C79 - Love Rival

Zhu Zhan and the others doubted their eyes.

Although these people hadn’t managed to create a single piece of whole pottery, they had still managed to create pottery shards.

Now that they had pottery shards, was genuine pottery really that far away?

They would definitely be able to create pottery after a few more attempts!

Zhu Zhan looked at the scattered bits and pieces of pottery in front of him and didn’t know what kind of expression he should show.

The people of the Beast God Tribe had said that pottery was very mysterious, even to the point of being a blessing from the Beast God, so the tribes had traded all kinds of precious things for pottery…

They had also researched pottery before, wanting to know how the Beast God Temple had made it. Yet as a result… Pottery was simply made out of mud that was kneaded into shapes and roasted in fire!

When the priest heard Zhu Zhan’s words, he picked up a piece of pottery shard and asked, “This is pottery?”

“Yes, it’s pottery that was shattered during the firing process… If it hadn’t broken apart, it would be pottery.” Zhu Zhan said. His gaze was complicated as he looked at Zhou Ji, “You… are you from the Beast God Temple?”

“No.” Zhou Ji said.

“Zhou Ji has always lived in our tribe.” Xiong Ye said.

Zhu Zhan’s expression was uncomfortable as he looked at Zhou Ji, “Are you really the Beast God’s messenger?”

He had also believed in the Beast God when he was a child, but he had lost faith after seeing the Beast God Temple’s actions and words. Now… He felt like he had to believe in the Beast God again.

Zhou Ji didn’t answer Zhu Zhan’s words. Instead, he looked at the priest and said, “Try making pottery with different types of mud. Try it a few times, and record the differences along with information on how big the flames were for each batch.”

“Yes, that’s the right thing to do. We have to find someone reliable to do this.” The priest agreed.

“Later, when you make pottery again, find a way to make the pieces smoother. You can try and turn it as you make it.” Zhou Ji thought of the pre-apocalypse pottery wheels from his world, which spun in order to make it easier to smooth out the surfaces of the clay. He didn’t know how to do something like that during this era, but he could give suggestions for the tribe to try out.

For example, they could use wood as a base and coil rope around it. The base would turn when the rope was pulled, or something like that.

The tribe could slowly study and learn these things.

After they had learned it and knew how to do it, the technology they had learned would belong to them. If they couldn’t learn it… Well, he had no other way. He couldn’t help these people forever.

Zhou Ji offered up his suggestions, then looked at Xiong Ye and said, “Xiong Ye, let’s go back and sleep!” It was already very late…

“Alright!” Xiong Ye agreed and happily followed Zhou Ji to leave. He even offered, “Do you want me to carry you on my back?”
