Chapter 938: Yellow rubber shoes, seven-point pants
"Damn, is it durian?"
"Durian is not so small, this one looks like two fists big!"
"Like the balls of a tree. ”
"Monkey stealing peaches?"
"It feels a little disgusting, it reminds me of the lump of camel vomit that Xu Ye drank in the Devil City desert before......"
"The one in Devil City is exposed, and at first glance, it is an old fan of Xu Ye!"
……
Chen Xu showed this black thing under the camera, patted the dust on it, and explained excitedly: "This is not a durian, but the fruit of the ivory palm tree, which the locals call Korocha." ”
"The ivory palm is a tropical plant that lives in Peru and Colombia, which is humid and tolerant of high temperatures, and is also distributed in small quantities in the subtropics. ”
"Unlike ordinary palm trees, they can only grow to a maximum of more than a meter tall, resembling shrubs, without a trunk, which is the best characteristic to distinguish them, and when you later in the tropics and subtropics, you see a very short tree, with palm leaves, and no trunk, mostly ivory palms. ”
"And their fruit is also very interesting, it is edible......"
With that, he immediately raised the battle axe in his hand and cut open the entire korocha fruit like a coconut, revealing a translucent liquid mucus inside.
"You see that this liquid is not there, now it is flowing, but when it dries and solidifies, it becomes a very hard white solid, like ivory, which is why it is called the ivory palm. ”
"The local Native Americans will use these things to make carvings, and some unscrupulous traders will also use it to pass off fake ivory products!"
"Actually, this thing contains a lot of carbohydrates, we all know that carbohydrates are equal to saccharification, in the wild, sugar represents energy, before you can't eat meat, this is a good life-sustaining substitute!"
When he said the last sentence, Chen Xu's eyes glowed green, and he seemed to be unable to hold back any longer, so he gnawed on it one bite at a time, and his mouth kept making "sizzling" and "sizzling" sounds.
On the barrage display screen of the drone, various ridiculous texts kept flashing:
"666, Xu Ye has finally eaten!"
"It looks delicious!"
"The legendary rubber fruit, if you eat it, you will turn into ivory!"
"I'm curious, won't this thing get hard when you eat it?"
After a few barrages flying across the screen, Chen Xu had already finished gnawing half of the Keluo Cha Fruit, and then licked his lips and said: "To be honest, this thing is not as unpalatable as I imagined, it is a little like a coconut, but its taste is very sticky, like eating glue......"
"It's ...... again"
"Asahi analogy!"
"2333, compared to what Xu Ye has eaten before, this thing is delicious, right?"
"I'm hungry and want to eat!"
The audience did not miss any opportunity to "scare" Xu Ye.
Five minutes later.
Chen Xu ate three korocha fruits in a row, and only after feeling a hint of fullness in his stomach did he breathe a sigh of relief.
"I'm finally comfortable! We'll take the rest with us, and if we can't find any other food today, we'll have to eat this with Lena!"
With that, he plucked all the fruit from the tree, stuffed it into his backpack, and continued on his journey.
There's something in this belly, and it's really different.
Although it takes a certain amount of time for glycogen to be converted into energy, Chen Xu's current pace is obviously much stronger than before.
The further you go up the mountain, the steeper the slope of the mountain road becomes, and at the steepest point, it has even reached sixty or seventy degrees.
Coupled with the rain, the ground is muddy and slippery often occurs.
No way.
Chen Xu had no choice but to chop a thick stick with an axe, sharpen the end of his head, and use it as a trekking pole, which made it easier to walk.
And at this moment, a huge ravine suddenly appeared in front of him.
Inside the ravine, broken tree trunks were piled up everywhere, as well as a large number of branches with leaves.
"Looks like there was a mudslide here!"
Chen Xu frowned, "It seems that the heavy rain in the past few days has accumulated too much precipitation, and a large amount of stagnant water has swept thousands of tons of mud and rocks and trees, which is enough to wash everything." ”
"What I didn't expect was that I had already ducked so high, and I chose to be near the ridge, and I could still encounter mudslide traces. ”
"It seems that there will never be a 100% safe place in the wild......"
The mudslide in front of him washed away and gave him a wake-up call.
"This gully has just been washed through by a mudslide, it's slippery, I can look around from the side!"
With one last glance, Chen Xu bypassed this position.
But despite the change of route, the hillside is still not easy to climb.
With each big step, he would slide down a small half step, and this was still with the blessing of a tomahawk and a stick.
The yellow-brown muddy water had already stained his straw sandals, and even his face had turned into a smear of ash.
"Actually, Xu Ye doesn't have much physical strength, so why bother to climb up?"
"How can you find food if you don't climb up, this is the mountain, you think it's your home avenue, it's really a keyboard survival ......"
"Xu Ye may need a pair of shoes for the elderly!"
"Say, how much advertising money will be given to you by Zulijian, and my coconut army will be doubled!"
"Yellow rubber shoes, cropped pants, professional mage Xu Haizhu!"
"Whoa...... Whew......"
Chen Xu sighed as he climbed, looked at the barrage and said: "Climbing this kind of mud slope, in addition to shoes, is actually more of a test of the strength of your calves." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he used the gastrocnemius muscles in his calves and the tips of his toes to dig a mud puddle into the ground, and then used his strength to move upwards.
That's it.
After a whirring and wheezing climb, after fifteen minutes, he finally reached the top of the slope.
"Whew...... Whew......"
Chen Xu sat on the ground with his buttocks, directly picked up the stagnant water in the mud puddle, and slapped it on his face, "Cool!"
"Isn't it dirty?"
"666, it's all at this time, what's the matter?"
"Upstairs little mouth smeared honey ......"
"Hahaha, Xu Ye is using pure natural mud to wash his face, and it is more skinny!"
"Nivea Men's Cleanser, diatom mud strong oil control and acne formula, give you a different refreshing feeling!"
Chen Xu looked at these barrages and couldn't hold back his laughter.
And just as he was grinning, there was a sudden crisp sound of "click" in the mountains and forests above him.
Brush!
His super-fast reflexes made him pick up his tomahawk at once, squint his eyes, put on guard, and protect his chest.
"Do you hear me, there's movement in the forest in front of me on the right!"
Chen Xu stuck to the drone and whispered.
"I don't know what kind of creature it is, but I did hear it, and those who are still out to forage in this weather must be hungry, and we may have a chance......"
