Because of this sudden raid, the team was forced to stay here for a while longer. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Chen Ergou was also afraid, although it was not his fault, but what he was doing now was teaching others to survive in the wilderness, if someone was killed by the rock python under his leadership, then his reputation would definitely be seriously damaged.

Of course, he is not such a selfish guy who only cares about himself, saving people is just instinctive, not for the sake of his own fertility. After discovering the danger, he immediately picked up his weapon and rushed forward.

Fortunately, there was no danger in the end.

Except for a small piece of the python corpse that was handed over to Rengar to molar, Chen Ergou cut off a piece and kept it, and the rest were all abandoned in the dense forest, so that they could not be left here to provoke ants to attack.

In fact, he wanted to eat python meat, but he was embarrassed to eat python meat in front of so many people in the live broadcast room.

No matter how vicious this guy is, it's also a protected animal. If you kill it, you will kill it, it is excusable, but you will not eat it in front of so many people.

Let's leave a piece of meat first, and don't touch it for the time being until it's in a desperate situation.

The audience on the opposite side of the live broadcast room was also frightened, and anyone who just clicked in and saw such a disgusting lump of "snake balls" eating people would not be in a good mood.

Chen Ergou asked Jenny to help Old Baker massage to relieve himself, and then ran to the creek to see if there was anything to eat.

At the same time, he didn't forget to say to the camera: "Friends, did you scare everyone just now?"

"As you can see, it was too sudden, and the situation was very dangerous. If I wake up a little later, the consequences will be unimaginable. ”

The barrage is all about telling.

"I was scared. "I'm scared to pee. "I saw this scene as soon as I entered the live broadcast room, and I almost scared out of lunch. "You have to compensate for the dog. "Dance a striptease, sing a song, and we'll forgive you." ”……

Chen Ergou touched his nose, was speechless, thought about it and changed the topic: "According to WHO statistics, the number of humans bitten by snakes is 100,000 per year, the number of people killed by zoo attacks is 20 per year, the number of people eaten by sharks per year is 8, and the number of people eaten by other large carnivores is actually about 10 per year. ”

"Rock pythons are large carnivores. ”

"There is no doubt that being eaten by reptiles, especially legless reptiles, is very scary. So when you do encounter reptiles, how do you avoid them?"

After a pause, remembering the situation just now, he could only smile bitterly: "Actually, I don't have too good advice, it depends on the situation." Someone once found a 21-meter-long anaconda molting in the Amazon, and if you really meet that kind of big guy, I can't think of any good way but to run. ”

"This rock python is about 6 meters long, and it is not the most dangerous. The most dangerous of the pythons are anacondas, which will observe their target for at least 5 minutes before diving into the water and quietly dragging the person down from the bottom of the water, wrapping it tightly around the person's torso. ”

"If you are unfortunate enough to encounter a large snake dragging someone into the water, it will not drown the person. Because the snake also has to breathe, but will float on the surface of the water like a wheel and roll tightly around people, and like any other python method of predation, it will wrap around the torso of people, and people will exhale a breath, and it will be tighter until people can not breathe at all and suffocate to death, and it will listen to people's heartbeats, and it will not let go of people's corpses until they stop heartbeat. ”

Then drag it to the shore and enjoy it slowly. At this time, the python will open its mouth and swallow slowly from the head, no matter how obese, the snake's mouth will get out of the head and chin joints to stretch the throat to eat, their bodies are elastic, can hold up very much, after eating, this snake is estimated to be able to sleep for most of the year......"

"If you encounter a large python attack without a helper, the rate of people being eaten is more than 90%...... As for why it wasn't 100%, it was because a Malaysian woman was doing laundry at the water's edge when she was attacked by a hungry anaconda, and finally the woman knocked the snake unconscious with a wooden stick in her hand, so that it had to give up. The woman had to be glad that the snake was not big enough and had not eaten for more than 3 months. ”

"Otherwise, the best way not to be eaten by pythons is to stay away from their habitat. ”

The audience got goosebumps when he said it, the experience just now was so terrifying, and he could stop it in moderation.

After working in the river for a long time, he didn't find a lobster, but his foot was stuck by a thumb-sized leech to suck blood.

Peeling off the trouser leg, the wriggling appearance of the red-black blood-sucking leech under the lens is clearly visible, and it makes people sick to their stomachs.

Chen Ergou said: "It is very common to find leeches in the jungle, if you go into the water, you must always check your whole body." Leeches have a suction cup at each end of their head, and when it sucks up your skin, it sticks like glue. ”

He flicked his fingers a few times, but he didn't bounce it down, and he grabbed this guy with two fingers, feeling nauseous. Throwing it on the dirt and crushing it, "Leeches can spread the source of infection, but they are nothing compared to other diseases that can be infected. The forests are full of terrible diseases such as river blindness, sleeping sickness, elephantiasis and the dreaded Ebola virus, so it's best not to bleed. ”

Standing on the shore, he looked carefully at his trouser legs, and sure enough, he found that there were blood stains in the other two places. It was already visible through the wet pants, and a large patch of blood was visible.

He simply took off his pants and checked, where the two fat leeches really clinged to and sucked blood.

The audience was shocked, but they ignored the fact that Chen Ergou took off his pants without saying a word.

"Ah, Chen, it's a leech. I'm going to get tweezers. Jenny was originally curious that Chen Ergou took off his pants, but when she peeked at it, she saw these two disgusting things and exclaimed.

"No need. Chen Ergou casually crushed the two guys to death, put on his pants again, and continued to go into the water to catch fish.

"Chen, I'll help you catch fish. ”

Anthony was also frightened by the leech, and with some hesitation, he finally walked over.

"Is Professor Baker better?"

"It's much better. ”

This creek is not rich in fish resources, and he caught five lobsters and two palm-sized small fish for half a day, and Anthony Mao didn't catch one, which was very embarrassing.

But that's all, plus some greenery yesterday, it's barely enough for him to make a fish soup meal.

A quarter of an hour later, the sun rose into the sky, and the light of light from the horizon went straight into the woodlands on the hillside, dispelling the misty mist.

Chen Ergou also finished making a pot of steaming fish soup.

The four of them drank soup and ate some fruit, and it was today's breakfast. It's simple, but it's also delicious. Compared to their previous lives, it was not on a notch at all.

After drinking the hot fish soup, the stomach instantly warmed up, and the mood of the person was much better.

It's just that I still wanted to explore this volcanic woodland, but now I am not in the mood to explore, and I just want to go home quickly.

Chen Ergou was ready to find a way to jump over, go straight to the Ganguo River on the opposite side, and then drift down to find a way to survive.

"Professor, can you still go?"

Old Baker was a little weak, it seemed that the incident still had a big impact on him, and he said, "I'm fine, I can still go." ”

Chen Ergou raised his eyebrows and ordered, "Jenny, you can help the professor share the contents of the backpack." ”

"Okay. ”

The team's survival journey for the second day begins.

The jungle environment familiar to the audience also returned to the camera again.

Forty meters above is the sun-drenched canopy, but it is a world out of reach. The owner of the forest sticks his head into the sky, but below is a bewildering labyrinth that remains unchanging. Even if Chen Ergou is an experienced wilderness explorer, entering here is no different from Grandma Liu's entering the Grand View Garden, as long as you wander around curiously, you will immediately find yourself lost.

This is the best portrayal of seeing the trees but not the forest, no matter which direction, you can only see dense vegetation blocking the way.

Chen Ergou said: "I still find it incredible that early explorers such as Livingston and Stanley could walk a thousand kilometers in this jungle. In the middle of it, there is no way to even tell the position of the sun, and there is no way to find the direction on the horizon. ”

"It's not easy to move around here without special means, not only because you're tired, but you have to be careful not to misplace your hands and feet. ”

He said it to the audience in the live broadcast room, and also to the three people behind him.

Old Baker recovered well and said with emotion: "This is the Congo jungle, why should it be so comfortable as in the park? This place is not for humans or animals, this is the world that trees have built for themselves." Trees dominate all life in the terrestrial world. Its canopy shades the sun, and its fallen leaves and branches cover the ground, overlooking all the living things on it. ”

"You're right. ”

"Chen, are we in the circle?" Anthony found something.

Chen Ergou said: "No, I'm looking for a way that people can pass safely. When I was passing by, I saw a banana tree with some kind of large animal grazing traces, and I should have found something nearby. ”

Everyone was puzzled.

Even if they concentrate here, they can only seek self-preservation, and they have no time to observe their surroundings. But they can only listen to Chen Ergou.

It didn't take long for Chen Ergou to find out and hurry over.

Vines, rotting leaves, and shrubs disappeared from beneath your feet, and a jungle path with a view of the yellow earth appeared.

"There's a way!" said Jenny.

Chen Ergou said: "Yes, fortunately, there are indeed intersecting trails in this jungle, but this is not a human coming out, but an elephant who is the pioneer of the jungle." A "road" that seems to be a road, accompanied by a long chain of footprints, extends all the way into the jungle, when people call it "elephant road".

"No matter what kind of elephant it is, it can't be more terrible than a python. In Jenny's mind, the python has surpassed the elephant and risen to the top of the list of the most terrifying animals.

After all, stepping on the soft rotten leaves all the time, there is a feeling of stepping on cotton, and it is unsettling to be uneasy if it is not connected to the world or to the ground. Now that they can finally put their feet on the ground, everyone's expressions are a lot more relaxed.

"Actually, there are a lot of elephants here, according to incomplete statistics, there are about 200,000 elephants in the Congo Basin. Much more than the humans who live here. ”

"There are so many of them, but they're quiet. I've walked many elephant roads before, and I've only encountered them once?" Chen Ergou asked a question of his own.

At the mention of animals, Old Baker instantly forgot the nightmare of escaping under the python's mouth, and said a little energetically: "That's the elephant deliberately avoiding you." Round-eared elephants communicate with each other, but humans don't always hear elephants communicating. ”

"With the help of professional sound reinforcement equipment, it is possible to distinguish the sound waves of elephant communication in a certain frequency. It's a pity we didn't have the equipment with us. It sounded like a rumble, completely different from the trumpet sound that people usually hear. Most of the sound is too low, like some kind of infrasound, and the human ear cannot pick it up. ”

Jenny asked, "Professor, why do elephants emit infrasound like that?"

"In a place like this, the sound is suppressed by the vegetation, and only the low-frequency sound can be unimpeded. The rumbling sound of an elephant is like a hot cream knife, slicing through the forest like cream. The trunk of the elephant makes a long-distance call, carrying a message through dense rainforests, and can even be transmitted to several kilometers away, where it is picked up by other members of its kind. The Jungle Elephant would not have been able to live in the jungle without these sounds. ”

"Why is that?"

"To survive. "In order to find enough food, they are forced to disperse to various parts of the jungle, and the rumble in the jungle is their main way of socializing and communicating. ”

Chen Ergou was taught, his focus was different, and he had indeed heard some knowledge for the first time, and asked, "Then what messages do they usually send?"

"It's a lot, maybe it's the news of a tree bearing fruit, maybe it's just looking for a loved one or maybe it's just a mother elephant calling for a mate. Old Baker looked energetic and said, "The speed of low-frequency sound through the ground is actually faster than that in the air. Sometimes the elephant's ears may not have heard it, and the thick pillar-like legs of the elephant are the first to sense the message. They may also be able to calculate the time difference and determine the distance of the caller. ”

As incredible as it sounds, every animal here has its own way of life, even in such a hostile environment.

Chen Ergou quickly thought of some of the phenomena he had seen and asked, "How do other animals, such as chimpanzees, adapt to this dense forest?" It was a close human relative, and it couldn't hear any low-frequency sound waves. ”

"Have you ever seen a chimpanzee knocking on the root of a pillar?"

Chen Ergou recalled, and suddenly, "Even if the chimpanzee walks, it will roll the root of a certain tree and knock it a few times. Looks naughty, is it transmitted remotely like this?"

"Yes, they also choose the roots of their preferred large trees and knock them every time they pass by to let nearby chimpanzees know where they are. But these cacophony voices are not random. Chimpanzees' diet consists of fruits, nuts and meat, and the area is very widespread and difficult to find, and the best strategy is to spread out into squads, with each team responsible for a certain area. This allows the chimpanzee to search an area of 10 square kilometres in a matter of hours. As soon as one of the teams finds enough food, they will call their friends to share it with a special shout. ”

As he was talking, there was a familiar shout of "oh oh" in the forest.

Chen Ergou carefully identified it, "It's a chimpanzee barking!"

"Haha, it's a chimpanzee calling out to his companions, and it looks like a team has found food. ”

It didn't seem to be far away, Chen Ergou Ran searched the treetops, and soon found the target.

A few chimpanzees are nimbly climbing trees in the treetops, clutching a heavy load of fruit and nibbling on it. The fruit that can't be eaten is thrown on the ground, and the small animals that live on the ground are cheapened.

The three zoologists were tempted to observe on the spot for a while, but unfortunately it was out of place.

Just observed for a while and didn't bother, so I continued on my way.

On this jungle path, there are also some dung heaps everywhere, and there are various animals, indicating that it is a trail with heavy traffic. "Be careful not to kick the animal's droppings, which will disturb the owner. Chen Ergou prompted.

Then I turned a corner, and suddenly I met a group of quiet, huge animals.

The atmosphere froze instantly, and the three of them all looked at Chen Ergou.

"Stand on the side of the road and don't move. Chen Ergou commanded in a low voice.

Several elephants with huge ears and long trunks looked at them. Stalemate with each other, the elephants seem to be exchanging information.

Except for Chen Ergou, the other three were a little nervous, but none of them dared to move a step. A moment later the elephant walked into the jungle from the other side of the trail, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Chen Ergou said: "The skin of this group of elephants is wet, which means that there is either a river in front of it, or an open water source where elephants often drink water. It's worth exploring. ”

"We are going from where they came, and we are all keeping up. ”
