After all, girls are emotional beings and yearn for beautiful things.

"There will be a chance."Lin Xuan said with a slight smile.

He remembered that the girl's birthday seemed to be coming soon, so he had to give her a surprise anyway.

The two collected pine resin and filled the bamboo tubes. They returned to the camp when it was almost dark. As night fell, Lin Xuan and Chen Yiyi had a warm dinner and started to get busy.

The girl was weaving shoes and decided to make several pairs of shoes for Lin Xuan, so she started weaving whenever she was free.

Lin Xuan was making torches. He would have torches to light up the stove and let the heat inside dissipate.

Crackling.

He was scraping the wood powder with a hatchet, and he scraped very patiently with every knife.

"Lin Xuan, what are you doing with this?" Chen Yiyi couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

"This is one of the nuclear fuels of the torch."Lin Xuanzuiyu said with a smile

"Isn't there rosin? Just dip some on a stick and you can use it." Chen Yiyi said puzzledly

"No, it's easy to burn the rosin with a wooden stick. It's a waste of rosin."

Lin Xuan shook his head and explained,"The most durable method is to use mixed rosin."

"I understand."

Chen Yiyi nodded, not quite understanding, pointing to the sawdust powder on the table and said,"So. These sawdust should be mixed with rosin?""

"Yes, after mixing them in a certain proportion, stuff them into the bamboo slips. It will be a very good torch."Lin Xuan nodded and said

""Lin Xuan, how did you come up with this idea?" Chen Yiyi asked in surprise.

How could an ordinary person come up with such a method?

"I have seen the torches made in the movies and then modified them."Lin Xuan thought of the torches made of cloth and grease in the movie. He just used substitutes to modify them.

"You are really good." Chen Yiyi smiled and gave a thumbs up.

"Thank you for the compliment." Lin Xuan raised his eyebrows and cupped his hands.

Chen Yiyi rolled her eyes in a naive manner, then stopped what she was doing and looked at Lin Xuan. She wanted to learn how to make torches so that she could make torches by herself in the future.

Lin Xuan took a thick bamboo tube, put the sawdust powder in it, then used a bamboo piece to put a piece of rosin in it, and then used the bamboo piece to stir it so that the sawdust and rosin were fully mixed together.

Seeing that the girl was willing to learn, he explained the process,"The torches we make don't need to be very big, so we don't need too much bamboo. This way we can save some burning."

Lin Xuan found a meter-long bamboo that was as thick as a thumb, cut off a section of it, leaving only a thumb-long empty bamboo tube, which was used to plug the fuel.

"The bamboo joints need to be poked. Otherwise, the fire will burn here and cause an explosion."Lin Xuan, use a wooden stick to poke the joints.

When the bamboo joints encounter the burning of fire, there is a high probability that they will explode. If the burning resin splashes onto people when holding a torch, it will be a big trouble.

"Oh, so that's how it is." Chen Yiyi nodded in understanding.

Lin Xuan then used a wooden stick to clamp the mixed fuel of sawdust and rosin into the bamboo, and pressed it hard to compress it, so that the fire would burn more slowly.

He held up the torch and whispered,"This is how a torch is completed."

Chen Yiyi took the torch and sighed,"Why does it feel like a candle, not a torch?"

"Big torches need big bamboos, and these small torches are just right for use in shelters."Lin Xuan said softly.

"Do you want to try it?"Chen Yiyi was eager to try it.

"Use it, I just need to unseal the furnace." Lin Xuan nodded.
