Chapter 69: The Stone Is on Fire
So just like that, the depressed Ye Feng looked at Chu Yun and them while chewing on the hard jerky.
I saw them sitting around the bonfire, and a clay pot was set up in the campfire, and the soup in the basin was bubbling, and the pieces of meat in it were floating in the thick white soup.
"How's it going, how long will it take to eat?" Gray said as he sniffed the aroma coming from the pot.
Chu Yun pulled off the wild chives in his hand and threw them into the pot, while smiling: "It'll be fine right away, don't worry, don't worry!" ”
After Chu Yun finished speaking, he stirred the wild chives into the soup with chopsticks sharpened from a tree branch, and suddenly, a smell of the aroma of chives and the aroma of the broth blended into the soup, which made people take a few deep breaths to feel the fresh fragrance in the air. The thick white soup is adorned with emerald green onions, and it looks like plum blossoms on display in the snow, and people can't help but have a big appetite for their index fingers.
"Huh? Ye Feng, don't you come to eat? Delicious! Liu Junting said to Ye Feng, a piece of snake bone in his hand was sucked by him, and he couldn't wait to swallow all the organic matter on it.
Ye Feng swallowed a mouthful of saliva with the fragrance in the air, and his stomach coincidentally gurgled back. At that moment, he really wanted to grab the pottery bowl in Liu Junting's hand, but when he thought of rolling up and down when he killed the snake, he couldn't help but feel palpitations, and quickly shook his hand and said, "Didn't I say it, I won't drink the soup!" I won't eat it! ”
Seeing Ye Feng's resolute attitude, Liu Junting didn't say anything more, silently fighting with his share of food, and the look of enjoyment gave Ye Feng the urge to beat people.
Ye Feng tore off two more mouthfuls of jerky, and when he looked up, he saw Chu Yun walking towards him with a pottery bowl.
"I know you don't eat snake meat, so before the snake meat is put into the pot, I specially prepared a big chicken leg for you, come and taste it, it's delicious! With such a big chicken leg, you can be considered to take advantage of it,"
Ye Feng looked at the whole leg of the pheasant exuding heat in the bowl, a warm current spread in his heart, and hurriedly took the pottery bowl, and said gratefully: "Thank you, as long as it is the food made by your Chu Da Beauty, there is no reason why it is not delicious!" ”
Poof, Chu Yun sneered and said, "It's all a family, say thank you, and you finally said a human word!" ”
"Family?" Ye Feng muttered these three words, smiling stupidly, completely ignoring Tao Kan behind Chu Yun.
"What do you want, you!" Chu Yun's cheeks were crimson, and he stomped his feet like a rare little girl, and then walked away.
The temperature of early spring is neither hot nor cold, it is a good time to hurry, unlike the scorching summer, at noon must pass the hot sun, otherwise it will be heat stroke and coma.
The group walked until sunset, and then found a place to rest.
"Gray, how long can you walk where the green stone was found?" Ye Feng asked Gray while rubbing his sore and aching feet.
The Rock Tribe is a tribe that travels far away to trade, and long-distance walking is a piece of cake for them, so after a day's walk, everyone is tired, he is stunned that there is no, he is still in good spirits, and he does not look tired.
Gray put his hand on the pergola, looked around at the sunset, and said, "Come on, we're already halfway there." ”
"That's great! Who, you two get the bonfire up, I'm going to map this side!" Ye Feng said to the twin brothers, and took out a roller of animal skin and a charcoal pen made of charcoal from the quiver.
Since the departure of the Rock Tribe, Ye Feng has prepared several animal skins to draw a topographical map along the way. If a copper mine can be found there, the value is self-evident. Understanding the terrain along the way not only facilitates the transportation of ore, but also facilitates the military and strategic control of the mine in the future.
Marking the direction, setting the scale, drawing the icon, everything went smoothly, just when he was preparing to draw the contour line according to the terrain, a loud shout startled him, and the charcoal in his hand also trembled, and the original correct contour line did not know which side it was crooked.
He was about to get angry, but he heard the latter sentence of the shouter, and under the blowing of the evening breeze, Ye Feng couldn't help but be frightened: "Oh no! The stone is on fire, there are demons, there are demons! ”
How can a stone catch fire? Ye Feng is an atheist, so naturally he doesn't think about ghosts and gods. Stones catch fire, and the first thing that comes to his mind is white phosphorus. This thing has a very low ignition point, and even a little higher air temperature can ignite it. It is also very lightweight, and it will float around people with the air they move around. Because the bones of humans and animals contain a large amount of white phosphorus, this phenomenon is often found in cemeteries, making people mistakenly think that it is a ghost and call it a ghost fire.
Although he was an atheist, he thought that there might be a lot of white bones around him, and as soon as the sky was dark and the cool evening breeze was blowing, Ye Feng felt like he had goosebumps.
"I hope it's not the white phosphorus that comes from the bones, and if it is, whether it's human or animal, otherwise I won't be able to sleep here tonight! Damn, it's too infiltrating. Thinking so, Ye Feng stopped drawing the map, and hurriedly stopped the person who was shouting.
It turned out that the person who shouted was the twin brother's Zodas, he looked panicked and uneasy, and he stumbled and said, "Ye Feng...... Stone...... The stone is on fire, it's terrible! This...... The stone must have been cursed by the devil...... Curse! How else would he be on fire. ”
Ye Feng couldn't suppress his excitement for a while, so he could only say, "Take me to see that stone." ”
"No...... Don't go, that stone has a curse! Zodas said he wouldn't say anything.
Ye Feng was helpless, seeing him looking at the rising fire in fear, so he slowly approached the fire.
"Ye Feng, don't, come back quickly!" Behind was the exclamations of his companions, but Ye Feng turned a deaf ear and approached the fire unhurriedly.
As soon as he saw the so-called burning stone, Ye Feng snorted, clutched his stomach, and smiled backwards.
I saw that the stone was completely black, and it was surrounded by this campfire, and it seemed that it was intended to make a simple stove from it. On the side near the flame, it was burning, black and red, and it was a piece of coal, no matter how you look at it.
"Hahaha, hey! I'm laughing to death, God's stone is on fire! Ye Feng's face was swollen and red, and he couldn't support it.
Everyone looked at Ye Feng's reaction, and they all thought in unison: "It's over, the curse has appeared, making Ye Feng stupid!" ”
