Chapter 9 Teaching how to make fish cages (Part I)
[The signing contract has been sent, and it is expected that the status can be changed next Tuesday]
"God X, please teach me how to make a fish cage. ”
"Fish cage", a word pronounced in modern Mandarin, was told by Su Yan to Wu, and in Wu's words, Su Yan seemed to feel a hint of respect, "God X" does not mean "God's messenger".
Although thinking about other things in his heart, Su Yan still replied affirmatively: "Yes." ”
Hearing Su Yan's answer, Wu grinned, this was the first time Su Yan had seen Wu's smile, and even the smile made Wu's face painted with stripes even uglier, but it also made Su Yan see that Wu was really willing to let the tribe grow and develop.
Under Wu's gaze, Su Yan came to the place where the clansmen slept, picked out the hay suitable for weaving rope from the weeds on the ground, and after selecting a handful of hay, Su Yan also showed the hay to Wu, and Wu's disciple Derpy also watched Su Yan's movements closely beside him.
After Su Yan picked out enough hay, he picked up the hay and went outside the cave.
Everyone outside the cave saw Su Yan, Wu, and Derpy walking out of the cave, and they all turned their heads, they didn't dare to look directly at Wu and Derpy, so they could only put their eyes on Su Yan.
Wu stepped forward and yelled, "He is God X, and you must honor God X." ”
The clansmen didn't understand the meaning of "God X", but from the words of the witch's roar, they could hear that "God X" was not allowed to be blasphemed, and they felt that they lowered their heads and did not dare to look directly at Su Yan anymore.
Su Yan held the hay and randomly found a place in the open space to put it down, and then pointed to the three pregnant women around who had just bulged their bellies.
"You guys, come here."
They obediently moved their bodies and came to Su Yan's side not far away.
Su Yan grabbed the hay and gave it to Wu, Derpy and the three pregnant women one by one, and grabbed some hay in his own hands.
"Look."
Su Yan chose three pieces of hay, braided them into a thin rope by tying them into braids, and then slowly lengthened the rope, put it down after reaching a certain length, and braided two thin ropes of similar length according to the way just now, and then Su Yan braided the three ropes into a slightly thicker rope in the same way as braids.
After completion, Su Yan held the rope in his hand to show the five people in front of him, and grabbed both ends of the rope with both hands and pulled it hard to both sides to show the toughness of the rope.
"This rope is needed."
Wu took the rope from Su Yan's hand, looked at it carefully, and after reading it, he passed the rope to others, and he tried to make the rope with the hay in his hand.
The other four of them took a closer look at the small piece of rope that Su Yan had braided, and then began to try to make the rope.
However, their first attempt obviously failed, Su Yan's method of making rope is very different from that of the snake tribe, the grass rope of the snake tribe is more like a lot of grass with thicker stalks directly twisted up, simple and rough, while Su Yan's rope making method is more complex and fine, requiring them to look carefully and study carefully.
Su Yan continued to weave rope with hay, this time Su Yan's movements were slower, so that the five people around him could see his movements clearly, and the five people around him stared at Su Yan's hands without blinking, and remembered Su Yan's movements carefully.
While watching, learning, and trying to weave, I didn't expect that after about ten minutes, Derpy was the first to weave a rope, and this rope was still a short distance from Su Yan's standard rope, as long as Derpy tried a few more times to weave a rope that met the standard.
Wu took Derpy's rope and looked at it, comparing it with Su Yan's rope, and then Wu patted his rough hand on Derpy's shoulder, as if to praise Derpy, and Derpy smirked.
After that, Wu learned how to weave ropes, and as for the three women, it took almost three times as long as Wu to learn how to weave ropes.
Su Yan asked the five of them to continue weaving the rope, and he left here to find the wooden sticks to make the framework of the fish cage, there were many wooden sticks scattered in the snake tribe, and after a few minutes, Su Yan came back with a few almost wooden sticks, put the wooden sticks on the ground, and continued to weave the rope with them.
About an hour later, the hunting team came back, and the harvest of the hunting team today was relatively small, only two prey, reminding that it was a smaller and larger one that resembled a honey badger, and the weight was not expected to exceed twenty kilograms, and the small one's head was smashed to pieces, and Su Yan couldn't tell what kind of animal it was, and the weight was not expected to exceed five kilograms.
If you remove the fur, bones, and other things that you can't eat, there won't be much meat left.
The leader walked through the woods and just returned to the tribe's residence when he saw the scene in front of him, he had the impression that Wu rarely stayed outside, but today he saw Wu and Wu disciples surrounding a child and didn't know what to do, the leader hurriedly walked over.
"Wu."
Wu stopped the movement in his hand, pointed at Su Yan and said seriously to the leader: "He is God X, God X brings us the treasure 'fish cage' given by God, and we can catch more fish with the 'fish cage'." ”
Hearing Wu's words, the leader's eyes suddenly widened, and there was a hint of respect in his gaze towards Su Yan.
"God X"
"Hmm." Su Yan nodded lightly at the leader, and then continued to weave straw ropes, five people weave straw ropes, plus Su Yan has become proficient, it is expected that enough straw ropes will be woven before dark today.
In addition, Su Yan can almost determine that "God X" means "God Messenger", and it should be a good thing to have an identity that can be respected by Wu and the leader, at least he will no longer treat himself as a child, and hopes to give himself more food when distributing food.
Wu led the leader into the cave, and when he saw the fish cage containing a dead fish on the ground in front of the totem pole, the leader couldn't help but kneel on the ground.
Hunting and fishing are the two most important food sources of the snake tribe, hunting is the tradition of the snake tribe, animal meat is better than fish meat, eating animal meat can also make the tribe stronger, in the process of hunting can exercise the skills of the tribesmen, and win the battle between tribes and tribes, so even if people die while hunting every year, the snake tribe still does not give up hunting.
Fishing tests the most eyesight and hand speed, and can not improve the fighting skills of the clansmen too much, but fishing is also very important, the snake tribe is not able to hunt prey every day, fishing is a very good supplement, will not let the tribesmen because the hunting team did not hunt enough prey and starvation, at this time full is the most important.
And the responsibility of the leader is to lead the people to survive in this world and continue to grow and develop.
