Primitive Tribe Adventure
Chapter 26: Clay pot timer
After Fengyun returned, he found Lei, took out the structural drawing of the new kiln he had drawn, explained to him, and prepared to build the new kiln.
Immediately after lunch, Feng Yun found that the children had appeared in front of his door again.
"Endless."
Feng Yun couldn't help frowning, but he decided to figure out the situation first.
Without waiting for him to ask questions, the children rushed to explain their intentions.
They have decided the winner and want to know if he will continue to provide prizes for them to play in the second round.
"Wishful thinking is very good."
Feng Yun let out a sneer in his heart.
He originally thought that they would keep fighting for the three pieces of meat, but he didn't expect them to get the result so quickly.
Obviously, they have reached a tacit understanding in order to get more meat from him.
In order to confirm his conjecture, Fengyun used his eyes to force the children's eyes.
Some children dared not look at each other. As soon as they met his gaze, they avoided it and became guilty.
His guess is correct.
"You are too tender if you want to play these little tricks in front of me."
Feng Yun decided to break their fantasy.
"I tell you formally now that there is only one game a day. As for how long the game lasts, I will not intervene. Go back. After sunrise tomorrow, I will place the prize where it is today."
The children all showed disappointed expressions, and then Fengyun found that many people were looking in the same direction, their eyes full of anger.
Feng Yun followed their gazes and found that their gaze was on a thin little boy.
He is really thin, like a thin bamboo pole, but his eyes are very bright and very spiritual.
Feng Yun remembered the little boy's appearance.
If he didn't guess wrong, he should be the one who broke his plan. It is very likely that he was the first to propose to end the game early so that he can get more meat from him.
In order to disperse these children as soon as possible, Feng Yun decided to resort to some methods, raised his voice, and said, "Listen well. Although cockfighting has certain physical requirements, technology is more important."
"If the technique is good enough, even if your body is not strong enough, it will not be difficult to win. If I were you, I would go back to practice now and strive to be the winner tomorrow."
The children were moved by Fengyun's words, and soon dispersed, apparently going back to practice.
With the experience of building the kiln last time, and the children no longer bother him, Feng Yun and Lei are building new kilns very quickly.
Even in order to maintain the quality and quantity, most of the kiln was built in two days. After all, Fengyun was very different from the last time the kiln was built.
Drinking the blood of the Flower Hoof Beast sent by storm every day, his physical fitness has steadily improved, and he has already surpassed Lei. As for the level of power control, Lei is even beyond the dust.
All these will help Fengyun greatly improve the progress of the kiln construction.
Unfortunately, the good times didn't last long. On the third day, Fengyun was in trouble again.
The trouble still comes from those little kids.
They ran to complain to him. They have worked very hard, practicing cockfighting skills assiduously, but it is almost impossible to get meat.
Feng Yun looked for his children and found that they were all thinner.
In this regard, he is not surprised.
In cockfighting, although technique is very important, physical fitness is equally important. With similar skills, the stronger party will win a lot more.
"You go call other people, wait for me in the open space, I will teach you a new game."
"What game is it?"
A somewhat timid voice asked first.
Feng Yun saw that he was a very thin little boy, who had attracted his attention because he was criticized by his companions.
"What's your name?"
"My name is Bamboo."
"Really appropriate, as thin as a bamboo pole."
Feng Yun didn't say anything in his heart.
"I won't tell you the name of the game. I'll talk about it when everyone is here. But you can rest assured that the new game is absolutely fair."
"I hope what you said is true."
Zhu took a deep look at Fengyun, waved his hand, and said, "Let's go." Leave first.
"Yun, what fun game do you think of?"
Lei also seemed a little curious.
Lei already knew the game of cockfighting.
He also once praised Fengyun, saying that the game he designed is very good. It can exercise children's balance and physical coordination and help them become excellent hunters and fighters in the future.
"Don't worry, wait for everyone to arrive. I told you, I have to say it again."
"Ok."
Lei also stopped insisting, and focused on building the kiln.
After a while, Fengyun jumped out of the kiln, returned home, and walked over to the clearing.
Ray followed behind him.
When we arrived in the clearing, many children were already there, and after a while, all the children arrived.
"Everyone is here. What new game? Let's talk."
"Okay, I will tell you now. The name of the new game is hide and seek. The rules are very simple, that is, some people hide and let others find it."
"How to tell the winner?"
Fengyun was not surprised by this issue.
The children will play the games he designed, mainly to eat meat, and it is understandable that they put more emphasis on the outcome.
"There are two ways to play hide-and-seek. One is that everyone hides and one person finds it, and the other is that some people hide it, but there is not one person to look for. The specific number is up to you."
This is somewhat different from the hide-and-seek in his impression, but in order to adapt to the situation, he thinks there is nothing wrong with such a change.
"I still can't decide the outcome."
Some children were a little dissatisfied with Fengyun's explanation.
"How can we not be able to tell the winner? We can set a time. The more people we find within the stipulated time, the better the results. Then, can we tell the winner?"
"What if you find the same number of people?"
"This is easy to handle. It depends on the time. It takes a short time to win."
"How can we be sure which person uses the shorter time?"
Feng Yun discovered that Zhu was asking the question this time, and he stared at him with bright eyes.
"I have thought of this. Look at it."
Feng Yun picked up a clay pot from the ground and raised it high.
This was brought from home specially before Feng Yun came over.
Everyone, including Lei, cast their gazes on the clay pot.
"Isn't this just an ordinary jar?"
This time it was still bamboo's question.
"This is not an ordinary pot. There is a small hole at the bottom of it. This is something I made deliberately before firing."
As Feng Yun said, he tilted the jar, facing the people, so that they could see the small hole at the bottom of it.
This clay pot was burned by Fengyun in an old kiln, besides it, he also burned some other things.
"What's the use of this little hole?"
Bamboo is keenly aware that the small hole in the bottom of the tank is the key.
"The role of the small hole is actually to let the water flow through. This jar is used for timing. First fill it with water, and the water will slowly flow out from the bottom. I drain the water in the jar and use it. The time is set as an hour."
Before that, he had done an experiment. A jar of water ran out. He counted more than seven thousand one hundred times, which was very close to seven thousand two hundred.
He tested a total of three times, all between seven thousand one hundred and five and seven thousand two hundred and five, the difference is not much.
One hour, two hours, one hour three thousand six hundred seconds, one hour seven thousand two hundred seconds, it is about the same time as a jar of water dries.
Of course, there must be an error in this, but Fengyun is not exacting, it is almost enough.
Although the earthenware pot timer was very simple, when Feng Yun made it and used it for timekeeping, the totem on his chest was still hot, and the snake body grew a little more.
"It took too long to drain a can of water. Can you break it down?"
Zhu stared at Feng Yun closely, his eyes gleaming.
"I've already figured this out. Look at it."
Feng Yun took out a wooden bar with many scales engraved on it.
"There are a total of 120 notches on this, the thickest one in the middle, I call it the hour line, I divide an hour into two hours. I call them the minute line for the other lines, one hour, I divide it. It’s sixty minutes."
"As for the usage. Very simple. When you need to know the more accurate time, put the timing stick in the water, stand it upright, reach the bottom of the jar, then take it out, and see where the water mark on the timing stick is. The specific time is up."
"Yun, you are amazing. Although the name of dividing time is a bit hard to remember, it is already very good."
Zhu Xiang Fengyun cast a look of worship, obviously convinced by his clay pot timer.
"Nothing, I just like to be blind. As long as you like to use more brains, you can do it, everyone can do it. I believe you."
"I will definitely work hard."
Bamboo nodded heavily, his face firm.
"Bamboo, have you remembered how to use the timer?"
"Yes. Yun, don't you..."
Bamboo seemed to have guessed something, his eyes lit up suddenly, and his body trembled.
"Bamboo, you are a smart person. You guessed it. I gave you this clay pot timer, and you will time it from now on."
"Yun, don't worry. I must take good care of it."
"It is not enough for you to keep it. You should report the time every hour so that everyone knows what time it is. Well, let me talk about my thoughts. When the sun rises above your head, you can write it down as At twelve o'clock, the rest of the time, and so on. You try to do it first. If you are done well, I will tell Wu truthfully and let him reward you."
Before the words were over, the other children cast envious glances at Zhu.
To be rewarded by witches, but what they dream of, even if the reward is relatively modest, it is a kind of supreme glory.
But they didn't dare to express their dissatisfaction too much. They already knew that Feng Yun and Wu Wu had a very close relationship, and they didn't dare to offend him too much.
