Reborn stone tools to farm
Chapter 3 Baskets and Pottery
It doesn't matter whether the deerskin tanning is successful or not, but no one knows that this is Tang Zheng's determination and commitment, and he made a goal of protecting his tribe against the starry sky.
Only when there is a goal in life will there be motivation and meaning.
The next day, the clansmen set off at dawn, the men hunted and the women gathered. Tang Zheng took the deerskin given by the old grandmother to the stream, remembering that the old grandmother gave her the deerskin yesterday without saying anything.
Perhaps the old grandmother was considered a wise man. Tang Zheng thought that if the primitive people knew about investing, the old grandmother would be considered a small gambler, but more of it should come from the trust of the blood.
There is a stone slab in the cave, engraved with a picture or a word drawn by several lines, like a tree.
That is the totem of the tribe, and the tribe calls themselves ----- wood tribe.
Tang Zheng thought about what to do, found a few larger stones, and spread the deerskin in the creek to hold it down.
She used to like to play with all kinds of things and read messy books, as long as she didn't have to take an exam, she liked them all, and somehow she understood some weird things, and sometimes she didn't know when she read them.
Tang Zheng has seen a little bit of tanning animal skins before, but they all use chemical raw materials. I vaguely remember that the original tanning processes include water tanning, soil tanning, smoke and oil tanning, etc. Tang Zheng is going to try the next two kind.
The deerskin needs to be soaked for a long time, so Tang Zheng picked up the thin vines in the bushes when she was bored. When she used it yesterday, she found that this plant was quite strong. It might be good to make a basket.
I found a lot of thin vines half a centimeter thick and dragged them back to the open space in front of the cave. The weight was really heavy.
Tang Zheng wiped off the sweat that didn't exist on his forehead, thought for a while and then called Zhi who was watching curiously from the side.
After pondering for a long time, Tang Zheng didn't know how to introduce Luokung, a new thing, and finally just sat down and said to Zhi: "Follow me."
I took four thin vines and placed them on the ground to form a rice character, and then folded half of them and added them in. It was exactly nine frames, and the even numbered ones would go along the sides, and only the odd numbered ones could make the two adjacent floors stagger.
Insert the thin vines one by one. Tang Zheng has never played with them a few times, and the branches are also very fast. The speed of the two is actually almost the same. The two children are playing around by pulling themselves in the pile of thin vines next to them .
After an unknown amount of time, Tang Zheng looked at the angle of the tree shadow, and it was about two hours.The basket was made to be half her height, that is, sixty centimeters. Tang Zheng folded the extra thin vines back through the gaps to tighten them.
The branches next to her also followed Tang Zheng's. Her basket was a section shorter than Tang Zheng's. There were gaps in some places that were not properly dealt with, but it was barely usable.
Tang Zheng praised Zhi, took her basket and began to add straps, which was actually just tying two thin vines to it.
"Hazel, is this for holding things?" Zhi's eyes are always bright when she is excited, she is a very cute little girl, if she can clean herself up.
"Yes." Tang Zheng answered her, but continued to do things with her head down.
"What's it called?"
"basket."
"Ah! With the baskets, I can bring back more fruits! Every time it's the fruit season, I can't find enough, but it's okay..." Zhi said a lot, his face flushed with excitement.
Primitive people are indeed smart, and their brain capacity has not mutated into modern people in more than 1 years. If you explain the use of something to her, it can be used in many places.
Speaking of which, they are also divided into four seasons now, but they are the four seasons of rain, thunder, fruit and snow, which are vivid.
Hearing Zhi's impression, Tang Zheng quickly tied up the suspenders for her to try, put the basket on her back, and Zhi walked around happily, and ran to show the old grandmother, who smiled and touched her head.
After a while, the women who went out to collect came back, bringing back fresh fruits in their arms.Because there is no means of transportation, they have to go back and forth three times a day, and there is no time to go to places a little further away. Fortunately, nature is always generous during the fruit season.
Zhi showed them the newly made baskets and received unanimous praise and surprises. Before he had time to rest, he set off with the baskets in high spirits.
The old grandmother smiled relievedly, maybe this snow season will be better than before.
It was still early, Tang Zheng entrusted the two children to the old grandmother, and took the branch to the river.
Primitives do not have the habit of taking a bath, and corrections need to be made slowly, so let's start with the branches first.
Let Zhi submerge in the water obediently, but Tang Zheng dug up the mud by the stream by herself. She was going to try to make a pottery bowl, which would make everything easier.
The wet mud by the stream is always more viscous, but Tang Zheng is not sure whether these can really make pottery, and he has to try everything to know.
After digging out a small pile of wet mud, Tang Zheng used the wooden stick he picked up to pry some dry mud into it, mixing it to a similar humidity so that it would not be too rotten.It took a lot of time to grind the mud pile with hands and pick out the stones and dead leaves of plants and trees inside.
Looking at the sun above his head, it was almost noon. Tang Zheng washed his hands in the stream and asked Zhi to take off the animal skin to take a bath.
Zhi had no sense of shyness, so he took off the animal skin in two or three strokes, and the outline of the ribs on the side of the thin body could be seen faintly.
As an adult with a 24-year-old soul, even though Tang Zheng liked girls before, she had no interest in the little loli, and only thought that she was cute and lively.
Tang Zheng ran over the arm that had pulled the branch with her fingertips, and rubbed a strip of mud, and then asked her to learn to clean it by herself little by little.
While Zhi was scrubbing and washing, Tang Zheng pulled her hair to help her untangle it. Sometimes it hurt a little when it got to the knot, and Zhi would groan a little.
After working for a while before washing it off, Tang Zheng also tied up Zhi's hair with a branch, and then saw her looking at the mirror in the stream in a daze, but she was actually a pretty and lovely little girl.
Tang Zheng picked up his own mud and walked back, and Zhi followed after he realized it: "Zhen, what are you going to do?"
"Hmm..." Tang Zheng thought about it and still didn't know what to say, "Just try something."
"Want me to help you?"
"No, it's a little dirty, you just cleaned it."
Hearing what Tang Zheng said, Zhi probably also likes to be clean, and he didn't want to participate in new things anymore, so he volunteered to weave baskets again.
Tang Zheng borrowed a stone slab from Shan, and troubled him to build a fire to help beat the mud brought back.
Shan's strength is not small, and he seemed to be a very powerful hunter before, but it's a pity that he is limping now.
Soon Tang Zheng squeezed the clay, it was much finer than before, so Shan stopped, took a piece of clay and squeezed a small bowl on a flat stone slab, the mouth of the bowl was only the size of an adult's fist.
I didn't knead too much. I only made three Tang Zhengs and stopped. I put the three mud embryos in a place a little far away from the fire and slowly dried them. Then I took the mountain to the nearby woods. .
As the saying goes, if you want to get rich, you must first cut down trees. Tang Zheng is very self-aware. It is impossible to cut down trees with a stone ax with her little arms and legs!So he pulled up the mountain to do coolies with peace of mind.
Probably because of the good luck of the heavens, Tang Zheng found a small dead tree in a short while, the diameter of which was the size of two fists. It hadn't rained in the past two days, so it was not a big problem to move it back and make firewood directly.
Shan raised the stone ax once and the tree trunk was cut open. After swinging it for a while, the trunk was broken in half. He let the broken tree trunk fall to the ground beside him.
Shan split off the forked branches, and dragged the whole trunk back. It was a bit awkward and difficult for her to limp. Tang Zheng picked up some small branches and followed. The two adjacent trees pried off the trunk into about half a meter of wood.
Tang Zheng erected the wooden sections and drew them with a stroke, and asked Shan to split them into four equal pieces of firewood and pile them beside the campfire.
The two of them worked for a long time. Tang Zheng pinched the clay embryo. The outside was already hardened, but she didn't care much about whether the inside was dry or not.
Spread the bonfire a bit and throw three mud embryos in to cover it, Tang Zheng added some more firewood and blew on it to make the fire flourish, then ignored them.
Sitting by the campfire in a daze for a while, Tang Zheng always felt that he had forgotten something, and it took him a while to remember that the animal skin was still soaking in the stream.Slowly walking over to fish out the animal skin, Tang Zheng was always in a hurry to do things, and she probably didn't bother to run when the sky fell.
Spread the two pieces of animal skins on the ground, and Tang Zheng asked Shan to scrape off the fur and the remaining meat with stone flakes.
The stone flakes were ground before the mountain, and they can be cut into small things, and they feel good when used. I can't help but praise the good craftsmanship of the mountain.
The two of them scraped the softened animal skin, and only half of it was done when the person who went out came back.
The women brought back two baskets full of trophies, and the men were a bit unlucky today, dejected, with only two pheasants in their hands.
Tang Zheng ran over to have a look, and found that both were hens, one was dead and the other could still flop twice.After asking her grandmother, Tang Zheng kept the one alive as a reward for making a basket for her.
Although no prey was hunted, the fruits were harvested abundantly, nearly twice as much as usual, and the tribe happily shared today's dinner by the campfire.
Yesterday's deer ate a third, and tomorrow they can eat another day. Except for nuts and some plant roots, there is little left over. In winter, that is, the snow season, they can only rely on these plants to feed their hunger.
Today, there was no one grilling meat, and earth-fired meat was popular. Tang Zheng got the five-fist meat this time, and because the basket was so great, her grandmother gave it to her.
Tang Zheng ate a pear, it was neither big nor sweet, and a little sour.After eating a punch of meat, I still eat it with my grandmother, and the children's appetite is not too big.
Shan and Zhi also got a lot of food because of their help, so Tang Zheng wrapped the leftover meat in leaves and put it away to see his own mud embryo.Pulling open the fire, the mud embryos inside have burned red, two of them are broken, and only one is still successful, because the shape of the firewood is a little out of shape, but it is still usable, that is to say, the mud by the stream can be burned. Tao's.
Only when there is a goal in life will there be motivation and meaning.
The next day, the clansmen set off at dawn, the men hunted and the women gathered. Tang Zheng took the deerskin given by the old grandmother to the stream, remembering that the old grandmother gave her the deerskin yesterday without saying anything.
