章節 639: The true hinterland

Materials that resemble cement weren’t actually rare. In ancient China, there was even a method of constructing city walls that involved blending chicken blood, glutinous rice and clay. Although that method wasn’t feasible for large-scale projects due to its high costs, the city walls it held weren’t inferior to present era cement. Hence, such a material being employed by these Ndipaya aborigines wasn’t an exceptionally peculiar scene.

Instead, Sheyan wasn’t amazed by the material of that sandbox, but its contents.

The outer perimeter of the sandbox exhibited a dried purplish-brown colour, of which 7-8 sporadically separated and slightly elevated regions were demarcated out.

With one look, Sheyan could tell that dry purplish brown regions represented the outer reaches of the Kijuju Marshland.

Amongst those 7-8 slightly elevated regions, miniature huts crafted with straw and wood could be seen. Evidently, those represented the villages of the exiled Ndipaya barbarians.
