If I'm not mistaken, the fire hasn't burned yet. After all, if it burns, there will definitely be smoke at the entrance of the cave.

Sure enough, after stepping into the cave, Wen Xian found that the fire had indeed not been ignited.

At this time, the second and fifth children had a two-meter-long and arm-thick wood in the middle. The two of them squatted on one side, rubbing their heads into the oval palm-sized pebbles in their hands.

Drilling wood for fire or diamond for fire?

Wen Xian stood at the door silently, and the more she looked at the movements of the two people, the more confused she became. She suspected that these two people were both practitioners.

The second eldest Wu Junlan was originally the daughter of a general, although she never used force after entering the palace, but, logically speaking, even if she doesn't know martial arts, her body is stronger than others.

But the little five Fang Jiaren is different, Fang Jiaren's father is a household servant, a proper civil official.

She searched her memories roughly, but she never found the news of Fang Jiaren's martial arts.

Looking at the two people who were working hard, and the firewood piled up next to them to be half a person high, the doubt in Wen Xian's heart became bigger and bigger.

"Ma'am." Wu Junlan found Wen Xian, looked up and said embarrassedly, "I'm ashamed, it's been so long, we haven't lit a fire yet." ”

She couldn't make a fire at all, so she got up directly and came to Wen Xian, looking like she was at her disposal.

Fang Jiaren didn't get up, but raised his head while continuing to make a fire with diamonds: "Madam, wait, I believe that a fire will definitely be built." Yes, you can, persevere, don't give up. ”

Wen Xian: ......

She raised her hand and pinched her eyebrows, and couldn't help but say, "Is it possible, let's drill wood for fire, it's really drilling wood." Instead of drilling wood with stones, you drill wood with wood? ”

It's not impossible to have stones, after all, there is a kind of stone called flint.

However, she glanced at the stones on the ground, and they were all ordinary stones, and there was no flint and steel in them.

"Wrong?" Wu Junlan's expression froze, and she said dryly, "Madame, do you know the specific method?" ”

She was a little annoyed in her heart, as a descendant of the General's Mansion, she should know these basic survival skills.

knew that when she was at home, she should have secretly learned some survival skills.

Now she wants to learn secretly, but unfortunately, now that everyone in the family is dead, no one can teach her.

Wen Xian saw her grief on her face, and hurriedly said, "Haven't you eaten pork and haven't seen a pig run?" I've seen others do it, go, try it. ”

In the previous life, lighters were popular, and there was no need for such a primitive method as drilling wood to make fire.

However, there are many bloggers who like to do this, and she saw it when she watched the video, so she can probably make do with it.

To drill wood for fire, first of all, you have to sharpen the wooden stick you drilled. Second, drill a hole in the wood being drilled.

Finally, the sharpened stick is inserted into the hole in the wood, and some easily lit weeds are stuffed up, down, left and right, so that you can start drilling the wood for fire.

In fact, another step is to make a simple spiral top out of rope and sticks. Twist the rope first, and then turn it slightly, and the rope can drive the wood to rotate automatically.

However, this is a bit complicated to do, so I can only wait for a later time to study it carefully, and the most important thing now is to eat.

After the preparations were made, Wen Xian looked up at the two of them and said, "It's okay, who will try it." ”

"I'll come, I've got a lot of strength." Wu Junlan volunteered to take over the work in Wen Xian's hands and began to turn the wooden stick hard.

Not to be outdone, Fang Jiaren borrowed a dagger from Wen Xian and began to sharpen the wooden stick and dig a hole in the wood according to the steps just now.

Anyway, you'll have to use fire in the future, so you have to make some preparations.

In the end, Wu Junlan's speed is one step faster, and as soon as Fang Jiaren has made preparations, Wu Junlan has already succeeded in taking fire.

Wu Junlan probably turned the guilt of not making a fire for so long to drilling wood for fire. That's why it succeeded so quickly.

"Don't stop, you go on." Wen Xian looked at the smoking withered grass, her eyes straightened.

She hurriedly lay down and tried her best to ignite the spark of smoke. Then he pulled more dead grass and led the fire to the firewood that had already been piled up on the side.

The firewood pile was overhead in the middle, and there was a lot of dead grass underneath.

As soon as the burning dead grass was thrown in, the whole firewood pile ignited with a "boom".

"Success, success!" Fang Jiaren held a dagger in one hand and a sharpened wooden stick in the other, and excitedly circled around the fire.

Who would have thought that she would be able to see the success of drilling wood for fire and experience it herself.

Jiang Lingling, who had just returned from the beach, heard Fang Jiaren's cry and ran in. When I saw the bonfire lit, my eyes lit up.

She was quick with her eyes and hands, and with a "bang", she threw something directly into the fire.

"What did you throw in? It's a little fragrant. Fang Jiaren couldn't help but swallow when he smelled the fragrance.

The corners of Wen Xian's mouth twitched slightly, a little speechless. Sure enough, it's a child, and after such a toss, the child's heart is fully stimulated.

"She's throwing cat's eye snails." She explained for Jiang Lingling, "Cat's eye snails can be boiled or roasted, although the conditions do not allow it now, it is best to roast or fry them through a stone slab." ”

Anyway, she just threw it in the fire, she hadn't eaten it.

"Ah, am I doing something wrong?" Jiang Lingling said weakly, "But we picked up a lot, and there are still outside." ”

After she finished speaking, she was about to run out, wanting to get other cat's eye snails, but was stopped by Fang Jiaren's exit.

"Wait."

Fang Jiaren took a stick and dug it into the fire, dug out the roasted half-cooked cat's eye snail, patted the dust, and took it to smell it.

"I think it's okay to eat it this way, my grandfather once said that the food baked in the fire sticks to some plant ashes, which can dissipate cold and swelling, and eliminate disease and accumulation. In short, eat the dead. ”

She sighed lightly and continued: "Now that there is so little food, you can save it, and you can eat this." ”

After Fang Jiaren finished speaking, he started directly, picked out a small piece of snail meat and entered the mouth, and his eyes instantly lit up: "It's so fresh!" Let's go, Lingling, you take me to see the others, and let's study how to make it delicious. ”

Wen Xian and Wu Junlan glanced at each other, but they were speechless.

Anyway, the household waiter's family is so volume, Fang Jiaren still understands medical science?

Xu saw her doubts, and Wu Junlan opened her mouth to explain: "She is a good cook, knows medicinal diets, and learned from her grandfather." ”

Wen Xian raised her eyebrows and blurted out: "It's a life-saving ability." ”

He can cook food, and he won't starve to death wherever he goes. I don't know how to raise a child in the household waiter, but he is willing to let his daughter learn to cook.

Oh, forgot, you can please the emperor.

The fire was lit, and Wen Xian took Wu Junlan to burn another pile. There are so many of them that one fire is not enough.

As soon as the two fires were burned, I saw the white rose grinding along the cave wall, looking at Wen Xian and stopping.

Wen Xian tilted her head: "What's wrong?" ”

"Madam, Queen," said White Rose, biting her tongue, "the eldest sister has not come back yet." ”
