As we all know, Momazai in the village said that Guzi is a sustainable and clean energy source. First of all, how to light a fire in primitive times? Then, you only need to grab a Guzi first, and then push the Guzi towards the wood. Throw it in the pile....
Boom, the fire started. It’s very simple. Have you learned it?
Today is also the day for Gugu to hide in the fire pit!
The top of Gu Gu shines in the world, Gu Gu will have heaven if I am there!
Gugu was glowing in the fire, while Jiaozi was outside, grabbing a branch with his claws and constantly flicking the flames inside the earthen kang...
I believe people in northern Shaanxi later knew how to make the fire pit in Juzainong. The earthen kang, or fire kang, anyway means the same thing. It is composed of three parts: the stove, the kang body and the chimney... In very professional terms...ahem!
"The fire pit is a masonry construction facility with a width of about 1.7 to 2.3 meters and a length that depends on the length of the room."
Gugu did not understand the conversation between Yuzai and Ji Qi. Although the arrival of the person named Ji Qi made Mamazai very happy, this was not the first time Mamazai was happy. Guzi sat in the fire, and when When Ji Qi knelt down to check the mouth of the fire pit, he met Guzi's eyes.
Gujijiji?
Then Guzi heard it. The adult named Ji Qi stood up, looked at Jiao Zi who was following Mamazai, and said some shocking words to Mamazai in a shocked tone...
"Your earthen kang can actually be used as a kiln underneath, but why is there a little chicken helping you roast the chicken..."
"Ah, that's not roast chicken!"
Guzi waited until Mamazai and Ji Qi left, and then came out of the fire. Jiao Zi was at the side and did not follow him out. Guzi learned from Jiao Zi's mouth that the man named Ji Qi was Shu Jun's Bo.
Shujun's father was called Taixi, the younger brother of Ji Qi. He came from a tribe called "Zhou".
"Gugu?"
Shujun? It seems to have some impression...
Guzi recalled carefully for a while and then remembered that Shujun was the one who once had dinner with the clan leader and Mamazai, the man they respected very much!
Guzi suddenly took a sharp breath of air.
A person that even Mama Zai respects! Isn't his uncle more respectable?
Jiaozi told Guzi that Mamazai said that this man could grow many, many, many grains!
Gugu was confused and asked how many there could be.
Jiaojiao drew several big circles with her little wings!
There are... so many so many!
Gugu was surprised and very happy! In this case, there would be a lot of food to eat!
After Gugu and Jiaojiao chatted for a while, two little yellow chickens ran to the door and stared at Ji Qi from afar with a look of reverence. The latter felt the gaze and turned to look over. , but saw two chicks staring at him fiercely.
Ji Qi touched his beard and was very puzzled.
Are there rice grains in my beard?
Guzi was discussing with Jiaozi what nickname should be given to this chicken feed supplier.
I’ve decided, let’s call it “Ji Jiji”!

Of course, there is something interesting here. In the past, cave dwellings were often an important feature that appeared together with earthen kangs in northern Shaanxi. But does anyone know who developed the cave dwellings?
Yes, it's Ji Qi...which was invented by "Bu Kiln", the son of "Houji".
Bu Yao was the son of Hou Ji. He served as a farmer in the early Xia Dynasty and inherited his father's position. Later in his later years, he left the Xia Dynasty when Taikang lost the country and took the Zhou tribe to live in the Qingyang area of Gansu Province. , which is the easternmost part of Gansu Province and the place where the three provinces of Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningxia meet. History books say that he "moved between Rong and Di".
Therefore, Yu Zai invented the earthen kang, and Ji Qi happened to come over to discuss matters about food. This was indeed a wonderful thing for Yu Zai.

At night, the light snow has stopped, but the temperature has been maintained at a low level. The Luonan area is okay. If it is the Taiyuan area, the temperature difference between day and night will be much greater.
Gugu was in front of the Tukang, and the flames illuminated half of Gugu's body.
Tukang was promoted, and everyone gathered near Yu Zai's house. Xiong Tao was bragging, saying that this thing was actually no different from a stove, and he could copy it with just a few clicks. Going back to the construction site, everyone This thing can be used in any work shed.
Gugu, who lit the earthen kang, was loved by every leader. Soon, someone carved a wooden sign with the image of Gugu on it.
This winter, a little yellow chicken is here to bring warmth to the world.
Gugu heard about it. It seemed that Mamazai called himself Kitchen King Gu?
Although he didn't know what it meant, Gugu could see that there were wooden signs of Gugu hanging in front of each shed, and some even had two wooden signs of Jiaojiao and Gugu, which made Jiaozi very happy. , when walking, he always walks with the general’s belly held out.
Light snowflakes began to fall outside again, but in this cold winter, there were earthen kangs and steamed buns. People were smiling, and their eyes widened when they saw Maizi. Yu Zai also found a little feeling of celebrating the New Year during this period. It's just a pity. If I had known about it earlier, I would have called Mr. Geng Liang, brought those animals, and killed some pork to reward everyone.
Later, in order to have a sense of ritual and to seek good fortune, just like burning tortoise shells with flames and praying to the gods for a good harvest in the coming year, everyone built stoves and pits in their work shed areas. , they would ask two little yellow chickens to "fire" for them.
Gugu puffed out his chest and Jiaojiao puffed out his belly. Two little yellow chickens swaggered into a large earthen house. People gathered around. Gugu and Jiaojiao chattered something, and then Jiaojiao said something. Jiao started to take a branch and sprinkle water on the spot, swinging it. Many people didn't understand, but Ji Qi saw it and laughed immediately!
"Shenbeixing!"
Yes, the weird dance performed by Jiao Jiao and the behavior of sprinkling water with tree branches were exactly the "God's Journey to the North" that his nephew Shu Jun sang when he prayed for Emperor Fangxun.
This ballad is a sacrificial ballad. It hopes that the "Chishui Women's Offering" will not inflict the suffering of drought on the Central Plains. The "ritual" performed by Gugu and Jiaojiao seems to be just a hope that the pit "will not catch fire." "That's all....
"Chishui Nuxian, she doesn't protect her from everything!"
Jiao Jiao solemnly finished the dance, tidied his chicken buttocks, smoothed the chicken feathers, and then started to coo, stretched out his small wings, and rushed into the pyre with a bang. Then, the warm light came on, Gugu called out "chi", and at this time, the "firing" ceremony was completed.
"These two little things still have their own ideas!"
Everyone was surprised. After all, Jiao Zi showed his talent in dancing, and Gugu showed his talent in pretending to be a ghost...
Yuzai thought, if these two little guys run away from home and go to Egypt one day, they will definitely live a very prosperous life...
Great Gugu, protect everyone in the new year!
This winter, there are two light bringers on the move.
Gugu is holding the charcoal ash, Jiaojiao is holding the branches, and the two little yellow chickens are running back and forth in the shed area of the earth house, swaying, bringing warmth and light to every household!
