Chapter 93: Drilling Wood to Make Fire



Gu Mingchen and Wen Jingzhi looked at each other. Uh, it seemed that they had both forgotten about this question.

However, they were still a little surprised that Xiao Yishu was very careful and serious about surviving.

"So are you planning to make fire by rubbing two sticks together?" An Yongjie came over curiously.

"Let's give it a try, I wonder if it will work!" Xiao Yishu sharpened one end of the wooden stick, then picked up the wooden board and carved a groove in the middle of it.

"Then I'll go get some water and wash these things!" Luffy said, picked up two buckets, and walked towards the beach.

"Let me go with you!" An Yongjie glanced at Xiao Yishu, then looked at Luffy, hesitated for a while, picked up the bucket and followed Luffy.

"Then let's build a stove. Xiaolin, pick up some dry branches and use them to start the fire!"

Gu Mingchen said as he pulled Wen Jingzhi up, sorted out the stones that Lin Lin had picked up earlier, and started to build the stove.

Xiao Yishu had already started rubbing the wooden stick back and forth vigorously on the board. After a long time, there was no movement. He became a little anxious. He was already hot, and with the effort, his whole body was drenched in sweat!

He was so tired that he was gasping for breath. Just then he saw An Yongjie coming back, so he called him over to take over.

"Brother Yongjie, I have no strength left, you try!"

"Okay!" An Yongjie was of course willing. He had wanted to try it just now.

But after ten minutes there was still no movement, and the two became a little anxious.

Director Lu in front of the monitor smiled. Seeing them get humiliated, he felt relieved and started eating instant noodles again.

"How about I try it?" Luffy said standing aside.

Now everything is ready, except for the east wind. Everything is ready except for the fire.

"Okay, God, I'm so tired, my arms can't move!" An Yongjie screamed exaggeratedly.

"If there is no fire, we will have to eat it raw today!" Xiao Yishu gave him a displeased look.

Luffy also tried for a few minutes but still failed. Unconvinced, Xiao Yishu cut another wooden stick and continued rubbing, but this time he squatted directly in the sun.

"Hey, got it, got it, hurry up and bring the grass over!"

After rubbing for about five minutes, Xiao Yishu saw a little smoke coming out. He knew it was done, so he rubbed even harder.

An Yongjie and Luffy came over with hay and saw a small puff of smoke rising.

Xiao Yishu carefully picked up the sparks and placed them on the hay. After a while, it caught fire and he quickly placed it under the stove.

Gu Mingchen was making coconut bowls and chopsticks. While Xiao Yishu and the others were rubbing sticks together to make fire, he processed the coconuts, made a coconut bowl for each of them, carved a pair of chopsticks, and dug out the coconut meat.

I didn't expect it to actually catch fire, so I quickly added some hay and then some branches. I had thought if it still didn't work, I'd go ask Director Lu to borrow a lighter.

After a while, the pot began to boil and there was a smell of seafood. They put some snails, crabs and octopuses into the pot to cook, and roasted the small fish directly on the stones.

The big colorful fish, the peeling fish, and a few octopuses were all kept in a bucket with sea water in a cool place. They were afraid that they would not be able to get food in the afternoon.

"Oh, I finally have a meal!" An Yongjie was holding a coconut bowl and eating a conch.

Six people gathered around the pot, holding coconut bowls, and began to feast.

"Although it doesn't have much taste, we caught it with our own hands, so it tastes delicious!" said Lin Lin.

"Teacher Wen, come here, you eat this big crab, and there's another big one for Teacher Gu!"

Xiao Yishu picked up the largest crab in the pot and put it in Wen Jingzhi's coconut bowl.

"No need. Your teacher Wen and I can share one. You can eat it by yourself. Are you starving today?"

As Gu Mingchen spoke, he took the big crab from Wen Jingzhi's bowl.

First, he broke off the two big claws and put them into Wen Jingzhi's bowl, and the remaining calf went into his own bowl.

He lifted the crab's shell and carefully removed its gills before putting it in his bowl. He then picked up his chopsticks and started eating the yellow on the shell.

He did it very naturally and skillfully, as if he had done it thousands of times. Only Xiao Yishu knew about their relationship, but no one else thought much about it. Actor Gu was very caring towards everyone.

Xiao Yishu also secretly stuffed two big crab claws into the hand of the paparazzi, Uncle Wang, which made the other paparazzi very envious.

After the meal, they were full and satisfied, but unfortunately, there were only a few coconuts left.

They rested in the afternoon, and when the sun was not so hot, they carried the raft and prepared to go out to sea to fish. They had already targeted the place and happened to meet the boat that came to pick up actress Lou.

There was no choice but to change direction. The place where the oars passed by seemed not so easy to fish.

"Teacher Lou!" "Teacher Lou!" "Teacher Lou!" "Teacher Lou!" Several young people greeted him proactively.

"Are you planning to go fishing at sea?" Movie Queen Lou saw them as soon as she got off the boat.

"Well, otherwise there will be no food. Director Lu is not going to be a human being this time. He has nothing but a knife, a pot and a rope. Who will be harmed in the cave at night?" Gu Mingchen walked up to her and complained.

"This Director Lu is really getting more and more difficult to deal with!" I, Movie Queen Lou, have been busy and didn't even know what happened today.

"Sister Lou, long time no see!" Wen Jingzhi greeted her.

"It's rare that you're here. What do you think of our show? Is it interesting?"

Cinema Queen Lou knew about his relationship with Gu Mingchen. Although she didn't say it explicitly, her words contained a hint of sarcasm.

"Very interesting!" Wen Jingzhi smiled gently and nodded.

"As long as you like it, wait a moment, I'll put the things down and join you guys!"

"Okay, it's a good opportunity for you to experience the charm of this Stone Island!" Gu Mingchen said with a smile.

"Who among you is going to go fishing on the raft?" Gu Mingchen asked them.

"Teacher Gu, let's take turns and see if we can catch any fish first. Let's all try it out, in groups of two!" Xiao Yishu suggested, because the raft can only accommodate two people.

"Or, Teacher Gu, why don't you take Teacher Wen fishing first!" Xiao Yishu said. He wanted to create some time for the two of them to be alone. Along the way, Teacher Wen had been monopolized by him.

"Brother Yongjie, come join me in the water later! I just got two pairs of diving goggles polished from the director!"

Xiao Yishu had indeed just gone to the director, and only after much persuasion and threats did he get two pairs of diving goggles.
