Chapter 154 Surprise
The successful hatching of this little dinosaur really made the tribe lively for a while. Wang Lang carefully checked the other dragon eggs, but there was no sign of hatching. He couldn't help but worry. If only one hatched, it would not be of great effect on himself, because he could not guarantee that this dinosaur could successfully live to adulthood.
"You can't just have one dragon egg, so the hatching rate is too low." Wang Lang said intimately.
In addition, Wang Lang could only observe these dinosaur eggs for a few days. Even if the dragon eggs in the same nest have different hatching times, theoretically, there will not be too long a difference. If there is still no response after a few days, then it can be confirmed that those eggs are dead eggs.
After the little dinosaur was full, he lay on the ground and fell asleep gradually. Everyone looked at it for a while and then went back to rest. Although everyone was very excited, there were still many things to do tomorrow, and it was impossible to stay here all night.
The next day, Wang Lang arranged a few women to take care of the little dinosaur, and they continued to make molds. In one morning, more than a dozen molds were completed.
The preparations for brick making were going well, and so far there was nothing too difficult.
In the afternoon, Wang Lang estimated that the charcoal had been almost burned. After a day of burning, the charcoal kiln supported by the mud had become very hard. You could hear the sound of the wooden sticks hitting it.
At high temperature calcination, Wang Lang estimated that the inside of the charcoal kiln had been potted.
Use a dagger to create a half-person-high entrance on the kiln wall. After savoring it for a while, the men cleaned the charcoal inside and put it in a rattan basket.
The charcoal burned this time filled more than 30 rattan baskets, and some unburned wood was also taken out. A large pile of wood was only a small part of it that was not carbonized. This time the fire can be said to be very successful.
With these charcoals, it will be enough to make pottery and copper smelting in the future.
Use the charcoal kiln as the top of the brick kiln, and the rest is to start digging.
Wang Lang chose a place and arranged three people to dig down the line he drew diagonally.
The rest of the people were making brick embryos. Wang Lang didn’t know what kind of soil to use for professional brick making, but now he could only use ordinary clay to make it.
Everyone carried baskets and rattan baskets to the river to collect soil. This time, Wang Lang decided that at least hundreds of bricks could be fired at a time. After the brick kiln was really fine, he would build two brick kilns according to this method, so that the bricks produced were barely enough.
The work of collecting soil is very tiring. Not only do the mud need to wet the soil, but also pick out the ginseng and small stones inside, trying to make the ginseng and less impurities.
It took half a day for everyone to get two tons of soil, which were piled up by people outside the tribal wall.
The excavation work was not going fast. The three of them worked for a whole afternoon before digging out a soil pit that was more than one meter deep and wide by one person. The digging soil would be picked out by stones and also the raw materials for making brick embryos.
In the evening, Wang Lang went to the egg hatching pit to observe the hatching of the dragon eggs, but there was no reaction. Wang Lang's heart gradually felt something bad.
After talking helplessly, Wang Lang came to the fence where the little dinosaur was closed. After eating and drinking, the little dinosaur lazily lay on the ground to rest. He heard someone approaching, he looked up and then lay down again. Now he had adapted to the existence of humans, thinking that these creatures were not threatening him, and food would be delivered to his mouth.
Seeing that the little ceratops were alive very healthy, Wang Lang's depressed mood was relieved a little, and he murmured to himself: "Little thing, you must live until you are adult. If all the eggs fail to hatch, you will have to rely on you for a long time."
The next day, people continued to be busy yesterday. After having this soil, Wang Lang craftsman divided into two groups, one group continued to collect the soil, and the other was carried by himself with the living mud. After wet the soil with water, everyone rubbed the mud as if they were dough. However, this method was too slow. Finally, everyone simply dug a shallow pit to put the soil in, poured it on, jumped into the pit and stepped on it with their feet.
After the mud was ready, Wang Lang asked someone to take the mold over, clean out a flat open space, and pull out a large piece of mud from the pit, and roll it into the mold in a ball.
Remove the excess and smooth both sides.
Just pour out the brick embryo and dry it and it will be considered finished.
After that, Wang Lang did not let the brick embryos get stuck in stones. He asked someone to lay a layer of hay on the flat open space. Even if these brick embryos get stuck in hay, they can be burned off when burning. There is no need to worry about this.
Everyone looked at Wang Lang's operations carefully and basically learned it once. This thing has no technical content and is completely physical work.
During this day, everyone made hundreds of bricks, and the progress can be said to be relatively slow.
At night, those dinosaur eggs still didn't respond. Wang Lang no longer had any hope in his heart. He could only see if that little ceratops could live to adulthood.
But the next morning, when people woke up from their sleep, they heard whimpering sounds from the hatching pit.
Hearing this voice, Wang Lang realized something and ran towards the hatching pit in ecstasy.
After arriving there, the scene in front of Wang Lang almost grinned at the corner of his mouth.
Five or six little dinosaurs in the fence were walking uneasy inside the fence, looking at the more and more humans facing this side in fear.
"Lang, so many hatched this time." Fanxing said in surprise.
Wang Lang was in a very good mood at this moment. He took Wang He from Fanxing's arms, teased him for a while, and made Wang He cry loudly before handing him over to Fanxing again.
"I didn't expect that so many hatched in one night. I thought that these could not be hatched. It's really a blessing from the gods!" Wang Lang said with a smile.
Although others have seen the birth of the first little dinosaur, there are so many this time, and they are also very excited. Although they cannot fully understand the benefits of intensive cultivation, they still understand the reason why there are more and more things.
More little dinosaurs say that they will say goodbye to hunger in the future. This is something closely related to their own life, so they will naturally be happy.
Wang Lang asked someone to carry out the hatched little dinosaur and lock it up with the previous little dinosaur.
The first ceratops seemed a little scared when they saw such a companion coming in, but not long after, curiosity drove it toward their own kind. After the initial panic, several small dinosaurs smelled each other and then became quiet.
