Chapter 592: The History of the Word 'Cellar'
Zhang Jingtao didn't know what Chu Nu was going to do at first, and when he hurriedly wanted to stop it, Chu Nu had already put her hand in the water.
Freshly fired limestone, commonly known as quicklime, is not considered ripe just because it was fired.
Such quicklime will burst!
Fortunately, the stone was extremely small, only the size of a broad bean, although it burst and smoked out, so frightened that Chu Nu threw the stone and hid aside, but finally the water splash that burst did not splash Chu Nu.
This situation shocked everyone, and these girls came to ask what was going on.
After listening to the explanation, everyone was much more careful.
Don't dare to touch the stones here casually.
Zhang Jingtao knew that the other stones were not dangerous, but since they were not dangerous, he would not be in a hurry to say anything.
And Ah, he didn't let go of the little stone.
She was immediately intrigued by the fact that stones could smoke and bubble.
When the small stone stopped bubbling and turned into broken white mud, Ah He boldly scooped up the white mud.
If it were Chu Nu, I was afraid that I wouldn't dare to fish it again, but Ah He was very familiar with the water, and after seeing that the white mud did not react, he thought that the white mud would not still have temperature in the water, so he was very careful to fish them up.
This is also because Ah He can use talc to write and paint, thinking that this white clay may also be used to write and paint.
It's just that after looking at the white mud in his hand, Ah Ah changed his mind and said: "It seems that this white mud has a very alkaline dryness, and it should be able to be applied to the bamboo house to prevent corrosion and insects and ants from approaching." ”
"Uh-huh, good idea." Zhang Jingtao admired.
He knew better in his heart that it was this method that allowed Gusu to have a lime powder wall.
Pink walls and tiles, originally only Gusu was like this, which is the characteristic of Gusu.
It can be seen that Gusu was the first to fire the kiln, and the application of charcoal ash, only then did Daiwa appear, which is the source of Chinese fire civilization.
The reason why lime and cement are burned is because Ah He once surrounded some limestone that was easy to knock out the shape in a circle, plastered the soil, and made a fence for a fire, so as not to burst and splash when the bamboo and wood burned.
Everyone looked closely, and some of the stones in the fire cave were cracked.
In particular, there was a layer of mud standing there in that fence, and after a little limestone, it did not fall, but only completed the shape of a round pot, and when it was burned dry, it was burned into a large pottery shard.
It can even be said that it was fired into a ceramic pot.
Ah, I took this large pottery shard again.
After looking at it for a while, he said happily: "We can fire all kinds of pots, and since this kind of clay has not broken after the high temperature, it must be burned on the fire." ”
Chu Nu also said excitedly: "Is it really possible?" ”
Ah Hao's eyes lit up and said: "It must be possible, I added water to the bamboo tube and burned it on the fire, although it was burned out, but it can also be clearly seen that the bamboo tube with water will become very resistant to burning, and after this pottery piece is added with water, it must be burned with the fire without breaking." ”
When the women heard this, they were all overjoyed, and immediately chirped and talked non-stop, they had all eaten cooked food from the roast, and knew that this pottery piece meant delicious food.
Including the seeds of those plants, it will be easier to eat in the future.
It was an important discovery.
However, this is nothing, the next moment, Ah Ah picked up a transparent stone and looked at it, undoubtedly, it was glass.
This transparent and crystalline object immediately caused another burst of excited conversation.
I have to say that in the ancient Taihu Lake area, minerals were very rich, including the surrounding areas, that Wuxi, there was originally a large tin mountain, but, for some reason, this tin mountain is completely gone, and now it can only be called Wuxi.
Otherwise, if it has nothing to do with tin, it will not take a tin character.
Quartz is not a rare thing, and for this reason, it is indeed glass.
For this reason, Ah Hello summed up the results of Ah Hello's fire again.
That was this fire, which let Ah Ah know that mud and stone can burn all kinds of different things, as long as the temperature is enough, and these different soil salinity or stone itself, if fused together, can produce different new items.
It's nothing short of creation.
And creating a flaming mountain is something that only the apes of the silk clan can do, and it is still done by the very smart Ah He, if it is replaced by apes of other races, even if they see these metals, they are afraid that they will pass by, and Gen Ben will not think so much.
Just like these silk girls other than Ah He, although they have learned to think a little, but when they see these metals, their expressions are blank at first, even if they think they are very magical, they will be excited, but Gen will not think of burning the metal themselves.
Then, in a few days, the metal will at most be regarded by them as one of the stones, and they will forget all about its origin.
But Ah Ah won't, Ah Ah immediately thought of creating!
I thought of taking notes.
After summing up, Ah also smiled and said: "This fire hole has told us so much, and in the future, we will call the act of 'telling a lot of things to others' 'sue'." ”
Zhang Jingtao immediately found that the fire kiln should be called the fire cellar.
This cellar word, composed of a hole, is a hole in the Taihu Lake area has enough ore collection, burned out a cellar of metal, for this reason, this is of course the invention of Aunta due to fire, but also by the fire hole this "hole", "tell" know that Aunta metal will be produced by high temperature and ore, but also "tell" to know Hello, the ratio of metal.
Cellar, this Chinese script, faithfully records this true history.
And the cellar is also homophonic with the "horn", roughly the shape of the cellar is said, or it is also the same as the "teaching" that countless people can't figure out, which is also to say, the teaching of words, it is the soil that is divided into subcategories, listed as words, in this way, taught the art of smelting.
I have to say that many people are also puzzled by the word 'sue'.
At this moment, I naturally know that this word is also from this, and the word "sue" in this word has the meaning of points, which means that after distinguishing the types of different soil and stones, use "mouth" to tell everyone's meaning.
What he's doing at the moment is sueing.
And the kiln of the cave is the cave thread, which is only the cave where the pottery process is made.
If you are already quite familiar with the Chinese character and Yiyi, you can roughly judge by looking at the glyph that this represents only the pottery making process.
After being excited for a while, everyone finally had to leave the cow's back cave.
After recording the classified stones and metals, Ah did not put them away, but still placed them on the ground, only blocked the cigarette mouth, and then moved the boulder, and sealed the cow's back hole again to protect the scene, so that if there is anything she doesn't understand in the future, let the hole teach her.
