Ah Shu helped the priest to go back to rest. There are not many people left in the tribe. Except for the brick burners and the guards of the tribe, everyone else went to build roads. Dare to eat sweet potatoes and root leaves.

Unexpectedly, their luck was extremely bad. They happened to meet Su Yao who was observing the growth of potatoes in the field. At first, the wild pigs didn't pay attention to Su Yao. The leader of the wild pigs bared his fangs and was about to bump into Su Yao , and was killed by Su Yao.

The herd of wild pigs without a leader was stunned. After regaining consciousness, they hurriedly fled into the mountains with their tails between their legs. Su Yao simply waved his hand and killed a few more pigs. He was going to let the people in the tribe pack them up and give them to those who built the roads to improve their food. go.

As the priest said, there is no need to worry about the salt issue, there is plenty of time, and the most important thing now is to get through the road to the iron mine before the arrival of summer.

Thousands of people worked together. Seeing that the road was about to be repaired, they encountered a big problem at a critical moment.

Su Yao chose to build the mountain road by the side of the river because the river is wide, and when encountering unsolvable problems, he can change the road and have a larger choice.

But just at a corner, a group of people dug up the soil above, and when they went down with a hoe, they broke their handles.It was only then that a huge stone appeared under the soil, blocking the middle of the road.

This stone is like a wolf's mouth. When it is placed sideways, the position of the diversion is firmly stuck, leaving only the river channel about ten meters away from the very edge.

According to the current situation, this road can be built in the river, but the width left for the river to pass is not enough. In addition, there is a bend in the river. After the river flow increases, the river will not be able to pass water. The water must be rushing up the road.

At that time, only this section of the road will be washed away. If there is a flash flood that causes the river to change its course and hit the mountain wall indiscriminately, causing the mountain to collapse, maybe even the built mountain roads will be completely washed away.

The group ran out of ideas, so they had to send a fast-running guy to speed up to invite Zhong Li, who was the supervisor of the second team.

Just waiting for Zhongli, Su Yao and a group of people came from behind carrying meat and vegetables.

Chu Shan, who was in charge of repairing this section of the road, saw Su Yao and became as excited as if he saw his own mother: "My lord envoy, come and take a look, this stone is really unreasonable."

Su Yao knew what was going on at a glance. No wonder Chu Shan said that the stone was unreasonable. The stone is bluestone, hard and smooth, not easy to break, and it is also one of the most difficult to weather in nature.

However, the rocks that came along this way were all slate, which looked quite big, and when they were smashed with a big hammer, they would be separated one by one like tiles. The slate could be used for paving roads and was also convenient for them to carry.

Everyone is not afraid when they encounter slate rocks, and the road can always be dug with a little more effort.

But this big bluestone is different. The inner structure of the big bluestone is very tight, and the outside is smooth and hard. When the big hammer hits it, a small spark is produced. The strong and strong man swung the hammer with all his strength. A little bluish white skin, but the strong man's hands are numb.

Chu Shan looked at Su Yao pitifully, and now they can only hope that God Envoy can come up with a good solution.

"Don't worry." Su Yao pointed to the fresh pork in the basket: "Leave two loads for your team, and let them send the rest to the second and third teams."

There are two types of carts for pulling meat: wooden frame carts and wheelbarrows. The wooden frame carts are more convenient to run on the repaired road. There is still a section of road on the way to the second and third teams that has not been built, so they can only be delivered by wheelbarrows. .

"Is there any meat to eat? Thank you, Master Angel." Chu Shan then turned his attention to the basket at the back, and his eyes lit up when he saw the full meat: "Aunt Zhuang, hurry up and ask someone to pick the meat. The God Envoy sent us meat."

The people resting around heard Chu Shan's shouts and ran over to watch. They had to build roads during the day, so they could only set a few traps in the woods at night, and then wait until dawn to see if they caught prey in the traps.

It's a pity that when they built the road, there were too many people and there was a lot of noise. Big animals like wild pigs and sheep didn't come here. All they caught were grunts, wild rabbits and other small prey. Meaty, but not fun at all.

"Here we come." Auntie Zhuang is a woman in charge of cooking. She is tall and strong and looks capable: "It happens that we found a lot of spicy vegetables and mustard greens in the mountains, and I will cook a pot of spicy meat for you." film to eat."

"Good good good good good good." Everyone shouted: "Aunt Zhuang's cooking skills are nothing to say, the sliced ​​meat you stir-fry is the best."

Since the food in the tribe is abundant, people are very keen to spend their time on food. In addition, clay pots are more convenient to use than stone pots, and they are more energetic in cooking.

Aunt Zhuang is a leader in cooking, not only with quick hands and feet, but also with ingenious thoughts, and the meals she cooks are very popular with everyone.

More than a dozen women were busy beside the simple pot and stove, and the slaves quickly took the meat brought by Su Yao to the river to clean it and cut it into slices.

The Huangping tribe is used to skinning wild pigs, so they don't need to roast the fur when cleaning, and it doesn't take much time.

These people are so busy that they can't stay idle. After a short rest, they go to the mountains together. Although there won't be too many prey in the woods in this season, they won't let people go home empty-handed. Wild vegetables are guaranteed. And edible twigs and leaves are indispensable, and you can fill your stomach after scalding them in the soup.

Su Yao walked around the big bluestone, stretched out his hand to test the spiritual power underground, and found that most of the stone was still buried in the mountain, and less than one percent of it was exposed.

Moreover, the position of this stone is very clever. Its largest part is pressed by the mountain, and the mountain is steep. Without the support of this stone, it is likely to collapse or even cause a landslide.

At that time, the collapsed soil will completely block the entire river and cause more trouble.

Just watching, Zhong Li also rushed over, his whole body was slightly gloomy and cold, giving people a feeling that he was not easy to get in touch with.It's just that the sense of alienation dissipated invisible the moment he saw Su Yao.

"Ah Yao." Zhong Li smiled gently: "Have you eaten at noon?"

Su Yao couldn't help but relax: "I haven't eaten yet, it's boring to eat alone."

Zhong Li's eyes lit up, but seeing Su Yao's calm expression, he knew that what he said was just expressing the truth, without the lingering meaning he thought.

"I'll make it for you later." Zhong Li secretly told himself not to be impatient, but to take his time.

"it is good."

After getting a response, Zhong Li turned around to ask Aunt Zhuang for a clay pot.

With his back to Su Yao, he didn't notice the slightly raised corners of Su Yao's lips and the smile in his peach blossom eyes.

Su Yao is not stupid, he is just a little slow in emotion.When he didn't understand Zhongli's relationship before, he didn't understand what Zhongli's behavior meant. Now that the two have made their relationship clear, he still knows Zhongli's behavior well.

’ But he was kind of funny, goofy. ' Su Yao touched his fingers subconsciously, unable to restrain the evil taste in his heart.

Lunch was settled amidst the noise of the crowd. The small fish soup stewed by Zhongli was very delicious. Su Yao drank most of the pot in one go, served with roasted browned pork belly and lettuce, and was satisfied.

After everyone finished eating, Su Yao told them to stay far away, and no one could stay in the vicinity except him and Zhongli.

There is currently no way to solve this stone by manpower, so we can only use non-manpower methods to solve it.Su Yao gathered spiritual power in his hands and continuously compressed it into the shape of a long sword.

It would be quite simple if you just smashed this stone, and it can be solved with a few formulas.

But now, if we want to cut off the horizontal section of stone while keeping the main body of the stone, we need to use more fine-grained control.

The great sword of spiritual power gradually grew in Su Yao's hands, and gradually pressed against the exposed boulder under his control.

The people hiding in the ravine heard a faint rumble, and hurriedly stepped back a little to hide themselves deeper.

With one strike of the sword, the part of the boulder protruding from the soil was cut into two vertically. This was not enough, the part buried under the soil was at least 20 meters deep, and Su Yao didn't want to touch that part either.

The sword of spiritual power once again condensed in the palm, this time cutting horizontally towards the place one meter below the soil layer, dust filled the river, and the stone made a rumbling sound again.

I saw that part of the stone blocking the road was cut horizontally and vertically like a tofu, leaving a gap just wide enough for road construction.

"Okay." Su Yao waved his hand, and Zhong Li immediately stepped forward and grabbed his wrist to pass the spiritual power in his body.

"Fortunately, I have reached the fourth level of Qi training, otherwise I really can't do anything with these stones."

Zhongli didn't speak, the gloomyness in his eyes was like a cloud of black ink, he wanted to replace Su Yao but his cultivation could not keep up, so he had to try his best to suppress his irritable mood.

As if sensing something was wrong, Su Yao stretched out his hand and poked Zhongli's face: "Don't think about it, the most taboo in cultivation is to make a fool of yourself. If you go crazy because of your own paranoia, then I don't want you."

Zhongli hugged him tightly, and pressed his cheek against Su Yao's warm neck. He felt the delicate and vivid touch before he breathed out softly: "I just don't want to make you tired."

Su Yao squinted at him: "That's not what you said when you pressed against me and insisted on sticking to me."

Zhongli suffers from severe skin hunger and thirst, and loves hugs and close touches.After meeting Su Yao, the symptoms gradually eased, but Zhongli had already formed a habit, and when they slept together, they always had to stick together.

Zhong Li smiled embarrassedly, and dimples appeared on his face.

Su Yao poked the dimple hard and pushed the person away: "Hurry up and get through this road. There is not much salt in the tribe. We have to find a way to get some salt back from other places."

The cut stones were steadily moved aside by the crowd with long ropes. Looking at the neat cuts on the stones, they were speechless except for shock and awe. They could only bury their heads and work hard to get through the mountain road as soon as possible.

As the temperature is getting higher and higher, the flowers in the forest have passed the most luxuriant flowering period. The road to the iron mine was finally opened with the joint efforts of the three teams. After that, the time from the tribe to the iron mine It only takes three days.

The ox cart pulled the elderly priest around the iron mine, and the more than 300 slave households were divided into three villages and stationed on the way to the iron mine.

Su Zai is actually a black belly, hehe!
