Lord Survival: My Shelter in Crocodile Territory

Chapter 5 Drilling wood to make fire

I opened my backpack and took out the fish. It was a crucian carp, about 1 kilogram.

What a good sign.

No fish was found in that place just now. It seems that the distribution of fish is also uneven.

Since there are fish here, what are you waiting for? It's done. You can get clay and harvest food at the same time. It's really two birds with one stone.

[Fish +1]

【Loach+2】

【Eel+1】

Wang Shuo's fishing shouldn't be too simple. Just stand on the raft and keep using skills.

There is no more water in the backpack, so just dump it in the swamp.

The number of fish in the backpack gradually increased, and the joy of harvesting food gradually faded away.

He began to think about the possibility of digging a small ditch to separate his property from the swamp.

He put away the raft, stood on the edge of the swamp, and used "Hose Mud" again.

As the silt continued to decrease, more water filled up from the swamp. In another half an hour, a ditch 10 meters long and 1 meter wide appeared.

Now that it was feasible, he didn't waste time anymore.

Food, water, and wood have all been collected, but what is missing is fire.

At 2 p.m., he returned to the shack and packed his backpack.

[Wood × 34; fish × 14; loach × 26; eel × 6; clay × 420]

As for water, you can get it at any time, and there is only 100L in the backpack.

He took out the wooden stick, flattened it with a stone knife, found another one of suitable size, took it in his hand, and started his great business of drilling wood to make fire!

After 1 minute, there was not even a single Martian!

Five minutes later, the small pit in the wood was dark, but there were still no sparks.

Ten minutes later, the wooden pit became deeper, but there were still no sparks.

After 30 minutes, I said fuck it, is this a human job?

My hands are going to bleed.

"Is my drilling posture wrong?" Wang Shuo sat on the stone, lost in thought.

He carefully recalled the methods of making fire by those wild survival masters, and found that he could also use rope to make a simple tool.

He slapped his forehead and suddenly realized.

Soon, a wooden drill was ready, that is, using a rope and branches to make a bow, and then inserting a wooden stick into the rope as a drill bit, that's it.

After having the tools, at least my hands no longer hurt, and my waist is not so sore...

After 1 minute, the small pit in the wood started to get hot.

After 5 minutes, the small pits in the wood that were ground were somewhat hot.

After 10 minutes, the small pit in the ground wood was very hot.

After 30 minutes, I said fuck it, is this a human job?

"Wang Defa!"

"Others are others, I am me, and I can only be angry and angry!"

"If you can't start a fire, you just can't start a fire!"

Wang Shuo couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, and guessed: "Is this me, unable to survive the curse of dawn?"

In desperation, he could only find another way.

He took out the "Survivor's Manual".

Turning to the last page, I found that the "diary" still had not changed.

Somehow, seeing the contents of the prophecy come true one by one, he became even more frightened.

"No, I must solve the current dilemma as soon as possible and make myself stronger to deal with unknown crises."

Opening the [Chat Channel], he wanted to see if he could get fire from other players.

Zhang Guangwen: "Boss, do you have anything to eat? I can exchange it with water."

Li Li: "Please, please give me fire. I'm in the snow and my body is about to freeze. I also have water and cod fish that I can use in exchange."

The [Chat Channel] is filled with messages about various resource exchanges. Many people have received some resources, but more people, like Wang Shuo, have extremely unbalanced resources, either lacking this or that.

Soon, Wang Shuo discovered a piece of useful information.

ID:3610 Zhang Yang: "I have a box of matches here. If you want it, message me privately. The one with the highest price will get it."

"I want it, I want it!"

"I'll trade it with you for water."

People kept replying, and Wang Shuo was also anxious. He glanced at his backpack and it seemed that he could only exchange fish with him.

Wang Shuo found Zhang Yang's ID, clicked on it, and a private chat dialog box appeared.

"Hello, brother!"

After waiting for a while, Zhang Yang replied: "Sorry, the matches have been replaced."

Sorry, I'm moving too slowly!

After a while, another message caught Wang Shuo's attention.

ID: 8899 Tang Hua: "I have extra flints here. I'll exchange them for 10 pieces of wood. If you want them, hurry up."

Seeing this message, Wang Shuo couldn't help but cursed in his heart: "Profiteer."

Having learned his previous lesson, he quickly contacted the other party.

"Brother, can you take it a little less?"

"No, there are so many people in need of fire now!"

Wang Shuo thought for a moment and decided not to bargain with him.

Time is precious now. It's almost 4pm and there are still many things to do.

Open [Transaction].

Tang Hua was selected and 10 wood was directly placed in the transaction dialog box.

After Tang Hua also put in a pair of flints, the system prompt sounded:

【Are you sure about the transaction? 】

"Sure."

[Flint +1, Wood -10]

There is an extra pair of flints in the backpack.

Take out flint, dry grass, leaves, and some branches from the backpack.

These are all good materials for starting a fire. When two flints are hit hard, sparks fly.

After trying several times, the bonfire in the fire pit was lit.

The blazing bonfire gave Wang Shuo a little warmth in this strange world.

Wang Shuo looked at it with disdain and threw the simple fire-making tools he made directly into the fire pit.

While roasting the fire to dry his pants, he took out two fish, cleaned the internal organs, and skewered them with branches.

He also inserted branches on both sides of the fire pit to make a bracket and put the skewered fish on the fire.

After roasting the fish, he thought about it and took out clay again, wanting to make some pots and bowls.

The shape of the clay is rectangular. One unit of clay is about 40 cm long, 30 cm wide, and 20 cm high.

He guessed that if it was placed next to the fire to dry, it would burn into bricks.

So, he put the clay in his hand on the stone beside the fire, took out another piece of clay, and studied how to make a pottery pot.

5 minutes later, the system prompt sounded:

[Grilled fish +2]

(Poor quality grilled fish, each physical strength recovery +10.)

Due to the lack of seasoning, the taste is a bit fishy, ​​but at least it can fill the stomach.

Seeing that he could only recover 10 points of physical strength, he quickly took out 2 more fish and put them on the fire.

Although there was a lack of salt, the hungry Wang Shuo still felt that the grilled fish tasted great.

At this time, he noticed the pottery pot in front of him. Although he used clay to mold the shape of the pottery pot, the pottery pot was very fragile and could not be used to hold water at all. Did he not use the "synthesis formula"?

While eating the grilled fish, he opened the [synthesis formula] and did not find the "synthesis formula" for pottery, which was very embarrassing.

After eating the two fish, the feeling of hunger was swept away, and the physical strength was gradually restored. Moreover, the two fish on the fire were almost baked.

At this time, he began to think about how to upgrade the shack to a wooden house. The wood he had now was not enough, but he could trade wood with other items and players. After all, food was hard currency now.

After a while, the system prompted:

[Grilled fish +2]

Just as he was about to take the grilled fish off, another system prompt sounded:

[Earth brick +1]

[Since you have done your own research and successfully obtained an earth brick, you are hereby rewarded with the "earth brick synthesis formula." ]

[Earth brick = 1 clay + 1 stick, 10 earth bricks = 10 clay + 1 wood]

"You can also play like this!"

This act of creating a "synthesis formula" opened up Wang Shuo's mind!

I think the production of pottery can also follow this method.

He vaguely felt that he had found the right way to play this game.

Then, he put the pottery pot next to the fire and continued to eat grilled fish.

Another 10 minutes later, the system prompt arrived as expected.

[Pottery Pot +1]

[Since you have successfully obtained a pottery pot through your own research, you are hereby rewarded with the "Pottery Pot Synthesis Formula". ]

[5 pottery pots = 1 clay + 1 wood]

"The surprise came too fast, like a tornado..."

"Hahahaha..."

Wang Shuo laughed like a pig again.

"Eaters, eaters, eaters are the best..."

After eating, it is exciting to work, and his pants have been dried. Although they are covered with mud, they do not affect the warmth.

Good things keep happening one after another, and his mood suddenly improves.
