I really don't want to be a system

The children in the tribe looked curiously at the rope in Chen Chao's hand, and at the stone slab supported by a small stick not far away, feeling that Monk Zhang Er was puzzled.

But just as they were discussing, they saw a little bird landed on the ground and started its leisurely walk after dinner.

The children headed by Huang Yan watched the little bird stepping into the slate step by step, pecking at the small fruit under the slate, and they instantly understood what Super Chen was going to do!
Hearing a soft "pop", Chen Chao lightly pulled the rope in his hand, and the stone slab supported by the small stick lost its balance, and the little bird that was tasting the fruit was crushed to the ground.

"Wow!" The exclamation of the children became one, and they gathered around curiously.

Chen Chao bent down to remove the stone slab and took out the little bird. He sighed and missed the dustpan...

After propping up the stone slabs with small sticks, Chen Chao returned to the rabbit nest and began to pull hay from it. The children next to him also followed suit and began to make drafting ropes.

It's just that the rabbits are suffering, but fortunately, it's not winter yet, and the presence or absence of hay doesn't affect them very much, and in winter, these little rabbits will also be moved to places like caves.

Even when a female rabbit is about to give birth to a baby rabbit, she will choose to pluck her own fur to make a nest for the baby rabbit.

After making more than a dozen straw ropes one meter long, the hay in the rabbit's nest was declared to be gone, and they were still eating the fresh and tender grass slowly, unaware that their old nest had been copied. Upside down.

Taking advantage of the absence of hunting today, Chen Chao came up with the idea of ​​teaching the children to speak Mandarin. After all, education starts with babies!
Starting with what he is doing now, Chao Chen picked up the straw rope and said word by word, "Grass, rope."

Huang Yan was the first to respond, and he followed Chao Chen's example and said, "Grass, rope."

It's just that the pronunciation is still not standard, but children learn things very quickly, and they can imitate the pronunciation very much after repeating it a few times.

When someone takes the lead, the children behind will follow suit, "Grass, rope."

"Weaving, grass, rope."

"I, braid, grass, rope."

Super Chen is not greedy either. If he can learn four or five characters a day, he is very good. Now the whole tribe can hear children holding straw ropes and saying to their mothers, "I, knitting, grass, rope."

As for dad...

Moms also don't quite know who the baby's father is...

...

After weaving the straw rope, Chen Chao thought about the container. There are already several stone basins in the tribe, but these things cannot heat hot water...

I can't even burn a fish soup...

He searched several pottery-making methods in the database, but without exception, not only need to build a kiln, but also need to build several layers, and there are certain requirements for soil quality.

After constantly switching keywords to search, Chen Chao finally saw it in a corner—earth pottery making.

It's ridiculously simple, you just need to dig a deep pit, put firewood on it and burn it directly.

But it should be true. The person who discovered how to fire pottery in the early days must not have discovered it from the three-story kiln.

After finding out the method of firing, Chen Chao began to think about the clay for firing pottery. What he knew, such as kaolin, must not be found now.

Loess is also fine. Chen Chao took a look at the soil that was dug out with a wooden stick. Although he was not very satisfied, he could still use it. At most, he would smash some small hard lumps with stones later to remove these impurities visible to the naked eye. .

He dug two pits, one for firing pottery, about 60cm long, and one for processing pottery clay, which is more casual.

The people who dealt with the moa corpses by the small river looked over curiously, and One Eye was among them. He was holding a small stick, and while handling the moa's intestines, he watched Super Chen playing with the mud.

Chen Chao first squeezed out 3 straight small pots, about 15-20cm in length. If there were too many pits dug, they would not fit in. To make larger pottery, it is estimated that we must build a kiln or dig a bigger pit.

Otherwise, such a small open-air pit would not even dare to think about it. But this time, I just hold the mentality of experimenting.

He turned his head and looked around, because the process of making pottery was relatively long, and Super Chen was either digging a hole or playing with mud, everyone didn't care after a few glances.

So Chen Chao saw that there were no people watching, and he didn't feel any psychological burden, and it didn't matter if he failed.If it succeeds, consider making it on a large scale next time if you have time.

He first found a relatively flat stone, and then found a piece of wood with no protrusions as a rolling pin. First, he squeezed out the required pot wall, and then rolled it with a wooden stick to almost the same thickness, and then made a round bottom.

As for why it is a straight pot instead of directly adding other more complicated shapes, there are several reasons, one is that he does not know how to do it.

The second is that the pot is simple. Use a piece of clay to form a cylinder, and then connect the negative film. After the connection is completed, it will be a pot after processing.

3. The pot needs to be used now, and it can be used now. Boiling hot water, cooking fish soup, and stewing meat all need a pot.

Although he now has the golden finger that he can be online at any time, but finding suitable information does not mean that he can make it immediately.

Many things that take time to accumulate still belong to them, they will be seen at first sight, and they will be discarded as soon as they are done.For this, Super Chen was already mentally prepared.

After all, his skill points are in planting and hunting...

After pinching the straight pot, Chen Chao found a cool place to dry them in the shade. Not all clay embryos need to be dried in the shade, but he is not sure whether this one can be exposed to the sun, or it is safer to dry it in the shade.

The pot that was kneaded in the morning, when Chao Chen went to see it in the afternoon, he felt that it was almost ready after touching the mud. After all, it was not a big thing, and he was not sure about the standard of drying in the shade, so he could only experiment and test.

After checking it and making sure that the wall of the pot is as thick as possible, put hay in another pit, cover the grass with a layer of fine firewood, then put a layer of firewood, and finally put the mud embryo on the firewood. above.

Then cover it with small firewood and hay, and start the fire from above.During the period, some flammable twigs were continuously added.

After the bamboo chips were burned, Chen Chao was still worried that the temperature was not enough.Added another layer of firewood.

After waiting for more than two hours with anticipation, Super Chen even went down to the river to pick out a basket of fish in a rattan basket and picked out two palm-sized ones.

Use a sharp stone to cut open the belly of the fish, remove the viscera and gills, and then scrape off the scales, and keep them for later use.

Two hours later, when the ashes were dug open, the color of pottery could already be seen. Chen Chao almost shed tears. It is easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal...

He can finally drink hot water!
