Chapter 27
Flipping through the flint pile on the gentle slope, Han Yuan first picked up a palm-sized and flat flint, handed it to the camera, and said:
"There are generally two ways to make stone axes."

"One is to find a suitable stone, like the one in my hand, and then grind it continuously, just like sharpening a knife, to grind out the edge of the axe, so that the stone tools that are ground are durable, but it takes a long time .”

"But I'm only using it temporarily, so I don't care if it's durable."

"So I choose another one that takes less time."

"That's for smashing!"

"Just like me, smash it directly! Then pick the right one from the pieces."

As he said that, Han Yuan threw the flint in his hand, picked up a stone the size of a human head, and smashed it hard on another big stone.

Immediately, the piece of flint shattered into pieces of various sizes.

Han Yuan stepped forward carefully to prevent himself from cutting his feet when he stepped on the gravel, and picked among the gravel.

Finally, among the large and small fragments, I found two stones that looked quite good.

One was thicker, and looked a bit like a baguette, but it had a fresh cut, sharp enough to be used as an ax for cutting down trees.

The other piece is a palm-sized piece, no more than two fingers thick at its widest point, with a very thin opening and a very sharp stone flake.

However, such a flake of stone is no longer suitable for making an axe. It is too brittle, and it will be damaged if it is hit with a little force.

Although not suitable for making an axe, it is very good for cutting things, so he picked it up.

Picking up the two stones, Won showed off for the camera.

"These two stones are okay. This stone, which looks a bit like a baguette, can be used as an axe."

"As for the flaky one, let me show you how sharp it is!"

As he spoke, he took the piece of flint and found a bush that was as thick as two fingers. The sharp opening scratched a circle against the bark, and the bark on the bush was easily cut off.

With a simple pull, a bark with leaves was torn off by him.

[I'm going, artifact! 】

[This can be used to make a stone axe, absolutely fine!A single ax can break bones. 】

[Really sharp! 】

[Study is useless, let's go out and find a quick stone to throw at it. 】

[It's really nothing, I can do it myself! 】

[Is the stone really that sharp? 】

[Upstairs, go to a certain treasure to have a look. There are manual DIY stone knives on it. It is much sharper than the anchor, and it looks better. Although the anchor is sharp, it is not ugly. 】

The bark won ripped from the bushes was also thrown away.

This is a very good material. It can be used as a rope after a little kneading. It is absolutely flexible enough.

When he built his shelter, the ropes used to fasten the backbone were bark peeled from the branches of bushes as thick as your thumb.

Considering that flint is sharp but brittle, he smashed a few more stones and picked two suitable materials from the middle.

There are three stone axes and one stone knife in total.

I cut some shrub bark and tied it up, and returned to the shelter with these stone tools won.

By the time we got back to the shelter, the sun had already slanted to the west, and it would be dark in an hour or so.

I have to say that it is really difficult for a person to survive in the wilderness rainforest.

Even if he is so lucky, he can't do much in a day.

Sometimes when there is a heavy rain, it will make you unable to do anything.

Looking at the sky, Han Yuan reckoned that he would not be able to attach handles to the three stone axes today.

Although it had rained, he still had to seize the time to find some relatively dry wood or oily wood to start a bonfire.

Apart from other things, he needs to eat something!

Moving house, building the stove, and the kiln have consumed a lot of his energy today. If he doesn't replenish his energy, he probably won't even have the energy to get up tomorrow.

Putting down the extra ax in his hand and taking a smaller stone ax, Han Yuan went straight into the forest.

This move made the audience in the live broadcast room curious.

Everyone was waiting for him to put a handle on the stone axe, but unexpectedly he ran away.

[Where is the anchor going? 】

[Stop making stone axes? 】

[It should be to find the material for the handle of the axe, right? 】

[The sun is about to set, be careful to get lost, anchor! 】

[Isn't it enough to just find the handle of the ax and a branch?It’s only used once and not for a long time, so why bother, isn’t there all kinds of trees around the shelter? 】

While looking for firewood, Han Yuan looked at the bullet screen and said, "I'm not looking for the handle of the axe, but firewood."

"Today was moving again and building a stove, which consumed a lot of my physical strength. In addition, I haven't eaten all day, so I'm already hungry and exhausted."

"If I don't light a fire and eat some cooked food at night, I'm afraid I won't have the strength to get up tomorrow."

[It rained only at noon, where did the host go to find dry firewood! 】

[Everywhere is wet, if it were me, I wouldn't run, waste energy meaninglessly! 】

[The anchor should go back to sleep, at least he can recover some energy, isn't there still some dried fish, can he eat a little bit of that? 】

[What about cassava?Then a lot of cassava can also be eaten! 】

【Vain! 】

Glancing at the bullet screen, Han Yuan smiled and said, "Everyone is right. After the heavy rain, there is almost no dry firewood in this rainforest. It is normal to say that my efforts were in vain."

"But what I'm looking for is not necessarily dry firewood. Sometimes, wet firewood can also be used."

Hearing this, there were question marks in the live broadcast room.

Seeing a question mark, Han Yuan raised a smile and said, "Although most of the wet wood can't burn, that's not all of them."

"For example, pine trees and tung trees that contain a lot of oil, even if they are soaked in water for a long time, the core of the tree can still be ignited if the shell is removed, and it is easy to ignite."

"In the tropical rainforest, the most indispensable thing is all kinds of plants. As long as you know them, there are treasures everywhere."

Suddenly, Han Yuan caught a glimpse of a tall tree out of the corner of his eye, stopped walking, and turned to check it.

After checking, he sighed. Although the tree looked like what he was looking for, it was not.

The tree he was looking for was called oil tree, which is not the name of a tree, but a collection of trees.

As you can tell from the name, this tree is rich in oil.

For example, diesel oil can be extracted from the sap of the oleifera tree in China, and the oil content of the fruit of the tung tree in Nanyang, Thailand exceeds 60.00%.

Naturally, there is no shortage of this type of trees in the tropical rainforest. The more common ones are oil palm and copaiba.

That's what he's looking for.
