Beginning Backpack [Farming]

The clay that had been aired overnight was ready for firing. Shen Huaijin carefully put them into the kiln, covered the side door and sealed it with mud.

Looking at the dishes, Li Li at the side finally came to his senses and said in surprise, "So you know how to make pottery."

Surprised, he didn't doubt whether Shen Huaijin could do it.

Shen Huaijin lowered her head to work, and said modestly: "Just try, it may not be able to burn out."

What happened yesterday finally made him take Li Bao's feelings to heart, and he was also a little embarrassed to face the other party at this time.

Although Li was on the side, he was embarrassed to bother others, so he just silently took the dry wood he had prepared in advance, started a fire from the lower layer of the firebox, and ignited the firewood placed on the grate.

The flame soon reached the chimney at the end of the kiln, and about half an hour later, the flame reached the top of the chimney. Through the chimney, Shen Huaijin could see that the clay inside had been burnt orange-red.

He has been paying attention to the color and size of the fire, adding more firewood as soon as the fire has receded.

Seeing that he has been working in silence, neither asking himself to help, nor driving himself away, his heart was full of breath, and he couldn't hold back after holding it for a long time, "Jin, why did you ignore me since last night? What’s wrong with you?"

What can Shen Huaijin say, is it possible that last night I found out that you didn't come on a whim or just because of sex, but you really wanted to fuck me, which made me a little at a loss.

Too rude.

He cleared his throat, and asked with embarrassment: "Li, what do you think of the sub-beast Yang?"

Li frowned, not understanding why Shen Huaijin suddenly mentioned Yang, but he still answered seriously: "He's pretty serious about his work, but he's always bluffing, which is a bit annoying."

Shen Huaijin clicked his tongue, and said again: "I'm not asking you this, I mean... how do you think Yang will be your partner? I think Yin and Yan are a pair among the captains of the gathering team and the hunting team. An and Rin are a couple. Then you and Yang..."

Li finally understood Shen Huaijin's abnormality, he sneered and interrupted the latter's nonsense.

"But I want you to be my partner."

Shen Huaijin: The ball was played too straight.

Shen Huaijin is a heterosexual, no accident is destined to become a celibate in the beastman world, he looks straight into the other's eyes.

"I won't like any orc or sub-beast."

He smiled sharply and said, "I want you to do what you like about sub-beasts. It is the nature of orcs to please sub-beasts, so you don't have to bear the burden. No matter whether we will form a partner in the end, you don't have to refuse my help."

"Anyway, you can't refuse what I really want to do."

Li stared at Shen Huaijin with fiery eyes, casually wrapped his arms around his shoulders, and patted him lightly twice.

His movements were very light and gentle, completely unlike his usual style. When he released Shen Huaijin, his rough and warm fingertips faintly brushed against the back of Shen Huaijin's neck.

Shen Huaijin only felt numb all over, and he blinked, feeling a little bad.

Birds flew over the valley, and the sound of birdsong broke the strange atmosphere between the two.

Shen Huaijin regained her composure, and returned her mind to the pottery kiln that was being fired.

He kept watching the fire, and after about three or four hours, when he saw that the firing was almost done, he put out the fire and waited for the pottery in the kiln to cool down naturally.

After waiting for another two hours, Shen Huaijin knocked on the side door and carefully took out the fired pottery inside.

Although it is the first time to burn pottery, Shen Huaijin strictly follows the tutorial on the USB flash drive, so the success rate is not too low.

Among the fourteen pieces of pottery he burned, there are three plates, three cups, two bowls, and a pot that are well preserved. The rest are only some broken pottery fragments. The clinker used when.

However, in comparison, the red clay on the river bank is indeed more resistant to burning and less fragile than the yellow clay on the river bank.Shen Huaijin decided that in the future, it would be more convenient to use yellow clay from the river bank for burning small pieces, and red clay from the river bank for burning large pieces. Although it is a bit troublesome, at least the success rate is high.

The successful firing is not over yet, Shen Huaijin still needs to put the pottery in water for one night to test their waterproof performance.

The next thing is left to time.

It was rare that today ended early, and Shen Huaijin returned to the square before dinner.

An saw that he had been busy on the other side for several days, burning fires and digging mud, and didn't eat well. She was worried that he was anxious because of the bet with Yang, so she comforted him when she saw him coming: "Jin, You can think about the method slowly, you don’t have to work so hard. No matter what the result is, in our hearts, what you bring to the tribe is enough to prove that you are capable of being a witch.”

Shen Huaijin replied: "It doesn't matter, I have already thought of a way to make the tribe rich, and I will show it to everyone soon."

An Wenyan was very happy for him, and said: "That's good. Come and sit down, you have worked hard these two days, leave the barbecue to us, you can eat it later. We will go to the stream to wash in the evening Take a bath and relax."

Shen Huaijin nodded. He had been digging mud and burning fire under the sun for the past two days, and he could only wipe it carelessly at night. He really needed to clean it up.

Speaking of bathing, he now only has one coat, one pair of trousers, two T-shirts and three pairs of underwear left. You have to wear rough animal skin clothes.Besides, his pair of shoes, which he wears every day, are not bad but they should be smelly, and he has to find time to weave straw sandals or something to replace them.

In this way, it seems that he will have to work hard for a long time if he wants to live a barely passable comfortable life.

The next day, Shen Huaijin checked the waterproof condition of the first batch of pottery, and they were all okay, at least enough for normal use.

Since the tribe has not shared food yet, it is useless for Shen Huaijin to hold these dishes by herself.He simply sent the pottery bowl to the big witch, let Xiu Ping use it when processing herbs, and gave Li a cup as a reward for his work, and kept the big pottery pot for him to fetch water in the future, and gave the rest to the tribe. It is used for everyone to eat at ordinary times.

As soon as these batches of pottery were brought out, the whole tribe erupted, and even An, who had always believed in his ability, was dumbfounded.

Only then did everyone know why Shen Huaijin proposed to make a bet with Yang so quickly. It turned out that he knew how to make pottery!

You must know that in the Eastern Continent, the technology of making pottery is only mastered by a few tribes in the northern Shihuoyuan.Usually in the market, most of the tribes are willing to exchange a large amount of animal skins, animal bones and even salt for pottery.Pottery and salt are the most exchanged items in the market.

Shen Huaijin can make pottery, and the Dahe Tribe can exchange a lot of salt and other useful things in this hot season. Naturally, they can be called rich and powerful.

No wonder the great witch and the leader valued Shen Huaijin so much, it turned out that he really had so many ideas!

Faced with everyone's astonishment, Shen Huaijin smiled and said modestly: "It still takes a little skill and time to make pottery, but if you can exchange for other useful things for the tribe, it will be worth the pain and tiredness."

He turned to Yang and said: "Yang, I won the bet this time."

Yang gritted his teeth bitterly, thinking bitterly in his heart that all the good deeds would be done by Jin, hemp grass vines can be weaved casually to form a basket, and food and herbs can be found wherever he looks, and now he burns some mud and burns it. pottery.

The orcs and sub-beasts of the tribe all looked at him, he was not easy to get angry, snorted coldly, and said: "If you win, you win, if you think you have the ability to be a witch, then you can be a witch, I have no objection. "

Shen Huaijin raised her eyebrows, she didn't care about his stubborn mouth at all, after all, the effect of Liwei was achieved, and the rest of the tribe had recognized him, so it didn't matter if Duoyang or Shaoyang was one.

In the next few days, Shen Huaijin, who officially became a shaman, developed the habit of going to the repair place to check in every day, but this time it was no longer learning the orc language, but learning the knowledge needed by the tribe's big shaman.

But in the final analysis, before Xiu became a great witch, he was just a witch assistant who had not grown up for a long time. He couldn't make holy water, and he didn't have the ability to communicate with animal gods.

Xiu then focused on explaining the geographical distribution of the Eastern Continent and the history of the Great River Tribe.

The Eastern Continent is roughly divided into five regions, namely the Wild Beast Jungle in the middle, the Wild Wind Plain in the east, the Tianhe Plain in the south, the Linshan Plain in the west, and the Stone Fire Plain in the north.

The Dahe Tribe originally settled on the banks of a big river in the Wild Wind Plain, with abundant prey and a salt lake nearby. The Great River Tribe was rich and powerful, and it was the largest tribe in the Wild Wind Plain.

However, a beast horde would break out in the Eastern Continent every hundred years. At that time, the most ferocious and violent beasts in the center of the wild beast forest would come out and randomly attack one or two wild beasts.

The last time the beast tide broke out ahead of time, and the tribe ignored the warning before the catastrophe came, until the beast herd came out in full force, the unprepared Dahe Tribe was attacked to pieces, and the remaining members took risks and went against the direction of the beast tide , passed through the wild beast jungle, and migrated to the west of Linshan Plain to settle down.

It's just that the journey was long and difficult, and the survivors in the beast tide also died on the way. When they reached Linshanyuan, only the most powerful leader, Xiu, who was a witch at the time, a few adult orcs and some who were killed by their fathers were left. The underage cubs who paid for their lives with death.

Since then, Xiu has become a great witch and planted a sacred beast tree that he dug hastily when he was fleeing. It is a pity that Xiu's sacrifice talent is not high, and he was only trained as a witch assistant since he was a child. Only witches can learn how to prepare holy water. Therefore, although the thin holy beast tree was planted alive, it showed signs of decay. It did not bear fruit in twenty days, and the fruit after that was mediocre.

Dahe, which was already at the end of the road, encountered a population crisis.After recovering for nearly 100 years, the tribe now has a population in the early [-]s.

And because the quality of the holy beast fruit is not high, the Dahe Tribe has not successfully bred a sub-beast with a talent for sacrifice in the past 100 years. Therefore, there are no wizards around the big witch, only two wizard assistants as assistants.

Xiu is not so much explaining, he is actually pouring out the grief and self-blame of these years. The orcs and sub-beasts who shared this history with him have many injuries, and most of them have died one after another. With the memory of tears, in the endless pain, he silently waited for a possibility to lead the Great River Tribe on his behalf.

Shen Huaijin finally understood why the big witch was so desperate.

He has lived in the dark for too long and is too tired, so that when he sees a little light, he can chase it desperately.
