Wang Wei looked at the honeycomb on the tree. He didn't want to remove the honeycomb yet. If he wanted to breed bees, he still needed to make a honeycomb. He mainly couldn't figure out the internal structure of the honeycomb. He only knew that the external structure of the honeycomb was a square cube.

.

In order to prevent the Xia tribe from cutting down this dead tree by cutting firewood, it needs to be marked. What we need to do now is to protect this tree.

He asked Xia Dazui to surround the dead tree with short branches and asked them to pay attention to the tree when cutting it down.

Xia Dazui and the people in the hunting team quickly got busy.

Wang Wei checked the trap that the bear fell into. It should have fallen in before it reached the tree. After it was injured, it could only run away.

He also checked the spikes inside the trap and found that they were not sharp enough. He knew that the main reason was because the Xia tribe did not have iron tools.

Xia Feng said that when he was tracking the bear, he smelled the scent of flowers in the air. Could it be that the bear had stolen nectar?

Wang Wei looked carefully from below and found that the honeycomb on the tree was intact and had not been damaged.

So what happened? Did the bear eat honey elsewhere?

On the way back to the tribe, Wang Wei was still thinking about the problem.

Xia Dazui had a question in his mind. He saw that Wang Wei was obviously thinking about something, but he never asked. When he saw that Wang Wei's facial expression was not so serious, he finally couldn't help but ask what he had always wanted to ask.

"Your Majesty, what is the Fox Fairy?"

Wang Wei's meditation was interrupted.

He had no choice but to tell Xia Dazui that he was a fox in this world. According to legend, foxes could cultivate into immortals, transform into human forms, and interact with people.

Xia Dazui became even more curious. He asked: "Is there any difference between you that a fox can become an immortal through cultivation and that the king is a god? Is the king transformed into a fox immortal?"

After hearing this, Wang Wei was angry and funny, and laughed and cursed:

"When I transform into your mother, I am transformed into a fox fairy. You can imagine it. Is the fox fairy as smart as me? Is the fox fairy as handsome as me?"

After Wang Wei said this, he felt that in primitive society, he really couldn't compare with the fox fairy.

Xia Dazui and others naturally understood what Wang Wei was talking about and just laughed.

They quickly remembered what Wang Wei said in their minds in case they would say it out to shock others.

Wang Wei told them that the bear had not stolen the honey yet and would probably come back, and told them to be more careful in the future.

After Xia Dazui heard what Wang Wei said, he became interested again. He thought that if the bear came again, he would capture it. He had never eaten bear meat.

The people of the Xia tribe have always had confidence in their own strength, including the strength of their military force.

They once defeated a tiger, even though it was a tiger that fell into a trap, but they were still proud of it.

After catching the tiger and eating the tiger meat, they felt the power of the tiger, so their confidence became stronger.

In addition, there was a clever king in the Xia tribe who taught them how to set various traps for animals, so they could run rampant in the forest.

Wang Wei thought to himself that after he mastered the weapons, wouldn't these people be walking sideways?

Everyone returned to the tribe.

When Wang Wei came to the charcoal kiln, he couldn't feel the heat of the charcoal kiln from the outside. He looked inside through the observation port and found that the bright light in the charcoal kiln had become dim. Even so, he still couldn't open the kiln now and could only come back tomorrow.

Check.

I also inspected the newly made brick bellows. The box body was smoothed with yellow mud and now needs to be dried in the shade. The air plates of the other bellows have been glued with chicken feathers and fixed with thin ropes around the air plates. Other small parts have also been fixed.

After the production is completed, you only need to wait for the bellows box to dry before assembling everything.

The next arrangement is for Wang Wei, Xia Tongya and Xia Huo to crush the iron ore.

After moving part of the iron ore out of the warehouse, the three of them had to break the iron ore into thumb-sized particles, about 2 to 3 centimeters. The crushing process was too difficult, and they did not have a crusher, so they had to do it all by hand.

.

The tools used were crude stone hammers, but what they didn't expect was that their stone hammers couldn't break the iron ore. In other words, the hardness of the iron ore was higher than their stone hammers.

Wang Wei now understands how difficult it is for grassroots construction of the city wall. They use stone knives, stone axes, wooden sticks to dig, and dig the soil with their hands. The difficulty is really beyond imagination. It is not something ordinary people can endure, but

They are still gritting their teeth and persisting.

He once said that it would take a month to build the city. What a childish and crazy idea.

If the production tools are not good enough, people will shed several layers of skin over time.

Now he puts his best hope on these iron ores.

If you can't break the iron ore with a stone hammer, you have to use iron ore to smash the iron ore. Choose a piece of iron ore that looks good in shape and can be tied with a wooden stick, and then use this piece of iron ore to make a stone.

hammer.

It was already around four o'clock in the afternoon, and the three of them smashed about twenty to thirty kilograms, and also smashed three stone hammers made of iron ore.

Wang Wei thought to himself, if iron is smelted, the first tool is a hammer, and then the hammer is used to smash other iron ores.

The crushed iron ore is still relatively large, and these stones must be smashed into smaller pieces, but not too small. Iron ore that is too small will quickly fall to the bottom of the iron-making furnace and cannot be fully burned and cannot be oxygenated.

reduction.

This process will be very painful and not simple. The hands of Wang Wei and the other three people are covered with blood blisters. Originally, he already had a blood blister on his hand that was broken, but now he is gritting his teeth and persisting.

Really unable to hold on, Wang Wei thought that he would have to add more people to do the job. He would have to bring in Xia Dazui and Xia Feng's hunting team.

So Wang Wei asked Xia Tongya to call the hunting team over to work.

He also saw that Xia Huo's palms were also covered in blood blisters, so the two simply stopped and waited.

Xia Huo is a sturdy man with thick hair, dark skin and bright eyes.

Wang Wei said:

"Xia Huo, you are good at repairing and grinding tools, and you can also identify many types of trees. Do you know that there is a tree whose wood is heavy, hard, and extremely soft?"

Xia Huo lowered his head and thought, then shook his head.

Wang Wei wanted to talk about trees such as mulberry, orange, papaya, and wattle. Considering that Xia Huo might know these trees, but didn't know their names, he could only tell the characteristics of these trees one by one.

Wang Wei looked for these trees because he planned to make bows and arrows for the Xia tribe. After meeting the Root tribe, the Wild Wolf tribe, and then Xia Dazui meeting the bear, he felt that he should make long-range tools for the Xia tribe.

For people who often walk into the wilderness, having remote tools means more range of activities and safety.

Wang Wei said: "Don't rush to look for it now. Our main task now is to make iron first. But when you cut down trees in the future, you should pay attention to the characteristics of the trees I just mentioned. If you find anything, let me know."

Xia Huo said: "Okay. What is the use of these trees, Your Majesty?"

"Haha, you know Xia Feng's stones and javelins are good. He can use them to attack animals or people from a distance, which is very harmful. But the Xia tribe only has one Xia Feng who can attack from a distance. If I make a

Everyone in the Xia tribe is as powerful as Xia Feng, do you think the Xia tribe is more powerful in terms of tribal force?"

"That...that's really powerful."

Xia Huo was so excited that she was speechless.

"Yes, so we still have a long way to go."

"Your Majesty, I will look for the tree you mentioned every day from now on."

"Don't worry, let's burn out the iron first. Once we have the iron, we can go out and look for it. It will be easier then."

Wang Wei wanted to make tools like axes.

"Is iron better than stone?"

"Of course, if you smash iron ore, the stone hammer you use won't be able to break it, so we have to make tools that are harder than stone tools."

Xia Huo didn't speak. He was thinking about what the iron tool the king was talking about was? It was harder than stone tools.

At this time, Xia Tongya and the hunting team arrived.

Wang Wei didn't talk too much nonsense and just asked them to smash the iron ore.

This process is tedious and requires more patience.

Xia Dazui knew what the king wanted to use these stones for. He once told him that he would use these stones to make the sharpest knife. He had always been worried about the knife that the king did not exchange for. Now he saw that the king wanted to make it.
