Once there is a slope, the rainwater outside will seep in directly. No matter how much firewood you put, it will be useless because the fire will go out after a long time!
So what Zhang Liu has to use now is the rolling stone method that he hasn’t used for a long time.
If you want to find stones in the jungle, it is very simple. Just put three red-hot stones into the alloy pot, accompanied by a "hissing" sound.
After a while, a pot of boiling water was ready.
He was not in a hurry to drink or use it. He first took out the three stones and put them back into the fire to heat them again.
Then Zhang Liu waited silently by the side. When the water temperature gradually became warm, he took out the three bottles in his schoolbag and began to wash and fill them with water.
After this operation, only two-thirds of the water in the alloy pot was left.
After ensuring drinking water today.
Zhang Liu put the three stones from the fire into the alloy pot, and with a hissing sound, the second boiling began.
But this time, he also put a piece of "meat floss pancake" in the pot of water.
Accompanied by a rich aroma, about ten minutes later, a pot of "broth" was ready.
Drink the hot broth, then clean the alloy pot with the water in the sheepskin bag.
After packing everything up, Zhang Liu picked up the book basket and set off again.
However, this time the weight in the basket behind him increased by about ten kilograms, because the sheepskin bag was filled with fresh water.

However, after Zhang Liu walked for a while, the rain that was falling on him suddenly stopped.
Moreover, the entire sky became noticeably brighter, which in turn increased the visible range in the jungle.
But this did not bring much convenience to Zhang Liu.
For safety reasons, he still insisted on using the alloy pipe to continuously hit the grass in front of him, making a sound, thereby alerting any snakes and insects inside to leave quickly.
It’s better to avoid the embarrassing situation where a snake bites someone and the person dies after eating the snake.
At the same time, Bamboo House No. 3 on the mountainside has been completely completed.
Currently, eight girls are working in groups.
Su Yan was responsible for feeding the pigs and cleaning up their excrement.
As for Anya, Lan Yueting and Xiang Wanying, they went down the mountain in the rain to get meat.
After waiting for the rain to stop, Gu Qingrou decided to go into the bamboo forest to look for any delicious bamboo fungus.
Qin Ruoyan, Qin Ruoshuang and Xiang Lingying were currently carrying wood into bamboo house No. 3, which was to be used as a firewood room.
"Great! With this word, we can put the dried firewood here!" Qin Ruoyan spoke as she and Qin Ruoshuang carried a piece of wood weighing more than ten pounds into the house.
This was when the two of them went to the bamboo forest to pick bamboo fungi yesterday morning when it wasn't raining. They didn't see any bamboo fungi but saw this, so they picked it up as a trophy.
At that time, because it was damp, the weight was much heavier than it is now. The two of them were almost exhausted after carrying it to the mountainside...
"Yes!" Qin Ruoshuang nodded vigorously and cooperated with her sister to put the rough wood in the corner of the bamboo house. Then she twisted her waist to relieve her strength and suggested: "Sister, why don't we use it to burn charcoal?"
"Burning charcoal?" Hearing her sister's words, Qin Ruoyan subconsciously asked, "Why?"
"Because charcoal doesn't produce any smoke! I've been choking to death these days!" Qin Ruoshuang said with a bitter face, "Even if wet wood is dried, it will still produce a lot of smoke!"
After hearing her sister's words, Qin Ruoyan nodded slightly.
She has a high tolerance level, so she doesn't care too much about the smoke.
But now my sister has spoken like this.
As an elder sister, Qin Ruoyan felt that she needed to do something for her.
But for now, she had to walk out of Bamboo House No. 3 and continue to move the dried wood that was being produced.
At this moment, about five meters away from bamboo house No. 3, a huge fire was burning, surrounded by a pile of wet wood that was sizzling and smoking.
The reason why there is a big bonfire here is because there is a pig trough and two foot basins inside it.
The main purpose of this huge bonfire was to burn pottery.
As for the roasted wood, it is just an additional value.
Just as Qin Ruoyan was carrying wood and thinking about how to burn charcoal on a large scale.
A white-haired girl humming a little tune passed by.
It was Su Yan who came back from feeding the pigs.
After holding her breath and using a stone shovel to clean the excrement of the little yellow and little white cats into the composting pond nearby, she has been in a good mood.
I can even hum some rhythm now.
Although the job I won due to bad luck was quite dirty, the reward was that I could stay in a relatively relaxed state for the rest of the day.
Su Yan planned to go up the mountain to take a bath and then bring down some taro.
"Yan Yan, are you free now?" Qin Ruoyan called out to the white-haired girl who was humming a little tune as she passed by, and said, "I want to go to the taro field with you and Ruoshuang to burn some charcoal."
"Burn? Charcoal?" Su Yan blinked in confusion. Her mind was full of taking a bath and she didn't understand the other person's words for a moment.
"Yeah!" Qin Ruoyan nodded vigorously and said, "Wet wood is too easy to produce smoke, so I plan to burn some charcoal now that it's not raining!"
"Ah! Charcoal...how...how to burn it?" Although Su Yan understood a little, her tone was still confused.
Then she was pulled into bamboo house No. 1 by Qin Ruoyan to discuss the plan in detail.
Seeing what the two did, Qin Ruoshuang and Xiang Lingying also walked in. Soon, Gu Qingrou, who had just returned from picking bamboo fungus, also joined the discussion...
Because among the group of people, Qin Ruoyan was the only one who ignored the smoke from the burning wet wood. The other girls already felt disgusted.
Sitting around a piece of curtain cloth, they continued to perfect the "pit digging and firing method" proposed by Qin Ruoyan according to their own ideas...
Just as the people on the mountainside were preparing to burn charcoal.
Anya, Xiang Wanying and Lan Yueting had already come down the mountain and arrived near the original bamboo house. After completing the construction of bamboo house No. 3 early in the morning, they went down the mountain in the rain wearing double-layer curtains.
Anya and Xiang Wanying squeezed together.
Lan Yueting can use one piece by herself because she has bigger breasts.
This also means that there is only one piece of curtain cloth left in Bamboo House No. 1 for everyone to use.
Before going down the mountain, Xiang Wanying learned from her eldest daughter the whole process of Zhang Liu using traps to kill sheep.
So as she walked down, she had already thought about the overall plan in her mind.
Standing near the bamboo house, Xiang Wanying looked at the waterlogged grassland in front of her and said, "It's definitely not okay to set traps in a wet place like this. I've heard from goat farmers in the manor that goats like dry places and don't like wet places, and salt will melt quickly."
"Yes!" After hearing Xiang Wanying's words, Lan Yueting nodded silently, and then she said: "Then let's act according to the original plan. Let's collect firewood here first to ensure safety at night, and then go to the goat jungle to dig traps?"
If you want to catch sheep with a trap, it is definitely a patient job.
Therefore, Xiang Wanying and others made a complete three-day plan in advance and brought enough taro to last for three days as food reserves.
The schedule is very simple:
We went down the mountain this morning. In the morning, we tidied up the bamboo house that we built at the beginning, collected firewood and made a fire. In the afternoon, we started digging traps.
Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow will be the time for waiting.
If they failed to catch the sheep, the three of them would go up the mountain to collect taro, which also included taro stems and taro leaves, two kinds of food for feeding pigs.
After all, the taro on the mountainside should have been almost eaten by then.
Hearing Lan Yueting's question, Xiang Wanying also spoke up to confirm: "Let's act according to this plan. I will take care of the bamboo house and the fire. Please go find some firewood nearby."
Nodding, Anya and Lan Yueting each found a direction and started collecting wood. They each held a half-meter long machete in their hands as a precautionary measure.
After watching the two people leave, Xiang Wanying walked into the bamboo house and began to look at the situation carefully.
This is thanks to Zhang Liu’s natural “hamster storing food” character.
So even though this place hasn't been used for a long time, there's still a lot of wood left.
And because it was not exposed to direct rain, after removing the damp layer of wood on the outside, the inside was still relatively dry, which fully met the requirements for making a fire.
Chapter 7 is too long, so it takes two girls to hold it
He moved the damp wood covering the outside away, then picked up a piece of dry wood from Xiang Wanying and held it in front of her to check its dryness.
After looking at it carefully, she was sure that this thing could be used directly to make fire.
Then Xiang Wanying suddenly imagined a picture of a boy stacking wood with a serious look on his face.
What a careful boy he is... Fortunately I didn't miss it.
It's a pity that I won't be able to see him in the short term, and I can't be sure of his safety...
Thinking about the adventure that her beloved boy was taking, a certain head maid suddenly began to feel depressed.
I know that this is not good.
So after taking a deep breath, Xiang Wanying tried hard to suppress the lovesickness in her heart. Then she took out the flint and tinder for making fire from the lining pocket of her maid skirt.
It is only thanks to the maid skirt's complete waterproof function that Xiang Wanying dares to carry it like this.
If it were Anya or Lan Yueting, the fire and pyrite would have been soaked long ago.
"Da da da da da da..." Along with the knocking sound of the pyrite in Xiang Wanying's hand, she successfully made the warm fire that had been extinguished for a long time appear again in the earthen stove of the first bamboo house.
Put dry wood in and place the wet wood next to the earthen stove to dry. Xiang Wanying can clearly feel that after starting to live in the bamboo house, the dryness and warmth inside the house have been improved to a higher level.
At the same time, Zhang Liu had arrived at the last trace he had left, which was the triangular shelter about two hundred meters away from Xiang Wanying and Xiang Lingying.
When he walked here exactly according to the mark, he still felt a little disappointed. After all, this was the farthest mark he left in the jungle. The road ahead was unknown.
But now Zhang Liu had no time to sigh or feel sad. He took out a palm core from the book basket behind him and put it in his mouth to chew.
He stopped to take a few final looks before decisively passing by.
Zhang Liu’s goal is ahead, not here.
He planned to collect some unrotten fruits around the open space ahead and then continue on his journey.
But what disappointed Zhang Liu was that after arriving at the open space where the Xiang family's master and servant had been, he found that all the fruits on the fruit trees here had fallen to the ground.
Walking to the snake fruit tree full of sharp thorns, Zhang Liu bent down and picked up a snake fruit on the ground.
Before he could even peel it open, he had already determined that something had gone bad inside.
After all, how can a snake fruit be so soft to the touch?
Zhang Liu casually threw the snake fruit in his hand away, and he was too lazy to look at the egg yolk fruit on the ground about six meters away that had obviously turned brown.
After slightly adjusting the straps of the book basket behind him, he continued walking towards the jungle ahead.
This failed experience of finding fruits also taught Zhang Liu a lesson, which is not to trust fruits that fall on the ground on rainy days.
At the same time, Zhou Fang and other three people on the northern coast of the deserted island also began to arrange their respective division of labor.
Zhou Fang and Gu Xixi set out to the nearby woods to collect fruits, while Song Shuyao and Zhao Yiran began to make fire by rubbing two sticks together for the umpteenth time.
Zhao Yiran pressed her palm against a palm branch as thick as a finger that she had dried with her body, thereby applying pressure and increasing the contact surface.
As for Song Shuyao, she placed both of her palms flat on the palm tree branches and began to rub them frantically...
"Squeak... squeak..." Along with the sound that changed with the speed, a lot of black ash flakes had clearly appeared on the edge of the palm tree trunk...
Time quickly came to the afternoon.
The weather today was pretty good. It stopped raining when we set out in the morning and it hasn't continued to rain since.
Therefore, Zhang Liu felt that he had advanced quite a distance in the jungle.
Now when he looked up at the sky again, he could no longer see the vast gray sky as he had seen on the previous journey.
The gradually dense layer of leaves began to replace the role of the sky.
No matter how hard he looked and observed, Zhang Liu could only vaguely see some gray "sky fragments" and "cloud spots" through the gaps.
He sighed slightly in his heart and began to feel a little scared.
This situation is not good news for me.
Because of such dense branches, it is actually called the canopy.
