Chapter 66 Drilling wood to make fire
Hou Yao picked up his thermos cup again and took a sip with a smile.

"Dear viewers, I will announce a major program arrangement next, that is, our program team will not carry out rescue operations for Zhong Tao for the time being."

As soon as Hou Yao said this, the barrage exploded.

"What do you mean, if you don't save me, you are going to kill the master, right?"

"I bet, this Hou Yao is so despicable and shameless, he is just playing dirty tricks, right? Aren't you going to let Zhong Tao spend the night in the forest to torture Zhong Tao?"

"God damn it, do you even know what you are talking about? Isn't this bitch director crazy?"

Faced with the doubts about the barrage, Hou Yao was naturally ready with his words.

"Please note that I just said that the program team will not rescue Zhong Tao for the time being. It does not mean that we will not rescue No. [-]. We can see that Zhong Tao is not in danger of life now and does not need any emergency rescue. We It doesn’t count as desperate.”

"As for the second point, it is because accidentally rolling down the ravine itself is a part of mountain village life. Since Master Zhong Tao came to our "Metamorphosis" to undergo transformation and wants to experience a complete mountain village life, he should accept the possibility of spending the night in the mountain forest. Sex, if we all help Master Zhong Tao when he encounters any difficulties, "Metamorphosis" will deviate from the purpose of the program."

Hou Yao's words left the audience speechless, not because they were speechless, but because their views were shocked.

I have never seen such a shameless person!
Hou Yao said it nicely, saying that this move was to let Zhong Tao experience the dangers of mountain village life, but in fact anyone with a little bit of intelligence could see that Hou Yao was taking advantage of Zhong Tao's predicament to add insult to injury. !

Anyone with a little bit of conscience would immediately launch a rescue operation for Zhong Tao and Yaya, but Hou Yao and the entire program team actually chose to stand by and watch because of their money and reputation!
There is no moral limit to this!
"The Min Provincial Folk Culture Research Department hereby lodges a strong protest!"

“The Blue Ocean Finance Association lodges a strong protest!”

"Animal Magazine has lodged a strong protest. Our company has retained the video materials and will hold the program team legally responsible!"

At this moment, even the official accounts could no longer stand it and all stood up to speak out.

Hou Yao's expression changed slightly, but he did not reply directly to the official account.

Now in order to completely defeat Zhong Tao, Hou Yao is determined to make a desperate move!

"Okay, let's cut back to the camera and see what Master Zhong Tao is doing now." Following Hou Yao's instructions, the perspective switched back to the drone again.

In the rain, Zhong Tao and Yaya were still walking through the forest.

The two figures looked particularly small and helpless against the backdrop of the vast mountain forest, which made the audience feel bitter.

"Well, it's okay to inform Zhong Tao and Yaya that they have been discovered."

"Yes, Zhong Tao and Yaya must feel that they have been ignored now. They are deep in the mountains, and they don't know how desperate they feel."

"Look at Yaya picking up branches in despair and jumping around in despair."

"Hey, wait, something is wrong. Why do Mao Zhongtao and Yaya look so happy? What are they doing? They seem to be collecting wood!"

"I'm going, Zhong Tao has a full bundle on his back!"

"What is going on? Don't tell me that Zhong Tao is going to have a wilderness survival adventure now!"

"It's still raining in these deep mountains and old forests. Isn't it too difficult?"

"I don't even know what to say. Zhong Tao and Yaya are really not afraid at all. They are too caring!"

When a normal person falls down a ravine and finds no one to rescue him, his willpower almost collapses on the spot.

And Zhong Tao and Yaya actually started collecting materials as if they were camping?
The audience was speechless for a moment and didn't know what to say.

"Brother, this branch can be used too!" At the scene, Yaya picked up a dry branch from under the tree and excitedly handed it to Zhong Tao's hand.

In fact, Yaya was very scared and panicked when she first rolled into the ravine.

However, children are very easily influenced by the adults around them. When Yaya noticed that her brother Zhong Tao looked calm and even smiled and asked Yaya to play a game of picking up branches, Yaya's inner fear was diluted. .

Even Yaya was a little excited inside.

Normally, if she went too deep into the woods to play, Chen Qiuxia would definitely give her a fight, but today she finally had enough fun!

Zhong Tao took Yaya's dry branch, inspected it, plucked off the dry leaves from the branch and put it in his pocket, then tied the branch with cloth strips and carried it behind his back.

Although it was a rainy day, fortunately it was not raining heavily. Some leafy trees were enough to form a natural rain shelter, so dry branches were not difficult to find.

If it rains harder, you may have to go to some caves to find dry branches.

"Brother, we have picked up so many branches, are we going to build a house?"

Yaya asked Zhong Tao curiously while continuing to search for branches.

Zhong Tao smiled and shook his head: "It's to light a fire. Our clothes are all wet and we need a fire to dry them."

Yaya was stunned. She tilted her head and thought for a while, but she still didn't understand how Zhong Tao wanted to make a fire.

In the past, when Yaya lived at home, she always had lighters and matches. At most, Chen Qiuxia occasionally used flint to light a fire once or twice.

How was her brother going to make a fire with nothing but a pile of wood?
"Does Zhong Tao want to drill wood to make fire?"

Hou Yao stared at the picture of the drone and sneered.

As a senior enthusiast of outdoor exploration, Hou Yao could roughly guess what Zhong Tao wanted to do as soon as he saw Zhong Tao collecting branches.

However, although the method of making fire by drilling wood is very famous, in actual operation, almost no one chooses to use this ancient method to make fire in the wild.

You know, making fire by drilling wood is not as simple as shown on TV.

On TV, you just need to sharpen the head of a wooden stake, sprinkle some kindling when done, and drill hard into the wood used as a chopping board. Smoke will come out soon, and you can start a fire.

But in fact, only those who have actually drilled wood to make fire know how troublesome it is to drill wood to make fire!
As a primitive method of making fire, drilling wood to make fire may seem to require the least materials, but its operability is also very low.

First of all, not all wood can be used to drill wood to make fire.

The wooden stakes used for "drilling" must be hard enough. Common walnut, oak, and birch are better choices. As for the "drilled" chopping board, the wood must be soft enough. Generally, poplar and willow are used. .
It's definitely not possible for people like Zhong Tao and Yaya to randomly pick a mess of branches.

Second, drilling wood to make fire also requires a considerable degree of skill. Drilling wood to make fire seems simple, but in fact there are many ways to do it.

For example, when drilling wood, it is not that the faster the better, but to ensure that the drill pipe is rubbed at a uniform speed, and the balance of the drill pipe must be ensured when rubbing the drill pipe. If it tilts while drilling wood to make fire, it will Directly failed.

The most important thing is that drilling wood to make fire actually requires very high strength from the operator!
This is also the most difficult part of drilling wood to make fire!

Everyone knows the principle of friction and heat generation, but laymen have no idea how much friction is needed to drill wood to make fire.

Generally speaking, ordinary people who have not undergone long-term training, even if they have mastered the skills of drilling wood to make fire and selected the correct wood, do not have sufficient physical strength to drill wood to achieve enough heat energy to make a fire.
