The Snake Tribe added a complete large piece of pottery, and the tribesmen soon discovered its first usefulness.

At night, the thirsty tribesmen take a pottery bowl and scoop a bowl of water from a large pottery filled with water, and drink it with a coo, which is very convenient.

Prior to this, all the stone bowls and stone basins in the snake tribe together could not hold one-third of the water storage capacity of this large pottery.

Even if the tribesmen were thirsty at night, they had to endure as much as possible, and they couldn't bear it before they could drink a little water, and now they could finally drink a lot of water.

Watching the clansmen scoop water from the large pottery to drink, Su Yan shook his head helplessly, the water in the pottery is directly scooped from the river, I don't know how many bacteria are in the river water, the clansmen often drink river water and are easy to get sick, especially children with poor resistance, the big reason for the child's early death is that he has been drinking river water.

The next morning, Su Yan first took three clansmen to fire the pottery in the next kiln, and finally left one clansman to burn the fire, Su Yan took the other two clansmen to do another thing - to build a stove.

The stove is very simple, only nine adobe bricks are used, divided into three stacks according to the left, right, and the first three directions are placed in parallel or vertical, leaving an empty side for the fire, which is a simple stove, and the large pottery is placed on the stove, which is used for heating the large pottery.

The large pottery is rewashed and filled with water, and firewood and grass are added to the bottom of the large pottery to ignite the fire, and the temperature of the water in the large pottery begins to slowly increase under the burning of the flames.

Looking at the scene of boiling water, an idea suddenly popped into Su Yan's mind: a lid should be added to the large pottery to make the water boil faster.

Because the lid will not be in direct contact with the flame, you can make the lid out of wood, but it is just a stone tool in the snake tribe, and you don't know how long it will take to make a lid out of wood, so it is better to make a pottery lid directly.

As soon as they thought of it, they looked at their own fires, and the rest of the people went to the river to fetch clay.

The clay has not been retrieved yet, the water inside the large pottery has boiled, stop adding firewood and grass, wait for the flame to go out, and wait for the temperature of the large pottery and the water in the pottery to come down.

After the clay was retrieved, under Su Yan's command, it didn't take long for two round lids similar to the bottom of large pottery to be made, and there were handles made of clay on top of the lids.

In the evening, the pottery kiln opened, and the two large pottery vessels had a little crack on their bodies, both of which were defective and could only be used to hold food.

Failure is a normal thing, the complete large pottery that came out of the previous kiln was lucky, Su Yan could not guarantee that every kiln would succeed, but fortunately, even if it failed, those defective products were useful, and it was not a waste of time.

However, the pottery bowls were all intact, and Su Yan gave each of the three female clansmen who had been working with him a pottery bowl.

They carefully took the pottery bowl and held it as if it were a treasure, afraid of bumping into it.

Soon, the first month of spring is over.

According to the custom of his previous life, Su Yan divided the year into twelve months, three months in spring, three months in summer, three months in autumn, and three months in winter.

In the course of this month, the Snake Tribe's wall enhancement project has been nearly half completed, and it is expected that by the end of the second month of spring, the wall enhancement project will be almost completed, and the construction of houses will begin.

During this period, only one child under the age of one died in the snake tribe, and the hunting team reduced the frequency of hunting because of the wall enhancement project, and because the fishing team could get enough food every day, the hunting team did not need to use all their strength to catch prey every time they hunted, so that the loss of the hunting team was greatly reduced.

Only three people were injured in the hunting team in this month, only one of them was slightly more seriously injured, the wound was not infected, and it is expected to recover in half a month, and the remaining two were minor injuries, and the wounds began to heal the next day.

Su Yan has been busy firing pottery, and finally the number of intact large pottery has increased to five, and the small pottery pottery bowl has a lot more in the hands of each member of the snake tribe.

Seeing that the amount of large pottery in his hand was sufficient, before dinner that day, Su Yan asked the clansmen to carry a large pottery filled with water to the fire, and the water in the pottery was cold and white.

At this time, because it was time for dinner, the people gathered around the fire.

Wu was also invited out of the cave by Su Yan.

Su Yan pointed to the large pottery beside him and said to the tribesmen: "God told me that the river water is poisonous, once you drink the river water for a long time, people will get sick, we can use the fire to boil the water to get rid of the poisoning of the river water, drink such water, we will not get sick easily." ”

Su Yan had told Wu and the leader about this in advance, and now after Su Yan finished speaking, Wu and the leader immediately knelt on the ground, and the other clansmen also knelt on the ground.

"We obey the oracle."

For the people of the Serpent Tribe, God is right, they are to obey the oracle, and those who disobey the oracle will also be forsaken by God.

In order to allow the clansmen to drink cool and white at all times, two "buckets" will be prepared at ordinary times, once a "bucket" is cool and white, they will quickly go to boil water, and before going to bed at night, two "buckets" will be prepared in the cave.

It's not just a matter of drinking water, Su Yan has also tried boiled fish and boiled animal meat respectively, only tried once, and Su Yan temporarily gave up this cooking method, there are no spices, boiled fish and boiled animal meat are not very delicious, it is better to barbecue directly, which makes Su Yan very helpless.

"I really want to eat salt, I really want spices, I really want to eat a bowl of rice, I really want to eat a steamed bun......" In my previous life, as a citizen of a big foodie country, I had eaten countless delicacies, and the grilled fish and roasted animal meat in the primitive era of this world made Su Yan almost unbearable, and I really wanted to taste those delicacies in my previous life.

Salt, spices, grains, and probably in the woods outside the habitat of the snake tribe.

Su Yan is still a minor, coupled with the identity of the divine envoy, it is not easy to go to the small river, and the clansmen dare not let Su Yan venture into the dangerous woods at all.

Su Yan also wanted the hunting team and fishing team to look for what Su Yan needed in the woods when they went out, but then Su Yan found it difficult for him to let his people understand what he needed.

It would be very troublesome to ask the people to bring back a copy of every plant in the woods, where weeds are the majority, and there are many poisonous plants.

I can only give up for a while, and wait until I have a certain strength when I become an adult and then go out to find what I need.
