The white shadow moved forward, and Bujia made a gesture and said, "It's a person." The running speed was very fast, but there was no sound at all.
Gao Ming held the bow and arrow and followed behind Bujia. The moving shadow seemed to sense the danger behind it. It turned around and quickly rolled towards the grass. Bujia quickly stepped forward but failed to catch it. Gao Ming stabilized the bow and arrow in his hand, aimed and shot directly, but the shadow was in Moving fast, still running up and down in the grass, misses the shot.
"See who it is?" Gao Ming caught up and asked.
Bujia shook his head, and said with a solemn expression, "I haven't seen it before."
"What's wrong?" knowing side.
"I'll tell everyone about this later. During this period of time, I will go out together, so be careful." Bujia put away the knife and said.
Gao Ming nodded, we will ask Landa why he is so defensive about this matter in private.
With Bai Yingying, the two dared not take their guard lightly. Gao Ming was relieved when he saw that Landa Sado was guarding the entrance of the cave safe and sound. He went up to take a look and said, "You two are sweating profusely. If you get hot, hide away." Rest under the shade of a tree for a while—"
"Sado is afraid that the fire will stop burning the mud, so I have to accompany him." Landa fanned Sado with one hand.
Gao Ming stood at the entrance of the cave, a gust of hot air rushed in, and seeing Sado's face flushed and sweating profusely, he couldn't help saying: "Sado, you and Landa go back to rest first, and Bujia and I can just watch here." Too honest, no wonder Landa was so nervous.
Sado shook his head and said, "I'm not tired, I'd better stay and help." After speaking, he looked at Landa.
"If you don't rest, I won't. I'll stay too. It's fun here." Landa said with a smile.
Gao Ming handed the bamboo tube to the two of them, and said: "Drink some water and rest first, you two go back to eat, and come to replace us after the meal."
Bujia chopped a bunch of dead branches with a knife, and Gao Ming stuffed firewood into the small hole. The fire could not be broken. He didn't know how long it would last. It was estimated to start at eight or nine in the morning, and it was almost noon now, so we had dinner It should be almost the same after burning for an hour or two before simmering, right? !
Sadoranda would go back after a while, Gao Ming stopped the two of them and told them to be careful and safe on the road, and Landa nodded. Until one or two o'clock in the afternoon, Gao Mingre's sweat beads were ticking, and he said to Bujia: "It's almost there?"
Everyone in the cave came, and when Gao Ming asked, Xiaohe said in a daze: "I, I don't know "
Bujia held Gao Ming's shoulders, and said: "It's okay if it burns out."
Gao Ming thought so, he had never fired a kiln and he didn't know if this kiln was right, even if it failed, he would try again. The mud in this forest is not good. There is no shortage of firewood, and they have no shortage of manpower. Nodding, he said, "Okay! No more firewood."
Everyone stood outside the cave and waited quietly. After the fire went out, they waited for about half an hour. Although the stone wall is made of small stones, it was smoothed with mud and subjected to high temperature. Now it is much stronger. The stone is too hot to handle. It took a long time for everyone to open it. After all, it will be burned next time. The stones need to be destroyed blindly.
As soon as the stone wall collapsed, the smoke in the cave rushed out, making people's eyes hard to open. Qi even coughed while holding her nose, and Lin Zi took a few steps back.
Gao Ming waited for the smoke to dissipate before he probed in. The entrance of the cave was small, and he bent over to go in. The heat rushed up and his face was almost burnt. The heat is coming together, and I'm waiting." After
waiting for a while, Gao Ming saw that it was almost done, and covered his mouth and face with wet leather, it was very choking inside, Bujia saw and grabbed Gao Ming's arm, and said, "I'll go in."
Gao Ming thought about it, handed the wet leather to Bujia, and said, "Be careful! Come out if it's too hot, let's not worry."
Buga went in, and a few people outside the cave looked in curiously and anxiously. The cave was short and small, and the entrance was not too big. There was still only one person going in and out on both sides of the stone wall. Gao Ming was worried, and shouted: "How about If it's hot, come out quickly, and if it's hot, you have to use a leather pad to hold it..." As
soon as the words fell, Bujia came out all dirty, with two intact dishes in his hand, Gao Ming looked happily and said, "Burn it!" Okay?!"
"Only these two are good, and the rest are bad." Buga put the saucer on the ground.
Everyone gathers together to watch.
"Brother Xiaoming's mud can really cook bowls and plates!" Xiaohe said curiously: "Let's pour water into it to see if it leaks?"
"Not now, it's easy to fry when poured in cold water. Well, we'll try it when it cools down." Gao Ming looked at Bujia and said, "The inside is all broken? Where are these two placed? Is the inside burned, cracked, or too soft to be burned?"
"These two are from the entrance of the cave. The most recent ones are all cracked inside." Buga said.
Seeing that the temperature was not high, Gao Ming went in and took a look. They were basically cracked, especially the clay pots inside. After thinking about it for a long time, Gao Ming couldn't figure out what it meant. Is that too hot inside? Not right! To say that the temperature should be higher outside, after all, the firewood has been continuously lit outside, and inside...
"I'll try it tomorrow. The result of our first burning is already very good, at least it looks good." Gao Ming said with a smile.
A bowl and a saucer on the ground were almost dry, and they were picked up like treasures and put in bamboo baskets and brought back to the cave. Gao Ming put the bowls and dishes on the table, they have been dried, the color is reddish brown, the soil in the river is reddish, it is not uncommon to see this color when it is burnt, pour water into it, it does not leak a drop, it is indeed a success , but they don't even know how to succeed, it's almost as if they've hit the right track.
"Why?" Gao Ming wondered while lying on the table. There is enough firepower outside the cave, so the temperature inside is not high? Burn more tomorrow, just put all the decorations at the entrance of the cave, and burn for a longer time, so it should be ok.
Landa brought the pottery bowl to Sado's mouth, and said, "Taste Sado and see if it tastes good?!
" The guy who wants to give Sado a try, can't tell who is better for whom.
Everyone in the cave stared at Sado. Sado was embarrassed to be stared at, and couldn't stand Landa's trickery, so he had to lower his head and take a sip of water. Landa hurriedly asked, "Is it good?"
"It's delicious!" Sado coaxed.
When Xiao He heard this, his eyes were full of curiosity. The bowl made from this mud is delicious to drink water, so the food must be delicious as well. He immediately said: "Brother Xiao Ming, let's cook it tomorrow!"
Gao Ming couldn't imagine what Xiao He thought, Immediately said: "Do you think there is honey on that bowl?! Saduo said it was delicious because he was sweet in his heart. Is it delicious for Landa?! Otherwise, you can try it and see if it tastes good?"
Saduo pointed her ears The pot was red, and everyone in the cave was focused on the bowls and saucers burned out of mud, and no one paid attention except Landa. Xiaohe took a sip with his head down while holding the big bowl, smashing his mouth, it seems that the water in the bamboo tube is similar to the usual water, um, it seems to be a little bit better...
"Let's come back tomorrow morning, do more today and put it in tomorrow Burn more at the entrance of the hole." Gao Ming looked at Bujia, and jokingly said, "Don't you try whether the taste is sweet?"
Bujia shook his head and said, "I'll go to the river to dig mud."
"Together." Gao Ming nodded, knowing that Bujia Jia had something on his mind, so he just went to ask what was going on.
The two of them carried the iron bucket to the river, and Bujia was digging the mud. Gao Ming said, "What happened to Bujia's shadow just now? Do you have something to do?"
"That man would not be afraid to fight us head-on like in the red stone field, but now he is also agile in sneaking, as if he is looking at us." Buga thought for a while, and said: "When I was a child, I was in a big hole. There are more than thirty people, and the skin is enough to eat every day. The snow season is only cold, and the hunters can always hunt food. One day, it snowed heavily, and Emu was sleeping with my arms around me. The knife came in, and the hunters went out to hunt, and there were less than ten hunters left in the cave, and the rest were children and women..."
Gao Ming had never heard Bujia mention this matter, and after seeing Bujia's painful expression The ending can also be guessed.
"There are a lot of them, and all the hunters who resisted in the cave were killed. They occupied our cave, and only the women stayed..." Buga paused, and said, "Although my mother was pregnant with Lan Da, but strong and beautiful, hugged me tightly, so I stayed. The rest of the old people and children all died. Those who went hunting came back, and there were so many people in the cave that they couldn't resist being forced to swear to stay in the cave. Gao Ming didn't understand, "
Why do you want to kill old people and children? If you are afraid of revenge, you can force you to swear?" He found that oaths seem to be quite important here.
"That snow season was very cold and difficult, children and the elderly took food, women had to give birth, and hunters could go out to hunt." Bujia said.
That is to say, the Dong tribe from outside probably feared that they would not be able to survive this snow season, so they surveyed the situation first, waited for most of the hunters to go out, occupied the cave and recruited good hunters, and killed all the old people and children who occupied the food. Gao Ming felt a shiver in his heart, he had never experienced it before, and Bujia's simple words made people feel chills, suddenly remembered the white shadow, and said immediately: "You are afraid that the white shadow today was sent by other cave clans to have a look What's the situation?"
Bujia nodded, frowning and said: "There must be other Dong people nearby, I don't know how many of them there are..."
"Don't worry, we are prepared today, go back and make more weapons, From now on, the big guys will go out together." There were only eight of them in the cave, a pregnant woman and Xiao He, a minor, so it would be really dangerous if there were twenty or thirty cave tribes coming to fight. He couldn't think of any good ideas for a while, Gao Ming was worried after being told by Bujia, and the two dug the mud and went back.
After dinner in the evening, Qi and Xiaohe cleaned up the dishes, and Bujia Gaoming whispered what happened to Bai Ying today, and Lin Zidashi immediately understood. Like Gao Ming, Landa Sado has never experienced it before. I don't know. Lin Zi said simply, with a serious expression on his face, "Don't separate these days." The
six nodded. After washing at night, Bujia checked the iron gate, That's when I went to bed. Gao Ming was baking pancakes on the bed and couldn't sleep. Seeing Bu Jia coming, he said, "I'll try to make a simple lock tonight. We will lock the door when we go out to sleep at night. We also need to prepare more swords." Fortunately, Last time I went to the Redstone Land to bring back some more iron ore. It seems that we need to prepare more weapons in the cave. In this society, not only animals are dangerous, but people are also dangerous.
"Bujia, why did you save me that day?" Gao Ming said.
Bujia hugged Gao Ming tightly in his arms, and said: "At that time, I took Landa with me, and Ah Mu died, and Landa was a child. I was afraid that I would not be able to protect Landa. You are lying on the ground, so strong, I I just want to save you, two people are better than me alone, and I can protect Landa even in the event of prey—"
"Oh! So you have such a small mind!" Gao Ming whispered.
"How did you know that you can't hunt better than Landa—" Buga's mouth slightly raised in the dark, remembering that Gao Ming, who was just rescued, was chubby and strong and couldn't climb trees.
Gao Ming smiled, "At that time, you must regret it in your heart."
Bujia shook his head, and said seriously: "Amu said not to regret the decision I made, even if the decision would kill me."
"Then why did you save Sado?" And Qi and the others?" Gao Ming got along with the two brothers when he came here, and he saw Bujia saving people a lot, first he, then Saduoqi and the others, the first impression of this world was entirely due to the two brothers, thinking that this world Everyone is kind and simple.
"There are only three of us in the cave. Even if the snow season is here, even if the food is sufficient, it's not good for three people. We need to admit more people in, so that we will be safe." Bujia stared into Gao Ming's bright eyes, and said: " More people will be recruited in the future."
"Why do you keep your oath so much?" Gao Ming was a little curious for a moment, but the Dong clansman who killed him swore an oath to forget about the past, really curious.
Bujia shook his head and said, "Eum said that you have to be obedient if you swear an oath, or you will die."
Gao Ming suddenly became curious about this world. It is obviously backward compared to prehistoric times, but superstitious methods still have some advantages It's moving forward again, I really can't tell where it is!
