He took Zhuo Yan and the others directly to the coal mine base under construction.

At present, Zhuo Yan and the others cannot realize the importance of coal.

So Ye Qiong planned to get some coal first and then barbecue, so that Zhuo Yan and the others could experience the beauty of coal.

As for the steam era that coal needs to lead in the future and its use in technology, it is still not enough to raise fire, cooking and heating. It is enough to attract the Yanfeng tribe.

There are more soldiers on the coal base, and the tribe's current coal storage is sufficient, so the soldiers are busy building the base and consolidating defense facilities.

One of the two giant crossbows newly built a while ago was transported here.

The base is divided into several areas. Although the sparrow is small and has all the internal organs, the most important thing is defense. The tower has been built as high as seven meters, and the top is still under construction. The giant crossbow is now placed below.

After the tower is built, it will be mounted on the top.

The range reaches maximum.

The burning charcoal fire is ready-made. The soldiers on the coal mine base have long learned to use coal to keep warm and cook. After all, the combustion time is so long. Just build the stove and bury it directly with ash when you don’t need it. As long as the coal is completely burned, the core temperature is very high.

So even if it is buried by ashes, it will not be extinguished.

It can burn for a very long time. When using it, just turn out the burning kernel inside.

Very convenient.

Zhuo Yan and the others were brought into the residence that had been built on the base. When they saw the charcoal fire burning in the fire, Zhuo Yan and the others didn't feel anything at first.

Judging from the shape, it is similar to charcoal. There are still many of them in their tribe, but as time goes by, I soon discovered something different about coal.

Generally speaking, the combustion time of charcoal is mostly about twenty minutes, while the combustion time of coal is...

With the same volume, it is about five times that of charcoal.

Although it doesn't sound too big, it definitely has epoch-making significance for Xuexing, and it can increase efficiency in any aspect.

The simplest example is that it is unlikely that when soldiers hunt in the wild, it is possible to march with burning charcoal, but coal is enough. Burying burning coal into the ashes can ensure a source of heat throughout the day.

Gradually, Zhuo Yan finally realized some of the significance of coal...

The meat cooked in the pot has already started to smell. Zhuo Yan smelled the meat fragrance and finally looked at Ye Qiong and asked, "How many such black things are there in your tribe?"

Ye Qiong smiled and waved at Zhuo Yan: "Come with me."

After saying that, he walked out, stood at the door, looked at Gaopo in front of him and said, "There are all below!"

Zhuo Yan was stunned for a moment...

Here is the following?

So far, he did not know that coal was mined from the ground, so he couldn't understand Ye Qiong's current macroscopic meaning.

Ye Qiong saw Zhuo Yan's expression and knew that he could not understand it, so he continued: "It's just a lot. The ones we mined at present are almost as high as a small hill, and there are more underneath."

Zhuo Yan nodded. He could understand what he said, probably the meaning of being inexhaustible.

Although Ye Qiong did not have this meaning, in Zhuo Yan's eyes, the Ye Qiong tribe already possessed endless treasures.

If their Yanfeng tribe can join such a tribe, then...

Does it also mean that they no longer have to stock up on wood in winter, and they can eat hot food throughout the winter, and even the room can be kept warm all the time.

When he thought of this, Zhuo Yan's eyes showed an intoxicating yearning.

Thinking of the two king-level monsters in the Yeqiong tribe, and several tails...

Will such tribes dislike them?

Before he knew it, Zhuo Yan became a little inferior.

This was a bit beyond Ye Qiong's expectations.

However, Ye Qiong's purpose in mind was achieved.

After continuing to chat with Zhuo Yan for a while, Ye Qiong looked at the sky. It was almost dusk. Now if Zhuo Yan and the others went back, they could return to Yanfeng tribe before dark.

If you don’t leave, you will have to go to the night, although there is no beast tide in spring and summer.

However, there are still many high-level monsters in the wild, especially at night. If the team is killed by monsters in the wild, Ye Qiong will be in vain all day today. At that time, not only will he not win over the Yanfeng tribe, but he may even attract hatred and war break out.

So Ye Qiong planned to escort them back in person. After all, if there was a real accident in them, Ye Qiong could not even explain it even if he had eight mouths, and there was no surveillance on Xuexing. For the Yanfeng tribe, there was only one information, that is, the people they sent to go with Ye Qiong did not come back and died outside.

Then Ye Qiong naturally has an unshirkable responsibility.

I had a meal of ice sculptures cooked from coal, which gave Zhuo Yan and others a different taste. The temperature of coal was much higher than that of charcoal, so the cooked meat would be more eroded and the soup should be better.

After eating and drinking, Ye Qiong also fulfilled his friendship with landlords.

The meat I cooked was a little too much, but it would not be wasted. The remaining half pot, along with the soup, was poured into my stomach.

After drinking, Daidai licked the bottom of the pot with unsatisfactory satisfaction.

After Daidai was full of food and drink, the team immediately set off and went straight from the coal mine base here toward the direction of advance that Yanfeng tribe had predicted.

If Ye Qiong and his team are now targeting the Yanfeng tribe when they come out in the morning.

Then when they arrive, they will probably not even be able to see their personal shadows.

Ye Qiong now took Zhuo Yan and the others and moved quickly according to the position he predicted in his heart, and Zhuo Yan and the others followed closely behind him.

And the sky gradually darkened.

After the star fell to the ground, it was only halfway through.

The stars disappeared below the horizon, and some high-level monsters that were hiding day and night began to appear.

Many of them noticed Ye Qiong's small team, but after seeing Daidai, there were no high-level monsters that were not good at using their brains. They rushed up to die and consciously hunted themselves.

When it was almost time for Yanfeng tribe, Zhuo Yan took out a whistle. This whistle is almost the same as Ye Qiong's, but it is actually used for contact within the tribe. Otherwise, if he ran around in a dark way, as long as he was slightly wrong, he would directly miss the tribe.

Once you get it wrong, you can basically not find it.

In spring and summer, sometimes whistles are used to communicate or ask for help between the two tribes.

"Chi!Chi!"

Zhuo Yan blew three times in a row, and the harsh high-frequency whistle could spread to very far places.

"Chirp!Chirp!"

More than ten seconds later, a hurried whistle came from the southwest direction.

After Ye Qiong and Zhuo Yan heard the whistle, their faces changed.

This whistle...
Chapter completed!
