Chapter 220 Jungle ([-])

Passing through a pile of rocks, people finally saw what it looked like. It was a tall stone statue. This stone sculpture was dealt with under the pile of rocks. The part outside the surface also has a height of nearly three or four meters.

There may have been some paint on its surface, but with the passage of time, only sporadic colors can be seen now.

Even after an unknown amount of time, people can vaguely recognize the appearance of this stone sculpture.

This is a dinosaur that has never been seen before, and it can be judged from its teeth that it is a herbivorous dinosaur.

"Lang, what is this? How did it appear here?" Lin Huo looked at the huge stone sculpture in horror and asked suspiciously.

Wang Lang shook his head and observed it carefully.

Others are obviously also very interested in this thing, but due to their duties, they can only scatter around the stone carving and keep vigilant.

Wang Lang frowned. The appearance of this stone sculpture proves that the civilization that once appeared here has already had extremely advanced carving techniques. It is impossible for primitive people to make such a large stone sculpture.

Looking at the ruins of the city, Wang Lang couldn't help asking himself: "What happened here? This civilization seems to have disappeared overnight. Does the bronze handicraft that appeared in the copper mine have anything to do with this civilization?"

With the appearance of various relics about this unknown civilization, Wang Lang became more and more curious about it, but Wang Lang is not an archaeologist, so he can't tell how many years it has been here, but judging from the degree of weathering of the stones, his conservative It is speculated that this civilization has disappeared for at least a thousand years.

The sky was getting dark, and the expedition team rested under a well-preserved city wall.

"Boss, have humans ever lived here?" Kong Yi asked.

Wang Lang shook his head and said, "I don't know, but it doesn't matter to us whether there were people living here. They have disappeared. From now on, this place will be called the Lost City. Let's come here to explore again if we have a chance!"

Although this lost city is very mysterious, for everyone, what they are most concerned about at present is when they can return to the tribe.

After a night's rest, the expedition continued.

Half a day later, when everyone passed by a waterfall, they made a new discovery.

"Lang, there are actually tin ore here." Lin Huo said in surprise.

Wang Lang looked at the stones in the river that shone with metallic luster, and he could hardly close his mouth from ear to ear. These exposed tin ores proved that the production here would definitely not be less.

"It seems that we really have an unexpected harvest this time. Remember the location here, and we will not fall behind when we get back. We will immediately send people to mine." Wang Lang said excitedly.

People have known for a long time that the hardness and sharpness of copper added with tin is far inferior to that of pure copper. At present, the only bronze weapons of the tribe are Wang Lang's short sword and the dagger in Jian Ya's hand.

But now that these tins have been discovered, Lin Huo and the two of them certainly know what it means.

Thinking of having a bronze weapon of their own in the future, the two blushed with excitement.

Although tin mines were discovered, people couldn't start mining now. Everyone just randomly picked up a small piece of tin ore nearby, took it with them, and continued heading northeast.

After walking north for a day, the expedition team finally walked out of the jungle and saw the grassland that they were very familiar with.

"We finally came out!" Lin Huo said excitedly.

"Boss, where should we go this time?" Kong Yi asked.

Wang Lang looked at the direction, and then said: "Go north, we should be able to return to the tribe as long as we walk along the edge of the forest."

Walking out of the jungle greatly boosted the morale of the members of the expedition team. This adventure was of great significance to them. As long as they return to the tribe, everyone can make a note of merit, even if they cannot immediately sit on an equal footing with the elders of the tribe. , but at least one name is in hand.

A day later, the expedition finally saw the familiar lake.

At this moment on the lake, there are several huge rafts standing quietly in the middle of the lake, and it can be vaguely seen that there are people moving on the rafts.

Bark, who was directing the fishing, was shocked when he saw an unknown team appearing in the south. He didn't care about the harvest this time, so he quickly got someone to draw the net and paddled the raft towards the shore.

When the raft gradually approached the shore, after seeing that the team was Wang Lang and the others, Shupi immediately relaxed from his tense nerves.

Before the raft touched the shore, the bark was picked off from the raft and quickly walked towards Wang Lang.

"Boss, you are finally back." Bark said happily.

"Why, did something happen in the tribe?" Wang Lang asked.

Bark shook his head and said, "It's nothing serious, but everyone is very worried about you."

Wang Lang nodded and said: "Let's go, this time the harvest is not small, let's talk about it when we go back, the soldiers are exhausted."

Bark smiled, and quickly asked his subordinates to take the things brought back by the expedition team, and everyone returned to the tribe together.

The return of the expedition team brought life to the lifeless tribe.

Curious people asked the soldiers returning from the expedition what they had seen and heard along the way.

Wang Lang summoned the big and small leaders and got together for a meeting.

"This expedition can be said to be very successful. In the future, our development goal will turn to this jungle." Wang Lang said slowly.

"Boss, what about our training?" Kong Yi asked.

"Let's put aside the training. The current level of the soldiers is enough to deal with a war. Our most urgent task is to develop this jungle." Wang Lang said.

"Boss, do we really need to build roads?" Kong Yi asked.

Wang Lang nodded and said, "Roads must be built. Without roads, we can't use those fruits and tin ore at all."

"Then which road should we build first?" Lin Huo asked.

Wang Lang thought for a while and said, "I decided to send half of the people to the tin mine from tomorrow. First, I will use the back baskets to transport the tin ore back. After preparing enough tools, I will build the two roads at the same time."

After discussing for a while, the others agreed with Wang Lang's approach. As long as all the tools were made of bronze, the efficiency of felling trees would be greatly increased many times. It is not impossible to build two roads at the same time.

"Since you have no objections, you go and tell your soldiers to choose the right manpower, and Linhuo will lead the team to collect tin ore tomorrow." Wang Lang said solemnly.

"Of order!" Everyone responded in unison.
