Yellow clay is generally the soil deposited on the Dahe ancient road, and it is the soil that was first used to make pottery in history.

Mu Feng originally thought about whether he could find some silted soil from the river, or even find some sandy mud to make some rough pottery, which would be better than storing everything in stone jars.

But I didn't expect to find yellow clay here!

Yellow clay can be used to make black pottery. Black pottery is hard, but the skin is black and shiny without enamel.

That is to say, the pottery made of yellow clay is not only portable, but also can be used to hold water, ensuring that the water source will not be polluted.

Seeing Mu Feng's surprise, the people around came forward and asked, "Great Chief, have you found what you want?"

"I found it!" Mu Feng laughed loudly, grabbed a handful of yellow clay from the pit, and crushed it with his hands, "That's the kind of soil!"

Ming Guang was full of doubts: "What's the use of this soil? Our tribe also has a lot of soil. Why do we have to come here to look for it?"

Mu Feng shook his head: "It's different! That's fine, now quickly dig up the soil, it will be useful to bring it back!"

"yes!"

So Mingguang took the lead and started digging the soil one by one with bone knives.

Because someone was digging the soil, Mu Feng just took advantage of this moment to walk around.

Considering that the surrounding grassy beach was too deep, no one knew if there were any wild beasts nearby, and he didn't dare to go far, so he pulled the shovel around to see if he found anything.

Unexpectedly, he actually discovered by accident that a familiar-looking plant was exposed in the grass.

"Cress?" Mu Feng was stunned for a moment, looked carefully at the leaves, and then at the root, and found that this plant, which was half a meter long, was really cress!

It's just that the leaves of this cress are smaller than in memory, but the rhizome is much longer!

"It was a worthwhile trip!" Mu Feng laughed strangely, "Wild cress was a rarity in the previous life!"

He stretched out his hand to tear off the piece of cress, put it in front of his nose and smelled it, and the smell was indeed unique to cress, and it was very strong.

"There must be more than one cress!" Mu Feng pushed aside the grass by the river again, and found a small piece of cress!

"Haha!" Mu Feng laughed, "Not bad, there is something to eat on the recipe!"

Although cress has the word "water" in its name, it can actually grow in places with little water.

It's just that the rhizomes of cress will not grow very long, but the leaves will be very lush.

But cress is born with rich flavor of leaves and good taste of roots, which are Mufeng's favorite.

The moment he saw the cress, he decided to transplant the cress to the tribe.

You should know that the transplanting of cress is also very simple. It is similar to a bamboo. As long as one root is transplanted, many trees can be derived.

This small piece is enough to eat a meal of stems and leaves, and then the rhizomes are transplanted to the tribe.

Just do it, he picked up his shovel and started digging the cress, and soon dug a lot.

Mingguang and the others also dug a lot of yellow clay.

"Great Chief!" Ming Guang gestured to Mu Feng, "The animal skin bags I brought are all filled with soil, shall we go back now?"

"Well, go back!" Mu Feng nodded, used his own back basket to pack the cress and carried it on his back, then got up and went back.

A group of people were carrying yellow clay on their backs, and they all looked at each other with strange expressions, feeling quite helpless.

They are all members of the hunting team. They used to go out to hunt for food, but now they are digging the soil here. I really don't know what the big chief is thinking.

But after several huntings, they also knew that they didn't understand what the great chief did, so they just had to do as required.

At least so far, the warchief hasn't let them run in vain.

And they didn't expect the trip to be so smooth this time. When they came to the river, they just dug some soil and went back.

A group of ten or so individuals carefully returned by the same route.

This road is the "safest" route they have found many times when they fetched water before - there are many grassy beaches nearby, and no large beasts appear here.

It was smooth sailing when I came here, which also shows this point.

It's just that unfortunately, it didn't go so smoothly when I went back.

Ming Guang, who was walking at the front of the line, suddenly stopped, signaling everyone to stay put, and then he slowly squatted down, listening to the sound with his ear on the ground of the grassy beach.

"Huh?" Seeing this, Mu Feng's heart tightened.

He had learned about the dangers of the wilderness in his previous life. Even in the modern age where wild animals are rare, it is still very dangerous in the deep mountains and grasslands.

What's more, it is a primitive society right now!

And the people around him all squatted down at this time, carefully put down the yellow clay on their backs, and picked up bamboo javelins in their hands.

Mu Feng frowned, followed by putting down the basket, picked up the shovel, and stood ready.

Suddenly there was a "rustling" sound from around, obviously something was running in the grass.

"What is that?" A question arose in Mu Feng's heart.

At this time, Li Hu turned his face to look in one direction, stretched out his hand and pushed aside the grass in front of him silently.

Everyone looked along the gap he opened.

With just one glance, everyone was shocked, including Mu Feng!

Because not far from the gap, a huge boa constrictor with its head held high was swimming fast in the meadow like a yacht.

Although separated by a certain distance, Mu Feng still felt that the python's head was half the size of a human!

Based on this inference, this python may not be as simple as six or seven meters!

"Titan python?" The first word that popped up in Mufeng's mind.
