i have a super island

Chapter 30 The Dilemma of Making Fire

At night, the sea breeze is refreshing.

Sitting in the pergola, Fang Fang and Li Qingman stared at the starry sky in a daze.

Sure enough, the astrology seen yesterday was real, and the night sky today is the same as last night, it is so familiar and strange, the sky is full of unknown stars.

Now it is almost certain that the island is very mysterious, there is no way to determine its location, let alone rescue, let's think about how to survive on the island.

Ever since he came to this island, he could only eat coconuts every day. At this moment, Equation already strongly felt that his body had become very weak. In addition to the work of making fences during the day, he didn’t even have the strength to move at this moment. , just want to stay quietly like this.

Gollum!
In the dead of night, a clear voice came from Fang Fang's stomach.

"Are you hungry?" Li Qingman came to Fang Fang.

"Hungry..." Seeing Li Qingman's gaze, Fang Fang blushed and scratched the back of his head embarrassingly.

Li Qingman didn't joke about the equation. She understood that the physical exertion of the equation was far greater than that of herself. The two of them lived together, and basically the heavy and tiring work was done by the equation, so she understood the feeling of the equation very well, and she was more interested in the equation. Compassionate and apologetic.

"Eating coconuts every day is really not enough, we have to find a way."

"I saw that goat during the day, and now my mind is full of mutton. As long as I close my eyes, it will come running in front of my eyes." Fang Fang almost drooled as he spoke. He doesn't like mutton, and always feels that mutton has a smell, but now he wants to eat a bite of mutton even in his dreams.

"I also want to eat..."

Li Qingman's cheeks were flushed, just like Equation. Both of them hadn't eaten cooked food for a long time. When it came to meat, how could they not move their index fingers.

It's okay if you don't say it, but it's like opening a sluice gate, and they can't stop at all, and the two of them are so greedy that they swallow their saliva.

Fang Fang covered his stomach, gritted his teeth and said, "No, I have to open a coconut to calm myself down."

Li Qingman said distressedly: "Can you still eat coconuts?"

This question got to Fang Fang's heart, and now his stomach is full of coconut water, his scalp tingles when he sees the coconut, how can he eat it.

"Forget it, I can't eat it."

Fang Fang stuffed the coconut into the corner, got up and went outside the arbor.

Li Qingman asked nervously: "What are you doing?"

"I need to find something to start a fire!"

Fang Fang walked into the woods without looking back, thinking to himself, isn’t it just to make a fire? It’s not like I haven’t seen the video of making fire by drilling wood. Those who survive in the wilderness can make a fire, but I don’t believe they can’t.

Anyway, Equation was hungry and crazy at that time, and he only thought about the goat, and everything else was blank.

"Hey, you're still going to the woods so late!" Li Qingman shouted nervously behind him.

"I can't take it anymore!" Fang Fang shouted to the sky.

"cut!"

Li Qingman spat lightly, and seeing Fang Fang sullen, he felt a little distressed and helpless, so he had no choice but to climb out of the arbor and follow him to the woods.

"Why are you here too? It's dangerous in the woods, you'd better stay in the arbor." Fang Fang heard footsteps behind him, and turned around to see Li Qingman chasing him.

"You also know the danger?" Li Qingman complained, "Did you dare to go alone?"

Fang Fang blushed and said, "I'm... very hungry..."

Li Qingman shook his head and said, "I really can't do anything about you."

After all, Li Qingman followed the equation and broke into the woods.

Compared with the first time the two entered the woods rashly at night, the result this time was much better, mainly because the woods were not so humid and walking was not so difficult.

And I don't know if it's because the wind and the sun made the equation rough and fleshy. Now he doesn't seem to be so afraid of the mosquitoes on the island, and even after being bitten, he won't be as itchy as before.

After walking around in the woods, looking for some dry wood, blocks, and sticks, Fang Fang returned to the arbor with a little satisfaction.

The fire will not start by itself, the next thing to do in the equation is to start the fire. First, find a hard wooden board to put it under, and then choose a wooden stick with the right size and length in your hand, and prepare a fire on the side. Pile of dried coconut fluff ripped from the coconut shell.

After everything was ready, Fang rubbed the wooden stick with both hands, and started to drill wood to make fire according to the method he learned on TV.

After a few simple attempts, Equation discovered the problem. When rubbing the stick, it would naturally fall down. Even if it started from the top of the stick, it fell to the bottom after a few rubs. Take the hand up, so that there will be a period of time to stop, and even if you try again and again, the end of the wooden stick rubbing against it will only heat up, and there will be no smoke.

When people are tired and hungry, it is easy to compete with themselves, and the equation is no exception. It seems that he has competed with drilling wood to make fire. He looks bitter and bitter, and he must succeed in making fire tonight. .

The failures again and again made the equation become restless, and the movements began to become louder, swearing non-stop.

"what!"

In the end, Equation broke out completely, angrily threw the wooden stick in his hand aside, and held his face in his hands. The failure to light the fire brought him a deep sense of frustration.

It is so simple to watch others light a fire, but it is a completely different situation when you want to light a fire yourself.

Seeing Fang Fang's sad expression, Li Qingman actually felt a little distressed for this man at this moment. Maybe he put too much pressure on himself, or maybe he should be able to help.

Li Qingman picked up the thrown wooden stick and sat on the opposite side of the equation.

"I'll be with you."

A simple sentence made Fang Yuan wake up from the situation where he was fighting with himself.

After calming down, Equation regained his calm state of mind, and nodded at Li Qingman.

So the two began to drill wood together to make fire. After one person's palm fell, the other's palm started to relay from the top.

In this way, unexpected results were achieved very quickly. With the joint efforts of the two, a smell of burning smoke can already be smelled, which makes people even more excited.

There is already smoke, and as long as it is faster, you can get Mars. Equation can't wait to use up every effort, just to rub the wooden stick faster, but no matter how hard the two try, they still can't break through the last step. The smoke has always been just smoke, there is no kindling.

After trying three times, Li Qingman was too tired to lift his arm, and all of them ended in failure.

"It still doesn't work..." Fang Fang was dejected.

"Is there any condition that has not been met?" Li Qingman said.

Fang Fang shook his head and said: "It seems that we can only go here today, don't worry about it, let's go to bed first."
