Chapter 20: Making a Fire
With flint, today's transaction is over, Lin Bei nodded with the hunters, ran into the forest, disappeared from the sight of the hunters, and then secretly turned a corner and came back, but hidden, because he was afraid of Cui's Alan's sensitive intuition, so Lin Bei was a little far away, he was observing.
Lin Bei didn't know why he came back, it should be purely an intuition, in his previous life, Lin Bei generally had a kind attitude towards people, but now that he is a snake body, he is inexplicably a little suspicious, and the snake body and human heart are always different from people.
Lin Bei hid it well, Cui Clan Alan naturally couldn't show him, and of course it was even more impossible for other hunters, they were working together to move the giant bear to the back of the big bull.
Lin Bei's guess is good, in this era, there are very few hunters who can hunt bears, because the bears are too fierce, let alone a hunter, even if a dozen hunters are fully armed, it is difficult to kill an adult giant bear, so the value of each bear is extremely high, and the hunters' expressions are beaming.
"Lord Long is so nice." The hunters are talking about Lin Bei.
"This black bear is at least five hundred pounds, and Lord Long can actually kill it, which is really amazing."
"Lord Long should have mana, don't talk about black bears, in my opinion, even tigers are not opponents."
Cui Shi Alan said: "We have been hunting for many years, from our ancestors until now, have you ever heard of a long worm as big as a dragon?" Lord Long must have become a mountain spirit as those old men said. ”
The one named Jiulang also said: "What Alan said is extreme, Lord Long actually knows how to write, will he be more knowledgeable than the master?" ”
"Haha, even if you are more knowledgeable than your master, do you still want Lord Long to be an official? Lord Long is not a scholar. ”
"What if you're not a scholar?" Jiu Lang smiled and said, "If Lord Long wants to be an official, those scholars dare to stop half a point?" I'm not afraid that Lord Long will kill them. ”
"Lord Long is an official? That's pretty strange. ”
"Alright." Cui Shi Alan said: "Don't talk about Lord Long behind your back, big mountain, tiger head, take down the wooden barrel on the cow's back and go to the river to fetch two buckets of water." ”
Dashan and Hutou agreed, each took the wooden barrel down, and prepared to go to the river to fill the water, Dashan said as he said: "Alain, in the future, we won't have to fetch water every time we come in to hunt, right?" ”
Before Alain could speak, Jiulang said, "You guys are content, didn't you listen to what the stranger who came a few days ago?" The Central Plains region is also in a severe drought, and the price of a bucket of rice is actually 3,000 yuan, and it is still rising, and we have at least water here. ”
"Yes, three thousand dollars a bucket of rice, Yiren said, many people sell their sons and daughters, and some people even say that they cannibalize each other, compared to the Central Plains, our Hepu is like a peach source."
"Taoyuan? Hmph, why did the big barbarians in Gaoliang County kill officials and rebel some time ago? Took the head of the county lord? ”
"If you want me to say, these South Vietnamese people are still thieves."
"Bullshit, I've heard people say that the big barbarian is bold and righteous, and the country rangers have a lot of admiration, when it comes to him, who doesn't say a good man? It's just that the dog official asked for bribes, some time ago, I met a beautiful woman, the dog official was confused, how do you know that this beautiful woman is a little involved with the big barbarian, the big barbarian is angry, with dozens of heroes broke into the county office, killed the dog official, this is not a rebellion against the official, but for the way of heaven, although it is a thief, when it comes to the big barbarian, who doesn't give a thumbs up and praise? But I don't know where the big barbarian is hiding at this time? Could it be in this mountain? ”
"Killing the official, isn't that a rebellion? What is the truth of what you are talking about? The other hunter was not convinced.
The person before still wanted to distinguish it, but Cui's Alan glared, quite imposing: "We small people, what are you talking about?" Don't you want to learn from that big brute too? Or do you want to catch the big brute? Let's stop there, get some water, let's get out of the forest, and then sell the black bear, and buy something for the house. ”
"That's what Alain said." An Orion chimed in.
Cui's Alan was very powerful in the hearts of these hunters, so the hunters didn't talk much, fetching water, and several people talked to the black bear on the back of the ox, studying how to divide the black bear, so as to maximize the value, and when the water came, the hunter tied the bucket to both sides of the big ox, and then drove the ox and staggered towards the outside of the forest.
Lin Bei finally understood why these people were driving a cow, it turned out to be used to carry things, like wooden barrels filled with water, each about a hundred catties, although the hunters were strong, but it was extremely difficult to move.
In addition, Lin Bei also knows some of the situation outside, this is not the Central Plains, the Central Plains in ancient times generally refers to the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River, that is, the current He/Nan Province, here should be Nanyue, that is, the Liangguang region in modern times, which is a relatively remote place in ancient times.
The Central Plains is prosperous, but the remote areas also have benefits, that is, whenever the Central Plains is in turmoil, there are few wars in remote places, at most some small-scale bandits are rampant, but here Orions are rampant, don't underestimate these Orions, they are all good at fighting, so even if there are bandits, the impact may not be very large, but for Lin Bei, the news is quite good.
The fewer people, the safer Lin Bei is, even if everyone knows that Lin Bei is a demon snake, it is definitely impossible to send a large army to exterminate it, as long as Lin Bei does not die, then Lin Bei's safety can indeed be guaranteed.
Subsequently, Lin Bei followed behind Orion, watching the Orions carefully go out of Fushan, on the way, these Orions also discussed a set of rhetoric, saying how to meet a stupid bear, and then the stupid bear was killed by them, listen to their meaning, this matter is still not ready to sue others, Lin Bei turned back to Longtan.
Back in Longtan, Lin Bei first observed the surrounding environment, there was nothing unusual, no large beasts dared to come to Lin Bei's territory to pick Lin Bei's tiger whiskers, put things on the ground, Lin Bei climbed the locust tree, opened the vine cover, the two little guys slept soundly, and the crab meat was a little less, it seemed that they woke up again when Lin Bei went out just now, and fell asleep after eating food, Lin Bei was relieved.
Climbing down the locust tree again, Lin Bei opened the bag, took a piece of dried meat in his mouth and put it in his mouth, and then, Lin Bei looked at the flint, and he was ready to make a fire.
Fire is the main difference between humans and beasts, the first expression of human wisdom is to be able to use fire to cook food, Lin Bei has to do this is also this, first found some dead branches and weeds nearby, now it is autumn, there are a lot of fallen leaves in the forest, and there are a lot of dead branches, just turn around, Lin Bei got a few large bundles, and then vacated a vacant space, ready to light a bonfire in this open space.
The flint is not big, but the fire sickle is bigger, so Lin Bei fixed the flint between the two stones, and then used the tail to roll up the fire sickle to rub the flint, rub it twice if it doesn't work once, and wipe it three times if it doesn't work twice, finally, after Lin Bei tested it for half an hour, he was able to rub the sparks out, so he put the flannel between the flints, and then rubbed it a few times with the fire sickle, the fluff touched the sparks, and sneered, Lin Bei quickly rolled up the dry grass and got to the top of the flannel, and then the fire grew bigger, and the fire started.
When the fire is bigger, Lin Bei leads the fire to the open space, and begins to add dry firewood, and the wood naturally has to be used, these woods will form charcoal after burning, which is the easiest way to keep the fire, and when it is not used, you can use mud to suppress the fire, as long as there are sparks in the charcoal, remove the soil again and then it will burn again.
The raging fire was burning, Lin Bei looked at the fire, and his heart was extremely happy, Lin Bei tried hard to live like a person, and now it seems that he is one step closer.
"It's going to get better, it's going to get better."
