Tong Chen continued to practice drilling wood for fire, and the wooden stick spun rapidly between his hands, and it didn't take long for both hands to start to become red and painful.

Green smoke rose several times, but the toilet paper placed under the wooden board showed no signs of ignition, and at this time, Tong Chen really realized the difficulty of drilling wood for fire.

Putting down the drill stick in his hand again, Tong Chen looked at the tool in front of him and tried to think about the reason for the failure.

The pressure exerted on the drill rod is certainly not significant.

But once Tong Chen pressed his feet or knees against the wooden stick, due to his awkward posture, his movements in his hands would also become unsmooth.

Could it be that I'm in too much of a hurry and the time is too short?

Tong Chen sighed a few times in the palm of his hand, and rubbed his hands back and forth together.

Put it into the small groove again, quickly twisted it, I don't know how long later, a few wisps of green smoke came out again, but Tong Chen didn't stop in a hurry like the previous few times, the movements in his hands became faster and faster, and the smoke came out bigger and bigger.

When Tong Chen was about to hold on, he quickly picked up a ball of ignite under the wooden plank, held it in the palm of his hand and carefully blew it.

The igniter was some flammable grass, and Tong Chen put a small ball of toilet paper in the middle of it.

A small spark was burned by Tong Chen's blowing, and the green smoke became bigger and bigger, and then the fire light came out, and the velvet quickly burned violently.

Tong Chen hurriedly threw out the ball of fire in his hand.

It succeeded, and after dozens of failures, Tong Chen finally succeeded.

Wang Mengni is actually not only from the same village as Tong Chen, but also the two also went to elementary school and junior high school together, and then Tong Chen left the village when he was in high school, and the two were separated.

The system did not release the task as last time just a few days later, which made Tong Chen, who was always in a nervous mood, also relaxed a lot.

The communication between Wang Mengni and Tong Chen has also been much closer, and the two have been very familiar with each other, although they have often lost a lot of life over the years, but they have not been communicating for long, and they are quickly familiar with each other.

Wang Mengni was very envious of Tong Chen's previous work in the city, and when the two met, Wang Mengni would always ask such and such questions, and Tong Chen would also talk to her about being together when she was a child, catching grasshoppers together, playing at home, chatting happily, and both of them laughed more than once.

Wang Mengni is a rural girl, and her personality is not very cheerful, and Tong Chen is also a relatively introverted person, neither of them is a good talker, it is good to have a topic to discuss together, otherwise, the atmosphere will become very embarrassing.

Tong Chen is not only a man, but he also came out of the city, so naturally he can't be lower than Wang Mengni.

So whenever he was embarrassed, he had to be the one who resolved the embarrassment.

The rest of Tong Chen's spare time is to use the materials he found on the Internet to learn how to survive in the wild, and when he needs to actually do it, he practices several times in a row until he masters it.

If you give something, you will get something, and similarly, his survival in the wild has improved a lot compared to before.

Tong Chen knew that she didn't have a smartphone when he communicated with Wang Mengni, so Tong Chen also went to the county seat to buy a mid-range mobile phone of two or three thousand.

With a mobile phone, the communication between the two is more convenient, and the relationship has become closer.

But Tong Chen did not expect that a crisis was coming.

There is no wall in the world that does not show the wind.

"Lao Wang's family, Lao Wang's family, it's terrible, something big has happened, what do you see I see?", an aunt with a red headscarf on her head and a fat figure shouted loudly before she entered the door.

"Something happened, what a fuss," muttered a middle-aged woman with an equally stout figure and squinted eyes in the courtyard to the red-turbaned aunt.

Aunt Red Turban clasped her hands in front of her chest: "It's about your daughter", she deliberately didn't finish her words at one time.

"What's wrong with my daughter, is there something wrong?", Li Jiafang was also interested.

The rural yard is not very large, and the conversation between the two also fell on the ears of Wang Mengni and her father Wang Fugui.

Wang Fugui is not tall, and his figure is also very thin, as soon as he went out, he held his mouth with his right hand and coughed, and his chest was accompanied by heavy breathing.

Wang Mengni didn't come out, she quietly hid the mobile phone that Tong Chen gave her, and walked to the door to listen carefully to the conversation in the courtyard.

She was a little apprehensive...

"It's not a big deal to cause trouble, it's just that I passed by the village yesterday and saw your daughter and the son of Lao Tong's family face to face, and they held hands", the red turban aunt looked like a gossip.

Li Jiafang raised her eyebrows and shouted, "What?"

Before she could finish speaking, Aunt Red Turban asked again, "Don't you know?

Wang Mengni in the house stumbled and almost fell, and her palms were already oozing sweat.

Wang Fugui also endured no coughing, and stood there listening to the conversation between the two.

"I thought they were in love", the red turban aunt ignored Li Jiafang and added.

"What you said is true?", Li Jiafang said angrily.

Aunt Red Turban let go of her hands and crossed them on her waist again: "Why am I lying to you again, this is what I saw with my own eyes, in fact, I want to see it, they are also quite suitable, and it is not bad to get together, although the son of the old boy family has not found a job for the time being, but after all, he graduated from college."

She said that, but no one had heard the meaning of the joke.

Li Jiafang turned to look at the room and roared angrily: "Nizi, get out of here, I want to ask you well today."

Wang Mengni sat on the edge of the bed, holding the sheets tightly in her hands, her heart was sad, it was over.

She knows her mother's temper, and she usually does something wrong, and she is not scolded.

She didn't want to go out, especially when there were outsiders who didn't think it was going to be a big deal.

"Can't you hear me, get out," Li Jiafang yelled several times in succession.

Wang Mengni insisted and still didn't come out.

Wang Fugui opened his mouth to persuade on the side.

"Are you deaf and can't hear what I'm saying?" Li Jiafang was like Zhang Fei possessed, scolding while walking, came to Wang Mengni's door, kicked the door open, and walked into the house.

Wang Mengni was so frightened that she had already lowered her head, and her face was a little pale.

"Smack"

A slap was thrown on Wang Mengni's face, and the left side of her face instantly turned red.

Aunt Red Turban and Wang Fugui didn't know when they were already standing at the door.

Li Jiafang stood in front of Wang Mengni and looked down, and the piercing scolding sounded again: "Is what people said right, did you hold hands with that kid from Lao Tong's family and secretly get along?"

"Ahh

Wang Fugui walked into the house and looked at Li Jiafang and said, "Change your stinky temper, why did you beat the child again."

Wang Mengni covered her left face with her left hand, and was silent and didn't say anything.

"Say!, can't you hear, I'll ask you something", Li Jiafang ignored the words of the two, stared at Wang Mengni with a fierce look in her eyes and shouted, the words fell, raised her right hand and prepared to hit someone.

"I didn't," Wang Mengni replied in a low voice, covering her face and raising her head.
