Chapter 530 Sleeping pills in the middle of the night
As the sun set and night fell, all the hustle and bustle was suddenly wiped out by darkness, and everyone inside and outside the tribe became quiet.
This is one of the great benefits of primitive times.
Without the ubiquitous lighting facilities that illuminate the night as if it were day, people in this era were destined to be unable to work day and night and lifelessly like those in later generations.
As long as you lie down on the kang and sleep honestly, without playing too many primitive tunes, you can still get enough sleep.
However, among these people, Han Cheng is not included.
In the darkness, he kept his eyes open and kept thinking about how to solve the Kongming Lantern matter.
Stones, pottery, bones, leather, trees... He considered these things many times one by one, but was helpless to find that none of them could replace the metal wire.
This discovery made his head become messy and his mood became a little impatient.
After this state lasted for who knows how long, Han Cheng became even more impatient.
Because he had decided not to pay attention to these things for the time being, he went to sleep well but found that his mind was still in a mess and he couldn't fall asleep no matter what.
Insomnia has always been an extremely uncomfortable thing.
After tossing and turning on the bed for a long time, Han Cheng, who still couldn't sleep and felt uncomfortable all over, decided to give up the resistance.
If you want to sleep peacefully at this time, it is obviously impossible to rely on yourself alone. You must take a dose of sleeping pills.
Otherwise, this night and tomorrow will be ruined.
After making this decision, Han Cheng groped his way off the kang.
Relying on the faint red light reflected from the pit's fire pit, Han Cheng picked up a grass stem that was easily ignited, opened the almost sealed kang mouth, and inserted the long grass stem into it.
In a dark fire place.
After waiting for a while, as the smoke began to rise, a flame rose.
Han Cheng pulled out the burning grass stalks and lit the oil lamp placed on the earthen platform.
The room suddenly became much brighter.
Han Cheng put out the burning grass stalks and quickly sealed the kang's burner, leaving only a small gap.
In just a short time, the fire in the kang became much bigger.
It's not good to go on like this. It won't take long before the kang will be too hot to sleep on.
After doing this, Han Cheng, who was feeling a little cold from the cold, quickly got on the kang and got into the warm bed.
The previous preparations have been made, and now he will start taking sleeping pills.
After covering her hands to warm them, she reached out and touched Bai Xuemei, who was sleeping beside her, and shook her gently.
In her sleep, Bai Xuemei let out a few quiet murmurs and then opened her sleepy eyes.
Han Cheng smiled and moved closer to Bai Xuemei.
Bai Xuemei, who was already familiar with these things, didn't even say a word. After raising her body with two arms, she lay down again and began to feed Han Cheng sleeping pills.
It's not sloppy at all, it has the refreshing style of primitive people.
This kind of sleeping pill is undoubtedly very comfortable to take. This can be seen by looking at Han Chengcheng who looked at Bai Xuemei with a mean smile on his face.
The sleeping pills took a bit long to take.
It wasn't until Bai Xuemei's cheeks became numb and stiff that it was over.
It was said that Han Cheng took sleeping pills, but in the end it was Bai Xuemei who ate something.
Even so, the effect is surprisingly good.
As soon as the medication process was over, Han Chengcheng felt sleepy.
Reaching out and pinching Bai Xuemei's face gently, Han Cheng endured the fatigue and got up to blow out the lamp.
The wick made of twine was leaning against the oil lamp bowl, burning quietly. The orange flame was slightly swayed by the wind brought by Han Cheng.
Han Cheng, who was about to blow it out, took a big breath and held it in his chest, but did not blow it out immediately.
He looked at the burning wick with his eyes, looking a little dazed.
After this state lasted for a short while, an uncontrollable joy surged into my heart.
"call!"
This stillness lasted for about thirty or forty seconds, and then Han Cheng exhaled the foul breath.
The flames jumped for a moment, and immediately went out without any extra resistance.
Han Cheng groped his way back to the kang, got into bed, stretched out his hand to hold one of Bai Xuemei's hands, and hugged Bai Xuemei to him, becoming even more excited.
However, this kind of excitement is different from the previous irritability without any clue, but with a kind of relief and ease of finding a solution.
In addition, Bai Xuemei gave him a dose of sleeping pills. After lying here and thinking about things for a while, Han Cheng also fell asleep...
Early the next morning, Han Cheng got busy and began to verify the solution he had thought of in a flash of inspiration last night.
First, I went to the pile of pottery bowls and found a few that were not big and were thinner and lighter than the rest.
Then I started to use something to drill holes on the edge of the bowl. I drilled four holes in total, two facing each other, forming a cross shape.
He also found four very thin leather ropes and passed them through the four holes.
After doing this, tie the other ends of the four leather ropes to the frame of the Kongming Lantern.
The lengths of the four ropes are the same, so that the pottery bowl can be kept in the center under the Kongming Lantern.
They were very concerned about the Kongming Lanterns, the stones, and the lame.
So yesterday, when they returned from collecting rosin, under the guidance of Han Cheng, they boiled the rosin in a small bowl and applied it on the frame of the Kongming Lantern with a piece of bamboo strips.
The snake skin was covered.
As of today, it has been completely done, and the snake skin is extremely strong.
Han Cheng put another ball of linen soaked in rosin into the drilled pottery bowl.
Shi Shi, whose hands were trembling with excitement, held a larger Kongming Lantern than was common in later generations, and straightened a few leather ropes.
Han Cheng stretched a burning stick into the pottery bowl.
The linen soaked in rosin was extremely easy to burn, and soon after it was touched, it ignited into a smoky flame.
Because the opening under the Kongming Lantern is much larger than the bowl, and the bowl is relatively close to the Kongming Lantern, after straightening the leather rope, four ropes tied to the edge of the bowl formed a gap between the bowl and the bowl.
An obtuse angle exceeding one hundred and forty degrees.
In this way, except for the connection point of the bowl rim, the rest of the parts are further and further away from the bowl, avoiding the top of the bowl and not easily burned by the flame.
Hot rises and cold falls. As a person who has always scored high in liberal arts exams, he still remembers this very clearly.
As the flame continues to burn, the airflow under the Kongming Lantern begins to move upward due to the heat, and all of it pours into the sealed Kongming Lantern above.
"let go."
After waiting like this for a while, Han Cheng spoke.
Shitou was very worried that if he let go, the lamp that took him half a day to make yesterday would fall down and be destroyed by the fire.
But after the Son of God said this, he hesitated for a while and then let go...
(I opened the backend just now and saw a 10,000 reward. My groggy mind suddenly woke up. I would like to thank my book friend LE Liangren for the generous reward and all the book friends for their support. Thank you all! However, the update cannot be added for the time being. It will be released in early May.
It’s about to start the thesis defense, so far I haven’t written much, and I’m so panicked... I can only wait for the dark days in the past to come again)
