Lords of War: Sinicized Dragonborn

Chapter 26, Which Comes First Tomorrow or Accident?
Then Emperor Li needs to take preventive measures in advance, widen and deepen the stream channel, and strengthen and raise the dam.

In addition to flood discharge, the construction of creek channels is also improving the way residents in the territory get water.

At that time, a reservoir will be built in the lower reaches of the creek, passing through the low-lying places in the territory.

In the future, the residents of the territory will not have to go to the river to fetch water.

Besides flood control and storage tanks, Emperor Li still wants to make a waterwheel more importantly.

The appearance of the waterwheel will bring earth-shaking changes to the territory.

If there is iron ore in the territory, iron smelting is inseparable.

Ironmaking is inseparable from the blower, and the blower can be driven by the water wheel.

If Emperor Li wanted to make iron, he needed to build a high-temperature furnace.

In addition to ironmaking, Emperor Li also needed to build a kiln to fire pottery, porcelain and other containers.

Moreover, the children brought by Emperor Li can also do such things as expanding the channel of the creek.

This thing is not like logging and building a house, it is pure manual labor.

The so-called widening of the creek channel is to move the pebbles scattered on both sides of the stream at the bottom of the stream to the sides of the stream and pile them up.

If you can’t move it, you don’t need to move it, just use the kind of pebbles or small stones that can be moved.

Build up the cobblestones, and use the silt, turf, and moss plants beside the stream to fix the stones on the outside of the piled embankment.

During the whole morning, Li Di taught the children how to speak, made bowls and chopsticks in his hands, and directed them to widen the creek and build stone dams.

At noon, Li Di rarely took the initiative to prepare food for the people in the territory.

For the native barbarians, if you usually cook, you always bake it.

Animal meat can be eaten after it is roasted.

Fish can be eaten even if it is grilled.

Can plant fruits and plant roots be eaten?
Let's bake it first...

In terms of the life skill of cooking, it seems that the indigenous barbarians only point out the roasting.

As I said before, Li Di wanted to treat them differently, hoping to improve the initiative of the indigenous barbarians in learning new knowledge.

But now, Emperor Li plans to change the way of cooking, so that the indigenous barbarians can experience food production methods other than barbecue and fish.

The box of unknown material that was peeled off from the treasure box monster.

Now it is only for the indigenous barbarians to realize that boiling water with it can help pregnant women in the tribe to give birth better, faster and more smoothly.

Then, it disappeared. The native barbarians never thought that they could use it for cooking.

After all, they had never seen this kind of container that could boil water before.

The only stone pot in the tribe is just a tool for storing water.

Drink raw water and eat barbecue every day.

When they are like this, after receiving the empirical method brought by Emperor Li, using a box to boil water can make the women of the tribe better have children, which has been personally verified to be effective.

What do you think they will do?
The indigenous women of these tribes directly put the box that can boil water.

It was deified on the spot, sublimated to the point where it could affect the survival of the tribe and ensure the reproduction of the tribe's women!
It is not used for normal use, but it is placed at home as a fetish for worship.

In the entire tribe, except for Li Di who could move the box, anyone who did not get permission from the old women of the tribe.

Want to touch the box?

They don't let you see the box, and you don't even know where they hide the box!
Even if Emperor Li wanted to use the treasure chest, he had to get it from the old lady of the tribe himself.

In addition to asking for the treasure box from the old woman of the tribe, Li Di also got the only item that obtained the taste of salt in the whole tribe from the old woman of the tribe.

A salt stone that resembles a pebble.

When the aboriginal men of the tribe need to add salt, they go to the old woman and lick the salt stones.

After licking, the salt and stone must be returned to the old woman of the tribe.

Well, it's very unhygienic, but the strange thing is that the aboriginal barbarians don't pay attention to hygiene, but the aboriginal barbarians don't get sick.

Uh, regarding this point, Li Di maintained his wait-and-see attitude. God knows whether it is true that he will not get sick, or those who get sick will die.

Take back the treasure chest, take the children, move the treasure chest to the side of the creek, and clean it well.

Li Di put the salt stone in his hand into the water and washed it well.

The treasure chest was half filled with water, and everyone carried it back to Lijiazhuang together.

Put it on the firepit in the wooden house, and burn the fire to stew the water.

No matter how big a treasure chest is, it has a limit range.

Half a meter high, eighty long and forty wide.

It's just such a big box, and I want to use it to make enough food for [-] or [-] people in the territory.

It is impossible to even think about it.

Even in the current territory, not counting the nine people who are away from home, the dozen or so official residents who stayed in the territory for construction, all of them are men with big bellies.

Based on the capacity of this box, it is estimated that it is enough to make enough food.

But it doesn't matter, anyway, Li Di didn't say that he planned to use this thing as a staple food.

And that treasure chest cover, Li Di did not let it go.

The indigenous barbarians of the tribe do not eat animal fat.

Fat and fatty meat are two different concepts, and the native barbarians still eat some fatty meat.

When roasting meat, it is roasted with fat, and roasted with fat, the taste will be better and more fragrant.

But the large chunks of pure fat and fat from animals were usually thrown away by the native barbarians.

After Li Di came, he saw that they didn't even want these big suet, so he collected them specially.

But now, the treasure chest lid is used as a frying pan, and the large pieces of animal fat are cut into small pieces with a dagger, thrown into the treasure chest lid, and the animal fat is boiled.

Because there is no extra container for fatty oil, Li Di can only cook as much fatty oil as he likes.

Cut the fish into large pieces, put it on the lid of the treasure box, fry it with hot oil, and then throw it into the treasure box that has been heated by the water beside it.

The large pieces of cut fish were thrown into the box by Li Di, and then some salt powder was scraped off the salt stone with a dagger, and then put on the fire and stewed.

When the fish meat is stewed, it is so stewed that it cannot be copied, the fish bones are stewed, and the fish soup is boiled into a milky white thick soup.

Then the original fish stew soup will be good.

Just when Emperor Li tasted the taste of fish soup, planning to amaze everyone in the territory for a while.

Accidents will always come quietly when you are unprepared, when you think this world is very beautiful and life is extremely happy...

In Li Di's territory, women's screams suddenly sounded, and the originally quiet and peaceful territory suddenly became noisy.

Li Di, who was still tasting the fish soup just now, saw two or three big girls from the tribe running towards Li Di, crying and screaming all the way.

After bumping into many children blocking the way, he finally came to Li Di.

Sweating profusely, with unconcealable fear in his eyes, he grabbed Li Di and dragged him in the direction they came from, crying loudly.

Seeing this situation, Li Di quickly realized that something happened in the territory.

At the moment, he could no longer care about his side, so the fish soup that was about to be stewed, pulled up his legs and followed the big girl of his tribe to run.

The disadvantage of being unable to communicate verbally is reflected at this time.

Until Emperor Li ran to the place where the tribal women gathered to weave hemp ropes, causing riots in the territory, he still didn't know what happened in his territory.

As the native barbarians saw Li Di's figure, they spontaneously made way for him to the central road.

Li Di went through the crowd, and when he came close, he saw four aboriginal women fell down in the field surrounded by the crowd.

Two grown women, a big girl, and a pregnant woman with a puffy belly...

The aboriginal women who fell to the ground seemed to be covered with a blue veil.

On the bare skin of the body, there are large patches of livid.

His whole body was twitching uncontrollably, foaming at the mouth...

Seeing this scene, Li Di immediately realized that they were probably poisoned.

It was not that on the way he came, another pregnant woman was about to give birth as he guessed.

After realizing that it was poisoning, Emperor Li hurriedly drove away the native barbarians who were still watching, and drove them to a safe and open area of ​​the territory.

Just at this time, Li Zhi, who was building a house at Longyan Pass, also heard the movement, and rushed over with Li Guan, Li Tian and others.

Seeing that Emperor Li was driving away the native barbarians, the three of them immediately took over the work of driving the native barbarians to the open space of the soldier altar from Li Di's hands with great eyes.

At this time, Li Di had the energy to turn around and deal with the poisoning of aboriginal women.

It cannot be said that Li Di's actions are unreasonable, but it can only be said that this is the only best way Li Di can do under the current situation.

Leaving aside the poisoning of the four tribal women, what Emperor Li needs to do immediately is to prevent the situation on the scene from deteriorating.

The four poisoned people have already been poisoned, and this matter cannot be changed.

But Li Di didn't hope that after he came to the scene for treatment, there would be a fifth person, a sixth person, or even more people who would be poisoned again.

It's just because I ignored the onlookers in order to save people in a hurry, and I was in danger without knowing the native barbarians.

Because of such unnecessary things, poisoning followed.

Therefore, it is very necessary to control the scene at the first time, and it is far more important than saving lives.

The native barbarians at the scene were disciplined by three people, Li Zhi.

Li Di turned around and took out his long spear with one hand, and began to cautiously approach the four poisoned tribal women.

It's not Li Di, who can't move quickly to save people.

It wasn't that he was deliberately delaying the best treatment time for the four tribal women.

Before knowing the reason why the four tribal women were poisoned.

Even Li Di, the war lord, would not dare to act recklessly.

Poisoning, that's no joke.

This is different from bruises, fractures and other injuries. If this was the case, Li Di would have rushed to save people.

Before knowing the cause of the poisoning, it is very necessary to be cautious.

After all, in the case of poisoning, it does not distinguish between people. It doesn't matter who you are or what your status is, the one who should be poisoned is still poisoning you.

He rushed forward to save people in a mess, and if he didn't make it right, Li Di would not be saving people, but would join in and add to the chaos.

The information that has been analyzed from the scene is that the four indigenous women seem to have been poisoned, and their bodies have a stress response.

And on this barren continent, Li Di could eliminate man-made toxins, and he didn't find any smog and miasma in his sight range.

Then, there are only two reasons left to cause poisoning.

Plant poisoning, poison gnaws.

And these two situations, no matter which one they are, are fatal dangers that cannot be underestimated.
