Professor Chen thought for a while and replied,
"It's probably because of the rain yesterday. The rain yesterday was too heavy. The sudden increase in the water volume in the nearby sea area must have affected the tide.”
Zhou Ye didn't know about the discussion in the live broadcast hall. At this moment, he had already brought Wukong back to the camp.
He added some wood to the bonfire to make it burn more vigorously.
Then, he brought Wukong to the waterhole and wiped his and Wukong's bodies with clean water.
If he didn't use fresh water to wipe himself after getting out of the sea, the salt in the sea would be left on his body when the water dried up.
After wiping his body, he brought Wukong back to the bonfire to dry the moisture on his body.
While roasting the fish, he placed the fish on the stone slab to roast.
In a short while, the grilled fish was roasted by Zhou Ye until it was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The fragrance assailed his nostrils. When the fish was done, Zhou Ye gave a grilled fish to Wukong.
This time, Wukong learned his lesson and did not stuff it into his mouth immediately. The lesson of roasting the cassava in the afternoon was still fresh in his mind.
Zhou Ye laughed out loud when he saw Wukong's cautious expression.
After eating the grilled fish, Wukong was still a little hungry. It had never eaten such delicious food, even though the golden monkey's main diet was leaves and fruits.
In fact, monkeys could eat meat too, but meat was not their main food. They only found bird eggs and worms to eat to replenish their protein.
This time, Wukong ate cooked fish. The deliciousness of the cooked fish made Wukong unable to stop. He pestered Zhou Ye, wanting to eat more.
"Alright, we'll eat the grilled fish tomorrow. We have something even better now.”
Zhou Ye was a little annoyed by Wukong's pestering. He could only comfort it. Although the grilled fish was delicious, he couldn't eat too much. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to eat the rest of the delicious food.
This delicacy was, of course, the salmon that he had harvested today. Of course, the most delicious ingredient had to be eaten while it was fresh.
Zhou Ye cut the salmon into small pieces and looked at the bright red fish slices. He couldn't help but put a piece into his mouth. His taste buds were instantly occupied by the deliciousness.
When Wukong saw that Zhou Ye only cared about enjoying the delicious food, he immediately became anxious. He instantly went up and snatched the salmon from Zhou Ye.
In just a moment, the man and monkey had finished the salmon.
Looking at the pile of fish bones left, Zhou Ye smacked his lips.
"Sigh, this delicacy is really too little. It's not enough to eat at all.”
Wukong also agreed and said that he must catch more salmon tomorrow. This salmon was really too small.
Zhou Ye was a little full from eating. He sat on the ground and rested for a while.
"Alright, it's time to burn charcoal.”
Zhou Ye stood up and walked towards the pile of wood that he had chopped today. He picked up a piece of wood that was as thick as his thigh and placed it on the ground. He surrounded this piece of wood and placed the other pieces of wood together.
Then, he used the dried twigs that he had stored earlier to fill the gaps between the thick wood.
Just like that, a circle of thick wood and a circle of thin branches filled the gap. The pile of wood gradually grew bigger. Zhou Ye surrounded a pile of wood that was about one meter in diameter.
After the wood was piled up, Zhou Ye poured out the clay that he had brought back. He used the water in the waterhole to make the clay into a thin mud.
Zhou Ye pasted the mud layer by layer on the wood until he used up all the mud he had brought back.
The entire pile of wood was tightly sealed by clay. From the outside, it looked like a small mound.
Zhou Ye started to dig out small holes for ventilation on the mound. Starting from the bottom of the mound, he dug out six fist-sized holes that were symmetrical to each other.
This was not the end. Ten centimeters above the first row of small holes, he began to dig out six symmetrical small holes.
Then, he dug out four small holes 10 centimeters above the small hole on the second layer. Finally, he dug out a hole 10 centimeters above the top of the mound.
In this way, a total of four levels of ventilation holes were repaired. Zhou Ye took out a piece of burning wood and ignited the pile of wood from the ventilation hole at the bottom.
Soon, the pile of wood was ignited. The flames started from the bottom of the pile of wood and began to burn upwards.
Because there was a vent, the air was in direct circulation. In a short while, the flames had reached the vent on the second floor.
When the fire came out of the ventilation hole on the second floor, Zhou Ye used clay to seal the ventilation hole on the first floor.
Just like that, Zhou Ye sealed all the ventilation holes with clay layer by layer, leaving only a small hole at the top.
He let the fire continue burning for about ten minutes. When the flames in the air vent started to die down, Zhou Ye used clay to seal the last air vent.
When the audience in the live streaming room saw Zhou Ye's actions, they were all dumbfounded. They had no idea what Zhou Ye was doing.
"What is the host doing? He lit a bonfire and then covered it with mud. This was simply crazy.”
"Yes, it's understandable to light a bonfire, but to use soil to destroy it is a little confusing.”
"The campfire that the streamer lit this time is quite big. Could it be that the streamer was afraid of causing a fire, so he used soil to extinguish the campfire?”
The audience in the live broadcast room was discussing enthusiastically, and the people in the live broadcast hall were also discussing intensely.
The host, Qian Hao, looked at Professor Chen. As a professor at Federal University, Professor Chen's knowledge was unquestionable.
"Professor Chen, what exactly is Zhou Ye doing? If he had only lit a bonfire and used soil to destroy it in the end, it would be completely meaningless.”
Xu Wei quickly added,
"Yes, yes, yes. At first, I thought that Zhou Ye covered the campfire with soil to control the fire and not cause a fire. But in the end, Zhou Ye's actions were completely unnecessary.”
She was also curious about Zhou Ye's technique.
"In the beginning, Zhou Ye sealed the air vent and controlled the fire. But in the end, he clearly controlled the fire. Why did he put out the fire? This is really puzzling."
Professor Chen thought for a while and shook his head in the end. He wasn't sure what other motives Zhou Ye had for doing this.
"I'm not too sure what Zhou Ye's final action is. In the beginning, Zhou Ye covered the pile of wood with soil. It was probably to control the circulation of air and the size of the fire.
However, in the end, he covered the fire with soil and extinguished it. Other than Zhou Ye wanting to extinguish the fire, I couldn't think of any other use.”
"That…Do you think Zhou Ye just wanted to extinguish the bonfire?”
The host, Qian Hao, asked with some uncertainty. Although he didn't really understand the principle of combustion, after listening to Professor Chen's introduction, an idea suddenly appeared in his mind.
Hearing Qian Hao's soul question, Professor Chen and Xu Wei instantly felt awkward.
They had been analyzing Zhou Ye's actions. They didn't expect that Zhou Ye's actions might be a simple attempt to extinguish the fire.
