Chapter 23 Panic and no choice of road


Chapter 23: Panicking

A lot of pottery bowls were burnt and cracked. In fact, as long as there was no leakage or a few cracks, he didn't care now.

After the temperature dropped, Zhou Xu asked Butterfly to help move the pottery bowls to the lake. Then he didn't hesitate and started cleaning them with lake water.

During this process, he was able to confirm that these pottery bowls were fully capable of holding water!

This was undoubtedly a big surprise for Zhou Xu, who was already prepared to fail for the first time.

But if you think about it carefully, if you don't say anything else, compared with the primitive people of the Neolithic Age in history, his thinking when it comes to stacking stoves must be advanced.

Even the primitive people of the Neolithic Age could burn it, so how could he not burn it?

In fact, as long as the threshold is set low enough and the most basic 'usability' is taken as the premise, regardless of whether it is cracked or not, asymmetrical, ugly or not, the yield of this batch will still be Very impressive.

Putting all the washed pottery bowls aside, Zhou Xu couldn't wait to start making pottery pots, although it was already approaching evening.

"Butterfly, come here, you will be mainly responsible for this in the next period of time."

At this time, Zhou Xu completely believed that with Butterfly's skillful hands, the pottery pot made would definitely be better than his.

However, he still set an example for Butterfly first, and based on his limited knowledge of playing with lamps, he told her some precautions.

For now, the pottery only needs butterflies to make it. It doesn’t require too many people, otherwise his stove won’t be able to cook it.

As for other manual work in the tribe, weaving baskets and bark bags for hunting has actually become unnecessary in a short period of time.

The quality of the product itself is still very good, and a batch of spare parts have been compiled, so there is no more demand for the time being.

Currently, all staff except Butterfly have new arrangements.

They are polishing stone axes and stone bullets, and at the same time weaving large back baskets.

There is nothing much to say about stone axes and stone bullets. This large basket is mainly used by slingers to carry stone bullets.

On this day, it started to rain lightly, which was not a good thing for Zhou Xu and the others.

Because all the mice were hiding, it was basically impossible for the hunting team to reach their prey.

At the same time, their tribe's food was instantly in short supply, and they had to chew bark and rhizomes as food reserves again.

Dashan and the others have long been accustomed to this kind of day, and there is nothing surprising about it.

To even speak of it, having one meal every day like these days, and every meal has meat, has really never happened before. This is strange to them. Woolen cloth.

But Zhou Xu is different. As a person who used to eat three meals a day, he has really never had a full meal from time to time.

I'm fine now. I haven't even eaten a single meal. I feel so hungry that I feel dizzy.

There was really nothing he could do, so of course he gnawed on the bark and roots. One couldn't really starve oneself to death, but to him, it was really worthless.

Originally, they hoped that the rain would stop for half a day, so that in the remaining half day, they could still try to hunt.

But it turns out that this kind of drizzling rain is the most annoying. It rains endlessly as soon as it starts, and has no intention of stopping.

But adjust your mentality, everyone is so tired every day, and occasionally being forced to take a day off and have a good rest may be a good thing.

At the same time, the rain in the sky is undoubtedly natural fresh water for them.

Just put all the pottery bowls that were made before out to collect water. At least I can drink a few more bowls of water today.

The rain didn’t stop until late at night. After a day’s rest, everyone gathered their energy and began to hunt for a new day, full of desire for food.

And Zhou Xu also took Dashan and the others to prepare to hunt the big spider in the dark forest.

Obviously, after some serious thinking and weighing, he finally decided to set the hunting location in this dark forest. The bare wasteland environment is too dangerous for them, and their fragile bodies need enough cover to ensure their safety.

"Have you seen this tree? At this time, you can directly hide behind the trunk of this tree..."

In the dark forest, Zhou Xu was gesticulating while telling Dashan and others some of his own stories. Tactical arrangements and action ideas.

If you just talk to them in the camp, it will be difficult for them to understand.

But when you get to the place, you demonstrate it directly to them, and they will understand what you want them to do.

Of course, even so, Dashan and the others still have a lot to remember. After all, he has to consider various situations.

Thinking about the appearance of that monster, this was bound to be a life-threatening battle, and he didn't dare to be careless in the slightest.

While they were so busy, deep in the black forest, a tribe member suddenly rushed towards their direction in a panic.

The moment he saw this figure, an ominous premonition arose in Zhou Xu's heart.

Because that tribe member was placed outside the cave to keep an eye on the big spider.

“No, that’s not good! The big spider ran out of the cave!”

At that moment, the panic in the other party's words could not be concealed at all.

In fact, there was no need for the tribe member to tell them, because they had already seen it!

At this moment, the huge figure of the spider monster broke directly into their field of vision.

Zhou Xu, who had seen the monster before, could still calm down at the moment.

But Dashan and the others were obviously frightened, and their entire bodies became stiff.

After all, no matter how accurately Zhou Xu described the terror of the big spider before, it was still not as profound as what they felt after seeing it with their own eyes!

“This, this is the spider monster that the leader mentioned before?!”

The sudden appearance of the big spider can be said to have directly disrupted Zhou Xu’s original plan.

At this point in time, he was not ready at all.

“Scatter, disperse quickly!!”

There was no time to think about it, the big spider had already rushed in front of them.

The huge body like an off-road vehicle was more flexible than he expected.

At the critical moment of life and death, everyone fled in panic.

【My dear, you have reached this level, even if you don’t have it, you have to get it! 】

Zhou Xu, who was forced to panic at this time, was also afraid of the danger. He seized the opportunity of the big spider rushing to the other side, quickly organized Dashan and the others, turned the sling, and headed towards the spider. The big spider attacks.

At the critical moment of life and death, facing the threat of death from the big spider at any time, many people performed abnormally. Only Dashan forcibly stabilized his position at the critical moment. After rotating the sling at high speed, he fiercely smashed it Throw it away.

“Give me a win!!!”

Here’s the update, and I’d like to thank book friends ‘The Splendor of the World’, ‘Lazy and Understanding’, and ‘Qin Zhi QZ’ for their rewards!
