Chapter 019. A Good Artifact for Street Fight

Ashan and Hongye went out for a walk and picked up one of them... uh... a black-skinned young man who covered in dirt and mud, at hat time, Xiao Yun who was still organizing his tribe to play games was completely daunting.

Ashan dragged a large piece of rattan and straw mat, Hongye put the black-skinned youths on the mats, and a group of snow werewolves leaned up to take a look. Dahe immediately recognized them: "This is a black panther from the cat tribe, I remember his name seems to be...Qingyan? When our tribe passed by his tribe, he gave us some fruits."

Hongye suddenly remembered and said: "Yes, it is him, no wonder I think his smell is a little bit I'm familiar."   

"I also remembered that he can climb trees and can pick the berries on the top of the tree." Oxhorn was also very strong memory as soon as it mention food.  

Black Panther? Xiao Yun touched his chin. It turned out to be the case. It's no wonder that the individual fighting strengths of the cat tribe are uneven. The size of the cats is inherently large... the black-skinned young man carried by Hongye is similar to himself, but from the more mature opponent. From the face of it, he should not belong to the cub of the cat clan, but an adult.

"The cat tribe is so far away, how did he come here?"   

"Oh, he was injured, and his stomach rotted."   

"Where is the patriarch, is the patriarch asleep?"  

Snow werewolves also have the ability to treat ordinary trauma. The patriarch who was awakened came to see the black-skinned young man, and asked people to move this black guy to the heatable bed in the house. Um, everyone remembers Xiao Yun's request, and they brought him in with the mat, lest he be dirty their heatable bed where everyone was sleeping...

Xiao Yun curiously went up to watch the patriarch how to deal with the wounds, and without a second glance, he avoided it-it was so cruel, the patriarch directly showed his claws and cut off the rotted part on the stomach. The comatose guy groaned in pain.

Cruelty is really cruelty, and this black cat was still be saved. Xiao Yun went to the bathroom to bring hot water, and after the patriarch had treated the wound, he stepped forward and wiped the black skin guy in a coma to prevent him from getting too dirty and causing a second wound infection.

Then... …   Xiao Yun discovered that this guy is not be washed white.

Several buckets of hot water have been changed, and the sludge washed off, but compared to the snow werewolf, who is at least white after washing, the skin of this guy is really black...His black is not the healthy wheat color, but is black like charcoal.

"Panther's human form has very dark skin..." Xiao Yun muttered, and found some rhubarb left over during the process of collecting wild vegetables, mashed the rhubarb slices to the affected area, and then used some cloth which got from Sal to dress the wound simply. Plantain can be eaten but rhubarb not, and the snow werewolves are not willing to collect this thing that they don't seem to be of much use. The rhubarb that Xiao Yun has on hand was left when he went to collect wild vegetables.

Rhubarb in online games is the material of hemostatic medicine. In reality, rhubarb does have the medicinal effects of purging fire, cooling blood, removing blood stasis, and detoxification. It's just that the powerful snow serewolf will not be easily injured. If they are really injured, they cannot be saved their life by rhubarb....so the herb like rhubarb is of little value to the snow werewolf.  

This guy was took the medicine, wrapped his stomach, and lay on the warm heatable bed again. The black-skinned young man who was sweating a lot of sweat gradually eased his frowning brows and fell asleep. Xiao Yun took off his dirty animal skin's shor skirt, which he didn't know how many parasites had hidden, and threw them into the stove and burned them. He looked at the shape of this man again, took out the horn knife, and helped him shave his head apart from anything else...Uh, cutting hair, this guy's hair also doesn't know how many lice are hidden in. Xiao Yun forced the tribesmen to cut off the hair and take a bath every day to wipe out the lice in the tribe. This hard work cannot be caused by this guy to restore.. .

He tossed "guests" here, and the people didn't say to stop him. Instead, they secretly ate all the beans and pine nuts he had fried while Xiao Yun was busy...The patriarch secretly took two handfuls of beans and pine nuts away.  

After Xiao Yun finished his work, he turned around, okay... all the clansmen who lay on the heatable bed and were sleeping and turned their butts at him, and the cheeks were secretly chewing in the dark...  

"...Is it really doesn't matter to eat my food infront me such frankly?" Xiao Yundan was painful.

The next day, Xiao Yun, who woke up, came to see if the guest had a fever. It was okay. These non-human physiques were super strong. The patriarch's brutal shaved rotted flesh and his roughly processed rhubarb to stop bleeding saved the person. This guy didn't have a fever, but also slept comfortably.

"This guy... Qingyan, is he going to stay in the tribe for the winter?" Xiao Yun stopped the patriarch who was about to hang out for working.  

"If we drive him away, he will die in the heavy snow." The patriarch nodded. It has to say that the simple thinking mode of the snow werewolf is quite heart-warming... They don't say that the outsiders would share their food. Xiao Yun nodded: "But...is there will be troublesome to keep him stay here? for example, is his clan will come to here to find him?"   

"If he wants to return to his clan, let him go." The patriarch said, "What's the trouble will be happen?"   

Xiao Yun said helplessly "...nothing, I think too much."   

The tribe is very busy now, the clansmen in charge of grazing in addition to the pasture cattle and sheep have to bring back fodder and patrol. The soldiers should hunt as much as possible, and let the snow werewolf cubs such as wool process more dried meat strips for storage for the winter. Feelce and othe cubs should also carry bean sprouts to ensure the daily supply of vegetables in the clan.

Xiao Yun doesn't need to be as busy and repetitive the work as Fleece and the others, but he also has his task: He plans to build another activity room with floor heating for the tribesmen to move around during the winter. The existing two mud brick houses are still used as activity spaces but a bit small.  

Floor heating is to apply the principle of heating on the floor of the whole house. This requires a lot of work on the foundation and requires floor tiles with sufficient compression and impact resistance. There are not so many mountains and rocks on the grassland for Xiao Yun to collect materials on the spot, so the method he can rely on ... is to burn bricks.

Brick-burning is a low-tech job, but even if it is low-tech, there is also a technological content in it. It's not means that the soil embryos can be used when they are burned in the cave. He doesn't take it for granted. Fortunately, Xiao Yun was in modern times on the earth is a small citizen who can get enough food and clothes all day long. During work, he could watch the live broadcast on his mobile phone to pass the time when he is idle. On that magical Tiktok app, he had seen a high school student in the northwest of China lived broadcast his native method of burning bricks from his hometown...  

The mud for burning bricks is much more exquisite than the mud for making mud bricks. After calculating the work plan in his heart, Xiao Yun led the coolies to carry out preliminary preparations:  

The first step is to dig a rectangular shallow hole on the bank of the river. Pour the deep-dug yellow clay into it, step on it once and basically crush it, pour in water to soak the soil, and leave it for about five hours.  

In the second step, pour two picks of marsh silt and the ash swept out of the stove into the mud pit, and let the tribesmen jump into the mud pit with a vigorous bouncing... uh, and mud. This stepping and mud process will be repeated about five to six times.  

Then put it to ferment again...Uh, wake up the soil, this time also takes about five hours, Xiao Yun can do other things first, such as frying a pot of beans and pine nuts to entertain the people at night...

After stepping on the mud for a long time, the two of Dahe and Qingcao held on to take a bath and they were too tired to move. Xiao Yun asked that the mud be combined more finely and delicately. This is the same as kneading dough, even an adult snow werewolf can feel tired...  

As for Oxhorn, he is still digging the foundations-a 50-square-meter large communal activity room and underfloor heating are required. The foundation is more delicate than the previous mud-brick houses, and Oxhorn has to be dugging, cutting the beams of the house, making him busy anyway.

A pot of fragrant beans and pine nuts was fried, Xiao Yun went into the house to get salt, and found that the guest on the sleeping heatable bed had been awake. He was staring at the mud-brick house with a horrified expression on his face, and touched with his hands incredulously with warm bed surface.  

"Are you awake." Xiao Yun put the pottery pot well, and eagerly stepped forward to observe, "your complexion is not bad...Is it exhausted?"   

"...Huh?" The guest didn't understand.  

"Is it just farting?"  

"Yes, I am." The guest swallowed.

"If you hurt your stomach, I remember you can eat something if you can exhaust gas." Xiao Yun nodded, uncovered the pot on the big stove and looked at it. He took a bowl and scooped up a few pieces of boiled white meat and half a bowl of soup. "No porridge, I cooked meat as a sick meal and put bean sprouts in it, it can nourish your body."  

The customer didn't dare to take the bowl, but just stared at him blankly...  

"Aren't you here to join our tribe, the clan also agrees to take you in, quickly "Eat." Xiao Yun said, "When you have finished eating, you can get up and move around. This heatable bed is generally not burned during the day. It is burned for you today and it is a bit wast the firewood."   

"You...you really smell like a snow werewolf." The guest trembling and raised his hand, "But I remember that the snow werewolf is not like you... Why are you so white?"

Xiao Yun: "..." Is it really embarrassing that the snow werewolf was dirtier than you before..

The original owner, the autistic child, didn't even deal with the tribe. The cat clan's guest did not know him. Xiao Yun called Dahe in. The spirit of the guest immediately relaxed a lot...Although Dahe was also white a lot than before, he still could recognized out of her. "Your tribe would build a house!" The relaxed cat young man was holding the broth with excitement, "There is such a good pottery bowl!"   

Dahe entered the house and naturally climbed onto the heatable bed, and found it still warm, so she called Qingcao came in. Dahe heard Qingyan's speech that Dahe propped her neck, imitating Xiao Yun's boasting virtues and showing her thumbs: "Am I amazing? Qingyan, I built this house!"   

"Huh! Huh?!" The cat clan youth almost dropped his jaw.  

"Wait a minute, I have repaired the wall, and I still paved the heatable bed surface." Qingcao is not far behind.  

"Oh oh oh~~" The young cat tribe's golden vertical pupils are almost turning into stars of worship.

"I said, can you pay attention to more important issues before you gossip..." Xiao Yun's mouth twitched, "Dahe, don't say anything else, you took the lead in eating my beans last night?"   

Dahe she immediately looked so tired that he was about to hang up, stretched her tongue out and gasped.  

Qingyan, a young man from the cat clan, realized that Xiao Yun, a cub of the snow werewolf clan, had a great right to speak, and looked over in surprise.

"I just mentioned that the my clan agreed to take you in. After all, if we ask you leave, you can't survive the winter alone. However, we take you in does not mean that you will be left unconditionally. You are a member of the cat tribe, and we have to know why you left your tribe and ran so far to come to our tribe specially be the snow is close. If you will cause trouble to our tribe, then we can't take you in here." Xiao Yun said with a serious face, the snow werewolves are very innocent that they don't have a sense of defense, and he has to shoulder the responsibility of protecting the tribe...

Not to mention the cat youth, the pretending Dahe and the really tired Qingcao all shocked by Xiao Yun's solemnity...  

"I...you guys are willing to take in even humans?" The cat youth swallowed and weakly said

"The human beings we take in will not cause any trouble to the tribe. First, he can't even hurt the cubs of the tribe. Second, there will be no humans in the grassland specifically looking for him, and there will be no disputes with the tribe." Xiao Yun squinted his eyes, "And you are different. You are the black panther clan of the cat clan. You can hurt the cubs of our clan. In the event of an attack, the adult clan may also be hurt by you; not to mention you. The tribe is not too far away from us. When your tribe comes to ask for you, if you don't have any intentions, then you have countless excuses to find trouble with our tribe."   

The young cat tribe was shocked, Dahe and Qingcao were also surprised. They could understand Xiao Yun's words, which made them very incredible... When did the simple grassland people have this mode of thinking? Does the door to the new world open a gap to them? !

"I hope the Snow Wolf Clan can take me in, and of course I will not hurt any Snow Wolf Man." The Cat Clan youth quickly said, "As for my tribe...they will definitely not come to me because I was exiled by the tribe. "  

" Huh Huh?!" Before Xiao Yun said anything, Dahe and Qingcao yelled, "How can this be, aren't you a warrior in the tribe?"

The young cat from the cat tribe showed a disappointed expression: "Our old patriarch was sick when your tribe shortly after left, Huagang wanted to be the new patriarch and started a duel with the warriors in the tribe... I disagreed with this tradition of relying on a duel to determine the patriarch, but... therefore, Huagang was exiled me after becoming the patriarch.."   

Dahe and Qingcao looked at each other and couldn't help saying: "The strongest person does not necessarily make a good patriarch. Why don't you let the elders take over?"

Xiao Yunte looked at Dahe with admiration. This guy who often shows cuteness and knows how to pretend to be tired is indeed wise in the snow werewolf.

The young cat tribe smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Since the tiger clan separated from the cat clan, my tribe has been convinced that only a strong leader can lead the tribe to survive better. But...for so many years, our cat tribe has never been better than the tauren clan where their patriarchs always are elders and the wise as the patriarchs."   

Xiao Yun heard this level, and almost understood where the hard-pressed youth was lost--the main ethnic group on the grassland was actually neither the tiger clan of King Tent, nor the richest tauren, but the cat tribe, even if it is not considered the tiger tribe who is separated from the cat tribe, the cat tribe's population accounts for more than 70% of the total population on the grassland.

It stands to reason that as the main ethnic group, the cat tribe should be the most powerful and the richest on the grasslang. However, the actual situation is... even the large cat tribes that occupy the lush and fertile grassland are not developing very well...

In term of abundance of materials, the cat clan is definitely not better than the tauren. In term of being good at war, the snow werewolves and the tiger clan rank aherd of their cat clan, let alone occupy a dominant position. The cat clan does not have much right to speak when ciscussing matters in the Tiger King's Tent .

This is a failed revolutionist~ Xiao Yun thinks this way, the young cat is finally not to much bad now. As the descendants and successors of the revolutionaries, Xiao Yun always respects those who dare to say no to the old traditions.

He didn't care if he brought a lot of mud and lices to spend him long time to take care of him in the middle of the night, nodded and said: "In this case, if you have no place to go, stay in our tribe. As long as you can work with our people, snow werewolf tribe won't let you starve."

Qing Yan, a young cat from the cat tribe, nodded quickly: "I'm very good at climbing trees, and I can always find fruit when it's not snowing."   

Except for the tauren, most of the aborigines on the grassland have been in short supply for a long time. The vitamin's sub-healthy state, Qingyan, who is good at climbing trees, is not wrong to use this as the capital to retain, but...

"If our tribe's work can be done only by being good at climbing trees, then you are thinking too simple." Xiao Yun looked at Qingyan, who was about the same size as his own, according to the standards of labor, and   

"...Huh?" Qing Yan blinked and then blinked again.

Qingyan, with strong resilience, was able to leave the heatable bed at four or five P.M. in the afternoon. Xiao Yun was estimated the time on to make bricks, who squeezed the tough muscles of this black-skinned young man, and counted him apart...

On the bank of the river, beside the mud pit where the mud was awake, Qingyan with a bewildered expression took the wooden frame blank that Xiao Yun handed him, and stared blankly at the snow wolves who were sweating and playing in the mud.  

" Don't you want to work? Why do we come here to play in the mud?" Watching Dahe work hard to push the mud into the wooden frame mold, Qingyan couldn't recover his mind.

"It's not for fun, but to make bricks. The house where you sleep and the heatable bed are covered with mud bricks." Dahe wiped her sweat and inadvertently smeared himself with mud. "This time I want to make a stronger one. For the bricks, smash and press the mud block into the wooden frame blank mold. The upper and lower sides are stained with the dry fine sand here, and the animal tendons are flattened to scrape off the excess mud, and then put on the flat ground over there to demold and dry. …It's very simple, it's not too tired, it's just a bit troublesome."   

Qingyan... although Qingyan understood, but didn't understand why they did it at all, but the few snow werewolves present were all sweating profusely. He couldn't look foolishly beside him, so he had to learn while watching and try his best to behave like others...Not to mention, his intelligence and hands-on ability are so much stronger than Oxhorn's that, so he didn't learn much time and just get started.

Making bricks is a troublesome point in the procedure. The technical content is the same level as the previous mud bricks. There are physical requirements but not a threshold. The cubs of the snow werewolves, such as wool, can be caught as coolies... This kind of frail cat clan youth can do it at a slower speed. It is easy to get tired, and the backache and the wound on the stomach hurt. After only two hours of work, he almost didn't get him down.

It was so easy to rest, but the scary snow werewolf cub (Xiao Yun) asked him to enter the small dark room (bathroom) and wash his head, hands, face and feet before allowing him to sit by the bonfire and others. The snow werewolves have dinner together...   

The snow werewolf's barbecue is cut into thin strips and grilled. It is more delicious than the meat roasted in chunks. There is also hot bean sprout soup to drink, and everyone can use beautiful pottery. Bowl, the effort of one meal made Qingyan silently improve his evaluation of the financial resources of this snow wolf tribe. He thought that the cat tribe would also be richer than the snow wolf man. Now it seems that he underestimates the snow wolf man. (Actually not).

"But... why does he use a stick to eat?" Qing Yan peeked at Xiao Yun who was eating meat with chopsticks, and was curious in his heart. "But other snow werewolves are not like this. Is this cub special? "  

He took another peek at Sal, a human sitting in the corner eating silently, Qingyan felt relieved: "This snow wolf tribe has raised this human for many years. Even humans that are easy to die can be fed by them, and they should not dislike me, right?"   

"The bean sprouts are really delicious, even better than the dishes given to the tribes by the Tauren tribe in the summer..." Quietly turning his attention to the hard-working snow werewolf girl Fleece, Qing Yan's mood is a bit complicated, "This The bean sprouts are also made by their cubs. The cubs of the snow werewolves are so powerful. No wonder they can always be so strong on the grassland..."   

After eating the meal, the snow werewolves did not return to the warm house to sleep like Qingyan thought, but... surrounded by the cub named Ayun, and kept yelling about inexplicable words like what he would win this time; Qingyan hadn't understood what these snow werewolves were excited about, so he saw... the cub Ayun smiled and brought out a pottery pot with a lid, put out a few pottery bowls, and then threw a few beans into the pottery bowl that could smell the fragrance at a distance of several meters...  

And then, Qingyan he stared at the majestic snow wolves fighting in pairs, slamming the beans in the pottery bowl with a thin wooden stick in their hands...  

"I did it, I did it! I got it!" Oxhorn raised his slightly shaking hands and staring at the small beans on the tip of the chopsticks, shouting in surprise.  

"Eat quickly, it doesn't count if you don't put it in your mouth." Ashan said nervously.  

"No, I can't move, my arm will fall when I bend it, I tried it with a stone during the day." Oxhorn burst into tears as they spoke.

Ashan: "... you will sill be failling ."

"Oh, it's a pity, the beans in the horns have fallen, and this challenge is unsuccessful." Xiao Yun clapped his hands, "Hey, Oxhorn, I said it was unsuccessful. it doesn't count if you drop it on the ground and pick it up and eat it. Dahe hasn't picked it up anyway. You still have a chance of winning if you try harder now."   

"How can I lose to Oxhorn!" Dahe pokes the beans in the bowl harder.  

"Relax, Dahe, you won't be able to clamp it with too much force, just like I told you, gently clamp, and use the chopsticks as your nails!" Qingcao also became nervous.  

"I picked it up again!" Oxhorns shouted.  

"It counts as long as you eat it in your mouth, be careful, and slowly turn your wrist...Oh, it's dropped again!" Xiao Yun patted his thigh.  

On the other side, the patriarch who was also catching and killing him anxiously shouted: "Pick it slowly, Fleece!"   

"I have eaten two beans, Patriarch, this time I will win~"Fleece laughed.

Qingyan watched for a long time before he realized that the snow werewolves were playing a small game of eating beans with wooden sticks. He was stunned and then quite dumbfounded, and couldn't help being a little bit envious. The tribe he was born into was a big tribe in the cat tribe and lived in clusters. There are more than 300 people in the tribe. The bonfire that burns when the dinner is distributed every night can be seen far away from the tribe. The prosperity of the people and the abundant food are the symbol of the prosperity of the tribe. Qingyan has been proud of this for decades. .  

The population of this snow werewolf tribe is only one-tenth that of his tribe. The bonfire during dinner cannot even illuminate the entire tribe camp, but... the lively atmosphere of this snow wolf tribe is also unmatched by his tribe. The people here don't seem to care about the heavy pressure of survival. Before the heavy snow comes, every tribe is working hard to prepare supplies for the winter, these snow wolves can still relax and play this meaningless little game. Children are not afraid of the coming long winter.

Thinking about it, Qing Yan couldn't help but cast his sights on the warm house where he had slept the night. That kind of house was really amazing. The night he spent in it didn't feel any chill at all, and the biting night breeze on the grassland simply penetrated. I can't penetrate the thick walls, even if it is injured or weak, the warm "heatable bed" can keep the body warm.

"It is possible to build such a house, so they will not be afraid of snow." Qingyan sighed secretly, "If my clan can also have such a house... Then this winter, no one will be frozen to death. No one will wake up after falling asleep..." He subconsciously turned his eyes to the river and the grass, "Will they be willing to teach my people to build a house? If the cat clan gave them a lot of prey and fur, they might Willing..."   

"What the hell I was thinking, I was obviously exiled." After realizing that all he thought was useless, Qing Yan smiled silently again. Not to mention asking the snow werewolf to instruct the tribe to build a house. He can't go back at all.... The exiled people are not allowed to return to the tribe. This is a customary rule on the grassland. If he runs back, he will even be killed. There is nothing to complain about killing.  

On the second night taken in by the Snow Werewolf tribe, Qingyan lay on the warm heatable bed like the Snow Werewolf, but... he used to sleep in a cold tent, but this time he was sleepless.  

The following morning, the snow werewolf tribe began to be busy from the early morning just like the cat tribe. Everyone has a scope of work that must be responsible, and no one can eat idle meals. Qingyan got up and took a bowl of bean sprout broth that was heated on the kang-tou stove like the other snow werewolves. After drinking it, he consciously came to one of the little "leaders" who arranged work in the tribe, the cub Ayun.

In the cat tribe, the cubs are usually only responsible for the simplest repetitive tasks. In the snow werewolf tribe, it is different. In addition to the daily work, the wool and others are also responsible for sprouts and food preparation. The cub Ayun is even more involved. Lead the tribe to do things when he is not an adult. This is the custom of the Snow Werewolf. Although Qingyan, as the detainee, found it strange, he would not question it.

"Today, we are going to build a brick kiln."   

The cub Ayun did not see the other place and assigned Qingyan to his labor force. After the people gathered, he brought everyone to the earth kiln and pointed to the small dirt road that Qingyan could not recognize. "This old kiln doesn't need to be dismantled. We can continue to use it when it's free. We will build a large earthen kiln next to it to burn bricks and cover it in this position. Oxhorn, Qingyan and I will move the bricks. Dahe and Qingcao you two go to pick the marsh silt. Once you pick it, put it in this position, and then mix the soil and cement. The method is the same as before when we built houses and kilns. "  

It is not a big problem to burn bricks if we can burn out ceramics ( The temperature required to burn the red brick is lower than that of the pottery, which is more than 900~1100 degrees), but the original earthen kiln is not large enough-all the floors are covered with fired bricks. Compared with the demand, the original kiln is too small.

Moving bricks means moving back the mud bricks made by the patriarch and the horns that were dried on the river bank. This work is pure hard work, and Qingyan is easy to understand; when it comes to building the bricks, Qingyan has his claws... Looking at the cubs Ayun, Qingcao, and Dahe in a daze, they took the wooden planks to scoop up the mud and put the mud bricks up one by one. In his opinion, this behavior is almost the same as reading a heavenly book...  

"Qingyan is not only Look, and learn how to lay bricks." The cub Ayun waved to him, "Look, it's like this, with soil and cement on both sides, one by one, and the top one and the bottom one should be staggered. It needs to be built into a circle and has an arc... The hands of the cat clan should be more skillful than the snow werewolf, and you should learn it."  

Qingyan is indeed more skillful than the snow werewolf. Xiao Yun will teach him it... after all, he is a cat clan who is good at climbing trees. Well! The difference from the silly big snow werewolf clan is quite obvious.  

After two circles of bricks, Qingyan suddenly reacted: "Wait, is the house built like this? Use this mud brick and this soil cement to build a circle of enclosures?"

"Yes, but the earthen kiln is to be built in the shape of a hill-shaped or a mountain-shaped, so this surface must be covered with an inward arc, and the top must be sealed. If you build a house, you must build the wall in a straight line. Take the animal tendon and fall the stone down, and the animal tendon is close to the wall. Such a straight wall is not easy to collapse." The cub Ayun nodded naturally, "Looking back, we are also planning to build a larger mobile room. Then you can see the difference."   

"..." Qing Yan grew his mouth silently, wait a minute, isn't it important knowledge of snow werewolf to build a house? He didn't exchange the fur of the prey, so it was really good to teach him this way. ?

Xiao Yun can't take care of the world view of saving the cat tribe youth, he has a lot of headaches. In brick kilns that are much larger than pottery earthen kilns, the combustion is carried out internally, which means that even if a closed earthen hill-shaped cannot be repaired, a T-shaped fire path must be left inside—combustion is carried out in the kiln. This is the difference between the brick kiln he plans to repair and the old small kiln.

Inside the brick kiln, two long T-shaped fire channels should be built and the middle short fire channel is burned in the middle fire channel, and then the long two ends will transmit heat to the entire brick kiln where the bricks are placed for heating; when placing the bricks, the middle fire channel need to set aside and leave a pattern with a narrow top and a wide bottom, so that the fuel can be burned. The kiln wall should be evenly set aside as a chimney. The technical content of the brick kiln is much higher than that of the clay kiln. Being able to burn usable bricks, Xiao Yun didn't know how many brain cells died.

The two-meter-high, three-meter-wide dome brick kiln was built. Not to mention the three person, Qingcao, Dahe, Qingyan, who were as assistants, and Xiao Yun was so tired too. so they were sitting on the ground... If he doesn't consume half a catty of meat, he can't restore his energy and his brain power.

The brick kiln cannot be used immediately after it is covered. The bricks made the day before can take a few more days to burn in the kiln. Then, Xiao Yun started to prepare fuel for the bricks—he had no place to find coal, and the kiln which needs burn long time must store more burn-resistant fuel. Pine branches rich in pine oil pine resin are undoubtedly the best firewood.

So he called on Oxhorn who dug the foundation hardly, and led a bunch of coolies to the primitive jungle... No need to chop trees, just pick up the pine branches that have fallen naturally for many years, and tie them up in bundles and drag them back to the tribe.

   At the outskirts of the jungle, Qingyan suddenly became active, jumping up and down...getting two bags of pine cones for Xiao Yun. No way, it's the weather, there can be no wild fruits on the branches.

   After running six or seven times in two days, they dragged back the hill-like pine branches. Xiao Yun checked the dry bricks and decided... to start burning the bricks.

Putting the bricks in the brick kiln is also a technical job. The only Qingcao and Qingyan can get started with after learning. As for Dahe, who should be very smart... she still has to spend more time to understand why the bricks are placed over fire. It's not a good thing to say that being smart is sometimes not a good thing. Qingcao knows how to do it directly, and she still loves to think about it.

Uh... Actually, Xiao Yun himself dare not say that the way he chose to place the bricks is correct, because the local method of burning bricks, how to place the bricks, and leaving gaps in the fire are all technical tasks that pay attention to professional quality. If the ancients love to use blue bricks, there is also a steam-cooling operation... But anyway, as long as he can burn red bricks, everything will be fine, and there are enough bricks to fill into the brick kiln. As long as half of the finished product is burned, it is more than enough...

The firepower of the brick kiln can be visually observed when the bricks are installed and fired. The firepower of the brick kiln can be observed directly: the lower part of the reserved T-shaped fire channel is left empty. After the fuel is sent in and the combustion starts, the placed bricks are reserved You can also see if the flame burns all over the brick kiln and the firepower is uneven. After all, brick burning does not pursue high temperature and emphasizes airtightness like pottery. Experienced masters can observe whether the temperature of burning bricks is sufficient with the naked eye. of.

Seeing the red burning landscape in the cave from the fire path and the vent on the wall of the kiln, Xiao Yun gave up, everyone else was amazed...This is also the shocking point of the old-fashioned brick burning technology, even if it is well-informed When modern people see the burning situation in this ancient brick kiln, they have to take out their phones to take a picture...

   For the big pot of rice that night, the tribesmen don't burn the bonfire and eat it around the brick kiln... One is to save fuel, and the other is to be rare. Anyway, the heat of the brick kiln will overflow, and sitting here is also warm.

The fire in the brick kiln continued to burn all night. During this process, Xiao Yun almost kept his steps, carefully observing the shape of the bricks that can be seen at the fire crossing. He has no experience in making bricks, so he can only observe everything by himself, anyway. He doesn't know any water-cooling and steam cooling techniques, nor does he need to burn blue bricks with appreciation value, as long as he can make sure that the bricks can be burned and they can be used without deformation.

The ancients burned bricks at low temperature (800 degrees or below) for three days. Xiao Yun felt that his brick kiln couldn't be lower than 900 degrees. (Put the boring mud tires to burn, and the thinner mud tires can be used as a reference) After burning for a whole day and night, Xiao Yun stopped feeding fuel and let the brick kiln cool down naturally.

   It was another half-day waiting. After touching the bricks with hands, the kiln work was carried out. The so-called "kung fu has prepared yet" can be achieved depends on God. At this point, Xiao Yun doesn't talk about being nervous or nervous anymore. He goes in and moves the bricks very normally... the bricks moved out still have residual temperature, the whole is red, and the skin is red,rough, hand-pressed, with a certain degree of compactness-it is truly a standard modern street fighting artifact, an invincible brick!
