The most traditional way of ignition in China.

There are three main ways of life of ancient people. 1 is a common way to make a fire by using natural conditions. For example, some lightning strikes some trees and produces a lot of flames. The second way is to drill wood for fire, which generates high temperature through continuous rotation and finally ignites the surrounding things. The third way is to use the legendary fire passbook, which can play a very good role in life. But these methods are very backward in modern society, because there are many ways to make a fire in our contemporary society, such as gas and natural gas, and lighters, which are very convenient, but we also have to admire that under the backward productivity conditions in ancient times, these ancients were able to invent so many lifestyles, which really surprised us.

In primitive life, people live a very primitive and backward life. At that time, most of the food people ate was raw, but one day, people found a red flame on the tree cut down by lightning. When people put these foods on the flame, they found that they were more delicious. That is, from this time on, people's diet has undergone earth-shaking changes, and people have mastered more life through their own practice. Therefore, in order to satisfy their appetites, people have developed many methods of artificial fire in their own lives, among which 1 is to drill wood for fire.

The principle of drilling wood for fire is also very simple, that is, a temperature is generated through the friction between the two. When the temperature reaches the critical value, some dry things around will be ignited instantly. But this method is very troublesome in use. It requires people to have high explosive power, so not everyone can finish it, which leads to drilling for fire, and its application range is relatively narrow.

It was not until later that people invented the fire passbook. The method of the fire passbook is very simple, that is, after some paper rolls are lit, they are taken out and covered. When people want to use it again, they just need to pull open the lid and blow on the ignition core, so it can burn again. We have to say that this is a great invention, but with the arrival of modern society in China, this traditional passbook was abandoned and replaced by some matches and lighters invented by foreigners.
