Chapter 43: Light in the Darkness

Lawrence carefully held the ignition object.

Then he slowly left the stone house and headed towards the place where he was cooking.

There is a sea breeze outside the stone house, and the wind is not small.

The flame beats rapidly at the end of the ignition object.

It's as if it will be extinguished at any moment.

However, Lawrence quickly used his hands to cover it, and in this way, a safe haven was formed, and the flames finally calmed down a little.

Then Lawrence walked quickly to the place where he was cooking.

At this time, it is necessary for Mars to take control.

Mars let a vent under the slate start blowing before Lawrence lit it.

With such a long ignition, it is many times safer than lighting a match.

So it's very easy.

When the flame was ignited, Mars let all four vents begin to spew.

"Mars, this thing is so convenient, much more convenient than matches, and safe, it won't be burned. ”

Lawrence was satisfied, and then handed the fire starter in his hand to Mars, telling Mars to turn it off.

"Father, this kind of tool is a lot of production, and then we can find its convenience, and we will have more tools in the future. ”

"Well, work hard, this will improve your natural abilities. ”

"By the way, I've caught a dozen fish, do you need to put them in here now?"

Lawrence thought of the fish he caught, and at this time, Lawrence was already very fond of this fire, so he was very anxious about this thing, and could not let it go out when it was in use.

"Well, put them all in so we can have an endless fire. ”

Mars was pleased with his father's efficiency, and then began to control the digester, making a fish inlet next to it, so that there would be no gas leakage when he went in to throw fish in.

More than a dozen fish were thrown in by Mars, and he used displacement, so there was a lot of biogas in the whole gas pit.

This could have been used for several days, but to make sure the gas was always available, Mars and Lawrence planned to put a few fish in it every day.

The slate was heating up at this point, and Lawrence had already begun to boil oil skillfully.

Mars looked at the slate that was bubbling with a scent, then waited for the slices of kebab.

The two sat on either side of the stone slab eating barbecue, and as time went on, the sea became darker and darker.

Two people sat around the fire, eating barbecue and drinking fish soup.

Mars added two more jets when the two of them were eating the barbecue, so that they could cook a little fish soup.

At this time, Mars knew how rebellious his abilities were, and he could do whatever he wanted.

Mei Mei enjoyed an afternoon dinner.

Lawrence and Mars finally felt satisfied.

Then the two of them left here and went back to the stone house.

At this moment, the sun had set in the west, and the sea was pitch black, except for one light, which came from a low stone house.

Humans live here, and this gives hope to other humans who are trying to survive in the darkness.

Lawrence was standing in the doorway, and then the dark shadow behind him was stretched into the shallows.

He just watched, at the bright stone house.

He felt shocked, so he looked at it like this, and didn't move for a long time.

Mars is different from his father, he only sees his own hope, and sees the hope that he and his father live in this world better and better.

As for the brightness of this lamp, it is actually not as bright as imagined at all.

But for a human being who has been living in the darkness of the night, this thing is really very bright.

You can see your hands, you can see the clothes made of fish skin on your body, and you can see everything in the stone house.

"Mars, this thing is always bright, at night, will you mistake this for dawn, and then you can't sleep well?"

Lawrence sensed his concern.

Especially after the introduction of a lamp, although it is a biogas lamp, it also illuminates the stone house.

"Father, you can rest assured that I can make a cover around it, so that when we sleep, we can cover it, and it will be dark in the stone house, and when we get up at night, as long as we remove these coverings, we can light up our stone house. ”

If Lawrence had any doubts, Mars would explain them to his father.

In this way, after Lawrence's doubts were relieved, he felt more at ease what he could do.

Looking at the brightness here, it is very reassuring here in the dark.

Lawrence returned to the stone house and sat down on his bed.

At this moment, from the place where I was sitting, I could see the shallows outside the door, and there was a glimmer of light in the sea, not very much, but I could also see the waves coming again and again.

Mars also returned to the stone house, and was full of food and drink, and it was another day.

Now it can be under the light, in the dark, it makes people feel more at ease.

"Sleep, Mars!"

"Yes, Father!"

Mars got up and blocked the light with a few stone chips, and the inside of the stone house dimmed, and then the outside of the stone house became even darker.

In the sea, you can only hear the sound of the waves, but you can no longer see anything.

There was light just now, and it felt like the sea wasn't so dangerous.

But now, after nothing, the unique feeling of fear of darkness filled every place in an instant.

Let all life here be in order, quietly.

Mars didn't sleep, he lay on his bed, leaning back against the stone wall, and looked out the door.

He couldn't see anything outside the door, but it made him feel like he could see anything.

The reason why he feels this way is because Mars is very familiar with his surroundings, and most of the familiarity is expanded little by little by himself.

Although he also had the help of his father, many of them were made by Mars himself, so he would feel familiar.

After getting acquainted, even if it is dark, you know where there is and where there is nothing.

"Mars, rest early, tomorrow has tomorrow's things. ”

Lawrence could sense the currents in the dark and knew the direction of the moving island, so he also knew what his son was doing at this time.

He couldn't see it, but he could feel it.

"Father, I'll go to sleep now, and you should rest early!"

After Mars was reminded by Lawrence, he could only go to sleep.

At the end of the day, there was light in the darkness, but not much had changed.

When it's time to go to bed, you need to rest early.

Some changes don't happen overnight, and it takes more time to get used to them.
