Ye Qiong counted the pieces of coal that popped out of a corner. There were eight pieces in total, arranged in a very messy manner.
He chopped off a piece with a dagger, then weighed it in the palm of his hand. Ye Qiong confirmed again that it was coal.
Ye Qiong looked back at the still unconscious Mustang King, and immediately smiled and said: "It seems that you can not only create disasters, but also bring good luck."
Things like coal will not appear bit by bit. As long as it appears, with the manpower of Ye Qiong and his tribe, there is no need to consider when it will be used up.
With coal, the energy problem has been directly solved. Ye Qiong is now very confident that the tribe can develop into the steam age in the shortest possible time.
Once we enter the steam age, we can develop technological civilization!
Now Ye Qiong doesn't know how much coal there is under the ground, but Ye Qiong knows very well that they will never be able to mine it all in a short period of time.
With coal and its utilization, it is subtle...
Snow Star's era of pollution has slowly begun.
At the same time, the amount of carbon emissions will gradually rise. What Ye Qiong himself did not expect is what he has discovered now that this coal mine means to Xuexing as a whole.
From Ye Qiong's current perspective, he is too lazy to think about the future. The first problem he needs to solve now is to find a way to get out first. If he is trapped and dies here, it will be a joke.
Coal resources are of no use.
When thinking of this, Ye Qiong looked at the Mustang King again. It probably wouldn't wake up for a while.
Ye Qiong looked at the snow above his head. It was now completely erected. If Ye Qiong dug up hastily, it would probably cause a collapse, and the snow would bury the entire pit.
Although Ye Qiong is not worried about the snow burying him, the Mustang King is not. Once buried, it has basically no chance of survival, and it will die of suffocation in a short time.
Ye Qiong can wave his hands to create a small space in front of him where he can breathe. The Mustang King has no hands, and it cannot protect its head like humans.
Walking to the long bow and quiver, Ye Qiong picked up the long bow, then pulled out an arrow and placed it on the long bow.
Then it’s time to draw the bow and shoot the arrow!
"Whoosh!"
The long bow was pulled to the full moon by Ye Qiong in an instant, and the arrow flew towards the snowdrift above the head at high speed. After inserting into the snowdrift, it disappeared directly.
In the distance, Tang Ying, who was kneeling on the ground praying, suddenly raised her head, and her eyes were immediately fixed on the arrow shot out from under the snowdrift.
"..."
Tang Ying looked at the arrow and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that the man is fine and can still draw a bow and shoot an arrow!
But isn't it buried? Why can I still have my hands free to shoot arrows?
The process is not important, the result is the most important.
Since you still have the strength to shoot an arrow, it means that you are not seriously injured, and if the arrow can be shot out from below, it proves that it is not buried too deep. The small hole that the arrow passes through can also allow air to flow in, so
There will be no suffocation problem for the time being.
After thinking about it, Tang Ying put her mind at ease. As long as Ye Qiong can handle the first wave of impact, crawling out from under the snowdrift shouldn't be a big deal, but it won't be easy either...
It's a matter of time.
At this moment, Ye Qiong, who was in the big pit, had recovered from the excitement of discovering the coal mine just now.
Looking at the tiny arrow hole above the head, one can see the sky at the top. Although it is only the size of a fingernail, it is a good thing for Ye Qiong.
Raising his right hand, Ye Qiong grasped it, then left a small gap and aimed at the small hole where the arrow penetrated.
The small hole imaging allows the leaf dome to see farther.
I roughly estimated that the depth of the snowdrift above was about seven or eight meters.
Although it is not very deep, how to get out is quite troublesome for Ye Qiong now.
If Ye Qiong was alone, he would have climbed out without saying a word, but now there is a wild horse king lying next to him. It depends on him whether he can bring the group of wild horses outside back to the tribe.
Ye Qiong can now imagine what the scene is outside. Their location is already on a high slope. It seems that the snow in the surrounding area is at least tens of meters deep, or even hundreds of meters deep...
Humans cannot walk on this fluffy snow. Only after being blown by the wind for several days can it reach the hardness to walk on.
It seems now...
Ye Qiong must stay with the Mustang King for a few days.
Time began to pass little by little.
Tang Ying and Daidai, who were outside the avalanche range, could only worry now. It was impossible to pass through the fluffy snow that was several kilometers wide and tens of meters deep on average.
At this time, human power is very insignificant in front of nature.
The group of wild horses did not leave. Instead, they were led by a few mares and guarded a small mountain peak in the distance. They were also waiting for their king to return.
Ye Qiong carefully analyzed the current situation and found that he was in a rather embarrassing situation.
"Chi..."
Just when Ye Qiong was thinking about what to do next, Mustang King had already woken up.
It first raised its head and looked around, then set its sights on Ye Qiong, as if it was sizing up Ye Qiong. This time, its eyes were no longer hostile, but more curious and puzzled.
The guy in front of me... first rode on him inexplicably, and then fell into this big pit with him. The key is that this guy didn't kill it, but healed it.
The Mustang King looked at his front legs again. The twisted bones were now straight, and fixed sticks were tied to them. Although the Mustang King couldn't understand it, he could still feel the result.
It's just that my front legs don't hurt as much anymore.
"Mou!"
The Mustang King shouted at Ye Qiong, and then tried to straighten his body. After struggling for a few times, he stood up directly.
Only now did Ye Qiong feel the true height of the Mustang King. The horse's back was two meters high from the ground.
It would be very difficult for normal adults to ride on it.
Even though I stood up, I still can't use my left front leg.
Ye Qiong walked towards the Mustang King. The Mustang King subconsciously took a step back, and his buttocks directly hit the wall, unable to move back.
After seeing this, Ye Qiong stopped moving forward.
One person and one horse just stayed in the big pit for a while.
Ye Qiong turned around, walked to the wall, and then dug on it with a dagger. He quickly dug out a round hole about one meter deep.
Then he turned around again, walked to the coal, squatted down, and smashed a few pieces down with a bang.
Then he put the smashed coal into the hole just dug, then took out the fire breaker and placed it under the stacked coal.
