Since it was a waste of time, Lei Zhenyun planned to improve the technological level of these natives as a whole. First, he taught them how to drill wood to make fire. When Lei Zhenyun was a child, he did not have matches in the mountains. He relied on drilling wood to make fire to get fire. So he was very familiar with it. He pulled the small bow while slowly blowing dry velvet grass, which really made him miss the carefree days he had in the past.

The natives didn't know what he was doing, but seeing him squatting on the ground and fiddling with the small bow in his hand, they all surrounded him. However, the work of drilling wood to make fire was quite long, and Lei Zhenyun couldn't find the right wood, so after looking at it for a while, most of the natives dispersed, and only those girls and the queen who had just become widows remained by his side and did not leave.

Lei Zhenyun looked at the natives who walked away. It seemed that there was a reason why they were so backward. They were really impatient. If they were not patient, they could not calm down and complete something. How could they make progress? In contrast, the villagers in the mountains of Hainan are really much better than them.

Let's go, there are still a few audiences here. If you hand over the technique of drilling wood and making fire to them, you can pass it on to everyone.

As he continued to drill, a faint light smoke slowly emerged from the velvet grass. The women around him actually wanted to get close to Lei Zhenyun and had some plans. But when they saw the smoke coming out of the velvet grass, they were all attracted by the light smoke. As Lei Zhenyun slowly blew, a thin and weak flame emerged from the velvet grass. These girls were startled at the beginning, but in the blink of an eye, they all cheered and heard, fire, fire actually appeared like this.

The indigenous people on the Andaman Islands are the only humans in the world who do not know how to make fire. They have always relied on the fire that continues the fire of the thunder and fire. Once the fire of the thunder and fire is not preserved well, they can only wait for the next lightning strike. For this fire, wars have frequently broken out between the islands of Andaman for tens of thousands of years. In the end, a price for borrowing fire was even more common, and 30 young women were used to exchange fire for fire.

Sentinel Island is the smallest and most remote island on the Andaman Islands, but because its area is too small, it cannot preserve several fire seeds at the same time as other large islands. Their population is also small. If you hand over 30 women at a time, the entire tribe will basically stop.

For this reason, the indigenous people on Sentinel Island became so fierce. When their fire was cut off, they would go out to grab it. If other islanders came to retaliate, they would fight to the death. Over time, the other islands would be too lazy to care about them. It would not be worth it.

The Andaman Islands have an area of ​​more than 6,000 kilometers and a population of hundreds of thousands. They can't go to Sentinel Island for the big place, and the people on the archipelago are not verified by language. Sentinel Island is still far from the main island, and it was even more difficult to provoke them once, so they just prepared a stone circle near Sentinel Island.

The rule formed over tens of thousands of years is that when the people on Sentinel Island have no fire, they will pile wood in the circle. When the people on the main island see it, they will get a fire. The people on Sentinel Island come and take it away. Before taking it away, they usually leave some food and drink for the people on the main island.

The fire on Sentinel Island has lasted for tens of thousands of years, but it is strange that none of the natives in the entire Andaman Islands thought of creating fire by themselves. Perhaps their living environment can easily preserve the fire left over from the sky fire. It was not until more than 200 years ago that Europeans set foot on this land, which brought them the dawn of modern civilization and also brought infectious diseases that have never appeared on the archipelago.

The Andaman Islands are now incorporated into India's territory, and India is a British colony, so there is a not-so-large British office on the main island of Andaman, but it is basically in a situation where there is nothing to do. Because the natives on the Andaman Islands have their own rules to manage their own society, the British's set of things will not work on the island at all, and the British have no intention of caring about them. They just keep exiling a large number of criminals to the island, treating this place as a huge prison.

However, the British were not just unwilling to manage this archipelago, and they did not take it seriously. After Myanmar was defeated, the British government, who realized that the Japanese would take advantage of the victory to attack, first thought was that this archipelago that was isolated from the Indian subcontinent could not be defended. This was the Japanese's must attack, because controlling this island was equivalent to controlling the necessary place for the Strait of Malacca to go to the Western waters. If the Japanese army wanted to consolidate the occupied area of ​​Southeast Asia, they must occupy the archipelago.

So while the British brought the retreating British troops back to India from the Myanmar battlefield, they also retreated all the defenders stationed in the Andaman Islands. The Andaman Islands are now in an unmanaged vacuum, while the Japanese attacking troops are now on a boat to fight here, and their target is Port Blair, the capital of the Andaman Islands.

With the wish of literacy for everyone, Lei Zhenyun taught these girls around him step by step how to make fire by drilling wood, but he found that the girls in front of him seemed not to be sitting next to him for the sake of learning.

They seemed to be not thinking about how to learn, but kept stroking the tattoos on Lei Zhenyun's body. The expressions in their eyes made Lei Zhenyun unable to understand them at all.

Only the widow's expression was different from those of these girls. Maybe she was smarter. She probably felt how important the ability taught by Lei Zhenyun was, so after operating it a little clumsyly, she became more and more proficient.

Lei Zhenyun was happy, and at the same time, he became more and more annoyed by the other girls. He kept touching his tattoos, looking at the one on his arms and then looking at the one on his pants, and then he had to start with his pants. How could he continue like this?

So when Lei Zhenyun saw the widow queen learnt, he immediately threw away everyone and climbed into a small shack on the tree. The shack was too small to hold a second person at all, so those girls could only stand under the tree and chattered and didn't know what they were saying. Lei Zhenyun couldn't understand anyway, so he gave up and hid on it and couldn't get down.

When he taught all the girls to drill wood to make fire, he found that the people in the tribe were busy preparing, and pieces of meat were being put on the fire. There were also fish and whole turtles, all of them were bleeding by these natives and buried in the fire.

Lei Zhenyun was not very resistant to those fish, turtles, and so on, because he ate them in the mountains of Hainan, but he really didn't dare to accept the meat that was roasted on wood. He still clearly remembered the scene of these indigenous people cutting their flesh on dead German sailors and barbecuing them.
