Tall cliffs had sparse trees growing on them, and over time, many branches had fallen into the valley, perfect for firewood. Everyone collected a lot, but they were all soaked by the rain, making them difficult to ignite. However, this didn't deter everyone. With nothing else to do, they used military knives to shave wood chips. The wood chips dried quickly, and with the bullets taken out, the heads removed, some of the inside powder poured out, and ignited, the wood chips caught fire.
The fire was small but slowly burning. Everyone carefully nurtured it, and gradually the flames grew. They added branches about the size of chopsticks to dry and burn. Once evaporated of moisture, the branches also ignited, and the fire grew stronger. Seeing the campfire blaze, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.
