Steampunk City [Infrastructure]

Luo Zhan walked up to the city wall and looked out. Sure enough, people from the Eastern Region had arranged people at the entrances of each city gate.

Not only the hunting team could not bring back prey into the city, but also various other urban construction materials could not enter the city.

Fortunately, the castles and towns of all ethnic groups have been built, and there is not much demand for building materials for the time being.

However, food has become a problem.

The eleven tribes in the city need an astonishing amount of food every day.

Usually, for construction, there is not much meat in reserve. Luo Lan thought that within ten days at most, there would be a serious food shortage.

Luo Zhan beckoned to the sky, and an elf of the ancient Tongque clan flew down. Luo Zhan asked, "Did you see where Xie Xi went?"

The little elf nodded, "I took people out to help the hunting team break through, and I said that the people in the Eastern Region were scattered to various gates, as long as they brought the hunting team back to the city before they could reach each other's support, It can also bring back part of the prey."

Luo Li nodded, that's true. Cooperating with the Tongque Ancient Clan can see the advantages of the support situation in the Eastern Region from a high altitude, but the other party can't see which gate in the city to break through. If the cooperation is good, as long as the speed is fast enough, It can indeed bring back some prey.

That little energy hesitated to speak, "However, each city gate is guarded by the heroes of the land of the Eastern Region, and it is estimated that the fight will be extremely fierce every time."

Luo Zhan frowned. No one knows how strong the heroes of the land in the Eastern Region are.

Luo Zhan asked the direction of the leader, and then ran to check the situation.

When they ran to the city wall corresponding to the city gate, it was already dark outside.

In the sky, the eight evil eyes formed a straight line, one level after another, a total of eight levels.

Previously, Luo Zhan had only seen a single evil eye releasing rays.

Now the eight evil eyes are superimposed in a straight line, and the bright rays cannot even be called rays, it is a crimson beam of light.

If it is said that the rays in the past just cut the stone wall and could blast a big hole in the ground, now this beam of light may be able to shoot a hole in the mountain peak.

Luo Zhan swallowed a mouthful of saliva. The wildness is really primitive, but no one dares to ignore its unique scenery like a myth.

Soon the leader came back with people, and the hunting team brought back a lot of prey.

However, everyone's complexion did not look very good.

Luo Zhan thought something happened, so he went over to ask.

"Under the eight-eyed evil pupil of the evil spirit, there has never been a living person, but the hero of the land in the Eastern Region escaped just now."

Losing his reputation in the Northern Wilderness, the difference in reputation is all because his spells are invincible and unstoppable.

But for the first time someone escaped from his spell.

The strength of the heroes of the land in the Eastern Region is indeed worrying.

"Fortunately, we brought back some prey."

Luo Zhan looked at the prey, which seemed to be quite a lot, but it was still insignificant compared to the population of the city.

Luo Zhan said, "The ancient Huashu tribe can't go out to hunt now, and all tribes must support each other to bring back the prey. They can't hunt individually like before, so let's hand over the prey to the ancient Huashu tribe for unified distribution."

The various tribes did not have any opinions, and just as Luo Zhan said, now not any tribe can bring in the prey alone.

Now that the Huashu Ancient Clan has been assigned the task of managing the interior of the city, the collection and distribution of meat should of course be entrusted to them.

Shutao nodded, and asked the people of the ancient Huashu tribe to take over the brought back prey for unified collection and distribution.

Luo Zhan looked at the negative.

The bearer said, "By bringing back the prey bit by bit like this, although we won't starve to death, I'm afraid the lack of meat for all tribes will be unavoidable."

Gritting his teeth, the sparrow dwarf added, "there are more people in the Eastern Territory. They have been staying here. Even if it is not as urgent as us, they will still worry about food. We just need to guard the city and see who will die first." .”

It was a bit of a joke to say this.

If so, the days to come will be difficult.

Luo Zhan's eyes drooped slightly, and he didn't know what he was thinking. He had a small idea, like a flash of inspiration, and he still hasn't figured it out. He will think about it when he goes back.

The bearer took people to go on patrol, and people of all ethnic groups began to disperse.

Luo Zhan passed through the city gate, took a look outside the city gate, and unexpectedly saw people from the Eastern Territory standing guard not far away.

These people are really brave enough, obviously they fought so fiercely just now.

The city gate is now guarded by members of the Ancient Sacred Bone Tribe, and it can be regarded as an exclusive task for the city that their entire tribe has received.

Skeletons stood at the gate of the city one by one, well, Luo Zhan felt that their city was a little strange again.

Luo Zhan looked outside, and the weapons held by the people in the Eastern Territory did seem to be made of bronze, but they had to be checked to be sure.

Shutao, who was arranging the clansman to resist prey, glanced at him, "Are you interested in their weapons? Their weapons are a bit strange. They are not only as hard as stone spears, but also very sharp. If you are not careful, you will be pierced through the body. They took a lot of money."

Luo Zhi nodded, "Research is also good."

Shutao rolled his eyes, "I'll get you one."

Luo Zhan was taken aback, it's not good, there are so many people outside.

As a result, Shutao didn't go out at all, but a small soldier in the Eastern Region team outside started to walk into the city. When the Eastern Region team reacted, the soldier had already reached the gate of the city.

This……

Luo Zhan turned his head to look at Shutao, and saw the petal pattern in Shutao's eyes was constantly spinning, "It's just a small soldier, don't be surprised, as long as you stay in the city and don't go out, the illusion of my Huashu Ancient Clan will change." more powerful."

Luo Zhan: "..."

Seeing the frightened expression on the soldier's face, he just walked into the tunnel of the city gate alone.

He raised the bronze gun in his hand, pointed the sharp point at his throat, and stabbed it bit by bit.

His eyes were clearly frightened, but he couldn't stop himself from stabbing the bronze spear into his throat.

It looked downright weird.

The spells of the ancient Huashu tribe usually seem to have no offensive power, but they are actually very terrifying, especially when used on people who are not as strong as them, they can make the opponent fall into hallucinations and cannot extricate themselves, allowing them to control themselves.

The people in the Eastern Territory outside couldn't help but retreat a long way. To be honest, seeing myself stabbing myself with a weapon made me a little creepy.

When Shutao came back with the bronze gun, all the hairs on Luo Zhan's body stood up.

It must be very frightening to see yourself unable to control yourself.

Luo Zhan took over the bronze vessel that was still covered in blood, and he felt a little nervous in his heart, but he washed it and it was over.

When Luo Zhan returned with the washed bronze gun, the salmon was cooking rice, and the aroma could be smelled from afar.

"Today, when I went to get the meat for the bearer, it was much less than usual." Salmon whispered, "Aren't we going to be hungry again?"

He knew how painful it was to be hungry, so he was very worried. The salmon's head drooped at the thought of not being able to eat.

"Fortunately, we have rice, and we can be full with meat on top. It's just as delicious."

Luo Zhan: "..."

Indeed, there are only two of them in the Li nationality, and the rice alone is enough for them to eat for countless years.

But what about other tribes?

In the past, Luo Zhan might not have considered this issue, but the "sacrifice" of the ancient Huashu tribe also touched him a lot.

Without the Xiaojia where everyone came from, without this city, how could the Li people be safe at all.

The first thing to do is to keep this city, and to keep this city requires the unity of all ethnic groups.

Luo Zhe took a deep breath, "Salmon, you go to the general, and the heroes of the land from various tribes called me to eat here."

The civilization in the computer is bright and boundless. He doesn't need to hide the most basic rice. Only when this city prospers can the Li people have a better life.

Of course, the Li people provided rice and farming techniques, and he had to record it. This is a great contribution made by the Li people to this city.

When the salmon called the ten heroes, Luo Zhan cooked some more rice.

On the long table in the hall, each person has a bowl of rice, covered with meat.

When it comes to eating salmon, he is always very active. He uses chopsticks to scrape the meat and rice into his mouth. The warm food and the faint rice fragrance make him extremely satisfied.

The happiness of cooking people.

Others, except for Xiang Xi, who saw rice for the first time, were somewhat dazed.

Luo Zhan said, "Everyone may wish to try."

When everyone fed the food into their mouths, their eyes could not help but light up, and the aroma of food filled their entire mouths.

"What is this? It's surprisingly delicious."

"It doesn't look like...it's meat."

"It's quite full after eating."

Luo Zhan said, "In the time of our ancestors, meat was not the only food."

Everyone's eyes swiped over.

Luo Zhan put a bowl of millet on the table, "For example, this is also a staple food. Our ancestors got this kind of food through farming. They can support themselves and many people without going out to hunt."

"Isn't this a weed seed?"

"Can you feed yourself without going out hunting? And what is farming?"

The scene was a bit chaotic.

For tribes that have lived by hunting for generations and have no farming culture, it is indeed not clear at once.

Luo Zhan began to explain, "The rice you ate just now is actually the weed seeds in your mouth that were peeled and boiled with water..."

"As for farming, people from the Xietong Ancient Clan may be clearer. I planted these weed seeds in the ground. I only need such a small basket of such seeds, and I can harvest dozens of times the yield through cultivation. .”

Luo Zhan is not exaggerating at all, one seed can get a full ear of rice, not an increase of dozens of times.

Luo Zhan continued, "And such seeds have now piled up a whole warehouse."

Everyone reacted immediately.

Isn't it difficult for them to go hunting now?

If it is true as Luo Zhan said, wouldn't it be able to reduce their great burden, not to mention, the expansion of production year by year will help any of their tribes' food problems unimaginably.

No one is stupid, this is an eternal interest, and the impact on the tribe is unimaginable.

They also ate the "rice" just now, so they naturally knew that it was a good thing and could even be used as a staple food.

Only the bearer took a look at Luo Zhan, and secretly told him earlier that the amount of rice was very small, and he had to eat every now and then.

He didn't know that the rice was cooked from the hulls of these "weed seeds".

These "weed seeds" are so valuable, he figured out why Luo Zhan didn't want anything back then and had to find ways to get these weed seeds.

But Xie Xi didn't say much, in fact, he understood in his heart why Luo Zhan was willing to take out the "weed seeds" that were of great significance to the Li people at this time.

One is that the food crisis of the ten clans cannot be resolved, and the city cannot be defended.

Second, the Huashu Ancient Clan is willing to give up their most important things for this city. Those who were present at that time will probably never forget it for the rest of their lives. .

Luo Zhan said, "I can teach all ethnic groups to reclaim land to grow rice. Our city surrounded the entire Grand Canyon, and each tribe happened to have a lot of surplus land, which is enough for us to reclaim a lot of farmland for planting."

"But there is still a problem. It takes time to grow rice, and we still have to face the plight of lack of food before it can be planted."

Obviously it was a great thing, but the ancient tribes from various regions outside made them worry.

Luo Zhan gritted his teeth, "Actually, there is no solution."

"What do they lack now? They lack water. The people in the Eastern Region may be strong and united, and they can get water from the great river that reaches the sky, but what about the ancient tribes in the southern border and the western pole?"

"We just need to release the news and exchange water with them for meat. People in the Eastern Region may not pay attention to us, but people in Southern Border and West Pole who have been thirsty for so long can't be moved?"

Everyone: "..."

"Give our water to the enemy?"

Luo Zhan looked over, and the person who was talking was the earth hero of the blood clan. Luo Zhan said, "If we can get meat in exchange, the enemy is also providing us with meat."

"The people in the Eastern Territory should not allow others to do this."

There are indeed many problems with the method proposed by Luo Zhi.

Luo Zhan said, "Wouldn't it be better if they didn't allow it? Maybe the people from the Eastern Region fought with the people from the Southern Border and the West Pole first. Don't forget, the people from the Eastern Region drove out the overlords of the land last time, but they hurt a lot." I don't believe that the ancient people in other regions have no complaints about this."

"And, if you don't try it, how do you know that we can't get meat in exchange?"

Everyone: "..."

I'm afraid this situation is going to be completely chaotic.

But what about chaos?Could it be worse than attacking their city together from other regions?

So, a day later.

A very strange scene appeared at the guarded gate of the city.

Under the protection of the Ancient Sacred Bone Clan, the members of the Huashu Ancient Clan moved buckets of water under the city wall.

At first, the ancient tribes watching outside didn't know what happened.

Until someone "accidentally" poured clear water out of the bucket.

There was a commotion.

And the unfeeling voice of the Huashu Ancient Clan, "For water, a small jar of water is exchanged for a piece of meat. Bring your own container. This is all the water, and it will be gone after the exchange."
