Chapter 138: Finding a Creature (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Pacific Sea Time: Most of the morning. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Location: An uninhabited desert island in the Pacific Ocean.
Goal: Find water and supplies.
Available items: Coconut shells, harpoons, straw sandals, stone chisels.
This is Chen Xu's current state.
At this time, he was heading towards the wooded area of the island.
As soon as you enter the wooded area, away from the beach, it is noticeably more secluded, surrounded by huge trees, lush shrubs and wild grass.
Chen Xu walked for about half an hour, and suddenly saw a tall bamboo forest in front of him, "Oh my God, it's a small bamboo forest! It seems that we are very lucky, just like I said last time in the tropical rainforest, bamboo can make all kinds of tools, such as harpoons, bows and arrows, boats, and each section can also make a kettle." ”
"But I don't have many tools to cut it now, because the structure of bamboo is very special, and it is easy to chisel the whole section with a stone chisel, so make a note of its location for the time being, and wait until we get a stone axe back!"
He then continued walking.
And just when he didn't go far, a mark on the ground attracted him.
Chen Xu squatted down, the lens of the drone immediately retracted, he pointed to the mark on the ground and said: "Look at this mark, my experience tells me that this is definitely a mammal, it can be seen from the appearance, its size is not large, it is likely to be a hare, let's go over and take a look, maybe we can find fresh water around it!"
As the words fell, he immediately headed in the direction of the imprint paw prints.
Because of the straw sandals, he is not afraid of being punctured by stones or wild grass on the ground, and his movement speed is naturally much faster.
Twenty minutes later, he suddenly stopped, and immediately crouched behind the weeds.
"Look, look! it's really a hare!"
Chen Xu hurriedly said to the audience in a very small voice to the drone.
I saw that about 20 meters away, a black and brown fur hare was lying in front of the grass, leisurely eating the wild grass.
"Damn, are there really hares?"
"I don't understand, the island in the Pacific Ocean is so far from the land, how did this hare get here?"
"I'm also a little confused, could it be that someone brought it here?"
Chen Xu shook his head, "It's not that it came by itself, but there is a possibility that it was brought by someone, maybe dozens of hundreds of years ago, when those ocean-going fleets in Europe were exploring the world, they carried animals and materials to exchange, and as a result, when they stayed on this small island, they might leave something behind." ”
"Of course, the biggest possibility is that it originally existed, you know, in the continental drift hypothesis, our earth was originally a continent, so the animals on this small island are actually continental, but when they split, they were drifted here. ”
"As sea levels in the Pacific continue to rise, what was once a continent may end up submerging into an island. ”
"But none of that matters, it gives us a hint that this island has its own complete natural circulation system, in other words, it has the basic conditions for biological survival, otherwise, these rabbits would not have survived to this day. ”
"Hare like to live in mixed forests with water sources, and this time we really killed two birds with one stone, both found the water source and found the food, hehe, let me try the 'depth' of this rabbit!"
In the live broadcast room, the audience saw Xu Ye's treacherous look, and immediately mocked:
"666, Xu Ye actually wants to have a deep and shallow deal with the rabbit!"
"Alas, I didn't expect you to be such a Xu Ye!"
"Master Xu, you'd rather have a rabbit than me, hum!"
Chen Xu looked at the barrage, his face was full of black lines, and he didn't bother to explain to these dirty Bs.
Then, he slowly approached the hare, "The harpoon in my hand can be used as a spear throw, but the hit rate is low, if you can get close to the rabbit and then hit the hare, it will be perfect!"
And just as he was talking, the rabbit seemed to have discovered something, raised his head, his two long ears shook, and he suddenly saw Chen Xu.
Broken!
As soon as this thought came to his mind, the next second, the hare flicked his legs and fled directly into the grass.
Chen Xu had no choice but to throw the harpoon in his hand immediately, and it was already like this, so he could only gamble.
But it's a pity that the harpoon, after making a "beautiful" arc in the air, was inserted "precisely" on the grass.
"Whew...... Failing, the hare is so fast that as long as it can't catch it, it will quickly run away at a speed of 75 kilometers per hour. ”
He pulled out his harpoon and looked regretfully in the direction the hare left, "Moreover, I don't know if you have noticed it, this hare's agility is obviously much more powerful than the last time I encountered it in the Great Khing'an Mountains, this time I have just walked a distance of fifteen meters, and it has found me." ”
"And at this distance, the grass is wild and dense, and general close-range weapons, even if they are throwing weapons, are difficult to exert their effects, forget it, let's find a water source first, and then talk about the rest later, anyway, the island is so big, the rabbit can't run!"
With that, he began to search the vicinity.
After searching for a long time, he finally found a low-lying pool, the water in which was a little yellow, and there were some leaves on it.
Chen Xu immediately put a little bit of it in his hand, put it in front of his nose and smelled it, "I can't smell any smell, it's probably rainwater, but this water is not flowing, and I don't know if it's the source of the rabbit's water, I'm a little scared and don't dare to drink it." ”
After looking for a while, there was still no new discovery, so he had to say: "It seems that there is no water source nearby, and it is already noon, so I will go back first to fill my stomach and change the road in the afternoon." ”
Back at the campsite, eating a coconut again to replenish his water, Chen Xu began to pick up the harpoon and went to the beach.
"A coconut is not full, I need to add a little meat, it is not the range of fish during the day, but the visibility of the sea during the day is very good, and the sea off the coast is very shallow, if we are lucky, we may be able to find a lot of shrimp and shellfish resting on the ground on the bottom of the sea. ”
Saying that, Chen Xu took a harpoon, took a stone, and walked to the beach, "When diving, we can bring a stone down, which will make us dive faster and save a lot of effort." ”
"Humans are mammals that hold their breath underwater for the shortest time, and the average person who can swim can dive for about 2-3 minutes, and after intensive training, it can reach 4 minutes. ”
"This is because repeated deep breathing and diving can fully squeeze out the carbon dioxide and nitrogen in your lungs, so when we decide to go into the water to find food, we can practice a few times to increase the amount of oxygen in our lungs before going down. ”
