Chapter 874: Forging Meteorite Weapons Three-in-One



Looking at these more than 30 crude weapons made of meteorite iron, Han Cheng felt dizzy for a while, and suddenly the scene of the meteor shower he saw several years ago emerged in his mind.

I remember that after hearing me say that making wishes on shooting stars was quite effective, my silly wife, Sister Bai Xue, was still muttering about the meteor shower and saying she wanted to have a baby with me.

Then after a while, she became pregnant with Little Pea.

I remember that the meteor shower was moving from south to north, and these tribes came from the north, which is far away from my tribe. Could it be...

Could it be that these meteorites were brought by that meteor shower?

Han Cheng thought so, then smiled and shook his head.

There is no such coincidence in this world.

I saw a meteor shower, and then these meteorites that had not burned completely fell near this cave.

A few years later, the tribe that had obtained a large amount of meteorite iron used weapons made of these meteorite iron to attack their own tribe, but was easily destroyed by their own tribe, and took back the meteorite iron that had once passed over their tribe...

Just thinking about it makes people feel that this thing is impossible. It is really too magical.

Throwing all these messy thoughts out of his mind, Han Cheng looked at the meteorites with a bright smile.

No matter how that tribe obtained so much meteorite iron and made it into weapons, one thing cannot be changed, that is, all the meteorite iron now belongs to their own tribe!

With some meteorite iron, his tribe can make many fine weapons.

For example, knives, axes and other things.

Once successfully made, it can be passed down from generation to generation.

Before the tribe encountered iron ore and developed the technology to make steel, these weapons made of meteorite iron must have been the most sophisticated ones in the tribe.

After all, bronze has its material limitations.

Of course, an important prerequisite for it to be passed down from generation to generation is that the people in the tribe must not have the idea of ​​treating the dead as if they were alive, and the custom of lavish burials must not be allowed to arise in the tribe.

Not only is this useless, it will also cause a huge waste of resources and impose a considerable burden on the living.

As for the burial objects, some were completely buried and slowly merged with the soil, while a considerable portion of them became the preserve of tomb robbers.

Thinking about these things, Han Cheng began to take out these tightly bound crude weapons from the room, piled them in the yard outside, and then set fire to them.

The reason why he set fire to them was not because Han Cheng wanted to do something with them at such a high temperature, but because these weapons were tied very tightly and it was not easy to untie them one by one. It would be better to burn them directly and save effort.

As the flames burned, the wooden handles, vines and other things eventually turned into ashes, leaving only the black meteorite iron.

In the distance, people from the former Black Stone Tribe saw this scene from afar and were heartbroken.

Blackrock weapons!

That's a Blackrock weapon!

These were the Black Stone weapons that made them proud in the past. With them, they followed the leader to obtain a lot of food for the tribe!

Now it has been burned to ashes by the Son of God.

Fortunately, this person did not know the term "prodigal son" or its meaning, otherwise he would have attributed it to the Son of God who was said to be extremely wise without hesitation.

However, when his eyes fell on the bronze hoe in his hand, which seemed dazzling under the sunlight, all these thoughts disappeared in an instant.

The bronze hoe in their hands is no worse than the Blackstone weapons they are proud of in any aspect, and is even more convenient and easy to use.

And these are just the tools used by this tribe to hoe the fields. There is no need to mention how powerful and easy to use those tools specifically used for hunting and attacking enemies are.

It is certain that the Blackrock weapons will be able to completely crush them.

This tribe has so many good things, so it’s not surprising that they burned the Blackstone weapons.

He found a wooden stick and used it to dig out the thirty-six pieces of meteorite iron of various sizes that had been initially polished from the ashes. Han Cheng picked up his precious daughter and told the others not to touch the meteorite iron with their hands to avoid burning their hands. Then he went to look for his second senior brother.

The second brother wasn’t in a very good condition either, he was also yawning constantly.

Han Cheng didn't find it strange at all that Second Brother was in this state.

He and Wu Du only have one spouse and it is still like this, let alone Second Senior Brother who has three spouses at once.

Just thinking about this number, Han Cheng couldn't help but feel a pain in his back for his second brother.

"Wait, forge these meteorites and make some weapons and tools."

Han Cheng said to his second senior brother.

Originally, he wanted to let the second senior brother start forging it today, but after seeing the condition of the second senior brother, he secretly postponed the forging time.

After all, talent is the foundation, and the rest are just details. You still need to rest when it is time to rest.

While thinking this, Han Cheng suddenly remembered the good thing called wolfberry.

It's a pity that I didn't encounter it. Otherwise, every adult male in the tribe would make a few cups of hot water every day and drink it, which might greatly relieve fatigue.

"Son of God, don't you have bronze..."

After understanding Han Cheng's meaning, the second senior brother seemed a little puzzled and said.

With the continuous mining of the Tongshan copper mine, various bronze products continued to increase, and people in the tribe had a great liking for bronze.

I feel that if I have bronze, I can beat everything, and many things are not as good as bronze.

The second brother had seen these captured black stone weapons before, and waved them in his hands for a while, and felt that they were far less useful than the bronze weapons of his own tribe.

And it's too simple.

Han Cheng smiled. When the furnace temperature was not high enough and the iron smelting technology was far from adequate, ironware was indeed not as good as bronze, which was easier to cast.

For example, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, iron was called evil gold.

The Qin State, which swept across the six kingdoms, also used bronze weapons to defeat several other countries that used a lot of iron weapons.

But Han Cheng, who came from later generations, knew that steel would be the king in future development.

For example, in the Western Han Dynasty, with the advancement of iron smelting technology, the once glorious bronze civilization was gradually abandoned...

"These weapons are not useful because those people did not forge them well. Once they are forged well, the tools made from these meteorite irons will be more useful than bronze tools.

Not only is it stronger than bronze, it’s also sharper than bronze tools.”

Han Cheng explained to his second senior brother with a smile.

It is not surprising that the second brother has such an understanding. After all, the people in the tribe have all witnessed the good of Bronze.

They don't know, so just explain it to them.

After hearing Han Cheng's words, the second senior brother's attitude suddenly became very serious. He squatted down, picked up a piece of cold meteorite, and began to look at it carefully.

Second Brother, like everyone else in the tribe, believed very much in what Han Cheng, the Son of God, said.

Now, the Son of God told him that this seemingly inconspicuous stone, which the Son of God called meteorite iron, could be used to make tools that were more useful than bronze tools. That must be the case.

He needs to be treated well.

Thinking about this, the second brother couldn't help but feel excited.

Bronze tools are so easy to use, so how easy would it be to use tools made from this meteorite?

If I could make it myself, wouldn't the tribe have better tools? Wouldn't the tribe become more powerful?

After this thought came to his mind, the second senior brother became even happier, and even a little impatient.

"Son of God, how do we do this? Do we use a furnace to melt it like we do with copper and tin ingots?"

After looking at the heavy meteorite for a while, the second brother, who was itching to try it, couldn't help but ask Han Cheng.

Of course, this meteorite iron cannot be put into the furnace to melt. With the current technical conditions in the tribe, even ordinary iron ore cannot be melted, let alone this meteorite iron.

In fact, things like meteorites basically don't need to be melted.

Because when it is flying at high speed in the air, many of the impurities contained in it have been burned.

For the rest, you just need to use the furnace to heat them as much as possible and then forge them into shape.

No worse than tempered steel.

After listening to his second brother's words, Han Cheng recalled some of the things he had learned about meteorite iron, and then smiled and said to his second brother: "No need to melt it, we can't melt it now, just heat it up and use a hammer to hammer it into the shape of the tool we want."

Second Senior Brother is more experienced in such things. After all, when he was making iron bacteria, putting together some iron beads, and obtaining several pieces of iron tools, a large part of it was made by Second Senior Brother under the command of Han Cheng.

"I'm just going to light the stove!"

After hearing Han Cheng's words, the second senior brother suddenly became excited. He stood up from the ground suddenly and said he would light the furnace and start forging.

韩成忙将他拦住:“等到明天再做这些事情,今天我们都好好的休息休息,不然累坏了身子可就麻烦了。”

二师兄虽然想要立刻就做,但韩成这个神子发了话,也只能是将这个心思按下。

在这里停留了一阵儿,跟韩成一起将这些陨铁一一搬回屋子里之后,便过去察看很久很久都没有用过的打铁炉子去了。

神子只说不让今天用那些陨铁打造工具,但并没有不让自己查看炉子这些东西。

自己今天查看一下炉子,哪里不好用了就喊黑娃过来一起修补一下,然后再找来一些好木炭,把风咕噜也给准备一下。

这样等到明天一早,自己就可以用陨铁打造工具了。

而且,这些事情做起来,一点都不累……

二师兄的小心思韩成当然看的懂,对此他只是笑了笑,并没有加以阻拦。

这样的小心思,部落里越来越多人都能拥有才好……

就这样,小半日的时光悄然而逝。

在这段儿时间里,韩成除了做了这些事情之外,还通过询问巫、大师兄、白雪妹等留在部落里的人,了解了更多关于他离开之后,部落里发生的事情。

知道在他们离开部落的这一段时间里,除了发生了树皮带着大量的人过来攻打了自己部落之外,其余的并没有什么大事发生,一切都很安稳。

收割油菜,以及种植谷子、大豆等这些庄稼,都非常的顺利。

甚至于因为一下子多出来了这么多的成年奴隶、人手充足的缘故,今年还比预想之中多种植了七八十亩的谷子。

在得知了这些之后,韩成也变得更加安心了。

“我不在,你们做的很好。”

韩成笑着巫、大师兄等人再一次的进行肯定。

吃过中午饭,韩成终究还是扛不了,躺在炕上呼呼大睡起来。

经过半日的相处之后,小豌豆已经没有韩成刚回来的时候那样粘人了,在韩成呼呼大睡的时候,小家伙就跟部落里的其它的未成年人一起疯跑玩耍去了。

至于年纪要小上许多的小杏儿,则没有这样好的精神,脑袋枕在韩成的胳膊上,和韩成这当爹的一起呼呼大睡。

睡着的时候,不时还会有一些口水从嘴角流出,顺着韩成的胳膊留下……

“尿、尿……”

沉睡中的韩成被自家闺女的声音叫醒。

迷迷糊糊的睁开眼,明白了小闺女说的是什么之后,韩成赶紧抱着她下了炕,并找来尿盆……

怀里抱着小闺女,韩成使劲晃了晃脑袋,睡了一觉起来之后,整个人都显得精神多了。

也是这时候,他才意识到院子里特别的安静,连小小的未成年人们嬉闹的声音都没有听到。

怪不得后世的时候有人说,一个人独自居住的时候,最好不要在下午睡觉,因为醒来的时候,外面的那种安静,能够让你体会到那种仿佛是从灵魂深处散出来的孤独……

不过,这样的孤独自从来到这个时代之后,韩成就再也没有感受过,因为他有他的部落。

而且此时的他还怀抱着自家的小闺女。

在房间里又稍稍的待了片刻,感受了一会儿这午后的静谧之后,韩成抱着小杏儿除了房门。

下午时分的阳光斜斜的洒下来,已经没有那样灼人,院落之内基本上没怎么看到人。

人们这时候大多都到了院落外面去劳作了。

“成哥哥,你醒了?怎么不多睡一会儿?”

韩成抱着小杏儿出了房门没多久,白雪妹就从养蚕的房间之内出来,满脸欢喜的跑了过来,没有睡觉的她,看起来比韩成这个睡了午觉的人都要精神。

“已经睡好了,对了,小豌豆他们了?”

不知道为什么,此时此刻,看着自家媳妇脸上那灿烂的笑,韩成就隐隐约约的觉得有些腿软。

“你睡觉了,我就让他们到外面去玩了,他们这会儿应该在捉蚂蚱。”

白雪妹笑着说道。

韩成闻言心里一暖,伸手在这个越来越贴心的小媳妇脸上摸摸,然后跟他一起来到了养蚕的房间。

蚕室之中摆放着很多的架子,架上上面摆放着诸多簸箩一般的东西,里面养着的都是蚕。

走进房间之后,就能听到一片的蚕吃桑叶的沙沙声。

空气中弥漫着一些新鲜桑叶的味道。

经过十来年一代代不停的挑选、培育,如今这些蚕个头比之前大了不少,结出来的茧也比之前大了一些,不过这是一个长久的事情,还需要坚持不懈的持续下去。

不仅仅是养蚕,缫丝、织布这些也都有很长的路要走。

“走,跟我一起到外面去走走。”

陪着白雪妹一起给蚕添加了桑叶之后,韩成对白雪妹说道。

白雪妹就与韩成一起出去了,韩成怀里抱着小杏儿,白雪妹跟在他身边。

如今,随着部落里养蚕规模的不断扩大,以及部落人手的增多,养蚕的人也随之增加了,不再如同之前那样,仅仅只依靠白雪妹一个人。

而且现在这一批的蚕才只脱了一次皮,每日的进食量还没有达到巅峰,白雪妹跟着韩成离开之后,剩下的事情,另外两个女原始人完全忙活的过的,所以白雪妹这次变得很是干脆,韩成一喊,就听话的跟着一起出去了。

院落外围栽种的杏树,今年挂了很多的果,诸多的杏子挂满了枝头。

一些杏子的表面看起来已经微微泛黄了,再过上一段儿时间,就能开始摘着吃了。

不,现在就已经可以吃了。

因为跟在一旁的白雪妹,已经对着这些杏子伸出了罪恶的爪子,摘下几颗之后,用水洗了,用牙咬着吃的咔嚓咔嚓的。

不仅仅韩成怀里的小杏儿馋的直流口水,就连韩成也是忍不住跟着咽口水。

没办法,他如今算是被这个傻婆娘弄的对杏子有了心理阴影了,只要看到有人咔嚓咔嚓的吃杏子,就抑制不住的直流口水,感觉牙都要被酸倒了。

小杏儿则比韩成这个当爹的有气概多了,不仅仅馋的小嘴直砸,还伸出小手向白雪妹讨要杏子吃,不给还想要闹人。

这样过了一小会儿之后,白雪妹就拿着一颗啃了一半的杏子小杏儿嘴边送。

已经长出来了六颗牙的小杏儿,见好东西过来了,立刻就不闹人了,伸着脑袋往白雪妹递过来的半刻杏子上凑,看上去跟看到大燕子捕食过来,伸长脖子、张大嘴巴叽叽喳喳乱叫等待着父母投喂的小燕子非常的相似。

韩成本来想要阻拦一下的,但见到自家闺女这样迫不及待的样子,也就听之任之了。

不仅仅如此,他这个当爹的还非常贴心的将小杏儿往前移了移,好让她吃的更加实在一些,同时还双眼一眨不眨的看着,满脸期待的样子。

小杏儿涉世未深,懵懂不知,那里知道这当爹妈的险恶用心?见到好吃的到了嘴边,立刻就凑上去使劲的啃了一下。

虽然只有六颗牙,带这一下啃得还是很实在的,特别是她所啃得的位置,还是白雪妹将皮子啃去之后,余下的果肉了。

这一嘴下去,时间仿佛停滞了一般,满脸带笑的小杏儿,啃到青杏之后,脸上的笑容一下子凝固了,圆圆的眼睛变得更圆了,一脸懵圈的样子。

下一刻,小家伙的瞪的大大的眼睛,一下子紧紧的闭上了,整个人也如同触电一般的将脸从青杏上移开,嘴巴不断的咂着,脑袋使劲的摇晃着,两只小胳膊使劲的挥舞,小手无助的抓着,整个人都被酸成了表情包。

这酸爽的一幕,看的韩成这个当爹的咧开嘴嘿嘿嘿的乐个不停,白雪妹也在那里没心没肺的傻乐,只有小杏儿,经历了这样强烈的味觉冲击、稍稍的平静了一下之后,哇哇的大哭起来。

韩成一边晃着身子哄着小闺女,一边笑的停不下来。

这就是没有奶奶罩着的小孩子的无奈之处了,倘若奶奶在身边,敢这样欺负人,下一刻一脸怒容的奶奶就能拎着鞋底子抵达战场,并将坑孙儿辈的兔崽子,追赶的满院子乱窜。

哄好了被酸成表情包的小杏儿,这对无良的父母,继续乐呵呵的往前行走。

部落周围的田野里,第一批种下的谷子,已经快要达到膝盖的位置了,就算最晚种下的一批,如今也都已经能够淹没脚脖了,长势很是不错。

田野之中,有诸多的人在这里劳作,进行锄草等诸多事情,看起来很是赏心悦目。

这样看了一阵儿之后,韩成的目光落到了那些一对一分组的奴隶身上,心里有着一些想法开始浮现。

这次部落里新得到的这些奴隶,基本都是身体比较强壮的成年人,这说明在她们原先生活着的部落,肯定还有着不少的身体不太强壮成年人,以及诸多的未成年人存在。

For most tribes of this era, people who are not very strong are basically considered a burden. However, this is not the case in the Qingque tribe, because there are still many jobs in the tribe that can be done by people who are not very strong.

Lame, who has always been ahead of others in the tribe in carpentry and weaving, is the most inspirational person.

So Han Cheng was thinking at this time whether he should send someone to go back with some of these people and bring the rest of them to his tribe.

In this way, the population of his tribe will experience explosive growth again.

Moreover, they can also take a look at whether there is any meteorite iron in the place where they originally lived.
