Thief?

Are there thieves in the radioactive area?

Chen Xu nodded, "That's right, after the nuclear explosion, the government adopted a concealment policy in the early days, the people panicked, and in the process of retreating, there were many thieves who stole materials. ”

"Until now, there are still many illegal hunters cutting down trees in Pripyat, and every tree here has at least eight times the radiation of ordinary trees, as well as illegal fishing, illegal hunting of wild animals, according to statistics, poachers killed more than 100 Caspian wolves in a year from 03 to 04 alone, and even the Pip's horse that is about to become extinct. ”

"Since 14 years, Ukraine has had an armed conflict with Russia, although there is no large-scale war, but civilians and thugs have been active in the northeast, and Chernobyl, as the closest no-man's land, will naturally be targeted by people with intentions. ”

"So, when we find people in the wild, we have to look at them and call for help, which was the case in the Serengeti National Park in Africa before, and now it's the same in Pripyat!"

With that, Chen Xu simply packed up his belongings, and then set off towards Pripyat in the south.

The sun has just risen in the early morning, which is the coldest time of the day.

He could only carry a spear while hugging his body to keep warm.

When passing by the wetland, Chen Xu drank a lot of water, and since the number of excretions increased, the clinical symptoms of radiation disease in his body have been reduced a lot.

For him, this is enough.

After all, this disease can only be solved by medical treatment.

"Sometimes, it's hard to get the exact direction from the sun, and if you miss and the target is far away from us, it's very fatal, because the farther you go, the more you deviate. ”

"Therefore, we sometimes need a variety of coordinates and directions for comprehensive reference, such as rivers, Pripyat is a city built on rivers, we can find rivers along the wetlands, as long as we find rivers, we can find cities!"

Along the way, Chen Xu walked while gesturing at the wetland next to him, explaining the survival route to the audience.

And at this moment, someone suddenly saw a huge gray figure in the waterhole in front of him.

The figure seemed to be extremely alert.

Before Chen Xu approached, it turned its head and kicked its legs, and ran directly into the forest next to it.

Chen Xu stared at its back and recognized it for a moment before saying: "This size is a large ungulate, no antlers, no markings on its body, and a very long tail, it should be a Przewalski's horse." ”

"It's a rare animal that's on the verge of extinction, and until now, scientists haven't figured out why it survives in the area of nuclear radiation. ”

"Not to mention that it is a protected animal, even if it is ten meters away, it is difficult for me to kill it without tools, because it is an astute animal and very good at bursting running!"

Shaking his head, he could only carry his spear and move on.

The appearance of the Przewalski's horse aroused Chen Xu's appetite, and he has not eaten a mouthful of food since noon yesterday.

Coupled with the fact that he has consumed so much physical strength, it can be said that he is now very weak, and most of his strength is reserved for hurrying.

Fortunately, he has top-notch hiking experience and knows how to use the best way to distribute breathing and muscles to prolong the time spent exerting physical energy.

As we walked on, the puddles in the wetlands turned into pools, which turned into creeks, and the creeks began to widen.

Three hours later.

That is, close to ten o'clock in the morning in Ukraine.

In the woods next to the river, a green wooden house suddenly appeared.

This wooden house is not big, only a dozen square meters at most, but because of the age, the windows have been broken, and the wooden wall panels are also covered with yellow-green moss, and there are even some unknown large fungi, that is, mushrooms.

The scariest thing is that there are a lot of trees growing around this wooden house, which surrounds it.

From a distance, it looks like a ghost claw, sticking out of the ground and clutching the house in its hands.

Chen Xu slowly approached.

In his pocket, the alarm sound of the nuclear radiation detector does not raise the tone, indicating that there are no items with high nuclear radiation values here.

He tore open the branches, got into them, and came to the door of the house.

Just when the audience thought that Xu Ye would go in directly, who would have thought that he would come to the wooden wall of the house and stare at the mushroom in the moss.

"What's the situation, Xu Ye won't be hungry and crazy, he wants to eat this mushroom, right?"

"How many years have this been, the house has long been hairy, can you eat mushrooms?"

"Xu Ye is afraid that he is already hungry!"

"I'm in a hurry, Xu Ye may have eaten it with the house, the seaweed smells, crunchy!"

"Februaryhong came to ask for medicine!"

Chen Xu probed the mushroom with a nuclear radiation meter, and saw that the value was not abnormal, so he took it off and said with a smile: "How can I eat it, I said as early as the Serengeti live broadcast that there are too many types of large fungi, and I am not an expert in this area, so it's best not to try to eat it." ”

"The way we usually use color to distinguish between poisonous and non-poisonous mushrooms is actually very inaccurate, and the reason why I picked it is because I know that this mushroom, it is called flame fungus, which is a large fungus that grows on birch tree species. ”

"The skin is black-brown on the outside, the inside, and the inside is brownish-yellow, and the usefulness of this strain is that its hyphae are cotton-like, very flammable, and make an excellent material for starting fires. ”

"And the most powerful thing about it is that once it is ignited, it will burn slowly like embers, just like the incense we usually burn during the holidays, a fist-sized piece can continue to burn for hours. ”

"This means that you can have a flame for the rest of your journey, saving you the energy of making fires repeatedly, so to speak, for people who don't have flint and steel and lighters in the wild, this is simply an artifact!"

While explaining, Chen Xu took off two pieces and put them in his pocket.

Although he didn't carry a backpack this time, compared with ordinary slacks, outdoor trousers are more breathable and quick-drying, and there are many functional pockets on his body, and they are all scientifically calculated.

Maximize the use of space without affecting the movement of joints and muscles.

"When the flame fungus was discovered by primitive people, their traditional hunting method was completely subverted, so that humans could go farther away to hunt, because there was a fixed fire source nearby, which was a very reassuring thing!"

When the audience heard that Xu Ye didn't want to eat it, they were finally relieved, and of course, they were also surprised by the effect of this magic mushroom.
