Chapter 8 Building a Shelter

You can catch birds yourself!

Su Yimu suddenly thought.

However, catching a bird is not as easy as you think, you need tools, preferably a bow and arrow.

But in the current situation, it is clear that there is not enough time and energy to make a good bow and arrow.

And even if he had time, he wasn't sure he would be able to make a good bow and arrow the first time.

In this way, there is no need to think about bird hunting.

"So what's next?"

Su Yimu began to be confused and began to panic.

Do you want to eat bugs?

Bugs are a species that can be found everywhere on desert islands, and bugs are rich in protein.

If you can't find a food source, you can only look for high-protein bugs as a food source.

Just as I was thinking about it, I don't know if it was an auditory hallucination or something, when there was a 'whoosh', and there was a paddling sound from the side, as if something had fallen into the water.

Left!

Su Yimu walked to the left, and after walking for long, he found a lake.

"Freshwater!"

Su Yimu was ecstatic in his heart, this lake is very large, the lake is about twenty meters wide, and a large amount of fresh water is stored in it!

And around the lake, there are a lot of wild fruits.

There are the same white fruits that I have eaten before, and there are yellow and red fruits.

He hurriedly stepped forward and used the system to test them one by one, and found that except for the yellow wild fruit, which was poisonous, the other fruits were not poisonous.

Excluding the yellow fruit, he made a rough estimate and saved it up, and it should last for a week.

He resisted the excitement in his heart and began to walk around the lake, which took a total of ten minutes.

The vegetation around the lake is rising well and is relatively vigorous.

Luckily, he also spotted a wild pepper tree next to the lake.

"This is a gift from heaven. Su Yimu couldn't help but laugh.

Wild pepper can warm and relieve pain, kill insects and relieve itching, and can treat spleen and stomach deficiency and cold, cold pain in the abdomen, vomiting, diarrhea, roundworm abdominal pain, eczema, skin itching, itching, and caries pain.

Now, you don't have to worry about eczema.

Poof!

A fish jumps out of the water and falls into the lake.

"And the fish!"

Su Yimu suddenly discovered that there were wild fish in the lake!

He carefully observed the lake and found that there were many wild fish in the lake, and the number of leaders was not small!

"The sound that just drew me in was the sound of a fish jumping out of the water. Su Yimu muttered to himself.

"I decided, build a shelter here. "Su Yimu is a person who loves fish, when he was at the beach, he couldn't catch fish even if he learned to swim, because it was difficult to catch fish under the waves, and it was very laborious and dangerous to go deep into the seawater.

But in the lake, the water is calm.

Make a harpoon and walk around the lake and maybe you'll catch the fish.

"Leave the wild fish alone for now, though I'd love to have a sip of hot fish soup today. Su Yimu looked around.

"But it's just raining, and it's hard to find some hay and firewood to start a fire. What's more, I don't have a pot to cook fish soup, although I still have some coconut shells here, but the coconut shells are too small, not to mention whether it is suitable for fish soup, I'm afraid I can't put a few fish at all. ”

He came to two large trees not far from the lake, which were close together, and he decided to find some resilient vines to weave a simple rattan net, which he tied between the two trees as a bed.

Just looking for trees and rattans to weave rattan nets took Su Yimu about an hour.

When the rattan net was finished, the third day was safe.

Congratulations to the host for spending the day safely and gaining 1 survival point. 】

It's starting to get dark.

Su Yimu hurriedly tied the woven rattan nets to the trees on both sides, forming a rattan net bed suspended in the air, similar to a swing.

The vines are tough and soft to lie on on the mesh bed woven by the vines.

"Next, find some thicker trees and build a shed on the rattan net. On the one hand, it can provide shade from the sun, and on the other hand, it can shelter from wind and rain. ”

Su Yimu took a stone knife and found a small tree around it, cut it down, and then cut it into four pieces.

Then he found a branch and carved four corners around the net bed woven by the vines, and fastened the four pieces of sticks to the four corners.

"If you simply use wooden sticks to build a shelter, it can easily be damaged. Because it is not solid, the foundation is unstable. So I chose to use these two big trees as the foundation, the trunk. ”

In order to better fix, he cut down a few more trees, and used the stability of the triangle to tie the bracket and the two large trees together with vines.

Halfway through the bracket, it was already dark.

"If only I had a machete, I would have saved a lot of work. ”

Because the night was dark and he couldn't see the surrounding environment clearly, Su Yimu had to stop what he was doing, wash his hands and face by the lake, and then lay down on the rattan net.

"Although the shelter shed was not done, it was fortunate that the tree and rattan nets were done. Lying on the rattan net, Su Yimu thought so.

At the same time, we are also planning for tomorrow's work.

"Set up the shed first, this will probably be my shelter for the next twenty-seven days. ”

"Then it's a bow and arrow, and although there are plenty of wild fruits by the lake, which can sustain me for a week, for now, food resources are still tight. ”

"To make a bow and arrow, you need to find good materials and be able to find a tough bowstring, which is more difficult......"

Syllable!

"Mosquitoes in the wild are really ......"

Su Yimu took out some cordycapellants from the space backpack and spread them all over his side.

"It would be nice to be able to make some mosquito coils. ”

"By the way, I'm going back to the beach to make some sea salt......"

Thinking about it, Su Yimu fell asleep.

......

Early the next morning.

Su Yimu brushed his teeth with charcoal, then opened the last coconut and ate it.

Instead of continuing to build the shed, he planned to search for some dry wood and light a bonfire.

In the wild, a campfire is essential.

However, there is not much dry firewood around, and it is difficult to drill wood for fire.

Fortunately, there is some resin on the surrounding trees, and this thing can easily ignite.

......

Finally lit a bonfire, Su Yimu then began to build the shed, it took a day, when he was hungry, he picked some fruits to eat, and when he was hungry, he drank some lake water, and it was not until the evening that the shed was built.

The sky gradually darkened, and with a prompt sound from the system, he knew that the fourth day had also passed.

As he lay on the rattan netting bed, he looked at the shed above his head, and felt a sense of pride and accomplishment in his heart, which he had spent a day building as a shelter.

"It's been four days, and there's still twenty-six days. ”

Su Yimu said with a smile, feeling that there was a bright spot in front of him.

Isn't 30 days very difficult?

At least for now, I have not been hit by difficulties, and everything is going in a good direction.

I'll go to the beach tomorrow to get some salt......

Just thinking about it, Su Yimu heard a thin sound from the side.

Could it be the sea iguana?

In the night, he lay on the rattan net and looked sideways, accompanied by the firelight beside him, faintly, in the distance, it seemed to be a figure.

Su Yimu suddenly got up.
