Chapter 675: This Doesn't Taste Right (Ask for Subscription)

Despite this, Chen Xu's core body temperature is still dropping.

The posture detector on the system panel shows low lower limb temperature, moderate hunger, and exhaustion.

But he couldn't help it, it was raining so hard, unless he burned his backpack and clothes, or he wouldn't be able to make a fire at all.

As for the food, there is still a bunch of banyan fruit left, but this thing, the carbohydrate content is relatively large, but the calories are completely zero, far less than the cold-proof effect of fat, it is better to save it for wounds to reduce swelling and pus.

As the torrential rains continued, so did the shelter.

For example, the loosening of some fixed points, as well as the leakage of the roof of the roof, this is actually very normal, even modern bungalows are broken and leaking, not to mention a temporary shelter, and in the face of such a heavy rainstorm.

Therefore, Chen Xu was ready to wait for the rain to stop and then strengthen it, otherwise, he was afraid that this hastily built shelter would be difficult to survive the next rainstorm.

More than two hours passed.

It wasn't until around 4 p.m. in Indonesia that the rain finally subsided, and then the weather began to clear up.

After the rain stopped, Chen Xu walked out of the shelter.

At this time, Borneo was like being soaked in water, and the leaves of all the plants around it, even the dead leaves of the earth, were hung with water droplets, and when he stepped on the ground, he would make a "click" and "click" sound.

However, perhaps it is precisely because of the ability of the torrential rain to wash away the hot and humid mist of the nearby jungle temporarily, and the sight of the eye has obviously become much clearer, and even the air is much fresher.

He then retrieved his pants and put them back on.

Two hours, as a quick-drying fabric, outdoor trousers are enough to dry.

"The ground is so wet, it's hard to make a fire for the time being, wait, the rainforest soil is very absorbent, and it is estimated that it will take less than an hour for this rainstorm to be absorbed by the entire jungle. ”

"And before we can do that, we have to find a way to solve two problems: continue to fortify the shelter, and find food!"

When he said this, Chen Xu had already begun to observe the surrounding jungle environment, "The rainstorm has just passed, and most creatures are estimated to be hiding at home and dare not come out, at this time, it is difficult to find food in the jungle, and it is a waste of time." ”

"But if you watch my previous live broadcasts, you should know that I once said that when it rains, other creatures will hide from the rain, but there is one creature that will become extremely active. ”

Many viewers immediately thought of it: fish!

"Someone is right, it's fish. ”

Chen Xu glanced at his watch, "It's 4:25 p.m. Indonesian time, and it is estimated that there are less than two hours left until it gets dark." ”

"That's enough time to fortify the shelter, but if we don't fish, we'll probably go hungry tonight, so I'm going to do both!"

At the same time, how can this be done, could it be that Xu Ye will be able to do the doppelganger technique?

However, there are also many people who think about it, react and use traps!

"It seems that everyone already has a good survival mentality. ”

Chen Xu nodded with a smile and continued: "That's right, we can use traps, now is the time when the river is surging and the fish are active, and the success rate of using traps is much higher than usual." ”

With that, he took out the thorn he had cut in the jungle from his backpack.

Then, he found a vine the thickness of a little finger and very long nearby.

"The trap I made was actually very simple, not even a trap, just an unmanned fishing method, which was to use a fishing line with a lot of hooks with bait on it, one end tied to a tree by the river, and the other end tied to a stone, and sink into the water. ”

"In this way, the entire line with many bait hooks is fixed under the water, and the fish will be hooked as soon as they pass by, and there is a greater chance of multiple hooks, but this method is only suitable for use in places with a high flow of fish. ”

"And our current situation is exactly the same, we use vines instead of fishing lines, fishing hooks can be used as thorns, and as for bait, we can use ant nests in backpacks instead. ”

"One of the favorite foods for omnivorous fish in the wild is ants!"

Subsequently, Chen Xu personally demonstrated the low-profile version of unmanned fishing to everyone according to the method he said.

In order to firmly anchor the thorns to the vine, he did not wrap them directly with the vine itself, but pierced the thorns into the vine and finally wrapped them repeatedly with the bark, which was more stable than the former.

The ant's nest is easy to do.

Although the army of red fire ants has run away, there are always one or two "fish that have slipped through the net" in the ant nest of Nuoda.

So, Chen Xu cut off a little ant nest with a knife, and then pressed the red fire ants to death on it, so that the smell of the ant nest itself, coupled with the smell of the red fire ant corpse, is enough to attract those fish.

In less than 20 minutes, he made an "unmanned fishing line" about seven meters long with five thorny hooks hanging from it.

Then, he came to the river.

Due to the heavy rainfall, the flow of the river has increased dramatically, and the width of the river, which was originally about 20 meters, has now spread to at least 5 or 6 meters on both sides, and the depth and speed of the water have also increased a lot.

Chen Xu finished installing the "unmanned fishing line" and glanced at the river, "I hope this trap of mine can be effective." ”

At the current level of water downstream, there will not be any large fish, as long as it is not those ferocious carnivorous fish with developed teeth, and the average fish will keep making such thick vines.

The only thing to worry about is whether the thorns are stable.

I also know that once the fish is hooked and pierced by thorns, it will definitely resist wildly.

After returning to the camp, Chen Xu began to prepare for the reinforcement of the shelter.

In fact, the method of reinforcement is also very simple, it is nothing more than adding more base columns, tying more vines, and stacking more leaves.

For this reason, Chen Xu could only go to the jungle again to cut some small tree trunks.

Because the palm trees in the previous position had been cut down almost completely, this time he changed directions.

However, just as he walked a few dozen meters in the new direction.

Suddenly, a foul smell crept into his nose.

"Why does it smell bad?"

Chen Xu frowned slightly.

Listen to the live broadcast room:

"2333, it can't be some creature pooping everywhere, right?"

"Why can stink so far away?"

"It can't be the carrion of the missing person, right? Didn't Xu Ye say that in the rainforest, the corpse decomposes very quickly?"

Chen Xu covered his mouth and nose as he walked, and said suspiciously: "This stink is wrong!"
