a beam, dig it into an empty bucket at one end, and attach a pestle to it at the other end."

"Then, I just need to put this log in the middle, and put the end with the bucket under the bamboo with running water."

"The water will fill the bucket, the wood at one end will sink, and the wood with the pestle at the other end will lift."

"When the water is automatically drained, the empty bucket rises, and the end with the wooden pestle falls on the stone mortar, and the medicine can be pounded."

This thing uses the simplest lever principle, replaces human power with water power, and can pound medicine day and night.

In fact, it's not just about pounding medicine. If you need it later, you can pound some grains and other things.

Chi Shao said: "It sounds good, what do you need me to do?"

Jiang Xuan smiled and said: "It's very simple, I can do it myself, you can do your job."

"Okay, let me know when you need help."

Jiang Xuan nodded, and then let Chi Shao go.

He left the bamboo forest and walked into the forest to the south of the tribe. After searching for a long time, he found a suitable big tree with a diameter about the size of a washbasin.

Afterwards, he found two tourists to come over, first used a stone knife to dig two holes on the left and right of the tree trunk close to the ground, and then put some red-hot charcoal in each.

Then let the tourists hold the reed tube and blow air on the charcoal continuously to help the charcoal burn quickly.

This is a common method used by tribesmen to cut down large trees.

Because the stone axe is very slow for small trees, it is extremely laborious to cut down large trees.

Using this method of blowing air to burn charcoal, you can burn through the heart of the big tree relatively quickly, and then chop it down a few times with a stone axe, and the big tree will fall down.

The two tourists, one after the other, blew desperately for a long time, and finally burned through the heart of the tree. Then Jiang Xuan wielded a stone axe and chopped down the hollow tree.

Next, he removed the excess parts of the tree and carried it back to Chishao's yard.

He first found a very thick dead wood, and cut a groove in the middle, which was used as a lever support point for the hydraulic mashing device.

Afterwards, he took the thickest end of the tree he cut back and burned it into a deep water tank.

When burning, he covered the sides of the tree trunk with wet mud, leaving the areas to be burned.

In this way, you can ensure that the rest of the tree will not be burned, and only the parts that need to be burned will be burned.

After the water tank was burned, he dug a small groove into the tree, put in charcoal, and blew it hard with a reed stick to burn out a large hole.

After that, he found a smaller trunk, cut it with a stone axe into the shape of a pestle, and inserted it into the hole of the big tree.

I found a lot of resin, heated it into a liquid in a clay pot, added the plant ash and stirred it evenly to make an adhesive, and then poured it into the hole where the wooden pestle and the big tree were connected, and firmly adhered the two together.

Finally, he put the big tree with the water tank and the wooden pestle on the stump for support, the end where the wooden pestle was longer and the end where the water tank was shorter.

After constant adjustment, Jiang Xuan found the most suitable support point, and then cut a groove at that position to engage with the groove of the support point, so that it would not be easily displaced.

Jiang Xuan moved the big stone that the red peony used to pound medicine again, and put the wooden pestle into the stone mortar.

Finally, he used a bamboo tube to connect the water to the top of the sink, and a primitive, simple hydraulic mashing device was completed!

"Crash..."

The water from the bamboo tube filled the sink, and gravity caused the sink to sink and the end with the wooden pestle to rise.

When the sink drops to a certain level, the water in it flows away naturally, the weight becomes lighter, the sink rises again, and the end of the wooden pestle falls heavily and smashes into the stone mortar.

"Boom! Boom! Boom..."

Every once in a while, the wooden pestle will knock on the stone mortar. If the device is not damaged and the water is kept flowing, it will keep knocking down day and night.

"Sister, what do you think of this hydraulic tamping device?"

After everything was done, Jiang Xuan took Chi Shao to watch his achievements with a smile on his face.

Chi Shao observed this device, and she was pleasantly surprised to find that it was indeed very practical.

The most important thing is that people need to rest, and this device does not need to rest, it can keep pounding medicines, and people only need to go and look at it from time to time.

Jiang Xuan picked up another sturdy wooden fork and said, "If you need it to stop, you only need to use this fork to prop up the front and prevent the sink from being filled with water."

Chi Shao exclaimed: "Xuan, you are so smart, you can always make some practical things."

Jiang Xuan smiled embarrassedly, these things are the crystallization of the wisdom of countless ancients in the world of the previous life, he just copied it.

From this day on, there will always be a very rhythmic percussion sound in the depths of the bamboo forest of the rattan tribe.

After a long time, everyone knows that it is the hydraulic medicine pounding device made by the leader that is pounding the medicine.

Everyone admired the ingenuity of the leader.

In the next period of time, Jiang Xuan led people to lay a lot of bamboo tubes that opened up the bamboo joints, and connected the stream to the front of all the bamboo houses.

In this way, it is very convenient for everyone to cook or wash things, and there is no need to run to the creek.

Days passed by.

"boom!"

In the early morning of March 15th, when the rising sun shone on the stone mountain, the huge ancient vines suddenly burst into endless green light, and the terrifying breath of life was overwhelming.

The entire Vine Tribe, including all the creatures in the forest near the Vine Tribe, felt a burst of heart palpitations at this moment.

"What happened to Fuji God?"

Jiang Xuan hurried to the front of the altar. At this time, a lot of people had gathered in front of the altar, and the red peony was standing in front.

Chi Shao's eyes were tightly closed, and there was a mysterious energy fluctuation on her body. Jiang Xuan knew that it was Wu Li.

After a long time, Chi Shao opened her eyes. She looked at the giant vine that wrapped around the stone mountain, and said excitedly: "The vine **** told me that it has absorbed the power of belief of the tribe and is about to break through!"

[Recommendation, Mimi reading and chasing books is really easy to use, download it here and you can try it. 】

"Going to break through?"

Jiang Xuan was also surprised when he heard this.

Judging from the current situation, the stronger the vine, the safer the tribe, and the stronger the warriors of the tribe.

He heard from the old witch that there are three kinds of totem gods, namely, small tribe totem gods, medium tribal totem gods, and large tribe totem gods.

The previous strength of this divine vine was equivalent to the realm of a small tribe totem god.

However, it is now on the verge of breaking through.

This also means that if all goes well, the Vine tribe will have a totem **** as powerful as the medium-sized tribe.

If those tribes whose totem gods no longer exist know of this situation, they will probably go mad with jealousy.

"However, the Vine God also told me that it will sleep for a period of time and accumulate more power. During this period of time, the Vine God will no longer be able to protect the tribe."

Chi Shao looked at Jiang Xuan and said, "While the Vine God is sleeping, we need to face the dangers from outside ourselves."

After Jiang Xuan heard this sentence, he suppressed his excitement a little and said, "You let the Vine God break through with peace of mind. During this time, we will try not to stay away from the tribe to ensure the safety of the tribe."

Now that summer is approaching, all kinds of food have become plentiful, and the vine tribe has relied on a river to grow vulgarly for a period of time, just waiting for the divine vine to break through.

Chi Shao nodded, then closed her eyes and conveyed Jiang Xuan's words to Shenteng.

"boom!"

Above the stone mountain, the vines burst into a more dazzling green light, and all the branches became crystal clear, as if carved from jasper.

The terrifying breath of life is in the mighty, near the vine tribe, many creatures are crawling on the ground, the body is constantly shaking, and the fear is extreme.

After a short time, the green divine light gradually became introverted, the branches of the giant vine returned to normal, and the terrifying aura slowly disappeared.

Chi Shao opened her eyes and said, "Shen Teng has begun to fall asleep."

Jiang Xuan let the crowd disperse and kept all the clansmen strictly confidential, even to tourists who had lived in the Veng tribe for a while.

After the crowd dispersed, Jiang Xuan's excited mood gradually calmed down.

He said to Chi Shao: "It's a good thing that the Vine God will break through, but now the old witch is gone, and the Vine God is asleep again. From today, we can only rely on ourselves."

Chi Shao nodded, feeling a heavy pressure.

"During this period of time, let's try our best to be cautious. As long as the Fujishen breaks through smoothly, everything will be fine."

The two discussed hunting again, and then returned to the bamboo house.

Jiang Xuan summoned all the vine tribe warriors and announced that starting today, the vine tribe will only hunt and gather in the nearby jungle, and will not go too far away for the time being to avoid causing some trouble.

At the same time, continued to make bamboo rafts and harpoons, and some warriors began to learn to swim and fish.

The warriors of the Vine tribe agreed one after another. Although it was a pity that they couldn’t go hunting in the distance, luckily the Vine tribe leaned on a river, and fishing was also very challenging.

After Jiang Xuan arranged these things, he took the loach and went to the forest on both sides of the tribe to check the magical plants planted before.

"Cage vines from cuttings have sprouted!"

Jiang Xuan came to the forest in the south of the tribe and was pleasantly surprised to find that most of the cage rattan branches that were cut in the previous two months had successfully taken root and sprouted, and only a few had died.

Sure enough, the vitality of vines is very tenacious, and cutting planting is also a feasible method.

This is good news, which means that the plant defense line constructed by Jiang Xuan has taken another step towards success.

"The pit of the whip tree has also grown seedlings."

Last year, Jiang Xuan picked a lot of the fruit of the whip tree. After eating the fruit of this magical plant, it can make people stronger.

After eating the leftover fruit pits, Jiang Xuan planted them in the predetermined range of plant defense line with the mentality of giving it a try.

Unexpectedly, the planting was successful.

Although these whip tree seedlings do not yet have terrifying attack power, when they grow into big trees after a few years, they can not only provide a lot of fruits to the vine tribe, but also protect the vine tribe with terrifying attack power.

Afterwards, Jiang Xuan went to the northern jungle of the tribe, where a row of head-biting flowers was planted. This kind of flower was very similar to a plant in a casual game that Jiang Xuan played in his previous life.

Every biting flower has a huge red flower.

Its color is very bright, and it is usually like other flowers. It is motionless. There is a lot of honey at the stamens, which exudes a strong fragrance, which will attract all kinds of insects and even small animals.

However, when these big bugs or small animals try to eat the honey, the flower will immediately turn into a **** mouth, killing and digesting these greedy eaters.

It is said that a tribesman once approached this giant flower and was bitten off his head, so he got such a fierce name.

This magical plant was also found by Jiang Xuan when he was out hunting. He transplanted some seedlings, and now they have basically survived.

Of course, not all magical plants have been successfully transplanted. Some magical plants that are more difficult to live may not adapt to the environment after transplanting, and will wither after a long time.

Peaceful days always pass quickly, and in the blink of an eye, half a month has passed.

At the beginning of April, the weather gradually warmed up.

Everything is growing wildly, and thunderstorms are frequent, which also means that the Southern Wilderness has begun to enter summer.

"Buzzing..."

In the Thunder Mountain in the south of the Teng tribe, a group of bird-billed mosquitoes was flying fast, and behind these bird-billed mosquitoes, there was a hunting team of the mosquito tribe.

After entering the summer, the bird-billed mosquito began to multiply rapidly, and both the number and the attack power were stronger than other seasons.

In the past year, the Mosquito Tribe has also completely established a firm foothold in the Great Swamp, and has also wiped out two relatively weak tribes, and its strength and population have grown rapidly.

The number of bird-billed mosquitoes surged, the number of tribal warriors surged, and everything in the mosquito tribe looked very good, which also prompted their ambitions to expand rapidly.

The Mosquito Tribe's range of activities has become larger and larger, and they have not forgotten the hunting team that was wiped out on the Vine Tribe's side.

Therefore, after a brief period of forbearance, they decided to come over to inquire about the situation of the Vine Tribe again. This time, they were determined to find out the details of the Vine Tribe and would not be easily deterred.

"Swish..."

In the woods, the hunting team of the Mosquito Tribe moved fast.

With bird-billed mosquitoes exploring the way ahead, they don't have to worry about sudden danger.

There are about 80 people in this hunting party, and the leader is Hua Mosquito, a powerful tricolor warrior, cunning and ferocious.

"We're approaching that tribe, we're all scattered, be careful."

After approaching the Veng tribe, the flower mosquito gave an order, and the more than eighty warriors dispersed one after another, and continued to sneak under the leadership of the bird-billed mosquito.
