Chapter 531: Ore

Very strange, where is the blame?

I haven't seen outsiders for a long time, so it means I have seen them before?

A flash of surprise flashed in Luo's eyes, and he stopped Bruna from extending her tentacles to build a communication channel for the two of them.

Bruna's dark eyes flickered, she was full of doubts, so she didn't take the next step.

"Are you the head of the clan?" Luo asked.

The patriarch nodded.

"You know Common Tongue," Luo said.

The patriarch nodded again.

The first sentence is a doubtful tone, and the second sentence is affirmative tone.

Finally, Luo continued to ask, "Where is the blame?"

The patriarch thought for a moment and replied, "I'm not afraid of death."

Bruna was very relieved to see that the patriarch and Luo Zai communicated without hindrance. She has been wondering why there is a language barrier between two apparently similar species?

The patriarch had contact with humans from the six continents.

Luo was so sure, and then he didn't continue to ask, moved the bowl in his hand, smiled and said, "It won't taste good when it's cold, try it."

The patriarch took a deep look at Luo, laughed a few times, then took the bowl, opened his mouth, and moved his palm. Under Luo's surprised gaze, he threw a bowl full of sliced ​​meat into his mouth.

Very unrestrained way of eating.

I don't know what technique the patriarch used, even though his mouth was full of meat, he could still speak clearly.

He reminisced: "Someone told me that meat should be eaten with a big mouthful, and it should be mixed with a kind of water to drink. He invited me to drink it, and it was wonderful."

After all, it was an unimproved lingua franca, and the patriarch didn't speak it very well, so Luo could barely understand it.

He raised his hand, took out a small pot of monkey wine from Lin Nie from the black cat space, opened the lid, and the rich aroma of the wine overflowed, and asked following the patriarch's words: "Is this kind of water?"

The patriarch stared blankly at the palm-sized reed pot, unable to speak, he could only nod.

He wanted to say that he forgot how long ago he drank the water, without the fragrance of the pot in front of him, even if he hadn't tasted it with his tongue, he could guess that it would be better water.

Well, that's wine, but in the cognition of the patriarch, it's water, and it's something that only exists in long-term memory.

In fact, clansmen do not need to replenish water sources to survive here, because they have about 50 star stones, which can keep them in a sufficient amount of water, and there are many streams and lakes in the underground world. far away.

Due to the thick beard and hair, Luo couldn't see the patriarch's expression, but he felt the complex mood of the patriarch at close range, and then he passed the reed pot over.

"thanks."

The patriarch thanked him, and instead of taking the reed pot immediately, he took out a one-foot-long bar-shaped stone box from his heavy clothes, carefully placed it beside him, took the reed pot, and took a sip.

Cool, very cold, can be said to be heart-warmingly cool.

The physique of each family tends to the heat source, and it is cold to drink strong wine, let alone monkey wine.

However, it is this kind of coolness that is unique to Zhuzu.

Could it be that you still want to turn on the heater in midsummer?

The patriarch's eyes narrowed, and he was addicted to the coolness rolling down from his throat to his stomach, with endless aftertaste.

He took a sip and didn't take a second sip. Instead, he beckoned a few clansmen to pick off all the star stones on the top of the cave and find a large enough stone basin.

When he gave the order, he used the language of the clan, so Luo didn't understand it. He just wondered that the patriarch was enjoying himself so much, but he could hold back a second sip.

Soon, the clansmen removed all the shimmering star stones and brought a stone basin the size of a bathtub.

The starstone had a weak light, but upon closer inspection, it reflected a bright star-like illusion, because countless starlight wove into a river of stars, but the light spots were too weak to be seen.

Bi Siji stood up suddenly, his eyes also showed bright starlight, and there was endless love in his heart, but he didn't act rashly.

Out of the corner of Luo's eyes, Luo noticed Bisiji's movements, and before the patriarch put the star stone into the stone basin, he said, "Can you show me that glowing stone?"

The movement in the patriarch's hands paused, and his gaze quickly passed over Bisji,

Then it landed on Luo's body, picked out one and handed it over, saying, "Send it to you."

"Thank you." Luo calmly took the star stone, he will bring many favors to the clan, so naturally he can accept the star stone without any pressure.

The moment he touched the star stone, Baiyan only gave out a name: Fosun stone.

The star stone is cold to the touch, as big as a quail egg, and its transparent material looks like crystal. If you look closely, you can see the bright galaxy, but because the light is weak, it is not so obvious.

Luo handed the star stone to Bisji, who took it and fondled it immediately, it looked like a gem with the Milky Way inside.

The patriarch didn't care, and gently put the star stone into the stone basin, and then poured the wine from the reed pot into it.

There was not a lot of wine that didn't even cover the bottom of the basin, but when the wine touched the star stone, the galaxies were reflected in the stone basin in vain, and countless stars were even reflected on the ceiling of the cave.

Clan by clan does not need light, nor does it hate light.

However, the existence of Fosun Stone is not an ornament, it has a unique use, for example, it can increase the amount of monkey wine in the basin.

The Zhui family has fifty-three Fosun stones, but they basically don't use them because their demand for water is very low. On the contrary, they need a kind of Fuxing stone produced near the center of the earth. flint.

There are many strange ores like this in the Dark Continent, and the ore known to mankind is called No Man Stone. Just sinking a bead-sized one into the water can generate 20,000 kilowatts of electricity a day.

A long, long time ago, the roots of the clans were near the center of the earth, but they lost to the battle in the ecological circle, retreated, and then lived in the grottoes.

If the clan had a trading system, they would rather exchange fifty Fosun stones for one Flint stone, but now, even if they could, the patriarch would not change it.

He looked at the Milky Way at the bottom of the basin, as if he was about to indulge in it, and was a little stunned for a moment.

He met outsiders twice, and this time, it was the third time.

The first time, it should have been more than 400 years ago, it was a team of half-dead and not disabled, and the second time was almost 150 years ago, it was a lone traveler.

During the two contacts, he learned a vague common language, and he also got some gifts from two groups of outsiders, but what remains today is only the things in this shaped stone box, which was given by the lone traveler.

If I remember correctly, the lone traveler called the contents of the stone box Hope.

The starlight reflected in the basin is the embryonic galaxy.

The dark continent basically cannot see the stars and the sea, let alone the underground.

All the clansmen, even Bruna, were silently looking at the starlight above their heads.

"Is that the Milky Way Luo talked about?"

Bruna shook her tentacles, thinking to herself. ...
