Origin

Although Wu Zhongyuan has expressed his position, Wu Huan is still angry, "This is really unreasonable. This matter must not be settled with them."

Wu Zhongyuan did not answer Wu Huan's words, stood up from his seat, and left the tent.

To say that he is not angry is to deceive himself. Jiang Zheng clearly knows that Black Widow and her group are here to seek refuge with him, and he still plots and plots against Black Widow. In essence, he is betraying his trust and benefiting himself at the expense of others.

But even when he was angry, he could also understand Jiang Zheng. What Jiang Zheng did was definitely wrong. Jiang Zheng himself must have known this. If it were normal times, Jiang Zheng might not have gone so far as to rob the Black Widow, but the previous relationship with the Bear Clan The Niu Clan used a hundred thousand troops in the war, and the loss of food and grass after several months of fighting must have been extremely serious. Now not only the Bear Clan is facing the dilemma of lack of food and rice, the Niu Clan is also facing the same problem. Jiang Zheng had no choice but to take this strategy. of.

"It is said that beating a dog to deceive the master. Although the black widow is an alien, since she is one of them who came to seek refuge with Da Wu, the Niu tribe clearly did not take Da Wu seriously." Wu Huan said loudly.

Seeing that Wu Huanyi was filled with anger and could not calm down, Wu Qin winked at him secretly. Jiang Dahua was beside him. Although Jiang Dahua was one of his own now, the Niu Clan was her old employer. Wu Huan scolded the Niu Clan, and Jiang Dahua felt that It must be awkward.

Wu Zhongyuan walked in the front, Wu Qin and Wu Huan followed closely, Jiang Dahua and the old doctor walked at the end, Wu Zhongyuan could hear Jiang Dahua's low conversation with the old doctor, Jiang Dahua was confirming whether the old doctor was wrong, and the old doctor The doctor replied in a low voice, "The three protrusions in the patient's Cun Guan Chi are indeed the aphrodisiac characteristics of Sanhua San." ’

Wu Huan had already shut up, but after hearing the conversation between the two, he couldn't help but speak again. Wu Zhongyuan frowned and turned back, shaking his head at him. Wu Huan understood and held back without speaking.

Not long ago, he helped Jiang Zheng regain the White Dragon Pill, and the Niu clan immediately made such a fuss. No one would feel comfortable. However, compared to being angry, Wu Zhongyuan was more worried. As the saying goes, Canglin is solid Knowing etiquette, having enough food and clothing, and knowing honor and disgrace, in modern terms means that the material base determines the superstructure. People can do anything without enough food, and all benevolence, justice, etiquette, wisdom, and trust will be forgotten. The top priority is still Develop farming and try to solve the problem of food and clothing for the tribesmen.

There are multiple braziers placed in the Black Widow's tent. The Black Widow lost too much blood and is still in a coma. The Flower Lady and several women are taking care of her.

Wu Zhongyuan tested the Black Widow's pulse and checked her meridians, and confirmed that the Black Widow was fine. He took out a Qi-tonifying elixir from his waist bag and handed it to Hua Niangzi, instructing Hua Niangzi to feed it to her.

Although the Black Widow is a strange creature, she takes the form of a woman. It would be inconvenient for a few grown men to stay in her tent, so after a brief visit, Wu Zhongyuan left the Black Widow's tent.

The flower lady followed and thanked everyone one by one.

"Sir, many of our people were killed and injured during the day. The remaining people can't take care of so many livestock. Could you please call people to drive the cattle, sheep and livestock away first?" Hua Niangzi said to Wu Zhongyuan.

When Wu Zhongyuan heard this, he turned to look at Lady Hua. Lady Hua added, "The cattle and sheep we presented were all carefully selected. It's just that the journey was too far and the fodder supply was insufficient. They were a little thinner due to hunger, but the number is still enough. Three thousand There are just a lot more heads.”

"Thank you very much." Wu Zhongyuan said. Black Widow had previously promised to give him 30,000 kilograms of bronze, 1,000 war horses, and 3,000 cattle and sheep. A large part of the team that was more than ten miles long was livestock.

Wu Zhongyuan turned to look at Jiang Dahua, "I will leave the cattle and sheep to you for grazing. Find someone to drive them away as soon as possible."

Hearing Wu Zhongyuan's words, Jiang Dahua looked at Wu Qin. Before she could speak, Wu Zhongyuan said again, "Black Widow also gave us a thousand war horses, thirty thousand kilograms of bronze, cattle and sheep for you, and the war horses belong to Wu Qin Dongyuan, and the bronze Let Li Wanzi smelt and forge the iron."

After hearing the words, the two nodded in agreement, each thanked the flower lady, and set off that night to return to the city to summon people to greet her.

After Wu Qin and Jiang Dahua left, Wu Zhongyuan ordered Wu Huan to rush back to Youxiong as soon as possible. He was worried about Wu Di and worried that if an accident occurred, she would not be able to control the situation, so he sent Wu Huan to assist.

After everyone left, Hua Niangzi presented the gift list. In fact, the gifts Black Widow prepared for him were far more than just copper, iron and livestock. There were many other things, including a large amount of jade and various rare treasures. The gift list was so long that Wu Zhongyuan could read ten lines at a glance. After reading it for a while, my eyes finally stopped at the last column of the gift list, a hundred pairs of rabbits.

"What is a rabbit?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.

Hua Niangzi replied, "Sir, this is a kind of rabbit from the Western Regions. It is larger than the mountain rabbit in the Middle Earth. It is easy to raise. It only feeds on wild grass. It can grow to seven or eight pounds in half a year. The mountain rabbit in the Middle Earth can grow to seven or eight pounds in half a year. They give birth to one litter per year, but rabbits can give birth to litters every month. Raising rabbits is much more cost-effective than raising cattle and sheep."

"This is a good thing. Take me to see it quickly." Wu Zhongyuan put away the gift list. As the saying goes, firewood and rice are expensive when you are not a family member. Now all he can think about is how to provide food and clothing for his people and prevent them from starving.

Under the leadership of Hua Niangzi, Wu Zhongyuan soon saw the hare on the gift list. The so-called hare is actually a modern carnivorous rabbit with black fur. At this time, mountain rabbits have not been domesticated, and there are no rabbits in China. Due to habit, even if you occasionally catch a live mountain rabbit, you won't be able to feed it. The hare is very temperamental and cannot be tamed.

Wu Zhongyuan was overjoyed to see these black-haired rabbits. These rabbits are closely related to mice and are both rodents. They can have a litter of seven or eight in a month. These 100 pairs of breeding rabbits are more expensive than the fox tribe's 100 days. The portion is large, and due to its rapid reproduction, it can be quickly popularized and can be raised by the elderly and children. The black widow's move is a real help in times of need.

Wu Qin and others have already left. Hua Niang is still injured. Wu Zhongyuan can only stay here to protect everyone. So many things have happened one after another. He is seriously exhausted both in physical strength and energy. In addition, he has not slept for several days. , returned to the tent and fell asleep.

Because I had something on my mind, I didn't sleep well. I woke up at the fifth watch and sent my thoughts to sense the location of Dasha and Huang Mao'er. After confirming that they had reached the bear, Dasha was sent back to continue to open the mountain.

Then he established a telepathy with the third master and ordered him to go to the big walled cities of the Bear Clan. The third master had met the purple energy masters of the Bear Clan in the morning meeting hall in Daqiu before. If there is urgent official business in the future, he can send the third master. I went directly to pass the news.

Just as he was about to walk out of the tent, Wu Lanqing walked in from outside under the leadership of Black Widow. Black Widow lost too much blood and her face was very pale. Its vitality was severely damaged, and it would not be possible to fully recover overnight.

He sent Wu Lanqing to Snowman Ridge to confirm whether Bai Qianshou really existed, and the news Wu Lanqing brought back was that there are indeed many huge caves in Snowman Ridge, but most of the caves have been abandoned, and only a few people live in them. There are a small number of white-haired giant apes, but they have no spiritual energy cultivation.

The news brought back by Wu Lanqing further confirmed that the incident was planned by the Niu tribe. It was the Niu tribe who found someone to pretend to be Bai Qianshou and instigated the thieves from Northern Xinjiang to go south to pursue Black Widow and others.

As for why the caves in Snowman Ridge were abandoned in large numbers, others didn't know the reason, but he knew that the snow monster had attacked Daqiu that day and was resisted bravely by Daqiu warriors. In the end, the snow monster suffered heavy casualties and returned defeated.

After rushing Wu Zhongyuan back to life, Wu Lanqing rode the bird back to Youxiong, and Wu Zhongyuan accompanied the convoy.

The Black Widow was very moved when Wu Zhongyuan led a crowd to come to the rescue yesterday. She didn't know that the purple energy masters of the Bear Clan just happened to get together.

Wu Zhongyuan did not take the opportunity to take credit, but explained the real situation to the black widow. After hearing Wu Zhongyuan's explanation, the black widow admired him more and more. To be fair, he was not a good person, but even a bad person would respect those who are open-minded. gentleman.

At noon, Jiang Dahua sent men and horses to meet the convoy in Yinma River, drove away the cattle and sheep, and took away ten pairs of rabbits.

At noon, Wu Qin led his people back, handed over the horses to the warriors and grooms to drive them away, kept his own convoy, and led the people in Yinmahe to the resettlement site.

Now that Wu Qin is back, Wu Zhongyuan can leave. There are still a lot of things waiting for him to deal with. After leaving the convoy, he first went to Jiumu and met Li Wanzi. He had to ask Li Wanzi to send someone to pick up what he had brought from Yinmahe. Thirty thousand kilograms of copper and iron. According to the current weight unit, thirty thousand kilograms is only fifteen tons. One truck can pull it. But at that time, there were only horse-drawn carriages, and they were all made of wooden wheels. Thirty thousand kilograms would require dozens of horse-drawn carriages. can be carried.

Li Wanzi already knew what happened to the Bear Clan. Wu Zhongyuan was appointed as the Great Wu. She was happy from the bottom of her heart, but she was more distressed. Not to mention her sharp ears and eyesight, even an ordinary person could tell that Wu Zhongyuan was overworked. , exhausted both physically and mentally.

Wu Zhongyuan told Li Wanzi to go to meet Tongtie and gave him the Wood Spirit Pill. Wu Zhongyuan wanted to drive Youxiong back, but Li Wanzi saw that he was disgraced and depressed, so he refused to let him go no matter what, insisting on keeping him here. Jiumu took a night's rest.

Wu Zhongyuan did not refuse Li Wanzi's offer to stay. He was indeed very tired, had too many things to worry about, and was severely exhausted.

After dinner, a shower, and went to bed early. When he got up early the next day, Li Wanzi had already prepared a change of clothes for him. Although he had been to Youxiong many times before, he did not go there as Da Wu. , Today is different from the past. You must dress up and face your tribe in the best condition.

This sleep was not in vain. After I woke up, my mind was much clearer. I remembered something again and plotted a route. I ordered Li Wanzi to send people to build a road to the east and cooperate with Dasha to open up the road to the Yiren City as soon as possible. Only by opening up the road Only through this road can the Yi people transport large crossbows. In addition, although the Yi people have the technology to make giant crossbows, they do not have enough metal. They must cooperate with Jiu Mu and Jiulian, who are good at smelting metal, to popularize giant crossbows on a large scale. Of course, the premise is to have enough metal. The current metal reserves are simply not enough, and we will have to find ways to mine and metallurgize in the future.

After leaving Jiumu, Wu Zhongyuan originally wanted to go north to catch the bear, but after traveling north for dozens of miles, he changed his route to the east, heading towards the border of the Yi people. He had to go see the progress of Dasha's work and tell the Yi people by the way. They don't know what Dasha is doing.

Facts have proved that his worries were unnecessary. The Yi people knew that Dasha was his mount. They guessed what Dasha was doing when Dasha opened a road in the mountains and sent a large number of tribesmen to assist. Dasha could only find a way out. This is the prototype of a road, and there is still a lot of later work to be done.

The road construction work was in charge of the Second City Lord Huang Youyun. Wu Zhongyuan made a brief stop, talked with her for a while, and told Huang Youyun that he had taken over the Bear Clan.

Huang Youyun was overjoyed when he heard this. Although they were originally optimistic about Wu Zhongyuan, they did not expect that he could take over Da Wu in such a short period of time. Wu Zhongyuan took over as Da Wu, and their backing became stronger and stronger.

Now that we have arrived here, we will go back to Xinyue Island by the way to make sure that the monkeys are not slacking off on their work and everything on the island is as usual, and then we turn around and return.

It gets dark early in winter, and by the time he rushes back to Youxiong after a long journey, it's already sunset. Looking down at Youxiong from high in the sky, he can't help but feel sad. He has been back for two years, but he has not truly returned until today...
