They have already used simple wooden tools such as small tips on their arms to dig out a "gully" half a meter wide and more than ten centimeters deep around the shelter.

Of course, there is also the reason why they continuously moisten the soil with water to reduce the difficulty of digging.

Zhang Liu and Xiang Lingying, who are currently digging next to the pool, did not expect this method at all. They still kept digging one by one and digging in the soil with the other...

Dig this ditch around the shelter and fill it with water as a backup against wildfires.

Immediately, Xiang Wanying and others also started the final arrangements for burning the wasteland. It was not difficult to save the firewood for basic use in the next few days.

After cutting down all the dead trees, we can say that we have as much wood as we need.

Then they laid all the hay collected around them in the shelter "homestead" as ignition materials, and focused on taking care of the areas with dead tree trunks and bamboo trunks.

"Everyone is optimistic about their respective areas. If the fire spreads, they must be extinguished as soon as possible!"

Carrying four bamboo tubes filled with water on her back, Xiang Wanying warned the three girls beside her who were also carrying water.

"Of course, if a wildfire really spreads, the first thing we have to do is run down the mountain!"

"Ok!"

Anya nodded vigorously and checked again whether there was any leakage in the bamboo tube behind her.

"I see!"

Su Yan tied up the hem of her pink pajamas, ready to escape.

"Ok."

Lan Yueting answered. At the same time, because of her large breasts, she was not very balanced when running. She also imitated Su Yan and tied the hem of her white pajamas so that she could run away in case of an accident.

Xiang Wanying's purpose is to imagine the worst consequences before doing anything, so the burning that could have started after a nap was postponed to dusk.

All the supplies that have been moved to the mountainside, such as pork jerky, sheepskin bags, metal sheets and other things, have been packed with curtains and turned into four parts and placed on the bamboo forest path next to them.

The pile of firewood, which was easily ignited, was moved more than ten meters away, covered with a pile of large green leaves that had just been picked, and a lot of water was sprinkled on the surface.

At the same time, Xiang Wanying was also prepared to call a few other people to escape with their things if the situation turned bad.

As for how this wildfire will burn once it spreads, that's something she can't control...

However, with the half-meter-wide water channel as an insurance measure, Xiang Wanying actually wasn't too worried about accidents.

At this moment, everything was ready, all that was needed was to set the fire. After the four of them looked at each other, they all walked to the fire, picked up the torches that had been put up in advance, and lit it.

"I'll count to one, two, three, and then everyone starts lighting the fire!" Standing in the east, Xiang Wanying shouted: "One, two, three!"

After saying that, she put the torch in her hand on a pile of hay. Although the flames did not spread instantly, the speed was definitely not slow.

In just ten minutes, the flames burning from four directions had merged together.

And the smoke that was still scattered all turned into flames at this moment. The fire reached its peak for a while, and the heat wave even caused the air above to appear distorted.

However, after the fire maintained its peak for about a few minutes, it began to decline rapidly. As the outermost hay branches around it were burned, they turned into red charcoal or embers.

As the red color of the charcoal diminishes, a layer of white ash begins to adhere to the surface, and smoke gradually continues to emerge, spreading in all directions.

The embers also quickly turned black and emitted green smoke.

The choking smoke and heat that hit the face when the fire started made the four girls who originally planned to act as temporary firefighters retreat a few meters early.

Xiang Wanying, who was standing in the east, looked worriedly at the bamboo house in front of her. Although there was a half-meter-wide fire prevention tank in front of it, and water had been poured outside the bamboo house in advance, and it was not far from the nearest burning point. It's also nearly five meters.

But the current intensity of the fire caused by the burning of the wasteland really made Xiang Wanying somewhat unprepared. Holding a bamboo tube in her hand, she was ready to pour water on the bamboo house to extinguish the fire at any time.

At this moment, Xiang Wanying could be said to be extremely anxious. Originally, she thought that only the tree roots and bamboo roots located in the key burning areas would burn strongly.

Grass in other places will turn directly into ash after burning, and then cool down quickly...

If she had known it would be this intense, Xiang Wanying would have dug a one-meter-wide ditch in advance, but her worries soon dissipated.

Because after the hay on all sides was burned, the smoke gradually became smaller.

And Xiang Wanying could clearly feel that the heat rushing towards her face had become much smaller.

The tree roots and bamboo roots that have been cared for are still burning.

Just when she was thinking about how long it would take to get in, a shouting sound suddenly came from next to her.

"It's so hot..."

Anya swung her fingers and jumped wildly on the spot.

Just now, on a whim, she touched the water in the "fireproof pool" on the ground with her fingertips to test the temperature, and then she was burned like this.

Although there is no clear measurement method, Anya initially feels that the water is at least [-] or [-] degrees.

Otherwise, the moment your fingertips are immersed, you will not feel as cold as if you were immersed in cold water, followed by a burning sensation like a sting.

"Anya, what's wrong with you!"

Seeing Anya waving her hands and shouting that it was burnt, Xiang Wanying thought the other party was burned by the flames. She quickly ran over and opened the bamboo tube in her hand, and then rinsed the burned area with cold water.

And asked the other person why he was burned.

Chapter 394 Black Gun (monthly ticket reward plus Chapter 5)

Fortunately, Anya was bored.

But when it comes to using his own body for testing, he is very cautious.

Not only did he use his little finger as a test, but he only extended his fingertips.

And if something doesn't feel right, he immediately retracts.

So after being washed with cold water, she gradually stopped crying out in pain.

After rubbing her little finger that had returned to its original state a few times on her palm to confirm that there was no problem, Anya explained to Xiang Wanying who was beside her with a face full of concern: "I just wanted to test whether the water would become very hot..." "

Hearing her words, Xiang Wanying, Su Yan, and Lan Yueting, who had just breathed a sigh of relief because her injuries were okay, suddenly felt helpless.

This guy's heart is too big...

After confirming that there was nothing wrong with Anya’s burnt area.

Xiang Wanying also no longer had the bold idea of ​​walking to the bamboo house to check the temperature.

Obediently returning to the east, she continued to carefully observe the burning of the flames.

Because the weather is relatively hot, the hay and firewood laid out by everyone are completely dry.

Therefore, the smoky and burning situation did not last long. After the surrounding grass ash charcoal completely turned white, there was no more smoke coming out, leaving only the burning smell.

Time passed by, and soon the sky outside began to turn ink, and the flames in the open space gradually became smaller.

Although several of the areas that had been taken care of were still burning, they could only be considered small burns.

It is a situation where red charcoal and white ash coexist. According to the current situation of no wind, there is no need to worry about the possibility of forest fires.

Silently observing the scene inside the venue that could definitely be called a fire scene.

Su Yan said in a joking and relaxed tone: "In this situation, are we going to have to stay outside tonight?"

"I guess not." She shook her head slightly and said to Wanying: "Based on the current situation, we should be able to go to sleep in the bamboo house before it gets completely dark."

After saying that, she picked up the wooden stick beside her and began to fiddle with the ashes that had turned into white flakes on the edge.

This is the final step in the burning process, clearing the entire area.

After all, everyone set the fire so that they could live in peace later.

So cleaning the area is also one of the important steps.

The reason why we do not choose to completely extinguish the fire before cleaning is to increase safety.

After the ashes in the edge areas are swept away, there will still be some sparks underneath.

What Xiang Wanying has to do now is to get rid of all these sparks.

After seeing her actions, the other three girls followed suit and joined in the work of stirring up Mars.

After Su Yan worked for a while, she quickly came up with an efficient way to make a broom by tying a bunch of twigs together.

Ten seconds later, her broom started to smoke due to embers...

A few seconds later, Su Yan, who was holding a torch, thought of putting the broom into the "fire escape ditch" nearby to extinguish the fire, and then wet it with water to sweep the floor.

Immediately, other girls began to follow suit, and the cleaning efficiency of the entire shelter "homestead" began to increase dramatically.

....................................

It looked like it was getting dark outside.

Qin Ruoshuang, who was finishing simmering fresh rabbit broth in the cave, began to worry.

The first thing to worry about is why Xiang Lingying, who should be back in the evening, hasn't come back yet.

The second thing is worrying about how one person can eat three whole rabbits.

Probably because I haven't seen the noose for a long time, I have forgotten that it is dangerous. After Qin Ruoyan finished preliminarily tidying up the grassland yesterday and started setting the noose again.

Qin Ruoshuang harvested eight rabbits this morning.

They were all alive, and when she picked them up, they continued to eat the weeds around them with their three-petal mouths, as if they were planning to eat the rabbit's last bite of food.

Qin Ruoshuang had already overcome her psychological barriers long ago, so Qin Ruoshuang killed all eight of them very efficiently.

And she was quite skilled in the process of peeling off the skin, removing the flesh and cutting the internal organs.

Considering that she couldn't finish eating, Qin Ruoshuang set up a drying rack in the cave again.

She planned to dry five of them and eat three with Xiang Lingying.

As a result, Qin Ruoshuang didn't have any companions waiting for her to eat rabbit meat at night.

Three rabbits!

Can't finish it, can't finish it at all!

She picked up two skewers full of offal and started roasting them next to the fire.

Before baking, Qin Ruoshuang did not forget to pick out the pistol wrapped in melted foam from the fire with two branches.

She suddenly remembered this, and then found it from a pile of burning garbage. After finding that it could no longer be cleaned by hand, Qin Ruoshuang prepared to use fire to deal with it.

See if you can burn away the jet black foam burn marks on it.

But at this moment, looking at the still pitch black sky above, she also understood that she might have thought too much...

With a slight sigh, Qin Ruoshuang suddenly began to have various fearful emotions in her heart due to the loneliness of spending the night.

Although the sun was setting outside and the moon had just appeared, the lighting was at its worst.

It was almost pitch black, with nothing visible.

But when she occasionally looked up, she could "see" all kinds of scary monsters she knew in the darkness.

Taking a deep breath, Qin Ruoshuang tried to comfort herself in her heart.

Xiang Lingying probably set off late this morning, so when he returned he saw that the sky was going to be dark, so he simply planned to spend the night at the foot of the mountain...

But even if she tried hard to imagine the best situation in her mind, she would occasionally think of what Zhang Liu had said before:

It is impossible for rabbits to engage in family planning!

They will still maintain the situation of not eating up the grassland.

It means there must be predators constantly hunting them.

Or a large number of people will die at a fixed time.

We have not seen wolves in the grassland yet.

There are two possible scenarios.

One of them is that the wolf picked a time when we were not around to hunt rabbits. After all, for wolves, humans are large creatures and will not be messed with casually.

The other is the unique rainy season in the tropics. This grassland will be soaked in water, and then rabbits will die in large numbers, and their corpses will provide nutrients for the grassland.

And now, Qin Ruoshuang began to worry that Xiang Lingying would be unlucky enough to encounter a pack of wolves...

Taking a deep breath, she prepared to wait.

But if Xiang Lingying doesn't come back at noon tomorrow, then he will go against his sister's advice and go to the green pool alone to find someone!

Thinking of this, Qin Ruoshuang stuffed a mouthful of roasted rabbit offal into her mouth.
