Orcs’ Time Through Time
Chapter 64: Burning stones and gifts
Wake up early in the morning, Luo Lei and Canaan have already divided their work. Canaan takes people to hunt, and Luo Lei takes people to chop wood to prepare a house.
This is also our practice. I don't need to make arrangements for general things. They know what to do. I don't want to interfere too much.
But today I don't plan that way. So before they left, I called them back.
I discussed with Canaan, they used to use force to hunt, although they can get enough food, but we don't have so much manpower and time to do this now. We still have a lot to do, and I am not interested in most of the dead or wounded prey obtained from hunting. Therefore, I suggest that they wear a stone **** or something first to dig a few traps that are enough for the buffalo to fall, and then follow the hunting method of Luo Lei before, hurry up and trap the prey.
It’s not been long since Canaan to the Hittites, so I haven’t seen what a trap looks like, so I can only dig a hole in the ground, then put a few sticks on it, and sprinkle some uprooted grass, Luo Ray also took a stone to Canaan to demonstrate how to drive the prey into the trap.
Canaan didn't understand at first, but after seeing Luo Lei's presentation, he quickly nodded in agreement, even Hongda beside him agreed. Although they can see that they are a little uncomfortable with things like traps, after all, people here still admire force more. But they also understand that we do not have a lot of manpower and time to do hunting. It is now July, and there is no time to grow anything, and there are no high-yield sweet potatoes and potatoes found here. We need to prepare enough food to prepare for the winter. At the same time, we have to make houses and fences around the tribe. There are too many things to do. If you can reduce some, reduce some.
Therefore, Canaan also decided that he would only take Lukas and four other people to hunt, and the rest followed Luo Lei to log.
I also discussed with Luo Lei, I plan to build a house here that is better to set fires and live in a more comfortable way. That kind of house only needs wood structure, not all wood, but at the same time it needs other things. Kind of material. So I have to prepare other materials slowly. Although logging requires more people, I also need someone to help me. So I suggest that Luo Lei first lead someone to enclose the entire valley with a sharpened wooden fence about two meters high. As for the other unused woods, they were shipped back to me to dry and make firewood. The principle of logging is still in accordance with the principle we established in the Hindus before. In addition, Monte and Ley and Hongda helped me with the preparations I needed to do.
Although he didn't know what I was going to do, Lorey still agreed to my request with confidence.
I also arranged a task for Aman, which is to ask him and Alin to take a few older children within the tribe to find as much wild vegetables we can eat, including the wild barley and wheat we have grown before. And collect as many crops as possible.
But obviously, Rona and Yejia are reluctant to do this, even Ari is reluctant to do it. In addition, Luo Lei and Canaan also thought that they could start to exercise, so I had to agree to one of them to go logging with Luo Lei, and the other to go hunting with his Abba Canaan.
Ayuan originally wanted to come out to help, but I didn’t dare to let him come out when I saw his stomach, so his task became to stay at home and boil the water, and bring us the lovely A Xing, although A Xing Already half a year old, the habit here is that it can be left alone at home. But I still warn them that there are not many children here. On the one hand, we must step up the development of the tribe and attract more people to join our tribe. On the other hand, we must protect our next generation, treat and educate them more carefully. they. Otherwise, by the time we die, our tribe will not have many people, and if our tribe does not thrive, our tribe will cease to exist.
Everyone also understood that what I was talking about was reality, so they all persuaded A Yuan to take A Xing, who had already started crawling everywhere, at home.
In addition, I told him that his task was to look around the tent to see if there were any medicinal materials that could be used. He finally saw me and agreed. Although there seems to be something in the eyes.
One morning, I took Hongda, Ley, and Monte with ox carts to pull the loess exposed from the collapsed gap.
While digging the loess, I was just a little bit careful not to get the salt ore, and also to avoid the black soil. After all, the black soil is not sticky, and it is better for planting. Rather than mixing them with black soil, I would rather use them to grow things.
They were also very careful in doing things. While transporting the white sandy loess to the ox cart, they also carefully shoveled the black soil to the other side-I told them that I am going to plant a few trees here, which will serve as the tribe's sentry. They even carefully put the black soil into one piece according to my plan.
Although the hunters did not rush back at noon, we only ate some leftover jerky, but everyone worked very hard.
By the end of the afternoon, we had transported the soil three times, and the loess surprised the hunters when they came back.
But the hunters also surprised me. They drove back two cows and four sheep, as well as a creature that I hadn’t seen. Although some people were slightly injured while harvesting their prey, it was such a reward. Also let everyone boil!
Even Canaan, who has always been very calm, has repeatedly told everyone about the benefits of traps. From time to time, he admires Luo Lei and me for the mixed eyes that do not know what emotions are mixed.
Although this is something that makes me very happy, what makes me most happy is the black things on Ye Jia's body!
At first I didn't notice anything on Ye Jia, because his animal skin clothes were really dirty. I just don't know why, Ye Jia and Ari are usually in a good relationship. That day because Ye Jia rubbed him, A Rui cried and ran to me crying that Ye Jia was a big bad guy and soiled his cotton clothes. I realized that Ye Jia’s clothes seemed to be stained very importantly. thing!
According to Ye Jia's recollection, the pit they dug was about three to four meters deep and about six meters long and wide. Originally, he would not get the thing, because it was almost as deep as the ankle, and it was actually soil or something, and he was actually not dirty. While saying this, he secretly looked at it and didn’t. Ari sitting beside me happily.
Seeing me signal him to continue, he continued, because a cow suddenly ran wildly, so he had to go up and pester the cow, and then rub against the thing on the cow's body.
Seeing that he seemed to hesitate because A Rui disliked him for being dirty, I smiled at him and told him that another day I would let someone make him a new dress, and he could also change his clothes. I told him his clothes. The things that got on it are very important. Ask him to call Canaan over and ask them to go back to the place where they dug the trap after they finish their meal and bring back two bags of black things like that.
Although the logging team did not have amazing achievements on the hunting side, their speed was not slow. In a little more than a day and a half, they had already completed the fences of the valley near the foot of the mountain, on that edge. There are also piles of wooden piles with branches cut off, which can be used to frame the house. The rest was later dragged back in an ox cart to be used as firewood.
But these are nothing. What made me most happy was a stone with a metallic luster and irregular shape, and a strange pattern on it-meteorite.
After arriving here, although the bone knives here are already very good craftsmanship, the stone tools used for me are already the best Luo Lei can do. Tools made of iron and wood are already much better than those made of stone, but my big regret is that there is no iron.
Even a broken kitchen knife is better than a bone knife, and the worst iron-headed arrow must be more lethal than a wooden arrow. Some things, such as fried fish and meat and burning tung oil, barbed wire and iron pans, are better than slate. And clay pots!
I just wanted to hug Luo Lei and express my excitement. In fact, I did hug him! He gave me the gift that made me most happy in so long! Although he didn't give me many gifts, here, the only two gifts that made me very happy were him.
The first is the calf he gave me. This calf is now one of the main laborers in our tribe; the second is the meteorite he gave me now!
I have had the privilege of visiting several meteorite iron collections. Although I don’t know much about meteorites and meteorite irons, I can see that this is a meteorite iron with more than 80% or 90% iron. It is not a medium iron meteorite or a meteorite mixed with too many impurities. What I am even more honored is that I once visited the production process of Longquan Sword with our most senior leader. I was also fortunate to have seen the Malay Kris sword passed down to us by a business partner. , I was also fortunate to hear his wife talk about the general process of how her family made the Malay Kris sword. I even wanted to buy a meteorite for myself on a whim, but that is not something that can be done with the financial resources and interest. Besides, I don't have the financial resources yet, so I can only give it up in the end.
Although I don't know how to find ores and smelt, and I was not so lucky to give me a piece of meteorite from the sky to play with, but now there are ready-made materials, I can still try it.
Even if it can't be a sword, it's okay to be a wok or a better kitchen knife!
Therefore, from the beginning of the meal, I held the stone and kept studying. Xin Mu also laughed at me because Luo Lei gave me too few gifts, so I was so excited to pick a stone for me.
I really want to refute that he didn't even give Aman a stone, but seeing him carefully help Aman feed the broth to A Xing, I still shrugged and resisted the desire to tease him. Continue to happily do my majestic dream of holding the world's first Longquan sword. Luo Lei couldn't help but rubbed two more strands of my hair.
Because the required materials are basically complete, I no longer hesitate about how to replace them with other materials. The so-called rich is bold. I also started to discuss with Luo Lei, and started to follow the mountain to find a higher and flat one. In some places, the land was leveled, and the things needed for the house began to be prepared.
While asking me in detail what I need to do and how to do it. Luo Lei also gave me some suggestions from time to time. Soon, we had a general plan on how to level the land, how to lay the foundation, and how to burn the kiln. We were also more clear about when and what to do.
It can be said that Luo Lei is actually much better than me in planning and management. He can figure out many details that I did not think of. He can think of something better than me, and he will cover his head when he is interested. The people are more practical.
While we were talking about the sky while we were making the plank that I wanted for mold making together, the Canaan father and son who went out to carry the dirty thing I wanted and Lukas who accompanied him came back. Up.
It took them four or five hours to go back and forth, and the sun was almost down. The people who continued to log and make fences in the afternoon also gradually returned, and it was time to start preparing food.
I took the two heavy bags that they had handed over, and walked to Aman and the others, who were preparing barbecue and soup.
Because the trap has been exposed to the sun for about ten hours a day, the surface soil has actually been relatively dry.
The ones I took out were all 70% to 80% dry, and they started to burn when they were put into the fire.
Everyone was a little puzzled at first, what I did when I threw the stone into the fire, and even watched me burn the stone dumbfounded.
But as the stone put into the fire slowly turned red and kept burning, even I asked Aman and Alin to reduce the amount of wood that was still burning. It was even redder than the wood burned, and it lasted longer. When the flame was even hotter than the firewood, everyone was surprised again!
I looked at everyone's surprised and curious faces, and saw everyone touching the magical black stone still in the two animal skin bags with their hands, and I couldn't help but laugh.
Yes, this is coal, the coal that was once called black gold and industrial food! Whether it is the next life, the things I will do in the future, or the future development, there will be a huge boost of coal! It is a kind of coal that can be encountered but not sought in this primitive society where prospecting and mining are almost at a zero development stage!
The firelight was shining on my face, even though there was no sunset at this time, I think my eyes and face must be red too, or the firelight is clearer in my eyes.
Who can say that when you lose something, you must be losing? Who knows, when you lose something, in a sense, it may also open another door for you!
I don’t deny that when I left the Hindus, I also had uncertainty, retreat, and even the idea of compromise. After all, people are used to one place. How difficult is it to change? What's more, they are Chinese who are accustomed to relocating their homeland!
But at this moment, I am more convinced than anyone that we will live a better life! We will become stronger and stronger! Even if there are not many people, we don’t even have houses, and we don’t have enough manpower to do these things, but as long as we persevere, we will be able to live better and better.
We must be able to achieve a new story in this land.
