There is no communication between the two. Their eyes were fixed on the clock the entire time, and they did not dare to take their eyes off in the slightest.
When there was only one minute left, Feng Yu Heng silently reminded. "Prepare to open the furnace. When two seconds are left, it must be taken from the furnace."
Xuan Tian Ming nodded, his hands remaining on the hilt of the furnace.
Finally, the last minute is over. Almost instantly as the seconds hand reached 12 o'clock, Xuan Tian Ming opened the furnace, and a heat wave came out. When the shovel was pulled out of the furnace, he heard Feng Yu Heng shouting. "Successful!"
As soon as these two words came out of his mouth, Xuan Tian Ming also became emotional. Looking at the iron charcoal on the shovel, he asked Feng Yu Heng doubtfully. "Did it really work?"
Feng Yu Heng nodded, "Yes! Not only do you succeed, you make the best. With this, our next step will have a solid foundation. Xuan Tian Ming, you are truly an expert!"
He sincerely praised him, and Xuan Tian Ming also sighed in relief. This is just the first step. If they had to repeat the first step too often, morale would drop too low.
"We must continue to produce iron charcoal." Feng Yu Heng said. "Although we were just trying to produce a piece of steel, the intermediate step would end in countless failures. With each failure, the material will become small pieces. Making iron charcoal is the first step, and we have to make sure that we have sufficient amount of ingredients from this first step to proceed to the next step."
Xuan Tian Ming nodded, "Alright, then let's make a few more batches. Whatever it is, it's more practice." As he said this, he moved the successful piece aside and placed more materials into the furnace, starting another round of iron charcoal making.
This time, he was a little more trained. He also gets better at reading time than the clock. Practically Feng Yu Heng no longer needed to remind him. He is able to handle the whole process on his own.
However, Xuan Tian Ming did not think that when pulled out this time, his wife would shake her head. "Not good, the quality is worse than last time. There should be a problem with the temperature at the beginning. We're kind of in a hurry. You should be a little more calm."
"Then let's try again." Without saying a word, he started working once more.
Fourth time, success. Fifth time, success. Sixth time, failed. Seventh time, success. Feng Yu Heng kept on recording his thoughts. In the beginning, there will be two successes for each failure. Sometimes, there will be two failures in a row. After Xuan Tian Ming did it for the sixteenth time, his success rate began to increase linearly, as he managed ten times in a row.
Feng Yu Heng told him. "You have mastered the essence of iron charcoal making. The number of products we have now is enough to be used freely unless there is an unexpected problem. Let's do this now and move on. If we really don't have enough, we can go back and earn more."
Xuan Tian Ming nodded and looked at the clock once more, saying. "We can't continue. You need to rest." He pointed to the clock and said. "Based on the rules of time you teach, it should now be dinner time. Also, this is dinner time on the second day since we entered this place. Heng Heng, it's been night since you last slept, and you haven't eaten anything."
Xuan Tian Ming helplessly told him. "During that time, they came six times, and I could even smell the rice, but they were chased away by you."
"I kicked them out?" Feng Yu heng did not remember the matter of expelling people at all, "How is it possible?"
"How could that not be possible?" Xuan Tian Ming pointed to the pile of empty mineral water bottles and said. "If it wasn't for this, I think we'd die of dehydration."
Feng Yu Heng lost his mind! When did he take out so many bottles of mineral water? Looking at the number of bottles, it was not enough for one full container, but it was more than half the case. Damn, he had taken out so many items from his sleeves, Xuan Tian Ming must have viewed him as some kind of monster.
As he thought about his nonsense, he turned to look at Xuan Tian Ming. Surprised, he notices that he is actually ... "What are you eating?" Feng Yu Heng regained control and rushed to his side. Staring with eyes full of horror, he tore the paper hanging from his mouth.
Then, then he fell silent.
During the past day and night, what exactly had he done?
"My wife dear, if you don't want your husband to starve to death, it's best to return that thing to me. That's pretty filling."
Is it possible not to fill? Feng Yu Heng looked at the thing in his hand. That's Yili yogurt. Hey, hey, what exactly does he do when producing slag? Sure enough, his old habits have resurfaced. Once he becomes very focused on any issue, he will forget about important body needs such as food and water. But forgetting is only on a conscious level. However, his mind would continue to send and receive information. At the same time, the body will be quickly directed by the brain to do this important thing. Many times, he did not notice this because he was concentrating on something. For example, while producing iron charcoal for steel, he drank while removing bottle after bottle of water from his place. When hungry, he will take food like yogurt out of place. All of this is done unconsciously. His conscious mind would not notice it at all.
Feng Yu Heng continued to think. His secret room also has instant noodles. Fortunately, he did not take out that instant noodle.
"That's..." He found it a bit difficult to continue pretending. The floor was filled with bottles, and there were even some sandwich wrappers. Xuan Tian Ming was not an idiot. If he didn't say something now, he wouldn't be able to give any explanation. That's why he helplessly said. "If you have something you want to ask, please. Things I can admit, I'll do. If I really can't explain, don't pick me."
Xuan Tian Ming smiled bitterly and reached out to her. Feng Yu Heng was surprised. Thinking a little, he also extended his hand. However, as a result, Xuan Tian Ming said. "For what did you give me your hand? I'd like you to let me drink more of that sweet and sour drink. Husband is very hungry."
Very well! He admitted defeat and obediently handed over the rest of the yogurt. However, in his mind, he thought that he should put more food in his place when he had some free time. Things like steamed buns, dumplings, noodles, pastries, and fruit, she needed more. If there was an urgent matter, he would have more options when it came to food.
