The Yu family's situation is not an isolated case, as long as the fire bed connected to this cave is heating up at this moment.
At first, the temperature was not very high, so everyone still felt very cold.
But as a steady stream of heat was transported along the pipes, the temperature of the heated kang became higher and higher, and it actually felt hot. This was the first time in all the cold winters that I had felt this way.
The power of the heated kang is not limited to this. It will also continuously release heat, dissipating the cold in the cave and making the cave warmer.
In the cave...
Zhao Qian was guiding Shi and said: "Don't put too much firewood in each time, otherwise the air will not be able to get in, which will make the fire less intense, and the firewood will not burn completely, and carbon monoxide will easily be produced."
"Air? Carbon monoxide?"
Shi and the two slaves looked at each other, completely confused.
"This is too troublesome to explain. Just remember what I say." Zhao Qian did not intend to explain too much and continued: "Also, there is no need to keep burning, as this will waste a lot of firewood."
Because there is not enough time this year, there is not a lot of firewood found. If you use it sparingly, you may be able to use it. If it keeps burning, there must be not enough firewood.
Besides, there is no need to keep burning. When the temperature of the heated kang reaches its peak, it will not rise again.
Shi nodded vigorously, "Understood!"
Zhao Qian said: "You continue to watch, I have to notify the other two caves."
With that said, he plunged into the freezing rain again and ran towards the cave where the other two were responsible for burning the kang.
Two hours later, all the fire pits in the entire Yanze tribe were heated up, making the tribesmen who originally felt cold feel warm.
"There's one last place!"
After Zhao Qian finished working in the three caves, he turned his attention to the stone house where Erya lived.
Because the stone house is located far away from the cave, the stone house is not responsible for the three caves, but has a special place for burning Kang.
Zhao Qian came to the stone house, opened the door and entered: "Teacher, it's cold, I'm here to burn the kang for you."
"I've been here for so many years, but you don't need to burn the kang for me."
As Erya said, he wanted to stand up, but after trying several times, he still couldn't stand up.
Upon seeing this, Zhao Qian quickly stepped forward and asked with concern: "Teacher, what's wrong with you?"
Erya smiled bitterly and said: "My legs hurt so much at this time of year that I can't even stand up."
Zhao Qian knew it was Lao Han's leg as soon as he heard it, and asked, "Won't the spell work?"
Erya shook his head and said, "I've tried it a long time ago, but it doesn't work."
Zhao Qian said: "This is caused by the cold weather. As long as the fire is on, it will be warm."
After saying that, he didn't care whether Erya wanted it or not, so he went to another stone house outside the house.
This stone house was built not long ago. It is specially used for Erya to burn the kang when the weather is cold. It can also be used as a kitchen when the weather is hot, which is closer to the kang on the earth.
Zhao Qian lit the fire bed and returned to the stone house where Erya lived. At this moment, he could clearly feel that the temperature in the stone house had increased slightly, but it had not yet reached the highest value.
"Teacher, let me help you get on the kang!"
Zhao Qian walked to Erya and helped Erya onto the kang.
Erya sat on the kang, felt the temperature, and said with surprise in her voice, "It's really hot."
Zhao Qian smiled and asked, "Teacher, are your legs feeling better?"
Erya nodded, "I'm feeling better, and it's not as painful as before."
Zhao Qian continued: "From now on, I will come to burn the kang for the teacher every day. When I go back, I will ask Sister Yun if there is any way to cure your leg."
Although he said so, he himself understood that the possibility of Lao Han's legs being cured was very slim, especially for Erya who had had Lao Han's legs for many years.
"No need to bother..."
Erya smiled and waved his hand, but without saying anything, he asked: "Zhao Qian, what do you think of the Yanze tribe?"
Zhao Qian thought for a while and replied: "I feel pretty good. It's more humane than other tribes."
Human touch!
Erya was startled and said with a smile: "This is the first time I have heard someone use these three words to evaluate a tribe, and others evaluate a tribe in terms of whether it is strong or not."
Hearing this, Zhao Qian scratched his head in embarrassment.
To be honest, the reason why he joined the Yanze Tribe.
On the one hand, the Yanze tribe saved him, and on the other hand, the Yanze tribe was humane and had a certain bottom line in doing things.
Just like when Wang Qianqian and Liu Yun brought him to Qiurya for treatment, if this kind of thing were done in other tribes, there would only be one result.
He was killed on the spot, and Wang Qianqian and Liu Yun were taken away by the tribe and used as slaves. They would not be like the Yanze tribe.
At this time, Erya suddenly asked: "Do you know how to become an Erya?"
Zhao Qian thought for a while and replied: "You must have a broad mind, treat your tribe as your own family, and do everything you can to protect your tribe and the tribe."
"..."
Hearing this answer, Erya fell silent for a while and didn't speak for a long time.
Zhao Qian thought he had made a mistake and asked, "Teacher, did I make a mistake somewhere?"
Erya said: "You are right, but that's not what I asked."
Zhao Qian asked in confusion: "What is the teacher asking?"
Erya reorganized his words and said: "Currently, you can engrave healing dominoes and see clearly how the source of power operates. It stands to reason that you have mastered all of Erya's abilities, but you are not Erya yet...
…Do you know what it takes to become a real Erya?”
Hearing this, Zhao Qian felt a little embarrassed again.
His answer just now was about the responsibility of becoming Erya, but what Erya asked was simply how to become Erya.
His answers were somewhat inconsistent with the questions.
"Disciple doesn't know."
In fact, Zhao Qian was also a little puzzled. Although he knew everything Erya could do, he still wasn't Erya.
Erya said softly: "If you want to become Erya, you still have to take the last step, which is to awaken Tan Luo."
Zhao Qian was puzzled, "Can you become Erya by awakening Tanluo?"
Erya nodded and said: "After awakening Tanluo, Tanluo will gain your abilities, but at the same time it will also establish a connection between you and Tanluo. Only when the connection is established can you be considered a real Erya."
At this point, Erya stopped and continued: "I plan to wait until this winter is over for you to awaken for the people in the tribe."
"I...I awakened for my people."
Zhao Qian exclaimed and quickly refused: "Teacher, you are still here, how can I possibly awaken my people? No way!"
Under normal circumstances, only after the tribe Erya dies can the disciples of Erya awaken for the tribe and officially become the tribe Erya.
But now, Erya is still alive, and it is against the rules for him to awaken for his tribe.
Erya said: "Don't refuse in a hurry, awakening will be good for you."
