Chapter 39: Slate Burning
Mars stood at the door of the stone house and looked out to sea.
Now he was looking due south.
You can see the sea far away, and you can see the shallows near the door.
He felt that everything was under his control.
At the moment, Lawrence was at the top of the stone house, which was a makeshift watchtower.
It's a place to see further afield and discover a lot of things!
So after Mars came out, Lawrence had already discovered him.
"Mars, come up there, there will be a clear sea breeze here that will make you completely sober. ”
Lawrence didn't like his son like this, and he wanted his son to be a hard-working man who could deal with all kinds of problems.
Instead of eating some boiled stuff yesterday and then relaxing yourself.
This sea is still very big, and he will need to explore and survive by himself in the future.
Therefore, Lawrence has a lot of requirements for Mars, and only in this way can he train his son to be a competent seaman.
to be able to survive in this sea.
Mars heard his father's somewhat serious words, and knew that his father was not only trying to sober himself, but also to teach himself.
So, he climbed onto the roof.
The wind on the roof is indeed very strong, and it seems that there is only such a strong wind in the sky at such a height.
But when you get to the ground, the wind is much lighter.
"Mars, you have to be cautious at all times, although you have me now, but what if you will later?"
"No matter what happens, you need to stabilize your mentality, now we are drifting on this sea, but there are many human settlements that are very large, very powerful, and they even dare to fight against the dragon. ”
"What are you going to do when the time comes?"
"So, you have to have this kind of tolerance like me, even if I don't know what you pick up, but I won't be surprised, because you can pick up anything in this sea. ”
"Mars, be brave, a very difficult challenge awaits you!"
......
Mars looked at the sea, and then listened to his father talk about these things.
He didn't want to refute it, because the way he understood it was different from the way his father understood it.
Rather than that, it's better to listen to the adults seriously.
Mars didn't know if it was because he wanted to have a safe home, and then left a cowardly impression on his father.
And then as soon as I waited for this opportunity to teach myself, I kept making myself brave.
Therefore, Mars also thought deeply about this problem in his heart, thinking that he had to be stronger no matter what.
The human beings living in this world are incomparably strong in their hearts, because they are facing the most difficult test of survival.
After being taught by his father, Mars felt that his thoughts were unusually clear.
That's to change yourself and change here.
"Father, I will pay attention, and I will always be vigilant in the future. ”
"Hmm!"
Lawrence had a teachable expression on his face and walked down the roof.
Now that the sun has come out, the scorching sun is about to scorch this sea, so at this time, you must not be here for too long.
Otherwise, it is a great threat to your own safety.
Mars came down with his father, and then he said to Lawrence, "Father, how about we change the way we eat today?"
Last night's experiments led Mars to discover that food cooked in hot water was really delicious.
But not today.
Because I have limited fresh water now.
He didn't have that much water to make a big pot and then cook the meat and eat it.
"Mars, I'll leave it to you!"
Lawrence didn't say anything about saving water or not, in this world this has become a human instinct, they don't waste water, so he is also relieved to let his son get it.
Hearing his father's approval, Mars was full of energy.
"I wonder if the flame of this biogas can be used to roast meat?"
"Forget it, use a slate!"
"This will allow us to test whether the stone tools I have made can withstand the burning of fire. ”
Mars thought so, and then did the same.
He is not going to cook something in an iron box today, but is going to cook a barbecue.
However, the barbecue was grilled directly on the biogas, and Mars was still a little worried.
So, think about keeping it simple.
Make your own stone slab that resembles an iron plate.
Let the flame burn under the stone, and you will roast the meat on top of the stone and eat it.
So, the idea is there, and the action begins.
Soon, Mars made a smooth slate.
It looks like a reef, but the surface is smooth because it was made according to your own ideas.
However, Mars looked at the slate and thought that the edge of the slab was too smooth and might slip away if he put grease on it, so he made a shield on the edge of the slate.
The food will still be in there.
After making these things, Mars made changes to the place where the iron box he had made yesterday was placed, and then put the slate on it.
Then the jet vent Mars under the slate also changed, and became a four-jet one!
This is going to be a big hype!
After doing this, Mars lit the fire first to see if the slate could resist.
If the slate doesn't have any problems in the hot state, then Mars will go to the next preparation.
Four eruptions of flames appeared, and after the fierce burning Mars waited, and Lawrence watched his son burn the stone, not knowing what he was doing.
"Not bad, the stone didn't crack!"
Mars observed up and down, and then felt the temperature on the slate with his hand, and found that the temperature was very hot, but there was no problem at all, so he said with satisfaction.
"Father, let's go catch a fish, and then we can roast the slices of meat on it. ”
Mars said to his father, but as he said this, he heard the flames shake and make a sound.
When I turned my head, I found that the flamevent of the four sprays had been extinguished.
"Father, it looks like we need to catch a few fish. ”
There was no biogas, so Mars had to catch some fish and throw them into the lid of the stone.
After this replacement, it is a biogas generator.
Lawrence listened to Mars's words, and there was no connection between them, and although he could not see the fire, he felt that his son seemed to be planning to make a fire out of fish.
Of course, Lawrence can also understand that it was the internal organs of fish that had fire before.
So if you want to use fire again, you have to catch more fish.
Knowing this, Lawrence nodded, and the two of them went to the shallows together to find food.
