C3 The Birth of Fire, Roasting Delicious Food!

At dawn, Wu Xiaoming was still sleeping soundly. A beautiful little girl was holding a furry animal hair and scratching his nose. "Lu Qinying, stop messing around! I'll sleep for a while more!" He was woken up by a start. He had completely forgotten that he had been killed by her. He had transmigrated into the ancient era.

"Who is Lu Qinying? Is she a deer that can be eaten?" A pleasant female voice sounded.

At this moment, Wu Xiaoming was completely awake. "She is the most despicable thing in the world. She can't be eaten and is poisonous!"

"Oh! Uncle Di told me to wake you up and eat." After saying that, Chang'e jumped out of the cave.

Wu Xiaoming looked around and realized that he was the only one who was still sleeping. Everyone else had already gone out. He rubbed his eyes and walked out of the cave.

"No, I have to create a fire immediately. Otherwise, I will starve to death!" Looking at the thirty-something people splitting the wolf meat and eating it bloody, Wu Xiaoming couldn't help but feel disgusted.

"Hurry up! This is for you. After eating, you have to go collect the dried fruits. The winter is almost here, so you have to store some dry fruits." Uncle Di handed a piece of wolf meat that weighed more than a hundred kilograms to Wu Xiaoming. He looked at the bloody large piece of meat and felt that his stomach was growling. Even though he was hungry, he couldn't eat it.

"Uncle Di, I'm not hungry yet. I'll keep it for dinner!" He casually threw the large piece of meat to the cave entrance.

This morning, Wu Xiaoming was stunned by the appetite of the villagers. In less than an hour, the four Devouring Eyes Wolves only had their fur and bones left. They were really a bunch of good-for-nothings! He really didn't know how they had survived the harsh winter. Later on, Wu Xiaoming found out that all the primitive people would have a large increase in appetite during the autumn. They would work hard to eat like bears in the autumn and raise their bodies until winter. They could survive the harsh winter without eating or drinking, but they could also survive the cold winter by eating the fruits and roots of the plants.

After breakfast, Uncle Di led the nine adult men to the forest not far away to hunt. The remaining two adult men led Wu Xiaoming and the women and children to dig up all kinds of roots from the edge of the forest not far away from the river, collecting all kinds of berries.

According to Chang'e, other than Uncle Di, the rest of the adults had no names. Uncle Di was still the name given by the Patriarch Shennong. The children all had their own names, but Wu Xiaoming didn't know what their names were other than Chang'e. Because other than himself, the other children all had their own parents, and the people only cared about rushing on the road. After their parents died, they became even more antisocial and never talked to anyone else.

While harvesting the roots and collecting the berries, Wu Xiaoming also didn't forget to look for suitable wood to make a fire.

"What are you picking up these withered branches for?" Chang'e saw him pick up a large pile of withered branches of all kinds of trees and could not help but ask curiously.

"Of course it's to start a fire." Wu Xiaoming said as he picked up a piece of wood and threw it into the pile of wood.

"Fire? Is that the thing you talked about yesterday?" Chang'e stared at him curiously. Wu Xiaoming was too lazy to bother with Chang'e and continued to collect the berries. Seeing that he was not talking to her, Chang'e also lowered her head to pick the berries. The group of more than twenty people slowly approached the river bank.

"Be careful!" Suddenly, a loud roar came from behind. Wu Xiaoming and the others who were collecting the berries were stunned.

"Ah!" A scream came from behind them. A child who was with Chang'e was cut in half by a huge black pincer. Blood spurted onto Chang'e's delicate face, and she stood there blankly as if she was scared silly.

Wu Xiaoming quickly pulled Chang'e and ran away. "Run!" In less than a minute, everyone gathered together and the two adult warriors escorted them as they slowly retreated.

Only then did Wu Xiaoming see what kind of animal had suddenly attacked them. Two huge pincers clamped together, and the triangular snake head was like a huge python. The scarlet snake's tongue kept on spitting, and the vicious triangular eyes stared at the retreating crowd. Its hard shell was like armor, and its eight legs were like crab legs as they moved, chasing after them.

The two warriors had no way to deal with it. If they couldn't fight it barehanded, they would just be sending it to the door. Especially those two huge pincers, they were like two huge scissors protecting it. They could only cover the women and children as they retreated.

"Good stuff!" Wu Xiaoming licked his lips as he looked at the strange crab that was as big as a rhinoceros. He liked to eat crabs the most. The first thing he did every month after receiving his salary was to go to the aquarium to buy seven or eight crabs to eat. Unfortunately, he could only buy a few crabs to quench his hunger when he received his salary.

"How much would it cost to transport such a big crab to my previous life?"

Wu Xiaoming picked up a three-meter-long, thick, dried branch with both hands. He pushed the two warriors in front of him away and rushed forward bravely.

"Cling!" He kept using the front end of the tree branch to tease the huge crab. The crab's two huge pincers tightly clamped onto a tree branch. With a creaking sound, Wu Xiaoming tried his best to shake the tree branch that was tightly clamped.

Suddenly, Wu Xiaoming released the tightly clamped tree branch. He grabbed the other tree branch with both hands and aimed it at the triangular snake head. He smashed it down fiercely. The crab twitched a few times before it stopped moving.

The most fundamental difference between humans and animals was that they could use tools. Wu Xiaoming completely despised the way Uncle Di and the others fought. They fought barehanded, yet they did not know how to use their intelligence. They only knew how to fight with their lives on the line. They were too stupid.

If it was not for Wu Xiaoming, who was an experienced foodie, today, everyone here would have turned into crab shit.

"Wow! Man, you're so awesome!" The people cheered. The child's mother was not too sad. After all, she had died every day in the past. She was already used to it. No one knew if she would close her eyes forever.

Wu Xiaoming put the child's corpse together and mobilized everyone to dig a tomb to bury him at the edge of the forest. He told everyone that if anyone was killed or died of old age, they would be buried in the tomb. He saw the faint gratitude in the people's eyes, and he couldn't help but feel happy.

After losing a child, the clansmen no longer collected. They packed up the things they had collected and returned to the cave on the cliff. Wu Xiaoming had too many things, especially the large pile of firewood. Fortunately, there were two warriors, otherwise, they wouldn't be able to transport it back.

Wu Xiaoming patted his stomach that was rumbling with hunger. "It's time to start a fire." He was still too simple when it came to digging wood and lighting a fire. In his previous life, it was very easy for Lord De and Lord Bei to start a fire, but he didn't expect it to be so difficult for him.

The friction was like the footsteps of a demon. It was so close that his hand was almost torn apart. It didn’t even burn, and it would only start smoking every time it was moved to the fire. It would be extinguished every time it was moved to the fire.

"Why haven't I seen the fire you mentioned?" Looking at Chang'e and a boy called Dong, Wu Xiaoming was extremely embarrassed. If there was a hole in the ground, he would definitely crawl in. Everyone went to the cave to rest, and Chang'e and Dong accompanied him to watch him busy himself with the fire for three to four hours.

"It's almost time. Wait a little longer." He glanced at Dong and changed a different branch.

He was a boy who was even better looking than him, Chang'e said. Ever since Wu Xiaoming killed the two warriors that he couldn't kill, he was like a follower. Wherever Wu Xiaoming went, he would follow.

"This time, I must succeed. If I don't succeed, I will starve to death!" Wu Xiaoming's hands quickly rotated the wooden stick, and smoke came out. He quickly rotated it even faster. When he saw the sparks, he carefully placed the scattered sparks onto the fire. He blew them gently and carefully pressed the dried branches onto the small fire. The fire slowly grew bigger. Wu Xiaoming was about to cry as he looked at the red fire. He had never been so excited in his two lives.

"Human, this is fire!" Chang'e was about to reach out to touch the fire when Wu Xiaoming slapped her back. Seeing Chang'e's aggrieved expression, he picked up a piece of branch and placed it on the fire. After a while, he took out the burning branch and gave it to Chang'e.

"Did you see that? Fire is very dangerous!" "Oh!" Chang'e replied. She looked at the excited person and laughed happily. Dong quietly watched from the side and giggled. It looked like he was in his previous life.

After the initial excitement, Wu Xiaoming became depressed again. "What's going on? Why is there nothing? Shouldn't there be a great Dao of Virtue descending? No way, could it be that there is no God? Chang'e didn't hear any legends, right? There is no Mother God Nvwa." He wanted to cry but had no tears. He looked up and saw that it was almost dark. The sun was about to set. "Ah!" He roared like he was venting.

"Ahahaha!" The people in the cave all rushed out with loud cheers.

"It's a good thing. So what if you don't have the Virtue of the Great Dao? So what if you don't have the so-called God? At least the people around you will be happy for him!" Just as he was about to finish, Wu Xiaoming's face couldn't help but darken. He saw Uncle Di and the others slowly walking out of the forest with a huge wild beast in each of their hands.

The people surrounded Uncle Di and the others and shouted and jumped. Seeing this warm scene, Wu Xiaoming couldn't help but laugh. He didn't go over, but Chang'e had already run over and shouted and jumped like a little fairy.

"Uncle Di, you are so strong! You are so brave!" Chang'e excitedly told Uncle Di about Wu Xiaoming's brave act of fighting the crabs. At the end, she added, "Look, that is the fire created by humans. It's very powerful. The branches will be burnt to ashes in a moment!"

"Human, you have grown up." Uncle Di looked at Wu Xiaoming with a gratified look, then looked at the huge crab that was as big as a rhinoceros. Its shell was shining like armor. It was also very difficult for him to deal with the two huge pincers. Looking at the burning firewood, Uncle Di asked, "Can you tell me what this fire is used for?"

"The fire can be used to cook food and prevent wild beasts from invading. It can also light up the night." Wu Xiaoming said as he picked up the huge piece of meat from the morning and put it on a wooden shelf to be roasted. He also lit a few more fires and made a wooden shelf to put the crabs on it. In a short while, the fragrance of the meat continuously stimulated people's taste buds.

Wu Xiaoming smiled as he looked at the drooling crowd. So what if I can't become an emperor? I've already obtained the most precious thing. I will do my best to protect this happiness. He secretly swore that the rolling thunder in the sky seemed to acknowledge his oath.
