Chapter 30: The Intuition of Finding Water (Seeking Collection)
"The bones of this little mouse are suitable for making bone needles, they are small and quite hard. ”
Xu Yi felt that this harvest was more realistic than the system just prompted to improve the intuition of water seeking.
Xu Yi picked out two head and leg bones and prepared to polish them for a while.
Sharpen their ends, and then find a way to make a depression in the tail, which can be used to tie the string.
A piercing?
That's so unrealistic, I don't have such a tool myself.
"No, I have a needle to change my phone card. ”
Xu Yi took out his mobile phone, unwrapped the protective case, and then took out a tool needle used to change the mobile phone card from it.
"With this, you should be able to make a hole in the bone?"
Xu Yi said happily, glad that he put it on the back of his phone.
"Can this silicone shell be used?"
Xu Yi looked at the silicone shell and thought about it.
You should use everything you can use, and you can't waste any kind of resources you have.
"After softening, transform it into a water cup?"
"It doesn't seem to be enough, this silicone is still very thin, and it will leak if you don't get it right. ”
"Forget it, let's put it back first, and then do it when I think of it. ”
Xu Yi put back the mobile phone case and the thimble used to change the card.
The bone needle in his hand had not yet been sharpened, and there was no point in drilling it now.
Holding the fine bones, Xu Yi polished them on his stone knife.
I can't sleep at night, so Xu Yi always has to find something for himself.
Otherwise, he felt that he could not stay up until dawn and then fall asleep.
This place is not suitable for two people to sleep, the risk is too high, and one person has to keep vigil.
When polishing, you have to be more careful, otherwise you will grind your own hands.
If the skin breaks, there is a risk of infection.
In the wilderness, try to avoid getting hurt yourself.
The best way to protect your hands is to wear gloves.
Therefore, Xu Yi planned to use snakeskin to sew a pair of snakeskin gloves for himself and Coco after polishing his bone needle.
However, after grinding halfway, the bone needle in Xu Yi's hand was scrapped.
Because the bones are hollow, they become easy to break when they are sharpened.
"Looks like I'm going to have to use snake bones, or fish bones. ”
Because the prehistoric serpent was too big, its bones were not very suitable and needed to be polished for too long.
Before, he grabbed two big ones by himself, and they were too small, and the bones were very short, and they were not suitable.
At the very least, you need to find a large snake of the right thickness, or a large fish that can use their bones to sharpen the bone needles.
Of course, he can also try his hand at firing pottery needles.
After glancing at the time, Xu Yi found that it was only past three o'clock.
Although no wild beasts had been approaching, he couldn't go to sleep carelessly.
He added some firewood, and then Xu Yi went to the place where the snakeskin was smoked, and also added some firewood, leaves, and wet grass there.
After coming back, Xu Yi closed his eyes and recuperated for a while, so that his body could just rest a little.
Finally, Xu Yi stayed up until dawn.
It didn't take long after dawn for Su Keke to wake up.
"Audience, today is the 5th day, I didn't expect us to spend 5 days smoothly. ”
"Although we have not been able to find a water source, we are able to meet our daily drinking water needs with the help of water vines. ”
"Today, hopefully we can find a source of water and then find a suitable place to build a shelter. ”
As of this morning, there are still 5,098 challengers who have persevered.
However, as time goes on, more and more people will be eliminated.
Xu Yi didn't know what was going on with the others, but he was quite satisfied with his current state.
It's been 5 days since he entered the parallel world, and neither he nor Su Keke are hungry, and no one is hungry.
He thinks that there should not be many challengers who can do this.
The two of them rinsed their mouths with the few remaining vines, drank some water, and then began to eat rabbit meat.
Because the rabbit is relatively large, after breakfast, there is still a large piece of meat left, which is estimated to be a catty.
"Well, it's supposed to be our lunch. ”
Xu Yi handed it to Su Keke and asked her to put it in the basket.
Then, Xu Yi went to pack up the snakeskin.
"It's soft, but it would be nice to be softer. ”
"However, at present, we can only do this. In the evening, I smoke it for another night to see if I can make it softer. ”
Now these snakeskins are used to make tents and satchels, and backpacks are no problem.
But if you want to make gloves, it's not soft enough.
The 15-meter-long snakeskin is still a bit heavy.
However, after Xu Yi's strength improved, his physical fitness was a little better, and he didn't feel much with more than a dozen catties of snake skin on his back.
After extinguishing the fire, Xu Yi and Su Keke continued to set off.
"I think it's more likely that I'll find water in this direction. ”
Originally, Xu Yi was going to go in the direction he had originally thought, but he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and chose another direction.
This kind of flash of inspiration is the system's rewarded water-seeking intuition?
Not by experience, but by intuition?
This is too metaphysical, isn't it?
After thinking about it, Xu Yi felt that he still had to believe in the system.
This inexplicable feeling he didn't have before.
Su Keke didn't have any opinion on this, her idea was to follow Xu Yi, and wherever Xu Yi went, she would go.
The audience can't control Xu Yi's thoughts.
So, he took Su Keke and set off in the direction of intuition.
Along the way, both men keep an eye on everything around them.
Xu Yi found some relatively large lumps of dried feces, but he was inexperienced and didn't know what kind of animal feces left behind.
However, since there are traces left by large animals, the probability of finding a water source is much higher.
After all, wild beasts also need water.
The two of them walked through the jungle, trying to find water.
But by noon, the two men still didn't see any sign of water.
"Coco, let's rest here, there are more stones here, and we can find out if there are any stones suitable for making tools. ”
At present, Xu Yi still has too few tools in his hand, so it is better to get more tools.
With the tools, survival becomes a little easier.
A stone axe is good for cutting trees, but a machete is better for chopping small bushes to open a path.
Xu Yi wanted to find out if there were any long strips of stone chips that could be used to polish stone machetes.
Of course, it is extremely difficult to find the right shape and hardness.
Unless, there is very good luck.
