Throne of Vientiane Civilization

Chapter 149 New stage and new discovery

Take the hyena queen and the wild antelope carcass, and go back to the camp first.

Zhou Xu, who returned to the camp, called someone over directly.

"The hyena queen's body can be processed, and the wild antelope's body can also be processed together."

After ordering this matter, Zhou Xu turned his head and returned to his animal skin tent here.

At this moment, the cub was still sleeping soundly in the swaddle of the tent.

Zhou Xu was also very evil in his heart.

Getting into the tent, Zhou Xu sat cross-legged in front of the cub, and opened the swaddle. From birth to now, almost two days later, the hair on the cub's body, which has been sleeping, has become thicker.

Zhou Xu tried to fiddle with it a few times to see if he could wake it up. During this process, he made more and more movements, and finally, he simply grabbed one of the cub's hind legs and picked it up.

But it's useless at all, this little guy sleeps like a dead pig, no! Sleeping is worse than a dead pig!

If he could not still hear the gentle breathing sound, he would have wondered if the little guy was dead.

"Forget it, go on to sleep."

Zhou Xu muttered speechlessly, and wrapped the little guy back in his swaddling clothes.

"I want to see how long you can sleep, this newborn cub really doesn't need to eat?"

After getting out of the tent, it was just past noon at this moment. Although a battle had just ended before, and the centaur had just negotiated to join forces in the morning, Zhou Xu didn't plan to relax this afternoon.

As I said before, this situation is too rare and hard-won. He must seize the time to develop himself and improve the strength of the tribe at the same time!

With the pretext of hunting down the hyena people, Zhou Xu arranged for Li Ce to sit in the grassland camp and manage the affairs in the camp, while he personally brought Zhou Zhongshan, Ye Jinghong, and a group of tribe members who were still able to move on the grassland. Explored.

After all, at this moment, there is nothing in the grassland camp that requires him to stay in the camp. With Li Ce in charge, it is more than enough.

Under this premise, it is currently the best solution for him to lead the team in person, with his 'eye of insight', and to clearly improve the efficiency of exploration.

The core purpose of this operation, of course, is not to find the hyena people, but to find livestock for their tribe to improve transportation efficiency.

In this area, wild antelopes are the grassland animals they have discovered, and they have a certain size and size.

But Zhou Xu's goal this time was not on the wild antelope.

Although the wild antelopes have good speed, their stamina and strength are not enough at all. Let alone let them carry goods, even if they are used to carry a person, they probably will not be able to run a few steps before they will be out of breath.

Of course, these did not prevent Ye Jinghong and the others from hunting them.

This is not just to obtain leather and meat from the wild antelope, but more importantly, their leader has taken a fancy to the pair of long horns of the wild antelope.

When he discovered the centaur before, Zhou Xu had already noticed that the bows and arrows in the hands of those centaurs were horn bows made of antelope horns.

The antelope horn is strong and tough, which is a good material for making bows.

Now that the material is in front of him, Zhou Xu certainly doesn't mind taking some back to study it.

If nothing else, the performance of this animal horn bow is definitely better than that of a bamboo bow.

It’s just cheaper than bamboo bows and easy to mass-produce.

As for whether these wild antelopes should be captured and raised artificially...

Zhou Xu had no such idea at all.

One reason is that he has limited manpower now, and he wants to use the limited manpower to raise livestock that improves transportation efficiency. The wild antelope does not meet his needs.

On the other hand, because of raising wild antelopes, in Zhou Xu's opinion, the price/performance ratio is very limited.

In terms of edible meat and usable leather and aggregate, most animals in this world meet this requirement.

As for, aside from these common basic values, what value can wild antelope have?

That is the pair of horns that can be used to make horn bows.

But this Zhou Xu had already thought clearly before.

He doesn't mind making a few animal horn bows if he has the materials, but it's not as cheap as a bamboo bow and can be mass-produced.

In the future, he will form an archer troop with hundreds or even thousands of people. Can he use horn bows?

From the current point of view, bamboo bows must be used. After upgrading, wooden bows with suitable materials will also be chosen.

In this way, the pair of horns of the wild antelope are far from enough in Zhou Xu's eyes.

Under this premise, it is still troublesome to raise.

It must not be able to grow indoors, as for the outdoors...

This wild antelope's jumping ability is also quite good, it can easily jump out of a fence that is usually circled.

Like the artificially raised mutton sheep before crossing, if they want to get them here, they must first find a good breed, and then carry out long-term domestication. Wild antelope is not a good choice no matter what.

When I met them in the wild, I just picked up a few of them and got some related resources. There is no need to waste energy and get them specially.

And in the process, Zhou Xu and the others inevitably had a few face-to-face encounters with the centaurs.

There is no way, the wild antelope on the grassland is the main source of food for the centaurs.

Although they had already negotiated to join forces before, this kind of alliance itself has no binding force, and it basically depends on the ideas and characters of both parties.

Now that they ran into each other again, Zhou Xu also calmly signaled Zhou Zhongshan and the others to tense up.

Fortunately, the centaurs headed by Drogo had no intention of repenting. After seeing Zhou Xu and the others, they just nodded and greeted from a distance, and then continued to chase their prey.

During the period, they didn't touch the wild antelope that Zhou Xu and the others shot, and the overall performance was very harmonious, which also made Zhou Xu feel more at ease.

"Okay, everyone, hurry up and try to explore more areas before dark."

After watching the centaurs chase the antelopes away, Zhou Xu led his subordinates to continue exploring.

[Eye of insight! 】

Entering a new area, with Zhou Xu present, it is natural to directly open the "Eye of Insight" to scan around first, which is enough to greatly improve their exploration efficiency.

But even so, in the first three days, they basically found nothing new until noon on the fourth day...

At this moment, the exploration team headed by Zhou Xu has already traveled a considerable distance.

Under the scanning of Zhou Xu's "eye of insight", through the thick grass, a group of creatures covered with black fur, with a broad chest, thick limbs, and a pair of horns growing on their big heads broke into Zhou Xu. His vision made his heart beat faster...

[I found it, the herd of bison living on the grassland! 】
