He took out a bottle filled with water from his backpack and began to focus the sunlight to make a fire.

As for the materials for making fire, they are the pine cones and pine needles that we picked up.

Section 1#Volume 2 A stable food source is the first step to development: Chapter 99 The girl who went from screaming in pain to panting

The fire was lit very quickly, and after some fragrant pine needles burned, a pine-like smell spread in the air.

After smelling it, Zhang Liu felt quite comfortable, even a little energized.

However, he also placed a pine cone on the fire and lit it, then threw it into his small clay bowl, ready to test how long this thing could burn.

As for the preservation of the fire, Zhang Liu planned to use a method of "corrupted leaf preservation" that he had learned from the wilderness survival video.

Basically, the bark is rolled into a tube with one end fully ventilated and the other end left half ventilated.

Put the rotten leaves first, then the fire.

Wait until smoke starts to come out from inside, then seal half of the surface with dirt to create a smoldering state inside.

It is said that it can guarantee more than two hours.

Therefore, as long as rotten leaves are continuously added to the road and the carrier is not damaged, the fire should theoretically be able to be maintained continuously.

He didn't think he would not find rotten leaves in this mountain.

He picked up a large pile of firewood from the side, expanded and stabilized the fire, and then Zhang Liu began to make a simple stove with the soft mud that was readily available in the stream.

When he set out today, he took the clay plate with him.

Zhang Liu planned to use it to make himself a bowl of steaming rabbit soup to boost morale during his break.

Last night, he suddenly missed his family, which made him feel very depressed.

This also made Zhang Liu understand one thing, that is, he must find a way to adjust his mentality at any time to prevent himself from giving up again.

But he also has his own way of adjusting his mind, which is to find fun in small things.

Right now, in this desolate mountain and wilderness, being able to eat a bowl of hot meat soup is definitely one of the little pleasures.

The stove was built quickly. After poking it a few times with his fingers to confirm its sturdiness, Zhang Liu placed the clay plate on it.

Pour filtered boiled water and rabbit meat into it and start the most primitive "casserole stew"

After clearing away the dead grass and branches around him that could cause a wildfire, he headed for the pine forest.

Before leaving, Zhang Liu also glanced at the pine cone burning in the small bowl. It was still burning very stably. He hoped that it would not have gone out when he returned.

What disappointed him was that the gap he had just made on the pine tree trunk did not secrete too much resin. Only a little milky white juice covered the wound.

Zhang Liu collected all the resin using a leaf picked up from nearby. Looking at the small pile of gel-like liquid on it, he suddenly had the urge to smile helplessly.

He felt that even if he spit a little more saliva, it would be more than this little resin.

But to be honest, the resin is quite viscous.

He dipped his finger in it and twisted it lightly with two fingers. Several uses of this thing quickly flashed through Zhang Liu's mind.

He carefully placed the hard-earned resin aside, then swung the bladed side of the fire hammer and began to chop down the tree.

Pine trees, which are rich in oil, are very rare in the tropics.

So Zhang Liu planned to cut down some thicker tree trunks to use as torch materials.

By the way, find a way to peel off the entire bark to make fire equipment.

....................................

At this moment in the cave, Anya, who was processing rabbits on the beach, met Su Yanlan Yueting who had "returned from hunting".

As a "professional food handler", she took on the task of skinning and gutting the snake without hesitation, and even complained that the two men had beaten the snake so hard that its "skin, bones and flesh were separated".

Seeing the other party's fierce behavior of grabbing her directly with his hands, Su Yan's already pale face became even more pale with fright.

Why didn't she realize before that this playmate had such a tough side?

However, when she was with Su Yan, Lan Yueting's mood was not very high.

After experiencing such a dangerous scene, she missed her warm and safe home so much.

The two of them quickly reached the vicinity of the cave.

But before they entered the cave, they heard strange noises.

"Classmate Qin Ruoyan, please don't do this... I can't stand it anymore." First, Gu Qingrou spoke while panting.

"It's okay, it just hurts a little at the beginning, but you will feel comfortable after a while..." Compared to Gu Qingrou's weak voice, Qin Ruoyan's voice was extremely strong at this moment.

At the same time, there was Qin Ruoshuang's quite confident voice.

"Don't worry, classmate Gu Qingrou, my sister has great skills!"

Then came Gu Qingrou’s scream.

After a few minutes, the screams gradually turned into moans, and finally ended with a slightly trembling soprano voice.

Looking at each other, Lan Yueting and Su Yan didn't dare to think about what happened in the cave.

I just instinctively felt that the two of us shouldn't go in.

But at this moment, Qin Ruoshuang's voice came from the entrance of the cave.

"Su Yan, Yue Ting, you're back!" Qin Ruoshuang poked her head out from above, her face full of gentle smiles.

"Ah... I'm back." Subconsciously taking a half step back, Su Yan looked at Qin Ruoyan who had emerged from Qin Ruoshuang's side and Gu Qingrou, whose face was flushed, with a little caution and said, "Can I ask what you were doing just now?"

Beside her, Lan Yueting also had a nervous expression.

"I didn't do anything." Qin Ruoyan looked a little confused.

After all, the expressions of Su Yan and Lan Yueting at this moment really made people feel strange.

"I didn't do anything...why did classmate Gu Qingrou make such a sound!" Hiding behind Su Yan, Lan Yueting asked.

"Student Gu Qingrou had lower abdominal pain after her period, so I gave her a massage. Was there any sound?" Qin Ruoyan looked at Gu Qingrou beside her with a strange look on her face.

As the one being massaged, Gu Qingrou had no idea how ecstatic her screams were, and her face was immediately filled with confusion.

Instead, Qin Ruoshuang touched her chin and began to recall.

She suddenly began to feel that Gu Qingrou's cry did seem to make people associate...

"Really... is it just a massage?" Su Yan walked into the cave with a strong sense of vigilance and asked Gu Qingrou, whom she currently trusted more.

"Yes! The effect is very strong. My stomach doesn't hurt anymore!" Nodding vigorously, Gu Qingrou now regarded Qin Ruoyan as a miracle doctor.

The warm feeling in her lower abdomen really made her feel comfortable.

"I think you'll feel pain again after nightfall, so I'll give you another massage then." Qin Ruoyan took out a jaboticaba from the package Lan Yueting put down and began to peel it. While eating the fruit to replenish her energy, she looked at Lan Yueting beside her with a little concern and asked, "You look a little ugly..."

Section 1#Volume 2 A stable food source is the first step to development: Chapter 100 Optimists are the mortal enemy of depression

"Hmm..." Hearing Qin Ruoyan's words, Lan Yueting nodded, and then whispered: "I miss home a little."

"Do you miss home..." Hearing her words, all the girls in the cave fell into a depressed mood.

There was no one present who did not miss the affluent life at home.

It’s just that no one has said it before, so everyone just defaults to not mentioning it.

At this moment, when Lan Yueting spoke up, this "default balance" was broken.

In everyone's heart, they began to recall the wonderful life before the disaster when they had no worries about food and clothing and someone took care of everything.

"What's wrong with you?" Anya, who had just finished processing snake meat and rabbit meat and was carrying a large giant clam shell, walked into the cave and looked at her depressed companions with surprise.

"I want to go home..." Lan Yueting pursed her lips, and then whispered about her experience: "When I was picking fruit today..."

"So it's this snake! No, I want to eat a few more bites. It was this thing that scared me last time!" After listening to Lan Yueting's tragic experience, Anya not only did not get depressed, but became excited: "I was wondering why the skin of this guy felt so familiar when I was peeling it..."

Anya's optimism is like a spark of hope. When all the girls are feeling bad about themselves, she successfully brings a happy atmosphere.

Then the cave returned to its former state of conversation and laughter, as if the collective sadness just now had never happened.

But Qin Ruoyan also glanced at Lan Yueting who was forcing a smile.

She instinctively felt that the other person's emotions had really changed too much.

Is it time for menstruation?

Faced with this situation, Qin Ruoyan could only make such a guess.

After discussion among the girls, they finally decided to cook a meat soup with snake meat and rabbit meat as lunch.

Add half water into the alloy pot, then put in the snake meat and rabbit meat cut into small pieces. After increasing the heat, all that's left is to wait until they are completely stewed before adding salt.

While the six girls were picking fruits and looking forward to lunch, Zhang Liu, who was resting on the mountainside, had already started eating his rabbit soup.

"Well, it's delicious when stewed!" Chewing the slightly tough rabbit meat in his mouth, he nodded with satisfaction.

Although it is only a ceramic plate about half a finger deep.

But after adding water, it can indeed play a role similar to that of a soup pot.

After all, rabbit meat with soup and dry roasted rabbit are two completely different concepts when you put them in your mouth.

Although the former is slightly dry, as long as it is cut into small enough pieces, it can be swallowed in one gulp.

The latter, on the other hand, needs to be chewed repeatedly, and the taste is the same as boiled chicken breast...

After lunch, Zhang Liu began to prepare torches.

He had just chopped down several pieces of pine wood that were as thick as arms and about one meter long.

In order to prevent failure, Zhang Liu followed the methods in the wilderness survival videos 100%.

Use the bladed side of a fire hammer to split a gap of approximately the same size at the top of the pine wood, and then insert the pine cones one by one horizontally and crosswise into the gap in the pine wood.

The gap is about one-third of the entire torch. Every time two cross-placed pine cones are stuffed in, a layer of pine needles is placed in between to serve as a combustion aid.

The top layer is stuffed with a ball of "old man's beard" that can be found everywhere in the mountains as a fire starter.

One pine log can hold three groups, or six pine cones, and then the bottom of the crack can be tightly wrapped with vines.

In this way, the simple torch is completed.

Zhang Liu had just done a test and found that a pine cone could burn for just enough time to finish the meal.

If two are used together, the firepower may increase, causing the burning speed to increase.

But if it is used as an emergency measure when necessary, it should be enough.

The next task was to test the specific burning conditions of the torch. He did not light the torch directly on the fire.

Instead, he took out a handful of old man's whiskers from the side and used a wooden stick to dig a small piece of charcoal out of the fire.

What Zhang Liu wanted to test was whether he could use fire to light the torch.

After all, in his opinion, he would never care about doing something dangerous like leaving the fire at night when he was full and had nothing to do.

Using fire to ignite the old man's beard, and then using the old man's beard to ignite the pine cone torch for emergency use, is the correct way to open the torch that Zhang Liu envisioned.

So just in case, he planned to simulate that extreme emergency situation.

The old man's beard was very dry, so he used a small piece of red charcoal and blew gently. In less than a few seconds, a small flame was ignited in front of Zhang Liu.

Without hesitation, he placed the newly made torch on top of his head.

The old man on the top of the torch was ignited directly, and then the flame licked the pine cones and the slightly damp pine wood next to it, making a slight "sizzling" sound.

Half a minute later, Zhang Liu looked at the burning torch in his hand and nodded with satisfaction.

The fact that it can be ignited in this way shows that there is absolutely no problem using the pine torch as an emergency torch.

After sticking the torch into the ground, he only needed to complete the tools to preserve the fire before he could start building a shelter and prepare to spend the night.

The bark strips have been cut from a whole ring from a tamarind tree.

At this point, he would no longer consider issues of environmental protection and sustainable development.

There is not just one tamarind tree but dozens of them in a row.

These large pieces of bark that were easy to peel off were a pleasant surprise for Zhang Liu.
