219. Wood in the water

Another night passed quietly, and it was a very difficult night for many players.

The flash flood on the island was a devastating disaster, with at least three groups of contestants having their shelters destroyed by the flood.

One of the amateurs not only lost their camp in the disaster, but was also overturned by the flood and suffered multiple fractures in their bodies.

After receiving their distress signal, the program team immediately sent a lifeboat to their location to find them and rescued them from the island.

Of course, this also means that this group of players has withdrawn from the competition for survival in the wilderness.

This is also a helpless thing.

Compared with the champion's 20 million, of course, the safety of one's own life is more important.

Among the remaining players, there are also many groups of players whose fate is very tragic, including Leatila and Clark, who mistakenly chose to live in Chen Zhe's camp and were finally flooded.

At this time, Chen Zhe's camp had been completely soaked by the flood and merged with the river in the distance, and this originally flat land had now become a vast ocean.

After yesterday's floods, there was not a single dry land around that could be settled, and the rain never stopped, so Clark and Liatila could not afford to walk in the rain.

Clark was overturned in the water, and his clothes were already soaked, and in such a situation, the best thing for the two of them was to find a place to adjust and dry the clothes on their bodies to prevent the temperature from dropping.

Fortunately, they were able to find such a place, and that was the watchtower built by Chen Zhe.

The sturdy watchtower survived the flood and is standing, and the high platform above the watchtower became their best choice to escape the flood.

Clark hurriedly climbed the watchtower with Liatilla, and survived on the tower all night, waiting for the rain to clear today, and the flood receded slightly, and then climbed down and waded away, and went to the mountains to find a place that was not flooded and rebuild shelter.

However, when the next day came, they found an embarrassing thing - the flood on the island did not recede as easily as they thought, and the area around Chen Zhe's camp was still flooded.

Lyatira, who had just woken up, opened a pair of beautiful eyes, and at the same time she felt a pain all over her body.

After all, the space on the watchtower is very narrow, in addition to his partner Clark, there is also a cameraman in charge of the camera, and the three of them are crowded on such a watchtower, and it is a miracle that the watchtower did not collapse, which can only show that Chen Zhe's architectural skills are really strong......

Because of the limited space, of course, Liatila couldn't stretch too much when she slept, and she curled up in a corner, inevitably sleeping uncomfortably.

Glancing back at her partner, Mr. Clark, Liatila asked, "Clark, has the flood receded?

In fact, she was naΓ―ve enough to hope that the flood that had hit the camp would recede overnight, and that Chen Zhe's camp would dry up again, so that she could still live in Chen Zhe's cabin as long as the clay wall was rebuilt and the lost wooden door was recovered.

It's a pity that the ideal is very plump, but the reality is very skinny.

Clark shook his head with a bitter face, pointed to the bottom and said, "See for yourself." ”

Liatila sat up and looked down, her face instantly turning pale.

I saw that the water level below the camp was still high, and the flood water had no intention of receding.

"What's the matter? Why hasn't the water level dropped at all? Doesn't the water seep into the ground? Doesn't it evaporate?" asked Liatira in despair.

"It's the rainy season, and the land on the island is already full of water, and it's basically saturated, so of course the water won't seep down. ”

Clark smiled bitterly,

"As for evaporation...... Yesterday and today were cloudy, there was no sun, and trying to evaporate these floods? It's not that simple. ”

"What then? Chen Zhe's camp is in ruins, and we can't live here anymore?" asked Liatila, disappointed.

"Of course. Clarke's answer was simple and direct.

"And where are we going to stay next?" asked Liatila.

Clark pointed to the mountain in the distance and said, "Go to the mountain, now the flood disaster is so serious, only there is no water on the mountain, we will go down from the watchtower in a while, wade through the water and go up the mountain......"

Although he was very reluctant to admit it, Clark had to make such a decision, because going up the mountain was the only option, and Chen Zhe's judgment a week ago was completely correct.

Compared to Chen Zhe, his decision to come down from the mountain was a completely wrong choice, and compared to the flash flood, the beasts on the mountain were not difficult at all.

And when she heard that she was going back to the mountains now, or wading through knee-high floodwaters, Liatilla was about to collapse.

She couldn't help but complain: "I knew we were going to go up the mountain, so why did we come down in the first place? Tossing and turning, didn't we go back to the old place? Clark, what the hell is going on with you? Aren't you a special soldier? Why do you always make low-level mistakes!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Clark responded with silence, not arguing about anything.

The environment for living in the wild is like this, it can be said that it changes rapidly, and the occurrence of natural disasters is also elusive and difficult to predict.

Of course, he admits that Chen Zhe did accurately predict the occurrence of natural disasters, but Chen Zhe is a rare figure after all.

Most people can't guarantee that they won't make mistakes, and neither can he Clarke.

He just listened quietly to Liatila's complaints, then pointed to the bottom of the watchtower, and said, "Miss Liatila, while the weather is still good, we should go."

Although Chen Zhe's watchtower is of good quality, after being soaked in water for so long, I am afraid that it will break and collapse. ”

"Okay......"

Liatila vented her temper for a while, but still reluctantly chose to act.

Although she was very angry and depressed, she still kept her sanity after all, she knew that it was not a way to be petty now, and she still had to solve the problem in a down-to-earth manner.

"Let's go. ”

She nodded lightly and followed Clark down the watchtower.

But when Clark climbed to the bottom of the watchtower, he stopped abruptly without warning.

Clarke's abrupt stop caught Liatila off guard, and she nearly missed the brakes and stepped on Clark's shoulder.

"Mr. Clark, what's the matter with you?"

Liatila asked with some dissatisfaction,

"Why are you still playing with hard braking?"

Clark looked at a puddle of water not far away with a solemn expression, and whispered, "Miss Liatila, things are a little wrong......

"Of course things are not good......," said Liatila, despairingly, "our temporary shelter was washed away by the flood, and we were trapped on a watchtower and slept all night, and now we have to wade into the mountains...... Of course this kind of thing is not good!"

"No, Miss Liatilla. "I don't mean the flood, but another trouble, and we have another problem." ”

"Other troubles?"

Hearing this, Liatila was on the verge of collapse.

In addition to being baptized by the Great Flood, what are the other troubles?

Can life get harder?

She looked down at the puddle not far away, and said depressedly, "What's the trouble again?"

Clark pointed to a floating "log" in the puddle and said, "Look there." ”

"Huh?" Lyatira squinted and saw that it was just a dry, wrinkled, slightly greenish, floating piece of wood.

It was a little hard for her to understand.

It's just a piece of broken wood, what's the trouble?

Could it be that this wood is highly toxic, and the toxin has seeped into the floodwater?

"Mr. Clark, isn't that just driftwood, what?" asked Liatila.

Mr. Clark smiled wryly, then plunged his foot into the flood and stirred it slightly.

As the flood fluctuated, a circle of ripples gradually spread out, and sensing that there were ripples here, the "wood" in the distance suddenly moved.

This strange picture frightened Lia Tila's face so bad that she almost didn't scream!

I saw that the dry and wrinkled, green "wood" actually floated in the direction of the watchtower along the ripples stirred up by Clark!

"It's ...... What the hell is this?" asked Liatira nervously.

Without waiting for Clark to answer, she got the answer herself.

I saw that the piece of wood floated up a little more, and then a pair of small eyes flashed at the front of the wood.

It wasn't wood at all, it was a crocodile.

A crocodile lurking in the water, waiting to catch its prey.

Thanks to Mr. Clarke's timely discovery of the predator lurking in the flood, the consequences would have been dire.

This behemoth is extremely aggressive in the water, its huge tail and its bloody mouth are full of amazing power, and if Clark had rushed into the flood, he would probably have been overturned by the crocodile by now, and would have become the crocodile's breakfast.

Seeing this hideous and terrifying creature, Liatila was scared into a white sweat.

"Actually, there's a crocodile...... "what are we going to do?" she said in a trembling voice.

"It looks like this. Clark said helplessly.

As he spoke, he looked around and noticed that there were three crocodiles nearby.

Of course, this is only the number he can see so far, and he believes that these three crocodiles are not all at the moment, and perhaps there are other crocodiles lurking in the depths of the flood.

In short, the flood brought not only the irreversible flood, but also the dangerous water predators in the nearby river, and now that he and Liatilla are in an increasingly dangerous situation, it is likely that they will not be able to leave Chen Zhe's watchtower.

……

Meanwhile.

In the live broadcast room of Wilderness Survival.

Of course, the director did not miss such a powerful picture, and he did not hesitate to give the camera to Liatilla's group and the crocodiles in the flood.

At first, netizens also thought that the flood was soaked in some dead wood, or broken tree trunks or the like, but as Clark stirred the water, netizens immediately discovered the true body of these "dead wood".

They are crocodiles, ferocious crocodiles.

A predator at the top of the food chain on a tropical island.

Seeing these vicious-looking monsters in the flood, the host He Chen also felt creepy.

He gently rolled up his sleeves and said to several commentators: "This crocodile is so horrible that you see, I have goosebumps......

Several commentators nodded their heads, all agreeing with He Chen's opinion.

One of them said: "Crocodiles are the overlords of the water, they are very strong and their skin is very hard, if they are in the water, humans are no match for crocodiles. ”

Another commentator was quick to add: "Not to mention in the water, even on land, humans have little advantage in fighting crocodiles, after all, crocodiles are very muscular." ”

"I don't think anyone wants to fight a crocodile, it's terrifying. ”

He Chen said,

"Leatila and Mr. Clark were really unlucky, and they woke up and ran into crocodiles...... But may I ask you, teachers, what are the types of crocodiles in the camera?"

"They're supposed to be spectacle crocodiles, aka caimans. ”

One of the commentators, wildlife expert Ms. Song, immediately replied,

"This is a kind of alligator, which is not particularly large among crocodiles, generally they are between 1.8 and 2.2 meters long, and slightly larger ones can grow to about 2.5 meters. ”

"What?" He Chen was horrified when he heard this, "Isn't a crocodile more than two meters long still very big?"

"Of course not. Ms. Song said with a smile, "This size can only be regarded as a medium-sized crocodile, or even a small and medium-sized crocodile...... Large crocodiles are basically more than 4 meters in size, while the largest crocodile in the world, the bay crocodile, is more than 7 meters in size. ”

"7 meters ......" He Chen gasped when he heard this, "That's really a big monster." So, Leatila and Clark were lucky, not the biggest bay crocodile, but only the small and medium-sized caiman?"

"From that point of view, so to speak. ”

Ms. Song said,

"It's always better to meet a caiman than a bay crocodile. But for the two of them, Liatila and Clark, these caimans were enough of a headache. ”

"yes. Another commentator said with a wry smile, "Whether it is a large crocodile that is 7 meters long or a small and medium-sized crocodile that is 2 meters long, it has more strength than a human."

Leatila has little fighting power, and Mr. Clark alone can't be a match for so many crocodiles. ”

"Yes. ”

Ms. Song nodded,

"It looks like their group is trapped on a watchtower by crocodiles, which are very patient creatures that can often lurk in the same waters for days waiting for their prey, without eating or drinking......

That said, unless Leatila and Clark hold out here for a few days, it is simply impossible to get rid of the caiman's entanglement......"
