Chapter 84 [Set a Small Goal for Yourself First]
At this time, it can be regarded as a beautiful day, or a storm just now has blown all the strong winds that should have been blowing all day. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe sun sets, and the fiery sunset is reflected in the stratus clouds, and the layers are like the scales of a red-scaled carp, and the desert becomes particularly beautiful.
No wonder some people say that the Sahara Desert is better a red desert, because this piece of sand looks particularly beautiful in the sun. So even in the most unlucky time, Chen Ergou can still enjoy the red desert.
He lost his sunglasses and had to wrap his eyes around a transparent white cloth.
The entire face except for the mouth and nostrils left outside, has been wrapped in a white sweatshirt, and with his Assassin's Creed dress, he really looks a bit like a ninja.
"Traveling in the desert, there is also a potential danger, that is, 'temporary blind glare', because the sand grains are small and shiny, they are like tiny diamonds that reflect strong sunlight, and soon your eyes will not be able to bear it, so the average desert walker will have some special hats, sunglasses and a towel that can wrap your face, only in this way, can you withstand the rolling heat from the ground and avoid the scorching climate baking your face. In fact, those Arabs who live in the desert all year round, they wear such clothes, they have learned the truth in the struggle against nature. ”
"I can't make my eyes look directly at the sand, I won't walk for a few hours and I'll be blind. If you have a piece of charcoal, you can also draw a black mark under the eyelid, which can play a reflective role and protect your eyesight. ”
After a hurried explanation, Chen Ergou couldn't help but start drinking water again.
He was so thirsty that his body was so dehydrated that if he couldn't replenish it in time, even the strongest of his body would faint in the desert. After drinking most of the jug of water in a row, he began to pee into the jug as a last resort to avoid dehydration.
The lack of water in the body is so severe that there is not much urine.
This is the second time he has peed into his kettle, and said with a wry smile: "Audience friends, in the face of survival, I must let go of my reserve as a noble chef." Once the body is deprived of water, the concentration of salt increases, so it must be diluted. Too much salt can damage the kidneys and be life-threatening. So, drinking urine can dilute the blood in your body and reduce the concentration of salt. Only then can you continue to survive. ”
"I mix the urine in a kettle and dilute the salt concentration as well. ”
"Don't think about any other mess at this time, although I'm drinking urine, I'm still a divine chef in my heart. Think of it as drinking a beer, a snow beer, and brave the world. Cheers, friends!"
He didn't say much, just raised his head and drank cleanly.
Grunting, in close-ups, gulps of liquid flow down the throat and into the stomach.
Although he said beautiful words in his mouth, this expression had completely betrayed him, as if he was drinking poison.
The audience did not cancel him, but was shocked and excited, "I really drink pee." ”
"66666, the expression lit up. ”
"Holy chef? For the first time, I felt so proud to be a restaurant chef. ”
"Snow Beer must pay the dog endorsement fee. ”
"Haha, we have to be considerate of the dog, let's just think we're really drinking beer. ”
"The first time I saw someone drinking urine, I didn't expect it to be in such a scene. ”
"Master dog, although you drink urine, I still love you. ”
Chen Ergou's handsome face was completely wrinkled, and he said with a bitter face: "Although I gave myself a psychological effect, I kept trying to convince myself that this was a glass of beer." Can...... It doesn't taste good. I'm sorry, it's too damaging to my chef's image, but I can't describe the specific taste. But now that my body is partially hydrated, it will undoubtedly keep me going longer. ”
Walking and walking, they came to a canyon-like environment, and the camel caravan finally stopped and began to chew on some dry grass along the way.
"It looks like it's in place. ”
Chen Ergou broke away from the team and began to eagerly look for food and water, "In the distance, I saw the shadows of a few date palms here, thinking that there might be an oasis or something here, but no. There are only a few near-dry date palms with some green dates on them...... I seem to have seen traces of human civilization just now, and I'll walk around the neighborhood for a while and come back to deal with these few unripe date palms. ”
After walking through a corner, he unexpectedly found a trace of a human civilization, but unfortunately there was no one, and said: "This should be a cemetery of Islamic saints." ”
It is indeed the tomb of an Islamic saint, it looks very old, and the ancient walls keep him out of the scorching yellow sand and the scorching heat.
However, Chen Ergou is clearly not the only one who has taken refuge. There were also bats that kept rustling above his head.
He hoped to find some food and drink offerings left behind by the pilgrims, but found nothing. "I'm lucky to have such a shelter, but if I can't find water, this may be my burial place. ”
"Bats can also be eaten, but there are so many viruses and parasites in their bodies that I am worried about them, so I should not touch them and go back to the date palm trees." Even though the green dates are not yet ripe, the taste will definitely be very bitter, and it is better than not being able to replenish water, right?"
He ran back quickly, and with the dexterity of his hands and feet like a monkey, he quickly climbed up the date palm tree. The eye catches the eye with a bunch of green and withered dates. picked one and stuffed it into his mouth, and a handsome face suddenly squeezed into a ball of bread, "It's too sour...... But it's practical. ”
"It can replenish vitamin C and a variety of nutrients needed by the human body, and the water in the fruit can also replenish the body's needs. ”
"Let me tell you a little story, before I went into the desert, I looked for some Moroccans who talked about the survival stories of the Sahara Desert. I had the chance to run into a couple of Tuaregs. The Tuaregs are a nomadic people who have long lived in the Sahara Desert and have been riding camels through the vast desert for more than 2,000 years.
One of the old men held a bag of ripe dates in his hand and said to me with a smile: "Three dates here will allow you to survive in the desert for nine days." For the first three days, you can eat the skin of a date every day, for the next three days, you can survive on the flesh, and for the last three days, you can swallow a date kernel a day, so that you can live for nine days. However, if you still fail to find a water source on the tenth day, you will still die of thirst. ”
Shaking his head as he spoke, he probably felt that this story was too incredible, "I can't do that, I can only make my life more nourishing." So I'm going to take all these dates with me. ”
Climbing down the tree, he didn't rush to walk, but circled around the tree and said: "The Moroccans have a saying about these date palms, their heads are in the fire and their feet are often in the water, I don't know if it's worth it." If you don't have water, you're bound to sweat and lose your stamina...... Forget it, dig a hole down here. ”
He found a hard stone, dug it up, and soon gave up again, throwing it away and saying, "It's dry down there, and there's not a drop of water here." I can't afford to be fearless in wasting my energy and fluids. From this point, you can also see how difficult it is to find water in the desert. ”
Panting and sitting down to rest for a while, he fanned the wind with his green hat and said, "Friends, in this case...... Please remember not to be impatient and always keep yourself on the edge of being human. So what are the advantages of humans?" he pointed his finger at his head, "Mind. ”
"Use what you've learned to solve problems one step at a time. ”
"Let's set a small goal for ourselves, to eat well and sleep well tonight. ”
