Chapter 707: The Great Fire
In this way, I sat next to them and laughed at their busy work, and then touched it myself, and there was a slight pain in my arm, and smiled, but fortunately my hand was injured, and his hand was very relaxed.
The last few people used tree branches to stand and barely slept for the night.
After a night's sleep, I woke up the next day feeling sore, and I didn't think it was the way to go.
So, when I got up early in the morning, I woke them all up, and I didn't know why I burst out laughing when I looked at them rubbing their eyes one by one.
"What are you laughing at?" When my wife saw me smiling at them, she looked at me inexplicably, but her hands kept moving, rubbed her eyes for a while, and then tidied up her clothes and hair.
Lan Fei'er just sat up on the side, looking ahead and not knowing what she was thinking.
"No, we're all awake, now let's go find branches to build some rooms, it's not a problem to fall asleep like this." I walked up to my wife and sat down next to her.
"Okay, I slept yesterday and now I feel uncomfortable." When my wife said this, she twisted her body a few times, as if to relieve the discomfort.
"Eh, you can go with us." After twisting her waist for a while, her wife turned her head and pushed Lan Fei'er with her elbow, who looked confused.
"Ah...... What the? Lan Fei'er was pushed like this, turned around violently, and looked at my wife with wide eyes.
"What's wrong with you, you're so decadent when you wake up early in the morning?" I looked at Lan Fei'er in this state, it was a little abnormal, she was not usually like this.
"Nothing, what did you just say?" Lan Fei'er pulled her lips and smiled, and then asked us.
"We wanted to pick up branches to build a house, and it was uncomfortable to sleep in a broken tent all night." The wife heard Lan Fei'er's question, and then replied.
Lan Fei'er nodded, and the three of us were busy in the forest.
Soon, with the concerted efforts of the three of us, all the branches of the trees on which we had built the house were moved to the place where we had slept last night, and which we had painstakingly pulled down from those old trees.
The three of us looked at the pile of branches in front of us, and then we tinkered, and before noon three small rooms were placed in front of us.
I clapped my palms and said, "That's it!" ”
"I'm so tired." My wife's weak voice came, and I looked over to see that she was sitting in a clearing, looking very depressed.
Lan Fei'er also looked very tired, and said, "I can't do it anymore, I didn't expect it to be so troublesome to make a house." ”
I felt a burst of sweat on my forehead, are you so tired? I'm feeling good, I can still kill a few wild boars.
I looked at the sky, the sun had reached the treetops, and I felt a little hungry in my stomach, so I lowered my head again and looked at the two of them.
"Are you hungry?" I watched them rest for a while, looked much better, and spoke.
"Hungry, do you have anything to eat?" Lan Fei'er got up from the ground and walked over to me.
I shook my head at her, then pointed in one direction and said to Lan Fei'er, "There's a small river over there, and there should be a lot of fish in it." ”
Lan Fei'er nodded, then turned around to pull my wife, and the three of us headed towards the small river.
When I got to the river, I used a long branch, stripped the leaves and forks from it, leaving only one main trunk, and then made the trunk very sharp.
I looked at the fish in the river, and then I slammed the trunk of the tree in my hand and lifted it up, and there was a live fish still swinging on it.
I did it again and again, and soon we had someone carrying two fish.
After we finished eating the fish, nothing happened, everything was fine, and even the organization superiors did not give us any tasks, so we were all relieved.
Soon it was dark again, and after the three of us had talked for a while, we went to sleep in our respective rooms.
At night, I suddenly woke up, smelling burning in my nose, I hurriedly walked out of the hut, and I saw my wife and Lan Fei'er also coming out of their house.
The three of us looked at the burning forest in front of us and were surprised, the key is that the fire has spread to us, the three of us glanced at each other, and from each other's eyes, we all saw that we were at a loss.
The only river that can quench this fire is some distance from here, and it will take a long time, which means that the water far away cannot quench the thirst of the near, so we can only think of another way.
"Ahh With dust! Soil can also extinguish fires. At this anxious time, Lan Fei'er's eyes lit up, and she looked at us and said in a very excited tone.
As if we had been instructed, we said to them, "Come with me, and we will cut down the branches that are not burning and use them to shovel the soil." ”
So all three of us hurried to see which trees had not been burned by the fire, and soon we found three saplings that were a little small, but they had no problem making planks at all.
So I took out the dagger in my arms and slashed it hard at the trunk of the tree, and in a burst of felling, and all three saplings fell at our feet.
I quickly picked it up, sharpened it with a dagger, and soon we had a small plank in our hands.
We used the small planks in our hands, shoveled the earth, and threw it into the fire, and after doing so for about an hour, we watched the fire get a little smaller.
At this time, I was already sweating profusely, my back was already wet with sweat, and my clothes were clinging to it, and I turned my head to look at the two people who were still struggling to shovel the soil to fight the fire, their hair had become strands and were wet with sweat, but they still did not stop.
I watched them like this, and I couldn't stop, so I started again, and the whole time, we didn't get the plank very close to the fire, because the fire would have burned it.
Fortunately, the fire around us was not particularly large, and after the three of us waved it for a while, we could only see a little spark on the ground around us.
"It's so hot here?" Lan Fei'er dropped the plank, and after taking a few breaths, she looked at us and asked.
"I don't know, I woke up to find a burning smell." I shook my head, then looked at her.
"Are we out of the fire now?" After Lan Fei'er let out a sigh, she frowned and asked without answering.
"Not yet, I think we're going to cut down all the trees around us now and make a quarantine to bring them out." My wife kept staring at the place where the fire was spreading, and suddenly came out.
"Huh? Why? Lan Fei'er asked with a puzzled expression.
"You see, although there is no fire on our side, there is still a red light on the other side, and there is no guarantee that there will be a fire that will spread later." My wife pointed to the place where the fire was spreading and turned to us.
So we didn't even rest, we picked up the machete again, cut down the trees around us, and soon we made a barrier.
