1020. Fire (4/5)
Four cars formed a convoy and left Durban and marched northwest along the highway.
About a day after driving, there was no road left, so they had to continue to head northwest.
The car drove for another half a day, and Li Du and his group were stunned: a large area of almost primitive rainforest appeared in front of them. Not to mention the road, there was no dirt road, so it was almost impossible for their car to drive in!
Li Du said helplessly: "Banana insect, your tribe is so far away? How did you go to the Golden Silk Grass Tribe?"
The banana worm said, "Someone stays and walks all the way."
"How far is it from your tribe?"
The banana worm shook his head: "I've been beating this road, yes, I have to chop it up."
Big Ivan chewed the gum and asked, "Boss, do you really want to go in? What should I do with the car?"
Li Du looked back and saw that the surrounding area was deserted and the cars could not be stored. If they were to be kept here, then the South African public security system would probably not be able to keep the car even tires when they came back.
However, they can't walk, unless they don't look for the possible diamond mine.
He hesitated for a while and said resolutely: "Go in and try it. If we can't find the pygmy tribe within one day, then we will come back!"
"Leave someone to guard?" Ivan continued to ask.
Li Du shook his head and said, "Forget it, drive the car into the woods and hide it, so that no one will be left behind. If someone wants to steal the car, let them steal it. At most, some money will be lost. If someone leaves conflict and casualties will be lost."
They drove the car in, and Brother Wolf and Ivan took Godzilla to hide the four cars.
Brother Wolf cut down some small trees and vines, and there was a large net on the car. He combined the net and vines and made a concealed device similar to a Geely suit. After covering it, he could not find the existence of the car unless he looked close from the front.
After packing up, each of them carried a big backpack and a big bag, which was filled with daily necessities, providing them with their daily life needs for survival every day and night.
The forests are lush. After entering from the edge, giant trees more than ten meters or even twenty or thirty meters appeared beside them. This place is completely isolated from the outside world, like a primitive society.
Birds kept flying over their heads, and from time to time they would alarm some small beasts. Brother Wolf led Ah Miao and Da Yiwan led Ah Ah to break the back.
There are snakes and some dangerous mosquitoes in the woods. They must spray the repellent again between half an hour or an hour.
The rude official was careless. Once he did not spray medicine in time and was bitten by a mosquito. A meat bun was bulging on his arm that was almost the same as a soup bun.
At first, it was fine, but he was so itchy that he was too itchy afterwards. Brother Wolf did not allow him to scratch his skin, but disinfected the saber, and drew a small cross on the bag, squeezed out some yellow liquid that looked like serum.
"Italy mosquitoes, be careful, repel mosquitoes from each other and don't let them bite them. It is toxic." Brother Wolf said solemnly after dealing with the wound of the rubbing officer.
It is difficult to move in the primitive jungle. Brother Wolf keeps waving his long hijab, cutting through shrubs and vines, driving away mosquitoes and poisonous snakes, and trying to create a better marching environment for those behind him.
At noon, Brother Wolf signaled to rest. They found a clear space in the woods. It was dry and there was a clear river passing by next to it. It was a good campsite.
Li Du and Sophie couldn't wait to sit down, and then the sound of comfortable exhalation sounded one after another.
Big Ivan walked over with a piece of grass in his arms and smiled, "Are you tired? This road is actually good, it's quite difficult to walk, but at least there is a perfect campground."
The lord lost half of his life and said panting: "Oh, God, bless the road ahead to be more perfect."
The banana worm did not rest. After entering the rain forest, he changed his mood and was no longer as frightened, timid, and became confident and relaxed as before.
He was short and thin, like a monkey, walking through the woods, looking effortless.
The others rested, but he didn't rest and said, "I'll go chop and chop, I'm familiar with the electricity, it smells so good."
Li Du nodded, handed him a short knife, and said, "Be careful."
The banana worm did not take his short knife, but looked at the black Mamba crossbow in his hand.
Li Du handed him the crossbow, and he happily held it in his hand, leaving lightly with some short arrows on his back.
Brother Wolf was preparing to cook, but he flipped over his backpack and suddenly fell silent.
"What's wrong?" Li Du saw that his expression was wrong.
Brother Wolf said: "I made a big mistake."
Li Du was a little nervous, and he quickly stood up and said, "What's wrong?"
"Not getting the fire!"
Li Du sighed and said, "What am I doing? Isn't it just a fire? Who took it?"
The group of people looked at each other, but they didn't even carry the spark.
Iwan said helplessly: "Boss Wolf, have you been comfortable for too long? You didn't even bring a ignition stick?"
Brother Wolf's face looked even more ugly, and Li Du comforted him and said, "It's okay, at worst we won't move forward. Besides, we brought speed food, so it doesn't matter if there is no fire."
"I have a way to ignite the fire, but I just think this kind of mistake shouldn't be." Brother Wolf's expression was still not good-looking, which was a very low-level mistake for him.
Li Du never thought about the issue of fire. His black hole space has diamonds, money, jewelry, food, fresh water and medicine, but there is no fire...
Brother Wolf looked up at the sky. He went to collect some dry bark and weeds, and then crushed the collected bark with daggers and stones.
Li Du said: "You want to drill wood to make fire?"
Brother Wolf shook his head and said, "No, it's an easier way."
He crushed the dried bark into powder, took out a clean sealed bag, and filled some clean water.
When he came back with the bag, he found an angle, rolled the bag into a flat sphere as much as possible, and placed it above the bark powder.
Seeing this, Sophie laughed and said, "Is this a convex mirror? A good idea."
"What should I do tonight? Moonlight is not good, right?" asked the rumbler.
Brother Wolf said: "The evening is easier."
Not long after, a little bit of white smoke appeared on the bark powder. As the white smoke increased, suddenly, a small flame appeared.
Seeing this, Brother Wolf immediately put the hay in and lit the fire.
Later, they cooked rice with fire and brought enough food, so they did not look for wild game. Brother Wolf was worried that the blood of wild game would cause unnecessary trouble.
However, Ivan caught some small fish by the river, all of which were edible freshwater fish. Li Du brought seasonings to cook a pot of soup.
These wild fish are delicious, and the stewed fish soup is full of umami. The dry cakes they bring are dipped in hot fish soup, which is even better than canned meat.
