Chapter 4 Manual Lighting Method
After Nina left, Leah wandered around wondering what the beast caught in the so-called trap looked like, why it made a mouse-like sound, and why it was called a "demonic" beast, all of which brought her a strong curiosity. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
It's the desire to explore. "Go and see, go and see" kept echoing in her head like a spell, as if an angel was licking her ears in her ears, as long as she followed Nina, she would find something more magical and fun.
However, she thought of what Nina had said to her before she went into the grass.
Is the flat ground safe here?Leah looked in the direction of Nina, which was overgrown with weeds and completely invisible to the inside, and naturally felt a little worried that the person she had just met was out of her sight.
Leah's first arrival in this world, she was very unfamiliar with this place, she didn't know anything, she recalled some special scenes she had just seen, such as the golden horse, which could leap from her head and cross a distance of tens of meters, this jumping ability was incredible!
This is completely beyond the previous common sense, in Leah's image, the horse's jumping power is two meters high, at most a distance of ten meters, but this golden horse is more than twice the value.
The animals here are actually monsters, so what about the people here?magician?magic?Leah touched her chin, in fact, these don't need to think too deeply, as long as they are constantly in contact with the outside world, they will naturally become clear and clear.
Leah shook her head, returning her thoughts to Nina, she thought back to the heroic appearance of the black-haired girl before she walked into the grass, holding a dagger in her hand, with a confident face, hearing the cry of the monster gradually faint, and her eyes flashed from time to time, which all revealed her confidence, as if everything was in her hands.
Besides, the beast's cry was clear, and it was not far from their ears, so the trap set by the girl's father should not be far away from them, and there was no need to go to Nina's side to join in the fun, she should be back soon.
Leah glanced at the bushes that had lost their tracks, and the gaps between their branches, due to the elasticity of the original branches, began to slowly close to the middle, covering the path that could only be passed by one person, and if she entered it, it was obvious that she would need to cut the path again.
Besides, Nina was wearing a magical garment that was about a head taller than her, but her garment was just enough to keep all the thorns out.
And she, if she entered, would be buried in the green bushes, with only a little forehead exposed.
Of course, she didn't have Nina's magical clothes, and even if the linen coat was thick enough to resist the attack of the bushes, she would not be able to walk through the dense bushes unscathed, and her face and head would be scratched. What's more, the situation behind the bush is also an unknown area, and Leah doesn't want to take this risk.
Leah glanced at the linen garment, which had been covered with many tears, and closed the gaps on it with her hands.
Taking a few steps back, even if I passed through this bush and got to Nina, I still didn't know anything about it, and I didn't carry any equipment, and my strength was only at the stage of a little girl. What can it help, maybe it's just a burden to go by yourself, it's almost the same to help, if you don't have a brain, it's not righteous and hot-blooded, relying on tenacious and unyielding consciousness to survive the difficulties, but to drag down the whole team.
Just now she was pulled into Nina's arms, she already had deep doubts about her ability, maybe when she lost her chastity, so it's better to be cautious and follow the command!
Leah settled down and put away her helplessness.
His hands were bored in his pockets, and suddenly his fingers touched a foreign object, which was the fully ripe green fruit that had just been put in his pocket. Leah pulled out the fruit and stared at it for a while.
Although this fruit is not as transparent as a smooth ruby, the thinness of its skin can be seen in the sunlight!
It's a pity that there is only the last red fruit, so I can only hope for plum to quench my thirst. Leah sighed, a fruit was the size of a baby's fist, and it was down in two or three bites. It's a shame to eat it all at once.
Eyes rolled. Something seems to have come to mind. Leah suddenly smiled, and her eyes turned into crooked crescents.
One by one, she picked up the green fruits piled together from the ground, and carefully wiped each one with her sleeve. They are carefully placed in the bag, and in order to prevent deformation under pressure, each fruit is added with some wild grass without large serrations, and they are placed in place.
Can this make those green fruits ripe?
Leah thought expectantly, stuffing the fruit into her pocket is for this, as the knowledge she originally mastered, adding some ripe fruits to the edge of the unripe fruit may have the effect of helping growth, if you can really induce so many green fruits, then wouldn't you have a bunch of these delicious fruits?
"I'm so smart. ”
While sorting out the green fruits, my mind thought about what Nina would be doing. She might bring some game, but what about the food of this world? However, the purpose of Nina's trip is obviously very different from what she had in mind, not to get wild game, but to find the magic crystal.
Leah is falling into fond memories.
In the place where she used to live, it was difficult for her to live without meat.
If you don't eat for a day, although the nutrition is there, you feel weak and can't lift your spirits.
So, most of her living expenses are used to buy some meat products.
And more meat is more expensive than vegetables, so that she is very poor in other aspects, and sometimes even can't even afford rice.
Still, she spends a lot of money on it, in her words, that is, it is better to have three meals a day without food than without meat for a day.
It's really to the point that I can't afford every meal, what if I still want to eat meat?
Then just eat a few less meals, anyway, you won't die of hunger.
She pondered it carefully for herself and thought decisively.
After tidying up the green fruit and wiping her mouth, Leah decided to make a fire before Nina came.
Looking around, she was the first to walk to the pile of branches she had picked up. Picked up the dead branches on the ground and looked at them carefully for a while.
In the pile of branches in front of her, very few branches have some holes that have been eaten by insects, and most of them are relatively intact, and Leah is deliberately looking for those branches that are completely dry and can burn when they encounter an open flame, and those emerald green branches that still have a little moisture, which are not easy to burn when encountering fire.
They require a large amount of flame, and the heat generated evaporates the water inside before they can burn, which is not suitable in the initial stage of fire. When she doesn't have any fire-making devices, the most convenient ones to make a fire are those dry branches.
However, Leah still left a few branches that were forcibly broken by the Golden Horse, and those branches were very tough, not easy to break, and were very useful at some times.
Manually drill wood for fire.
Leah recalled in her head that she had seen her survive in the wild.
She picked up some of the dried hay from the edge of the meadow, piled it underneath, and for save trouble, Leah simply spread out a branch with an insect hole.
He went to the side and picked up some stones, and piled up a stone wall to keep out the wind. After a lot of preparation. Put a sackcloth garment under the gills and step flat on both sides of the branches.
Adjusting her body to prevent the fruit in her pocket from breaking due to the pressure of crouching, Leah crouched on the deadwood stick in a very strange and unladylike position. But she didn't care.
I only felt a little stuffy under the sackcloth.
Wrap your palms in linen, insert the smooth sticks into the moth-boring holes of the dead sticks, and begin to rub them vigorously. Leah pondered that there should be a lot of wood debris in the holes of the dead wood sticks, which would quickly absorb heat and then burn under the violent friction.
"This kind of weather, it should be easy to catch, right?" Leah struggled to rub the stick, wiping her sweat from time to time, there were trees in the forest, it was quite cool, but after all, it was still summer, and it was hot as soon as she moved.
Although Leah has seen many operations, their skills are very skillful, and their hands are very fast, and the wooden stick rotates at high speed, and the wood chips are ignited at once, and then the fireworks are raised. So she always wanted to try, but in the city, she couldn't do it, and there was no need to do things that would be troublesome.
"I'm tired. I didn't expect to be so tired," Leah began to complain after less than a few minutes of drilling. The speed of the spinning stick in his hand also decreased significantly, but he could not see any smoke coming out of the stick.
"When there is smoke, it will be lit!" Leah silently kept cheering herself, "for the barbecue!" for the ......"
Leah began to complain that her hands were so painful, and when she was so tired, there were small noises coming from the dry moth-eaten branches.
Leah's eyes lit up, there was a play. I sped up my hand. A faint trace of cyan smoke filled the air.
"It's going to work!" Leah felt very excited, this was the first time she tried to drill wood to make a fire, and she actually succeeded in one time, how incredible it was, and she thought happily while rubbing: I heard that it actually takes ten minutes of drilling to burn?
Hey~ It's a pity that in front of my genius brain, this is too easy.
Look at me, I can get the fire out in a few minutes, and Leah can't help but be a little smug.
It's a pity that the dead wood branch didn't cooperate with her very much, and under the rapid rotation of the wooden stick above, it couldn't support it, and it snapped and broke into two sections.
Leah was dumbfounded for a moment, picked up the dead wood branch and looked at it carefully, where there were traces of burning on the section of the dead wood on both sides, but the hollow heart was drilled open, and the cyan fine ash floated out.
"What!" Leah stood up and threw the stick in her hand to the ground, the dead stick was fragile, and it was thrown hard against the stone, and it exploded into several pieces.
"Oh, no, I'm a quiet beautiful boy, be calm!" Leah said calmly as she said something she didn't understand.
She frowned, although she knew that dead sticks were easy to break, but theoretically, completely dry, non-damp branches were indeed very easy to start a fire, because the heat contact surface was large, there were natural fine debris, and oxygen was easier to enter. However, the inside of the insect-eaten sticks is eroded and rotted, and even the wood that has been dried and hardened is extremely fragile.
Leah looked at her red hands and sighed, she had indeed made a very unwise decision.
Thinking about the taste of the barbecue, a hint of determination flashed in his eyes. The sticks were put back together, but this time, they were honestly using dry ordinary branches.
"For the barbecue!" Leah growled.
Just as Leah struggled to drill into the fire. There was a whispering sound in the grass. But she's in a Spartan state now. Ignoring the noise, she estimated that it was Nina's return, but that would have to be done first!
Sure enough, a dark-haired girl sliced through the grass and walked in from the outside, carrying some meat in her hands, the skin on which had disappeared, leaving only clean fine flesh.
Nina looked at the young child who was working hard, and struggled to rub the wooden stick in her hand, and immediately understood what she wanted to do, she smiled and said, "Sister Leah, look, I brought back the food!"
"Wait a minute, Miss Nina. I'm making a fire!" Leah said intently, her language fluencing and fast.
Nina was stunned and said, "Sister Leah, don't make a fire first, come here!"
"No, the food has to be cooked to be delicious!" Leah said without hesitation. thought that Nina told her to eat raw meat directly, which she couldn't stand it. Although she likes to eat meat, she doesn't like it raw.
"You don't have to light the fire!" it was Nina's turn to wonder why she had to use a special way to raise the fire and be so stubbornly persistent.
There were two crisp sounds, and the branch in Leah's hand broke again, and the values in her hand and under her were broken at the same time. She was stunned again.
"What's the matter!" Leah suddenly collapsed, and stood under the big tree with a miserable face, this is not such a play, it can't light a fire at all, and even the branches will be broken!
Nina stepped forward, comfortingly touched Leah's head, straightened her silver-white hair, and said slowly: "Sister Leah, in this secluded forest, in fact, the branches of the trees absorb cold water from the ground, and the branches are filled with ice water all year round, so their toughness is much better than ordinary branches, and they will feel a strange coolness when they are pumped on the body." ”
"However, once this kind of branch is cut off, the water inside cannot be replenished, and it will be evaporated, especially in summers like this, after the ice magic in the branch is exhausted, although it does not break at the touch of it, but if it is raised in temperature, and then use a little force, it will collapse, so your way of making fire is not suitable for use in this secluded forest. ”
Nina gave Leah a popular science lesson. Leah, who listened, was stunned.
"Then, that, Miss Nina, should, should, how to make a fire?" Leah became cringeful when she faced the girl, and asked weakly, in the end, she blamed others, and she really couldn't use common sense to do things here.
Nina rolled her eyes and said, "So you don't have to make a fire!"
I saw that she took out a test-tube-sized bottle from behind her waist with cork stuffed on it. Seeing that Leah was staring at her waist with some curiosity, she turned around and twisted her slender waist.
Leah saw the girl's generous movements, and naturally her face was a little red-faced, but she still knew that there was an extra strap hanging from the belt behind Nina's back, and there were many bottles and bags, and they were carried in just the right position, which would not hinder running, side waist and other movements.
Nina shook the small test tube in her hand, bringing Leah back to her senses. Put it in front of her and open the stopper, and a simple small item inside made Leah speechless.
