The next morning, the coast was already filled with people. Without exception, these people came here after hearing the boasts of the tribesmen who had climbed onto the bamboo rafts last night.
The tribesmen were very enthusiastic. Naturally, Hua Xi would not stop their enthusiasm. He quickly led a group of carpenters to build four bamboo rafts for everyone to ride on. There were too many people gathered around the ferry. Some tribesmen who couldn't wait,
They might as well follow what Hua Xi and the others did and make a bamboo raft. It was already simple. After making one, these people found that it was not difficult and made several more as more and more people made them.
The tribesmen joined the raft-making army, and a large number of bamboo rafts were quickly mass-produced.
In just one morning, all the bamboo piled on the coast was used up. Because the tribesmen who cut down heard the news and came to watch and start making bamboo rafts, no one cut down the bamboo. Hua Xi couldn't help but smile bitterly.
With a rush of work, the stacked bamboo wood was made into 11 bamboo rafts with a size of about 2x4 meters.
Amid the cheers and noises of the crowd, batches of warriors braved their courage and climbed onto the bamboo rafts. After a short period of adaptation, they were no longer as afraid of the sea water under the rafts. Looking at the number of bamboo rafts, Hua Hua
Xi ordered the tribesmen to stop making such small bamboo rafts, and instead cut down bamboo wood to make larger bamboo rafts. These small bamboo rafts can only carry 3 adults. If more, seawater will seep into the small bamboo rafts and cause them to sink.
The speed is fast and the rotation is flexible, which is very suitable for tango cruising in some rivers and lakes. Hua Xi also regards these bamboo rafts as tools for the tribesmen to practice basic boating skills.
At noon, Hua Xi patted the sawdust on his body, took the piece of meat handed over by a tribesman, and gnawed it. Hua An looked at the tribesmen playing at the beach, walked to Hua Xi, and sat down on the soft
On the sand, he asked with a smile: "Patriarch, now these magic weapons that can withstand the anger of the sea god have been created. Hey, I wonder where the big granary that the patriarch mentioned yesterday, haha, is?"
Hua Xi's Wu Zang Temple was starving. When he saw Hua An walking up to him with a wicked smile on his face, he knew what his plan was. Sure enough, he was inquiring about the big granary. He immediately said angrily: "Hua An
, I will reveal it when it’s time to reveal it, why don’t you even give me time to eat?”
"Hehe, yes, yes! I lost my temper!" Hua An rolled his head and said embarrassedly
Hua Xi swallowed the last piece of meat in three mouthfuls, and after taking a look at Hua An's appearance, he couldn't help but find it very funny, and couldn't help but say: "Hua An!"
"Ah? Yes!" Hua An heard Hua Xi calling him and didn't react for a moment. He was stunned and quickly responded.
"Come on, follow me to make fishing tools!" Hua Xi stood up, patted Hua An on the shoulder, and walked straight to the willow forest not far behind the beach. When Hua An heard this, he didn't understand Hua An.
What kind of fishing was Xi talking about? Hua Xi was already ten meters away. Hua An didn't think about it anymore. He got up and chased him. No matter what he was talking about, what the clan leader said must be something good.
The willow trees of this era are a bit different from those of later generations. Although they grow in water and bathe in sunlight, their branches are obviously thicker and longer than those of later generations, and they are stronger in toughness. They are most suitable for making fishing nets, except for weeds and vines.
Only when hemp is found can materials be made into hemp fiber products. At that time, real fishing nets can be expected to be realized.
Hua Xi took out a bronze knife. Because the quality was not sharp enough, he spent a lot of energy and cut it dozens of times before cutting off a two-meter-long willow branch. Hua An and several people who heard the news
The tribesmen who came over silently watched Hua Xi’s every move. Although they couldn’t understand why Hua Xi cut these long and tough willow sticks, and what use they had, their long-standing habits let them know that this was the most important time.
It’s better to talk less and see more
In this way, Hua Xi spent nearly a morning just cutting enough to weave a four-square-meter fishing net. After cutting the wicker, Hua Xi found that there were a lot of people watching around him, most of them were using
Looking at him with surprised and curious eyes, Hua Xi certainly wouldn't let them stand there stupidly. Watching him work, he immediately called on a few ingenious women to learn from his own way of weaving fishing nets according to what his old father had done when he was a child.
Just like the fishing nets used for fishing in ponds, Hua Xi positioned the mesh of the fishing net at a distance of about half a finger's length from the eye opening. Because the wicker will become tougher when it touches the water, so larger sea fish should not be able to catch it easily.
Breaking through the fishing net, he ran away. Because they had woven rattan nets for hunting before, the fishing nets were just the same except that the mesh was much smaller. Therefore, it only took a moment for the tribesmen to understand what Hua Xi meant.
During the process of weaving fishing nets, the two big fleshy balls on the chests of several female tribesmen were always dangling in front of Hua Xi's eyes. Some women seemed to be about to burst their fleshy balls because they squatted down and bent over.
Yes, the male tribesmen who were watching around were all saluting at 90 degrees. However, Hua Xi was not interested in the women in front of him at all. Although his appearance had evolved to be the same as his own, without the ugly appearance of the ape-man, but in front of him
The stench and dirty bodies emanating from these women really turned off Hua Xi. Although cleaning soap has been made, it is not used by everyone. Hua Xi plans to use it in the Chinese Code in the future.
Add one more thing: If you don’t clean with soap, what kind of punishment will be imposed?
Although Hua Xi has long been accustomed to the odor of the tribesmen, at this moment, Hua Xi feels uncomfortable no matter what she does. Holding back the strong odor, Hua Xi finally weaves the fishing net with the help of several skillful female tribesmen.
In addition, Hua Xi also specially rewarded each person with two one-yuan Chinese coins, causing the female tribesmen to scream and keep looking back and forth at Hua Xi's body.
Hua Xi did not dare to stay any longer. After tearing the fishing net hard, he felt that there was no problem, and started to lead hundreds of tribesmen towards the direction of Sunset Fort. Of course, Hua Xi was not going back to the city, but to a stream of Bailong River.
In the slower areas, fishing is now in July, and the fishing period in the south has basically passed. However, you can't encounter large schools of fish, but you can still encounter the fish living here.
After these two days, the tribe is no longer afraid of bamboo rafts, but they don't understand water, which makes Hua Xi distressed. For this reason, the plan to go out to sea to explore and fish can only be temporarily shelved until everyone can dive in the future.
, swim, and make plans now. First, take the tribe to the Bailong River to learn fishing skills and familiarize themselves with the water properties. First, the Bailong River flows through the Sunset Fort. Hua Xi discovered it when he passed by the beach several times. The water flow is relatively strong.
It is gentle, the depth is only waist high, and it is nearly 20 to 30 meters long. It is a good place to learn fishing.
The group of people were chatting and laughing, and soon came to the edge of this river section and took a quick look. From time to time, they could see fat fish leaping out of the river, sprinkled with strings of crystal water drops, and then dancing gracefully.
posture falling into the water
Hua Xi smiled and pointed at the fat fish jumping out of the water and said, "Haha, have you seen those fish?"
"and?"
"fish?"
Everyone was as puzzled as Monk Zhang Er, who was puzzled.
"Haha, that's right! These are called fish and they are our food!" Hua Xi said with a smile.
"Food?" When they heard the word food, everyone exclaimed. No one would have thought that these monsters in the water were actually food!
"Fish! Fish! Fish!" Hua Xi shouted. In the mood of surprise and uneasiness, the tribesmen shouted and looked at the strange monsters with complicated eyes. Suddenly, a voice sounded in the crowd: "Fish
, So these are called fish!" With the sound, everyone turned around in surprise to see who it was. Hua Xi was also attracted by the sound. The crowd gradually dispersed, and a carpenter with a bronze chisel appeared.
In everyone's eyes
Hua Xi looked up and down and thought: This person said this, has he seen a fish before? But then he thought about it, it's not strange, what's so strange about seeing a fish!
When the carpenter saw the patriarch looking at him up and down, he quickly stepped out from the crowd and shouted: "Chief, I have often seen these monsters called fish before. I just heard the patriarch say their names, so I lost my composure!"
"It's okay, get up! Haha -" Hua Xi helped the carpenter up and asked, "You said you have seen him often before? Where?"
The clan leader looked at Hua Xi in fear and said, "This is also where I used to be a member of the Naikoni tribe and later joined the Chinese tribe!"
"Oh -" Hua Xi suddenly realized it and thought: Yes, the Keni people live by the sea all year round. It's not strange to see fish, right? Fish?
An unspeakable thought flashed through Hua Xi's mind, and Hua Xi quickly asked loudly: "Since we see each other often, do you know how to fish?"
The carpenter Wei Nuo said: "Chief, in the past we only dared to go to the blue water, oh, no, it is the seaside. The water is diverted to the seaside to dry the salt. We did not dare to go deep into the sea because many tribesmen were drowned in the sea in the past.
The monsters ate them, so we dare not be disrespectful to those monsters.”
Hua Xi nodded and thought to himself: The so-called monsters are either fish or because they don't understand water. If they are bitten to death or drowned, no wonder they can't even make a raft.
"Okay, now you see how I subdue these monsters and eat them!" Hua Xi stopped talking nonsense. Seeing that there were fat fish everywhere in the river, Hua Xi's childlike innocence was aroused and he was eager to try.
He took off the animal skin covering his upper body and placed it on the grass on the bank of the river, revealing his strong bronze muscles. He was about to step towards the river and try to catch fish with a fishing net. Hua Xi suddenly heard the sound of a woman behind her again.
The scream was a high-decibel one, causing a stinging pain in the eardrums! Although Hua Xi is not interested in tribal women, human beings have always had a love of beauty and narcissism. After several years of wilderness life, she used to be fair-skinned.
The skin and excess fat have long since disappeared, replaced by Arnold Schwarzenegger. In Mandarin, he has the same figure as Arnold Schwarzenegger. Of course, it is not that scary. Hua Xi is still very satisfied with this.
Hua Xi shook her head slightly with a smile. Amidst the screams, she turned around and walked towards the river section.
