Chapter 152 Found Obsidian Ingredients (Bi-Monthly Pass)
Next, as it gets closer to dark, the time becomes less and less.
The four people did not have too many discussions on this issue.
Because now two suitable "big rocks" are already in place at the "target palm tree", and the "simple ladder" provided for Shen Gu to climb the tree has been firmly tied there by Su Ziqing and Zhou Yang. On a tree.
So the next step is for everyone to use the remaining "simple ropes" to choose one of the "big rocks" and tie it tightly.
Then the plan was for Shen Gu to climb up first with one end of the rope, and then, with the help of the other three girls, use the rope to move the "big rock" to a suitable position on the tree.
After that, Shen Gu used his greatest strength to lift the stone, and then smashed it hard on the big stone under the tree!
The distance was three to four meters high, and with a "simple ladder" available for climbing, Shen Gu didn't feel much difficulty during the actual climb.
When he sat on the top of the palm tree, he successfully used the rope to get the "big stone" to his side.
The three girls under the tree who had just helped lift the "big stone" immediately ran out of the way!
They even ran to a place more than ten meters away from the tree and stood at a distance.
After all, if they get close and Shen Gu misses again, their bodies will not be able to withstand such a big stone falling from a tall tree, even if it scratches the side!
However, Shen Gu still felt unhappy about their unanimous "exaggerated" distance.
Before he officially lifted the big rock from the tree and threw it down, he half-jokingly protested to the three S-level beauties:
"You have so little confidence in me?"
"That big rock on the ground is such a big target. Even if you don't run that far, I won't accidentally hurt you!"
The "threesome" who were far away exchanged glances with each other after hearing Shen Gu's protest.
Still no one made any move to get even closer to the palm tree.
Among them, Su Ziqing, a super academic, even explained Shen Gu's "protest" with a smile.
Her explanation is:
"Don't think too much, we have confidence in you!"
"We stayed far away because we were afraid that if two big rocks collided, small broken rocks would fly towards us due to the force of the impact."
"So with this explanation, you should feel much better!"
Such an explanation is understandable to Shen Gu.
However, Su Ziqing's tone when explaining seemed a bit like coaxing Shen Gu.
This made Wu Jiayi, who had always been "hostile" to her in her heart, couldn't help laughing after hearing such content and tone!
Years of experience in the entertainment industry made it clear to her that she should side with Su Ziqing at this time.
Because this would make Shen Gu even more angry at Su Ziqing's explanation, and she was just a bystander who expressed her agreement with Su Ziqing's statement.
It stands to reason that in addition to Shen Gu feeling more angry, the focus of his anger will still be on Su Ziqing.
However, Shen Gu showed strong tolerance to Su Ziqing's "provocation" just now.
When Wu Jiayi saw him, she just smiled bitterly, then moved the "big rock" beside her without saying anything.
Then he threw it half forcefully and half downwards, and about 50% of it successfully hit the big rock under the tree that was waiting to be hit!
At the moment when the two stones collided violently, with a loud noise, Shen Gu also saw a "spark" flash past.
However, despite the high impact force, no small rocks flew particularly far.
This makes it even more obvious that the other three girls hid so far away in advance, which is really an exaggeration.
After the two big rocks turned into nine rocks of different sizes due to the collision, Shen Gu slowly climbed down from the top of the palm tree along the ladder.
This is also the first time he has climbed such a high tree since he was a child.
When he first climbed to the top of the tree, he felt a little uncomfortable looking down from above.
When he had to lift the "big rock" up and smash it down, his legs, which he used to fix himself on the top of the tree, began to tremble uncontrollably.
Fortunately, the three girls were far away and no one noticed them. This allowed Shen Guqiang to calmly complete the task of "breaking rocks".
So after getting off the tree, Shen Gu didn't mention the fact that the three girls were hiding away.
He was still secretly sighing in his heart that this thing that made him slightly dissatisfied before actually saved him from the possibility of them laughing at his shaking legs.
After the four people gathered near the "little pile of stones" again, Shen Gu looked at the nine stones that had been smashed in different shapes and fractures and said to Su Ziqing:
"When two big rocks collided just now, I saw sparks appear!"
"If I had known better, I would have put more flammable things around the big rocks below. This would have saved us the trouble of starting a fire later."
Su Ziqing carefully selected two stones from the nine stones, then smiled and said to Shen Gu:
"it does not matter."
"Since there were sparks just now, it means they have the possibility of becoming flint."
"Judging from the color of the cross section, these two pieces should be used to strike fire."
"Are you tired now? If you're not, you can try using them. I'll bring over the flammable plants I've stored before."
After saying that, he stood up and went to a nearby place to get it.
"I'll help get it too!"
Teacher Zhou Yang immediately spoke up and went to get it with Su Ziqing.
Wu Jiayi, on the other hand, stood still. She helped Shen Gu move the other rocks a little further away, so as not to get in the way when the fire was started later.
Flint is a relatively common siliceous rock. Its material is very similar to natural glass. It is a naturally formed silica and is usually black in color.
The two pieces Su Ziqing had just selected from the nine broken stones showed more silica content from the cross-section.
Maybe they are stones erupted from the mountain when the volcano erupted a long time ago.
Therefore, the obsidian component in the stone is also relatively large, and the cross section has taken on the shape of a shell, which looks very sharp.
At this time, Su Ziqing and Zhou Yang had each obtained some herbs that had been dried by the sun.
They first used them to make a fluffy flammable base on the ground.
In order to ensure that the ignition effect would be better, Su Ziqing also placed several pieces of paper torn from a piece of diary paper in the "base".
This also shows that the "pen and paper combination" she chose in the morning is not just for recording.
At this time, you can also take paper from inside to help ignite it.
When Wu Jiayi saw Su Ziqing doing this, she opened her mouth slightly and wanted to say something.
But she still held back for the time being, and she and others squatted on all sides of the "base" to help "light the fire" this time to protect it from the wind.
In the actual operation of making a fire, Shen Gu took one of the suitable stones and knocked it on the other.
The stone that was struck was also placed in the igniter, so that after the knocking produced sparks, the sparks could come into contact with the igniter at a closer distance!
