Volume 1 Building the City Chapter 20 The Tenderness of the Axe
Wang Tian looked at the situation of the pottery kiln, added a fire, and then blocked part of the additive mouth with stones, and beckoned everyone to put away the tools.
Wu stepped forward and pulled Wang Tian and led everyone back to the tribe.
Along the way, Wang Tian asked the leader about the harvest of today's hunting, and the leader smiled, and his left hand clenched his fist on his chest, which seemed to be a good harvest. Wang Tian gave a thumbs up to everyone, then patted the leader's arm and said, "Amazing, but tomorrow I want to start building the wall, and I want to start making bricks", and then pointed to the location of the kiln just now and continued: "The mold for making bricks will be good tomorrow, and tomorrow the men of the whole tribe will come to make bricks and go hunting."
Both Wu and the leader agreed with Wang Tian's suggestion, in fact, in the autumn season of the autumn when the prey was abundant, no matter how much prey was hit, too much food could be left for the winter.
Food can't be stored that long, eating and drinking during the hunting harvest, and sleeping in the winter. The winter food is basically wild fruits, grass seeds and stems. This also forms a situation of fat raising in autumn and cats in winter.
There is no way to preserve food, and autumn hunting only contains some skins to protect against the cold. In bad years, almost every winter, people die of cold and hunger.
Because of the appearance of Wang Tian, the dried dried fish and smoked bacon have no problem if you want to save it until it snows before eating, and the appearance of bamboo utensils such as back baskets makes the collection of wild fruits more efficient.
In the past, no matter how much they collected, they could not get it back, and when the collection place was far away from the tribe, the women in the tribe would take back the large pieces of plant fruits and stems they had collected after they had eaten their fill, and the food of the small ones had been wiped out by other animals when they went back the next day.
After the appearance of bamboo, the tribe could make two round-trips a day, and the food in the distance, as long as it could be collected, could be brought back to the tribe. Although the daily collection of food from afar has not increased much due to population, the efficient speed has increased the number of days of food color collection.
Both the witch and the leader estimate that the amount of wild fruits and stems that can be collected this year will be more than double that of previous years.
Today, the collection team collects nearly three times as much food as before, which was not possible before. When you get faster, you can get more food from the mouths of various vegetarians and birds.
All this is because of the changes brought about by the arrival of Wang Tian, the Son of Heaven, and the leader of Wu He clearly understands this, and of course he will support Wang Tian unconditionally.
"Son of Heaven, what do you want to do? Just talk to the boss." Wu took Wang Tian's words and said.
The leader said, "Son of Heaven, it is important to be able to build a wall before the snow falls, and in the last spring and autumn snow season, wolves appeared near the tribe and took away a child who was going to the toilet outside the cave. With the protection of the fence, everyone can have peace of mind. If you have anything, you can arrange it directly, and whoever dares not to listen to me will cut him to death."
Don't be surprised that Wu He's leader can speak Mandarin so slippery, this is of course expressed by the omnipotent author after being translated by Heizi and Xiaoling and Wang Tian's brain.
"In winter, there is a shortage of food, not only to guard against wild beasts, but also to guard against the plundering of other tribes, and it is the responsibility of a few of us to protect everyone's safety, and it is our responsibility to make the tribe prosperous and grow."
After speaking, Wang Tian swept over the faces of Wu, the leader, the second brother of King Kong, and the thin head.
He felt this sentence, and in the past few days, Wang Tian really made this place his home. Although the life of the welfare institute in later generations made him feel the warmth of his relatives, he did not feel at home, and in this primitive tribe, everyone worked hard, everyone worked hard for the development of the tribe, and paid for the people of the tribe. Eating and sleeping together, although the ensemble at night can be embarrassing, it is undeniable that it is a feeling of home that he cannot experience in a welfare home.
As he spoke, he came to a tree not far from the tribe, which grew on the way back to the tribe, which made Wang Tian, an obsessive-compulsive patient, uncomfortable for a long time, and he didn't know why the people in the tribe would allow it to grow so tall. The diameter is enough to be the width of an adult's shoulders.
That's right, brother has endured you for a long time, and you said that you don't grow fruit, even if you don't grow fruit, you are still in the middle of the road. I couldn't do anything with you before, but now the Divine Weapon Treasure Axe is born to take your sacrificial axe!
Wang Tian whispered in his heart, called the second brother of King Kong and pointed to the tree, and then pointed to the axe and asked him to try whether the treasure axe was sharp.
After everyone understood the intention of the Son of Heaven, they all looked forward to gathering around. In the past, if you wanted to bring down such a large tree, you couldn't do it for half a year.
First of all, the bark had to be broken with a stone axe, and then the trunk was burned and knocked down after a few months of dead branches, but the stump still existed, and it would take another two or three days to completely uproot it and burn it.
It's so time-consuming and laborious, of course, no one cuts it down, and no primitive person has a pretentious person who will deal with a tree for obsessive-compulsive disorder that doesn't know what it is.
In fact, if the tree could speak, it would have to cry out. As the saying goes, there is no road in the world, and when there are more people walking, it becomes a road. I'm here first, okay, you're going to pass by me, but I'm getting in the way? Let's go there and reason with people!
Everything starts from satisfying one's own needs, which is the driving force for human civilization to move forward. When people felt that walking was too slow, in order to satisfy their own needs, humans invented bicycles, cars, airplanes, and even spaceships that could escape the gravitational pull of the earth.
Well, thinking too far, now it's Wang Tian who has to deal with this tree that stands in his way.
Second Brother King Kong also wanted to see if this axe made of something called metal by the Son of Heaven was good as soon as possible.
Although it didn't open the edge, it was still sharper than any axe that the second brother had ever seen, and the primitive stone axe was not incapable of sharpening the edge so sharp, but it was useless to do so, because as soon as the axe went down like this, it would immediately shatter into several pieces, and it was impossible to find it.
The second brother walked to the tree and stood up, picked up the axe and was about to smash it straight down, Wang Tian immediately stopped.
"The second brother wants to cut down diagonally, you work so hard." After Wang Tian took the axe and demonstrated to him a standard axe stroke, he handed the axe back to him.
The second brother nodded to show that he understood, but Wang Tian couldn't cry or laugh a little, you cut down like this, don't hurt yourself and others.
Second Brother King Kong stood up again, staring at the location of the trunk he was about to cut, picked up the big axe, and went down with an axe, and a third of the axe entered the trunk.
The second brother and the tribesmen present all had confused expressions. Picking up the axe again, Bang, Bang, Bang went down with a few axes, and the sawdust from the trunk flew sideways, and everyone's surprised expressions were fixed on their faces.
The second brother picked up the axe and slashed at it and couldn't stop at all, so Wang Tian hurriedly stepped forward to stop it. If you cut it down again, this tree will fall down and hurt people.
