After listening to the words of the original girl, and then turned back to smell the smell of barbecue from outside the cave, the thief turned around and asked the original girl: "Old sister, do you want to eat cooked meat?"

The primordial girl was immersed in the smell of fragrant meat, and when she heard the words of the thief, she nodded blankly: "I think, but the sacred flame can only be used by the clansmen above the elder, and if other clansmen use it, they will be usurped and driven out of the tribe, and no one will use fire." ”

Ji Thief thought for a while and said, "In this way, you come to collect firewood, and leave the matter of lighting the fire to me, how about it?"

Facing the confident gaze of the thief, the primordial girl thought for a moment, then nodded sluggishly, and then stood up and walked out of the cave.

After the primitive girl left, the thief lowered his head, thinking in his heart, it is necessary to make a fire and eat cooked food, whether the primitive girl is happy or not, in short, it is impossible for him to eat raw meat like these primitive people, and the ghost knows how many parasites in the raw meat are that kill people.

Not to mention this primitive society, even in the era of highly developed medicine, there are still a large number of people who lost their lives by eating sashimi platters. Therefore, this point is very important to the thief.

Just as the thief was pondering the question, suddenly, the crowd was in a commotion.

The thief came back to his senses and saw some primitive people discussing what he had just said about starting a fire.

One of them, a short-looking, sharp-beaked young man with monkey cheeks, stared in his direction and said loudly: "The sacred flame can only be created by a wizard, and even the five elders only have the power to use it. ”

"No, the warriors have subdued the beasts that have foraged in our tribe, and this is not a fake. ”

The young man spat out, "Phew, what a warrior." I think he's just lucky to get rid of the beast, and it's funny that he's really thinking of himself as a person, and thinking of getting his hands on the sacred flames. ”

An old man pulled the young man and motioned for him to speak quietly.

The young man struggled, stiffened his neck, and raised his voice a few more decibels: "What are you doing, am I saying something wrong?"

Ji Thief looked at the young man curiously, and said in his heart I shouldn't have provoked this guy, why did he target himself so much?

At this time, the father of the original girl came up to the thief and whispered: "That's the son of the rock family, Ah Niu, he may have seen that Xue was too enthusiastic about the warrior, so he said such a thing, warrior, don't be like him." ”

"Is Snow your daughter's name?" asked Ji Thief, puzzled.

Hearing his daughter's name, a happy smile immediately appeared on the man's face: "Yes, it's my daughter." ”

Ji Thief smiled and said, "A nice name, as beautiful as herself." ”

When the two of them were talking, the young man named Ah Niu was still shouting, and the whole person was like a clown.

At this time, the snow returned, and she reported a pile of firewood on the ground in her arms.

Seeing the snow, Ah Niu immediately closed his mouth, and at the same time asked Xue diligently: "Xue, are you tired, are you hungry, my food will be given to you." ”

Who knows, Xue didn't even look at Ah Niu, but just asked Ji Thief wholeheartedly: "Warrior, are these enough?"

Ji Thief nodded: "Thank you Xue, don't call me a warrior in the future, just call my name, my name is Ji Thief." ”

Xue stood in place and was stunned, still not figuring out how the thief knew his name.

Ignoring the snow in a daze, Ji Thief took the firewood and built it one by one, making it into a tic-tac-toe shape.

All the primitives were watching, and they wanted to see how the thief made the fire.

Ah Niu, who had eaten a deflated meal in the snow, hugged his shoulders and said in a scathing tone: "Look, I'll just say that he is a liar, really, how can ordinary people make a fire, that is a magical skill that only wizards have, don't look at it, let's eat our food." ”

Originally, the primitive people who were still a little curious turned around because of Ah Niu's words, and ate their own food, and no one looked at Ji Thief.

Except for snow.

She squatted in front of the thief with her legs crossed, watching the thief build up the wood one by one, and occasionally reaching out to help.

"Snow, aren't you afraid that I won't be able to make a fire?" asked Ji Thief.

Xue shook her head: "No, I believe that nothing can stump the warriors." ”

Listening to the girl's words that were almost confessional, the thief's face blushed for the first time.

Ah Niu, who had been staring at Ji Thief and Snow from a distance, clenched the meat in his hand hard, if the cat was still alive after that, let Ah Niu hold it like this, I am afraid that he would be caught to death directly.

Soon, a tic-tac-toe ladder of about fifty centimeters was erected, and the thief threw the remaining firewood and dead leaves into it.

Xue asked curiously, "Warrior, didn't you make a fire?"

Ji Thief didn't think about it and said: "In this way, the firewood is in full contact with the air, and it can burn better, uh, forget it, you can't understand it." ”

With a cute expression on Xue's face, Ji Thief stopped to explain, and took out something from his pocket that was only the length of his index finger.

"Warrior, what is this?"

"Lighters. Ji Thief said eagerly.

As he said this, there was a soft crackle in the cave, followed by a faint flame that danced softly in the air.

The nearest snow sat on the ground in shock, and stammered at the flame in the thief's hand: "God, miracle, miracle!"

Ji Thief was made to laugh and cry by Xue's reaction: "It's not a miracle, it's a lighter, a lighter." ”

The movement of the two people provoked all the primitive people to turn their heads to look, and when they saw the flames rise into the air, everyone reacted like snow, and sat on the ground in shock, so that the piece of meat in their hands fell to the ground without realizing it.

"Miracles!

For a moment, the cave was filled with the sound of praise.

The thief explained several times, and when he saw that the primitive people did not listen to him, and he still looked like a fanatical believer, he gave up the idea of wasting saliva, turned his head, lit the firewood, and lay on the ground and blew softly.

When they saw the flames gradually rising, the cheers of the primitive people became even more enthusiastic.

The crowd was cheering, but Ah Niu, who stared at the thief with gloomy eyes, and his gloomy expression of hatred was terrifying.

The thief took a piece of wood and skewered it on his own barbecue rack and roasted it on the fire, and he could still hear the sound of exclamation and drooling on the ground from the cave.

Ji Thief sighed, turned around and said kindly, "Otherwise, everyone will come over and roast together." ”

When the primitive people cheered in unison, and when they were about to rush over, on the other side, Ah Niu spoke in a strange way: "His flame is not a holy fire given by the wizard, it is an evil fire, and the evil fire can't bake food, so don't go." ”

As soon as Ah Niu said this, the primitive people stopped and no longer stepped forward, but watched with a wait-and-see attitude, although with the smell of barbecue, their saliva flowed more.

They didn't dare to come up, and the thief didn't bother to greet them again, after all, the fire and barbecue were for themselves, not for the benefit of the public.

Reaching out and knocking the barbecue, Ji Thief felt that it was almost there, so he handed it to Xue who had been waiting next to him: "Taste?"

Xue happily took it, and when she opened her mouth to eat, she heard a sound of drinking.

"Snow, don't eat it!"

Looking back, he saw Ah Niu running over, and he shouted while moving: "The food baked with the evil fire is undercooked and cannot be eaten!"

However, before his words could land, the snow had already bitten down, and in the expectant eyes of everyone, she covered her mouth and whined.

Ah Niu angrily rushed to the thief: "It's all you, it's all you who roast meat with evil fire, you are going to harm the snow!"

Ji Thief didn't finish speaking, while Xue swallowed the cooked meat in his mouth hard, and shouted happily: "It's really, so delicious!"

Ah Niu, who was dragging the thief, was stunned when he heard this, looked back at the snow, and muttered, "But the snow, you just now..."

Xue looked at Ah Niu, who was dragging Ji Thief, dissatisfied: "Just now, the food was too hot just now, what are you doing?"

Ah Niu hurriedly let go of his hand, and said with a panicked expression: "No, no." ”

Ji Thief glanced at Ah Niu and ignored him, picked up a piece of meat and roasted it on the fire, and muttered to himself: "I'll just say, it's all fire, and it can't happen if it's undercooked." ”

As the thief's words fell, Ah Niu's face changed color, as ugly as eating a fly.

"Oh!"

A uniform cry sounded in the cave, and all the primitive people ran over with their own meat: "Roast, roast, we want to eat roast!"

The ox who seemed to be standing on the same place was knocked to the ground, and everyone gathered in front of the fire, and the firewood that was picked up from the ground and brought back from the snow was skewered on the barbecue grill and roasted on the fire.
