Chapter 23: The Light of Civilization

"Fire?"

The frightened lizardmen looked at the leader, completely unintelligible about what he was talking about.

But the eyes were fixed on the pulsing red unknown.

Fire, is this what you are talking about?

Guo Sen picked up a piece of animal meat beside him that had not yet been eaten, skewered a thinner branch, and began to smoke on the branch that had been rapidly carbonized.

The fragrance is pervasive.

The roasted meat oil is constantly dripping on the charcoal, snorting loudly.

"This—This is ......"

The old lizardman smelled the smell up close, and suddenly felt an appetite again, and his saliva flowed out.

Obviously, I just ate the raw meat.

"Eat, eat?" Guo Sen tore the half-cooked piece of meat in half, and handed half to the old man lizardman.

"Huh?" The old lizardman held the piece of meat in both palms, and his triangular eyes were staring, not daring to take his mouth.

Guo Sen knew that it would not be so easy for them to accept it.

It doesn't work hard.

He threw the remaining half of the meat into his mouth.

Damn, why does this stink so much? It doesn't taste at all......

It's completely different from what I imagined!

However, for the sake of planning, he immediately pretended to be delicious, and laughed out loud to cover it up.

Seeing this, the old lizardman also trembled and tore off a piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Woo! What the hell is this ......?"

Guo Sen could hear that the other party seemed to be confused by this smell.

"Is it delicious?" Actually, he wasn't sure, but the other party seemed to like eating like this.

"Chief, what the hell is this ......?"

"Don't ask, you guys come over and try it too." Guo Sen took the trouble to sell to the hunters.

The hunters approached and ate the cooked meat, all the while exclaiming.

Guo Sen knows that the success is half the battle.

Once cooked meat is eaten, it will immediately have a strong impact on their inherent raw eating habits!

It may be resistant at first, but the more you chew it, the more you will savor the novelty of the texture.

In the end, the original bloody fresh meat will be slowly defeated by this taste.

The bacteria, viruses and parasites in the meat of the animal also disappeared under the action of this high temperature, virtually eliminating the chance of the birth of diseases.

Of course, cooked meat is also better digested than raw meat and requires less chewing time.

This frees up time and can be done quite a bit.

As for the rise of half-cooked beef, sashimi, and raw seafood on the earth, it was only after the era of high technology and development.

Nowadays, science can know the deformation temperature of proteins, microbial toxins, and the inactivation temperature of parasites, and use temperature to make food tastier and healthier.

However, this is something that only modern humans at the top of the planet are qualified to think about.

For primitive people, who have poor sanitary conditions and far less physical functions than human beings, cooked meat is what they should choose.

Guo Sen wants these lizardmen to get used to eating cooked meat first.

Only in this way will they have more time and a better body to develop the tribe and grow it stronger.

"But, Chief, it's ...... that the prey has shrunk so much after this fire" The old lizardman had another problem at this time, and the people around him nodded their heads.

"I'll just ask you, is it delicious?"

Guo Sen stood in front of him and asked.

"It's delicious."

"That's it, if you want to eat more, go hunt more prey. I decided that from this point on, and in the future, we can only use cooked meat made by fire! ”

After Guo Sen said this, he looked at everyone.

Silent.

They most likely don't know what "cooked meat" means, but Guo Sen has time to instill the term into their souls.

Soon, the second batch of meat was also roasted, and Guo Sen distributed it to everyone in the tribe.

Let them remember the smell and forget the fishy smell of fresh flesh mixed in.

Sure enough, after a while, Guo Sen received a satisfactory reply, and almost everyone was somewhat addicted to cooked meat.

At the same time, the lizardmen of the tribe had to put in more effort and hunt more beasts if they wanted to eat the cooked meat again.

The backward productive forces cannot meet the growing needs.

"Chief, but if we eat this 'cooked meat' as you say, we'll have to hunt more prey. But there aren't so many capable hunters in the tribe......" The old lizardman immediately expressed his concern.

"As for that......"

Guo Sen's mind moved!

Countless pale green rubble flew out from the depths of the nearby earth and landed beside him, followed by exclamations and cries from all the lizardmen.

In their eyes, this is a completely horrible and strange thing.

As long as it is an intelligent being, when faced with something unexplainable, the first reaction is fear.

Guo Sen also understood this, and he began to pretend to be a ghost.

Only in this way can the ignorant primitive man be convinced.

"Empty Tower! Kongte! Empty Nichiva! This is a divine stone given to us by God! Guo Sen raised his hands to the sky, looked up at the top, and did a good job.

"God, Godstone?" Everyone relieved themselves a little, and almost spoke in unison.

This is not a divine stone, but malachite, Guo Sen used to be an ore fan, and after playing for a while, he knew what these were for.

Raw material for copper.

"Empty Tower! Kongte! Empty class wow! ”

Guo Sen was talking nonsense, and while using his mind, the two-meter-high pile of stones instantly turned into green powder!

The people of the tribe can only hear the sound of cattle criticism now.

"Get me more hay and sticks! The oracle said that this is the necessary work to make weapons! ”

Guo Sen immediately gave a new order.

The lizard people didn't know the relationship between the divine stone and the dry grass branches, and after Guo Sen pretended to be a god and played tricks, they were so bluffed that they had to believe it even if they didn't believe it.

When they went to get fuel, Guo Sen was not idle, and used his hard and powerful claws to dig a round pit of nearly twenty centimeters in the dry ground. I looked at the thick branch next to it, found a straight root, and with a thought, I pulled out the central part of it and made it into a cylinder.

At this time, a considerable part of the branches on the side of the magma block were also carbonized.

"Chief, give you these hay ......" The lizardmen's subordinates put down the hay and wood, and looked at Guo Sen with extremely adoring eyes.

"Everything is ready." Guo Sen muttered quietly, put a handful of hay into the pit, added a lot of small sticks, and lit them with the fire drawn from the lava.

Smoke rose and small fires lit.

Guo Sen took the sticks that had been crisped into charcoal and put them in the fire. Then, he took some malachite scraps in his hand and put them in the pit, and covered them with a layer of charcoal.

After the flames were covered, the white smoke gradually thickened.

The woodpole that had been plucked out of the heart before now came in handy.

Before he could insert it into the pit, he sent a lizardman to fetch some wet mud and a large chunk of grass from the river.

The wooden pipe was inserted into the pit, and Guo Sen grabbed the ground to cover it, and quickly blocked all the gas outlets with wet mud.

He was about to blow into the woodpipes.

But what I didn't expect was that something suddenly went wrong with this step.

Guo Sen forgot that the one who wanted to blow on the woodwinds now was a humanoid with a lizard head.

The long, large mouth seemed to make it difficult to aim it at the mouth of the woodpipe.

"Hey, come here and try it!" Guo Sen beckoned a hunter and ordered him to come over immediately.

"Chief, what am I going to do?"

"Blow, won't you?"

"I see."

The hunter seems to be a little devastated, what the hell is going on! Labor and management's mouth is not shorter than yours, and it is also okay to be okay with this?

Guo Sen didn't care about that, his eyes widened, and the guy obediently blew the woodpipe.

Blowing air into it must be continuous, and Guo Sen called all the remaining hunters over to blow air in turn for safety.

The rest of the lizards stared wide-eyed, not knowing what had happened to the leader.

Blowing into the pit? Isn't it crazy?

Do you want to overthrow him?

After a while.

Guo Sen felt that it was almost.

"Come on, get me plenty of water!"

The bewildered lizards obediently used baskets made of ropes to fetch water.

Guo Sen looked at it and couldn't help laughing.

The rope basket is empty, can you do it?

Still, he lifted the covered layer of turf and let the lizardmen take turns watering it.

The white smoke choked everyone and everyone coughed.

Everyone gradually developed a common consciousness: this leader is crazy, and if he can't make anything of it, he will be overthrown immediately.

The smoke gradually dissipated, Guo Sen took the spear and stabbed it out, and a ochre-yellow shining thing appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

That's the copper he wants!
