Volume 1 The Way of the Beast Chapter 249 Fire and Home
After Lin Yong rested for a while, he regained some of his strength. Looking at the twilight in the west, he looked around again, quickly carried his backpack, led Xiaokui to an open space that was exposed to the wind, and swept away the weeds and fallen leaves with his feet:
"The sun is about to go down, so let's set up a temporary nest here. ”
Xiao Kui's originally clean face was also covered with mud and ash at the moment, but she still smiled: "Okay~"
Lin Yong took out two tactical gloves from his backpack and put them on Xiao Kui's somewhat bruised hands in distress: "It's hard for you to accompany me to suffer such a big crisis." ”
Xiaokui said optimistically: "It's okay~ Anyway, it's a holiday now, so it's a ...... It's time to come for a camping trip~"
Lin Yong pulled out the swordfish on his waist: "Now it is only an hour before the sun completely sets, and it is estimated that there are only two priorities, the first is to collect firewood, and the second is to build a camp." How about we divide up and work together? Which one do you choose?"
Xiao Kui sneered stupidly: "Of course it's picking up firewood~!"
"Good. After half a day of running, Lin Yong's hearing has also recovered a little under the strong regeneration ability, and he took off a military sentry around his neck and hung it on Xiao Kui's neck: "Take this with you, if there is any situation, whistle immediately, and then protect yourself, if there is any problem, I will come as quickly as possible! If you are injured again, I can't spare you." ”
Xiao Kui nodded obediently, and Lin Yong quickly told her some tips for picking up firewood. (It's very important to survive in the wild.) )
There is a knack for collecting firewood, and Lin Yong is very glad that he still remembers this.
Firewood, no matter how big or small, must first be dry!
Firewood that is not dry and a little moisture will greatly increase the difficulty of starting a fire in the early stage. So, don't look at the wood everywhere in the woods, so to speak, as long as it's wood with green leaves, you don't think much about it. Cyan means that the wood is still growing, and the wood that grows, the wood bark and the heart of the wood are all water, and it will only crackle in the fire and constantly absorb heat, which is difficult to burn.
At this time, many people said, "Then pick up the broken branches and rotten trees on the ground, right?"
The same no!
Especially in this kind of subtropical deep forest, the ground in the woods has not seen sunlight for a long time, and the humidity is far beyond your imagination, and the water will penetrate into the dead trees and rotten leaves on the ground! When you hold a bunch of trees on the ground that you think are dry to make a fire, you will find that as soon as you use force, the wood will rot, and the water will still bubble out when you put it on the fire, and if you are lucky, you can find a few wood-boring insects in the wood!
In the case of limited time, Lin Yong has already arranged for Xiao Kui, Xiao Kui's goal is very clear, the choice of firewood, one is in the woods, those small trees that died but did not fall, their inside is dry! The other is the dry and sun-exposed dead wood at the edge of the forest and the fine pile of the grass tip.
In the deep mountains and old forests of this summer, there is a long rainstorm, and when the afterglow is not exhausted, many low plants can still faintly see water traces, but fortunately it is obviously a barren forest with no traces, and the trees and vegetation are abundant, like a small treasure house. Under Lin Yong's advice, Xiao Kui's movements were very careful, and he used branches to chase away the surrounding snakes and insects at every step in the wild.
It didn't take long for Aoi to find a lot of dry and crisp firewood! Hehe
On the other side, Lin Yong, who set up a tent, had his own plans. The sun left the earth little by little, and he couldn't delay a little longer, time, which means the continuation of life, the hope of two people's survival.
Lin Yong came to the depths of the woods, Lin Yong wanted to find some strong branches, this kind of branches can be quickly found directly on the tree, the only condition is that the length must be appropriate, the branches must be strong, a total of eight to find!
The branches should not be too tough, nor too brittle, two long and two short, and there are four medium-length supports, groping, searching, searching, Lin Yong successfully picked the last short branch on a tree more than three meters high.
The next step is to prune and prune the leaves, at this time, the swordfish is small and straight, and the toughness of the swordfish is exerted to the extreme, a good knife is used to! When pruning the branches and leaves, Lin Yong also looked at the surrounding environment very carefully! The terrain near here is still relatively gentle, because the vegetation is too lush, completely blocking the line of sight, if you act carefully, in case you are bitten by the snakes, insects, rats and ants that come out of nowhere, it is likely to be the call of the Lord of Yama to play mahjong.
Swing the bundle of branches back to the camp. Lin Yong, who worked tirelessly, got a lot of hay from the nearby woods, and even found a lot of huge king lotus leaves and wild lotus seeds from the pond by the stream...... Plug it on the back, and get rid of a green peacock to open the screen~
These seemingly easy jobs actually took the two of them an hour. (Time in the wild flies very quickly.) )
Okay, let's sort out what we have.
One main branch, six secondary branches, a large number of licorice branches, and five or six huge lotus leaves.
First of all, Lin Yong put the main branch between the branches of a strong tree, the branches, the ground and the big tree, about a triangle of 45 degrees of acute angle, after making sure that it was firmly possible to dance on it, Lin Yong rested on the six secondary branches on the main branch. And the bones of the tent came out!
Next, Lin Yong took out the rope that was thrown and fixed the connection points between each trunk. Then spread the dry branches and dead leaves between the secondary branches, and finally put on a few palm leaves, which is a preliminary completion!
Xiao Aoi leaned over and said, "Wow~ It's amazing! It looks pretty good! I'll try to make it strong~"
"Hey! Wait!"
Aoi touched it with great interest............ Rumble......!
She was innocent like a child, she didn't dare to move, turned her head to look at Lin Yong, her face was full of embarrassment, and she pouted and said, "I didn't mean to~"
Lin Yong looked at her grizzled face, angry and funny: "It's okay, come, this is the soap I quietly came from Tu Ying, go to the river to wash before it's dark, and look at you have become a little flower cat." ”
Lin Yong stood in front of the messy tent and crossed his waist. How could it collapse?
Seemingly...... It was the second and fourth knots that were not tied, and many lotus leaves and dead branches had no attachments......
After having a construction experience, the second time I was familiar with it, and I survived in ten minutes. A tent appeared in front of Lin Yong again.
Looking at the extremely ugly tent in front of him, Lin Yong squinted his eyes and clapped his hands gently, Hey, can you pour another one for me to see?
Xiao Aoi said with great interest: "Wow~"
Lin Yong covered his face: "Don't wow, I know what you want to say...... It's terrible, isn't it? Don't comfort me, it's good to sleep. ”
After getting this, Lin Yong spread the remaining dry branches and hay in the tent, and also spread the moisture-proof mat into it, and finally, with a knife, dug a small mud ditch within a radius of two meters, and it was finally done!
The front section of the whole tent is about chest high, and the angle of the secondary branches is also relatively large, and the tent is already a dry nest of three or four square meters, loose and comfortable, compared to the damp and wet ground, this is already a five-star hotel!
....................................................................................................................................................................................
It was already completely dark.
Xiao Kui turned on the flashlight, watched Lin Yong run around in the tent, and set up a small stove.
"What are you going to do?"
Lin Yong said solemnly: "It's not safe enough now, it's okay if I'm alone, but if you're here, you have to make a fire!"
Lin Yong took out the selected fire-starters, wrapped these softest and driest hay mosses into a fist-sized hollow bird's nest, put them in a dry position, and rubbed the blade with the flint in the D80 knife bilge.
Sad!
A little spark immediately burrowed into the licorice nest. Lin Yong was like holding a chicken, holding the bird's nest to his mouth and gently blowing into it, while holding the edge of the grass nest and slowly shaking it in the air. Soon a little gray smoke came out of it.
Come on, smoke a little bigger!
The flames swept through the grass nest like a wild beast!
Lin Yong let go of his hand suddenly, and put the fire into the stove! Dry firewood and branches in the sky, take care of them carefully, in this darkness, the brightness and warmth of the fire are far more refreshing than the cold flashlight. The firewood on the ground was still sufficient, Lin Yong took advantage of the situation to add fire, and the raging flames burned more and more, and soon the faces of the two of them were red.
The wilderness is nothing more than these two things that give you the most peace———— shelter and warmth.
Fire can make people quiet, fire can make people concentrate, and fire is people's greatest sense of security.
The two met their eyes, and unconsciously moved closer.
"Bang Bang Bang!!"
Lin Yong suddenly pulled out a silver carp caught from the brook when he passed by the stream just now from the firewood pile behind him.
"And the fish?Where did you come from~I want to eat grilled fish~!"
Maybe he worked hard all day just to give Xiaokui warmth and safety for this second.
Lin Yong turned the grilled fish over the fire for about ten minutes, and then took out a small transparent medicine bottle from the mezzanine of his backpack, which contained brown powder.
Xiao Aoi's eyes widened: "What is this?"
Lin Yong said proudly: "This is one of the most difficult things to get in the mountains, a little less, it can make people flutter like immortals~ Before leaving, I was almost late for this small bottle." ”
Xiao Kui was surprised: "Fluttering immortals......? Poison ......"
Lin Yong sneered: "Can drugs be compared to it? People can quit drugs, but people can never quit it!" After speaking, he cherished some powder in the bottle with his fingertips, evenly coated it on the freshly grilled fish, and after turning it twice on the fire, he tore out a piece of bright white fish meat the size of his little finger from the fish and sent it to Xiaokui's mouth: "Open your mouth ~ taste it!"
