When the people of the Fengrong clan came to settle in the Fire-Weary Country, they were warmly received by the Fire-Weary People, it was so hot that the whole country was smoking.....

"Eh, what is this talking about, what is temporary residence, you can live as long as you want, the friends of the wizards of the Chifang clan are our friends of the Fire Disgusting Country, and they are also the friends of the dog on the other side of the Chishui, and they are also the friends of the two eight gods of the Winged Wilderness....."

The Lord of the Fire-Weary Country was very enthusiastic and handed over the greeting gift, it was a piece of fine coal that he had dug up before, with a round luster, extremely rare, and Shi Jing accepted it with some trepidation, after all, the Fire-Weary Country was a properly famous country for the Fengrong Clan.

But the next moment, Shi Jing watched dumbly as the Lord of the Fire-Disgusted Country ate the coal in his hand.

It's crunchy, but it doesn't smell like chicken.

"Eh, you don't eat it, this is a good thing, aren't you a fire witch?"

The Lord of the Fire-Disgusted Country looked at Shi Jing in some surprise.

"The fire wizards who passed by us here before, all the ones in the Southern Wilderness or the Western Wilderness have eaten this, and only the wizards of the Chifang clan don't eat it, is this piece not to your taste, I also deliberately made soft charcoal." ”

Shi Jing gritted his teeth and swallowed his saliva, it was nervous, not greedy.

"No, no, no..... I, thank you...."

For the sake of face and not wanting people to look down on him, Shi Jing still ate this piece of coal, but after chewing it twice, he suddenly found out unexpectedly... It's no different from eating and vomiting.

Coal is indeed edible, of course, referring to special circumstances, and some people like to eat coal, which is a kind of heterophilia, and in ancient times, some miners were buried in the ground, and they would also live temporarily by eating coal, but in general, normal people generally do not eat this thing....

Shi Jing finally swallowed this thing, and then looked at the Lord of the Fire Disgust Country, eating coal is the same as eating snacks, Shi Jing didn't understand it at first, but when she saw the Fire Weary Country Lord brewing for a while, and then spewing out a mouthful of fire, she was immediately relieved.

We're ordinary people, so let's forget it.

It's not good to eat something, the sea of things that can be eaten between the mountains and the sea, even if it is boiled soil and salt, it tastes a little better than this thing.

However, the people of the Fengrong clan saw that the people of the fire-weary country were carrying a pickaxe and coal in their pockets, which were black, and they were carrying something like a board with wooden bark in the back, and they said that it was a dustpan taught by the wizards of the Chifang clan.

The ventilation of the mine is to use the air pressure difference between the height of the wellhead, the natural wind flow in, the internal gas is discharged by the bamboo tube, the gas in the mine is reduced, and the lighting is much more convenient.

"What is this?"

When he was about to go down the mine, Shi Jing saw that the Lord of the Fire Weary Country was carrying a strange thing in his hand, like a cage.

"This is a bonlight, and it is also what the wizard of the Chifang clan told us, saying that the mine is mined too deeply, and the light from the outside cannot penetrate it, and it will not be able to mine at that time, so during the mining process, we need lighting, and we are afraid that the gas called what will explode, so we can't ignite it..... And then it got this for us. ”

This is something that Yu Zai recalled when he opened the mine some time ago.

Mining bonlights began to see in the Ming Dynasty, no one knows how the big mines in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period were illuminated, and there was no soybean oil in the fire-weary country, so it could only be replaced by animal fat and pine resin, and the so-called bonlights were "placed in the cage".

The "lamp body" is made of copper, like a copper mesh woven together, in fact, it is an ordinary square bronze vessel found casually, with seven or eight large holes dug on it, grease and wick are placed in it, there is a small lamp post, all of which are simple straight up and down straight appearance, and the copper lamp is placed in a cage made of bamboo, and between the gaps in the bamboo, a layer of animal skin is filled.

"This is a rat skin?"

"Yes, not long after I was born, about three or five days, and then I picked off the little mouse skin, this skin is translucent...."

In order to make this lamp, the rat nests in the fire-weary country have been emptied, in fact, Yu Zai only thinks that the skin of the little mouse can transmit light, but the people of the fire-weary country are very happy, look, these rats are still somewhat useful in addition to stealing food!

Shijing thinks this small lamp is very good-looking.

So, to make this lamp, do you need to catch mice?

She fell into deep thought, but soon thought that she didn't need to go to the mine, this was specially used by people to prevent any "explosion"...

By the way, the wizard of the Akagata clan, he is also a fire wizard, and his fire will "explode".

The ancient portable lamp was carried forward in the fire-weary country, in fact, lighting this kind of thing, normal tribes only use fire or a simple "panzhan", the so-called "panzhan" is the kind of lamp plate in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and then the fire of the thing, this thing appeared as early as the Xia Shang period, three generations, and only the characters in the big city can afford to use it.

After all, who has food burned in a panic, and wants to use soybean oil to light the lamp, and in this era, soybean oil is also very troublesome, basically most tribes don't know this craft, and the meat oil is dripped out when the meat is roasted, just a little bit, it is taken by the patriarch and the wizard, so it is inconvenient to directly raise the bonfire?

It's like boiling water, it's also something that wizards and patriarchs do, and the average clansman drinks the water directly in the river because of trouble, of course, the water quality in ancient times was really good because it wasn't polluted, but think clearly, you live on the shore, and there are things like schistosomes that live in the water.

The water of the waves is clear, and the schistosomiasis drills your heart.

After observing the mining behavior of the Fire Weary Country, Shi Jing also learned about the grievances and hatreds between the Fire Weary Country and a group of dogs on the other side of Chishui, and when he was transporting the coal mine and preparing to send it back to Nanqiu, Shi Jing even saw those "scourges"!

"Wow!"

The dogs gathered and wagged their tails behind Yu Zai, and then when they saw the flame rising in Yu Zai's hand, the dogs walked over and happily swallowed the fire and ate.

Shi Jing tentatively lit a fire as well.

The scourge turned their heads in unison, Shi Jing was a little nervous, and then a dog came over and wagged its tail, and this scourge sniffed in front of the flames in Shi Jing's hand.....

"Whew!"

The big black dog turned his head, his face full of disgust.

So, this matter has been bothering Shi Jing, and when the Twenty-Eight Gods came to help see him off, and everyone gathered near the three trees on the other side of Chishui, Shi Jing was still trying to attract at least one dog.

"Don't try. ”

Pan Wang lay under the three trees and watched Shi Jing's behavior.

"You've eaten pork and know that it won't be cut off, do you still eat rotten worm meat?"
