Lifting the curtain of the door, there was already a layer of snow outside, although it was not thick, but the temperature really dropped, wrapped tightly in the animal skin on his body, Song Xuan silently went back to the house.

A few sticks of firewood were added to the fire that was about to be extinguished, and soon the house was warm again, and so many trees were cut down, and in addition to a dozen houses, a large amount of firewood was harvested.

Although these woods cannot be used for construction, they are very suitable for firewood, and after drying, there are a lot of them in each room, and the ones in Song Xuan's house are carefully selected by everyone.

Not only the length is appropriate, but also the fire is big and less smoke, very resistant to burning, although the house has left a vent, but subject to technical reasons, it is not too big, and the smoke burned out is a little less experience, which is naturally much better.

Knock knock~

"Oracle, it's time for breakfast"

After a while, Shi Meng knocked on the door frame and asked Song Xuan to go to dinner.

Although Song Xuan was not very hungry, he thought that it was noon, and there were no snacks here, so he still had to eat some.

Shi Meng outside the door was obviously caught off guard by the heavy snow, and the animal skin on his body was still the same as the one he worked yesterday, although it was convenient, it was not thick.

At this time, rubbing his hands, when he saw Song Xuan come out, he showed his signature smile again.

"Hey hey~ Divine Messenger, winter is coming"

A few months ago, the people of Teng Snake were still very afraid of winter, but now they are all smiling, and without the worry of food, the primitive society is still very relaxed.

Although there is no need to hunt in winter, there is a lot of work to be done, weapons and tools have to be remade, and the accumulated hides have to be disposed of.

The application of rope in Teng snake can be said to be quite extensive, making tools, weaving fishing nets, and even building a house can also be used.

Next year, the fishing team will definitely have to be expanded, and the demand for animal skin rope is still quite large, but although the animal skin rope is not particularly good to use, it is very troublesome to make.

It is not easy to cut animal skins to the width of your thumb, especially in this era when there are only stone tools, and the results of a skilled woman in a day are quite limited.

No matter how sharp the stone knife is, it is very difficult to cut through the flexible animal skin, but the tools of the snake are only stone and bone, so it can only make do with it.

I heard that the Black Feather tribe has a sharper and more durable stone, but this kind of thing Teng Snake obviously can't enjoy.

Seeing that everyone was really slow, Song Xuan also brought a stone knife and tried to cut it, the animal skin in the tribe had only undergone a simple treatment, although the grease on it was scraped off, it was still a little hard, Song Xuan cut it with a knife, leaving only a faint white mark.

Just a few times with force, I didn't expect the edge of the stone knife not to be crushed directly, looking at the stone knife in his hand, which was completely useless, Song Xuan was also very speechless.

At this pace, I'm afraid that the tribe will spend a lot of time on dividing animal skins, and of course, everyone generally has nothing to do in winter, so this is used as a way to pass the time.

However, Song Xuan has some other ideas, for the future Teng Snake, there is already a preliminary plan, not to mention the rest, the rice must be arranged, and the planting tools must also be prepared in advance, and it will definitely be too late to do it first.

There is also the Mandarin in the tribe that has to be improved, until now, most people only know some words that are commonly used, and it is not good to say that it is not good to say something in a hurry, so take advantage of this time to learn a little more, and it will naturally be much more convenient to communicate in the future.

It's not that Song Xuan doesn't want to learn the language here, Song Xuan also deliberately memorizes some of them, at least if he speaks slowly, he can still listen to a rough idea.

If you go deeper, there is not much need, after all, even different tribes in the same area, there are not a lot of differences in what they say, and the last time they visited the Blackwater tribe, sometimes they still have to be understood through gestures.

In this case, it is necessary for everyone to learn a mature language, which is to evolve after all, instead of evolving into ABC, Song Xuan still looks at the square words to be kind, of course, there is definitely no factor that Song Xuan does not learn bird language well!

There's still a lot to do in the tribe, and it's a waste of time to waste all of your time.

Staring at the stone knife and thinking for a moment, Song Xuan tried to put the knife on the fire and roasted it, although the stone knife of Teng Snake was rough, but the second half was still wrapped with some animal skins, Song Xuan folded two more branches and clamped it, but it was not hot.

When Song Xuan felt that the temperature was about the same, he quickly took a piece of animal skin and tried it, only to see that as soon as Song Xuan put the knife on it, a small hole appeared in the animal skin, and following Song Xuan's movements, the animal skin in his hand was quickly divided.

However, Song Xuan also found that the efficiency was good at the beginning, and it was easy to cut, but after the stone knife gradually cooled, the effect was not so good.

Even so, it is much better than raw hard grinding, and this is not so demanding on the blade, and it needs to be sharpened without a few cuts.

"Flower, come and see, how do you divide the animal skin like this?"

Seeing that this method was quite feasible, Song Xuan hurriedly beckoned a few people around him to stop what he was doing, and demonstrated it again.

"Huh! Is that okay too? ”

"It's a divine envoy, you can come up with this method!"

"In this way, it will be much faster to divide the hides in the future"

Although it has been unanimously approved by everyone, Song Xuan is still improving the method, and after the heated stone knife, he quickly cut a few knives on the animal skin, and used the high temperature at the beginning to make the seams.

The purpose of this is naturally to ensure the width of the animal skin strip, and when it is divided a little bit, the edges are not so neat.

In addition, even if the temperature of the stone knife is not high enough, it can be cut quickly with ordinary ones, and the time it takes to reheat is about the same as that of reheating.

Heating a stone knife and then cutting, you can also better control the width of the cut, even if the skin is fixed with wooden nails around it, the narrowest strip of leather cut out is two fingers wide, this width is a bit reluctant to be used to make fishing nets.

Now, if you are careful, you can even control the width to less than one finger, and this width of animal skins is the most used in the tribe.

With the new technology, the speed of cutting animal skins in the tribe has directly increased a lot, and a large amount of inventory in the cave has also been moved out by everyone to make all kinds of useful things.

In order to save firewood, everyone works in one room, and the main house in the middle is spacious enough, and these dozens of people in the tribe can also show it, which is naturally the best place.

Although it was a little dark after it was closed, it was able to light up the bonfire, and seeing that everyone was together, Song Xuan began to be a Chinese teacher.

A stone slab was found and stood on the pyre, and two sticks of charcoal were picked up from the campfire, and a small class was formed.

The main force of the classroom is naturally the children of the tribe, and compared to the adults, they do less work, especially those children under the age of five or six, who are basically fighting and fighting.

Teaching children in winter is also idle, and children are more malleable.

"Fish", Song Xuan pointed to the words on the blackboard.

"Fish, fish, fish", the little primitive people below read along three times.

Song Xuan doesn't teach too many things in a day, usually only four or five commonly used words, and then let them practice by themselves, as well as teach their parents, there are not many, and they have to read it many times in the cave, and adults don't have to learn to write, so they learn quite quickly.

The little primitive people still have to practice writing, and there is naturally no paper and pen in this era, so Song Xuan got them a few "sand tables", in fact, it is more reasonable to call the soil plate, that is, a small place surrounded by stones, and then covered with fine soil inside, and you can write directly with a small stick as a pen.

And after writing like this, you can directly smooth it out, and it's not a big deal to continue using it, but you need to add a little fine soil to it regularly, because these little primitive people always beat it with a stick as they wrote.

Children, Song Xuan understands them very well, and when he sees it, he asks them to write it a little strictly, but Shi Meng will not indulge them every time, and when he sees that they are not serious, it is just a bamboo board fried meat.

Shi Meng also learned the skill of beating the palm of the hand from Song Xuan, although Song Xuan pays attention to happy learning, but it is also based on learning, this study class has a quiz every morning, mainly the content learned the day before, and those who can't pass it will be beaten in the palm of the hand.

Song Xuan was only a little stricter in his studies, but Shi Meng was different.

If you don't write well, you can type.

Disobedient, hit.

Even if you don't eat well, you will be beaten.

A group of little primitives suffered a lot at the hands of the leader of Shi Meng, and as for Song Xuan, who was the initiator, he even laughed out loud when he saw them being beaten.
