After the donkey saddle and stirrup were proven to be useful, the carpentry workshop headed by Bo sped up the production of both.
Because of the previous successful experience, there was no need to grope around and they could just be made according to the previous specifications and styles, so the production speed of these two things increased suddenly.
Of course, another reason is that with axes and chisels made of meteorite iron, people like them seem to be more motivated to do things.
The morale bonus effect is simply too good.
Under such circumstances, the carpenter's room made four more donkey saddles and stirrups in just one and a half days.
The only thing that makes Han Cheng feel regretful is that the tribe has not yet opened the technology tree for steel smelting.
Otherwise, I could ask someone to make the horseshoes as well.
Of course, it will also be transformed into donkey horseshoes like saddles and stirrups.
In this way, after equipping such a three-piece set, everything becomes perfect.
The meteorite iron in the tribe can meet this standard, but the quantity is too small. It is not enough to replace important things in the tribe, let alone make donkey shoes for the donkeys.
However, the donkeys in his tribe would not run long distances unless they encountered a situation similar to the last time in the Tongshan residential area. If they walked normally, it would not be a problem without nailing horseshoes on them.
With these five donkey saddles, the eldest brother and his crew's journey north will be more stable.
Of course, five donkeys with saddles were not enough for everyone to ride, but they could be used in an emergency.
Whoever can't bear it anymore can ride on the donkey for a while and take a rest.
But don't underestimate the effect that such rest can have. At critical moments, the role that such behavior can play is really beyond imagination.
While these two items were being made in the carpenter's room, the rest of the people in the tribe were also busy, carrying out various preparatory work.
Backpacks, leggings, food, weapons, medicinal materials, clothes, tents and other things needed for going out were all prepared while everyone was busy.
In the early morning of the Qingque tribe, the sky was still dark and the surroundings of the tribe were still shrouded in some mist that had not yet dissipated, but the Qingque tribe had already become lively.
This was the second day after the five donkey saddles were successfully made.
Because meteorite weapons are useful, and Han Cheng also wants to take his men south as soon as possible to continue building Jinguan City, the people of the Qingque tribe have become impatient for this trip north.
That is why, on the morning of the second day when the donkey saddle and stirrups were completely made, everyone was ready to set off.
"Be careful on the road, don't rush too much. Jinguan City is very warm, and you can still work in winter and carry out construction.
You don't have to worry about the crops in the tribe, we are here to take good care of them."
On Qingque Square, Han Cheng looked at his senior brothers who were wearing leggings and carrying backpacks, and spoke with a smile, giving them instructions.
Last time, he was the one traveling far away, but this time his role changed and he became the one seeing someone off.
The eldest brother and the others all nodded solemnly, indicating that they had firmly memorized the Son of God's words in their hearts.
"Let's go! The sooner you go, the sooner you'll be back!"
After giving some instructions, Han Cheng said to his senior brothers with a smile.
The eldest senior brother bowed and saluted Han Cheng, then turned around. The others also followed the eldest senior brother's example and bowed to Han Cheng, the son of God of the Qingque tribe. Then they turned around and walked towards the gate of the courtyard under the leadership of the eldest senior brother.
As soon as they left the courtyard, the smaller bluebird flag that the team carried was raised high, and it slowly fluttered in the morning breeze.
After leaving the tribe, the group walked towards the west of the tribe under the guidance of the green bird flag.
Not long after, we got on the Bronze Highway.
Because when the Black Stone Tribe and others came here, they first arrived at the Tongshan Residential Area, and then arrived at the main tribe, so this trip north also needs to first follow the Bronze Highway to reach the Tongshan Residential Area, and then go north through Bajiling.
The number of people in the group led by the eldest brother is much larger than when Han Cheng went south.
In addition to the fifty citizens of the Green Bird Tribe, there were also seventeen new slaves. At the same time, the old slaves who worked one-on-one with these selected new slaves also went with them.
The reason why so many people went there was because the purpose of the eldest brother and his team this time was different from that of Han Cheng and his team last time.
Han Cheng and his companions went to the South mainly to find a warm and livable place, which carried a lot of uncertainty. It would not be a good idea to bring too many people with them.
But this time it’s different for the eldest brother and his men. They are going to the north to pick someone up.
Judging from the number of newly acquired slaves in the tribe and the number of those who were beaten to death, we can tell that there are quite a few people left in the tribe.
It is certain that it will exceed one hundred, and even exceeding two hundred or three hundred would not be too uncommon.
With so many people, if fewer people go, it will be difficult to suppress them and chaos will easily occur.
Although judging from the performance of these new slaves in the tribe, there shouldn't be any problems, but human hearts are really hard to grasp.
Just like piranhas, if you take one of these creatures out and put it into the water alone, they will be very timid, but once they form a group and have a large number of companions, they will immediately become ferocious.
Han Cheng was worried that the same would happen to the new slaves in the tribe.
After going north, I returned to the place where I lived before and saw the remaining people in the tribe. I immediately had some inappropriate thoughts.
Sending more people to the north can make these people think carefully when they may have some inappropriate thoughts, and can deter them.
Moreover, if something like this really happens, having more people in the tribe can ensure that the people in the tribe are less harmed or not harmed, and the rebellion can be suppressed quickly.
Han Cheng himself knew that the possibility of such a thing happening was not very high, but it was still right to be careful.
As everyone watched, the team with the Green Bird flags moved farther and farther away along the Bronze Highway and finally disappeared from everyone's sight.
After seeing off the eldest brother and his entourage, the people who remained in the tribe began to disperse and go about their work.
Compared to the last time Han Cheng went out, the people in the tribe seemed much more at ease about this trip of the eldest brother and his group. Unlike the time when Han Cheng went out, everyone was unsure and panicked.
The reason for this is, on the one hand, because Han Cheng holds an irreplaceable and important position in the Qingque tribe. Without him in the tribe, everyone always feels inexplicably uneasy.
On the other hand, Han Cheng’s last trip had too many uncertainties, while this time the eldest brother and his friends’ destination is clear.
So everyone seemed very relieved.
On the Bronze Highway, after the Green Bird flag at the front moved forward for a distance, the leader of the Grass Tribe, like everyone else in the team, couldn't help but look back from time to time.
I watched the tall tribe gradually become smaller and finally disappear from my sight.
However, unlike the sadness and reluctance of everyone in the team, the leader of the Grass Tribe felt relieved after no longer seeing the tall Green Bird Tribe.
It was as if I had escaped from a huge cage, or as if a huge stone pressing on my heart was suddenly lifted.
Driven by this mood, she even wanted to sing a song "Sister Sitting on the Bow" which she had learned in the Qingque tribe to express her excitement.
However, this impulse was ultimately suppressed by the leader of the Grass Tribe.
Not only that, she also showed her reluctance like everyone else.
Because she knew that if other people found out her true thoughts at this moment, it was hard to say whether these people would punish her or not, but what was certain was that they would watch her closely.
If something like this happens, then my trip will be in vain.
"Go!"
The eldest brother who was walking in front turned around and said to everyone.
Although the Son of God had told them not to rush before they set out, the eldest brother still felt that it would be better to walk faster.
Because when you return to the tribe earlier, you can do other things earlier.
At least this year's autumn harvest cannot be missed.
This was the thought that the eldest brother had already made up his mind after deciding to lead people north.
So after walking along the Bronze Highway for a while, we started to urge people to move forward and increased our speed.
Everyone followed the eldest brother and increased their pace.
When the sun was setting, they had already arrived at Tongfu Inn.
After resting for a while here, eating some food and drinking some boiled water, everyone started to move forward again.
Time passed slowly as everyone walked, and before they knew it, the sun had already fallen on the distant horizon.
However, the leading eldest brother had no intention of stopping to set up camp and continued walking.
"We'll rest when we get to Longmen Inn. There's a house, a kang, and a yard there."
The eldest brother turned around and shouted to everyone.
Today he planned to cover more distance. It didn't matter if they walked for a while at night. After all, they had more people and were well-equipped, so they didn't have to worry about encountering wild beasts.
在这样的状态下，只能是野兽担心遇到他们，而不是他们担心遇到野兽。
而且有青铜高速在，又不用担心会迷失方向，在这样的情况下完全是能够走上一段夜路的。
对于早些前往北方，众人都是期待的，因此上大师兄一声招之后，全都抖擞了精神，加快了脚步，沿着青铜高速往前走去。
在众人的行走之中，日光彻底消失，暮色笼罩下来，让着本就苍莽的世界变得更加苍莽。
一行人就这样迈动着步伐持续不断的走着，等到天黑了一段儿时间之后，沉寂几天的龙门客栈迎了新的过客。
一些距离龙门客栈比较近的水鸟，被这样的动静惊得扑棱着翅膀飞向别的地方，叫声在这样的夜里，显得格外响亮。
“烧水，都把脚泡上一泡再睡觉，神子带着我们就是这样做的，很是好用。”
院门从里面关上、有火光亮起的龙门客栈之内，贸的声音响起，对众人说着他从神子那里学来的法子。
听到贸说这是从神子那里学来的法子之后，众人不敢怠慢，纷纷学着贸的样子做了起来。
用热水使劲的泡过脚，众人都觉得这个法子好，脚似乎一下子就变得舒服了许多，整个人也都变得有精神了起来。
这很大一部分当然是心理作用。
虽然热水这个东西，在后世的事情被发展成为了一个似乎所不治的存在。
感冒了，多喝热水，嗓子干了，多喝热水，胃不舒服了，多喝热水，肚子疼了，多喝热水，女生来月事了同样多喝热水……
而且用来泡脚也确实能够解乏，但效果真的没有青雀部落众人感觉的这样好。
吃晚饭、泡过脚，安排了人手守夜之后，众人开始睡觉。
行走了一天的人，早都已经困得不行，此刻往这里一躺，很快就响起了一片的呼噜声，喧闹了一阵儿的龙门客栈，重新恢复了安静……
第二天一早，众人吃过早饭之后就开始启程，沿着青古高速继续往西行进，到了下午日头有些偏西的时候，到达了铜山居住区。
铜山居住区的人们，见到了以大师兄为首的一大票主部落来人，自然欢喜的不行。
“先安排人做饭，简单一点就成，越快越好，吃过饭了之后，我们好继续北上。”
来到铜山居住区之后，大师兄刚跟驻守在这里殇见面，就连忙这样交代着。
殇听说了之后不敢怠慢，连忙安排铜山居住区的人赶快做饭与大师兄他们吃。
“首领，你们这是准备做什么？”
将做饭的事情安排了下去之后，殇才开始询问大师兄他们这一趟的目的。
“北上，去将这些人剩下的族人都给接到咱们部落……”
大师兄显得有些兴奋的对殇说道，颇有着一些汝妻子吾养之的雀跃。
明白了大师兄他们这一行准备做什么之后，殇也随之变得兴奋起来，兴奋之中还带着一些遗憾。
如果不是需要在这里驻守铜山居住区不能离开，殇都想跟着大师兄他们走上这一遭了。
“这是驴鞍和驴镫，神子才让跛他们制作出来的，有了这样的东西之后，驴子骑来特别的舒服……”
几头装了驴鞍与驴镫的驴子看起来格外的显眼，很容易的就吸引到了众人的目光。
贸笑着对好奇的铜山居住区的众人进行解释。
在听了贸的解释之后，众人的目光顿时就亮了，如今在部落里和麻雀齐名的榴头，更是搓着手，显得有些急不可耐的向贸询问，他可不可以骑骑。
这样的事情贸当然是应允的。
并且，在榴头开始乘骑之前，贸先给榴头做了示范，并顺便讲解了从右面上出右腿的诀窍。
从右面上下驴子的习惯，就这样留在了铜山居住区。
而第一次乘坐这种增加了驴鞍与驴镫的榴头，也跟麻雀一样，兴奋的不得了，甚至于都不想从驴子背上下来。
“神子说了，过上几天跛他们再多制造出来一些之后，就会让人送过来一些……”
贸笑着对看着装备了驴鞍驴镫露出浓浓不舍之情的榴头以及另外一些喜欢骑驴子的人说道。
听了贸这样说之中，榴头他们一下子就变得开心起来，并迫不及待的想要那一天赶紧到来。
没有办法，这两样东西对喜欢骑驴子的人杀伤力实在是太大了，不下于陨铁斧头、凿子这些对于跛的吸引力。
在这样的谈论之中，饭食已经被做好了，大师兄、贸他们一行吃过了由铜山居住区提供的午饭之后，没有过多的停留，就再次启程，离开铜山居住区往北走去。
行走的途中，铜山居住区的几块田地里，谷子长得特别的强，在谷子地之中，隐约可以看到一些骨头。
这些骨头都是之前前来攻打铜山居住区的黑石联军留下的。
曾经，想要攻入铜山居住区的他们，如今依然在铜山居住区外面。
只不过他们已经用自己的残躯，补偿了当日践踏青雀部落农田的罪过。
地里的那些长得比较强壮的谷子，就是最好的见证。
众人一路前行，沿着田野之中留出来的路，来到八字岭。
此时的八字岭，与之前各种稠密荆棘还没有完全长出叶子的时候相比，显得更加让人不可逾越了，长大的叶子将所有的空隙都给遮挡了起来，看上去有种密不透风的感觉。
八字岭缩口的那边，之前开挖的出来的陷阱，如今都已经被捣毁，并进行了大致的封填。
不过还是能够看到当初的留下的痕迹，找到陷阱的位置。
再一次走到八字岭之中的草部落首领，看着八字岭上密不透风的荆棘，看着那未被彻底填埋干净的陷阱的痕迹，不由自主的就想起了当日自己等人战败，被堵在八字岭之中的情形。
青雀部落众人那强悍的战斗力，以及此时看起来很是平和的首领，握着黑石武器没有什么犹豫的将树皮的脑袋砍下来的情形也也随之出现在了她的脑海之中。
一些恐惧忍不住的从心中升起，让她打了一个哆嗦。
原本，已经坚定下来的心，这时候出现了动摇。
对于接下来自己想要做的事情，草部落的首领陷入了深深的摇摆不定之中……
队伍出了八字岭之后，行进的速度就变得慢了下来。
这一方面是对于接下来需要往哪里走，大师兄他们不熟悉，需要让这些新奴隶们进行辨别，比较花费时间。
另外一方面是，剩下的行程已经没有了修建好的平稳道路，不少地方都需要用斧头、镰刀这些清理一下才比较好过……
“看哪里！”
几天之后，黄昏又至，绚丽的晚霞铺在西面的天空，瑰丽多姿，又带着黄昏十分的那种安详。
一路行进的队伍之中，有人忽然惊喜的喊叫了起来。
喊叫的人是风部落人老腿不老、跑的老快的那个老原始人。
“我们远原来生活过的洞穴！”
他惊喜的喊着，想向周围的人诉说。
听到老原始人的诉说之中，众人都高兴起来，因为这意味着今天晚上他们不用再搭建帐篷了，只需要将老原始人他们曾经生活过的这个洞穴，用烟熏上一下，再检查一下就可以入住，省下不少麻烦。
这时候也到了需要进行安营扎寨了，所以大师兄就下令让众人往风部落原来原来居住的洞穴那里前进。
这样过了一段儿时间之后，众人便来到了这个显得荒芜了很多的洞穴前面。
大师兄指挥众人停下，将双肩背包等这些放下，并寻找一些柴草，点着之后对洞穴进行熏烤。
很快，这里就冒起了浓烟。
而人们则在外面的空地上，搭建起简易炉灶、烧水做饭、喂养同行的牲畜这些。
等到众人吃过晚饭之后，洞穴里面的烟气基本上也都已经消散干净了。
于是人们就将洞穴口处燃烧留下的灰烬往边上清理了一下，点着火走进了洞穴之内，并在里面升起了火堆。
火光将洞**部照的明亮起来。
在明亮的火光的照耀下，有人发现在他们点燃火堆的不是太远的地方，有着一堆燃烧过后的灰烬，是看起来没有过去太长时间的那种。
这样惊奇了一阵儿之后，有部落里的新奴隶开口，说当初他们南下的时候，就在这个洞穴之中居住过。
知道的这些灰烬是他们当初留下的之后，众人也就不再惊奇了，开始专心致志的收拾起洞穴，为一会儿的睡觉做准备。
原风部落的老原始人也端着一些热水进来，坐在一块石头上进行泡脚。
“啊！”
他双脚放进装着热水的盆子里面，发出一声动静比较大的喊叫，引得众人纷纷看来。
这当然不是水太烫将他给烫的了，而是因为他忽然想起了一些事情。
If they had not left and joined the Qingque tribe to become a real Qingque tribe member, but continued to live here, would everything have been over?
The people who attacked the Tongshan residential area were so numerous and so ferocious. If we were to stay here and encounter them, we would have a hard time surviving...
After this thought arose, the old primitive man felt both fear and relief. At the same time, he felt even more proud of the fact that he had beaten the tribal leader with his shoes and made him agree to join the Green Bird tribe.
After hearing what the old primitive man said, everyone felt happy and fortunate for him.
As for the new slaves in the tribe who understood what the old primitives were talking about, they expressed these things that only the evil Black Stone tribal leader and the chopped-off bark would do.
As for them, they would never do such a thing...
What they said was true, because on the way to the Tongshan residential area, they encountered two small tribes.
Then, under the order of the leader of the Blackrock Tribe, they took action and attacked the two tribes they encountered one after another, and then the people of these two small tribes were gone...
At first, when they saw this empty cave, the leader of the Blackrock Tribe and many people in the Blackrock Alliance were all regretting why it was an empty cave...
