Tuo Li nodded in agreement.

Because he found out that Chen Mo was not an armored beast, and saved him again, he was still a powerful fighter, so he was much less wary of Chen Mo.

"Let's go."

Chen Mo returned to the armor.

The cool armor made Tuoli's eyes shine.After recovering, Tuoli looked at the black beast corpse on the ground with some longing.In their community, black beasts are very precious, and being able to obtain the teeth of black beasts is the most powerful symbol.

In the tribe, only Jing Ge has the teeth of the black beast. Jing Ge singled out a black beast and killed the black beast. Jing Ge is also the most powerful warrior in the tribe.

Moreover, the fur and meat of the black beast are very precious. This black beast is enough for them to eat for a long time.

"Want?" Chen Mo pointed at Heihu's body.

"En." Tuo Li nodded without hesitation.

"Let's go."

Chen Mo grabbed Heihu's nape and asked Tuoli to lead the way towards his tribe.The black tiger, which was three meters tall and nearly six meters long, left long drag marks on the ground, and the soil was soaked in black blood.

On the way, Tuo Li was like a curious baby, constantly looking at the armor that wrapped Chen Mo. In his opinion, this armor was very cool.The more he saw how powerful the battle armor was, the more he admired Chen Mo, and he knew everything about Chen Mo's problems.

Chen Mo also took this opportunity to learn about the general situation of the Tuoli tribe.

There is a primitive tribe called the Manshan tribe. Tuoli's grandfather is the chief of the tribe, and most of the other men are warriors. The most powerful warrior is Jing Ge, who can single-handedly defeat the black tiger.

Tuo Li's ability was learned from Jing Ge. Although he is thin and small, he is not weak in speed and can easily shuttle through the jungle.

For about half an hour, Chen Mo dragged Heihu's body and followed Tuoli into the tribe's range.

A cave area with many wooden houses built in front of the cave, the whole area is surrounded by tree trunks more than ten meters high, and the bottom is piled up with thorns, like a small siege.

Chapter 788

"Tuo Li is back."

When the warriors of the tribe saw Tuoli coming back, they excitedly ran into the largest cave.Not long after, an old man led a group of people out, and when he saw Tuo Li, he ran over excitedly.

The old man who took the lead was Tuo Li's grandfather, Tuo Shan. His appearance was somewhat similar to Tuo Li's, with the same thin body and calm eyes, more like a wise man.

As soon as Tuo Shan saw Tuo Li, he hugged him excitedly, losing the calmness that an elder should have.The tribe found that Tuoli went hunting in the mountains. He was so anxious that he asked a few experienced tribesmen to look for it. Fortunately, he came back safe and sound.

"Is that a black beast?"

A voiceless exclamation shocked the audience, and the word 'Black Beast' shocked everyone.The people who came out noticed Chen Mo who came back with Tuo Li, and the prey dragging behind Chen Mo.

It is a black beast.

Seeing the black beast, all the warriors of the Manshan Tribe became tense, subconsciously clenched their javelins, and looked instinctively vigilant.

The fierce reputation of the black beast is well known in the tribe.Many warriors in the tribe entered the jungle and died under the claws of the black beast, which was a psychological shadow for everyone in the tribe. Now, a black beast that big appeared here.

"The black beast is dead, there is no danger." Seeing everyone's precautions, Tuo Li hastily explained.

There was another exclamation on the field.

When an adult black beast is hunted down, only one person in the tribe can do it, and that is Jing Ge, the strongest warrior in the tribe.

Everyone looked at the man standing next to Tuoshan.

About 1.7 meters tall, the muscles on his body are not explosive and ferocious, but sharp-edged like a knife, humanoid like Tuo Li, with reddish-purple skin, and the most conspicuous eyes are not ruby ​​red, but dark Red, much darker than the eyes of other tribesmen.His gaze was very cold, indifferent and cold, making people afraid to look at each other.

He is Jing Ge, the most powerful warrior in the tribe.His height and size are not eye-catching, but no one has ever dared to play against him.

Jing Ge glanced at Chen Mo who was wearing a battle armor, walked up to the black tiger, touched it, opened the wound on the back of the black beast's neck, and said coldly: "Dead for a while, one move is fatal."

"what?"

The humanoid crowd of the Horde was unbelievable.

How terrifying strength is needed to kill the black beast with one move, even Jing Ge is impossible.

They all knew about Tuoli's level. It was impossible to kill the black beast. The only possibility was the strange armored beast that came back with Tuoli.

"How did the black beast die?" Tuo Shan glanced at Chen Mo who was wearing a battle armor, and lowered his head to ask Tuo Li beside him.

"Killed by Mr. Mo."

Mr. Mo said that Chen Mo asked Tuo Li to call him that. Tuo Li told the story of his encounter with a black beast and his rescue by Chen Mo. His description was full of admiration for Chen Mo.

This kind of admiration, which he only realized when he mentioned Jing Ge in the past, became Chen Mo this time.

Hearing that Chen Mo caught the black beast and flew up, with a fatal move, some clansmen kept exclaiming, and their eyes changed when they looked at the strange 'iron armored beast'.One is gratitude to Chen Mo for saving Tuo Li, and the other is worship to the strong.

When Tuo Shan heard Tuo Li's description, his expression was dignified, from the nervousness at the beginning to the secret relief later.Tuo Li almost died at the mouth of the black beast just now, but luckily he was rescued.

"Thank you for saving Tuo Li. I am Tuo Shan, the patriarch of the Manshan tribe. From now on, you will be the most respected guest of our Manshan tribe." Tuoshan thanked Chen Mo.

The Manshan people in the tribe are all looking at Chen Mo, and Chen Mo is also looking at them.He didn't feel the malice of this tribe, maybe it was because he saved Tuoli.

Chen Mo couldn't understand Tuo Shan's thank you, but he understood what Tuo Shan meant when he translated it to him through Tuo Li's translator.

The battle armor was opened, and Chen Mo's body was exposed.

Surprised eyes fell on Chen Mo, and they realized that this was not an armored beast, but a life similar to them, only with different skin and eyes.

Jing Ge's cold face was a little astonished, he took another look at the battle armor, and then at Chen Mo.The two looked at each other, nodded slightly and then staggered away.

"You're welcome, patriarch, this black beast is my gift to you."

Chen Mo asked Tuo Li to act as an interpreter and began to communicate.

Ever since he came in, Chen Mo has been observing the situation of this tribe. From his observation, this Manshan tribe is not as uncivilized as he thought, but rather intelligent.

As the elder of the tribe, Tuoshan should have better knowledge than other tribesmen.

"Thank you."

Accepting the gift from the black beast, Tuo Shan saluted Chen Mo, and stretched out his hand to lead Chen Mo back to the biggest cave.

The cave is not small, more than 200 square meters, more like a meeting room or a lecture room. There is a long wooden table and several large wooden shelves in the cave. There are also animal furs and thick wooden books on the wooden shelves. Some text is recorded.

From the layout, it is a trace of civilization.

Most importantly, Chen Mo saw civilized machine parts and weapons on a shelf.

Evidence of civilization is everywhere.

There was another elder on the stone table in the cave, who was writing on the fur. He only put away the wooden book when he saw several people coming in.

"This is the wise man of our Manshan tribe, Mu Xie. He is the teacher responsible for teaching the tribe's characters and knowledge. This is Chen Mo, who saved Tuo Li's guest." Tuo Shan introduced Chen Mo's identity to Mu Xie.

When Mu Xie heard that Chen Mo had killed the black beast to save Tuo Li, the way he looked at Chen Mo had changed, and he was much more friendly.After the introduction, Mu Xie looked at Chen Mo carefully, and when he saw the armor on Chen Mo's body, his expression became excited.

"Are you wearing a machine?"

Mu Xie walked to Chen Mo's side, stroked the battle armor on Chen Mo's body, seemed to see some incredible treasure, moved very lightly, fearing that a little force would damage the battle armor, but his tone was very excited.

What is a machine?

Tuo Li, who was in charge of the translation, looked ignorant. After hesitating, he put the translator on for Mr. Mu Xie. It would be more convenient for him to communicate with Mr. Mo.

"A machine is a powerful tool built with knowledge and wisdom." Mu Kuo explained to Tuoli.

"It's a machine." Chen Mo nodded.

There are machine parts and weapons-like things in this cave. It is not unusual for Mu Xie to know about machines.

Mu Yao was surprised that the little thing next to his ear could make him understand Chen Mo's words, but he quickly forced himself to be calm: "Are you a visitor from outside the sky?"

"An alien visitor?"

This time, Tuo Li became curious with a serious face, and even the cold Jing Ge's cold eyes flashed a trace of curiosity.

"Yes."

It surprised him that a seemingly primitive tribal civilization actually knew about the aliens, but it was also a windfall, maybe he could figure out where this space was.

"Great." Mu Xie murmured, her body was trembling, which was caused by excitement.

"Have you seen visitors from beyond the sky?" Chen Mo asked.

If he wanted to leave, he had to figure out where he was now.

"I haven't seen it, but strictly speaking, we Manshan people are all descendants of visitors from outside the universe." Mu Kuo threw out a shocking news.

Chapter 789 Square Machine

After talking about the matter, Mu Xie sighed, but also felt nostalgic. The one with the same expression as him was the patriarch Tuoshan.

Mu Xie led Chen Mo to a large shelf, and lifted the animal skin wrapped on it. A laser launcher and a gun came into Chen Mo's eyes, which were made of metal.

"Sir, you should know what this is, right? This is a machine left by the ancestors of our Manshan tribe. It used to be a lot, but it was gradually lost. The machine on your body is the first time I have seen it. Mechanical, it is somewhat similar to the one described in the records of the ancestors."

Chen Mo asked the armor to scan and restore the structure of the 'weapon' left by the Manshan tribe. From the design point of view, it is different from the guns on the earth, but the function is similar. It is a gun, but it has no ammunition, and the small laser has no energy.

The level of this weapon is equivalent to the level of craftsmanship of earth civilization.

Seeing Chen Mo studying the machine carefully, Mu Kuo took off the translator and gave it to Tuo Shan, beckoning him to introduce it.

"This is actually related to the history of our ancestors, as well as the history of our Manshan people. According to records, our ancestors lived on a peaceful planet. Later, a disaster occurred on that planet and it was no longer suitable for habitation, so our ancestors began to plan to migrate. Migration There are many teams, and our ancestors are one of them, after more than 500 years of flight, they finally arrived on this planet."

Tuoshan sighed and continued to speak.

"Ancestors recorded that 700 years ago, during their migration, they encountered an accident in the sky. They called it a 'space vortex'. After our migrating team fell into the space vortex, we arrived here. The migration team of 200 million people, After 500 years and various disasters, there are only 5 people left here."

Tuo Shan's voice was a little low, as if he was flipping through an ancient history book.

Jing Ge and Tuo Li were attracted by him, and Chen Mo also listened carefully. He needed to find clues about this place from these histories.

"But the disaster did not end. The remaining 5 people were lucky enough to discover a planet. But when they arrived at this planet, they discovered that the environment here was different from the planet where their ancestors lived.

All weak scholars and intellectuals died, and only thousands of strictly trained fighters survived. That was the beginning of misfortune.Soldiers are not proficient in technology and knowledge, and there is a fault in the inheritance of cultural knowledge.At first, I wanted to rely on the spaceship’s machines to maintain the inheritance of knowledge. Later, the spaceship failed, because the technical requirements were high and I didn’t know how to maintain it, so it was completely scrapped. "

Chen Mo could imagine that situation.

A person from a planet with less gravity suddenly landed on a planet with five times the gravity, and the weak could not bear it at all.

When the number of people is small, there is a gap in cultural knowledge, which is very scary.

This means that their civilization is degrading.

"The ancestors realized that the crisis was coming. Without the support of technology, on this planet with a harsh living environment, they were weak and would go extinct sooner or later. The urgency of extinction forced the ancestors to use the only remaining technology to solve this problem. .

But what is more serious is that the surviving ancestors, after the women become pregnant, cannot bear the environment here, and may even endanger their lives. Even if the offspring are born, they are still dead babies.It is impossible to continue the race. "

"How did you solve this problem later?" Chen Mo asked curiously.

"The ancestors found some natives on this planet. The natives have low intelligence, but their bodies and characteristics are similar, and they are the same species. Finally, the ancestors compromised and combined with the native women, so we have the Manshan tribe. Inherited the intelligence of the ancestors And the physique of the indigenous ancestors, the intelligence is normal, and the physique can resist the living environment here.

The continuing crisis was resolved, and the population began to increase, but the knowledge gap became more and more serious.Technology faults, as the energy is exhausted, some machinery began to be scrapped, although the ancestors recorded all the knowledge they knew before they died.But it cannot change the situation that the loss of knowledge is getting more and more serious, and the loss of machinery is also intensified.

Up to 700 years now, after many disasters and migrations, the only knowledge preserved is the knowledge recorded by these ancestors on fur and wooden books. Fortunately, the inheritance of words has not been interrupted.Now we can only learn from these retained knowledge to understand the world, but the effect is limited. We all know a lot of esoteric knowledge and characters, but we cannot understand and interpret them. "

Tuoshan sighed uncontrollably and was burdened with heavy worries.

Jing Ge and Tuo Li stopped talking. Although Tuo Li was young, he could understand his grandfather's words.

"Those who have been screened out by this natural environment are all powerful fighters. Their ability to learn knowledge is not so strong, and the profound knowledge is getting less and less. The hard work of civilization condensed by the ancestors is being lost, so there is a fault situation today. Only What can be preserved is some basic truths and the truth of the world, at least to leave a little hope for future generations to rekindle civilization. If one day, these words and knowledge are lost, the crystallization of wisdom of our ancestors will completely perish."

Chen Mo understands that the fault of civilization is hard to bear. The painstaking efforts and knowledge of countless ancestors will eventually disappear due to the fault of civilization.Just like the Mayan civilization and other ancient civilizations on the earth, they encountered faults and eventually died out.

No wonder there are traces of mechanical civilization, the Manshan people are still using primitive cold weapons.

After hundreds of years of interstellar migration, all the personnel with advanced technology and energy technology died, and the machines were broken down due to malfunction.With only a few thousand people remaining, it is already admirable to be able to gain a firm foothold and multiply in such an extreme environment, continue to grow, and still retain the most basic knowledge and written inheritance of civilization.

"Did your ancestors tell you where this place is?" Chen Mo asked.

Chen Mo is a little confused now, he is just a lost traveler, he needs to find out where this place is.Tuoshan talked about the history of the Manshan tribe, but it didn't help Chen Mo understand the location of this space.

"No." Tuoshan shook his head.

"However, there is a very important thing that has been passed down." After hearing about Chen Mo's question, Mu Kui remembered an important item, hurried to a wooden cabinet, and carefully took out a fur-wrapped big box.

After taking the translator from Tuo Shan and putting it on, Mu Xie began to introduce it seriously.

"This is something that the ancestors told us to pass down. It is said that it records the materials of the ancestors' civilization, and there are many important materials that can be used when the civilization is revived in the future."

Mu Yao carefully opened the box.
