Chapter 84: The Shed in the Wind and Rain
Back to the small stronghold, where a few scaffolds were put up and covered with some dead grass and branches.
"There are three things that are important for survival in the wild, fresh water, temperature, and food. ”
Sun Li set up the stone pot again and roasted the wild vegetables on it, "Fresh water is the most important thing for human beings, if the water is reduced by two percent, you will be thirsty, if you reduce the water by three percent, you will feel dizzy and headache if you are dehydrated by three percent, and if you don't drink water at all, you will die in about three days." ”
"Give. ”
"Thank you. ”
Jiang Mo took the roasted wild vegetables, grabbed them with his hand and blew them and stuffed them into his mouth.
While eating, Sun Li said: "In addition to food, but the problem of food can be relied on later in the face of temperature, people can live for a week just by drinking water, and I can challenge people with rich fat reserves to live for half a month by drinking water; ”
"I see. Jiang Mo recalled that he had died several times when he had gone to sleep, and he hadn't eaten any mess, so he found the reason, and he nodded: "Build a small base?"
"Well, build a shelter as soon as possible, although we rely on the fire for warmth, but the fire is not omnipotent, because ......"
"Tomorrow there will be rain. At this time, the two said together.
They looked at each other in amazement.
Jiang Mo knew that there was rain because he had experienced it once, while Sun Li knew the weather by looking at the clouds.
After eating, the two of them felt much more comfortable.
agreed to take turns to keep vigil, Sun Li slept first, and Jiang Mo was bored to add firewood.
The threat of the wolves was always on the side, and they did not dare to fall asleep at the same time, so they had to arrange for a man to keep vigil, and the fire must be filled with wood at all times so that it would not be extinguished, lest it be impossible to light the lens because of the rain on the second day.
Fire is not just about keeping warm and cooking, it's also their main weapon of self-defense against wolves.
End of the first day.
The next day, Jiang Mo felt that he had just fallen asleep and was pushed up by Sun Li.
"The weather is not good, build the shelter as soon as possible. She had worry on her face.
Glancing at the low dark clouds, Jiang Mo was completely sleepy and nodded.
The two of them went to drink the water that had existed before, and then it was going to rain, so they could not worry about the water for a while, and then went into the woods hungry.
Sun Li tried her best to climb the tree and break the branches, and used the tonnage of 200 catties to break some branches.
Jiang Mo collected some wide leaves suitable for roofing.
"Huh, sisal!"
A large piece of sisal surprised him, sisal is a good thing for weaving, can be used to weave a lot of things, his puppet control knowledge has a variety of skills in making dolls out of materials, weaving leaves is naturally not a problem.
Thundered.
Muffled thunder rang out.
"It's coming. ”
Jiang Mo looked up at the sky, and then the things in his hand, sisal leaves, vines, a leaf that could not be named, but the leaves were very broad.
Let's go back to the small stronghold together.
The two of them first dug a pit with wooden sticks, inserted a thicker branch into it and buried it, and then fixed it with a stone on the seat next to it, so as to lay a simple pillar.
At this time, the muffled thunder becomes more frequent, and heavy rain can fall at any time.
The two of them hurried to tie the roof part into a grid shape with branches and vines.
At this time, it was too late to weave the sisal leaves, so they could only be stacked on the roof according to the principle of tiles, and then pressed on the prepared stones to fix them.
A small shed was hastily erected and completed.
Tick.
Raindrops the size of beans fell.
"Quick, get the fire in first!"
"And firewood!"
The two of them did not stop for a moment, and rescued the firewood into the small shed, when the whole sky was dark, and it was raining heavily.
Thunder and rain poured down.
"It's dangerous. Jiang Mo breathed a sigh of relief.
"Collect fresh water. She put her water bottle outside to catch the rain.
Despite the small shed, the rain was still heavy, and as expected, the shed leaked everywhere, and they were also drenched in it.
In order not to extinguish the fire, they had to use their bodies to block the wind and rain, and even when the wind was strong, they had to hold on to the pillars of the small shed, so that it would not travel with the wind.
The dilapidated simple shed and the small flame are all the hope of the two under the storm.
……
The heavy rain continued until the evening.
The clouds cleared, the sky brightened, and the sea and sky were dyed with the glow of the setting sun.
Jiang Mo's inner feeling that he had been devastated by the torrential rain for several hours was released and relieved at this moment.
If he hadn't been an introvert, he would have cried out loud by now.
"Woo woo~~~" Sun Li cried.
"Don't cry. ”
"I can't help it, I'm actually very happy......"
"I want to cry when you cry. ”
Jiang Mo smiled bitterly, he didn't want to cry after dying countless times, and he wasn't afraid of being sick and dying in the wolf's belly, because he really had the intention of dying a few times and dying dozens of times to find a way to clear the customs.
But this feeling of starting from scratch, finally getting a little result, and then protecting it in the face of accidents, is really touching.
It's probably like you're not afraid of losing what you have, but when you have something of your own, you start to be afraid of losing.
"What's next. Jiang Mo asked.
"When I'm hungry, let's go to the beach to find something to eat, and I don't know if there are any surprises in the sea after the rain. ”
Sun Li quickly recovered her mood and looked at the sea with her eyes shining.
Relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the sea to eat the sea, can be regarded as the truest portrayal of them.
Surprises also came as promised.
Sun Li fell into the sea without saying a word, and after a string of bubbles, she was silent.
Not long after, Jiang Mo struggled to carry Sun Li back who had fallen into the sea.
"Jellyfish...... Jellyfish stung me. Sun Li had palpitations.
……
After the rain, the sea area was more chaotic than usual, and the two did not dare to go into the sea or enter the forest, so they could only be hungry for a day.
I only ate one meal today, and it was still a wild vegetable left over from yesterday. After doing so much physical work again, I was drenched in the rain not long ago and became a soup chicken, which can be said to be a miserable day.
"Ahh ”
At night, Jiang Mo was so hungry that he wanted to nibble on the firewood, and his stomach kept growling.
Sun Li, who was asleep on the side, was holding her arms and gnawing, and she didn't know what she dreamed about.
"It's so hard. Jiang Mo counted with his fingers, after tonight, it will be the third day.
I woke up Sun Li in the middle of the night to exchange vigils, and only after falling asleep did I feel that my hunger had been reduced.
……
"Jiang Mo, it's dawn. ”
Open your eyes.
It's another early morning facing an existential crisis.
Jiang Mo, who was shaken awake, rubbed his eyes and took a big sip of water first...... Perhaps thanks to the rains, a small stream of fresh water from the island to the outside of the island has appeared, which means that they do not have to save water for a while.
"What are you doing today. Jiang Mo asked, he didn't want to use his brain.
"In the morning, we will explore all the beaches and pick up everything we can use, such as oysters, shells, crabs, etc., which are our main food. Sun Li counted with her fingers: "After eating, go to the woods in the afternoon to replenish some firewood, now there are not many firewood reserves, by the way, make the small shed stronger." ”
Jiang Mo nodded weakly.
As if she could see that he was not in a good state of mind, she muttered for a moment: "If we have time, we can try to catch small animals, and then there will be meat to eat." ”
"Oh?!meat!" Jiang Mo perked up.
