Chapter 460: Chapter 457 Occupy a Slot
I’ve reserved a spot. The second chapter isn’t ready yet.
I’ll make the changes before one o’clock in the morning.
When the yellow withered leaves, green needle grass, and black soil were brushed aside, the exposure of the red soil to the air brought joy.
Red clay!
Bi Fang scooped up a handful of red clay, his face filled with delight, “The Blood-Sealing Throat Tree often grows in tropical monsoon forest regions, rooting in acidic bedrock such as granite, shale, sandstone, or on red soil. Just now, I saw there were no large rocks here, so I guessed there might be red clay underneath!”
Leonardo seemed stunned, murmuring, “There really is.”
The moment the red clay was exposed before his eyes, Leonardo didn’t feel joy, but an indescribable sense of relief.
Yes, relief.
If the deep, mysterious environment of the rainforest initially instilled a sense of fear, the sheer repetition of trees could make one feel frantic and headless.
But watching Bi Fang, who recognized everything, knew everything, without worry, without sadness, taking step by step toward a pre-determined plan, making use of all available resources.
From landing in the rainforest, to descending from the trees, to methodically
“If you apply that kind of soil directly onto your body, it’s fine if you don’t have small wounds, but if you do, it could be serious. In the jungle, there are sharp branches everywhere, and you may not even notice many tiny cuts.”
“The locals in Africa wouldn’t do it this way either; they would dry it out, then mix it with animal fat to increase its viscosity so that when applied to the skin it doesn’t flake and fall off due to drying and cracking.”
Leonardo looked up at the rainforest where not a bit of sunlight came through, scratching his head, “So what are we going to do? We don’t have animal fat, nor do we have sunlight to dry it.”
“No worries, if we don’t have fat, we can add more water, and if there’s no sunlight, we can directly bake the soil to sterilize it, it’s the same,” he said.
Carrying the large funnel on his back, Bi Fang took a breath, “Now, we’re going to make fire. Today, I’ll teach everyone a third method of starting a fire by hand, apart from Fire-Making by Wood-Drilling and pump fire-starting.”
“Fire Saw Method!”
