Although Litton has seen some traditional methods of firing pottery, such as Shangri-La's black pottery and Hainan's Li pottery, they all use the most primitive method, erecting wood stacks for firing, and constantly adding straw or wood chips to maintain the temperature for a long time......

Almost within a day or two, the pottery will inevitably end.

Because the firewood pile is generally erected in the open air, it is restricted by external conditions, and it is not allowed to burn pottery for a long time.

After weighing it, Litton still spent the limited human resources of the Manniu tribe to build a small-scale earthen kiln. Compared with open-air kilns, earthen kilns are not bothered by the weather, and as long as a shed is erected, it can work around the clock. Another benefit is that the kiln is much better insulated and can provide higher temperatures. And the higher the temperature, the stronger the pottery will be. In addition, the open-air kiln was not suitable for firing relatively large pottery, while the earthen kiln did not have this restriction, so Lytton chose the earthen kiln despite public opinion.

The ignition ceremony, the members of the Manniu tribe came.

The elderly, children, men, and women all gathered around the edge of the kiln, watching stacks of ceramic clay embryos being sent into the kiln, as if looking at a diorama.

The Manniu tribe did not have a set of pottery firing techniques that they were familiar with, and even in terms of pottery, they simply did not find a way to succeed.

But if it is placed in the wild world, the pottery is not the only one that can complete it.

Many tribes have the ability to burn pottery independently, but the way to burn pottery in the wilderness is very primitive open-air firing, and kilns have not appeared.

In order to open a new kiln, it must first be burned once with fire to dry the moisture in the kiln and increase the load-bearing capacity of the kiln. Litton stood at the mouth of the kiln, smelled the smell of smoke, and nodded: "Seal the mouth of the kiln, the ceremony begins." ”

"Chirp!"

An earth-firebird was ruthlessly twisted by the witch manager's neck, and the mouth of the road smacked lightly in the neck, and blood began to drip on the ground. The corners of Lyton's mouth twitched slightly, and his heart said, "It should be a chicken." ”

The unfortunate Earth Fire Bird was so burnt because of its long land, and it wore a big red feather all day long, and was recognized by the witch chief as having the ability to summon flames. The earth fire bird was stunned under the fig tree, and wailed: "When will the bird that eats the fruit have the ability to summon flames?" ”

But Mr. Wu didn't care, he had already started his day's performance.

"O god of fire from the south! Your servants pray to you with blood! ”

"O god of fire from the light! Your servant begs you with reverence! ”

……

The unrestrained dance, twisting his body into a twist-like movement, made Li Dun stunned, he couldn't imagine that Manager Wu still had this ability. Of course, no matter how crazy Mr. Wu is, it still gives people the embarrassment of having to play all the time. The reason is that a few days ago, Mr. Wu washed the oil paint off his face.

That face, there really can't be seen the slightest breath of a magic stick.

When a person who has been wrapped in disguise all day and suddenly takes off his disguise, it always gives people a strong sense of discomfort. Wu is such a person, although his wizarding career is over, the members of the tribe are still stuck in the era when he was the witch of the tribe, and it is the link between mortals and gods.

Like a raging fire, it spun in circles rapidly, and its mouth let out a hysterical roar, low but inaudible.

Puff –

Suddenly, the Wu chief fell to the ground, and the tribesmen watched the scene in horror, recalling Wu's countless failures...... Fortunately, Wu Huang stood up leisurely. With a righteous face, he announced: "Lord Vulcan has received a request from the Barbarian Bull Tribe, and his light will shine in the sky above the Barbarian Bull Tribe. ”

"Hooray!"

"Hooray!"

The cheers came just in time, and the witch manager gasped and left the place at the mouth of the kiln. Others didn't see it clearly, but Litton found a clue, this guy Wu seemed to have tripped over his own foot just now! I didn't expect to stand up and say the Vulcan message in righteous words, and even Litton had to start admiring the witch manager's ability to talk nonsense.

"Did the Vulcan really agree?"

Litton asked in a low voice, which made Chief Wu very dissatisfied: "What nonsense, what everyone needs is comfort, not the real arrival of the gods." ”

That's true, the appearance of gods is really not a good thing for mortals. Far from it, let's just say that the food offered to the gods is enough for the tribe to go bankrupt.

Litton lit a torch from the fire pit and stuffed it through the small hole in the mouth of the kiln, and the flame came out of the chimney of the clay kiln with thick smoke, and soon the fire began to grow larger, and the sparks that kept coming out of the chimney flew high.

After doing all this, the next work Lytton handed over to the Tao Girl: "Make sure that the fire burns for a day, and then you are allowed to put in fuel such as wood chips, which do not burn so quickly." Three days later, the kiln was ready to open. ”

"Yes, Chief." Tao Nu promised: "I will definitely let the fire burn the ground, and I will never let the flame go out." ”

"To ensure the temperature of the clay kiln, more importantly, the control of several tuyeres, after a certain period of time, there is no need to add too much firewood, relying on the temperature inside the clay kiln to make the pottery change."

Lytton didn't have a deep understanding of the kiln, but only reminded him of the key points that came to mind.

After the kiln is ignited, it has been kept in a burning state.

This can be seen from the chimney of the earthen kiln, with the extension of the burning time, the freshness of people also passed little by little. There won't be so many people around the kiln.

The Wild Bull tribe gradually returned to its former busyness.

Drying taro, fishing. It has become the highlight of the life of the Manniu tribe.

Lytton began to prepare his first ranged weapon, the bow.

Arrowheads are easy to do, as long as the kiln is successful, you can make a batch of pottery arrowheads, and metal arrows can not be compared, but fortunately, pottery arrows are easy to obtain, and it will definitely not be troublesome to fire.

An arm-thick sandalwood had been in his hand for days, changing a little bit every day. Such a change will not attract everyone's attention, but what makes Litton unhappy is that the speed is still too slow. He expects that it will take at least a little more than a month for the bow to be ready.

At the position of the bow handle, a circle of hemp rope has been dipped in fish glue, and when the bow is completely formed, he should lead the people to start walking out of the garrison of the Manniu tribe and towards the wider world.

And this careful thought, he didn't say anything to anyone in the tribe. Even the witch manager didn't know what was really going on in Lyton's heart.

Because the large-scale production movement of the Manniu tribe continued, it did not start the kiln and stagnated.

Digging wells is one of them.
