Prehistoric husband and wife salted fish turn over

Chapter 59 Wonders and great discoveries! 02

Quickly climbed to the inflorescence of the sugar palm tree, clamped the trunk with both legs, hugged the tree with only one hand, and dragged the knife with the other hand to stroke the inflorescence, and immediately saw the juice seeping out slowly.Sun Zhixin impatiently stretched out his mouth to suck it, only to feel the sweetness in his mouth, the taste is exactly the taste of the inflorescence of the sugar palm tree!And it was sweeter than anything he had tasted before!Just by looking at it, it is as thick as sugar juice, which does not weaken its name of sugar coconut at all.

"Don't eat indiscriminately!" Qi Geli knew Sun Zhixin's ability, but he still couldn't help reminding him.

Sun Zhixin laughed loudly on the tree: "It's okay, I know it!"

Stretching out the knife, he cut the opening more severely, took out the sports water bottle from the backpack and drank all the water in it, then stuffed its spout directly into the opening, and took the water secreted by the inflorescences. juice.

After discovering and confirming this thing, Sun Zhixin couldn't help laughing. Amidst the laughter, he hurriedly climbed down the tree, knocked twice on the trunk with the handle of his knife, and said, "Did Qi Geli say that Just camp here?"

Qi Geli nodded, and Sun Zhixin said: "Okay, let's eat it tonight!"

Tarim was stunned: "Eat trees?"

"Yes, eating trees!"

Everyone was stunned and didn't believe it. Tarim knew too little about Sun Zhixin's strange abilities. Goben and Alpha ate a lot of mushrooms, but they still couldn't imagine people chewing tree trunks and leaves. Only Zigley believed it He looked at Sun Zhixin and smiled.

"I've seen other trees of this kind have fruit, can they eat?" Coben asked.

"You can eat it if you are not afraid of death." Sun Zhixin said with a smile: "We really eat the tree, not the fruit. Its fruit is not edible. The fruit is not only poisonous, but also corrodes and hurts people. Well, it's not completely impossible, it's just troublesome .”

Brother Ben was dumbfounded, and squinted at the rough and hard tree trunk, imagining the scene of biting it with his teeth... Uh, it will definitely hurt the tooth.

Zigli went up and patted the tree trunk: "Eat this tree?"

"Don't eat this tree. The flowering ones are not suitable for eating, but only suitable for extracting sugar juice. The most suitable ones are those that will bloom and have no trees, the most suitable."

Sun Zhixin looked left and right, thinking that five people really couldn't kill a sugar palm tree in one go - there was no way, the times and the environment were different, and the life principle of saving food and not wasting food gradually melted into Sun Zhixin's life. Started to take root in the bone marrow.Sun Zhixin chose a relatively small sugar palm tree that was about to bloom or not, and said: "Tarim, put it down. I will eat this one tonight. I will find something that can be used as a pot for cooking. return."

Sun Zhixin did not take his field tableware for the new outfit before.And Zigli and his party are used to hunting prey in the wild to satisfy their hunger. That thing can be eaten roasted. If it is not possible, it is not impossible for prehistoric humans to eat raw, so the pot will definitely not be taken out.Besides, the whole camp uses clay pots, which are very precious and weak and easy to break, so it is completely unrealistic to bring them out.

The five people divided the work, Zigli went to look for clean water, Tarim went to cut sugar palm trees, Sun Zhixin went to find the 'pot', Goben thoroughly checked the surroundings for danger, and Alpha started a fire where he was weak due to the use of his abilities.

Tarim went over with his sword in hand, and started chopping down trees without saying a word.He is honest-minded, and has the habit of prehistoric humans who would instinctively save every bit of food in the bathroom. Sun Zhixin told him to cut down trees. Cut off more parts.

Alpha sat down weakly on the spot to make a fire, and the others separated.

Sun Zhixin wandered around in the sugar palm forest, except for a few edible liverworts, but he couldn't find any props that could be used as pots.He originally thought that he could find a coconut tree and cut a coconut shell to use as a pot, but this idea has now come to nothing.

After turning around for a long time, when he came back empty-handed, Tarim had already brought down the tree, and he was indeed a great man... With a modern steel sword in his hand, the lethality has been upgraded to A-level... He is now idly wiping the tree. Jian, still with that expression of touching a lover.Alpha is still making fire there, using the most primitive method of drilling wood to make fire.The fire has not yet risen, and there is no sign of smoke. It seems that the efficiency of starting the fire is ridiculously low.

Making fire was not easy for prehistoric humans. They would drill wood to make fire, but making fire in this way was time-consuming and labor-intensive anyway and the success rate was not high.Sun Zhixin originally wanted to take out the lighter and use it, but then he thought about it. Once the lighter oil is used up, it is impossible to refill it. It is a non-renewable consumable, and it should be reserved for special situations to save lives.Moreover, if prehistoric humans wanted to live a better life, they had to learn more ways to make fire. There was only one advanced lighter, which could not be popularized, nor could it be used forever and without restrictions.

At the moment, I asked Tarim, a first-class warrior, to smash a big rock back, and I squatted down to teach Alpha how to make fire in the wild.By this time Coben had come back and was standing there watching with great interest.

The more he watched, the more surprised he became, because in addition to the original method of drilling wood to make fire, Sun Zhixin knew as many as six methods of drilling wood to make fire!In fact, there are seven kinds, and the seventh is the method of making fire with flint. There is no flint in the hand and it cannot be exposed.

In addition to the most stupid method used by Alpha, Sun Zhixin demonstrated the classic two-person method of drilling wood, the simple method of making fire with a plane, the Iroquois method of making fire, the method of bowstring drilling and the very classic method of preserving fire in the cave age .Either way, it's much better than Alpha's original method.

After a while, Zigley also came back, refilled the bamboo pot with water, and was still holding a very thick snake in his hand, and the dart was stuck in its forehead.Zigley didn't even dial the blowing arrow, and was standing aside with great interest to see Professor Sun Zhixin's method of making fire by drilling wood, and then he couldn't hold back himself and pulled his elder brother to form a group to study.

Due to limited conditions, Sun Zhixin focused on explaining the efficient method of drilling fire for one person, the bowstring drilling method.Compared with the original classical fire-drilling method, it keeps the original drill bit unchanged, but adds a bow string to drive the drill bit to rotate at high speed, which greatly improves the efficiency and success rate of fire-making.

The props used are very simple. A board used for drilling boards has a gap on the edge that can clamp the drill bit, and a combustible material is placed under the gap to catch the high-heat sawdust or sparks that fall during the rotation.Take two more dead branches, one of which is polished or sharpened to make a drill bit, and the other to be used as a fire drill bow.

Tie a rope at both ends of the dead branch used as a fire drill bow, and tighten it so that the dead branch is bow-shaped, and then wrap the drill bit around the string once.When the fire drill bow is pulled back and forth, the bow string drives the drill bit to rotate rapidly. The high-speed friction generates a lot of heat, and after a while, sparks fall and ignite the combustibles below.Prehistoric people were more proficient than Sun Zhixin in the next work. They carefully protected the burning sparks, put them on with dead leaves, and then gently blown them to make the flames grow stronger.Due to the improved method, the whole process can be completed in less than 10 minutes.

The strong man in Tarim came back with a few big stones, one of which was concave and could be used as a pot after processing.This man was really not smart enough, he wasn't sure if the stone talismans he had found met Sun Zhixin's requirements, so he just carried a few pieces back in one go, thinking that there would always be one that would come in handy.

Seeing that the four people built a fire there at an extremely fast speed, not one pile but several piles—the result of learning and experimenting after Zigley and Coben became interested, he also seemed very surprised.According to the previous situation, it was normal to spend an hour or two on the sparks. He was already ready to eat food at night, but he did not expect that the flames would be raging so soon.

Qi Geli kept Professor Sun Zhixin's method of making fire in his heart, and sat next to Sun Zhixin to peel the snake's skin.Sun Zhixin is instructing Tarim to process two round stones for making stone mills.The whole work of making stone mills does not require too much meticulous work, which is perfect for such a powerful barbarian like Tarim.

Zigli leaned over and asked sternly, "Sun Zhixin, is that tree really edible?" He didn't believe it, on the contrary he was convinced.But this piece of forest is really not small. If it is edible as Sun Zhixin said, then it means too much, which means that the food problem that is difficult for the two tribes for the whole winter can be solved, no matter the hunter tribe or the hunter tribe. It is the Sea Breeze Tribe who have this edible forest, and they will surely be able to survive the cruel winter.

Sun Zhixin also understands this point, and now he is no longer a bad showman, but also solemnly said like Qi Geli: "Please believe me, this kind of tree is indeed edible. It is not only edible, but also has many uses. See Is this forest? With this kind of production, the entire Hunter tribe and the Sea Breeze tribe can eat enough! Although I can’t guarantee that everyone will not starve, but with this forest, no one will starve to death! This winter, there will never be a child or an old man, a sick man, a disabled person who will die of starvation. No one will be left to die! I said it, and it will be done! Whether it is the Hunter tribe or the Seabreeze tribe, it is the same! "

Everyone had an excited look on their faces. Most of the people present were disabled and unable to participate in hunting to provide food. In the past, they had no choice but to actively choose to stay in order to preserve the continued existence of the entire tribe.If it is true that this forest can be used for food, as far as this amount is concerned, then there is really no need to sacrifice oneself in exchange for the survival of the tribe.

Everyone cherishes their own life, and no one wants to die in pain and despair in the cold and hunger.Sun Zhixin's words are undoubtedly a bright light that illuminates the darkness ahead!

Sun Zhixin added: "However, there are more than 300 people in the two tribes, and they consume a lot of food. I will try to find more things so that the two tribes can survive this winter better."
