Chapter 376: Vast Difference
At this moment, Zhou Xu had a new understanding of Wang Pengfei.
This guy is probably an 'abacus bead' type of person. If you push it, it will move, and if you don't push it, it won't move.
If you ask him to clean the house, he will just do that and never intends to take the initiative to change the status quo and do more things.
However, this also fully proves that his panel attributes are indeed in line with his level.
At the same time, one good thing about this type of people is that they are easy to control and there is no need to worry about the other party causing any big waves.
To some extent, it's a good thing.
Building a wall is a time-consuming and labor-intensive task, and it is also easy to create a prison, which will affect one's subsequent expansion and development and cause trouble for oneself. Zhou Xu currently has no intention of doing so, and there is no need to elaborate on this point.
However, with this bad idea, he thought of a problem.
"Oh, by the way, do you know how to make cement?"
"To put it simply, cement is lime and clay, and then..."
"What about the bricks?"
"Bricks are essentially clay, they just need to be fired back and forth..."
Facing Zhou Xu's questions, Wang Pengfei seemed to have suddenly found his professional expertise, and even spoke fluently, which made Zhou Xu a little curious.
"You're arguing with someone online, and you're talking about cement and bricks?"
In response to this, Wang Pengfei scratched his head a little embarrassedly.
"It's quite a wide range. Sometimes I read novels, sometimes I watch dramas, videos or live broadcasts. Anyway, there are all kinds of things."
"Anyway, wherever there is a comment section, that is your battlefield."
This guy really does nothing all day long but be a troll on the Internet, professionally arguing with others. Even Zhou Xu finds it unbelievable. What's the point of doing this?
But it doesn't matter, as long as I can provide him with help.
Although he had no plan to build a wall to enclose the village, if bricks and cement could be produced, they could be used to reinforce the buildings.
Of course, Wang Pengfei basically just gave a general idea about the ingredients, proportions, material selection, firing time and temperature. They all had to rely on themselves to try and error little by little.
But at least he already had an idea, so he put the matter on the agenda first, and when the manpower at hand was free, he would slowly start working on it.
It is probably too late this winter. Considering the current situation and calculating the time, we have to wait until the second half of next year at the earliest.
Before that, he would most likely have to face a large army of Lizardmen.
As for making cement bricks to resist the lizardmen army...
I guess it's useless.
Anyone who has witnessed the power of the Shield-Armored Dragon will know that this level of defense is simply no match for the opponent's attack.
When facing such a dangerous giant unit, it is useless to just think about passive defense and withstand the opponent's attacks.
It would be better to put more hope on their crossbows.
After all, the best defense is offense!
The arrangement for Wang Pengfei remains unchanged for the time being. What this guy needs most now is to lose weight and improve his physical fitness. Let him work as a cleaner here for a month or two.
But he didn't have time to stay here. The reason why he didn't leave immediately after completing the summoning was not only to keep an eye on the development of the Iron Mountain Mine, but also because he planned to summon again! Facing the pressure from the Lizardmen, he really did everything he could when conditions allowed.
What else can he do now? He would probably just bet on whether the summons from the Old God Altar can bring him some surprises.
If you think about it carefully, the results of the two summons were actually pretty good. Not to mention Wang Dong, Wang Pengfei was also able to play some role.
This also made Zhou Xu have more expectations for this summons.
[System prompt: Do you want to inject the power of mantra into the 'altar'? ]
【yes!】
Zhou Xu activated the altar for the third time and carried out the summoning. He conducted the entire process very efficiently.
With the continuous infusion of mantra power in his body, the mantra characters on the altar soon lit up, allowing Zhou Xu to enter the 'summoning space' again.
To be honest, Wang Pengfei's situation, to some extent, can be considered as this kid's good luck.
According to this guy's situation, he can only show some value in this primitive era where there is nothing, but he is useless in modern society.
Therefore, Zhou Xu was very cautious in choosing the third summoning, and he carefully screened the relevant information revealed in those light balls.
[Damn! Don't whip it!]
[Someone, come quickly! The horse is out of control! ]
[Don't move! Just hold on to the reins and lie on the horse's back! ]
[I'm coming! Everyone, get out of my way! ]
He didn't know if it was his luck that changed, but the information revealed by the second ball of light caught Zhou Xu's attention.
"From this situation, it seems to be related to horses? If the other party is engaged in horse breeding or horse training, then it must be useful!"
Although they now have people who raise horses, the work of raising and training horses is very superficial. They basically maintain a state where the horses are fully desensitized and not easily frightened or lose control, and can be ridden just fine.
As for the breeding of war horses, they have no experience at all.
When that time really comes, they will most likely let the war horses reproduce naturally, and whether they can successfully give birth to foals will depend somewhat on fate.
From this point of view, being able to summon a reliable and relevant practitioner is still of great value to Zhou Xu.
At least it can make his horse breeding plan on the grassland go more smoothly.
After all, they can't keep relying on catching wild horses to replenish their war horses.
But at this moment, Zhou Xu was afraid that the person he summoned was the congming who was riding on the horse and was suspected of whipping the horse with a whip, causing the horse to be frightened and out of control.
This made Zhou Xu a little conflicted.
But if you let this ball of light go, you will have to take the risk of giving it away if you look back.
Thinking of this, Zhou Xu decided to quit while he was ahead.
"It's you!"
Looking at the ball of light that was about to float away from his sight, Zhou Xu made up his mind and grabbed it.
"If the summoning goes wrong, I can just start it again!"
Since this was only the second ball of light this time, he still had a lot of mantra power in his body and his current condition was quite good, which gave him the confidence to summon it again.
Soon, a bright light shone from the altar of the old god, and a figure slowly emerged from the light...
