Chapter 57: Successful Fire Lighting (1st Update)
Holding a charcoal star wrapped in velvet made of tree bark and hay fragments, Jiang Liu'er even felt like one of her hearts was about to pop out of her chest.
It's like carrying a rabbit in your arms, fluttering and jumping, so that the eardrum in your ears is even buzzing.
This may be the last hope for drilling wood to make fire, the spark can start a prairie fire, I hope Chairman Mao's famous words can bless himself and succeed in making a fire!
The velvet in his hand emitted a faint green smoke, like a dying patient, as if he couldn't catch it in one breath and was about to completely swallow his breath and die, while Jiang Liu'er was like holding an ice cube on the tip of his tongue, neither letting it ice nor letting it melt, this taste, not to mention how uncomfortable it was.
"Hoo ......"
Jiang Liu'er saw the opportunity and slowly blew a breath.
Anyone who has seen survival in the wilderness knows that the first breath must not be too big, and if it is small, it can be added, in case the force is too strong and blows out the little spark at once, then it will be completely GG.
It took more than a dozen breaths to blow slowly, and Jiang Liu'er, whose spirit was tense into a string, didn't even dare to breathe out of the atmosphere, a sneeze was held in his nostrils, and he didn't dare to hit it, and fine beads of sweat had oozed from the tip of his nose, and he didn't even dare to inhale into the velvet!
After all, this little Mars, which is as faint as a gossamer, is too important.
"Hoo ......"
After a short period of adjustment, the chest slowly rose and fell, inhaled oxygen, and after the circulation of the respiratory system and the adjustment of nerves, the second breath was slowly exhaled from Jiang Liu'er's barreled lips, although this breath was still very weak, but the fine feeling was a little stronger than the first breath.
Because Jiang Liu'er saw that after the first breath was exhaled, the faint spark actually emitted a faint flame again, even if it was very weak, it was enough to ignite Jiang Liu'er's dead heart again.
"Hoo ......"
"Hoo ......"
……
This was followed by a third breath...... Fourth breath...... The strength of each time is stronger than the first, and the Mars, which seemed to be dying before, has gradually shone brightly, emitting wisps of small but quite vibrant green smoke, and through the dispersion and transfer of heat, the velvet attached to the Mars in the center has ignited.
After a long time, Jiang Liu'er's hands holding the velvet gradually became a little sore, his arms felt numb, and his face became very red because of the poor breathing caused by holding his breath and blowing.
Because he knows that he is infinitely close to succeeding in making a fire.
As a fire-making hero, Mars gradually ignited a large area of velvet, and through the periphery of the velvet, Jiang Liuer could even feel the heat of Mars through the palm of his hand, and it became hotter and hotter as the frequency and speed of his blowing increased...... It's getting hotter......
It wasn't until the velvet in his palm began to get hot and his skin reacted uncomfortably, that Jiang Liu'er reluctantly put down the velvet in his hand, and then put the drill stalk and the bottom plate in a place where he could see it, so as not to let them get in the way of his life, and then broke off some of the bark that he had not rubbed into pieces and the strips of hay that looked like wheat stalks and attached them to the top of the velvet.
Everything is ready, only the last breath of the east wind that ignites the velvet!
Only heard the sound of "whew", Jiang Liuer held his breath and blew hard towards the place where the center of the velvet was glowing, with the guarantee of the ignited velvet, he was no longer afraid that he would accidentally blow the fire star, in the face of great joy and expectation, the sneeze that had been held in his nostrils seemed to have quietly disappeared.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.................."
With the sound of a burst of velvet burning violently and the crackling sound of the bark crackling, a sky-high fire suddenly rose from Jiang Liu'er's eyes in an instant, illuminating a large area of space in an instant, he only felt a sudden light in front of his eyes, and the sudden firelight even made his eyes a little uncomfortable, and there was a temporary blindness of breathing or so.
But he quickly reacted, looking at the flames beating like a child cheering in front of him, showing endless vitality, Jiang Liu'er's heart suddenly seemed to be filled with something, his nose was sore, and he almost didn't shed tears.
Joy, excitement, surprise, bitterness, all kinds of mixed feelings blended in his heart, and the endless sense of accomplishment was enough to make him cry tears of joy in this unaccompanied cave.
There is no endless road!
Is there anything more ecstatic on this deserted island than having food and fire?
It is estimated that even if someone exchanges this small flame for delicacies from the mountains and seas, jade plate delicacies, Wanguan family wealth and Jiang Liu'er, he may not be willing, money is all outside the body, and in the case that he is not sure of the desert island, only living is the most important thing.
Alive, everything still has a chance, without life, everything is empty words.
Jiang Liu'er broke off the small dead branches around her and put them on the relatively small flames, while slowly lowering her head and blowing the wind vigorously, and a strong sense of satisfaction and security suddenly surged in her heart.
And this, undoubtedly, cannot be given by other things.
Let's call this flame obtained by Jiang Liu'er a bonfire for the time being, as the flames in front of him became more and more vigorous, all kinds of dry wood crackled and burned inside, making all kinds of strange sounds, and the flames that soared into the sky instantly illuminated the entire cave.
Light and heat, it is only now that Jiang Liuer really feels the importance of these two things.
Although I didn't find a lot of firewood, I was able to sustain a little time.
With the guarantee of flames, Jiang Liu'er slowly got up, looked around the cave wall, and then suddenly found a great surprise.
I saw that not far from the right side of the entrance of the cave, there were several long and short roots!
Probably because the roots of these trees were facing away from the entrance of the cave, and it was close to dark before, and the vision was relatively dim and blurry, so when he first came in, Jiang Liu'er, who was in a nervous mood, did not notice them.
Seeing this, Jiang Liu'er suddenly rejoiced, these roots look very thick, the long exposed cave wall is more than a meter long, and the short one is dozens of centimeters, maybe the roots are not very ideal for burning firewood compared to the branches, because the roots burn very slowly, and the heat generated is far less than dry firewood, but it is precisely because the roots are relatively thick and tough, and can keep burning for a long time, so it is undoubtedly a powerful fire for Jiang Liuer to spend a long night!
After all, what he needs is not a fire, but a fire that can burn until dawn and give himself a sense of security, and the roots of the tree are undoubtedly the best choice to keep the fire burning, at least in the eyes of Jiang Liu'er, who lacks the means of survival, it is true.
