88_88001 Even if he feels awkward, Lin Qingqing has to go out. Today is a big day for pottery burning, and she can't help but be there. What's more, without her in command, whether this kiln can be fired can be carried out in accordance with the lì is not a matter of words!

The spring cold is precipitous, and Lin Qingqing put on a big hat before going out. Fortunately, there was a hood on it, and after Lin Qingqing put it on, it covered most of his face. This made her heart feel a little better.

The kiln was built to the south of the village, near the river. It was the address chosen by Ling himself, saying that it was far away from the mountains and forests and was relatively safe. After all, it was the first time to fire a kiln, and none of them had any experience. What if something happens? It's close to the river, and there are no people there, and there are no trees, so it's a bit of a problem, and it's easy to evacuate.

Ling built the clay kiln into the form of an earthen stove in the north. The top is sealed and there is an opening in the front to facilitate the insertion of the clay embryo. Below is the fire opening, and when the time comes, the charcoal is piled up underneath and burned.

Lin Qingqing raised his hand and touched the opening in front of him, and said curiously: "There is no door, how can it be sealed when the time comes?" ”

Ling chuckled, pointed to a few piles of wet mud next to him and said, "When you put all the clay embryos in, use the wet mud to build the opening." As soon as the fire burns, the water evaporates and is more reliable than anything else. When the kiln is finally opened, just break it again. ”

Lin Qingqing nodded and praised: "What a good way, husband, you are very smart." ”

After everything was ready, everyone carefully put the dried pottery embryos into it one by one, arranged them neatly, and then sealed the inlet with wet mud under Ling's command.

The charcoal that had been burned a few days ago was also piled aside, and there were a lot of wooden forks and shovels, which were used to send charcoal to the fire. Next to him, there are more than a dozen sturdy men with naked and naked upper bodies. Pottery firing is an individual work, which takes a long time. Someone has to watch all the time, you have to add charcoal to the fire, you have to keep the temperature high. If it really takes a few days and a few nights, these men are afraid that they will not be able to survive at all.

Shi magnificently waved his hand and said, "It's okay!" What we have is that we are all well-known and capable men in the village. One group of people keeps watch for one day, and then another group is replaced. "As long as it's firing pottery. What's the point of suffering a little? Besides. What could be harder than hunting in the mountains?

Lin Qingqing saw the disapproval in Shi's eyes, and didn't say anything. only instructed: "It's too tiring to watch the kiln, these people have to eat well and eat well these days." There is also light salt water. It must not be broken. "In a high temperature environment, sweating too much, if you can't replenish water in time, I'm afraid it will hurt these people's vitality.

Wood nodded. Ying said: "Don't worry, I have this matter." I'll come and watch anytime. "He understands medicine. Even if there is something wrong with everyone, he can also find out in time.

As soon as the qiē was ready, a man went up to the fire mouth and stuffed hay branches into the fire and lit it. Then he added charcoal to it. The length of the wooden fork is also sufficient, which can ensure that the man who adds to the fire will not be burned by the heat.

Lin Qingqing looked at it for a while, and then put his mind at ease. Look at the situation at hand. Everyone was well prepared, and there were no major mistakes. That's it. She was a little more sure that she had successfully fired the pottery.

After the fire became more and more intense, Lin Qingqing retreated as soon as he did it. The man who added to the fire had sweat on his head, and Lin Qingqing asked loudly, "Is it okay?" Can you stand it? "This is just the beginning, and when it comes to the most critical time, when you have to keep the temperature high, that's the real suffering.

The men sent a shovel of charcoal into the fire opening, and took the opportunity to turn their heads and shout to Lin Qingqing: "Wise man, don't worry, we can stand it." ”

Shi pulled Lin Qingqing to the side and asked in a low voice, "Qingqing, you tell me the truth, how sure are you?" Can this pottery really be made? "Don't put in so much effort, the result is useless.

Lin Qingqing glanced at him and snorted, "I'll tell you the truth, I don't have a point." This is also my first time firing pottery, whether it can succeed or not depends on the will of God. You ask me, who do I ask to go?! "Made, it's all this anxious! If he hadn't tangled up a large group of people guarding their doors early in the morning, would she have been able to look so big!

Between them, the grudge is great, and it must not be forgiven!

After finishing speaking, Lin Qingqing walked to the side of the wooden pier and sat down, reached out to take the jerky handed over by the woman next to him, and chewed it slowly. When she first came here, she couldn't bite into the local specialty - jerky meat. Unexpectedly, after three times of hair and growth, her teeth and mouth were better.

If your teeth are better, you will be able to eat more. Lin Qingqing also discovered at this time that this jerky was quite chewy. It's pretty good to nibble on a piece when you're idle.

Ling had been staring at the earthen kiln all the time, and he didn't dare to relax for a moment. This is the first wonderful appearance of his daughter-in-law, and there must be no problems. The work of the guards was too tiring for Lin Qingqing to do, so he had to play in person.

Anyway, this trick of burning pottery, Lin Qingqing told her own man everything she knew.

After the middle of the day, the fire also reached its first high temperature. And the man who is responsible for adding fire to the fire has long since lost his spirit at the beginning. Looking at the sweaty head and the animal skin skirt dripping down, it was like a pickle that had been drained.

Lin Qingqing looked at the sky and said to Shi, "Where is the other batch of people you prepared?" Call someone over and get ready to play. "The batch of good things I said before is not realistic at all, and I have to eat, drink, and Lazar. This work has to be done in shifts according to meals.

Shi nodded, dragged a man casually, commanded a few words loudly, and continued to stare at the earthen kiln. He had already thought about it, and in the past few days, he would be like Ling, always guarding here. Not only to not have to travel, but also to be able to learn the techniques of this kiln.

Although Lin Qingqing is a wise man in their village, he still has to learn this technique by himself to feel more at ease.

Before the shift workers came, the food deliverers came first. It's all a big pot of broth cooked by the women themselves, and the pieces of meat in it are fat and greasy, oily, and when you go down with a spoonful, there is not much soup, but the meat is full.

Shi nodded with satisfaction, "Yes, that's it." As he spoke, he threw a smug look at Lin Qingqing. How's that, our village is interesting enough, right?

Lin Qingqing narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, "Well, it's not bad, it's up to half of my clan's level." "Show off what. Mushroom cool hometown is not rare and fat, okay?!

You know, rich places are rare and lean; Only in poor places do you need fat to add oil and water.

Shi choked and turned his head angrily. This woman, even if she has made a great contribution to the village, he still can't like her completely!

Ling glanced at this side expressionlessly, and beckoned to the man who added to the fire. shouted, "Dinner is coming." Come and rest. ”

The man turned his head to look at Ling and shouted, "Village Chief, you and the wise man should eat first." The shift brother hasn't come yet. Let's wait. "The wise man said that the most important thing in this kiln is the temperature, and it must not be lowered. At this time, I was too tired to do it. But the shift changers didn't come, so they couldn't rest. You can't just get a bite of food. It's a delay in getting down to business!

Ling waved his hand and said, "It's okay, you all come here, Shi and I will take a moment first." "Finished. So he took Stone by the arm and walked forward. The scorching heat wave came to his face all at once, and his burning face stabbed for a while.

Shi was shocked, "So hot?!" No wonder only the Tao people have pottery. Pottery is so tiring. It's really not something that ordinary people can bear. ”

Ling didn't speak, only silently took the wooden fork from the man's hand. Then he began to send charcoal to the fire crater. He felt that something must have gone wrong. Perhaps, he should find a chance to visit the Tao people. There must be room for improvement in this earthen kiln.

As soon as Ling Heshi and the others left the earthen kiln, they ran a few steps wildly and rushed towards the river to the south. Before Lin Qingqing could react, he saw a flower in front of him, and then there were a few "plops", and several men entered the water.

Lin Qingqing was stunned, and hurriedly ordered the people next to him: "Pull them up quickly, you can't just get into the water, you will get sick." "In a long-term high temperature environment, you can't use cold water to cool down at all. One cold and one hot, it is easy to collapse the body.

When the person next to him heard this, he hurriedly ran over and fished the person out of the water. Several men choked on water in the river, and at this time, the flush on their faces was still there, the temperature on the surface of their bodies had dropped, and the human spirit was even more depressed.

When Lin Qingqing saw it, the worry in his eyes was even worse. These people don't know what the situation is, so they have to find Mu to show them.

After feeding people light salt water, Lin Qingqing allowed a few people to eat.

There are also requirements for eating: first, drink soup first, and then eat meat; Second, chew slowly.

The men all looked at Lin Qingqing sadly, and the grievances in their eyes were self-evident. It's just a matter of drinking the soup first, how can you still take your time? It's only enjoyable to eat meat and drink soup in a big gulp, chew slowly, women are not so grinding!

But no matter how dissatisfied you are, you can't go against the will of the wise man. It's not that Lin Qingqing has such a majesty in a short period of time, but that there are two men with big shoulders and thick waists standing behind everyone! What does that crackling stick in your hand mean? Do you want to be beaten if you don't obey?

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the weather became dark.

Someone had already lit a few bonfires nearby, and clay pots were set up on them, and the thick broth was constantly tumbling in the pots, and the charming aroma was shuttling through everyone's nostrils. Lin Qingqing had been here for a day, and he was already exhausted. At this time, the smell of meat couldn't arouse her at all.

Ling looked at her girl worriedly, kissed her slightly red little face, and said in a low voice, "Qingqing, you go back and rest first." I'm here, I'm here to watch, and I won't go on a business trip. ”

Lin Qingqing rubbed his face in Ling's big palm and muttered in a low voice, "I'm not leaving, I'm here to accompany you." I'm also the protagonist of the kiln, but I didn't play a big role. But it's also important to look good and feel at ease. ”

This is the truth, Lin Qingqing's role here is a mascot. You don't have to do anything, you can put it there, and you can give confidence to everyone. After all, only she "knows" how to fire pottery!

Ling bent down, touched Lin Qingqing's forehead, rubbed it gently, and said, "No." It's the same when you put it at home. You're a woman, women don't have to suffer here. If anything, I'll have someone go back to you. Be obedient, hurry back and rest, otherwise what will you do tomorrow? ”

After a pause, Ling said again: "You should feel sorry for me, and go back to rest obediently." When I sleep well and feel refreshed, I will be able to take over my shift tomorrow. Then I can go home and rest for a while......"

When Lin Qingqing heard it, it was also the same reason. Coupled with the fact that she has been sitting here for a day, she really can't hold on. He nodded and responded, "Okay, I'll go back and rest, and I'll take over early tomorrow morning." ”

After thinking about it, he was still reluctant to keep his man for another night after a day, Lin Qingqing advised: "Don't wait stupidly." You can rest for a while when you're fine, or even if you sleep. Anyway, the shift in charge of adding fire has been arranged, so you don't have to worry about it......"

Ling chuckled a few times, gently pinched Lin Qingqing's cheek, and kissed her delicate cheek again, before saying, "Okay, hurry up and go home." ”

Lin Qingqing didn't sleep well all night, and went to pick up Ling's class early the next day, and this kiln burned three days and three nights. On the third day, it was time for the final step when the pottery was to be completed.

There are no other requirements for this step, that is, the temperature must go up, and it must reach the peak.

Lin Qingqing is not worried about this. She used charcoal, and vaguely remembered that in ancient China, charcoal was used to burn porcelain, and she used pottery here, and the grade was downgraded. So the temperature, there will be no problem.

What she worries about is the endurance of the earthen kiln. After such a long period of burning, the whole kiln was red and bright, and there was a faint glow of fire. Lin Qingqing was very worried, maybe the earthen kiln would burst at some point!

At that time, not to mention the destruction of pottery, there was a possibility of casualties. You must know that at such high temperatures, once the earthen kiln explodes, it is no less powerful than a bomb. When the time comes, debris will fly out, and I don't know how many people will be injured.

After telling Ling about his worries, he pondered for a while and said, "Then evacuate the crowd first, and leave here for irrelevant people, just in case." ”

When Shi heard this, he couldn't help asking, "Can't you add fire to the fire slowly?" We watched carefully, and if there was a precursor to an explosion, we stopped and the people ran out first. ”

Lin Qingqing shook his head, "No, you can't slow down the speed of adding fire." The temperature must be kept constant at this time. After a pause, Lin Qingqing pointed to the fire and said to the stone, "Look there, the flames are all blue, or there is no color, which means that the temperature has reached a certain height." This is the most critical time, whether it can be achieved depends on the present, and there can be no changes at all. ”

Shi's face changed, what if he hurt someone?! (To be continued).
