The God Game: From Creation of Man

Chapter 12 The Primitive Fisherman

wow~
The lake was tumbling.

Under the sunshine, Li Xiang carefully washed his body with the lake water.

Not far away, a few strong men were collecting some mussels and better-shaped stones from the shore.

In the water, Li Xiang wiped his face, looked at the sun, and looked at the surrounding open mountains and forests. He couldn't help but let out a long roar, which attracted the attention of many animals drinking by the water.

"Finally, finally able to relax a little bit."

Li Xiang was in a very good mood at this moment.

Under the arrangement of the past few days, the situation of the tribe is much better than before.

The heavy boulder that weighed on my heart was finally a little easier.

Food, heat source, the two biggest headaches have been greatly relieved.

I finally have time to organize my life.

After the greenhouse was finished, Li Xiang hurriedly brought someone down the mountain to take a good shower, washing away the stench and sweat smell that had been on his body for the past few days.

Now I can take a good shower.

After a while, a blizzard came, and the lake would freeze over by then, so it was impossible for me to take such a happy bath.

"prophet!"

"How do you do this thing!"

"I feel, it's so difficult!"

Not far away, because of the yelling, the little wooden stick in his hand was thrown out impatiently.

It seemed that Li Xiang was asking him to do delicate work, so he screamed in a hurry.

Li Xiang shook his head, feeling a little helpless.

Because this guy has high combat effectiveness, but his brain is not very easy to use.

Compared with the women in the tribe, they are really stupid.

They came to the lake today not just to take a bath, Li Xiang also had many other arrangements.

Although the source of food has been relieved, they still need to increase the source of food as much as possible.

The cunning rabbit has three caves, let alone humans like them.

"Stupid guy, don't do it, come and collect clam shells, you should be able to do this."

Li Xiang spat and continued to arrange.

After a brief rinse, Li Xiang came out of the water. He didn't plan to stay in the water for too long, as the water wasn't too safe.

Today they will try to make simple hooks and hanging lines.

After the blizzard came, even the vibrant Garden of Eden would enter a situation of extreme food scarcity.

For the plantation and hunting on the mountain, there is no better direction to advance for the time being.

Li Xiang set his sights on the lake in the Garden of Eden.

The lake in the Garden of Eden is very large, and there are many types of creatures in it, not only groups of flying fish, but also many dangerous piranhas.

Sometimes when looking at the shore, just by taking a casual look, you can see many fish swimming wantonly in the water.

Many carnivorous animals in the Garden of Eden also depended on the fish swimming in the water for a living.

People in the tribe also tried fishing, but because they had no tools and the efficiency was too low, it was better for them to go hunting in the mountains, so they seldom did it.

Now Li Xiang is leading them to make some hooks and hanging wires in the most primitive way.

With tools, fishing will become very easy after simple learning.

Even after the land is frozen and the lake freezes in the future, they can still get food in the water with the help of the boom.

In this way, the pressure of food will be almost completely eliminated.

"Come on, take a good look at it, I will do it again, you study hard."

"We must learn, otherwise everyone will be hungry by then!"

Sitting on the shore, Li Xiang checked what they had made, and could only shake his head helplessly.

Too bad.

Their hanging wire is made of a kind of tree vine.

The fiber of this kind of tree vine is very tough. Li Xiang chose the slender part of it, picked it up and dried it. He simply made a loop on the stick and put it inside, and it was done. Hanging rods and hanging wires.

After all, it is the primitive era, so you don’t need to pay too much attention, as long as you can use it simply.

While speaking, Li Xiang cut off the vine in his hand with a sharpened shell.

Then he moved very slowly and made a simple buckle, trying to let the few people around him see clearly.

After making the boom and fishing line, put these things aside, then take a brown bear rib from the side, put it on the ground and start preparing the hook.

Different from the previous casual ones, the hooks are a bit more particular.

In this era when the Stone Age has not yet fully entered, it is obviously impossible to make too sophisticated hooks.

Li Xiang could only try to make hooks according to the way Eskimos used bones to make hooks in his memory.

Eskimos are humans living near the North Pole, and their food sources are mainly fishing and hunting seals.

Most of the hooks they make are made of animal bones.

This is a very interesting production method, similar to Li Xiang's previously made stone tools, but there is a slight difference.

First, they have to beat large animal bones into smaller, long strips of suitable shape.

Then first use the hard dragon scale to drill a small hole at the upper point to facilitate the insertion of the fishing line in the future.

Then, it is a relatively laborious work, to grind this bone into the most basic shape of the fishhook bit by bit.

Especially the sharp part of the hook should be ground very carefully to make the hook as sharp as possible.

After this step is completed, thread the needle and thread, connect the hook and fishing line, and a simple fishing tackle is ready.

Simple, crude, but practical.

The only fly in the ointment seems to be that the durability of this fishing tackle is not ideal. After using it more times, either the thread will break or the hook will break.

But in this day and age, it is not easy to make fishing tackle, and Li Xiang doesn't care too much about it.

It takes a long time to make a fishing tackle.

After all, it is easy to say, but it is very laborious to do.

Especially the shape of the fishhook, these primitive people have never seen this thing, and it is impossible for them to understand it just by listening to the description.

Li Xiang had to do it himself, and then teach them to let them learn.

After the hunters in the tribe learn to fish, if there is a heavy snowstorm one day and they cannot hunt prey, they can try to find a location for ice fishing.

The resilience of human beings is still terrifying.

Like the Eskimos, even in such a cold place near the North Pole, they can live for nearly 2000 years and reproduce tribes.

Li Xiang didn't think that this blizzard could knock down humans.

"Okay, do you understand?"

"If you understand it, continue to make fishing tackle and make more, we will use it in the future."

"Don't be like some people who read it four times and haven't learned it yet!"

With that said, Li Xiang looked at the cause of some anxiety.

This guy is now his full-time bodyguard. He is tall and powerful, but he is a bit clumsy.

"what!"

With a roar, he turned his head and jumped into the river, but he was not seen floating for a long time.

A few minutes later, just when everyone was a little worried about him, the guy finally rushed up from the water.

I saw a fish in his mouth, and he looked at everyone fiercely.

"Look! Fish!"
