Chapter 18

"Nail!" another pick hit the hard rock.

Granite blocks fell.

A hole the size of a fist was exposed.

Tang Zheng strengthened his strength and continued to expand the hole.

Until the black hole that can hold a person to drill in is revealed.

Tang Zheng took the torch and explored the inside of the cave.

The flames lit up the darkness.

This is a closed cave!

After millions of years of movement of the rock mass, some originally gully terrain was covered, but it was not completely filled, forming this kind of hole in the hole.

Because its interior is hollow, rainwater infiltration will have oxidation reaction with bedrock.

In other words, it is easier to produce some metal ores.

Tang Zheng didn't worry, but first threw a small stone inward.

Although he can stand where he is now, the hole in the hole is not necessarily.

If there is a 100 meter deep pit, you will die suddenly if you go in.

Fortunately, the stone gives the feedback sound of landing almost instantly.

Tang Zheng then settled down.

"Seek wealth and honor in danger!" gave himself a pep talk, and he carefully drilled in.

Where the torch reached, the nearby walls were printed red.

But they are all made of granite, which is no different.

"Eh?"

Suddenly, Tang Zheng made a sound in surprise.

"Is this..."

His breathing became a little short and he looked closer at the torch in his hand.

Under the light of the candle, Tang Zheng saw what was in front of him and said it was a mine. It was not as hard as a mineral just looking at it.

But it's mud. It's more strange than mud.

If we have to make an analogy, it is more like the reinforced concrete blocks everywhere on the construction site after the illegal buildings are demolished.

The overall color is dark gray, just like dried charcoal.

"Coal mine?" Tang Zheng thought to himself. He touched a little and opened the atlas for identification.

[clay (ordinary grade)]

[attribute: one of the main components of geology]

[Description: without it, any life will disappear]

[Ding! Congratulations on completing the task 'mining ore'! Neolithic progress (3 / 4)!]

Tang Zheng was overjoyed.

I wanted to do the mining task.

I didn't expect to dig out the clay directly.

Moreover, clay was also one of the minerals, which surprised him.

Now the pottery has landed, killing two birds with one stone!

Unfortunately, mining still failed to unlock the world for the first time.

It seems that there are always people who go directly to mining when they don't do their jobs and are still rich.

However, the pottery Tang Zheng is confident to win the world's first.

Now more than 95% of human beings are running around for a living, and the remaining 5% of people who don't worry about food and drink, or elites, may have spare time to think about other things.

But they need at least one kiln to make pottery, even an earth pit kiln, which has to be built for a long time.

And you just need to throw it into the synthesis platform.

Without a word, he directly buttoned down all the clay of one wall.

He turned around with a torch again.

Tang Zheng accidentally identified some iron ores, but the quantity was not large.

And as far as his tools are concerned, it is impossible to mine.

He turned back to the cave door and made a rattan basket. When he came back, he threw all the clay into the basket.

I thought this basket of clay would be very heavy, but Tang Zheng felt the weight on his back.

Unexpected lightness.

These 11 points of strength are really not in vain. My whole body is full of strength.

He added several pieces of granite to the basket. Tang Zheng returned to the wooden house and began to burn pottery!

————

"The origin of ceramics dates back to a very early period.

It was a stormy night. A group of primitive people could not go out hunting, so they had to stay in a small broken wooden house and boast.

It rained and it was cold, but it was good to light a bonfire.

When everyone was tired of talking, they fell to the ground and were ready to go to bed.

But a primitive man who was good at finding fault suddenly found that the earth near the extinguished campfire was harder?

In this way, pottery was invented. How about human beings? "

"Meow..." Xiao Ye lay lazily on the ground, put his two front paws together and shouted weakly.

It always feels whether the human in front of it has a serious disease.

As soon as I came back, I was happy and announced to myself that I had found a big baby.

The result is a pile of broken earth.

What's the use of telling me this to a cat.

Can I applaud you?

To break the sky is to break the earth!

Xiao Ye yawned and was about to sleep in the afternoon.

Suddenly, his eyes straightened.

It saw the silly human in front of it, like a magic trick, turning a pile of earth into disappear.

After a few seconds, when it was taken out, it suddenly turned into a small dark brown disk.

Eh!?

What kind of magic is this!?

"Meow..."

Xiao Ye had never seen such a magical thing before, and his curiosity prompted him to come forward with a small head.

Stupid human, you have successfully attracted the attention of Ben Meng meow. Come on, let meow Kangkang, what are you doing.

"This is the pottery I just mentioned to you." Tang Zheng saw Xiao Ye coming up curiously, stretched out his hand and scratched his head, and gently tapped the dish mouth with his fingers.

There was a crisp 'jingle' sound.

"This thing is used to hold things. It will be very easy to use. First, it can isolate bacteria. Second, porcelain is cold. It is used to hold food and can delay the rate of decay."

Tang Zheng doesn't care whether Xiao Ye listens or not.

A person who stays in the wilderness for a long time will be swallowed up by loneliness.

Over time, maybe there will be nerve problems.

Now he has a partner who can talk. Although he can only meow, it is more or less a comfort.

meanwhile.

The system prompts that the sound effect is finally late.

Several in succession.
