Xiao Zhuang and Xiao Mu have been finding the fire in the grassland tribe for several days, and how to get the fire back has become a big problem. For several days, Uncle Gao Shan pondered and couldn't sleep all night, and he thought: how difficult it is to find fire! I have sent people to look for it twice, and this time I have paid the heavy price of the dead, and now I have found the fire, but I can't get the seed back, how can I get the fire back? He has never felt so helpless for many years, is he really old? Why can't I come up with an idea after thinking about it for a few days? Isn't there really a good way to get tinder? I call on everyone to come and think of a good way to get the tinder, why hasn't anyone reported it for so long? Could it be that everyone can't think of a good solution? He pondered again......

Xiao Ye in the past few nights, in order to think about the way to get fire, he sat up in the nest several times, and fell asleep several times, but he couldn't sleep, he thought, how important fire is, how beautiful the days of fire are, but the hateful flood washed away the fire, washed away our good life. If we don't lose the fire and have barbecue to eat every day, my mother and brother won't get sick, let alone die, Xiaoshui won't be eaten by wolves, and our tribe won't die of disease. If people want to live and survive, how can they not have fire. I finally found the fire in the grassland tribe, but I couldn't get it back, I was really anxious. If you take the fire according to the method of burning the fire and moving the fire a year ago, it may not work, the road is too far, more than 200 miles away, I don't know how many fires will have to be burned, and I don't know what year and month will be able to get the fire back. He thought about it, thought about it for a few days, and couldn't think of a good way.

Xiao Ye found Xiao Zhuang, and after asking Xiao Zhuang in detail about the failure of using a torch to make fire, he returned home with a heavy heart, and he asked himself: Is there really no good way to make fire? After thinking about it for a long time, he finally came up with dry leaves, which are easy to burn, and it seems that he can only find a way to do it on dry leaves......

In addition to mowing the grass and feeding the lamb in the past few days, Xiaohua has been accompanying Xiaozhuang at Xiaozhuang's house, and she has said a lot of heartfelt words. Xiao Zhuang took her in his arms and kissed her, and whispered: "I am really useless to look for fire this time, I found the fire but there is no way to get it back, I used a long and big dry wood torch to make a fire, I tried three times and failed, if I can get the fire back and light the fire, you are already my bride." ”

Xiaohua said affectionately: "You know what? After you left, I was always worried about you, I didn't sleep a peaceful night, I dreamed of you when I fell asleep, and once I dreamed that you took the fire back, everyone was so happy, roasting meat around the fire, singing and dancing around the fire. Another time, I dreamed that you were eaten by a wolf, and I was so frightened that I woke up from my dream, and I didn't dare to fall asleep again that night. It's not easy for you to find the fire this time, and it's only a good thing, as long as you think of a good way, one day you can get the fire back, and I will be your bride sooner or later. ”

At this time, Xiao Zhuang hugged Xiaohua tighter and said, "I believe that this day will come soon." After that, he gave Xiaohua his share of barbecue, and Xiaohua said, "You can eat it, I have already eaten it."

Xiao Zhuang said: "I have eaten too much in the grassland tribe, you can keep this point." The two pushed each other for a while, Xiaohua had no choice but to accept it, and she immediately sent the barbecue to Xiaozhuang's father, and said, "Dad, you still eat it all the time, Xiaozhuang gave it to you." "Little Zhuang's father was happy from the bottom of his heart, took the barbecue, and thought how good it would be to have such a daughter-in-law! After Xiao Zhuang saw it, he was also happy to have such a filial fiancée.

This night, Xiao Zhuang and Xiao Hua were reluctant, Xiao Zhuang was reluctant to let Xiao Hua leave, Xiao Hua was even more reluctant to leave Xiao Zhuang, the lovers had endless confidant words, Xiao Hua fell into Xiao Zhuang's arms and said coquettishly: "I won't go back tonight, just let me sleep in your arms." This is exactly what Xiao Zhuang has been looking forward to for a long time, he hugged Xiaohua tightly, the two kissed each other, talked a lot of heartfelt words, and fell asleep late at night......

In order to make a fire, Xiao Ye came to Xiao Zhuang's house. Xiao Zhuang asked, "Xiao Ye, do you still want to look for me?" Xiao Ye said: "You and Xiaohua can talk, I'm here to find Xiao Tao a little affectionate."

Xiao Tao had wanted to talk to Xiao Ye for a long time, and she was very happy to hear that Xiao Ye had come to her. After Xiao Ye said goodbye to Xiao Zhuang's father and Xiao Zhuang, he took Xiao Tao to the lawn, and they talked while walking.

Xiao Ye asked Xiao Tao with a smile: "Xiao Tao, have you thought about making fire these days?" Xiao Tao said: "Why don't you want to, I also want to take the fire back, light the fire earlier, everyone can eat barbecue meat early, but, I have been thinking about it for the past few days, my head hurts, and I can't think of a good way."

Xiao Ye said: "Me too, why can't I think of a good way?" Recently, I have thought that the most flammable thing is hay and dry leaves, and in the past, we used to light the hay and dry leaves, and then ignite the dry wood. Why did your brother light the torch several times, and the fire didn't go far to get out of the fire, we recall that a year ago, the torch was used to make the fire, and the torch was extinguished before it went far, and then we succeeded in using the method of moving the fire. Now if the method of moving the fire is not possible, because the road is too far, I don't know how many fires will be needed for more than 200 miles to get the fire back, so it is no longer considered to set up a small fire to make fire. We're still trying to figure it out on dry leaves. ”

At this time, he picked a large dry leaf, tried to roll the dry leaf into a cylindrical shape, rubbed it tightly, and asked Xiao Tao, "Do you think this leaf can bring back the fire?" ”

Xiao Tao looked at the dried leaves in Xiao Ye's hand, and said with a smile: "The torch is long and big, and it can't get the fire back, can such a small dry leaf strip get the fire back?" I don't think so."

Xiao Ye thought for a while and said: "Dry leaves are easy to burn, I don't let it burn open flames, as long as there are sparks, prepare more dry leaves like this, and connect one after you run out, isn't it okay?" ”

Xiao Tao still said puzzledly: "You can give it a try, I hope you can get the fire back." ”

Xiaoye said: "Yes, we can give it a try, today we will pick the dry leaves that are long and big, and the leaves of other plants can be tried as long as they are wide and dry." They began to look for dried leaves, and after picking many, many dried leaves, they returned the way they had come along the edge of the forest.

On the way, Xiao Ye asked Xiao Tao with a smile: "The last time I went out to look for the fire, do you miss me?"

Xiao Tao replied with a red face: "After you leave, I really miss you, I can't sleep at night, I dream of you as soon as I close my eyes, fortunately you are not eaten by wolves, if you die, I don't want to live." Speaking of this, Xiao Tao had tears in her eyes.

Xiao Ye hurriedly said: "Xiao Tao, I climb trees fast, wolves can't eat me, I want to be good with you for the rest of my life, how can I die?" He hugged Xiao Tao tightly and kissed him, and Xiao Tao also hugged Xiao Ye tightly......

Xiao Tao said with tears in her eyes: "You make me miss you so much, I'm so worried about you, I'm back this time, I won't let you leave me again in the future." ”

Xiao Ye comforted: "It would be good to light the fire after taking the fire back, and we can live a good life with fire again, at that time, I will never leave you, I will marry you as a wife, accompany you for a lifetime, I want you to give birth to many children for me." It's a pity for you to see Xiao Shui, he is not married, he died like this when he was young in search of fire, but I personally saw the evil wolf eat Xiao Shui, so sad, in the future, we will avenge Xiao Shui and fight the evil wolf. He looked at the sun hanging in the sky and said, "Little Peach, it's almost noon, let's not be targeted by wild beasts, go back and roll up the leaves." He took Xiao Tao's hand, and the two ran back laughing.

When he got home, Xiao Ye told his father how he wanted to use dried leaves to make fire, and showed his father the dried leaves he rolled, and took the initiative to ask him to go to the fire with Xiao Zhuang and Xiao Mu to try to get the fire back, if not, think of other ways.

Uncle Gao Shan took the leaf strips rolled into dried leaves, looked at it again and again, and after thinking for a while, he agreed to Xiao Ye's request, and said: "Everyone is thinking about the problem of taking the fire, and so far there is no other way, you can try it, it is better to get the fire back, if the fire can't be taken, hurry back and find another way."

Xiao Ye said happily: "I knew that Dad would agree, let's hurry up and roll the dry leaves and roll more."

In the afternoon of the same day, the two of them rolled a lot of dried leaves, and used the large dried leaves to wrap the rolled and prepare for use. In the evening, Xiao Ye and Xiao Tao returned to Xiao Zhuang's house, told Xiao Zhuang about the fire, and showed Xiao Zhuang the rolled dried leaves, Xiao Zhuang took the dried leaves and looked at them, and thought to himself, we have failed to make fire with big and long torches several times, is this dry leaf okay, and he is not good at hurting Xiao Ye's face, so he said: "Okay, let's try it together, if we can take the fire back and light the fire."

Xiao Ye came from Xiao Zhuang's house, and Xiao Tao came to send Xiao Ye again, the two held hands on the road, talked and laughed, and arrived at Xiao Ye's house for a while.

Xiao Ye smiled and said to Xiao Tao: "Xiao Tao, you can sleep with me at my house, if I send you back, you send me over again, send it back and forth, it's not over, don't think about sleeping tonight." ”

Xiao Tao thought to herself, Xiao Ye really understood my heart, and said what was in my heart, so she smiled and said, "Okay, I can't do without you anyway, I am willing to sleep with you." Xiao Ye took Xiao Tao's hand and said happily: "Let's go, let's go to bed early, tomorrow I will go far away, and I will definitely get the fire back......"

Early the next morning, Xiao Zhuang led the way, Xiao Ye and Xiao Mu set off together, before leaving, Uncle Gao Shan chose two good sheepskins and asked Xiao Ye to give to Uncle Meadow. Give the three of them the meat they had prepared to eat on the way, and repeatedly tell them to go and come back quickly. The three of them set off in good spirits, Xiaohua and Xiaotao saw them off, Xiaohua said heartbrokenly: "You have to go more than 400 miles back and forth, you must be more careful, find that the beast quickly goes up the tree to hide, don't be injured by the beast, go back quickly, we are waiting for the good news that you take the fire back!" ”。

Xiao Ye said: "We will definitely be careful, and we will definitely take the fire back, you will prepare more dry leaves, dry grass, and dry firewood when you go back, and light the fire as soon as we take the fire back."

Xiaohua and Xiaotao said, "Okay, we will prepare dry grass, dried leaves, and dry firewood for you to come back." Xiao Ye and Xiao Zhuang told them to go back quickly, don't send it again, the two girls were reluctant, sent a long way, and left to return home under the persuasion of Xiao Ye and Xiao Zhuang.
