Chapter 12: Successful Iron Smelting & Weapon Making
The people present were stunned.What does cooking mean? What does iron smelting mean?
Tang Xiaoxiao collected some charcoal used by the tribe's barbecue and stuffed it into it and burned it red, and then put the iron ore on it.
It is difficult to achieve the purpose of tempering at ordinary fire.So Tang Xiaoxiao asked Yin Ling.
A thick silver-white smoke suddenly rose. Under the purple fire, the yellow mud kiln almost exploded, but finally some iron was formed.
Tang Xiaoxiao threw the smelted iron into the water that Amu called to cool, then picked it up and smiled with satisfaction.
"Madam, leader. Can this be eaten?" The succulent pointed at the iron lump in Tang Xiaoxiao's hand.
"Uh! This is not edible, it is iron, which can be used to make many things, weapons, etc...."
"Weapons! Can you teach us!"
Hearing these two words, the orcs present instantly lit up!
"Well, that's OK. As long as you are willing to learn."
Two pieces of iron ore, a piece of iron the size of a fist came out. Although there are still some impurities, they can be used.
"Congratulations to the master for successfully smelting iron, and the reputation point is 200."
"Wow! I'm getting rich. I need a loom. All the silks I used to get started. Finally, I can change the loom! I'll take it out for me later!"
"Okay!"
Tang Xiaoxiao has been busy making irons and arrows these days, teaching Amu and others to smel iron and iron to make weapons. Amu and others are curious about how Tang Xiaoxiao made those iron blocks into small sharp knives and inserted them on small wooden sticks... and how did he make strange-shaped crossbow arrows...
Yin Ling took the crossbow arrow made by Tang Xiaoxiao and looked at it carefully. What kind of weapon was this that could actually shoot orcs. In his mind, he had a vague idea: "Xiaoxiao, how did you make this crossbow arrow?"
"It's not easy to do, but I've taught Amu and the others. I thought the tribe had a hole in the ground, so I might as well release it for Azhu, and make a place as a warehouse for making weapons. How about it?
I once heard you say that the monkey tribe will use weapons. If the tiger tribe has this long-range weapon, it can shoot the monkey tribe.”
Yin Ling paused his hand, and indeed, this kind of crossbow arrow is undoubtedly the most suitable one.
"Give me a few days, and I will teach some orcs the techniques of smelting iron and making crossbow arrows. By the way, Yinling, you ask Alan to sell the straw sandals we made a few days ago at the beast market, and then buy more iron ore with the exchanged green coins."
Tang Xiaoxiao also figured it out that the beast world is not without currency, but their currency is just a film made of jade, which is really luxurious.
"good."
Yin Ling walked to the entrance of the cave and watched Tang Xiaoxiao's figure shaking inside. What kind of female he picked up was dangerous and attractive, which made him deeply fall...
At the same time, he had more curiosity about her race...
Azhu was dragged out of the cave.He was so hungry that he lost more than ten pounds and ran to the elder's cave crying.
Amu and the others listened to Tang Xiaoxiao's command to build a fire kiln in the cave and a chimney on the fire kiln, so that they could make weapons underground with peace of mind.
Tang Xiaoxiao drew drawings of crossbow arrows and some cold weapons. Although the orcs did not have a strong understanding ability, through Tang Xiaoxiao's patient teaching by words and deeds, he also knew that he was almost inseparable.
Except for hunting, the people in the hunting team were all sleeping in caves to think about their weapons...
Tang Xiaoxiao made some plum wine with the newly picked plums. There was no such thing as sorrow relief in this beast world, and she missed it a little.
The cabbage planted in the backyard has almost grown and can be eaten. Tang Xiaoxiao praised the fertile land in the beast world, and wouldn't it be a waste if it is not used properly?
Afu and Ashou also raised the seven pheasants very fat.
Tang Xiaoxiao was nestled in Yin Ling's arms, and the sky gradually became cold. Although there was animal skin on her straw sandals, she still had some frozen feet.
Tang Xiaoxiao rubbed her toes, and it would be great if there were insoles.
"What is that?"
Yin Ling pointed to the loom on the ground.
"Oh, this is a loom, used to weave silk...that is...the cocoon I picked back that day...but there is a lack of a stool."
He just touched the wool on the stone bed and thoughtfully: "Yin Ling, will you be at home tomorrow?"
Yin Ling held Tang Xiaoxiao's arm and paused: "Here. What's wrong?"
"Tomorrow I want to go to the forest to cut more trees, and it will be thick. I want to make some furniture, but I can't handle it myself, so I want you to help me." But she remembered Yin Ling cut a thick tree with a sharp knife.
"good."
"After Alan comes back from the beast market, we will find something to make insoles. It's cold and my feet are frozen. Then I think about decorating the cave."
"furnish?"
"Yes, look, just seal the entrance of the cave and leave a door that can be walked away. You can also put a charcoal brazier in the cave so that it will be warm in winter."
Tang Xiaoxiao rubbed her red feet.
Yin Ling nodded. He knew that she was afraid of the cold and felt a little distressed. No matter where his little female was, she was tender and could not be hurt at all.
Yin Ling lifted her clothes and placed Tang Xiaoxiao's cold-cold feet on her belly to warm her feet.
Tang Xiaoxiao's face turned red: "Oh...why are you doing..."
"Don't move, isn't it warm?" Yin Ling held Tang Xiaoxiao's ankle, put her face close to Tang Xiaoxiao's ears, and gently blew the heat.
“Warm…warm…”
Tang Xiaoxiao turned her head away with a blushing face.
"I...I'll pick vegetables and make cabbage meatball soup for you tonight..."
Tang Xiaoxiao quickly jumped off the stone bed and ran away.
"Madam, the leader!"
Ah Fu ran over from not far away.
"What's wrong with Ah Fu?"
"Phizines...Phizines can fly and want to run away. A Shou is catching them!"
Tang Xiaoxiao forgot about this.
So he quickly followed Ah Fu to the pheasant circle.
The pheasant circle is a little small, and the pheasant is half-large and it is not small. Those pheasants can barely hold it, but they all flapped their wings. A Shou jumped up and down in the pheasant circle and grabbed the pheasant that wanted to fly, with chicken feathers flying all over the sky!
"Doudu, exchange for a pair of scissors."
Tang Xiaoxiao reached out to catch a pheasant flying out, and mercilessly cut off the feathers on their wings to prevent them from flying.
After working hard for a while, they finished cutting their hair. The pheasants in the circle flapped their wings hard, but they had no choice but to be able to carry their bodies without their feathers.
"Afu AShou, let these scissors be kept for you. If their wings grow, you can cut them off and remember not to cut their flesh."
"Yeah! I know, the leader's wife!"
"Come back for dinner later, and make cabbage meatball soup today!"
"Yeah yeah!!"
Tang Xiaoxiao pulled a lot of cabbage in the vegetable field and sat at the entrance of the cave to pick vegetables.
Yin Ling was like her to help her, but she was always ridiculed by Tang Xiaoxiao.
"Madam, the leader! I'm back!"
Alan brought her man back, with a big leather pocket in her hand filled with iron ore.
"Madam, the boss's shoes are sold for nothing. After changing to a lot of green coins, we bought all the iron ore that the Pangolins put today with green coins."
"Okay, you go and send it to Amu and the others, they are in the cave."
