Chapter 196: Making Charcoal

.. , the rules of survival on a desert island

"On the tree?" Wu Yicai quickly retreated, and turned to look at a big tree on the side, on which there was indeed a huge python coiled.

The python hung down from the fork of the tree, less than 2 meters away from where Wu Yicai was just now, and was almost touched by the python.

Being entangled by this big guy, he will suffocate to death in minutes, fortunately, there is Han Lingshuang's reminder, otherwise there will be big trouble.

"Wang~!" Wangcai kept roaring at the python on the fork of the tree, and it arched its body and grinned its teeth, revealing its sharp fangs.

Snakes have tree-climbing skills, and the huge python naturally has this ability, and the slender branches are bent a little by its huge and heavy body.

"We have a lot of people, and we have weapons, so when this guy climbs down, first nail his head to the ground with a pickaxe, and then use an axe to smash his head, preferably to cut off his central nervous system. Wu Yicai pulled Wangcai and Han Lingshuang back to a safe distance, holding the pickaxe tightly, staring intently at the python that was slowly climbing down.

He was waiting for the right time, and by the time the python climbed down from the tree, it must have been head down, and most of its body must still be hanging from the trunk.

At this time, he immediately stepped forward and pinned the head of the giant python to the ground with the sharp end of the pickaxe, and quickly ended its life while its largest weapon, the thick and long body had not completely descended from the trunk.

The python spat out the letter, and its brown eyes without any emotion stared directly at Wu Yicai and the others, but the python had a scar on one eye, obviously blind in one eye.

It seems that this guy is the python that wanted to climb into the shelter that night, and the damage to its head was also due to Wu Yicai, but it escaped last time......

This time, it's hard to fly!

The python was really slow enough to move through the trees, its head just touching the ground, but a heavy blow awaited it.

"Click!"

Wu Yicai held the pickaxe high, swung it hard, and pierced the head of the python as he wished, the skull was penetrated, and then nailed to the ground.

was smashed through the head, the python was still alive, and Wu Yi wanted to kill it in one go, but the body that was originally hanging on the tree fell down violently.

The python began to twist its body violently, its skin and flesh were very tough, and it was cold to the touch, and a radius of 7 meters was considered a dangerous area.

Wu Yicai quickly retreated, in case he was entangled by this guy, with his strength, he would squeeze his sternum bone and break it in more than ten seconds.

"Are you okay?" Han Lingshuang stroked Wu Yicai's arm with a worried expression.

"It's fine. Wu Yicai exhaled slowly, "The vitality of this reptile is strong, the head is pierced and still alive, if it were replaced by other mammals, it would have died a long time ago." ”

Snakes are worthy of being creatures of the same era as the dinosaurs, these creatures existed in the Cretaceous period, and the titan python at that time was very huge.

There are also studies that say that snakes and lizards are close relatives, but the two have many similarities, both are reptiles, both are egg-born, and both have common weaknesses, brain, heart, and central nervous system!

Belch...... In fact, the weaknesses of any creature are all three of the above.

"Look, its struggle is getting weaker and weaker!" Han Lingshuang pointed to the giant python that was struggling slowly on the ground, and now its entanglement became very small, and it looked like it couldn't use its strength.

The python did not break free from the pickaxe until the end, and the sharp iron tool nailed it to the ground, slowly oozing red and white liquid from the wound on its head.

"Its brain must have hurt. Wu Yicai smiled slightly, this time he did not take any risks in dealing with this giant python, it can be said that it was destroyed without damage.

The originally fierce and strong python gradually died, its abdomen was cut open, and it was thought that it was some animal remains that had been swallowed, but when it was cut open, it was found that it was not food.

"What are these things?" Han Lingshuang looked at the series of things that Wu Yicai dragged out with disgust, "It's disgusting!"

The internal organs of the python are a series of white, and there are many yellow balls attached to them, and there are many of them, at least 20 of them.

"This is a snake egg!" Wu Yicai was also a little shocked, there are really a lot of python eggs, "The python has a very strong ability to survive, and it lays so many eggs at one time, and if you put a pregnant female snake in the wild, this thing will really flood." ”

The entrails of anaconda are thrown directly into the sea and are not safe to be placed on land, and the smell of the entrails will attract predators with a keen sense of smell.

An unexpected exploration received a large amount of meat, this python is very huge, weighing about 100 pounds, and it took a lot of effort for the two to transport it back.

Now in the shelter there is meat except meat, and the snake skin is stripped off, and the snake meat is cut and smoked again.

Now there is enough meat in the shelter to eat for a month, and a lot of food is hoarded to cope with the unknown future.

"Maybe in the near future, we will be forced to leave here......" Wu Yi gazed at the volcano, the towering crater of which had been emitting white smoke and was getting thicker and thicker.

There is now a large amount of sun-dried firewood, which can be used to make charcoal, which is broken off from the trunks, about one and a half meters long, and then put into the kiln.

The kiln is so large that you can put a lot of wood at once, and you can make a fire at the bottom and slowly ignite all the wood.

Wu Yicai is also making charcoal for the first time, but he has developed a set of processes in his mind.

The wood is first ignited, fired for a period of time, and then the mouth at the bottom of the kiln is sealed with earth, and the top is also sealed with leaves and earth, revealing only a small hole 10 cm in diameter.

The burning of firewood depends entirely on the air, and where the air circulates, there is a large amount of lifting for the firewood to burn, and without oxygen, the flame will be extinguished very quickly.

The technique used by Wu Yicai is to control the amount of oxygen entering the kiln, so that the flame will not be burned all the time with too much oxygen, and finally the firewood will be burned to ashes, nor will there be no oxygen because the entrance is too sealed, the flame will be extinguished, and the charcoal will fail.

This is difficult to control and can only be judged by the smoke coming out of the kiln, and if there is a lot of smoke coming out, it means that the firewood has been successfully burned.

Slowly burning firewood, the excess water and tar in it evaporate, the formation of thick smoke, this kind of seemingly incomprehensible combustion, is the process requirements required to burn charcoal.

Ten minutes passed, and the kiln was originally emitting smoke, but then the smoke gradually became thinner, and the moisture and tar in the wood had almost evaporated.

The inside of the kiln was glowing, and it could be seen that the flames were still burning slowly, but there was no open flame, and most of the charcoal had turned charred black, except for some parts of the top of the sticks, which had not yet been completely burned.

That's a sign of success, and all you can do now is wait.
