Chapter 9: A Piece of Trouble
Shiba Inu, who is obedient as soon as he raises it, has the name of the firewood circle because he often helps Ah Yu to pick up firewood.
Later, in order to hunt, Ah He also specially made a small hanging bag-like straw bag for the tribesmen to put hunting stones, however, the straw bag was not strong enough and could be easily broken, in fact, it could only be used for some fur, spare rope, stone knives, grass chips for toileting, and herbs for healing.
Ah, he thought of the rattan skins that had been hanging outside.
It's just that when I went to get those rattan skins, those rattan skins turned into a lot of wisps of fiber filaments in the wind and rain.
Ah wanted to throw them into the mud and let them rot, but unexpectedly, after taking the fiber filaments, to her surprise, she found that they were very tough, and they were very slippery and comfortable when brushing her delicate arms, and the spear grass was not as good as it would be.
It's just that because it's not rotted completely enough, there are still some uncomfortable places when the whole filament hangs on the arm.
But there is no doubt that this can be changed.
"Huh?" Ah Ah was surprised again, so he asked, "Fuxi, where did you get these barks?" β
"We've taken some long grass, and it's supposed to be the tough long grass, not the bark." Fu Xi said.
"Let's go fetch some more grass." Ahh said.
"Take us, ahu." A child's round black eyes in the cave are all expectations, that is, he wants to go out and play.
"Okay." Ah Ah pinched the child's chubby face.
Suddenly, the children in the cave were going to go.
The ape-men guarding the cave were so alarmed that they could only divide half of them to protect the children.
And they went out into the long meadow in high spirits.
With straw sandals, it's much more comfortable to travel.
And, along the way, with a strong ape-man with a branch shield to protect it, it was very safe, only a child had a spider web stuck to his head, and he screamed so uncomfortable, which was a small episode.
And if such a thing were to be replaced by another ape, it would be ignored in the past.
Ah Hey is different, after she saw the spider web, she was surprised, Chanjuan Daxian didn't do it, she wanted to be a Pansi Daxian, and said: "It seems that you can weave according to the spider web." β
Fu Xi also has a lot of weaving experience, and praised: "Yes, you can weave a cloth with a large mesh in two or two knots, such a cloth can be used, and it saves materials, which is very suitable for those tough filaments that are dried after rotting." β
Ah Yu nodded, but the two of them didn't know that it was not a piece of cloth that was made up like that.
Other ape-men would never learn to weave from cobwebs.
Since cobwebs are not a solid thing in the eyes of apes, then no one will try to imitate them.
Only strong silk is reminiscent of weaving.
When all the children arrived at the meadow, everyone immediately collected them.
A child asked Ah, "What is the name of these long grasses?" β
Ah heard the rubbing sound of the children in the grass, so he said, "Hemp." β
After picking the hemp, Ah did not use them directly, but put them all in a large pit in a low place, which would form backwater pools in the flood famine, and they were everywhere, formed with heavy rain and disappeared with the sun.
And these days, it looks like it's going to rain heavily.
After returning to the cave, Ah He and Fu Xi rushed to remove the excess corruption from the thin hemp rope, and kneaded several filaments together to make the hemp rope.
Then he began to weave hemp nets.
It's just that after such a hemp net is weaved, the two of them find that once they put something in, it will become a net bag.
It's just that the net pocket has not yet been closed.
After using a rope to close the mesh bag, the mesh bag can be easily opened or tightened, which is very useful.
Ah He was immediately happy, because such a hemp rope mesh bag is very strong, if it is broken, it can also be repaired, or directly strengthen the bottom, which is very practical.
Enough to give the people more stones to carry with them.
And stones, for apes, are simply strategic-level weapons.
The weather was as Ah Hao guessed, a few days later, the clouds were black, and it rained heavily in the mountain rainforest where the Silk people lived.
Zhang Jingtao was a little uneasy when he thought of this, because the location of this cave of the Silk Clan was not very good, and the mountains above looked a little scary.
However, these were only memories, and when these images flashed through his mind, they were actually extremely fast, and he naturally couldn't do anything.
The memory flashed quickly, but it was under the heavy rain, lightning and thunder, and there were countless waterholes outside the cave.
Naturally, the hemp grass was soaked in the water.
The continuity of such rainstorms is not long, there are bursts and bursts.
In the days that followed, Ah found that her practice of soaking the hemp grass in the waterhole was useful, but it didn't seem to be enough.
So, after she dried the hemp grass, she soaked it a second time.
After two passes, the hemp silk is really clean and tough.
Ah often took the children to pick hemp grass, until the tribesmen changed into coarse linen clothes, this kind of clothing is strong, can protect the skin of the tribesmen well, and it is warm in winter and cool in summer, and it is very comfortable to wear.
There are also hemp shoes, and the ape man who wears hemp shoes understands how comfortable his feet will be if he has shoes.
For this reason, the children were happy and called Ah Ma: Ma Ma.
In this way, in weaving and teaching other ethnic groups to weave, the silk people have been busy for a year.
All the apes could not have imagined that this weaving technique was actually created by the young Ah He, and people only called this technique: Yayi.
Among them, the same 'clothes' sound is used, and the difference between it and clothes is that this δΉ contains all the woven fabrics.
Therefore, when people in later generations went to customize machined sweaters, they still called a sweater, but many people thought it was 'shaking', because many people mistakenly thought that it was a machine that processed sweaters would shake.
As for why Ah Ah used the 'shaking' sound for the yao, Ah Ah didn't say it, and Zhang Jingtao didn't know at the moment.
For this reason, when the nearby tribes felt that the hemp cloth was very magical, the name of the hemp was also spread, and it was used on the women of their respective clans who had magical powers.
This kind of woman with magical powers is a woman who has given birth to children.
But it is to give birth to a man, and in the eyes of the ape-man, of course, is a power like the miracle of creation.
Even, this kind of name, even the foreigners who have applied the Huazhi civilization will call it so, and even, in hundreds of millions of years of text application, this name has become the instinct of children, and some babies will almost make this sound soon after birth.
Yes, instinctively.
As a result, Zhang Jingtao suddenly felt that instinct was very magical.
