This is really a coincidence...

After everyone learned new hunting tactics, the harvest was very rich for several days. Some large beasts entrenched nearby were killed one after another and became everyone's meal.

After everyone had eaten, they had time to play, and they had more thoughts. They were eager to use fire!

In the past, they had used fire to drive away animals.

It was still in the tropical rain forest at that time. Somehow, a thunder struck from the sky, and a big tree was struck on fire. No matter what kind of animal it was, it was scared to stay away from the big tree.

At that time, they had not joined forces with the orangutans to fight against the enemy, and were closely pursued by the dire cats, so they braved the flames and spent the night safely.

Then they thought of using fire to protect themselves.

But the chance of thunder striking a tree, and it had to strike near them, was not that small. It was about the same as the chance of hitting them directly, and as slim as winning a five million lottery ticket.

Two years later, the thunder did not strike, but a fire burned the sky and the earth in darkness, and thick black smoke could be seen from a distance.

They rushed over, took out the flame, and used it carefully for a few days. The effect was indeed remarkable, but that was all. They did not know how to use flame to process food and tools.

Because in their world view, flames are "contagious", and if the food is burned, they will be distressed to death.

After that, they began to make fires frequently and tried to keep the flames as long as possible. But they couldn't make fires. If they couldn't make fires, how could they find the source of fire every day?

So now, they are very interested in Wang Yang's stone fire.

In fact, before Wang Yang came, they had already observed that humans on the other side had done this, and they had learned from it. Even if the stones were ground down, they could not make fire.

So they were very interested in this, why Wang Yang's stones could make fire but theirs couldn't.

Perhaps because I have been frightened for a long time, I have developed a dependence on flames, and I especially like the light at night.

If you want to make a fire, if you don't have other tools, there is nothing more convenient and faster than flint, or even as good as a lighter.

Of course, it needs good inducement, such as hay.

The flint must be made into a sharp edge to ensure the strength of the friction before flames can be produced. However, the flint is easily disturbed by the weather. As long as it rains and the air humidity is high, it will take a long time to sharpen it before sparks can be produced.

It doesn't matter. Wang Yang mined a lot of flint and stored it in a warehouse to prevent it from getting damp.

Flame is a wonderful thing. Wang Yang was disgusted with teaching them how to use fire at first. After Xiaoxiao's incident, he understood that primitive humans had no concept of protecting the ecological environment.

It is possible to accidentally burn down the nearby area, especially such a large grassland. It will start a prairie fire with a single spark, without any ambiguity.

But then I thought about it, this group of people had used fire several times, but it didn't burn the grassland. They must also know the power of the flames, so I took two pieces of flint and gave them to them for use.

For this reason, he also specifically asked and told everyone not to light fires randomly. For more than ten days, he kept watching everyone use fires.

Facts have proved that craftsmen who have been exposed to flames are much more vigilant in their attitude towards using fire than others. They will not light torches randomly and generally do not use fire during the day, which gives Wang Yang a little peace of mind.

But just as he felt relieved, a big problem arose.

It turned out that due to more than a month of hunting, all the large beasts nearby were killed by everyone, creating an extremely safe vacuum zone.

There are no other large beasts in this area, and it has become a paradise for herbivores.

As a result, a large number of herbivores began to arrive.

The craftsmen have been out for the past few days and have found that the baiting tactic is not easy to use because no animals take the bait, and those herbivores come in groups, making it difficult for the craftsmen to hunt them down.

In addition, the herbivores are very vigilant, so they have not obtained fresh food for several days. The reason why they can maintain sufficient physical strength is the food accumulated some time ago.

Of course, Wang Yang cheated again and went to the other side to carry a few bags of food.

Originally, nothing special would happen if it continued like this.

But the situation has changed. As we all know, most predators on the grassland do not have a fixed territory at all.

They will migrate with the migration of prey, so large numbers of beasts flock here.

Unfortunately, a group of more than thirty hyenas came to this grassland. Their food goal was not to actively hunt prey, but to rob animals captured by other predators.

Originally, craftsmen would not interact with them.

But the craftsmen took the initiative to attack the group of hyenas, because this group of hyenas were not giant hyenas, but a group of hyenas about the same size as spotted hyenas. They were smaller and about the same size as ordinary dogs.

The craftsmen were tall and did not know how powerful the hyenas were. They regarded them as food and launched an attack.

In just a moment, three adults died, and only one hyena died.

Realizing the power of hyenas, the craftsmen panicked. They had never experienced such a powerful group of animals. They didn't know what to do for a while and kept retreating.

But the hyena group is a very united group, and their desire for revenge is as strong as that of wolves. They also understood that the group of craftsmen were not lethal, so they rushed to take revenge.

The tall man suddenly wised up, pulled up a pile of hay, quickly lit it, then held it with both hands and waved it left and right, stopping the hyena's attack.

The hyenas wanted to surround them to death, and they also discovered this, so they waved left and right, shaking out a lot of sparks.

It is extremely dangerous to scatter sparks on the grassland. One in a hundred sparks can ignite a huge fire.

Unfortunately, a spark ignited a small fire that did not go out.

The craftsmen didn't know whether these were available at this time. They just wanted to leave quickly and return to the clearing as early as possible to avoid being surrounded by hyenas.

After finally reaching the clearing, Wang Yang immediately attacked from a distance and finally forced the hyena group back. However, he also discovered that there was a large billowing smoke on the horizon in the distance.

Then I looked at the few remaining miscanthus grasses burned in the hands of the craftsmen, and I immediately understood what had happened.

He took the remaining sixteen craftsmen with him and rushed to put out the fire in a distant place. However, he saw that the fire had already swelled and it was too late to put it out.

At this moment, there is no other choice but to escape.

Wang Yang, who had set fire on the grassland Qingzi, knew that the flames grew at a geometric speed on this grassland. If they were not suppressed at the beginning, they could not be suppressed at all later.

There is no beginning now, let alone the future.

Under the panicked eyes of the craftsmen, Wang Yang gritted his teeth and pointed to the other side.

"Cross the river!"

The river is a natural barrier, and a large area on the other side of the river has been reclaimed by Wang Yang. Even if there are flying flames, the wheat field cannot be ignited.

Crossing the river at this time can avoid being engulfed by fire.

The craftsmen were panicked, but they could still think. They pointed at the people on the other side, expressing that this was their territory and they could not pass by.

Wang Yang ignored him at all and refused to go? Then he just waited here to be burned to death.

He crossed the river first, and the tall man and others also gritted their teeth and quickly reached the other side.

They had no choice. Since there was a fire, there was really no other way.

Wang Yang's move to lead the craftsman across the river was naturally noticed by the members of the patrol team immediately, and they rode over on alpacas.

Holding wooden spears, they surrounded the craftsmen vigilantly. The craftsmen crossed the river and did not dare to make any other moves, so they stopped by the river.

The situation here also attracted the attention of many adults, who rushed over with weapons and surrounded the craftsmen on three floors inside and three floors outside, blocking the way.

The craftsmen were frightened again. They stamped their feet, roared, and almost patted their chests like a gorilla.

The osteologist and others also immediately put down their work, came here, and respectfully asked Wang Yang what happened.

Is there any need to say this? Wang Yangnu mouthed, and everyone's eyes turned to the billowing black smoke behind, where a fire was burning.

The grassland was burning again... This was the first reaction of the people who came over. They believed without any doubt that Wang Yang did it, and they didn't know what unlucky beast had offended Wang Yang.

Everyone opened their eyes brightly, and Wang Yang understood that they would be wrong, but he did not explain that the main problem now was how to accommodate the craftsmen.

Originally, in his plan, he did not intend for the craftsmen to cross the river and interact with the tribe. Anyway, the two sides did not like each other.

He thought that if he found a copper mine, he would let the craftsmen mine it, and at the same time teach them how to make tools, so that he could live around the copper mine.

They live their own lives, the tribes live the tribes, and they happen to be the leaders, transporting goods from both sides, forming two development trajectories.

After I get rid of the bad habits of the craftsmen and narrow the differences between the two sides, it will be a good thing to let the two sides communicate and communicate again.

Who knew that an accident would happen? This is probably what people often say, life is unsatisfactory 10 times out of 10.

So now Wang Yang is asked to arrange it, which seems a bit hasty.

After thinking about it, Wang Yang began to discuss with the osteologist on the ground to see how to distribute it.

In the end, it was decided not to let the craftsmen live in the tribe for the time being, but to choose an open space outside the tribe to avoid conflicts between the two sides.

Wang Yang nodded, thinking that this was more reasonable, so he conveyed the order and informed everyone in the tribe.

Returning to the craftsmen, the craftsmen immediately asked Wang Yang, what should we do now, should we fight with them?

They have killed many wild beasts recently, and they feel that they have become stronger and their courage has grown unconsciously. Fighting and other such things are still acceptable.

But they were afraid that the other party would not fight and just kill them, which would not be fun. After all, there were only sixteen of them now, and including Wang Yang, there were only seventeen of them. Although Wang Yang was very fierce, he probably couldn't beat him.

Wang Yang shook his head and pointed to the side of the building complex, indicating that there was no need to fight and walked directly over.
