Answer:

The number 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Mexican fairytale Blanca Flor tells the story of a young woman Blanca Flor being kept prisoner by a tyrant and evil man Don Ricardo. And it was from this man that she along with Juanito escaped.

Blanca Flor used her magic to help Juanito do his tasks and kept him alive. But when the tasks gets more and more difficult, she knew she had no choice but to escape from the evil man. So, she spit three times in the fireplace which will give them time to get away while the spit covers up fro Flor whenever Don Ricardo calls. This spitting three times into the fire used the motif of the number three, where the magic that Blanca Flor has will help them buy some time and get away from the domain of Don Ricardo. Outside of his boundary, his magic will no longer have any effect on them so they needed the magic to help them get away as far as possible.
