From eschatological to primitive

"... When I was young, I was hunting. Once I chased a stag and ran into a mountain. There were white stones everywhere in that mountain. Is it the saltpeter mine you mentioned?"

Mu's voice was a little erratic.

The God of the Earth wouldn't tell Jue specifically because he knew he had discovered the saltpeter mine a long time ago, and ask Jue to mention him, right?But why didn't the God of the Earth speak to him directly?He is obviously very pious, but suddenly he feels a little wronged~

There was a big beard covering him, and Mu himself was stable, so Huang Jue didn't notice the little sorrow in his heart, and said in surprise, "Really, that's great! Whether it's true or not, just go and see it." Father, do you still remember the way to get there?" After all, according to this meaning, at least ten years have passed.

"The road over there is familiar, of course I remember."

The hunting routes of people in the tribe are basically fixed. Although it happened when I was young, I can remember it after thinking about it.

"That's good."

Huang Jue breathed a sigh of relief, half a handful of saltpeter crystals had been boiled out of so much ground frost. With such an efficiency, when would he be able to live a life of using ice freely—before he thought that two baskets of ground frost could boil out a lot of saltpeter crystals. Here comes the saltpeter!

Feng held a piece of saltpeter in his hand and looked at the setting sun, "Why does this thing turn water into ice?" It looked quite like ice.

"You wait, I'll show you a demonstration." Huang Jue smiled proudly, "The God of the Earth told me all about it yesterday!"

Ask the slave to bring a half basin of water and put the saltpeter into the water. Visible to the naked eye, transparent ice condenses and spreads in the water. After a while, the saltpeter disappears and is replaced by a half basin of ice that is bubbling with cold air.

Feng's eyeballs were about to pop out, and it took him a while to find his own voice, "Also, it really turned into ice!!!"

After being shocked, he picked up a piece of ice and was about to put it in his mouth, "It's such a hot day, it would be great if I could eat ice every day."

Huang Jue was so scared that he hurriedly stopped, "Wait, this is not edible!"

Feng looked puzzled, "Isn't this ice? Why can't ice be eaten?"

Huang Jue couldn't explain to her the principle that calcium nitrate dissolved in water would absorb heat and reduce the water temperature to freeze, so he could only bring out the almighty God of the Earth, "I don't know, it was the God of the Earth who told me. Maybe this has something to do with us The ice you see in winter is different."

Since it was said by the God of the Earth, it must not be eaten.

Feng put down the ice in his hands with regret.

Huang Jue comforted her, "Although it can't be eaten, it can be used to cool down and keep cool. It's also good to freeze food."

Mu thought more, "If the place I discovered is really a saltpeter mine, our tribe will be able to store meat in summer in the future!"

Feng brought the prepared ice to the witch. After a while, Huang Jue got instructions from the God of the Earth, and the news that he could turn water into ice spread throughout the tribe.

There was a commotion in the tribe again, and many people came to Wu to verify whether it was true.

It is indeed cool to have a basin of ice in the room, but there are many people coming and going, and the cold air is gone. Wu simply put the ice basin outside, so that everyone can see it without entering the room.

A person reached out to touch the ice basin, grinning, "It's cold, it's really ice!"

"Of course it's ice. You can tell it's ice by looking at it! With ice, my meat can be frozen."

"It doesn't need to be so hot in the house..."

"You can still eat..."

……

"I just don't know if Jue Ken is willing to tell us this method."

I don't know who said something, and everyone was silent for a moment. According to Jue's temperament, it was really impossible.

One person hesitated, "It should be, didn't he send the ice to Wu?"

"Hmph, that's a witch, can we compare with a witch?"

"But, that's what the God of the Earth told him. Didn't the God of the Earth tell him that he wanted him to tell us?"

"It was the God of the Earth who told him that's right, but...you don't know Jue's temperament. He only cares about his own pleasure since he was a child, and he doesn't care about others, and he doesn't know how the God of the Earth chose him."

"Light, don't be disrespectful to the God of the Earth!"

"Humph!"

The young man called Guang curled his lips, his eyes filled with displeasure.

"Actually, it's okay..." Peng scratched his chicken coop, "I think Jue has changed a lot since he came back from the Tribal Trading Conference... Well, I mean, his temper has changed, and he never talked to me again. Bullying people like before."

"It's only been a few days, who knows what he will do in the future! Anyway, I don't believe he will change!"

"You can't say that. The God of the Earth told him that plant ash can clean up dirt. Didn't he just tell us?"

"That's because plant ashes can be found everywhere. It's not as rare as ice, let alone tomatoes... The tomatoes were planted behind his house!"

"...Big deal, let's trade him something. He can't hunt, so we can just give him some meat..."

……

Huang Jue sat in Wu's room, listening to the discussions of outsiders, expressionless.

After Mu brought the ice basin to Wu, he discussed with Wu about mining saltpeter mines. Because saltpeter was produced by Huang Jue, and Huang Jue was favored by the God of the Earth, he called Huang Jue here as well.

When the discussions started outside, Wu still had some selfish intentions, thinking that Huang Jue would hear people's gratitude to him—after all, in Wu's perception, no matter whether it was plant ash, saltpeter, or tomatoes, all of them fell into disrepair. Things that benefit people, not to mention that Jue received instructions from the God of the Earth in dreams one after another, is a supreme honor, which is enough to make up for the unpleasantness of Jue's character.

But what I didn't expect was that people didn't appreciate Jue at all, and even said a lot of bad things.

This is awkward.

Wu glanced at Huang Jue's face, not sure if he was angry now - he should be angry, right?If it were him, he wouldn't be happy, let alone Jue's temperament is not good.

"Hey, Mu, go outside and say something, tell them to go back quickly after watching, what a noise it looks like!" Wu was older than Mu, and there was no pressure to direct Mu to do things.

Ordinarily, this kind of thing should be let out by the younger generation, but considering Jue's temper... forget it, he is afraid that Jue will fight with those people.

"Need not!"

When Huang Jue spoke, his face was still expressionless, and the corners of his lips were tightly pursed, as if he was suppressing his anger.

Wu Kan's heart was pounding, ancestor, he must not lose his composure, and fight with a tribe of people!

Naturally, Huang Jue would not be foolish enough to fight against the people of a tribe, but he originally planned to provide convenience to the tribe for free - after all, he wanted to improve the standard of living - but now he changed his mind after hearing what these people said.

"Don't they want to exchange things with me? Then let them exchange. By the way, Peng doesn't need it." Peng has always been very friendly, and he helped him speak just now... People must know that only you treat me Well, I will treat you well.

As for other people's opinions, Huang Jue didn't care at all.

Still the same sentence, he just wants to live a more comfortable life for himself, and he doesn't want to be a heartthrob. What other people think has nothing to do with him.

"But...you are not short of food, right?" Wu disagreed, but felt that this was very in line with Jue's temperament. He would be surprised if Jue suddenly became generous.

"Who says I don't lack food? If my father and Feng hadn't raised me, I would have starved to death and froze to death. I am so weak that I can't even hunt... You don't want my father and Feng to support me for the rest of my life." Bar?"

Wu, "...how come, I..."

"Then, don't let my father and Feng raise me, and don't let me trade things with the tribe, Wu, you want me to freeze to death and starve to death?"

"Nonsense!" Wu raised his eyebrows, "How could I want you to die, you are the hope of our tribe!"

After knowing that he would not lose his vest, Huang Jue also became more courageous. He was not at all afraid of Shang Wu, and curled his lips and said, "Fucking hope, who wants to be treated like this!"

"That's not because you were too good at torturing before. Just tell me, is there anyone in our tribe who hasn't been tossed by you?"

"You said it was in the past, isn't it allowed to change?"

"Where did you change..."

"If it doesn't change, I'll go out and beat them up now... let Feng beat them up for me!"

witch,"……"

Wu was so troubled by him that he waved his hand, "It's fine, it's up to you, let them change it with you. But you can't go too far, just change a little." Anyway, it was done by the people in the tribe. Teach them a lesson.

Huang Juele, "I wish I had said no earlier."

Mu didn't bother to talk the whole time, and the matter was settled, but Wu gave him a fierce gouging look, "You just protect him!"

Mu Li said confidently, "He is my son, who will I protect if I don't protect him!" Besides, he didn't feel that his son had done anything wrong. Could it be that someone scolded Jue and made Jue rush to give benefits?

Wu, "Let's go, let's go!" I was so pissed off!

Mu Hejue got up and left without any hesitation.

Wu stared, "Come back, we haven't decided how to arrange things for tomorrow!"

"Didn't you drive us father and son away?"

"... How come you are so obedient at other times!"

Seeing that Wu should be bombed if he continued to talk, Mu would accept it when he was ready, and sat down, "Let's talk about it first, what was discussed before doesn't count, since we want them to exchange things, we have to formulate a rule. "

Wu beard straightened, "Don't forget that you are the leader!" Is this what the leader should say!

"Of course I know that I'm the leader. It's because I'm the leader that it's even more important to keep the water in the bowl evenly, so that no one is at a disadvantage, and no one is taking advantage of it!"

witch,"……"

You can pull it, I believe you are a fool!I have never seen your bowl of water leveled before!

Annoyed, he slandered a few words in his heart, knowing that there would be no benefit in breaking it apart from being more angry, Wu simply talked about the business, "According to your opinion, how should we arrange things for tomorrow? Someone has to dig the saltpeter mine Bar."

Mu didn't know what to do. Women usually go out to gather wild vegetables and fruits, and whoever picks them gets it. The same goes for hunting teams when they go out to hunt. Whoever hunts the prey will belong to whoever hunts.

But when digging saltpeter mines, you can't say that whoever digs it will belong to him, right?

His eyes fell on Huang Jue, "Jue, what do you think should be done?"

Huang Jue had an idea for a long time, "First of all, I told everyone about the saltpeter, so I have to partly dig out the saltpeter mine. I don't want too much, no matter how much I dig, just give me two baskets."

This request was not excessive at all, Wu and Mu nodded in agreement.

"Also, this saltpeter mine was discovered by my father, so it must be part of him..."

Mu waved his hand, "I don't need it, just share it with everyone."

Mu refused, and Huang Jue didn't force it, and continued, "Those who go to dig the mine should get a part of it as a reward. Then, the people in the tribe will share a part, and the rest, no matter how much they dig, will belong to the tribe. .If anyone feels that the saltpeter they have received is not enough, they can exchange it with the tribe."

The author has something to say: Wu: Don't be too selfish!

Huang Jue: I'm selfish, I won't accept you biting me╭(╯^╰)╮

I saw some little angels say that ice made from saltpeter cannot be eaten, and indeed it is not.The meat mentioned here means to put the meat and ice together, just like the ancients used the ice room to store and keep fresh~
