After eating and drinking, Zheng Guo made a torch, took the meteorite with him, and walked towards the crocodile man's camp. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Soon to the lake.

The carcass of the giant beast remained in place, half mutilated.

Last night's bonfire was still there, and only ashes remained.

But there was no trace of the crocodile man.

I guess I'm still resting in the lake.

Zheng Guo picked up a stone and threw it into the lake.

Poof!

Then he stood by the lake and waited.

After a while, a pair of pale yellow eyes appeared in the middle of the lake, staring straight at him.

This should be the chief.

It was the first to swim towards the shore.

Then, one by one, the rest of the crocodile men emerged from the water and swam after the leader toward the shore.

When they reached the shore, they immediately landed on all fours, their heads lowered deeply, and their mouths touched the ground.

Zheng Guo remembers that they had done the same when they first met, and it seemed that this was a way for them to express their awe.

The audience was delighted.

"This pomp and circumstance deserves to be the king of crocodiles!"

"I don't know if there will be legends about Guoye in the crocodile civilization in the future."

"Prometheus Zheng. 乀 (ˉεˉ乀)"

……

Zheng Guo found a crispy bark tree nearby, peeled off a large piece of bark, and crushed it as a firestarter.

I found some more firewood.

Then go back to the lake and stick a torch on the ground beside it.

The crocodiles had straightened up and sat in rows, their eyes staring straight at the torches.

Clearly, the flames of the fire have developed a great attraction for them.

That's certainly a good thing.

If they have no interest in flames, it will be much more difficult to "teach fire".

Interest can compensate for the lack of intelligence to a certain extent.

Zheng Guo did not plan to use torches to make a fire this time, but to use the impact of meteorite to make a fire.

It is hoped that the crocodile people will understand the connection between the sparks and flames produced by the impact, and then learn to make their own fires.

Zheng Guo put the ignition on the ground, holding the meteorite in one hand and a hard stone in the other, and the two collided with each other diagonally.

Syllable!

A large amount of sparks splashed out from the friction between the two.

Because this time it was just a test and did not aim at the ignition, the spark flew to the ground and disappeared in an instant.

It would be nice to be able to rub out Mars.

Zheng Guo adjusted his direction, approached the ignition closer, and hit it again.

Syllable!

This time, all the sparks fell on the ignition, and the extremely high temperature immediately ignited the fibers, and soon developed from sporadic to flames.

The crocodiles who were watching not far away let out an exclamation cry, and hula la-la under the leadership of the leader gathered around, staring at the red flower that suddenly bloomed on the ground.

Of course, no one was stupid enough to touch it with their hands this time.

Seeing them surrounding, Zheng Guo put another piece of bark on the ground, and under their noses, meteorite and stone collided, and the spark ignited the bark again.

The crocodile man in the audience made a strange sound again.

The leader lay directly on the ground, leaning in front of the flames, his slender eyes staring at it as if to see something.

Zheng Guo didn't bother them either, and let them observe.

A minute later, the two flames were extinguished.

Next, teach the crocodile man to do so.

Zheng Guo placed the igniter on the ground in front of the leader, and then stuffed the meteorite and stone into its claws.

The crocodile man's hands are divided into three toes, all of which are capable of bending, which makes them easy to grasp tools.

The audience stopped barrage and looked at the crocodile leader expectantly.

However, the result disappointed Zheng Guo and the audience.

The leader just looked at the thing in his hand stupidly, but didn't make any move.

It seems that although the leader is the largest of the crocodile people, his IQ is not much higher than that of his companions.

"Alas, white is excited."

"Sure enough, it's still too reluctant."

"No way, not enough IQ."

"I guess it's going to take a long time to evolve."

"But they're already able to use simple tools, like the crocodile man who cut food with stones last night, and it's not far from using fire."

"Maybe this leader has well-developed limbs and a simple mind, why don't you try someone else?"

……

Zheng Guo didn't give up immediately, grabbed the leader's two paws, and taught it hand in hand.

Approaching the ignition, he staggered the tool in his hand at an angle and struck.

Syllable!

With a crisp sound, sparks splashed onto the ignition.

The flames burst into flames.

The leader shouted, probably too excited, and directly threw the fire-making tool in his hand out, staring at the flames intently.

Zheng Guo was speechless, so he had to go and pick up the stone himself and return to the original place.

The crocodile people were just staring at the flames, not caring how the flames came from.

Is it really not up to intelligence yet?

If it's an intelligence problem, then Zheng Guo can't help it. It was impossible to teach them how to use fire in just a few days, unless he used some method to instantly boost the crocodile people's intelligence.

"Give up, these crocodile people have obviously not evolved to the point where they can use fire."

"Don't waste time."

"Guo Ye looks so frustrated......"

……

Zheng Guo was slightly disappointed.

If you can teach them how to use fire, it will be very exciting, and it will be very rewarding just thinking about it.

But the reality is very skinny, and the difficulty is higher than imagined.

God is not so easy to be.

At this moment, a small crocodile man squeezed in from behind.

It didn't stare at the flames like the other crocodile people, but at the tool in Zheng Guo's hand.

It's on the small side, and even among the little crocodiles, it's probably the skinniest.

Its limbs and tail are not as thick as those of its companions, and its head seems to be larger.

Even more striking is that it has no claws and only three bare toes on its hands.

Seeing it squeeze forward, the other crocodile people screamed, as if they were very dissatisfied with it.

A crocodile man grabbed it by the tail and tossed it aside, grinning at it as if to warn.

The little crocodile man got up, crouched on the ground, and looked at this side silently, but did not dare to come again.

Ostracism because of their weakness is common in animal communities.

Most individuals with such birth defects do not live long because they cannot compete with their peers.

However, Zheng Guo saw potential in it.

While its companions were observing the flames, it was the only ones looking at the tools that made the flames.

This is a qualitative difference.

Zheng Guo walked over to it, placing the firelight, meteorite, and stones in front of it, wanting to see what it could do.

The little crocodile man looked at him, then at the three things in front of him, but did not move.

The audience didn't understand Zheng Guo's actions.

"This one looks weaker, Guo Ye."

"Malnourished?"

"I don't even have claws, I guess it's a congenital disability, a genetic mutation or something."

"Don't waste any more time!"

"There's no way they're going to learn to make a fire at this stage, so accept it. ←_←”

"Guo Ye has drilled the horns of the bull. ┑(￣Д￣)┍”

"It's good to change one, why did you choose such a good thing!"

……

Half a minute passed, and the little crocodile man still just watched, not moving.

Zheng Guo frowned.

This little guy looks even more dumbfounded, could he have seen it wrong?

The criticism in the live broadcast room has become even louder.

"It's afraid it doesn't even know how to handle things."

"Don't tease, this is obviously a waste product."

"Repeat, don't waste any more time!"

"666, do you really think you are a god and want to be Prometheus? Two words for you: hehe. ”

……

Zheng Guo looked at it, and suddenly saw some kind of emotion in its eyes.

It seems to be ...... Fear.

Are you afraid to do anything because you're afraid?

Zheng Guo then pushed the three things closer in his direction.

The little crocodile man looked at him and lowered his head again.

Silent.

One second, two seconds, three seconds......

Then, it made a move that left the audience stunned.

I saw that in the camera, this congenitally disabled little crocodile man actually slowly picked up the meteorite and stone with his claws, and then made them collide violently in everyone's surprised eyes.

Syllable!
