Chapter 704: Creative Mode (Subscription Requested)
So, Chen Xu pulled out the mountain opening knife, took the equipment, and went straight to the location where the body of the overlord python was discarded last night.
Fifty meters, it was quickly reached.
Fortunately, the carcass of the python with the black diamond pattern was still there, but some parts were obviously torn apart by some sharp object.
He walked over to the corpse and crouched down.
It can be seen that there are many traces of tearing on the snake corpse, and in some places it has even been gnawed to the point that there is no skin left, and a large amount of dark red flesh and blood is exposed to the air, and the smell is overwhelming.
"There were carnivores coming over last night, judging from the tearing holes, there should be more than one, it seems that my decision to throw it out was the right one!"
Chen Xu was glad that his "cautious and careful" once again saved him from unnecessary trouble.
Anyway, he was going to leave here today, and he didn't bother to check what kind of creature it was, so he directly used the mountain knife to cut a few python meat from the corpse, some of which were eaten now, and some of which were kept for backup.
The overlord python is a protected animal in the world, but the protection level is only vulnerable, as long as you get permission from the official, you can sell it.
Most developed countries use the overlord python as a pet or use it to make high-end leather goods.
However, when it comes to eating overlord python meat, very few people dare to try it.
"To be honest, the taste is similar to ordinary snake meat, and it's a little old, I don't know if it's because it was put overnight last night, in short, the taste is very average!"
More than 20 minutes later, Chen Xu finished roasting the snake meat, put it in his mouth, and tasted it.
After eating his food and replenishing his strength, he began to follow his usual route, waiting to find a new camp to set up.
After about two hours of work, around 11 p.m. in Indonesia, he was again in the swampy jungle near the lake.
I searched for more than ten minutes.
Chen Xu found three small palm trees, and between them, there was a clearing: "The location here is good, there is open space, the terrain is high, it will not be flooded by heavy rain, and there are no traces of wild beasts passing nearby, there are no large shrubs nearby, it is quite safe!"
After saying that, he personally walked to the three palm trees, bent them with his hands, and gathered them in the middle.
Sure enough, it became an irregular triangular pyramid.
"See, if we get the vines and tie them together, we can make a very strong triangular vertebrae shelter!"
The audience must admit that Xu Ye's hand did play the four words "local materials" perfectly.
Fortunately, Chen Xu's battle with the Overlord Python yesterday did not hurt his bones, and the flesh wound hurt again, and after a night's rest, he almost recovered, and it almost did not affect his current strength.
So, throughout noon, he spent the whole day gathering supplies around and building shelters.
Since there was no way to lay a wooden bed in the triangular shelter, Chen Xu used vines to weave a bed net along the triangular platform, and then spread a thick layer of dried ferns and dead leaves on top of it, and a soft bed was completed.
As for the rain shelter, it took him a lot of effort.
Because the tip of the triangular vertebra was always smaller than the base at the bottom, he had to extend the roof all the way to the bed to protect him from the rain.
Therefore, Chen Xu simply cut down more than N sticks of equal length, and then put them on the three planes of the triangular vertebra in turn, and finally tied them with vines.
"The method I'm building now is somewhat similar to an American-style campsite, except that the shape of the American-style campsite is a cone, and the shape we're building now is a triangular pyramid. ”
"The advantage of a pyramid shelter is that it is stronger than the cube, and it is better shaded from the rain, which gives the host a stronger sense of security!"
While talking, Chen Xu demonstrated the construction method to everyone.
"Xu Ye has changed from survival mode to creative mode!"
"I like to watch Xu Ye build a house, it feels so exquisite!"
"Actually, if there weren't so many wild animals in Borneo, it would be interesting to build a house here and fish and hunt every day!"
"How do you feel that this house built by Xu Ye looks like a big green hat!"
"What cuckold? Forget it, I'm going to do my hair!"
It took about half an hour for Chen Xu to finally build the entire shelter.
It is about two meters high, in the shape of a triangular pyramid, with boards made of sticks on three sides, and a narrow opening in the direction of the lake, which is a triangular bed.
It can be said that the building in front of him is one of the strongest and most secure shelters among all the houses he has built.
Subsequently, Chen Xu used the remaining waste materials to create a fire next to it.
Because the triangular pyramid shelter is protective, but the air circulation is poor, the fire cannot be moved into the shelter.
But it was the rainy season in Borneo, and if he wanted to keep the fire unextinguished, he had to make a "shelter" for the fire.
The shelter for the fire is simple, as long as it can keep out the rain.
Therefore, Chen Xu built a mini-shaped shack according to the style of the previous shelter, which can not only keep out the rain, but also act as a grill.
Because he was afraid that the rain on the ground would affect the fire, he built a stone circle with stones around the fire, which could play a certain role in fixing and protecting.
When the drainage ditch was finally dug up, it was already half past 12 noon.
Chen Xu sat in front of the shelter, took out the Overlord python meat that had been left for backup in the morning, and put it on the grill.
While eating snake meat, he was still thinking about the afternoon hunt at the lake, "Because we have moved this time, the raft can be used many times, so we have to find a way to make a stronger one." ”
"In this way, not only does it save time in building the raft every day, but most importantly, it increases safety. ”
However, a sturdy raft is not easy to build.
It's not just about technology, it's about finding the right wood.
Chen Xu wanted to find a bamboo forest and use bamboo to make a double-decker bamboo raft, which was at least much stronger than cork.
But after a big turn, not to mention the bamboo forest, there is not even a single palm bamboo.
And just when he was about to give up, suddenly, a huge tree collapsed on the ground in front of him, which suddenly attracted his attention.
It was a broken wood that looked quite huge, about the same thickness as Chen Xu's own body, at least four or five meters long, covered with moss, and from the fractured surfaces on both sides, it seemed to be very strong.
Under the incomprehensible gaze of the audience, he took out the mountain knife and slashed at the surface of the bark.
But because it wasn't cork, the knife didn't cut very deep.
Chen Xu slashed twenty or thirty times in a row, and finally, only heard a "click", but what he didn't expect was that the tip of the next knife was directly pierced into the trunk of the tree!
