I love farming since prehistoric times
Chapter 25
When they came to the middle of the mountain, there were still dozens of Fengshen pterosaurs standing guard on both sides of the stone road like that day.
After Yulai explained his intentions, a Fengshen pterosaur went to report, and soon an orc in black robe came to take them up the mountain in person.
Mingying originally thought that he had to wait on the mountainside like last time, but the black-robed orc beckoned him to go together.
This made him so happy, he had long wanted to see how luxurious Yizhi's place was.
I came to the previous big cave again, but only a few days later, there were some more wooden furniture here, and what shocked me most was that the furniture was quite delicate.
Although there is no carving or lacquer, it is polished very smoothly. Compared with the orc tribe who only use flat stones as furniture, these are too advanced.
Yizhi was sitting in front of a set of wooden tables and chairs, still wearing a white robe.
It's just that he didn't wear a crown today, and his long ink-like satin hair was combed back into a big back. When he was an adult, he felt that this hairstyle was exactly the same as that of Orlando, the elf prince in "The Lord of the Rings".
Even with a silver mask on, the grown-up still finds the beauty of alienation.
Cheng Sui would like to ask Yi Zhi: Can you already make something as advanced as "Pomade", or how did your hair get so beautiful and docile?
Of course he didn't dare to ask, he was also afraid of the cruelty and bloodthirsty of heterodoxy, so it's better to speak less in front of overly powerful people.
Before Yu could speak, Yizhi said, "I agree to your request."
Cheng Sui didn't expect it to go so smoothly, but he thought about it, this mountain has a lot of quartz, and this kind of natural resource is not a rare thing, so there is nothing to disagree with.
Yu put the still steaming steamed and fried dumplings in front of Yi Zhi, and said, "My lord, this is made by Sui, try it."
Yi Zhi slightly nodded and said, "Okay."
Under the signal of the black-robed orc, they put down their food and left the cave.
Both Cheng Sui and Yu could understand that Yizhi let them go so quickly. After all, Yizhi was imprisoned in a dungeon since he was a child and rarely interacted with people, so naturally he didn't like to talk to people much.
After walking out of the cave, Mingying turned into a beast shape, and carried Sui and Yu away from here.
Mingying said excitedly along the way: "Wow, the cave where Yizhuan lives is too beautiful. I have never seen those things before. Today is an eye-opener..."
That night Mingying went back to the Giant Eagle Tribe, and the next day Yunying and Mingying brought the other three giant eagle orcs to the dam of Sui's house.
The Giant Eagle Tribe heard that the Big Tiger Tribe wanted to make pottery. The patriarch Hongying, who is the mother of the Yunying siblings, came to find Rao in person, and said that she would send as many giant eagles as she needed. Eagle tribe pottery.
The two tribes were originally an excellent alliance, and Rao readily agreed.
With the help of the giant eagle tribe, moving the quartz is much easier. Cheng Sui took everyone with stone hammers, bone knives, animal skin bags and other tools, and took the giant eagle to Pantian Snow Mountain.
When you are an adult, you will first be taught to identify quartz, and then everyone will work hard to collect it.
Some quartz is embedded in huge stones and needs tools such as stone hammers and bone knives to mine them out.
The mining tools were far inferior to modern iron tools, but the orcs were particularly strong, and the mining went smoothly.
The big tiger tribe transferred three particularly strong orcs from the hunting team, and the three orcs from the giant eagle tribe were also very strong. Yunying and Sheng were also mining, and Mingying flew around with Sui, familiar with everything around here.
There are many high mountains around Pantian Snow Mountain, which do not belong to any tribe, nor do they belong to the Wangting branch. I want to see what can be collected and utilized on these high mountains.
After flying around, he found that these high mountains are very barren, a bit like a mine, with few animals and plants.
The orcs don't know how to use minerals yet, so they naturally think that these mountains are useless, so no tribe divides them into their territory.
The Wang Ting branch only occupies Pantian Snow Mountain, because the Wang Ting branch does not need territory, they can go wherever they want, and they are supported by three major tribes, so they don't need to work at all.
Now the Wang Ting branch of Yizhi has subdued the "Pterosaur Clan", "Giant Python Clan", and "Saber-toothed Tiger Clan", and these three tribes have powerful influence in the royal court and are also very rich.
Mingying asked curiously: "What's the use of these bare mountains? Even the weeds don't grow much, Sui, what are you looking for?"
Cheng Sui explained: "If you don't look for anything, just look around. These mountains may be of great use in the future. This is called a mine. It can be used to make iron, smelt copper, and refine gold and silver..."
Mingying didn't understand at all, so he asked: "What iron and copper are you talking about, can you eat it? Is it delicious?"
Cheng Sui: ...you really deserve to be a foodie, you just know how to eat.
He said: "It can't be eaten, but it is very useful, but now we don't have the ability to mine ore, and we don't have the energy to smelt it. These are too complicated and require a lot of labor."
Sui Sui knows that metal smelting can only be considered after planting and animal husbandry are popularized in the tribe at least. The basic living needs of the orcs cannot be met, and it is simply not practical to do other things.
Mingying half-understood and said: "Anyway, whatever you do, I will trust you and support you!"
Cheng Sui: ...You really are my number one brainless fan.
Flying all the mines around here, Cheng Sui basically knew it in his heart. On the way back, he was attracted by a piece of golden weeds.
He immediately said: "Go over there and have a look, and land in that yellow grass."
After Mingying landed, Cheng Sui came down to check immediately, he jumped up excitedly: "Mingying, this is soybeans, great, we can make tofu and soy sauce!"
He never expected that when he came out to look at the mine, he could actually see soybeans on this particularly remote hillside.
There are almost no orcs here, no wonder no one has found such a delicious food!
The conditions for the survival of soybeans are relatively harsh. There must be little rain and the temperature must be maintained at around ten degrees. However, most places here have a lot of rain, and the temperature difference between day and night is large, which leads to the absence of soybeans in most places.
This hillside is hidden in a large mine. Although there is a lot of rain, the hillside is steep and the natural drainage system is good. The temperature on the hillside is maintained at more than ten degrees, so soybeans can grow naturally.
Mingying asked excitedly: "What are tofu and soy sauce? They sound delicious!"
Cheng Sui said excitedly: "You will know when I make it, and we will collect these soybeans tomorrow."
When the two returned to Pantian Snow Mountain, it was almost evening, and the clansmen filled up the animal skin bags they had brought, and they were waiting for them to fly back together.
At this time, a strong man in a black robe walked towards them. Cheng Sui recognized him at a glance. He was Yi Zhi's "confidant minister", named Yi Hai, a Fengshen pterosaur orc.
The last time all the priests and tribal chiefs met with Yizhi was the meeting "hosted" by Yihai, and he was also the one who led them to meet Yizhi yesterday.
Yi Hai walked to Cheng Sui's side, and handed him clean stone bowls and clay pots with a slight fragrance.
This is the tableware left by Yi Zhi when they delivered dumplings yesterday, Cheng Sui didn't expect Yi Zhi to be so careful that he remembered to return it.
Yi Hai nodded slightly and said: "Sui, the leader asked me to take the message. The dumplings you made are delicious. If you need any help in the future, you can come to him at any time."
Cheng Sui didn't realize it, he thought that Yizhi was cruel and bloodthirsty, and he would not be moved by anything, let alone a mere food guide, but Yizhi praised his food!
He has always regarded his obsession as a "shameful young tyrant", he thought about it, the tyrant should just be in a good mood today.
Tyrants, moodiness is standard.
But this does not prevent him from fantasizing: After getting acquainted with Yizhi, let me see if Yizhi can be turned into a Tyrannosaurus Rex. I am so curious about everything about Tyrannosaurus Rex!
There are very few people whose beast form is a Tyrannosaurus rex. When Yizhi becomes a Tyrannosaurus rex and fights, they are all far away from here. As a result, almost no one has ever seen a Tyrannosaurus rex. They have only heard of it. never seen it.
What's more, even if someone knew where the aliens turned into Tyrannosaurus Rex were fighting, no one dared to watch, after all, everyone was afraid of death.
He wanted to see the Tyrannosaurus rex from a distance when he was an adult, and he felt that he was going to die.
He thought to himself, what if the tyrannosaurus rex turned into a yawn accidentally swallows himself?
Adult: Hurry up, stop thinking about it, I'm so cowardly!
When Cheng Sui came to his senses, Yi Hai turned around and left. He shouted, "I see, thank you, sir!"
Yihai just nodded slightly, and then turned into Fengshen pterosaur, spreading its huge wings and flying away.
Mingying said excitedly: "The dumplings made by Sui are really delicious, not to mention the obsession, even the beast gods can't help but praise them after eating them!"
Adult: ...that's too exaggerated.
Yunying glared at his younger brother, and reprimanded: "You can mention the Beast God casually, don't talk nonsense, it will cause trouble for Sui."
Mingying immediately covered his mouth and nodded, expressing that he would never dare again.
They flew back to the Tiger Tribe together, and Yunying was still leading the way, and the powerful airflow she raised could make the giant eagle behind fly easier and faster.
When they flew over the territory of the giant wolf tribe, a group of particularly strong orcs stood on the ground and waved to them.
Cheng Sui recognized at a glance that the leader was Lang Ji, the second-in-command of the Giant Wolf Tribe. Last time he tried to exchange seeds with Lang Ji but failed, and Lang Ji was beaten by Lang Xiao.
Yunying asked: "Sui, will you go down and meet them? They must have nothing good to say, it's best not to go, I'm too lazy to talk to them."
As a grown-up, he realized that he hadn't changed to sorghum, so he said, "It's okay to go and see, I want to see what other tricks they have."
They landed beside the group of orcs, and Cheng Sui walked up to the fierce wolf and asked, "What's the matter?"
The wolf fiercely cursed directly: "You are a big fool, Rao and Jiangchu just raised a scourge... Don't be in contact with the aliens anymore, you will kill us all, and Enling can wipe out all the tribes around here !"
Cheng Sui was not angry at all. He knew that he could make pottery, which would definitely arouse the jealousy of the giant wolf tribe, and they would try their best to prevent him from making pottery.
This is one of the ways to prevent him from going to the different persistence to ask for quartz.
Now all the tribes are trying to curry favor with Yizhi, wanting to exchange for good things, and he is not the only one who went to find Yizhi, and the "crime" that the wolf so fiercely pinned on him was not established at all.
The wolf said viciously: "I don't want to fight today, I want to see how long the priest, Ren Yu, can protect you. Sooner or later, you will be burned to death as a monster!"
Cheng Sui thought to himself: Hehe, you dare not fight. The relationship between the two tribes is very tense now. Once a tribal war is provoked, how many lives do you have to atone for your sins?
Afterwards, the fierce wolf revealed his real purpose: "If you go to find Yizhi for any stone, we will all be implicated by you. If you make pottery, you must teach us, otherwise we will unite with other tribes to sacrifice you to the beast god .”
Cheng Sui thought: Hehe, you are here waiting for me. If you want to prostitute and make pottery, you will be charged with various crimes. It is a pity that the charges you fabricated are not true at all.
All the tribes knew that even though Yizhi and Enling were fighting for the throne, ordinary orc tribes did not pose any threat to them and could not be implicated.
Sui Sui knows that now the Giant Wolf tribe is "jumping over the wall" because they don't have any more valuable things to exchange for pottery.
Even if the Giant Wolf Tribe agreed to exchange sorghum seeds for pottery making, he would definitely not agree.
First of all, the methods of sorghum planting and pottery making are not at the same level. Secondly, he had taught Lang Xiao the method of making vermicelli and flour before, but Lang Xiao denied that he had not given sorghum.
The ten-day deadline is coming soon, and Rao will not let the giant wolf tribe continue to deny it.
Cheng Sui sneered and said, "As you please, I'll wait."
The wolf cursed viciously: "Sui, you will die badly. You are a monster, and you will bring disaster to all our tribes. The beast god will issue an oracle, and you will definitely be burned to death and stoned to death... ..."
Cheng Sui didn't care at all, he sat on Mingying's back and said: "Let's go, let him go crazy with envy and jealousy, no matter how crazy he is, he can't do anything to me."
Yun Ying soared into the sky, and all the giant eagles flew away with her. Flying far away, they could still hear the people of the giant wolf tribe cursing loudly.
As an adult, he knew that it was normal for the Tiger Tribe and the Giant Eagle Tribe to praise him for his pottery making skills, and how much other hostile tribes belittled and slandered him.
Yun Ying couldn't help comforting: "Sui, don't care about them like them, you just pretend you didn't hear, their mouths are so cheap, they will definitely be punished by the beast god, let them rot their mouths and tongues..."
Cheng Sui said very calmly: "Yunying, I'm not angry at all. If they don't make trouble, I don't think it's normal. I think they must be holding back some big moves. That's good."
Yunying froze for a moment, she looked at Sui, the setting sun shone on Sui's fair and thin body, like the beast god that the priest said was shrouded in golden light.
At this moment, she felt that Sui was the tallest and strongest beastman!
After breakfast the next day, the Yunying sister and brother landed in the dam of the Sui family with two Giant Eagles. Today was to harvest soybeans, and the quartz collected yesterday was enough.
Because it was discovered a bit late, the soybeans were all ripe, and the pods had been sun-dried, so they had to be threshed on site. The grown-ups brought the large animal skins and flails from the last rapeseed harvest.
After arriving at the destination, the adults directly spread out the animal skins, and the giant eagle orcs put all the harvested soybean stalks on the animal skins.
Sheng was in charge of beating the beans with a flail, Mingying carried out the stalks, and Cheng Sui and Yunying put the shattered soybeans in bags.
Everyone worked together, and it only took one day to collect all the soybeans on this hillside, which were full of three big animal skin bags.
Cheng Sui said that when he makes tofu and soy sauce, he will teach Yunying how to make it, and will distribute some to the Giant Eagle tribe, and teach them how to grow soybeans.
Yunying said that they don't need anything in return for helping to carry. Originally, they promised that as long as they can learn how to make pottery, they will be able to carry as many things as they need when they grow up.
Cheng Sui didn't say anything, but he knew in his heart that he would never treat the allied tribe badly.
After breakfast the next day, he brought Yunying sister and brother and the three clansmen assigned to him by Rao to the kiln, ready to make pottery.
Yu and her apprentices are already waiting here. They have recorded the process of making clay kilns before, and today they will record the process of making pottery.
All the children and old people in the tribe, who didn’t have to go out to hunt and hunt, all came to watch. From time to time, they prostrated themselves on the ground and kowtowed to the beast god, praying that the beast god would bless the success of making pottery.
Of course Cheng Sui was very nervous, even breathing a bit short of breath, he was afraid of disappointing his clansmen.
Yu comforted: "Sui, it doesn't matter if you can't make it. Making pottery is very difficult, and the King of Alien Beasts can only be made by very powerful senior craftsmen. If you have the courage to try, it is already very good."
Cheng Sui said firmly: "Master Priest, I will do my best."
He recalled the pottery process he learned systematically in modern times, and he also made many high-quality pottery himself.
It's just that there are various machine-assisted operations in modern times, but here it can only be done by hand.
Before that, he had prepared kaolin, and he had also done the first step of pottery making, "mud washing". The mud that had been settled for two days had a particularly high viscosity, and it could be shaped by just kneading it after mixing it evenly.
He explained in detail while doing it: "You are like me, stack the mud into a column that is half the height of your arm, put it aside and use it to pull the embryo later..."
The orcs have great strength and quick hands and feet, and they piled up all the mud in a short while.
The purpose of stacking mud is to make pottery more convenient in the future. A lot of mud is stacked at one time, and it can be used directly when making pottery.
Before I was an adult, I made three foot-operated embryo-pulling turntables. I used wood as the base, and polished smooth stone discs were used to pull the embryos. I can quickly turn the discs by stepping on them.
The process of embryo drawing is particularly critical, and it requires a lot of practice to do it well, otherwise it will not be well formed, or it will be easily broken, and various problems will appear.
Adults use one embryo pulling turntable, and Yunying and Yu each use one.
While pulling the embryo, he explained: "To make pottery as big as you want, take as much clay, put it on the turntable, step on it to make the turntable turn quickly, and knead the clay with your hands..."
Yunying and Yu tried many times, but they failed to make a shape. Cheng Sui has rich experience in drawing blanks, and quickly made a very beautiful wide-mouthed pottery bowl blank.
The onlookers said excitedly while watching:
"It's amazing. Put a pile of mud on the turntable, turn it around and knead it, and it looks like a bowl. I can't believe my eyes!"
"When offering sacrifices to the beast gods, the pottery bowls used are exactly the same as the one Sui is making now. Can this bowl be used after drying? Sui is too powerful, and our tribe will have no shortage of pottery in the future."
"It looks so simple, I think I can do it."
"Hehe, your eyes know it, but your hands will never learn it. It looks simple, but Yunying is so smart and Mr. Priest is so powerful, so he didn't make it."
……
The clansmen were so excited, they danced and sang and cheered after watching for a while, and prostrated themselves on the ground to thank the Beast God, Sui and Yu.
Cheng Sui taught Yunying and Yu in detail how to take shape.
Both Yunying and Yu are very good at learning. They can make relatively simple prototypes of pottery bowls in a short time, and they are getting better and better.
The clansmen also listened carefully and studied carefully. Sui said to them: "When the turntable is not in use, you can also practice embryo pulling. You can learn it by doing more practice. I will let everyone use pottery."
Everyone was so excited that tears welled up in their eyes. They never imagined that they could make and use pottery by themselves in the future, which they never dared to dream of!
Their voices trembled:
"As long as I can use the clay bowl and pot for a day, I can die immediately."
"Pottery is a precious item that we can only see when offering sacrifices to beast gods. I didn't expect my old lady to enjoy such a blessing before she died!"
"Go to the tribes around the Alien Beast King's Court to exchange pottery. They always give us pottery with gaps, but we have to exchange it with the best meat and fur. I'm so angry that I vomit blood, and there's nothing I can do about it."
"I remember that one year the replacements for us were all broken, and they were all cracked when we got them back. In the second year, we went to them to reason and were threatened not to exchange anything with us again. We could only swallow our anger."
"It's great that I don't have to suffer from such uselessness anymore!"
……
Listening to the words of the clansmen as an adult, I feel extremely happy.
After countless times of practice, both Yu and Yunying made qualified pottery bowl blanks.
Yu said to his apprentices, "Ying, come here first and learn how to do it."
Ying is Yu's most proud student, no matter what he does, he has a very high level of comprehension.
Ying is also an orc from the Tiger Tribe. He lost his parents when he was very young. Because he is very smart, he has been studying with Yu since he was eight years old.
Therefore, Ying is not only Yu's apprentice, but also Yu's "granddaughter". Ying is only 16 years old, the same age as Sheng, but she is already a well-known "little priest".
Although the apprentices of priests are all respected, not many can be called "little priests". This honorary title means that Ying has already become a leader on his own.
I taught Ying once when I was an adult, and Ying was able to make particularly good pottery bowl blanks, which proves that Ying learned it just now when I watched it, and her hands-on ability is also very strong.
So Cheng Sui immediately taught Ying to make more complicated clay pots and pots. Ying learned it several times and practiced it more than ten times, and he was able to make it as well as Sui.
Cheng Sui exclaimed: "Ying, you are too amazing!"
Ying said modestly, "You taught me well."
Some time ago, Ying went to the King of Alien Beasts to study, and she just came back a few days ago. Of course, she was very happy to see that Sui had changed so much.
Originally, Yu was supposed to go together, but two people had to pay two "tuition fees" to study, so Yu gave up the opportunity to study to Ying.
While making pottery, Ying whispered in Sui's ear, "I left you a lot of hot pots, and I hung them outside your shed at night. Remember to pick them up tomorrow morning."
Spicy mouth is wild ginger, and the priest would lead his apprentices to dig herbs every day, and spicy mouth was one of the herbs, but Yu didn't allow Yingbang Sui to do these small things, so she could only do it secretly.
Cheng Sui teased in a low voice: "Sister, you must not be discovered, or you will be punished by grandma again."
Yingchen said angrily: "Stinky boy, don't worry about it."
At this time, Ying's whole face was radiant. She always treated Sui as her own younger brother, and she liked to hear Sui call her sister the most.
As an adult, she also knows that Ying lost her family when she was very young, and she longs for family affection. Ying regards Yu as her own grandmother and Yu's family as her family.
Ever since she was a child, Ying would bring all kinds of sweet wild fruits to Sui Hesheng every time she went out to pick herbs, but now they are replaced by Sui's favorite wild vegetables.
Sui also treats Ying as his own sister, and will not be polite to Ying in these small matters.
Cheng Sui proudly said: "Sister, I will make a lot of delicious food now, and I can't eat it without you, and I will cook it for you slowly in the future."
Ying felt as sweet as honey in his heart, but he didn't show it, teasing, "I'm not as greedy as you."
Throughout the day, they are constantly pulling the blanks, and the finished pottery blanks need to be dried in the shade for several days before being glazed.
Three to five days later, after checking that the pottery was dry in the shade, I was busy adjusting the "glaze", which is the key to making top-grade high-temperature resistant pottery.
He asked the three clansmen to mix quartz, borax, clay, feldspar, etc. and grind them into powder.
This is a lot of hard work, but the people transferred from the hunting team are very strong, so this job is not difficult for them.
When I was an adult, I burned plant ash, which is the soul of glaze making. Even in the modern pottery world, there has always been a famous saying "no ash, no glaze".
Mix the powder made of quartz and other ash with plant ash, add an appropriate amount of water and stir well until it becomes an extremely silky glaze slurry, which is made into ceramic glaze.
When I was an adult, I went to fire the kiln again. The kiln was fired in advance. After the temperature was very high, pottery could be fired directly.
Then the first batch of pottery was put into the kiln for firing, which took more than [-] hours.
At night, Cheng Sui and his three clansmen slept directly on a large flat stone not far from the kiln, so that it was convenient to take care of the kiln.
Ying and Yunying also slept here, of course for the whole process of learning, not missing any link.
There are many insects and ants sleeping outside, and adults burn a lot of wormwood and wood chips beside the stone where they sleep, which can not only repel insects and ants, but also help them sleep.
They took turns looking after the kiln, and according to the requirements of the year, they ensured that the fire in the kiln was always particularly strong.
It was the first time he slept outside as an adult, smelling the incomparably fresh air of nature, looking at the cloudless sky full of stars, and occasionally pterosaurs flying by, he felt as if he was sleeping in a magnificent prehistoric picture.
He slept well that night, and it was his turn to look at the kiln in the morning. Nothing unexpected happened last night, so everyone naturally didn't wake him up.
Rao made cassoulet and brought it here for them to eat. After eating, they took away the pot and bowl, and they continued to watch the kiln.
In the evening, the pottery finally came out of the kiln, and Cheng Sui was very nervous. He didn't know if it could be fired well, and he was afraid that the higher the expectation, the greater the disappointment.
The tribesmen came back from hunting and hunting, and they all rushed over to watch. They were also very nervous, and the audience was very quiet. They all focused on watching Sui take out the pottery.
A total of [-] to [-] pieces of pottery were fired in this batch. After being inspected in detail, only five or six pieces of pottery were burnt out, and the rest were all high-quality finished products.
After he announced the good news, everyone was erupting instantly. They sang and danced excitedly, prostrated themselves on the ground to thank the beast god, the priest, and Sui, and cheered for a long time.
After everyone calmed down a bit, Sui said: "I have one more thing I hope to get everyone's support. I want to build some latrines in the tribe. In the future, everyone will defecate and urinate in the latrines..."
He knew that the clansmen would definitely not understand, but planting requires a lot of farmyard manure, and there must be a lot of manure in order to plant.
Taking advantage of making pottery now, everyone's trust in him has reached its peak, and it is easiest to get support for making this strange request.
He had already explained it in great detail, but the clansmen were still at a loss after listening to it.
Although everyone said: "Sui, you can do whatever you want, we will listen to you..."
But the grown-ups still read from the puzzled eyes of the clansmen: What's the use of shitting together?Is Sui starting to be silly again?Why is this stupid illness so repeated?
Both Yu and Ying couldn't understand Sui's actions, but Yu still said, "Sui, you can do what you want, and it won't delay anything for the tribe."
Cheng Sui didn't explain any further, and just said, "Abba, you need to transfer one person from the hunting team to me every day. I can fix all the toilets in three to five days at most."
Rao agreed, although he also felt that Sui was being stupid and doing strange things, but Sui had made great contributions to making good pottery, and he took it as a reward for Sui.
The clansmen are happy to accompany Sui to be silly, they think that as long as there is pottery to use, let alone shit together, Sui can let them eat shit!
Cheng Sui said again: "Ying, please select a few people in the tribe and teach them how to make pottery. If anyone wants to make pottery in the future, they should prepare all the raw materials first, and then ask those who can make pottery to help them. Each family will use the kiln in turn. ..."
He knows that Yingzhi people are good at their duties, and they will definitely be able to select the most suitable people for pottery making.
All the people in the clan think that the arrangement of the year is particularly good, and they also know that most people can't learn how to make pottery, so that everyone can use pottery and save time and effort.
Finally, Sui added: "If you want to learn how to make pottery, everyone can teach each other. When the kiln and the embryo-drawing turntable are not in use, you can come to practice. Quartz is a raw material that you can't prepare. I will regularly go to Pantian Snow Mountain to transport it back. Get ready."
Adults also understand that only smart and dexterous people can learn how to make pottery, and other people can't make good pottery even if they learn superficially, but he still thinks it's best for everyone to try to learn.
Even if you can't learn it, being familiar with the process of making pottery can also help you when making pottery.
Everyone was very excited after hearing this, and said one after another: "Sui, you are so thoughtful, we will be able to use pottery in the future, and we can learn how to make pottery, it's like a dream..."
Ying promised: "Sui, go get busy, leave this to me, and I will arrange everything according to what you said. If there is any problem that cannot be solved, I will come to you again."
Cheng Sui knows that Ying speaks impeccably and that Ying's pottery making skills are no problem at all, but Ying just wants to say this so that everyone will always remember that pottery making is his credit, even though Ying is in charge now.
In the next few days, Cheng Sui dug the latrine with the clansman whom Rao had transferred to him.
What he did was very simple. He dug a deep pit, covered the bottom of the pit with stone slabs, and built the pit walls with gravel to ensure durability. .
For the convenience of everyone, a total of four large latrines have been built, two at the foot of the mountain and two at the side of the mountain. The toilets for men and women are separated, so no matter where the clansmen live, they will not go too far to go to the toilet.
Because the priest lives on the top of the mountain, the priest is supreme, and the orcs don't allow a lot of filth to appear near the priest's residence, so naturally they can't build latrines on the top of the mountain.
Adults are very clear that they cannot challenge the respect of the priests. When it comes to collective shit, they must never mention the priests and the priests' apprentices.
He also built a small toilet in an open space not far from his home, which is mainly for his own home.
Because it is definitely not possible to realize all planting and animal husbandry in the short term. He plans to start planting by himself first, using his own manure is basically enough, and saving the big latrines of the tribe for large-scale planting in the future.
He has to plant himself first, and the harvest is good before he can promote the whole planting. If the harvest is not good, he has to continue to improve the planting method.
Secondly, he knew very well that Yu and Rao would support him in doing anything, but they would never let him do things that might cause his clansmen to starve to death.
Both planting and animal husbandry require a lot of labor, but if the harvest cannot be guaranteed for the time being, then it is absolutely impossible.
It only took him five days to repair all the toilets.
In the past few days, he has also sun-dried the soybeans, selected the best seeds, and used the rest to eat.
He is going to make some "crispy soybeans" as a snack first, and it is convenient for everyone to taste the taste. It is very simple to make, and you can make it by the way when making dinner.
First soak the soybeans in clean water until the grains are full, remove and drain the water, and then spread out to dry all the water on the surface. This step is very important, otherwise the soybeans will splash around when frying.
While drying off, he made a big pot of ragout for dinner.
Sheng Gang was sweating profusely after collecting them. He ate wild fruits to quench his thirst and said, "Sui, I have picked a lot of the pink fruits, small bubble fruits and yellow fruits you want. Do you want me to wash them now?"
Cheng Sui stirred the goat milk in the pot, and said, "Okay, I'll make fruit milk for you."
Sheng had drunk it before, and he liked it very much, so he ran to wash it immediately.
It is very simple to make fruit and milk for adults. After peeling the fruit, use a stone pestle to mash the fruit into a mixed state of pulp and juice, and then add goat milk to remove the fishy smell. It is more natural and delicious.
The pink fruits here are peaches, the small bubble fruits are grapes, and the yellow fruits are mangoes. These kinds of fruits are the best for milk. The wild fruits here are very sweet, and there is no need to add sugar.
In the scorching summer, he put all the fruit he made into milk on the big rocks in the pool to "cool it off".
At this time, the soybeans are also dried, and the soybeans are fried in cold oil in a cold pan, which is particularly crispy. If the soybeans are put in a hot oil pan, the soybeans will be mushy on the outside and soft on the inside, which is not tasty.
Slowly fry the soybeans over low heat until the skin of the soybeans is wrinkled, scoop them up with a colander, and the sound is crisp, and the frying is complete. Finally, remove all the soybeans and control the oil.
After cooling, put it in a clay pot and keep it sealed, and take it when you want to eat.
Adults keep two small bowls outside, put sugar in one bowl and salt in the other bowl, stir well and eat it, whether it is sweet or salty, it is delicious, and it is extremely crispy.
When his parents and elder brother came back from hunting, he yelled at the top of the mountain: "Ying, please come and help get something for the priest."
The "communication" here depends on roaring, and Ying responds from the top of the mountain: "I'll come right away."
Of course, the purpose of becoming an adult is to let Ying come down to eat delicious food, and by the way, Yu can bring food up.
He served everyone a bowl of cassoulet and a bowl of iced fruit and milk.
Yingxian took a big mouthful of milk, and another mouthful of cassoulet, and said in surprise: "Sui, this is called fruit milk? It's so sweet and delicious. It's so refreshing when you eat it! The cassoulet is also delicious. It's delicious! How did you make it?"
Cheng Sui smiled and said: "You don't need to know how to cook. You will be a priest in the future. You don't need to learn such trivial things as cooking. I will cook for you whatever you want."
Ying blamed and said, "You are the only one who is talkative."
During the meal, Sheng asked Ying many things about the King of Alien Beasts, and Ying patiently told him everything.
After the meal, Cheng Sui took out the two bowls of mixed crispy soybeans.
Ying ate a few sweet and salty ones, and said, "Sui, is this the soybean you mentioned? It's so crispy, delicious, and fried in rapeseed oil?"
Cheng Sui nodded and said, "Well, this is called Crispy Soybean, a delicious snack."
Sheng one after another, couldn't stop eating, said: "The more you eat, the more delicious it is, the salty and sweet ones are delicious."
After a while, the two bowls were finished, and everyone was still unsatisfied.
Sui gave Yu a bowl of cold fruit and milk, a bowl of cassoulet, and a can of crispy soybeans, which he put in a dustpan, and Ying took them to the top of the mountain.
Afterwards, he took out the whole can of crispy soybeans and divided them into two parts, one mixed with sugar and the other mixed with salt, and asked Rao and Jiang Chu to distribute it to all the people who had fallen.
Although there are not many, each person can only get a few seeds, but he wants to give everyone a taste, so that everyone can plant together in the future.
He also left a can for the Giant Eagle Tribe. The Giant Eagle Tribe helped a lot when they collected soybeans.
As soon as he finished dividing the crispy soybeans, he saw Sheng standing on the edge of the dam and urinating in the grass below.
Before the latrine was repaired, they just found a place to defecate and pee. Anyway, there are tall grass and big trees everywhere, which naturally turn into fertilizer for the land, but this can no longer be the case.
He hurriedly said: "Second brother, the toilets are all repaired, no matter who shits or pees, you have to go to the toilet!"
Sheng
After Yulai explained his intentions, a Fengshen pterosaur went to report, and soon an orc in black robe came to take them up the mountain in person.
Mingying originally thought that he had to wait on the mountainside like last time, but the black-robed orc beckoned him to go together.
This made him so happy, he had long wanted to see how luxurious Yizhi's place was.
I came to the previous big cave again, but only a few days later, there were some more wooden furniture here, and what shocked me most was that the furniture was quite delicate.
Although there is no carving or lacquer, it is polished very smoothly. Compared with the orc tribe who only use flat stones as furniture, these are too advanced.
Yizhi was sitting in front of a set of wooden tables and chairs, still wearing a white robe.
It's just that he didn't wear a crown today, and his long ink-like satin hair was combed back into a big back. When he was an adult, he felt that this hairstyle was exactly the same as that of Orlando, the elf prince in "The Lord of the Rings".
Even with a silver mask on, the grown-up still finds the beauty of alienation.
Cheng Sui would like to ask Yi Zhi: Can you already make something as advanced as "Pomade", or how did your hair get so beautiful and docile?
Of course he didn't dare to ask, he was also afraid of the cruelty and bloodthirsty of heterodoxy, so it's better to speak less in front of overly powerful people.
Before Yu could speak, Yizhi said, "I agree to your request."
Cheng Sui didn't expect it to go so smoothly, but he thought about it, this mountain has a lot of quartz, and this kind of natural resource is not a rare thing, so there is nothing to disagree with.
Yu put the still steaming steamed and fried dumplings in front of Yi Zhi, and said, "My lord, this is made by Sui, try it."
Yi Zhi slightly nodded and said, "Okay."
Under the signal of the black-robed orc, they put down their food and left the cave.
Both Cheng Sui and Yu could understand that Yizhi let them go so quickly. After all, Yizhi was imprisoned in a dungeon since he was a child and rarely interacted with people, so naturally he didn't like to talk to people much.
After walking out of the cave, Mingying turned into a beast shape, and carried Sui and Yu away from here.
Mingying said excitedly along the way: "Wow, the cave where Yizhuan lives is too beautiful. I have never seen those things before. Today is an eye-opener..."
That night Mingying went back to the Giant Eagle Tribe, and the next day Yunying and Mingying brought the other three giant eagle orcs to the dam of Sui's house.
The Giant Eagle Tribe heard that the Big Tiger Tribe wanted to make pottery. The patriarch Hongying, who is the mother of the Yunying siblings, came to find Rao in person, and said that she would send as many giant eagles as she needed. Eagle tribe pottery.
The two tribes were originally an excellent alliance, and Rao readily agreed.
With the help of the giant eagle tribe, moving the quartz is much easier. Cheng Sui took everyone with stone hammers, bone knives, animal skin bags and other tools, and took the giant eagle to Pantian Snow Mountain.
When you are an adult, you will first be taught to identify quartz, and then everyone will work hard to collect it.
Some quartz is embedded in huge stones and needs tools such as stone hammers and bone knives to mine them out.
The mining tools were far inferior to modern iron tools, but the orcs were particularly strong, and the mining went smoothly.
The big tiger tribe transferred three particularly strong orcs from the hunting team, and the three orcs from the giant eagle tribe were also very strong. Yunying and Sheng were also mining, and Mingying flew around with Sui, familiar with everything around here.
There are many high mountains around Pantian Snow Mountain, which do not belong to any tribe, nor do they belong to the Wangting branch. I want to see what can be collected and utilized on these high mountains.
After flying around, he found that these high mountains are very barren, a bit like a mine, with few animals and plants.
The orcs don't know how to use minerals yet, so they naturally think that these mountains are useless, so no tribe divides them into their territory.
The Wang Ting branch only occupies Pantian Snow Mountain, because the Wang Ting branch does not need territory, they can go wherever they want, and they are supported by three major tribes, so they don't need to work at all.
Now the Wang Ting branch of Yizhi has subdued the "Pterosaur Clan", "Giant Python Clan", and "Saber-toothed Tiger Clan", and these three tribes have powerful influence in the royal court and are also very rich.
Mingying asked curiously: "What's the use of these bare mountains? Even the weeds don't grow much, Sui, what are you looking for?"
Cheng Sui explained: "If you don't look for anything, just look around. These mountains may be of great use in the future. This is called a mine. It can be used to make iron, smelt copper, and refine gold and silver..."
Mingying didn't understand at all, so he asked: "What iron and copper are you talking about, can you eat it? Is it delicious?"
Cheng Sui: ...you really deserve to be a foodie, you just know how to eat.
He said: "It can't be eaten, but it is very useful, but now we don't have the ability to mine ore, and we don't have the energy to smelt it. These are too complicated and require a lot of labor."
Sui Sui knows that metal smelting can only be considered after planting and animal husbandry are popularized in the tribe at least. The basic living needs of the orcs cannot be met, and it is simply not practical to do other things.
Mingying half-understood and said: "Anyway, whatever you do, I will trust you and support you!"
Cheng Sui: ...You really are my number one brainless fan.
Flying all the mines around here, Cheng Sui basically knew it in his heart. On the way back, he was attracted by a piece of golden weeds.
He immediately said: "Go over there and have a look, and land in that yellow grass."
After Mingying landed, Cheng Sui came down to check immediately, he jumped up excitedly: "Mingying, this is soybeans, great, we can make tofu and soy sauce!"
He never expected that when he came out to look at the mine, he could actually see soybeans on this particularly remote hillside.
There are almost no orcs here, no wonder no one has found such a delicious food!
The conditions for the survival of soybeans are relatively harsh. There must be little rain and the temperature must be maintained at around ten degrees. However, most places here have a lot of rain, and the temperature difference between day and night is large, which leads to the absence of soybeans in most places.
This hillside is hidden in a large mine. Although there is a lot of rain, the hillside is steep and the natural drainage system is good. The temperature on the hillside is maintained at more than ten degrees, so soybeans can grow naturally.
Mingying asked excitedly: "What are tofu and soy sauce? They sound delicious!"
Cheng Sui said excitedly: "You will know when I make it, and we will collect these soybeans tomorrow."
When the two returned to Pantian Snow Mountain, it was almost evening, and the clansmen filled up the animal skin bags they had brought, and they were waiting for them to fly back together.
At this time, a strong man in a black robe walked towards them. Cheng Sui recognized him at a glance. He was Yi Zhi's "confidant minister", named Yi Hai, a Fengshen pterosaur orc.
The last time all the priests and tribal chiefs met with Yizhi was the meeting "hosted" by Yihai, and he was also the one who led them to meet Yizhi yesterday.
Yi Hai walked to Cheng Sui's side, and handed him clean stone bowls and clay pots with a slight fragrance.
This is the tableware left by Yi Zhi when they delivered dumplings yesterday, Cheng Sui didn't expect Yi Zhi to be so careful that he remembered to return it.
Yi Hai nodded slightly and said: "Sui, the leader asked me to take the message. The dumplings you made are delicious. If you need any help in the future, you can come to him at any time."
Cheng Sui didn't realize it, he thought that Yizhi was cruel and bloodthirsty, and he would not be moved by anything, let alone a mere food guide, but Yizhi praised his food!
He has always regarded his obsession as a "shameful young tyrant", he thought about it, the tyrant should just be in a good mood today.
Tyrants, moodiness is standard.
But this does not prevent him from fantasizing: After getting acquainted with Yizhi, let me see if Yizhi can be turned into a Tyrannosaurus Rex. I am so curious about everything about Tyrannosaurus Rex!
There are very few people whose beast form is a Tyrannosaurus rex. When Yizhi becomes a Tyrannosaurus rex and fights, they are all far away from here. As a result, almost no one has ever seen a Tyrannosaurus rex. They have only heard of it. never seen it.
What's more, even if someone knew where the aliens turned into Tyrannosaurus Rex were fighting, no one dared to watch, after all, everyone was afraid of death.
He wanted to see the Tyrannosaurus rex from a distance when he was an adult, and he felt that he was going to die.
He thought to himself, what if the tyrannosaurus rex turned into a yawn accidentally swallows himself?
Adult: Hurry up, stop thinking about it, I'm so cowardly!
When Cheng Sui came to his senses, Yi Hai turned around and left. He shouted, "I see, thank you, sir!"
Yihai just nodded slightly, and then turned into Fengshen pterosaur, spreading its huge wings and flying away.
Mingying said excitedly: "The dumplings made by Sui are really delicious, not to mention the obsession, even the beast gods can't help but praise them after eating them!"
Adult: ...that's too exaggerated.
Yunying glared at his younger brother, and reprimanded: "You can mention the Beast God casually, don't talk nonsense, it will cause trouble for Sui."
Mingying immediately covered his mouth and nodded, expressing that he would never dare again.
They flew back to the Tiger Tribe together, and Yunying was still leading the way, and the powerful airflow she raised could make the giant eagle behind fly easier and faster.
When they flew over the territory of the giant wolf tribe, a group of particularly strong orcs stood on the ground and waved to them.
Cheng Sui recognized at a glance that the leader was Lang Ji, the second-in-command of the Giant Wolf Tribe. Last time he tried to exchange seeds with Lang Ji but failed, and Lang Ji was beaten by Lang Xiao.
Yunying asked: "Sui, will you go down and meet them? They must have nothing good to say, it's best not to go, I'm too lazy to talk to them."
As a grown-up, he realized that he hadn't changed to sorghum, so he said, "It's okay to go and see, I want to see what other tricks they have."
They landed beside the group of orcs, and Cheng Sui walked up to the fierce wolf and asked, "What's the matter?"
The wolf fiercely cursed directly: "You are a big fool, Rao and Jiangchu just raised a scourge... Don't be in contact with the aliens anymore, you will kill us all, and Enling can wipe out all the tribes around here !"
Cheng Sui was not angry at all. He knew that he could make pottery, which would definitely arouse the jealousy of the giant wolf tribe, and they would try their best to prevent him from making pottery.
This is one of the ways to prevent him from going to the different persistence to ask for quartz.
Now all the tribes are trying to curry favor with Yizhi, wanting to exchange for good things, and he is not the only one who went to find Yizhi, and the "crime" that the wolf so fiercely pinned on him was not established at all.
The wolf said viciously: "I don't want to fight today, I want to see how long the priest, Ren Yu, can protect you. Sooner or later, you will be burned to death as a monster!"
Cheng Sui thought to himself: Hehe, you dare not fight. The relationship between the two tribes is very tense now. Once a tribal war is provoked, how many lives do you have to atone for your sins?
Afterwards, the fierce wolf revealed his real purpose: "If you go to find Yizhi for any stone, we will all be implicated by you. If you make pottery, you must teach us, otherwise we will unite with other tribes to sacrifice you to the beast god .”
Cheng Sui thought: Hehe, you are here waiting for me. If you want to prostitute and make pottery, you will be charged with various crimes. It is a pity that the charges you fabricated are not true at all.
All the tribes knew that even though Yizhi and Enling were fighting for the throne, ordinary orc tribes did not pose any threat to them and could not be implicated.
Sui Sui knows that now the Giant Wolf tribe is "jumping over the wall" because they don't have any more valuable things to exchange for pottery.
Even if the Giant Wolf Tribe agreed to exchange sorghum seeds for pottery making, he would definitely not agree.
First of all, the methods of sorghum planting and pottery making are not at the same level. Secondly, he had taught Lang Xiao the method of making vermicelli and flour before, but Lang Xiao denied that he had not given sorghum.
The ten-day deadline is coming soon, and Rao will not let the giant wolf tribe continue to deny it.
Cheng Sui sneered and said, "As you please, I'll wait."
The wolf cursed viciously: "Sui, you will die badly. You are a monster, and you will bring disaster to all our tribes. The beast god will issue an oracle, and you will definitely be burned to death and stoned to death... ..."
Cheng Sui didn't care at all, he sat on Mingying's back and said: "Let's go, let him go crazy with envy and jealousy, no matter how crazy he is, he can't do anything to me."
Yun Ying soared into the sky, and all the giant eagles flew away with her. Flying far away, they could still hear the people of the giant wolf tribe cursing loudly.
As an adult, he knew that it was normal for the Tiger Tribe and the Giant Eagle Tribe to praise him for his pottery making skills, and how much other hostile tribes belittled and slandered him.
Yun Ying couldn't help comforting: "Sui, don't care about them like them, you just pretend you didn't hear, their mouths are so cheap, they will definitely be punished by the beast god, let them rot their mouths and tongues..."
Cheng Sui said very calmly: "Yunying, I'm not angry at all. If they don't make trouble, I don't think it's normal. I think they must be holding back some big moves. That's good."
Yunying froze for a moment, she looked at Sui, the setting sun shone on Sui's fair and thin body, like the beast god that the priest said was shrouded in golden light.
At this moment, she felt that Sui was the tallest and strongest beastman!
After breakfast the next day, the Yunying sister and brother landed in the dam of the Sui family with two Giant Eagles. Today was to harvest soybeans, and the quartz collected yesterday was enough.
Because it was discovered a bit late, the soybeans were all ripe, and the pods had been sun-dried, so they had to be threshed on site. The grown-ups brought the large animal skins and flails from the last rapeseed harvest.
After arriving at the destination, the adults directly spread out the animal skins, and the giant eagle orcs put all the harvested soybean stalks on the animal skins.
Sheng was in charge of beating the beans with a flail, Mingying carried out the stalks, and Cheng Sui and Yunying put the shattered soybeans in bags.
Everyone worked together, and it only took one day to collect all the soybeans on this hillside, which were full of three big animal skin bags.
Cheng Sui said that when he makes tofu and soy sauce, he will teach Yunying how to make it, and will distribute some to the Giant Eagle tribe, and teach them how to grow soybeans.
Yunying said that they don't need anything in return for helping to carry. Originally, they promised that as long as they can learn how to make pottery, they will be able to carry as many things as they need when they grow up.
Cheng Sui didn't say anything, but he knew in his heart that he would never treat the allied tribe badly.
After breakfast the next day, he brought Yunying sister and brother and the three clansmen assigned to him by Rao to the kiln, ready to make pottery.
Yu and her apprentices are already waiting here. They have recorded the process of making clay kilns before, and today they will record the process of making pottery.
All the children and old people in the tribe, who didn’t have to go out to hunt and hunt, all came to watch. From time to time, they prostrated themselves on the ground and kowtowed to the beast god, praying that the beast god would bless the success of making pottery.
Of course Cheng Sui was very nervous, even breathing a bit short of breath, he was afraid of disappointing his clansmen.
Yu comforted: "Sui, it doesn't matter if you can't make it. Making pottery is very difficult, and the King of Alien Beasts can only be made by very powerful senior craftsmen. If you have the courage to try, it is already very good."
Cheng Sui said firmly: "Master Priest, I will do my best."
He recalled the pottery process he learned systematically in modern times, and he also made many high-quality pottery himself.
It's just that there are various machine-assisted operations in modern times, but here it can only be done by hand.
Before that, he had prepared kaolin, and he had also done the first step of pottery making, "mud washing". The mud that had been settled for two days had a particularly high viscosity, and it could be shaped by just kneading it after mixing it evenly.
He explained in detail while doing it: "You are like me, stack the mud into a column that is half the height of your arm, put it aside and use it to pull the embryo later..."
The orcs have great strength and quick hands and feet, and they piled up all the mud in a short while.
The purpose of stacking mud is to make pottery more convenient in the future. A lot of mud is stacked at one time, and it can be used directly when making pottery.
Before I was an adult, I made three foot-operated embryo-pulling turntables. I used wood as the base, and polished smooth stone discs were used to pull the embryos. I can quickly turn the discs by stepping on them.
The process of embryo drawing is particularly critical, and it requires a lot of practice to do it well, otherwise it will not be well formed, or it will be easily broken, and various problems will appear.
Adults use one embryo pulling turntable, and Yunying and Yu each use one.
While pulling the embryo, he explained: "To make pottery as big as you want, take as much clay, put it on the turntable, step on it to make the turntable turn quickly, and knead the clay with your hands..."
Yunying and Yu tried many times, but they failed to make a shape. Cheng Sui has rich experience in drawing blanks, and quickly made a very beautiful wide-mouthed pottery bowl blank.
The onlookers said excitedly while watching:
"It's amazing. Put a pile of mud on the turntable, turn it around and knead it, and it looks like a bowl. I can't believe my eyes!"
"When offering sacrifices to the beast gods, the pottery bowls used are exactly the same as the one Sui is making now. Can this bowl be used after drying? Sui is too powerful, and our tribe will have no shortage of pottery in the future."
"It looks so simple, I think I can do it."
"Hehe, your eyes know it, but your hands will never learn it. It looks simple, but Yunying is so smart and Mr. Priest is so powerful, so he didn't make it."
……
The clansmen were so excited, they danced and sang and cheered after watching for a while, and prostrated themselves on the ground to thank the Beast God, Sui and Yu.
Cheng Sui taught Yunying and Yu in detail how to take shape.
Both Yunying and Yu are very good at learning. They can make relatively simple prototypes of pottery bowls in a short time, and they are getting better and better.
The clansmen also listened carefully and studied carefully. Sui said to them: "When the turntable is not in use, you can also practice embryo pulling. You can learn it by doing more practice. I will let everyone use pottery."
Everyone was so excited that tears welled up in their eyes. They never imagined that they could make and use pottery by themselves in the future, which they never dared to dream of!
Their voices trembled:
"As long as I can use the clay bowl and pot for a day, I can die immediately."
"Pottery is a precious item that we can only see when offering sacrifices to beast gods. I didn't expect my old lady to enjoy such a blessing before she died!"
"Go to the tribes around the Alien Beast King's Court to exchange pottery. They always give us pottery with gaps, but we have to exchange it with the best meat and fur. I'm so angry that I vomit blood, and there's nothing I can do about it."
"I remember that one year the replacements for us were all broken, and they were all cracked when we got them back. In the second year, we went to them to reason and were threatened not to exchange anything with us again. We could only swallow our anger."
"It's great that I don't have to suffer from such uselessness anymore!"
……
Listening to the words of the clansmen as an adult, I feel extremely happy.
After countless times of practice, both Yu and Yunying made qualified pottery bowl blanks.
Yu said to his apprentices, "Ying, come here first and learn how to do it."
Ying is Yu's most proud student, no matter what he does, he has a very high level of comprehension.
Ying is also an orc from the Tiger Tribe. He lost his parents when he was very young. Because he is very smart, he has been studying with Yu since he was eight years old.
Therefore, Ying is not only Yu's apprentice, but also Yu's "granddaughter". Ying is only 16 years old, the same age as Sheng, but she is already a well-known "little priest".
Although the apprentices of priests are all respected, not many can be called "little priests". This honorary title means that Ying has already become a leader on his own.
I taught Ying once when I was an adult, and Ying was able to make particularly good pottery bowl blanks, which proves that Ying learned it just now when I watched it, and her hands-on ability is also very strong.
So Cheng Sui immediately taught Ying to make more complicated clay pots and pots. Ying learned it several times and practiced it more than ten times, and he was able to make it as well as Sui.
Cheng Sui exclaimed: "Ying, you are too amazing!"
Ying said modestly, "You taught me well."
Some time ago, Ying went to the King of Alien Beasts to study, and she just came back a few days ago. Of course, she was very happy to see that Sui had changed so much.
Originally, Yu was supposed to go together, but two people had to pay two "tuition fees" to study, so Yu gave up the opportunity to study to Ying.
While making pottery, Ying whispered in Sui's ear, "I left you a lot of hot pots, and I hung them outside your shed at night. Remember to pick them up tomorrow morning."
Spicy mouth is wild ginger, and the priest would lead his apprentices to dig herbs every day, and spicy mouth was one of the herbs, but Yu didn't allow Yingbang Sui to do these small things, so she could only do it secretly.
Cheng Sui teased in a low voice: "Sister, you must not be discovered, or you will be punished by grandma again."
Yingchen said angrily: "Stinky boy, don't worry about it."
At this time, Ying's whole face was radiant. She always treated Sui as her own younger brother, and she liked to hear Sui call her sister the most.
As an adult, she also knows that Ying lost her family when she was very young, and she longs for family affection. Ying regards Yu as her own grandmother and Yu's family as her family.
Ever since she was a child, Ying would bring all kinds of sweet wild fruits to Sui Hesheng every time she went out to pick herbs, but now they are replaced by Sui's favorite wild vegetables.
Sui also treats Ying as his own sister, and will not be polite to Ying in these small matters.
Cheng Sui proudly said: "Sister, I will make a lot of delicious food now, and I can't eat it without you, and I will cook it for you slowly in the future."
Ying felt as sweet as honey in his heart, but he didn't show it, teasing, "I'm not as greedy as you."
Throughout the day, they are constantly pulling the blanks, and the finished pottery blanks need to be dried in the shade for several days before being glazed.
Three to five days later, after checking that the pottery was dry in the shade, I was busy adjusting the "glaze", which is the key to making top-grade high-temperature resistant pottery.
He asked the three clansmen to mix quartz, borax, clay, feldspar, etc. and grind them into powder.
This is a lot of hard work, but the people transferred from the hunting team are very strong, so this job is not difficult for them.
When I was an adult, I burned plant ash, which is the soul of glaze making. Even in the modern pottery world, there has always been a famous saying "no ash, no glaze".
Mix the powder made of quartz and other ash with plant ash, add an appropriate amount of water and stir well until it becomes an extremely silky glaze slurry, which is made into ceramic glaze.
When I was an adult, I went to fire the kiln again. The kiln was fired in advance. After the temperature was very high, pottery could be fired directly.
Then the first batch of pottery was put into the kiln for firing, which took more than [-] hours.
At night, Cheng Sui and his three clansmen slept directly on a large flat stone not far from the kiln, so that it was convenient to take care of the kiln.
Ying and Yunying also slept here, of course for the whole process of learning, not missing any link.
There are many insects and ants sleeping outside, and adults burn a lot of wormwood and wood chips beside the stone where they sleep, which can not only repel insects and ants, but also help them sleep.
They took turns looking after the kiln, and according to the requirements of the year, they ensured that the fire in the kiln was always particularly strong.
It was the first time he slept outside as an adult, smelling the incomparably fresh air of nature, looking at the cloudless sky full of stars, and occasionally pterosaurs flying by, he felt as if he was sleeping in a magnificent prehistoric picture.
He slept well that night, and it was his turn to look at the kiln in the morning. Nothing unexpected happened last night, so everyone naturally didn't wake him up.
Rao made cassoulet and brought it here for them to eat. After eating, they took away the pot and bowl, and they continued to watch the kiln.
In the evening, the pottery finally came out of the kiln, and Cheng Sui was very nervous. He didn't know if it could be fired well, and he was afraid that the higher the expectation, the greater the disappointment.
The tribesmen came back from hunting and hunting, and they all rushed over to watch. They were also very nervous, and the audience was very quiet. They all focused on watching Sui take out the pottery.
A total of [-] to [-] pieces of pottery were fired in this batch. After being inspected in detail, only five or six pieces of pottery were burnt out, and the rest were all high-quality finished products.
After he announced the good news, everyone was erupting instantly. They sang and danced excitedly, prostrated themselves on the ground to thank the beast god, the priest, and Sui, and cheered for a long time.
After everyone calmed down a bit, Sui said: "I have one more thing I hope to get everyone's support. I want to build some latrines in the tribe. In the future, everyone will defecate and urinate in the latrines..."
He knew that the clansmen would definitely not understand, but planting requires a lot of farmyard manure, and there must be a lot of manure in order to plant.
Taking advantage of making pottery now, everyone's trust in him has reached its peak, and it is easiest to get support for making this strange request.
He had already explained it in great detail, but the clansmen were still at a loss after listening to it.
Although everyone said: "Sui, you can do whatever you want, we will listen to you..."
But the grown-ups still read from the puzzled eyes of the clansmen: What's the use of shitting together?Is Sui starting to be silly again?Why is this stupid illness so repeated?
Both Yu and Ying couldn't understand Sui's actions, but Yu still said, "Sui, you can do what you want, and it won't delay anything for the tribe."
Cheng Sui didn't explain any further, and just said, "Abba, you need to transfer one person from the hunting team to me every day. I can fix all the toilets in three to five days at most."
Rao agreed, although he also felt that Sui was being stupid and doing strange things, but Sui had made great contributions to making good pottery, and he took it as a reward for Sui.
The clansmen are happy to accompany Sui to be silly, they think that as long as there is pottery to use, let alone shit together, Sui can let them eat shit!
Cheng Sui said again: "Ying, please select a few people in the tribe and teach them how to make pottery. If anyone wants to make pottery in the future, they should prepare all the raw materials first, and then ask those who can make pottery to help them. Each family will use the kiln in turn. ..."
He knows that Yingzhi people are good at their duties, and they will definitely be able to select the most suitable people for pottery making.
All the people in the clan think that the arrangement of the year is particularly good, and they also know that most people can't learn how to make pottery, so that everyone can use pottery and save time and effort.
Finally, Sui added: "If you want to learn how to make pottery, everyone can teach each other. When the kiln and the embryo-drawing turntable are not in use, you can come to practice. Quartz is a raw material that you can't prepare. I will regularly go to Pantian Snow Mountain to transport it back. Get ready."
Adults also understand that only smart and dexterous people can learn how to make pottery, and other people can't make good pottery even if they learn superficially, but he still thinks it's best for everyone to try to learn.
Even if you can't learn it, being familiar with the process of making pottery can also help you when making pottery.
Everyone was very excited after hearing this, and said one after another: "Sui, you are so thoughtful, we will be able to use pottery in the future, and we can learn how to make pottery, it's like a dream..."
Ying promised: "Sui, go get busy, leave this to me, and I will arrange everything according to what you said. If there is any problem that cannot be solved, I will come to you again."
Cheng Sui knows that Ying speaks impeccably and that Ying's pottery making skills are no problem at all, but Ying just wants to say this so that everyone will always remember that pottery making is his credit, even though Ying is in charge now.
In the next few days, Cheng Sui dug the latrine with the clansman whom Rao had transferred to him.
What he did was very simple. He dug a deep pit, covered the bottom of the pit with stone slabs, and built the pit walls with gravel to ensure durability. .
For the convenience of everyone, a total of four large latrines have been built, two at the foot of the mountain and two at the side of the mountain. The toilets for men and women are separated, so no matter where the clansmen live, they will not go too far to go to the toilet.
Because the priest lives on the top of the mountain, the priest is supreme, and the orcs don't allow a lot of filth to appear near the priest's residence, so naturally they can't build latrines on the top of the mountain.
Adults are very clear that they cannot challenge the respect of the priests. When it comes to collective shit, they must never mention the priests and the priests' apprentices.
He also built a small toilet in an open space not far from his home, which is mainly for his own home.
Because it is definitely not possible to realize all planting and animal husbandry in the short term. He plans to start planting by himself first, using his own manure is basically enough, and saving the big latrines of the tribe for large-scale planting in the future.
He has to plant himself first, and the harvest is good before he can promote the whole planting. If the harvest is not good, he has to continue to improve the planting method.
Secondly, he knew very well that Yu and Rao would support him in doing anything, but they would never let him do things that might cause his clansmen to starve to death.
Both planting and animal husbandry require a lot of labor, but if the harvest cannot be guaranteed for the time being, then it is absolutely impossible.
It only took him five days to repair all the toilets.
In the past few days, he has also sun-dried the soybeans, selected the best seeds, and used the rest to eat.
He is going to make some "crispy soybeans" as a snack first, and it is convenient for everyone to taste the taste. It is very simple to make, and you can make it by the way when making dinner.
First soak the soybeans in clean water until the grains are full, remove and drain the water, and then spread out to dry all the water on the surface. This step is very important, otherwise the soybeans will splash around when frying.
While drying off, he made a big pot of ragout for dinner.
Sheng Gang was sweating profusely after collecting them. He ate wild fruits to quench his thirst and said, "Sui, I have picked a lot of the pink fruits, small bubble fruits and yellow fruits you want. Do you want me to wash them now?"
Cheng Sui stirred the goat milk in the pot, and said, "Okay, I'll make fruit milk for you."
Sheng had drunk it before, and he liked it very much, so he ran to wash it immediately.
It is very simple to make fruit and milk for adults. After peeling the fruit, use a stone pestle to mash the fruit into a mixed state of pulp and juice, and then add goat milk to remove the fishy smell. It is more natural and delicious.
The pink fruits here are peaches, the small bubble fruits are grapes, and the yellow fruits are mangoes. These kinds of fruits are the best for milk. The wild fruits here are very sweet, and there is no need to add sugar.
In the scorching summer, he put all the fruit he made into milk on the big rocks in the pool to "cool it off".
At this time, the soybeans are also dried, and the soybeans are fried in cold oil in a cold pan, which is particularly crispy. If the soybeans are put in a hot oil pan, the soybeans will be mushy on the outside and soft on the inside, which is not tasty.
Slowly fry the soybeans over low heat until the skin of the soybeans is wrinkled, scoop them up with a colander, and the sound is crisp, and the frying is complete. Finally, remove all the soybeans and control the oil.
After cooling, put it in a clay pot and keep it sealed, and take it when you want to eat.
Adults keep two small bowls outside, put sugar in one bowl and salt in the other bowl, stir well and eat it, whether it is sweet or salty, it is delicious, and it is extremely crispy.
When his parents and elder brother came back from hunting, he yelled at the top of the mountain: "Ying, please come and help get something for the priest."
The "communication" here depends on roaring, and Ying responds from the top of the mountain: "I'll come right away."
Of course, the purpose of becoming an adult is to let Ying come down to eat delicious food, and by the way, Yu can bring food up.
He served everyone a bowl of cassoulet and a bowl of iced fruit and milk.
Yingxian took a big mouthful of milk, and another mouthful of cassoulet, and said in surprise: "Sui, this is called fruit milk? It's so sweet and delicious. It's so refreshing when you eat it! The cassoulet is also delicious. It's delicious! How did you make it?"
Cheng Sui smiled and said: "You don't need to know how to cook. You will be a priest in the future. You don't need to learn such trivial things as cooking. I will cook for you whatever you want."
Ying blamed and said, "You are the only one who is talkative."
During the meal, Sheng asked Ying many things about the King of Alien Beasts, and Ying patiently told him everything.
After the meal, Cheng Sui took out the two bowls of mixed crispy soybeans.
Ying ate a few sweet and salty ones, and said, "Sui, is this the soybean you mentioned? It's so crispy, delicious, and fried in rapeseed oil?"
Cheng Sui nodded and said, "Well, this is called Crispy Soybean, a delicious snack."
Sheng one after another, couldn't stop eating, said: "The more you eat, the more delicious it is, the salty and sweet ones are delicious."
After a while, the two bowls were finished, and everyone was still unsatisfied.
Sui gave Yu a bowl of cold fruit and milk, a bowl of cassoulet, and a can of crispy soybeans, which he put in a dustpan, and Ying took them to the top of the mountain.
Afterwards, he took out the whole can of crispy soybeans and divided them into two parts, one mixed with sugar and the other mixed with salt, and asked Rao and Jiang Chu to distribute it to all the people who had fallen.
Although there are not many, each person can only get a few seeds, but he wants to give everyone a taste, so that everyone can plant together in the future.
He also left a can for the Giant Eagle Tribe. The Giant Eagle Tribe helped a lot when they collected soybeans.
As soon as he finished dividing the crispy soybeans, he saw Sheng standing on the edge of the dam and urinating in the grass below.
Before the latrine was repaired, they just found a place to defecate and pee. Anyway, there are tall grass and big trees everywhere, which naturally turn into fertilizer for the land, but this can no longer be the case.
He hurriedly said: "Second brother, the toilets are all repaired, no matter who shits or pees, you have to go to the toilet!"
