After the limestone on the surface of the mountain is weathered, even if it is trampled by a horseshoe, some limestone will crack immediately.
It was a feeling of walking on thin ice, but it was the first time for Charlie and Luke to ride a horse, and they felt that riding a horse was very new. On the first day, they sat on horseback for a whole day, except for the necessary toilet. Even eating was carried out on horseback. They didn’t know what kind of pain riding a horse needed until the tender meat on the inner thigh was worn by the leather saddle the next day.
At night, when camping behind a mountain, five young people turned into bowlegged ducks. When they walked, they all dragged their faces and twisted their faces. However, they insisted on setting up their tents and cooking dried meat and baked wheat cakes in the pot. They learned to cook like the old village chief and made the pot of porridge look a little disgusting.
Some people are also responsible for feeding horses. It is said that there will be limestone iguanas wherever there are seabuckthorn grass, but obviously there are no traces of limestone iguanas near the hunting sites of village heads. When they feel threatened, they will migrate to the depths of Pagelos Mountain. Once they leave here, seabuckthorn grass will become very lush. Although seabuckthorn grass has spikes and some stings, seabuckthorn grass is also very good, and there is little forage. This is the case in the barren land.
The young people sat against the stone wall and discussed "It turned out that riding a horse was quite painful …"
There is an iron pot on the makeshift stove, and the water in the pot has been boiled.
Luke broke the wheat cake and threw it into the soup pot and said uncertainly, "Maybe it’s because we’re not wearing leather pants. You see, Knight Surdak is fine."
Val, who was injured, re-tied six horses and squeezed a few people into the room. He sat down with a relaxed face and said, "He is a knight! This small problem is certainly not difficult to solve. "
Sitting on the outermost side, Charlie looked at Surdak coming from the top of the mountain and said, "Maybe we can ask him some methods."
When Surdak came back from the top of the mountain, he recorded the parchment of the terrain in this area. When he heard Charlie ask him for the secret of riding, he looked up and answered.
Of course, riding a horse requires some skills. You must communicate with your horses often and then build mutual trust. They will be like your friends, and your pain will be reduced.
"But …!" He turned to Charley and said, "Of course, these are not the most important things. The most important thing is that you can recover as soon as possible in terms of what kind of injuries you have suffered, just like this …"
Then he put his hand on Charlie’s leg and let the holy light heal Charlie’s leg wound quickly.
"So that’s it …"
Chapter 254 Volcano Foot Wealth
It’s cold in the mountains at night. Surdak climbed out of the tent and took out a blanket for Valpi, who was in charge of the vigil.
He went to see the horses from Gubo again. When he saw him coming, he lowered his head affectionately to lick his palm and bring it back to him.
Moonlight is like snow. A limestone iguana heard the movement and quickly got into a crack in the rock.
There is no sand wolf, and the Pagelos mountains are particularly quiet at night.
In the morning, Charlie came out of the tent and saw a limestone surface in Surdak facing the rising sun to practice his sword.
He held the shield in his hand and lunged up the shield every time, then stabbed the Roman sword in his hand. He could clearly see that the blade was brought out of the white horse and practiced it. When he saw Surdak’s moving pole standard, Charlie couldn’t help but practice the basic fencing with Surdak. After more than 100 years, he felt that his arm was too sour to lift and jump off the rock.
Then Charlie picked up the alloy bow and practiced bowing against the rock wall. fine steel’s arrows can easily plunge into these rocks. When Charlie pulls these arrows out of the rock wall, the rock wall will leave some messy arrow holes.
At the beginning, the village lizard hunting group walked for nearly seven days before reaching Pustuca Mountain. The Surdak team rode for two and a half days and then came to the foot of Pustuca Mountain.
Every step a horse takes on soft volcanic ash, its horseshoe will sink into it and it will be very difficult to walk.
Moreover, the volcanic ash in the air flutters and falls like snowflakes, and there is always a burnt smell. On whether people or horses are covered with a linen scarf at their noses and mouths, this linen cloth is breathable and good at absorbing sweat. Surdak and several people all led the horses to the last part of the road.
When I came to the place where salamanders were hunted, all traces here were covered by new volcanic ash. It belonged to the foot of Pustuca Mountain, and some magma channels ended here. Some of them were stacked like candlestick wax oil, and some magma channels were dark red. Obviously, there was hot magma flowing inside, and there were some hot smoke everywhere.
The place where salamanders were first discovered was like a river with lava flowing on its edge. This river has already condensed into cold rock.
There are some messy stones inside, just like sharp bamboo shoots coming out of the soil in early spring. The volcanic ash here has become a little warm, and the horses have already felt a little uncomfortable. They have become restless and kept kicking the horseshoes. Surdak can make people wrap these horseshoe blankets. Sure enough, these horses will be quiet after this treatment.
Surdak left Val to watch six horses and others carefully walk into the rocky area. There is no vegetation here, as if it were dead and hot everywhere.
Everyone is worried that they will meet salamanders again, and they dare not disperse, which will narrow the search scope.
According to the caravan leader, salamanders like to eat sulfur, which usually contains sulfur mines. Suldak entered this rocky area and looked for the yellow ore while searching for the salamanders’ whereabouts. When he walked in a little, he heard Luke give a low shout, "There is really sulfur here …"
Surdak smell speech hurriedly took a few steps forward. Luke looked around the rocky area inside. Sure enough, he saw some light yellow stones surrounded by magmatic rocks. Although the number was small, some of them were wrapped together by magmatic rocks, but there was a big piece around the whole rocky beach.
"I’m going to a lot of sulfur ore. I’m afraid we’ll really get rich this time!" Charley followed Surdak into this rocky area where yellow sulfur deposits were shining everywhere, and immediately he felt dizzy and messy. He ran to a stalagmite with a yellow ore exposed at one corner and tried to break the surface sulfur mine with his hand, only to find that the hardness of these minerals was much harder than limestone. He was too tired to pry the ore from the stalagmite.
Then Charlie wiped his face with this warm stalagmite and asked Surdak, "Do you think we can take all these sulfur mines away?"
Luke said unceremoniously to Charley, "When you dream, can you stop talking nonsense and think about what? We are the only ones here, and even if we dig for half a year, we may not be able to dig sulfur …"
It’s true that this rocky area is like Luke said, but there are countless exposed sulfur mines. Here, a lava flows into the river after volcanic eruption in the rocky area.
Now Pubao Mountain is a quiet place. This lava river has cooled down, and the whole river channel is covered with volcanic rocks, with some gravel inclusions. This river channel has cooled down, and the volcanic rocks have formed a number of stalagmite landforms in the rocky area. These large gravel washed by the lava river are distributed with a large number of high-purity sulfur mines. That salamander will occupy the foot of Pubao Mountain only to eat these sulfur.
It’s a pity that this salamander was unlucky enough to meet the lizard hunting group in Wall Village and was finally killed by Surdak with five young people in Wall Village.
Surdak looked at this sulfur area and wondered whether this sulfur mine would be released after all. Now this is still the main land. Once someone finds that this cooled lava river contains rich sulfur mines, it is estimated that someone will compete for this mountain.
What is urgent now is, of course, to recover these sulfur mines as much as possible.
Charley Luke looked around at several stalagmites, which were covered with a layer of volcanic ash. He saw the yellowish sulfur mine inside and said, "Of course, there are not only us, but also the villagers." Together … "
Surdak jumped a tall stone and looked around. He wanted to check the general scope of this rocky area, but found that this area was much larger than he thought. The whole lava river extended to the top of Pufeng Mountain. There was no river to go, but it was at the foot of the mountain. Fiona Fang was two square kilometers away. The rocky area was covered with volcanic ash. I don’t know how many stalagmites contained sulfur.
"It seems a little difficult to knock this yellow stone head!" A young man came from behind and tried to pry the sulfur mine with a crowbar. Unfortunately, he couldn’t pry the ore after knocking for a long time.
Luke walked up to him and said to his companion, "We should find some that are mostly exposed."
The environment around Pustu Mountain is very bad, even the air seems to be burning with flames, and there are a lot of volcanic ash floating in the air. The tent method can be used to build the site directly, because it is likely that the whole person will turn into fried eggs after sleeping for one night, and ordinary people will not be able to live here. This is probably the reason why this mineral deposit has not been discovered so far.
Surdak asked five young people to find some easy-to-pick sulfur mines in the rocky area around here and put them into the prepared bags, while he walked around the rocky area for a long time. Not all the rocky areas contain sulfur mines in the peripheral area. Those rocky piles are ordinary limestone, and there are stalagmites near the center of the lava river in Pufeng Mountain. This narrow strip is not more than 50 meters wide, but it keeps spreading towards the top of the mountain …
A group of people stayed at the foot of Pustuca Mountain for one night and then left Pustuca Mountain on foot with six horses full of sulfur mines.
When I came, I rode a horse for two and a half days and returned to Wall Village, but I walked back with my horse. It took six people to get up early and get greedy for the dark for almost five days before I returned to Wall Village.
Chapter 255 Forced to marry a woman ()
Surdak and five young people returned to Woer Village on the tenth day of their trip. Because no one knew when they would return, the village was deserted. Two boys pouted and played with mud on the wooden board. When a group of people came with horses, two children returned them. The caravan shouted excitedly because every time the caravan arrived, they would each be given a small piece of toffee.
Six people rode horses and carried rations for half a month. They set off from Woer Village and walked along the route of the former lizard hunting regiment to the northwest. Pustuca Mountain is full of fissured limestone in that direction. We must be careful not to let the horseshoe step in the fissure, because it is easy to trip the horse’s leg.
