Chapter 418: On the Eve of the Storm, Hook's Law!
Outside the house, the storm continued.
The bonfire in front of him was shaking.
In the darkness, it was extremely powerless against Lu Yu's emaciated face.
Less.
After being silent for a while, Lu Yu smiled and continued:
"Watching what happens is the only way I can deal with it right now. ”
"It sounds a little helpless, but it can't be helped, this is the wilderness, this is nature. ”
"Long before I started this live broadcast, I said that wilderness survival is not child's play. The potential dangers of this live broadcast are far more dangerous than you think. There are many things I need to face and solve in the whole process, weather, materials, survival, exploration, and building...... Mistakes in any one of these links can be life-threatening. ”
"You can never have a place here without experience and guts...... Even if you are the overlord of the entire earth, you will not be able to return to the sky......"
No doubt.
Among all the things in the world, human beings are outstanding beings.
And a real hegemon.
But in the face of nature, the glory of human civilization is a very small existence.
Humans, like other animals and plants, are a speck of dust in nature.
It's not worth mentioning at all.
It doesn't matter how advanced your technology is, how smart you are, how high you are among all living beings.
Many times, a small sneeze from the earth can wipe everything out of your way.
"That's right. ”
"Nature also has a temper, if we don't take care of the place where we live, no matter what you do, what method you use, you can't prevent a disaster that is enough to destroy civilization, no matter how rich you are, no matter how status, you can't escape the palm of nature, just like Sun Wukong can't escape the palm of the Buddha. ”
"If it wants to, it may not take a second for it to destroy everything you ever had. ”
"Nature is vast, it's all-encompassing, it's all-encompassing. ”
"But this guy also has a set of rules, and it uses its rules to govern everything in the world, which we may not see or touch, but it is real and governs everything in heaven and earth. People often say, 'There are gods in the head', and that's pretty much what it means. ”
Speaking of this, Lu Yu paused.
Then the conversation changed:
"However, while we are not strong enough to fight the energies of nature, we can do whatever it takes to move forward under the rules it has set. ”
"Man will conquer the sky, and faith is everything. ”
"In the face of disaster, we can't back down, because every second in adversity is the hope of turning the tables around......"
Storms are not powerful natural disasters.
After the storm has passed, it may not be long before everything will be calm.
For an ordinary person, it is not even so humble that it can affect your diet and daily life.
But for a challenger living in the wild, a powerful storm surge can dominate everything.
Lu Yu's worries are not groundless.
Because in his eyes, this disaster is almost tantamount to a special tsunami in civilized society......
......
The wind can't stop it.
The rain doesn't stop.
It took a whole day to scrape.
Soon, the time came to evening.
At this time, the storm that has been accumulated for a long time finally ushered in a continuous explosion!
In order for the tile house to survive this powerful storm.
Lu Yu no longer sat still.
Braving the wind and rain, I went out the door, collected all the wood that could be used in the storage room, and carried it to the house.
Prepare to pile the eight load-bearing beams in the house.
"If nothing else, strong winds will make landfall tonight. ”
"There are no spare shelters, so we have to do more here. ”
"Now, good news, bad news......"
After putting together the usable wood into a pile, Lu Yu untied all the bark ropes around his waist and continued:
"The good news is that my tiled house has withstood the test, and although it is on the verge of extinction, it has bought me a lot of time. It turns out that in the harsh wilderness, if you can have such a room, you can definitely protect yourself. ”
"As for the bad news......"
Pick up a stick and stand in front of you.
Lu Yu sharpened one end of it with a stone axe and said to the camera:
"If the wind continues to rise, the house won't last long. ”
"In addition, as the rainfall continues to increase, there is another hidden danger that needs to be paid attention to, and that is that flash floods can break out at any time......
"Actually, I took this into account when I chose the camp, and our camp is the highest place on the entire West Coast. If it is only a localized three-level flood peak, it will not pose much of a threat to us. But if it's a large-scale flood peak, you need to pay more attention. ”
The super precipitation will put huge pressure on the rivers on the island.
If the trough is not able to handle more runoff, flash floods will naturally overflow and erupt completely.
When the time comes, not to mention the entire West Bank.
Most of the interior of the island, with the exception of the Twin Mountains on the north shore, is likely to be submerged.
After nearly two months of investigation by Lu Yu, the frequency of flash floods in Olidia is very high.
Traces of flash floods from the last rainy season can be seen in many places.
For example, the river channel of the water source, the inner wall of the underground canal, and the soil and plant growth near the runoff, etc.
These details may seem like nothing.
But we really have to dig deeper.
The information revealed will definitely be a wake-up call for survivors.
It is precisely because of this that when choosing a camp earlier, Lu Yu would seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and built the camp in a relatively high open space on the west coast, far away from the water source and the seaside.
But the thing is, it's not a one-and-done approach.
A suitable camp can only avoid the proximity of danger to a certain extent.
If you really encounter an irresistible disaster, you can't rest on your laurels.
Soon.
After sharpening the eight wooden sticks in turn, Lu Yu inserted them into the ground next to the main beam and fixed them with ropes.
The reason for this is to share the weight of the main beam.
Reduce the force of the wind.
Even if it collapses, it will not be uprooted.
Followed by.
After fixing the main beam, Lu Yu selected some suitable wood and made some articles on the keel and roof.
The stress point of the keel is on the main beam.
In order to protect the roof, in addition to sharing the pressure on the main beam.
The best thing to do is to give it some reasonable support points.
"A reasonable support point allows stress to form a linear relationship with strain. ”
This relationship is actually what we know as Hooke's Law. Hooke's law is one of the basic laws of material mechanics and elasticity, and it is an elastic law that applies to all solid materials. This means that, within the limits of elasticity, the deformation of the object is proportional to the external force that causes the deformation. ”
"That's right, the deformation of an object is directly proportional to the external force that causes the deformation......"
