Yao Xiaoqing suddenly had a sense of crisis. I thought: I have to step up my practice to have the ability to protect myself, and I have to make weapons, store food, and build houses and walls as soon as possible, so that I won't be driven straight in.

She wants her people to live a life of half-ploughing and half-hunting, no longer relying on hunting, risking her life to grab land with others, and being robbed by others. It's easier said than done to start from scratch.

Seeing Yao Xiaoqing falling into deep thought, Shan Amu said to her, "Xiaoqing, Eminem went to plant millet and soybeans. ”

Yao Xiaoqing looked up and saw the seeds in Shan Amu's hand: one was millet and the other was soybeans, each with half a catty, looking at the seeds.

No wonder the yield of millet and soybeans grown in the tribe is so low, and it would be nice if such seeds could grow.

Yao Xiaoqing called out to Shan Eminem and hung the bow on the stake.

He picked out some straw and full seeds from the seeds, put them in the palm of his hand, and said to her: "Eminem, the seeds should be picked out, leaving the full seeds, and every time they are planted, they must be exposed to the sun, and there will be a good harvest after planting." ”

Shan Amu looked at the straw in her hand a little distressed, and hesitated for a moment, "Xiaoqing, did the gods tell you to do this?" ”

Yao Xiaoqing nodded without hesitation, "Yes, the gods told me that grain has to be planted like this to be harvested." ”

Hearing that it was the gods who told Yao Xiaoqing, Shan Amu nodded reassuringly, "Okay, I'll go get a piece of skin and come out to dry the seeds." ”

Yao Xiaoqing decided to wait and go down the mountain to see how Uncle Shui and Uncle Worm dug the ground and weeded.

Now let's go around and find out where there is clay, dig some and come back to build a stove to make a clay pot.

Yao Xiaoqing went around to the back mountain, found clay on the hillside, and as soon as he returned to the cave, he saw Yaohu and Dashi coming back with crutches and carrying a large piece of wood five or six meters long.

The two put the wood on the platform, Yao Hu looked up and saw Yao Xiaoqing's bow and arrow hanging on the stake, stepped forward and took it in his hand, and fiddled with it excitedly, "Xiaoqing, where did this come from?" ”

"It's called a bow, and I made it." Yao Xiaoqing looked at him and said.

Shan threw down a few flints and walked up to Yaohu, looking at the bow in his hand excitedly, "Chief, the giant bear tribe used this thing to stab me." ”

"Yes, last time You took such a weapon, not as good as Xiaoqing." Yaohu turned his head to look at Yao Xiaoqing, and asked excitedly, "Xiaoqing, how do you use the bow?" ”

Yao Xiaoqing took a wooden arrow, took the bow, posed and said to Yao Hu: "Put the arrow on the bowstring, aim it at the target, and it will hit the target." After saying that, he drew his bow and shot arrows, and the wooden arrows flew out and shot at small trees.

Yaohu took the bow in her hand, "I'll try it." ”

"Okay." Yao Xiaoqing took a wooden arrow to him and corrected his posture.

Yaohu drew his bow and arrows with great momentum, and the wooden arrow flew out and shot at another tree.

Yaohu looked at the wooden arrow stuck in the trunk of the tree and shook his head in frustration, "I didn't shoot." ”

Yama and Oishi also rushed to try once, but they didn't hit the target.

Yao Xiaoqing looked at the depressed looks of several people, and said with a smile: "I'll find a big tree later, draw a few circles for you, and you can shoot the target after practicing hard for a few days." ”

"Okay." Yaohu pointed to a big tree in the east, "Xiaoqing, you just draw circles on it." Father went to chop some bamboo and came back, you taught us to make a few more bows, and let them practice together. ”

Yao Xiaoqing smiled and nodded, "Okay, Hua said that I saw the feces left by the wild boar by the river, do you want to dig a trap?" ”

Yaohu nodded and said, "Go dig the trap first, and then chop the bamboo to make a bow." ”

The mountain called the flowers together, and everyone walked down the mountain, Yao Xiaoqing saw that Shui Bo and Worm Bo were busy all morning, and they came out in two minutes.

The stone knife dug up a shallow layer of soil on the ground, and it couldn't meet the requirements of the next planting at all, so the stone axe of the two was broken.

Hua led several people to the place where wild boar droppings were found.

After Yaohu and Shan looked at it, they nodded and said, "That's right, it's the feces of wild boars." ”

The two of them found a good position and began to dig a pit to make a trap, and the sappers shoveled to dig the trap, which was not a little faster.

The two of them dug separately and dug a large pit that was an adult height. Yao Xiaoqing asked them to stick a dozen sharpened wooden sticks at the bottom of the pit, spread a layer on top of the trap with branches, and cover it with weeds.

I went to the bamboo forest and cut down a dozen bamboos and a bundle of bamboos for bows, and carried and dragged them back to the cave.

Back in the cave, Yun Emu had already cooked duck eggs and a pot of wild vegetables.

Yao Xiaoqing felt that the most uncomfortable thing was eating, and she felt a little unable to swallow.

Seeing how they ate with relish, he forced himself to eat two duck eggs and drink a bowl of wild vegetable soup, barely filling his stomach.

When Yaohu finished drinking their wild vegetable soup, Yao Xiaoqing stopped them and examined their wounds.

When he opened the bandage and saw that the wound had healed, he was a little surprised and sighed: This repair ability is simply wonderful.

After removing the bandage and washing it back, Yaohu stopped her, "Xiaoqing, teach Father to make bows and arrows." ”

Yao Xiaoqing nodded in response, and after making a bow and wooden arrows for them to see, he carried a shovel and a basket on his back, and went to dig clay with flowers.

Shoveling away the upper layer of clay to excavate, the two ran back and forth several times, dug up a pile of clay and poured it on the platform at the entrance of the cave.

I used a shovel to dig out the soil, poured two pots of water into it, took off my stinking leather shoes, and stood in the mound and stepped on it. Yaya woke up and saw Yao Xiaoqing stepping on the soil, thinking that she was playing a game, and also took off her little leather shoes and went in and pulled Yao Xiaoqing to step on it.

After stepping on the clay until it was stuck to his feet, he went down the hill to find a stone slab, and carried it back to the cave with a somewhat round stone, and placed it beside the fire.

He went out and shoveled a piece of clay and carried it back to the cave, put the slate on top of the stone, grabbed some charcoal ash on the slate, took out a piece of mud and slapped it at the bottom of the clay pot; Then, the mud is rolled out into many long strips, and the kneaded mud strips are coiled around the chassis, while pressing the mud strips with your fingers, the mud strips are circled high until they are coiled into the shape of a clay pot.

Scooped a bowl of water, dipped some water in the bowl with his hand, and turned the slate to smooth the inside and outside of the earthen pot.

After the jar is ready, rub two strips of mud and stick it to the jar, make a good handle, and a not very beautiful earthen jar is ready.

After the jar was ready, I measured the mouth of the jar with a piece of bamboo, and visually measured it to 30 centimeters, and began to make the lid after measuring the size.

Hua stood there and watched for a while, then went to find the slate and the stone and came back, and picked up the clay pot in the same way as Yao Xiaoqing.

Yao Xiaoqing found that Hua's hands-on ability was much stronger than hers, and the clay pot she pinched out for the first time was more round and beautiful than her pinching.

The two of them pinched out three clay pots silently, one bigger than the other.

Yao Xiaoqing carried the earthen pot to the corner of the hole, went out and carried a bundle of firewood into it, put the thin branches on top of the earthen pot, and then covered the coarse firewood and set fire to the earthen pot.

Hua looked at it for a while and said to Yao Xiaoqing: "Xiaoqing, can that thing be cooked and eaten like a stone pot?" ”

"Yes." Yao Xiaoqing added in his heart: If the firing is successful, you can do it.

"Flowers, you guard, call me when the fire stops."

"Okay." The flower honestly stayed there.
