Chapter 118: Drilling wood for fire
Now that the scene has dropped to zero, then show your hand at this time.
Lu Wei said to everyone: "We don't bring fire, we have other ways to make a fire." β
This sentence is for the rest of the team, and it is also for netizens.
After Lu Wei said this, everyone else looked at the primitive people's eyes and asked Lu Wei a lot.
"Are you sure you're serious?" Dawei showed a look of surprise, but what Lu Wei said gave him a glimmer of hope, and the dead horse was regarded as a live horse doctor.
Other people's expressions are similar, everyone thinks that drilling wood for fire is a very incredible thing, and modern people may not see a performance of drilling wood for fire in their lifetime.
"Master Wei, don't brag, now you are broadcasting live in front of more than 100,000 people across the country, and it will be a shame if you smash the performance!"
"Master Wei, I haven't seen drilling wood for fire, begging for a performance, these 2 fish balls are my tickets."
"Can you? How do I think this thing is out of the question! β
Many viewers who just entered the live broadcast room began to question the matter of drilling wood for fire. Fortunately, there are still many viewers who have been talking to the live broadcast saying a lot of good things for Lu Wei, and the direction of questioning in the live broadcast room has also changed, and those who support Lu Wei have gradually gained the upper hand.
The live broadcast activities in this era are not known to a large number of netizens, not to mention that the wilderness survival program appears in the live broadcast program, with the light of the moonlight and flashlight, the live broadcast picture is relatively clear, which makes the audience feel extremely exciting!
Many first-person live broadcasts have a strong sense of substitution, and viewers can experience the immersive feeling at home. Especially those dead houses who are typing keyboards at home every day, this show can be said to greatly meet their spiritual world needs.
Lu Wei looked at the questions raised by the audience in the live broadcast room and explained: "Actually, there are many ways to make a fire in the wilderness, this time, I will show you an ancient Chinese method of making fire, which is the drilling wood I just mentioned to make fire." β
"There is a premise for drilling wood for fire, that is, the wood used and the environment must be dry!"
Saying that, Lu Wei found a piece of dead wood, and picked up a branch as a "drill bit": "Before drilling wood for fire, we can dig a hole in the dead wood, so that when the branch is rotated, it will save a lot of effort!" β
"Lone Star in the Western Regions rewarded 3 planes! - It does look quite professional, anchor, I support you! β
"Half a candy rewarded 300 shark finsββ anchor looks very serious, very handsome!"
"Thank you all for the gift!" After thanking everyone, Lu Wei took out the knife and drilled a small pit in the dead wood, then clamped the branch with both hands, placed it vertically in the small pit, and began to rub it.
"There are three ways to drill wood for fire, hand drilling, rope drilling, bow drilling, here I will show you the simplest hand drilling method!"
The branch in Lu Wei's hand twisted at high speed, rubbing against the dead wood, making a "squeaking" sound.
"As long as we start a fire by drilling wood, and then draw the fire to the velvet, the velvet is licorice or dead leaves, but if you want to really drill out of Mars, it is difficult to do it in a short period of time, and it may take a long time, so everyone has to be patient!"
At this time, the other 8 people all gathered around Lu Wei, watching intently as Lu Wei drilled wood with branches one by one.
At this time, a cold wind blew, making Lu Wei subconsciously shrink his body, wanting to protect his fire. The temperature difference between day and night in the mountains is much larger than in the cities, and the temperature in the mountains is likely to be below zero now. Except for Lu Wei, everyone else leaned close together, and the encirclement they sat in became smaller and smaller.
Obviously, the temperature was already very low, and even with the down jackets and pants, several girls were still starting to shiver.
In the wilderness, if humans want to live safely, making a fire is an essential item, not only to keep warm, but also to drive away wild beasts.
Both of these things are closely related to personal safety.
"Is the anchor drilling wood for fire real or fake, how do I feel like I'm doing magic for us!"
"How long does it take to start a fire by friction, it has to be a unicorn arm to do it!"
"It looks very physically draining, and I feel a little sorry for our master!"
"The dragon lizard rewarded the anchor with a rocket - the anchor has to be powerful, come on!"
Next, Lu Wei began to concentrate on rubbing the wooden stick, the wood rubbed at high speed, and after a while, gray smoke came out.
"! It's smoking! Come and hold out the wind, everyone, don't just catch fire and get blown out! Dawei excitedly led everyone into a small circle and wrapped Lu Wei in the middle.
"The anchor is awesome, the little brother saw drilling wood for fire for the first time, and he was taught today!"
"yes, I think I'm starting to believe in love again!"
"What does this have to do with love, Lao Tie!"
"Keep at it, you're going to succeed!"
Seeing that the smoke was getting thicker and thicker, a smile appeared on Lu Wei's face, and it was obvious that this was a sign that Mars was about to emerge!
Sure enough, after a few more minutes, a few faint fires suddenly erupted in the dead wood pit where the wood was drilled!
Out of Mars!
Seeing that he was about to succeed, Liu Tianhua hurriedly piled up the velvet that had been placed next to him around Mars. Lu Wei blew big air with his mouth to speed up the contact area between the burning material and oxygen, which would accelerate the combustion.
However, the spark is so small that everyone now expects that the wind will not blow, and if there is a little wind and grass, half an hour's hard work will probably be in vain.
Lu Wei picked up a dead leaf and carefully touched the sparks, for fear that if he made a big move, he would extinguish them.
Gradually, a second, two seconds......
All eight members of the team stared intently at the dead leaf, and time seemed to stand still.
Just after Lu Wei blew lightly for an unknown number of times, a small blue-yellow flame suddenly grew from the tip of the dead leaf.
Everyone was very excited, and Lu Wei quickly put the dead leaves into the pile of dead leaves and licorice.
Immediately after, the blue-yellow flames slowly burrowed into the other leaves and licorice, and finally gathered together, and with a "bang", the yellow light lit up, and the small flames gathered into a raging flame!
"Oh my God! It really worked! Wu Yuxi covered her face with her hands at this time, looking incredulous, and her eyes were also flashing with tears.
At this time, everyone picked up a large number of dead branches and licorice from the side, and now this fire is everyone's hope for survival, with it, basically no beast dares to approach them, unless they are hungry.
However, it is the end of summer, and the food sources in the forest are abundant for carnivores, so there is no need to risk breaking through the line of fire to attack humans, and Lu Wei is in a safe situation.
