Chapter 14: Second Firing of Pottery

After discussing for a long time, I couldn't find a suitable place.

Fengyun, Wu and Lei were all a little anxious.

The longer the chipmunk is left, the more likely it will be found by others.

Bei, who had been eating snacks at the side, finally couldn't bear it anymore, raised his hand, and said, "I know a place."

"Bei, where? Is it hidden?"

Fengyun immediately turned his head and looked at Bei.

He had a vague feeling that she could solve everyone's problems.

Bei likes to drill around the tribe the most. In terms of familiarity with the surrounding areas of the tribe, there is probably no one in the whole tribe who can compare with her.

"That place is very hidden, and I only discovered it by accident."

"where is it?"

"It's... it's... I can't tell, but I can show you there."

"Is it far?"

"Not far, it's not as far from here to Wu's big house."

Feng turned his head to look at Lei, and asked, "Brother Lei, why don't we take a look first?"

"Okay. If it's appropriate, transfer the flower hoofed beast tonight."

"Wu, wait a moment, Brother Lei and I will go take a look."

"Go ahead."

Feng Yun picked up the oil lamp, thought for a while, took a water ladle, and put it on top of the oil lamp, only a little light came out, so it should not be seen by anyone.

Even so, when going out, Fengyun still handed the oil lamp into Lei's hands, and blocked all the light with his strong body, so he couldn't see even a trace of light from behind.

It was very dark outside, but Fengyun found that his eyes were not completely dark, even without the light of an oil lamp, he could vaguely see the road.

Go slowly and you shouldn't have much of a problem.

It's just that his vision is rather strange, it is gray, as if his eyes are covered with a layer of gray cloth.

He speculated that it might have something to do with him becoming a real totem warrior.

His eyesight has indeed improved to a great extent.

With the faint light from the oil lamp, he could already see the ground very clearly.

Ray's eyesight was apparently not bad either, and he walked fairly quickly without tripping.

But Bei couldn't do it, he couldn't see anything.

Lei carried her on his back and described the surrounding situation to him as he walked forward. She then used his description to determine the route and tell him how to get there.

After walking for about ten minutes, the three of Fengyun stopped.

What stood in front of them was a stone wall covered with dense vines, densely packed, like a huge quilt.

Bellenley held up the oil lamp and kept shining.

At this time, there were many big trees, vines and shrubs between them and the tribe, and they no longer had to worry about being seen by the tribe.

After searching for about five minutes, Bei suddenly raised his hand and pointed straight ahead: "This is it."

Lei put the shell down, handed the oil lamp to Fengyun, and said, "Light it up for me, I'll take a look."

Lei gently pushed aside the dense vines, and the situation inside was presented in front of the three of them under the light.

There is a crack less than five feet wide on the dark stone wall, it is dark, and it leads to nowhere.

Bei pointed to the crack and said, "Going in, there is an open space not far away, surrounded by stone walls, it should be big enough to raise flower-hoofed animals."

"Is there another channel?"

Fengyun asked the most concerned question.

"Probably not, at least I didn't find out."

"Go in and have a look."

Lei took the oil lamp from Fengyun and walked in first.

After walking about seven or eight zhang away, Fengyun found that they came to an open space.

Under the illumination of the light, it can be seen that the ground is very flat,

Surrounded by straight rock walls, it resembles a well.

What's more amazing is that at a height of about ten feet above the ground, a tree grew out of the rock wall, and the crown of the tree was so large that it almost covered the sky.

Even if someone looks down from above, it is difficult to see what is going on below.

Fengyun and Lei looked at each other, and they both saw satisfaction in each other's eyes.

"Brother Yun, brother, isn't this place nice?"

"Very good. Credit you, if there is something delicious in the future, I will be the first to treat you to it."

"Brother Yun, is it true?"

Bei grabbed Fengyun's hand, his eyes sparkled.

"Of course it's true. I never lied to you."

"Great, great..."

Lei glared at his sister: "Shh! Keep your voice down, and be careful not to attract people."

Bei immediately fell silent.

The group of three retreated, returned to Fengyun's home along the original road, and explained the situation to Wu in detail.

"Wu, what do you think of that place?"

"I think it's fine. Let's keep the flower hoofed animal there."

With Wu's affirmation, Lei and Fengyun immediately took action.

Lei carried the flower-hoofed beast on his shoulders, and Feng Yun led the way with an oil lamp.

Before coming to the stone wall, Lei ran into trouble.

The gap is too small to send the flower hoofed animal directly.

He tried to move it along, head to tail, he held its stomach with both hands underneath before sending it in.

In order to prevent accidents, Lei did not untie the rope that bound the flower hoofed beast.

Some big rocks were found to plug the crack tightly, and everyone went back to rest.

Before dawn, the door of Fengyun's room was kicked open.

Fengyun turned over and sat up immediately, took out the tinder and flint, lit the oil lamp, and found that the person who broke in was Bao.

"Uncle Bao, are you back so soon?"

A happy expression appeared on Fengyun's face.

"It's just a trivial matter, how long will it take me. Come and see the beasts I hunted, I guarantee you will be surprised."

"Yeah?"

With an oil lamp on, Feng Yun followed Bao out of the door.

Under the illumination of the light, Fengyun finally saw the brutal beast hunted by the storm.

After seeing what it looked like, he finally understood why Bao was sure he would be surprised.

The savage beast he hunted was so similar to the flower-hoofed beast.

If he hadn't seen the flower-hoofed beast being sent away with his own eyes, he might have decided that the wild beast in front of him was the flower-hoofed beast.

Bao has been paying attention to Fengyun's expression all the time, seeing his surprised expression, he smiled triumphantly: "If it wasn't for looking for the most similar one, I would have returned in the first half of the night. I picked and picked, and picked and picked. Yes. Not bad, right?"

"It's not only good, it can be confused with the real one."

"Nor did I think I'd find someone who thought that way."

"Uncle Bao, isn't this also a flower-hoofed beast?"

Fengyun still feels a little inconceivable that the wild beast and the flower-hoofed beast in front of him are so similar.

"No. It's just a striped deer. At first glance, it looks more like a flower-hoofed beast. As long as you look carefully, there are still many differences, but it's enough to fool people."

"Uncle Bao, you have worked hard. Go and rest first. Breakfast is ready, I will call you."

"When you say that, I'm really sleepy. I'll go to bed first. Boy Yun, remember, you must be the first to call me when you're done cooking."

"Uncle Bao, don't worry."

After storming into the house, Fengyun put the oil lamp aside, pulled the spotted deer towards the door, covered it with some big leaves, and went back to the room to continue sleeping.

The next day, Fengyun and others killed the spotted deer together. In order to let others know, they deliberately stretched its skin and hung it high so that people could see it from a long distance.

Fengyun and the others took the time to look at the place where the flower-hoofed beast was closed. It was indeed very ideal. As long as the gap was blocked, the flower-hoofed beast would never escape.

In order to prevent anyone from finding traces of the flower-hoofed beast from the mountain, Fengyun and the others observed the surrounding environment again.

I found that the surrounding mountains were extremely steep, almost straight up and down, relying on manpower, unless I reached a high-level totem warrior, I couldn't get close to the entrance of the cave above, and my worries were gone.

The only thing that worries Fengyun and the others now is whether the flower-hoofed beasts can be kept alive.

Most of the savage beasts are quite violent. Once trapped in the hunter's encirclement, when there is no way to escape, they will often choose to fight to the death, or even directly crash to death.

If it insists on not eating, it will starve to death.

It turns out their worries were unfounded.

Perhaps it is really like people calling it a big idiot. It does have some brain problems. After untiing the rope that bound it, it didn't react aggressively at all, and seemed very docile.

Fengyun threw some grass to it.

As soon as he retreated into the crack, it couldn't wait to eat it.

All the problems were solved, but Bao didn't train Fengyun immediately.

He told him that he needed to do some preparation and that it would take about two months, a time he could spend freely.

With pepper and pepper, Fengyun's interest in cooking hot pot was aroused again, and he decided to make good use of the free time given to him to burn pottery, at least burn out the container for hot pot.

Lei had just finished a hunt and needed a period of rest. He had nothing to do, so Fengyun asked him to help him build a pottery kiln together.

Fengyun analyzed the reasons for the failure of the last pottery firing, and he felt that one of the biggest reasons was insufficient temperature.

Using a kiln to fire pottery should be able to solve the problem of insufficient temperature.

He has never been in contact with a pottery kiln before. During the process of building the kiln, he encountered many problems, and each of them needed to be solved.

It took nearly ten days and after repeated revisions, he finally built a large kiln taller than a floor.

He put the pottery embryos in one by one, stacked them well, sealed the kiln door, and started firing.

The whole process went smoothly, although there was also a problem that the flue was blocked, it was finally resolved.

When the kiln had completely cooled down, Feng Yun smashed the kiln door open with excitement.

The people watching all around also seemed very excited, all of them stretched their necks, eager to see the result first.

This time was different from the last time, the kiln built by Fengyun was very large, many people in the tribe noticed it and came to watch the excitement.

They already knew about the opening of the kiln today.

Fengyun personally got into the kiln, handed out pieces of fired pottery, and Lei caught them and placed them on the open space in front of the kiln door.

Clay pots, pottery urns, pots, pots, bowls, plates, jugs... filled the vast open space.

People looked at these novelty gadgets that they had never seen before, pointing fingers, talking about it, their faces full of longing, eager to snatch one and take it home.

Compared with the last time, it has been much better, but Fengyun is still not satisfied, there are still too many defective products and blemishes in the pottery.

He decided to build a new, better kiln, but he had to solve a tricky problem before doing so.
