Wolf King

Chapter 165 The Horde Needs Your Face

Evelyn returned to the tribe with a heavy heart, sent the shivering flying mount to the warm ewe delivery room for placement, and then ran to the mobile room to find Ayun. Just when she entered the door, she was shocked.

The adventurers returned to Valentine with the parchment scroll that threatened Lamia, and the outer compartment of the mobile home became a play place for the cubs again.When Evelyn entered the door, on the carpet in the outer compartment, the eight-year-old cub Moss and two other cubs under the age of ten, Qingcao's daughter, were happily playing.

The point is that the toy these four wolf children played with was a transparent crystal ball with a diameter of about [-] centimeters, and inside the ball was a miniature green-skinned pot-bellied dragon the size of a bat.

Following the biting and bashing of the four bear children, the pocket green dragon rolled and twirled upside down in the sphere, screaming incessantly...

Evelyn: "..."

Evelyn raised her hand and rubbed her eyes, then looked intently again.

She had no eyesight, she was gnawed by the grassy cubs to the point of drooling, was snatched by the moss and threw it to another cub, and was so anxious that the grassy cubs chased her back and forth...it was indeed a sealed crystal ball.

In this sealed crystal ball, there is indeed a green dragon imprisoned.

"...Mr. Ayun can't stand Balk at last?" This was Evelyn's first thought, "Or did Balk make a big mistake?" This was the second thought.

Immediately, Evelyn cheered up, bypassing the playing wolf cubs and went straight to the inner room, Xiao Yun's room.

"...The engineering team and the dwarves are using the pressurized water pumping device. We know the principle very well. The piston moving up and down sucks the air from the pipe below to form a vacuum, and the water will be pumped up under the action of air pressure. In theory, it has some similarities with the pneumatic motor. But when pumping water, the water has a sealing effect, even if the seal of the one-way valve is not in place, it will not affect its operation. For the pneumatic motor, the place where the cylinder structure requires sealing is absolutely Can't miss it... eh? Evelyn is back?" Xiao Yun showed surprise, "What are you doing kneeling on the ground, are you tired?"

Frustrated Evelyn bent forward: "... OTZ"

"Ayun, do you mean that these two places must be sealed?" Balk, who found the new toy, ignored Evelyn and asked enthusiastically, pointing to the drawing.

"That's necessary. Except for the exhaust outlet, other places are specified not to leak air."

"Well—I'll adjust the structure later." Sean touched his chin and said.

"Try to find out which structures are unreasonably designed first, trial and error first." Xiao Yun nodded, "However, we must pay attention to the output of Qi, and don't mess around like before. The materials simulated by the material mimicry magic are based on our current The manufacturing level cannot be completely replicated, and the ductility and adaptability of existing materials must be taken into consideration.” Naturally waved at Evelyn, “Evelyn, come and take a look at the pneumatic motor we are trial-producing, your applied magic If the research team can find better materials, Mr. Xiao En will save more effort."

"...Okay." Evelyn wiped her face and stood up firmly.

Sean and Balk are not the only ones interested in artificial machines that can generate kinetic energy on their own. Evelyn's eyes lit up after she understood the design principles and applications of pneumatic machines. Participated in the discussion, and put forward practical opinions on the design of the connection between the combustion boiler and the cylinder, and she also has her own views on the lightweight of the boiler.

The three and a half scientific research directors (Balke counts as half) discussed and argued head to head for almost an hour. At the end of the lunch break, Balke picked up his father's crystal ball and rushed back to work in the flour mill; Mr. Sean continued Using material mimicry magic to figure out the structure of the cylinder; Evelyn didn't mention anything about Gwendoline, and excitedly called the cat clan magic apprentices to the laboratory to study materials.

Xiao Yun is very satisfied with Evelyn's positive energy... The love for mechanical creations has never been divided into genders. To say that women are not interested in the mechanical industry is actually the same as saying that women are not good at arts and sciences before modern times, and they are only good at housekeeping. , after the value of modern science has increased, it is said that women do not understand science, but are only good at hurting spring and autumn, which is as funny as it is -- how many female audiences are there for documentaries such as "Great Power Heavy Weapons" and "Super Engineering"!Narrow is not narrow!

Even in the abandoned cult games like Jianniang, there are female players who are strong enough to exist... Cough cough.

Evelyn is obsessed with the research of magic technology, Xiao Yun is also more at ease.After all, the matter of her other teacher, Gwendoline, must have hurt her to some extent—Xiao Yun could use his status as the biggest benefactor of Anas in exchange for Elder Meili to ensure that Evelyn was in the Anas' status is not affected, but the emotional aspect cannot be compensated... After all, Elder Gwendolyn is just too arrogant, but he is very good to his disciples, this cannot be denied.

"Young man, who hasn't stumbled on the steps?" Xiao Yun sighed, and as soon as he turned his head, he started his own work... His heart would soften for Evelyn, but he had to say yes Elder Gwendolyn apologized, that was completely incompetent!

During Valentine’s trip last year, in addition to the workers, he brought back a batch of crops that are more suitable for the cold temperate climate. After trial planting in the tribe, the results were not bad; among them, the best and most adaptable to the grassland climate , which belongs to soybeans.

The black beans domesticated by the tauren have the advantage of being easy to feed. If you sprinkle them casually, you can get a harvest no matter what. The disadvantages are that the taste is poor and the oil content is not high. The oil yield of a hundred catties of soybeans is only five to seven catties.

The batch of soybeans "introduced" from Valentin are different. They are richer in protein and more suitable for making soy products, soy sauce, and vinegar; The oil rate has reached [-]%~!

Moreover, although soybeans are not as easy to feed as black beans, the yield is worthy of the sweat of the Snow Wolf tribe. The yield of soybeans and black beans sown in the same batch is around [-] catties per mu. In terms of income and utilization value, it is more than double that of black beans.

Needless to say, when the snow melts in spring, black beans will definitely be replaced by soybeans in the snow wolf clan's farming history... Xiao Yun saved all 40 catties of soybeans for planting, and even the soybean sprouts that he misses most are all sent to eat with wool.

In addition to soybeans, Xiao Yun also brought back a batch of mung bean seeds, but it is a pity... This thing cannot be planted in a large area on the cold temperate grassland, and it would freeze to death outside the greenhouse. Make mung bean soup for the tribe.

There are four major products of wheat, potatoes, sweet potatoes, and soybeans. As long as there are no emergencies or wars sweeping across the grasslands, the Snow Wolf clan will expand the planting area step by step, develop cultivation, and carry out production construction step by step. The longer the clan, the more stable the tribe can stand.

After walking around the shed area and inspecting the warehouse to make sure that the important seeds are well preserved, Xiao Yun thought about the time until the beginning of spring, and sighed lightly: "If we wait for Maomao and the others to come back and then set off, maybe the time will be a bit late." Tight...then let it be like this, the visiting delegation goes to St. Bridge, go early and come back early."

After the winter, the tribesmen who opened the store in the Elven Port returned to the tribe, but the underground city branch that transported ingredients from the underground world passage continued to operate.It wasn't that Xiao Yun hadn't thought about finding an excuse to take back his clansmen to avoid being involved in the dispute between the dark elves and the dwarves, but thinking about how the dark elves couldn't afford to let others come to their lair, he held back his thoughts.

After being injured, Mu Mu knew that no matter how rough and thick he is, he is not immortal. Although he is still a little skinny, he is indeed much more stable...it is worth continuing to cultivate.As for Leopard Xia, after going to the dungeon, he saw how big and cruel the outside world is, and understood that if he did not attach himself to the Snow Wolf Clan, the only remaining clansman in his family might be confused with the status of the gray dwarf and goblin. ——The gold content of these two is not as good as Hongye Languo Qingyan and the others, but they can be regarded as talents.

Since it is available, we must work hard to cultivate it.Xiao Yun lost two people in the last batch of food delivery team, and replaced them, they should be on the way now.

In addition to Mumu and Xia, the members of the visiting group that Xiao Yun had finalized in his heart included A Shu, the grass root patriarch, and the A Li patriarch.This mission is undoubtedly more eye-opening than the time to Valentine. The project I am in charge of involves foreign affairs, and I will bring everything I can with me. Seeing how others fall will help to improve my experience—— er , That's right, Xiao Yun knew with his knees that Carlisle's subordinates had a sea of ​​waste, so he made up his mind to take his clansmen to visit the negative teaching materials...

While patrolling the tribe, Xiao Yun was thinking about who to bring with him... Xiao En should concentrate on studying aerodynamics and not disturb him. In terms of force, Primo is enough, and St. Bridge is not a dragon's den. , There is no need to suffer from delusion.

The words of the signature character who spoke for the Snow Wolf Clan... Xiao Yun couldn't help but look disgusted when he thought of this—this was the first time the Snow Wolf Clan visited the human kingdom from the standpoint of a clan, so he had to pay attention to the specifications; It was the first appearance of the Snow Wolf Clan on a national occasion. If this tender-faced cub of myself was too conspicuous, it would appear that the Snow Wolf Clan "has no heroes to make the cub famous", so he had to do an image project no matter what.Speaking of this point, obviously, except for Dahe not doing it, he wants to...

That sucks.

Xiao Yun wandered over to the Welfare Department, called out Dahe who was vigorously tossing snacks and snacks, and told her about the visit to St. Bridge——

Not surprisingly, Dahe opened his mouth to refuse Sanlian: "No, I won't go, you go by yourself."

"...I didn't come to discuss with you, I came to inform you." Xiao Yun said with a dark face.

"Let others go. How can the welfare department leave me? If others don't tell me, Ah Shan will definitely not want to. He likes my pot of incense the most." .

"... Dahe." Xiao Yunyu said earnestly, "You have to understand one thing, if it weren't for your face being worth some use, do you think I would be willing to watch you do nothing but study how to get rid of business? Do you know how much labor is required to provide meals for thousands of people in Niujiao’s cafeteria every day? They still need it just now. Do you just need it? Besides, whoever makes the candy doesn’t A taste? Now is the time to use your face, are you sure you want to waste the value of your face, let me re-examine the meaning of your existence?"

Dahe looked at him in shock.

Xiao Yun looked at her expressionlessly.

"...Okay, I'll go." Dahe said aggrievedly, "But you have to promise, I will go with you this time, and the welfare department will always be mine from now on. You can't assign me to do other jobs."

——This is what makes Xiao Yun angry with her the most. She is obviously very witty and knows when to advance and when to retreat, but she just doesn't make progress and her brain doesn't need to be in the right place!

After finishing Dahe, Xiao Yun went to the place where the cat clan was in charge... The ball cannot move. After taking a break for a week, it took a lot of effort to adjust the rotation system in the wool spinning factory, and the production progress did not drop at all...

The fish bones cannot be moved. Although the pig farm and the cattle pen are separated, the flock is not a small number. Now is an important period when lambs are born in batches. The fish bones stay with the ewes for at least half a day. In the delivery room, in order to avoid affecting the raw wool production of the woolen mill, this leopard cannot leave his job...

Walking to the rabbit shed, and smelling the ecstatic smell of rabbit dung from a distance, even Xiao Yun couldn't help showing a little bit of sympathy—the slaughter rate in the rabbit shed is raised once every three months, and ordinary employees can still do six After a while, rosemary is enough, except for eating, sleeping and grooming, basically you can't do without the rabbit shed.

"It's not enough to show the respect and sincerity of the snow wolf clan to other clans if there is only one Xia in the cat clan. Anyway, the rabbit meat is enough, so let Rosemary relax for a while." Xiao Yun made a decision with some sympathy...

Rabbit meat can be eaten, rabbit skin can be used to make clothes and quilts, and rabbit viscera can be used to feed carnivorous predatory birds, attracting wild eagles, falcons, eagles and other large birds to build nests around the tribe. Birds attack crops.

Rabbits have a very short digestive tract and poor absorption capacity. Like birds, they have the characteristic of pulling while eating. At least 40% of the nutrients in the feed will be excreted by rabbits. Rabbit manure has therefore become the most fertile animal. Organic fertilizers are sprayed directly with water after decomposing and fermenting, which can greatly increase crop yields, and can even be used to feed fish.

Combining the above advantages, the practical value of raising rabbits is self-evident, second only to raising pigs, but the most regrettable thing is... Rabbit manure is too smelly. The rabbit shed next to the pigsty has been moved outwards repeatedly, and has been moved to the north of the old industrial area as evidence...

After deciding on Rosemary, after thinking about it, Xiao Yun still added Qingyan.It’s not for anything else, the spring starts and the spring plowing work is over, and the tribe will transfer a group of people to the hilly new area to choose a suitable place to open up wasteland and set up a pilot farm. At that time, Qingyan, the executive deputy head of the new area, will be even more busy. There are many, more troublesome problems to deal with. Before this, it was just as arranging some benefits for Qingyan, and going out to let the wind go...

Having determined the members of the visiting group in his heart, at the tribal work meeting that night, Xiao Yun explained the correctness, necessity and historical significance of this trip to St. Bridge to the clan chiefs, representatives of various ethnic groups, and management of various departments A summary report, a generous statement. From now on, the Snow Wolf Clan will walk out of the grassland cautiously, boldly, openly, and with a learning attitude, go to the world, and enter the eyes of people of all ethnic groups... and so on.

Uncle Ashan, the person in charge of the brick factory, opened his mouth half-open to listen to Xiao Yun throwing out a bunch of official words, and looked at the patriarch Huoyan, his brother and brother, in a daze: "Huoyan, what is Ayun talking about?"

Huoyan patriarch was as serious as ever: "Ayun wants to take people to Carlisle's hometown to play."

Mr. Xiao En was unfortunately sitting in the same row, and unfortunately, he had a strong sense of perception, so he almost didn't laugh.

Uncle Ah Shan raised his hand bravely.

"Oh, Ah Shan has something to say, please tell me." Xiao Yun was overjoyed. Could it be that Uncle Ah Shan has also enlightened?

Uncle Ashan stood up and said excitedly, "I'm going to Carlisle's house to play too, Ayun take me!"

Xiao Yun's high head shrank instantly.

Ah Shan thought that Xiao Yun disagreed, so he said nervously: "Take me, Ah Yun, you can go if you want to go, and I can go too. Last time you went to Valentine to play, you didn't take me with you. Take me this time too. hot?"

"...Take it, take it." Xiao Yun wiped the old blood from the corner of his mouth, and looked at the others in dismay, "Who else wants to go? Let's go to Ananas City to borrow the teleportation formation of the Bard Association , It costs [-] gold coins to activate once, and it can squeeze twelve people, and there is still one seat."

The reason why the particularly convenient teleportation array has not been popularized is because the cost of using it is too high.

The principle of the teleportation array is to exchange the space in the array with the space at the other end of the teleportation array. Each time the teleportation is activated, it consumes a different amount of magic spar depending on the distance, and this thing is so expensive that it is cheating—— Bard The association and Xiao Yun have an extremely strong alliance of interests. When the teleportation array is activated, only the minimum consumption of the Snow Wolf Clan is charged, and no dime is earned. Even so, the transfer of the Snow Wolf Clan to the headquarters of the southern continent, Elli The price of the Outer Palace has also reached the sky-high price of half a catty of gold per person...

Except for Ashan and Huoyan, who were able to sit in the conference room to participate in the tribal work meeting, the others were at least at the passing IQ level. Everyone heard the price and looked at each other, but they didn't dare to speak casually.

"Otherwise, let's go to eleven people, and bring some goods to the remaining teleportation space?" the grassroots patriarch said, "The cost of teleportation is too expensive...It's good to earn some money back."

After hearing this, everyone nodded in unison. The annual trade accounts of the tribe are not only made public, but also used as teaching materials. Everyone has to learn to calculate the accounts of the tribe after completing the elementary arithmetic course. Everyone knows that making money is not easy. .

Xiao Yun, who was almost crying stupidly by Uncle Ah Shan just now, was very happy to see that everyone was so sensible, and felt that his hard work over the years had finally paid off, and finally he was not surrounded by pig teammates...

"Wait!" Balke raised his hand, "I'm going too, I have a space bracelet, which can hold more things than you can bring yourself."

"It's okay...then what about your father Auston?" Xiao Yun said.

Balk immediately picked up the crystal ball at his feet and handed it across the row to Qingcao: "Give it to your cub to play with, she quite likes this, just don't lose it."

The miniature green dragon in the paralyzed ball turned over and sat up, flapping its small wings against the inner wall, hissing at the top of its lungs: "Nizi! Nizi!"

other people:"……"

Xiao Yun: "..." I don't think there will be a day for you two to reconcile.

"..." Qingcao took the crystal ball with the corner of her mouth twitching, and looked at Oston rolling inside, and then at Balk, "forget it... I'll put it away, and I'll finish it when you come back." Return Auston to you."

"It doesn't matter, he won't die anyway." Balk said indifferently.

grass:"……"

Auston burst into tears regardless of his image... Anyway, he doesn't have much image anymore.

"Auston, be quiet, don't disturb our meeting." Hard-hearted Yun said calmly, "Okay, let's continue. Apart from the task of going to St. Bridge, our biggest task in winter is still to study. This I looked at the learning progress of each group in two days, and found that at least half of the groups are not making satisfactory progress. Here, I must reiterate the importance of learning..."

As soon as Xiao Yun talked about studying, it was so stupid and cute that he felt a headache... Even the half-human Marcel, who could only squat by the door of the meeting room because of his size, couldn't help but want to cover his ears—it was a snow wolf The family's study arrangement is too heavy!It's even harder than living under the Tiger Clan!

"...I regret that there are still a small group of us who don't understand the importance of learning. This is the biggest problem in our tribe at present. I won't say anything else. Without the most basic arithmetic foundation, even if you can I don’t know how many bowls of rice I eat. Without the most basic language organization skills, it is even more difficult to understand the content of work tasks, let alone lead others.”

Putting some pressure on the audience, Xiao Yun said forcefully: "This situation is absolutely unacceptable. We must smash and sweep away any roadblocks that hinder the development of production! Starting tomorrow, every study group In addition to the courses on the rotation days and the internal group study once every three days, there is also a small test every half a month and a big test every month! Before the spring plowing comes, we must make all the study group members achieve a passing score or above! "

Everyone couldn't even make a loud wail...even the new patriarchs who had just joined the tribe for two months didn't make a sound-the environment has a huge impact on the individual. After accepting the learning atmosphere in the tribe, everyone at least This aspect has become accustomed to "submissiveness"...

Elder Gwendolyn never returned after attending the Frankish feast, which did not cause much shock in the city of Ananas.For the forest elves, Ananas is just a fringe city that can't be more biased. The "airborne faction" is only Gwendolyn; People, the other elders are too late to be happy, so there is no time to make a fuss about her departure.

The days after Elder Meili’s return can be described as busy and energetic. Without Gwendoline’s interception, she can use the balance of the soy sauce sold to other elf cities and dwarf kingdoms for the municipal government; Officials are cleared, and the funds that are owed are quickly distributed, and the poorer families in the city are also supported. In winter, there are a lot of adventurers who choose to spend the winter in the city. The daily consumption of these people does not seem to be much. , but it is enough for "poverty alleviation".

After receiving the letter sent by Xiao Yuntuo Evelyn with his flying mount, Elder Meili quickly contacted Kleist. On the same day, General Kleist sent a team of elf warriors to the Huoyan Tribe to pick them up.

After bringing the borrowed Xiao Yun and his party to Ananas, the green-skinned sharp-eared gang were not as stingy as Stephens, and they didn't even let them enter the city gates. They generously arranged for two good friends, Hai Lin and Kai, to be The tour guide took Xiao Yun and others around in Anas... The elves have their own experience in urban construction, but unfortunately their city was built on the mountain, which is different from the snow wolf clan on the great plain. It is not universal, and can only be used as a reference to learn about one or two.

Ananas, a poor city, does not have a teleportation array, and the Bard Association has a lot of money and wealth, but the teleportation array as a branch cannot compare with a Queen's city like Stephens, and it is very troublesome to activate; Xiao Yun and others waited after arriving. It took a long time for all the required magic crystals to be in place and arranged, and the material fee of 11 gold coins was handed over painfully. After more than ten seconds of nauseating weightlessness, Xiao Yun and a group of [-] people appeared in the grassland a few meters away. Qianli, a neutral city-state in the southeastern part of the South Continent: Elliot Palace.

The Bard Association has many labels, such as rich and powerful, free and romantic, holy land of historical knowledge, etc., but there is one thing that the Bard Association is most proud of, and that is the artistic atmosphere.

Leo Sylvester, a plain elf from the Bradrick continent, went to the elf forest and successfully negotiated with the forest elves to obtain the position of the head of the Ananas branch. Afterwards, he became obsessed with the strong artistic atmosphere of the forest elves , as close as a brother with a different surname to General Kleist...

Leo, who was reporting back to the headquarters, received the news from the water mirror of General Kleist's branch in the morning. It’s because the Ananas branch has made a lot of money by relying on the contributions of Ayun, the snow wolf tribe. Second, this Ayun is a person who is very important to General Kleist. Complete the task entrusted by the special general.

After waiting for more than two hours, a strong light finally flashed in the teleportation array. Leo, who was dozing off after waiting, was refreshed, strode forward, put on a hearty smile unique to the plain elves, and stretched his arms and said: "Welcome To Elliott, a friend of the Snow Wolf Clan?"

I saw a group of people appearing in the formation, except for one dragon and one human, the rest of them were all staggering...

A snow werewolf who was not used to long-distance teleportation stumbled out of the range of the teleportation array, his face was pale, his brows were slightly frowned, and he looked back with lingering fear as he staggered, as if the teleportation array that only rich people could afford was some kind of monster; When he bumped into Leo, the plain elf who was coming up, the snow werewolf turned his head in horror, and his eyes briefly collided with Leo.

It is such an embarrassing image, but this snow werewolf's glance can give people a sense of astonishment; there is still fear in his eyes, but Leo can really and vividly understand what it is. It's called "breathtaking".

Leo: "..."

Staring at the obvious snow wolf clan beast ears on both sides of the opponent's head for two seconds, and then moved his gaze to the snow wolf clan's face, the plain elf Leo instantly felt a kind of envy and jealousy that he didn't want to be friends with the snow wolf clan hatred……
