Chapter 2 Ignition
It was also an accident, the family was full of joy and anticipation, but the woman named Fen Ying was full of dissatisfaction and contempt.

The corner of Xia Weiwei's mouth twitched slightly when it met the eyes of the woman at the door, and then retracted when she clearly saw the woman shaking her eyebrows slightly.

Looking directly at the tall and strong middle-aged man who was still half-sitting by the bed, Xia adjusted her breathing slightly, and when she ensured that the powerlessness caused by excessive hunger would not affect her tone of voice, she said, "Daddy Aoki, I will slowly Eating long-stemmed grass, can you help me go to the dirt hill and pick up some dry branches?"

I don't know if the expression on Xia Weiwei's face is too serious, the tone is too sincere, making it hard to refuse, or the middle-aged man wanted to fulfill "her" possible last wish, after staring at her for a few seconds, He raised his hand and patted Xia Weiwei's head, motioning her to wait before standing up.

"Heishi, come and get the long-stemmed grass for Aqian"

In the middle-aged arrangement, the young boy at the end of the bed followed closely, and after Xia Weiwei deliberately interrupted, the woman who was more concerned about her physical condition returned to the bedside, and after tucking the animal skin covering her lower body, she spoke earnestly. .

"A Que, you have to trust your mother, don't listen to other people's words and think wildly..."

"I know Aunt Qingmei." Once again, Xia Weiwei interrupted the woman's words.

It's not that she is not polite, but that she doesn't want the woman at the door to have any chance to provoke the anger of the woman in front of her.

That woman, or that woman's family, is not worth their anger at all.

"Grandma Qingmei, can you help me pick some taro leaves? I need more. I also want reed flowers and hay. The hay should be soft grass."

Not giving women a chance at all, when the young man came in holding forty or fifty meter long grass stalks that were as thick as an adult's thumb, like sugar cane, Xia Weiwei made a series of requests.

"What do you want so many taro leaves for? Didn't I change your grass bed for you two days ago?" Subconsciously, the woman asked.

With the corners of her mouth bent, Xia smiled mysteriously: "I don't want to change the bed, but I have other uses. Aunt Qingmei just collect some for me."

Her lips moved, and the woman wanted to ask a question, but after all, she choked on the question after opening her mouth.

Xia Weiwei didn't know at all that the voice she tried to calm still made the family of three who were very familiar with "her" notice the difference, and she thought she was flawless, but in fact there were contradictions everywhere, which caused the whole family to feel uneasy. Tacitly regarded her various performances as flashbacks.

So, after the middle-aged man brought back a bunch of dead branches from the boss, the family worked very cooperatively to cut the sticks and bases she wanted. When she found that she didn't have the strength or endurance to ignite the flames, they also asked them to help. He followed her arrangement without hesitation.

After repeated failures, Xia Weiwei directly moved the base wooden stick to the side of the pile of firewood erected, and after a frantic operation, the raging fire illuminated the whole body.

The reeds and velvet grass burned very fast, and the flame was once as high as two meters. During their rapid combustion, dry branches of different thicknesses were ignited, and the temperature rushed directly.

When the face, shoulders, and even the knees that are closer to the fire in the kneeling posture feel the scorching heat brought by the fire.

Xia Weiwei finally believed in the fact that the fire had been lit.

···Will it be too easy?

···Before and after... From picking up firewood to lighting up the fire, there should not be two hours before and after!

···In survival programs, ignition is always a big project... Could she be too lucky? ? ?

After being surprised, Xia Weiwei hastily stuffed the fish wrapped in taro into the hollow of the fire. In order to save firewood and prevent the fish tightly wrapped in taro leaves from being cooked, she stood up and ran to throw the long-stemmed grass Where there was dregs, I picked up a big bag of long-stemmed grass dregs and came back.

Along the edge of the fire, Xia Weiwei attached these extremely dry slag skins. After seeing that some of the slag skins that had fallen into the center of the fire were catching fire, she ran a few times in succession and used the thick slag skins to cover the flames. Heap surrounded.

Seeing her series of actions, Aoki, who felt that his face and knees were so hot that he couldn't stand it, shouted: "Ah Que?!"

Hearing the sound and turning her head, Xia Weiwei caught the surprise and bewilderment flowing in Mu Qing's eyes.

"Daddy Aoki, this is fire. My daddy told me. The fire is as hot as what my daddy told me!" Regarding fire, she didn't want to explain too much. People here definitely can't understand the transformation of energy Question, and why she would think of fire today, all kinds of complaints against "her" by the people of the tribe during this period, the blame is enough to become a reason.

Taking two steps back, and making the three members of Aoki's family back up a bit, Xia Weiwei resumed her kneeling posture.

Stretching out her hand, looking directly at the palms and backs of her hands that were baking alternately back and forth, she slowly opened her lips: "My father said, if one day, I feel that the cold is unbearable, if one day, we don't have enough fish, then he Just light me a fire, with fire, the winter will no longer be cold and hard, and the night will no longer be scary, but with fire, the two teams of Uncle Aoki and Uncle Xunmu can go fishing at the same time , when the severe winter comes, we will not have to worry about food."

"Daddy Aoki, my daddy also told me that whenever I have the opportunity, I will grill meat and fish, and when I have the opportunity, I will cook a lot of delicious food with fire..."

Since Aoki can be the leader of the tribe, his mind must be beyond doubt.

These few words, she believed were enough to wake him up.

Compared with the "reminiscence" of everything, it is better to say that half of it is kept and half is better. Compared with shouting loudly and warming up, the light and sweetness that radiate silently will be more ideal.

Xia Weiwei is well aware of the 'ignorance' of the people here about fire and the urgency of fishing and storage, so she doesn't worry about anyone who will object to the use of fire. After saying that, she concentrates on staring at the taro leaf parcels in the fire, flipping them from time to time. Once in a while, pull some long-stem grass residues to cover it from time to time.

"Suck~ It's so sweet." A child's voice suddenly sounded.

"It smells like long grass!" a woman exclaimed.

Immediately, another woman not far from her responded: "It's not like, it is."

"What's the matter, how can there be such a sweet taste?" The woman who was sure it wasn't her nose problem frowned.

"You've got the point wrong. What we should pay attention to here is not the issue of sweetness." A man stood up and said as he walked towards the fire.

"what?"

"Uh?"

It's not a sweetness issue, so what's the issue?
The two women are inexplicable.

As if the start button had been pressed, the figures in front of the tent surrounded the central hundred-square-meter open space in a circle and moved together. Accompanied by these approaching figures, were almost the same exclamations from the men.

"It's so bright!"

"Just like starlight."

"So hot!"

"Hotter than the midday sun in early autumn!"

"Hiss~ it's burning me."

"Ah~ I can't bear it."

"If you can't bear it, let me have a little, I'm drying my hair, and my hair is not dry yet."
