Liu Sisi smiled, but deep down, she still didn't believe it...

After all, this stove doesn't look like something that can heat up to 1400 degrees Celsius...

"It doesn't matter, they didn't intend to bet with you in the first place."

Regardless of whether the furnace succeeds or not, you'll always be my survival master.

"Oh…"

Ye Feng's lips curled into a smirk...

"Don't worry, I will make you admit defeat."

Da Xiong, go find me some leaves and branches.

"Little stutterer, go inside and fetch me some wood."

"good!"

The two responded and returned shortly afterward with the items...

"Brother Feng, let me help you..."

Liu Sisi knew he was about to start making charcoal, so she quickly moved the chopped pine wood pieces in front of him...

She methodically placed the wood blocks into the stove, forming a "well" shape, and slowly stacked them upwards...

Ye Feng nodded in satisfaction. Although this woman wasn't good at practical skills, she must have learned a lot of theoretical knowledge.

This arrangement is the professional method for charcoal making...

Only in this way can the moisture in each piece of wood be dried to the maximum extent, forming carbonization...

The amount of charcoal produced will also increase significantly as a result…

After arranging the branches, Ye Feng placed a large pile of leaves and branches across the stove opening above.

Then use some logs to compact it, so that both ventilation and sealing can be achieved to a good state.

After he finished, he lit a large fire at the burner under the stove…

Next, the fire will both smoke and dry the wet mud inside the furnace walls.

The smelting furnace and the charcoal will be produced at the same time.

As for how much charcoal will be produced, that depends entirely on the fire's intensity and fate...

"Coo coo..."

Just as he finished, Ye Feng heard a growl from his stomach…

Looking back, he saw Fu Changxiong and Qi Xiaojie giving him embarrassed smiles…

He looked up at the blinding sunlight and realized that he had been so focused on his work that it was probably already noon...

"Everyone's worked hard, let's go cook..."

Hearing that they could finally eat, all three of them beamed with joy; they had actually been starving for a long time…

After washing his hands, Ye Feng began cooking…

He enjoys the process, especially making his favorite fried eggs.

I just don't know how bird eggs taste different from chicken eggs.

Filled with curiosity, he first heated the pot until it was dry, and then, after white smoke appeared, he used a spatula to scoop a piece of lard into it…

(It's called a spatula, but it's actually just a rectangular piece of wood.)

The lard immediately released its unique aroma, and once the oil was hot…

Under the expectant gazes of everyone, Ye Feng took out a bird egg, skillfully tapped it on the side of the pot, and dropped it into the pot…

"Sizzle..."

A familiar, eggy aroma slowly filled the entire treehouse…

"Wow…"

All three of them exclaimed in unison, their voices filled with greedy surprise…

Who would have thought that this unremarkable fried egg in the city could excite three modern people so much...

Because this is the taste of civilization, a taste that doesn't exist in the entire Amazon rainforest.

At this moment, the scene inside the house was warm and cozy, and everyone was pursing their lips and swallowing their saliva.

Staring intently at the pot…

Ye Feng's throat bobbed as he kept stirring the eggs, afraid of burning them. He had been craving this for so long…

A moment later, he cracked a second egg, and after the yolk and white were fully cooked, he scrambled them together...

He originally wanted to eat poached eggs, but there were too many people, and everyone wanted to eat them…

Let everyone have a taste...

Before long, the fried eggs were ready... and at the same time, Qi Xiaoyan, who was still unconscious, perhaps smelled the aroma...

After coughing twice, he opened his eyes...

Qi Xiaojie's face lit up with joy, and he quickly helped her up...

"Sis...you...you're awake!?"

Qi Xiaoyan's lips were deathly pale, but her eyes lit up when she saw Qi Xiaojie...

She touched Qi Xiaojie's cheek in disbelief, tears welling up in her eyes involuntarily...

"Xiaojie, is it really you?! Am I dreaming?"

Qi Xiaojie nodded vigorously, equally excited…

"No...it wasn't...a dream, it was...Feng...Brother Feng who...saved you..."

Liu Sisi quickly came to her side...

"Sister Xiaoyan, it was Brother Feng who treated your wound. He's so amazing, he knows everything and can do anything."

He even promised to take us in…”

Liu Sisi gestured as she recounted Ye Feng's story, and after listening for a while...

Qi Xiaoyan's face was filled with gratitude; her only family member was this younger brother…

I thought my younger brother was probably dead here, but I never expected to meet Ye Feng, my benefactor.

Now, both siblings' lives were saved by Ye Feng, and for a moment, she didn't know how to express her gratitude to him...

"Feng... Brother Feng, thank you..."

After saying that... she prepared to get up and kneel down...

Ye Feng immediately saw through her thoughts and quickly reached out to stop her:

"Hey! Don't kneel, your brother already knelt. I don't really like this way of expressing gratitude either."

I know you are a capable woman, otherwise you wouldn't have been able to raise three people to this day.

If you want to thank me, then do your job well from now on, and let's get through this together and win the big prize.

Qi Xiaoyan was a woman who wasn't very good at expressing herself, so when she heard this, she just hummed in response.

But her gratitude towards Ye Feng was no less than that towards Qi Xiaojie…

At the same time, she also highly recognized Ye Feng's survival skills. Being able to build a treehouse and live that kind of life in the wild meant his abilities were definitely no less than hers...

After exchanging pleasantries, the soup was almost ready...

Finally, they simply ate some bone broth with scrambled eggs, and everyone was very considerate.

Without Ye Feng picking up an egg to eat, no one touched their chopsticks first…

Seeing this, Ye Feng had no choice but to pick up a piece and put it in his mouth...

But after chewing for only a few bites, his eyebrows furrowed.

The taste was completely different from what he had imagined. Perhaps because it was a fertilized egg, it had a fishy and foul odor, and even a slightly bitter taste…

Compared to scrambled eggs, it's nowhere near as good...

"Brother Feng, is it delicious?"

Liu Sisi asked curiously…

Ye Feng shook his head, then picked up another piece and put it into the wooden bowl…

"I don't think I'll eat much, you guys can share the rest..."

"Thank you, Brother Feng!"

After saying that, everyone excitedly began to share the bird eggs…

But apart from Fu Changxiong, everyone else showed the same expression as Ye Feng.

"What's this smell?"

"It's...like...broken...broken..."

Qi Xiaoyan took a small sip, smelled it, and said:

"Fertilized eggs are like this, especially those from birds of prey like harpy eagles; they don't taste very good..."

But it's very nutritious. Just consider it an energy boost... after all, Brother Feng risked his life to get it..."
