Chapter 41: The Town

Tian Li's face was a little pale. The boy glanced at her, but didn't say anything, but grabbed the fish fluttering on the ground and walked up the slope.

After a long time, Tian Li came back to her senses, and she slowly walked up the slope. Yin Xingyuan was dealing with it above, and the fish was out of breath after being processed and no longer moved. A large hole was opened in the belly of the fish, and there was no sight of blood spilling all over the ground.

Tian Li was in a trance, she went to each tree by herself to try to find some scattered branches to make a fire. She gathered a few branches together and began to study the most primitive technique of drilling wood for fire.

Although she has not survived in the wild, she still has some basic common sense.

For example, after drilling out of Mars, you need to use flammable materials to start a fire, and the best local materials are to use dead grass and dead leaves.

Tian Li looked around and gathered some dry vegetation; But drilling wood for fire has obviously also become a manual job.

She found two branches of moderate thickness, then took them in a gap and began to quickly delve into the rubbing, trying to make some sparks.

It stands to reason that this kind of drilling wood for fire requires extremely fast friction to strike a spark. After turning like this for a while, her hands were grinded to pain.

The palms of the hands were rubbed red, and even a little red and swollen, but there was no sign of fire.

Surviving in the wild or something, it's really not suitable for her.

If Zhang Xincheng was here at this time, with her strength, she would definitely be able to do everything.

Thinking of Zhang Xincheng, Tian Li sighed silently. I don't know if the other party is still alive now.

In a daze, the young man appeared in front of Tian Li at some point.

Tian Li subconsciously felt a little overwhelmed, because she didn't do anything well, almost all of it was done by Yin Xingyuan. Whether it's picking fruit or catching fish.

Yin Xingyuan didn't speak, he spread out his palm and sent it to Tian Li's eyes. She took a look and saw that the other party had two stone-like things in his hand, which were dark in color.

"It's... Flint and steel? Tian Li asked.

Although she felt that this stone looked no different from an ordinary stone, it was impossible for Yin Xingyuan to give her two stones for no reason.

The boy answered, then picked up a few branches she had picked up and left.

Tian Li began to concentrate on the fire. With flint, making a fire is much easier; After she sparked, little by little she used flammable dry grass and dead leaves to increase the flames, and the flames gradually formed a small fire.

Tian Li felt relieved, after all, she didn't do nothing.

She was immersed in the guilt of Yin Xingyuan, and she didn't realize that the other party had actually observed her over there for a long time, and let her drill wood until her palms were red and swollen before taking out the flint.

The fire was crackling and burning. Tian Li stood up, planning to go over there to see if there was anything she could do to help.

Yin Xingyuan seems to have done everything right. He erected a simple wooden frame, and the fish were also processed and strung on the branches.

The next step is to wait quietly.

Tian Li stared at the grilled fish on the shelf in a daze.

To be honest, although she can cook, she has never handled fish because she hates eating fish and hates it.

The smell of meat came quickly, and after walking so far and working for so long, I was also a little hungry in my stomach. Tian Li thought of the bread left in her pocket, so she also took a branch, skewered the bread from the top, and put it on the fire to bake it together.

"Sister, I ate too much bread, and I won't be able to eat the grilled fish for a while."

Seeing that Tian Li was eating the toasted bread one bite at a time, the young man said softly.

This black hard bread is much softer when baked, and when you chew it carefully, you can even taste a faint barley flavor, and it is not difficult to swallow.

She knew that this bread tasted good when baked, and she wouldn't have eaten dry hard bread with light vegetable soup during her days at the castle.

"I'll just eat the bread, you can keep it and eat it."

In short, she can't tell him openly that she hates fish.

Yin Xingyuan didn't ask any more. After the two of them filled their stomachs, it became a question of whether to go or stay.

It was not early today, Tian Li decided to stay outside for another night, and wait for tomorrow to go down the mountain to the town to have a look.

She didn't want to spend the remaining 20 days sleeping outside, not to mention the living environment, and her physical health alone became a big problem.

In case of another windy and rainy weather, the temperature will be cooled down, and sooner or later you will get sick.

The wind is warm tonight, and although the temperature is low at night, it is bearable. At sunrise the next day, the two set out on the road to town.

It's said to be a town, but it's just going down the mountain. It's just that they plan to move far away from the location of the castle, in case the group of people in the castle are still looking for them outside.

Tian Li probably thought that she needed to find a job with food and accommodation, as long as she endured these twenty days and mixed until the end of the deduction, she could leave smoothly.
