Chapter 66 [Straw Hat Boy]
A little joke, both physically and mentally relaxed. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
But it's not a matter of sitting and chatting like this, and after resting for a while, Chen Ergou stood up again. cheer up and greet the camera: "Happy New Year, new friends, I'm Chen Ergou, welcome to my live broadcast room." ”
"I'm in the Sahara Desert in northern Africa. In the next few days, I will lead you in the world's largest desert to find the most primitive food, and use my own experience to teach you how to survive in desperate situations. ”
"In such a hot environment, you consume a litre of water per hour. You won't even notice to yourself that if you don't drink water, there's no hope of living, and you're going to have to do everything you can to get water whenever and wherever you want. ”
He left this brief shelter, went around a few trees not far away, and explained:
"There are many ways to find water in the desert, the most obvious of which is to look directly for plants that have water 'signs'. The ground is relatively damp, and water sources can generally be found around plants such as sage, white thorn, triangular, sycamore, willow, salt cedar, cattail, etc. Look for places where the grass grows luxuriantly, verdant, and green, and dig down until water seeps into the pit you dug. ”
"This is the most common plant in the Sahara Desert, this is the three-mango grass, this is the acacia bush, and there is a willow tree...... But not what I wanted. ”
Shaking his head regretfully, he said: "Desert plants are deep-rooted plants, usually with a more developed root system, and the leaves degenerate into needles, and the most important thing is that their drought tolerance is extraordinary. So sometimes green plants don't necessarily represent water, they are better at absorbing water vapor, and the very small amount of water on the ground is absorbed by them. ”
Chen Ergou rubbed his foot against the ground, raising a piece of loess ash.
This place is not sand, but loess, and the sun-dried loess is extremely dry. The ground is potholed, and there are small yellow grass everywhere.
"Digging a hole in such a place will undoubtedly accelerate the loss of my physical strength and body fluids. And judging by my knowledge and experience, there is no moisture to be found here. ”
He didn't give up, he cut down some soft willow branches and began to weave a willow striped ring-shaped straw hat, which would provide more shade from the sun and more ventilation to his brain than wearing a hood.
"The willow tree in the desert is called willow, which is a deciduous tree that can reach a height of 18 meters and a diameter at breast height of 80 centimeters. They grow quickly and can be propagated with cuttings. It is often used as shelterbelts and greening tree species. I now use its soft branches to weave a plump canopy straw hat. ”
"Drop, congratulations to the host for triggering the weaving skill, currently LV1. ”
As a child, he liked to climb trees, and he has always been very skilled at handling these knick-knacks.
I still remember when I was a child, there was a pond in front of my house, and there were a few huge willow trees by the pond. A group of children always like to use a slingshot made of willow branches to beat the birds, of course, in the summer, weaving a willow straw hat to wear on the head, will definitely gain the envy of many friends.
It's just that it's been a long time since I've grown up touching these things.
Now with the help of the system, his slender ten fingers shuttled, and soon he knitted a straw hat that was almost a craft. I put it on my head and tried it, it just fit, and I felt very good, as if I was really several years younger. smiled: "Very good, I have a straw hat with a shade, and its effect is very obvious under such a scorching sun, I think I can take a screenshot and post a Weibo now." ”
"666, this craft is invincible. ”
"The straw hat is so cool! it's only a little worse than Luffy's straw hat. ”
"Hey, the straw hat kid in front, do you sell your hat, I'll pay 1 dime. ”
"1 cent is also called money, where does it come from, I will pay two cents. ”
"You poor ghosts, get up, I'll make 5 cents!"
……
Chen Ergou continued to walk in the direction ahead, "People go to high places and water flows to low places, and the cliffs over there are very low, and you may be able to find water sources in the canyon below." You can also keep an eye out for wildlife tracks, especially in the morning and evening. Where you can see insects, flies, animals, and birds, there must be water nearby. Their footprints are then traced, and groundwater sources can often be found. ”
"Flocks of birds will hover over the water source. In the morning and evening, keep an eye out for their calls and you can determine where they are located. Quails fly to the water source in the evening and leave early in the morning. Turtle doves fly to the water source in the morning and evening. You can also look for holes and dens of wild animals, as they are close to water sources for food. ”
"Or climb high and look far away, and see if there is a palm land that is high on all sides and low in the middle, or in the shape of a dustpan on three sides, in the middle or low on one side, and in the low-lying areas between the mountains, it is very likely that a water source will be found. ”
"The principle is very simple, people go to high places and water flows to low places!"
After about ten minutes, he came to a stop in front of a cliff. The dog's camera glanced down, and all he saw was the dark and deep canyon.
Chen Ergou also felt the cold wind in the canyon blowing on his face, and was suddenly stunned, and said happily: "Audience friends, I found it!"
"I found the water, and a cool breeze blowing up the ground below the canyon told me the information. My sense of smell and touch is very sensitive, and the cool breeze has a moist sensation that is noticeably different from the air around me. I'm sure there's water down there. ”
He came to the edge of the cliff and looked down, the cliff was very deep and narrow, about ten meters deep. Both sides are full of strange rocks with steep protrusions, which are extremely steep. And the visibility below is so low that when viewed from above, it is dark, which adds to the horror.
Grabbing a piece of gravel and throwing it down, hearing the sound of the stone constantly hitting the raised rock on the left and right makes people feel a palpitation, as if the tumbling and falling stone is itself.
"This cliff canyon is very high, and the soil and rocks are very loose. It must have been caused by an earthquake many years ago. Usually walking along the canyon, it is a good place to find water. Because there is very little sunlight below the canyon, water evaporates slowly. Now I'm going to try to climb down and see if I can get my way. ”
Chen Ergou was not afraid at all, and quickly took action.
Untie the parachute rope that had been on your body for most of the day, tie it into a set, and tie it to a nearby raised rock rooted in the ground, and tie the other end around your waist. After a few tugging, without saying a word, he jumped directly onto a raised rock two meters below.
The audience could not see the raised rock below from this angle, and they were all taken aback by his action.
Fortunately, the camera of the dog followed closely, and then the audience saw Chen Ergou like an agile mountain antelope, jumping between several raised rocks. Every time you step on the gravel and earth rock, the deep canyon of the smashing bangs non-stop, and the acrobatic jumping action also makes the audience scared. But he was fine, jumping and holding the rope, and a moment later he landed at the bottom of the canyon without danger.
The bottom of the canyon is like another cave, and the light is not dark, but it looks bright, but there is no heat of sun exposure. Looking up at the sky, it's like looking at a sinuous white line.
The most gratifying thing is that all kinds of strange green plants can be seen everywhere, "Sure enough, there is water, and the water looks very clear." But ......"
