- When the people of the Feng Rong clan came to the Fire-Annoying Country to settle down, they were warmly received by the people of the Fire-Annoying Country. It was so hot that the whole country was smoking
"Hey, what is this talking about? What is temporary residence? You can live as long as you want. The friend of the Chifang wizard is our friend of the fire-hating country, and also the friend of the dog on the other side of the Chishui River. Friends of the wilderness Erbashen people"
The leader of the Yanhuo Kingdom enthusiastically handed over the meeting gift. It was a piece of high-quality coal he had dug out before, with a round luster, which was extremely rare, but Shi Jing accepted it with some trepidation. A well-known big country.
But the next moment, Shi Jing watched in a daze as the Lord of the Fire-Annoying Kingdom ate the coal in his hand.
Crunchy and crispy, but no chicken flavor.
"Hey, don't you eat it, it's a good thing, aren't you a fire witch?"
Lord Yanhuo looked at Shi Jing with some surprise.
"The fire wizards who passed by us before, all the people in the Great Southern Wilderness, or the Great Western Wilderness, have eaten this, and only the Chifang wizards and the northern wizards don't eat it. Is this not to your taste? , I even specially made soft charcoal."
Shi Jing gritted his teeth and swallowed, he was nervous, not greedy.
"No no noI, thank you"
For the sake of saving face and not wanting others to look down on him, Shi Jing ate the coal anyway, but after chewing it a couple of times, he suddenly found outit was no different from vomiting.
Coal is indeed edible, of course it refers to special circumstances, and some people like to eat coal, which is a kind of picnic, and in ancient times, some miners were buried underground, and they would rely on eating coal for a while Survive, but in general, normal people generally don't eat this thing
Shi Jing finally swallowed this thing down, and then looked at the Lord of Fire, eating charcoal is the same as eating snacks, Shi Jing didn't understand at first, but when he saw the Lord of Fire was brewing, and then spit out a mouthful of fire When she came, she was immediately relieved.
We are ordinary people, let's forget it.
What is not good to eat, there are so many edible things in the mountains and seas, even if it is boiled earth salt, it tastes better than this thing anyway.
However, the people of the Fengrong clan saw that people from the country who were tired of the fire were carrying a pickaxe and coal in their pockets. The dustpan taught by Fang's wizards.
The ventilation of the mine is to use the air pressure difference caused by the difference in the height of the wellhead, the natural wind flows 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's this?"
When he was about to go down to the mine, Shi Jing saw that Lord Yanhuo was holding a strange thing in his hand, which looked like a cage.
"This is a bonfire, and it was also told by the wizard of the Chifang family that the mine was excavated too deep, and the outside light could not penetrate, and then it would not be possible to mine. Therefore, during the mining process, lighting is needed, and I am afraid that it is called What the gas exploded and wouldn't light upand then got this for us."
This is something that Yu Zai recalled when he opened the mine some time ago.
Mining bonfires first appeared in the Ming Dynasty. No one knows how the large mines were illuminated during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods. However, the Fire Country did not have soybean oil, so they could only use animal fat and turpentine instead. The so-called bonfires , is to "put the light in the cage".
The "lamp body" is made of copper, like a braided copper mesh. In fact, it is an ordinary square copper utensil found at random, with seven or eight large holes dug in it. The grease and wick are placed inside, and there is a small lamp post. , are all simple straight up and down, and the copper lamp is placed in a cage made of bamboo, and a layer of animal skin is filled in the gap between the bamboo.
"Is this mouse skin?"
"Yeah, not long after birth, maybe three to five days, and then the skin of the little mouse that was peeled off, this kind of skin is transparent"
In order to make this lamp, all the mice's nests in the Fire-Annoying Country were emptied. In fact, it was only thought that the skin of the little mice could transmit light, but the people in the Fire-Annoying Country were very happy. Look, these mice are not only stealing food , it is still useful!
Shi Jing thought this little lamp was very beautiful.
So, do you need to catch mice to make this lamp?
She fell into deep thought, but soon realized that she didn't need to go down the mine, this was specially used by others to prevent any "explosion"
Um? explode? By the way, Akakata's wizard, he is also a fire wizard, and his fire will "explode".
The ancient portable lamp was carried forward in the fire-hating country,In fact, normal tribes only use fire or simple "panzhan" for lighting this kind of thing. The so-called "panzhan" is the kind of thing in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period that puts oil in a lamp panel and then sparks fire. It appeared in the Xia and Shang Dynasties, and in the three generations, only people in big cities could afford it.
After all, whoever has food in a hurry needs to use soybean oil to light the lamp, and in this era, soybean oil production is also very troublesome. Basically, most tribes do not know this craft, and meat oil drips out during barbecue. Then a little bit was taken by the patriarch and the wizard, so wouldn't it be convenient to directly raise the bonfire?
Just like boiling water, it is something that only wizards and patriarchs do. The general clansmen drink the water directly from Chuan Hanoi because of troubles. Of course, the water quality in ancient times was really good because there was no pollution, but you have to think clearly, you Live on the shore, and some things like schistosomiasis live in the water.
The water of the Canglang is clear, and the schistosomiasis penetrates your heart.
After observing the mining behavior of Yanhuo Country, Shi Jing also learned about the grievances between Yanhuo 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 "fighting disasters" "!"
"Woof!"
The dogs gathered together, wagging their tails behind Yan Zai, and then saw a flame rising in Yan Zai's hand, and the dogs walked over barking, eating the fire happily.
Shi Jing also started a fire when he tried.
All the scouts turned their heads, Shi Jing was a little nervous, then a dog came over, wagging its tail, this scout sniffed the flame in Shi Jing's hand
"Woo!"
The big black dog turned his head, his face full of disgust.
So, this matter has been bothering Shi Jing. When the Erbashen people came to help see him off, and everyone gathered near the three trees on the other side of the Chishui River, Shi Jing was still trying to attract at least one dog.
"Don't try."
King Pan lay under the three trees, watching Shi Jing's behavior.
"You have eaten pork, and when you know that the pork will never die, will you still eat the meat of rotten bugs?"
