Cosmic bosses start from collecting trash

Chapter 105 Making a Fire
"I'll pick up some more firewood, you guys try to see if you can start a fire." Xiao Ze said.

He really didn't expect such a rotten trap to catch a stupid rabbit, God help me.

The girls were also very excited, and tried hard to raise the fire according to the method of drilling wood to make fire instructed by Xiao Ze.

Xiao Ze himself is also a dabbler, and the method of drilling wood to make fire is limited to theory.

Fang Chiqing was scratching his palm by a wooden thorn while drilling wood to make fire, and he couldn't help but cry out in pain.

Xiao Ze cut off a strip of Fang Chiqing's navel-baring clothing with a table knife and simply bandaged her wound. He didn't scold her for being clumsy, he just asked her to collect edible fungi and stop getting angry.

"You won't have tetanus, right?" Fang Chiqing asked worriedly.

"Tetanus is easy to be caused by scratches on rusty metal, and tetanus is easily caused by a random wound. How can human beings multiply to 80 billion?" Xiao Ze glanced at Fang Chi like a fool.

Fang Chiqing was speechless by Xiao Ze, and obediently ran to continue collecting fungi.

Xiao Ze saw that Jiang Qianyu and Shen Luoning's white and tender hands were already red even after rubbing the branches a few times, so he simply drove them to pick fungi.

Fang Chiqing and Shen Luoning had already picked all the fungi within a radius of about 50 meters around the shelter, except those that grew at high places, so they had to go further afield to pick fungi ingredients.

Because the coconut forest is far away.

Xiao Ze doesn't plan to pick coconuts today.

The efficiency of drilling wood to make fire is really too low, so Xiao Ze began to try hard to recall the process of making fire with a bow.

There are many plants similar to dandelions in the jungle, as well as a lot of dead grass dried by the sun. Xiao Ze can easily obtain tinder.

Xiao Ze carved grooves on the fire plate with a table knife, and then sharpened the fire stick to reduce friction, which saves more effort when using the bow drill.

Then there is the making of the bow drill.

According to his vague memory, Xiao Ze broke off a branch with better toughness, then took off the shoelace and tied it on both ends of the branch to form an ugly firebow. Then he wrapped the wooden stick around the shoelace and used A piece of gravel pressed the fire stick inserted into the groove and pulled it up.

Xiao Ze took a deep breath.

An afterimage appeared on his hand instantly.

The fire board kept emitting black smoke.

It took only 10 minutes for the fire to ignite.

While Xiao Ze was excited, he was also a little surprised.

Starting a fire doesn't seem that difficult.

But when he thinks he has a table knife to groove the fire-starter to sharpen the fire-stick, shoelaces to serve as fire-bow strings, and plenty of suitable tinder nearby
He also understood.

It's not that the fire is good, but that you are lucky.

Xiao Ze directly called all the girls over. At this time, he had transferred the sparks to the tinder, piled flammable small dry firewood into a cone, and surrounded it with thick wooden strips to control the fire. , to avoid excessive fuel consumption.

"You guys go and fan the fire with leaves, find a few stones to surround the fire, make it into a well shape, and eat roasted rabbit meat tonight." Xiao Ze showed a long-lost smile.

He had to rejoice.

This is an island that has no shortage of food.

The girls are busy.

Xiao Ze started to dispose of the dead rabbit.

He directly threw the rabbit's head into the strong fire, then passed a branch through the skinned hare, and set it on the fire to roast expectantly.

The girls fanned the leaves vigorously, smelling the aroma of the roasted rabbit meat, watching the rabbit meat sizzling, their eyes filled with longing.

After the girls surrounded the fire with stones, Xiao Ze broke up the cone-shaped fire, put the branches on the stones, and turned them over from time to time.

The hare is roasted in no time.

Xiao Ze naturally wouldn't distribute them equally, he ate the rabbit legs and most of the meat himself, and the rest of the rabbit meat and rabbit heads were the food for the girls.

Anyway, the fire had already started.

If you are not full, you can bake other food.

The girls have no complaints about it.

They dare not complain.

It is a very happy thing to be able to eat cooked meat in such an environment, so why expect too much?

For the first time, Xiao Ze felt that the barbecue without any seasoning turned out to be so delicious, and it was a joy to eat it.

The four of them wanted to eat all the bones.

Oh.
Xiao Ze really ate the bones.

If you cannot consume enough energy for a long time, it is best not to eat too much food at one time, otherwise it will easily cause stomach cramps and painful death.

But in the past two days, he hasn't been so hungry that he is about to die, so it's okay for Xiao Ze to eat enough tonight.

Excluding the inedible parts, one wild rabbit is certainly not enough for four people. After eating the rabbit meat, Xiao Ze threw a whole handful of green bananas into the stove.

That's it for today's sumptuous dinner.

After sharing the roasted bananas, Xiao Ze finally realized that he didn't seem to have much fresh water to quench his thirst after draining the water, so he quickly told a few girls to eat less, each of them only had 250ml of fresh water per day for the time being free distribution.

As the main force for survival, Xiao Ze naturally needs to drink at least one liter of fresh water every day to maintain his vitality.

After eating, Xiao Ze used plastic bags and coconut shells to dig two pits near the shelter, and made two devices that can be used to collect fresh water. It is conservatively estimated that each device can collect [-] milliliters of fresh water per day.

The fire of life has been ignited, and the next step is to find the water of life no matter what.

With such a big island, Xiao Ze doesn't believe that there is no fresh water.If it is impossible, we can only collect dew or distill seawater, but distilled water lacks the minerals needed by the human body. In addition to being relatively clean, drinking distilled water for a long time is not a good thing, and it can be avoided if possible.

Sea salt can be obtained by distilling sea water, and long-term consumption of sea salt is also harmful to the body, but who cares so much about this situation now.

Salt production is not a matter of immediate concern.

Put it aside for now.

Xiao Ze sighed, first heated yesterday's filtered water with coconut shells, and then poured it back in. After disinfecting the fresh water, he asked the girls to dig a hole under the shelter with him.

The pit was dug to transfer the fire into it.

This may have the effect of floor heating.

The shelter is indeed airtight, but how can the leaves block the erosion of the cold wind.

The temperature difference between day and night on the island reached sixty degrees.

Just terrifying.

"Go to sleep and collect coconuts tomorrow."

After Xiao Ze finished speaking, he got into the shelter.

The girls had never slept in such a hard bed, and they felt uncomfortable without pillows, so they tried to weave some pillows out of vines and leaves.

Xiao Ze naturally participated.

You don't have to sleep with your head up.

The cold wind howling at night woke him up several times.

How much he wanted to have a pair of earplugs at this time.

The shelter was very warm, Xiao Ze added a lot of firewood to the pit, and blocked it with mud, leaving only a hole for oxygen supply, so he was not worried that the fire would go out, and finally fell asleep in the middle of the night.
