Text Text_Chapter 1408 Survival in the Wilderness
……
"Where the hell is this?"
"It's a big lake, why do you always feel that the wind is blowing and it's dry?"
In the afternoon, Yang Yunfan tried his best, moved his body, and found a drier place by the lake. At this time, the cold wind blowing by the lake at night was blowing, and he did not feel any moist breath, but became more and more thirsty.
This large lake is very strange, unlike other lakes with abundant water and grass, there are many rocks near this lake, and the climate is very dry.
Yang Yunfan was located in the northern part of the lake, and in the afternoon, he looked at the surrounding landscape, and there was almost an endless desert to the south. To the west is black volcanic rock, only to the east and south, with some green.
The lake is so eerie that it is surrounded by a few thorns and bushes that are very undemanding to grow.
Unlike the east side, where the plane exploded, there are forests and grasslands, which are lush and green, and it looks much better than here!
However, there are many birds along the river.
Yang Yunfan has seen the animal world and recognizes that some of these birds are flamingos, cormorants and kingfishers......
"Since there are some animals here, maybe the indigenous Africans will come back here to hunt. Thinking like this in his heart, Yang Yunfan waited patiently.
He had thought that if he was lucky, someone would pass by and take him away before it got dark.
However, he waited for most of the day, and now it was completely dark, and he didn't see a human figure, not even a ghost!
When he fell off the plane, Yang Yunfan's left hand and left foot suffered a comminuted fracture, and he initially estimated that he would not be able to walk in three months. Although there were no fractures in his right hand and right foot, they also suffered strains of varying severity, which made it difficult for him to move.
"It seems that there is really no one here!"
It was already hard to climb out of the lake and get to the shallows on the shore. If you want to leave this mountain and plateau, it is absolutely impossible for Yang Yunfan now.
On the other side of the mountain, the smoke from the explosion of the plane and the forest fire caused by the fuel leak are a clear mark. If someone passes by here and sees such a big fire, why should they come to see the situation and put out the fire by the way?
It's a pity that when all this happens in Africa, it seems to defy this normal logic. With such a big fire, it was about to burn half the sky, and no one came!
"If people don't come, don't say it, why didn't even a rabbit or something, a small animal come?" Yang Yunfan silently let go of a stone that he had been holding in his hand. He was going to use this stone to sneak up on an animal that came to drink water, beat it to death, and then eat its flesh.
However, after waiting for a long time, people did not come, and there were few animals!
However, in the lake, from time to time there are one or two huge fish monsters...... Take a closer look, Nima, isn't this a crocodile?
"In addition, the water here seems to have a strange smell, slippery and greasy, as if it is poisonous, and cannot be drunk directly...... Alas, I'm so unlucky!"
Licking his lips, Yang Yunfan was already extremely thirsty.
But when it fell just now, he already knew that there was something wrong with the lake.
The water has a slightly slippery and greasy feel, like soapy water.
Chances are, it's an alkaline lake!
Therefore, the lake is empty around it, and no plants grow.
Alkaline water, it is impossible to feed plants. Therefore, the environment by this lake, like saline-alkali land, is almost hairless.
"Where the hell am I?"
Yang Yunfan looked at the starry sky, and the stars in the sky twinkled and flashed, but it puzzled him.
There are no people, no critters, nothing here except the quietly flowing water of the lake, and the crocodiles that pop up from the water from time to time to make a splash and continue to swim.
Although Yang Yunfan has been to many places, such as Libya, South Africa, Egypt, Morocco...... However, he really didn't come to East Africa. It's a very deserted place, and you may not be able to clearly mark what this place is called on the map.
Fortunately, Yang Yunfan has a good memory and strong reasoning ability. Quiet nights also help him think.
"Judging by the terrain before the crash landing, I should be on the border between Ethiopia and Kenya, which is the famous roof of Africa. To the east is the Great Rift Valley, and I think there's a place called the Omo Valley, which is quite famous. I read it in a certain magazine. ”
"The Omo River is a very long river that flows south from Ethiopia, about 1,000 kilometers, and it eventually flows into ...... That's right, Lake Turkana!"
Yang Yunfan's mind suddenly followed electricity.
He remembered a lot of useful information at once!
This is a magazine he read a long time ago, and the title seems to be "Omo River, the Last Africa", which introduces some of the customs of African indigenous tribes, and also introduces some of the Omo River, which is important in East Africa.
At that time, Yang Yunfan didn't look very carefully, just flipped through it casually. He felt like he would never come to a place where birds don't in his life.
Who knows, the will of heaven is unpredictable.
Fortunately, his memory is as powerful as a computer, and he almost never forgets what he has seen!
By this time, he had gradually remembered the contents of the magazine.
But so what?
This is Lake Turkana!
In the middle of the lake, there are several small islands where tens of thousands of crocodiles live!
It's an extremely dangerous place, and even fierce African natives wouldn't come here if they have nothing to do.
"Alas......"
With a deep sigh, Yang Yunfan felt tired at the same time, the injury and tiredness also overwhelmed him, and he was a little sleepy. He chose a sharp stone from the side and held it in his hand as a weapon.
Then, he moved his body a little to make himself lie down more comfortably.
Slowly, he closed his eyes and began to rest.
……
The dark night, this difficult night, has finally passed.
In the early morning, the sun rose in the east, and a ray of sunlight sprinkled on Yang Yunfan's eyelids.
He slightly blocked the dazzling sunlight with his hand, then opened his eyes and looked east: "It's dawn, today is the most important day, I have to go get something to eat, and then find a way to go north! There is the upper reaches of the Omo River, the water and grass are abundant, and there should be some natives living there." ”
Last night, he didn't sleep all night, just closed his eyes and kept him resting.
Although he has lost his aura, his physical fitness is also countless times stronger than ordinary people, and in his former mercenary career, he has had seven days and seven nights without sleeping, only resting with his eyes closed.
At this time, although the situation was already very bad, it did not make Yang Yunfan lose confidence.
He already has a plan in mind!
"Hiss......"
However, when he stood up, he accidentally used a force on his left foot, and the pain that pierced his heart made the cold sweat on his forehead come out.
"It seems that my left foot is completely inexerted, and I have to find a branch to use as a crutch!" he frowned slightly, and looked up at a small bush not far away, trying to find a branch to walk in place of a cane. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to walk a few hundred meters in a day.
