Chapter 12 Firing Pottery
Secondly, there is also a problem with the direction of the shot, and there is a lack of deeper consideration, if this time, the direction of the crossbow arrow is pointed at the river bank from the other side, then even if the arrow misses, at least it will not shoot directly into the river, forming a valuable crossbow arrow that has been lost forever.

This time into the prehistoric civilization, Li Hang brought a total of ten arrows.
Losing one is obviously a lot of losses, you know, these arrows are specially made, and the crossbow is not a wooden arrow that can be used by cutting a wooden arrow with wood at will, as long as the specifications are slightly deviated, then I'm sorry, the crossbow arrow will not be able to shoot, but will be stuck.
If it is applied to the critical moment of safety, then this is a big matter, so he has to use the remaining nine crossbow arrows carefully.
Then, the purpose was quite smooth, because there was a beast as a guard, but there was no danger along the way, the two dug enough silt in the river and stream, and carried it back with a large leather bag.
On this day, Li Hang didn't do anything, so he stayed in the cave to rub the stove, he used the most primitive clay boiling method he learned in the net temporarily, first using wet mud to rub out a mold of the stove.
Then, in order to be more suitable for the fire in the cave, he also deliberately rubbed an extra pipe above the stove, and finally stuffed the dead wood and firewood into the stove and roasted it violently.
Obviously, this is all the firing of the earthen method, and when the fire burns the stove made of these muds through and hardens it, then it also becomes a half-finished stove.
In addition to firing the stove, Li Hang thought about it, and used the remaining mud to pinch a pot and pan, a large clay pot, as well as several clay pots and containers and two large mud cups.
The pot is big enough, big enough to cook at least the broth or rice needed by five people at one time, this is the cooking utensils that Li Hang specially made for himself and Ah Beast, with it, you can cook whatever you want in the future.
The mud tank is much larger than the pot and basin, almost equal to the general volume of the large water tank used in rural homes, and its use is naturally used to store water.
The rainwater during this period is very sufficient, and there is no industrial pollution, so the rainwater collected at ordinary times is pure natural and clean edible water.
The function of several clay pots is to collect rainwater, and Li Hang originally wanted to burn ten or eight at a time, but the silt was not enough, so in the end he could only burn five.
Each one can hold about seven or eight litres of water, and five can fill a large tank one-third if it is full of rainwater.
Although it wasn't enough, Li Hang didn't want to risk running to the other side of the river again, although the wolves were nocturnal predators, but who knows if they would run out during the day.
Once he was hit squarely, Li Hang estimated that there was no other way than to climb the tree to deal with it, even if there were strong beast slaves as thugs, it could only be said that a wolf pack with a minimum estimate of no less than twenty in number, they were basically invincible in this forest and mountain range.
Perhaps the giant bear cave shelter that Li Hang is looking for now, the owner of the former who disappeared is estimated to have died in the mouth of this wolf pack.
Numbers, numbers, trump everything.
Individual strength is the fiercest, as long as it does not cause qualitative change, in the face of fierce and cruel wolves, everything can only be avoided.
Therefore, Li Hang had decided to avoid leaving the cave too far as possible, and the five clay pot containers were placed by him under a few ancient pine trees not far from the outside of the cave.
Then he asked the beast slave to peel some of the bark, and put the bark on one side of the pine and cypress, and the other side connected to the clay pot, and collected some dew when it was fine, and collected rainwater when it rained, and the effect should be very good.
Anyway, with the water consumption of him and the beast slave, it should be enough to deal with.
The last two large water cups are used by themselves and the beast slaves, which can be used as both food utensils and water cups, killing two birds with one stone.
After all this is done, the only thing that needs to be done is to burn, keep adding firewood, when the above few of the most primitive clay products are fired, so far, the day has passed unconsciously.
Li Hang carefully moved the stove near the entrance of the cave, and made one of the stones blocking the entrance out of the large hole at the mouth of the bowl, and then led the chimney of the stove outside.
In this way, with this smoke pipe, there is no need to worry about the fire in the cave in the future, which will cause the smoke to be discharged inside, choking people to death.
This is a more perfect improvement plan that Li Hang summed up after learning a lesson last night.
I have to say that although what he did on this day, although there was no progress in conquering this prehistoric civilization, at least Li Hang's small shelter was more perfect.
When night fell that night, Li Hang hurriedly closed the hole again, then poured clean water into the freshly fired pot, put down the jerky, dehydrated vegetables, and salt, and then Meimei cooked a pot of broth.
Although the taste is not as good as expected, but it is better than the broth is hot, and even the beast has benefited from this, and finally no longer consumes compressed military food, after all, compressed food, which is a strategic material that is easy to carry, it is best not to save it, this is the biggest food security for future travel, which is both convenient to carry and full.
Another night passed, and the wolves that belonged to the nocturnal creatures this night reappeared.
And they also tried to use their claws to pick up the stones blocking the entrance of the cave, but unfortunately, the wolves are the most numerous, they are still beasts, the stones that Li Hang used to block the entrance of the cave, basically each piece weighs dozens of kilograms, and all of them are intertwined and blocked together in layers, and they are blocked several layers in one go.
These animals wanted to open the hole, obviously thinking too much, so Li Hang didn't worry too much at all, ate enough, and then Meimei smoked a cigarette and slept well.
The situation of this night was obviously much better than the first night in a hurry, since there was no smoke to choke into the depths of the cave, and Li Hang could still move out of the sleeping place, so he slept on the edge of the stove, with the day and night fire, the room was much more ambiguous.
The most important thing is that now that there is a chimney to drain out, Li Hang now closes the cracks of the stone pile at the entrance of the cave, all of which are blocked by him with mud during the day, which is undoubtedly the best way to prevent heat loss.
I have to say that after entering this world for two days and nights, Li Hang has finally gained a firm foothold in this prehistoric world until now.
A safe shelter is his greatest guarantee, and now that he has decided that he will not go to the rescue to find the so-called primitive human race until the wolves in this forest are resolved.
