Chapter 157: Hell on Earth (4)
The temptation of water to a person who is extremely thirsty is even greater than the temptation of drugs to an addict during an onset of addiction.
Zhang He tumbled and fell down the moss-covered rocks, and he didn't care about the sharp pain caused by the impact, so he rolled and crawled and rushed into the clear waterhole.
As soon as he entered the pool, Zhang He couldn't help but swallow the cow and drink, and his empty stomach was soon filled with sweet stream water. After drinking enough water, Zhang He suddenly became energetic, and couldn't help but scrub away the sticky and unpleasant smell of garbage made of sweat and blood stains.
In the extreme pleasure, Zhang He completely forgot that this is a dangerous tropical rainforest, and he also completely forgot the rules of survival he formulated on the rocks, but nature used its cruelty to teach Zhang He a profound lesson.
An unstoppable force dragged it into the water like a desperate force, and then, a deadly entanglement came madly.
Nima, anaconda!
Zhang He, who barely spit out two words, was dragged into the middle of the speech mercilessly, fatally entangled, with Zhang He's every breath, it became tighter and tighter, Zhang He could clearly feel that his bones were shattering inch by inch, and he could clearly feel that his internal organs were being crushed by the ruthless winding.
A strong sense of near-death came clearly, and Zhang He, who couldn't breathe, suddenly opened his mouth wide, like a beast, and frantically tore the snake body of the anaconda wrapped around his mouth.
The sturdiness of the anaconda scale armor far exceeded Zhang He's expectations, and his teeth hurt as soon as he took his mouth, but under the pressure of his sense of impending death, Zhang He didn't notice this inconsequential toothache at all.
He was desperate, biting like a hyena that hadn't eaten for a whole month had come across a delicious carrion.
Zhang He's consciousness gradually became confused, but he was still biting frantically, and the thick smell of blood came into his mouth, and Zhang He's spirit was also lifted. Finally biting off the scale armor, the hope of escaping death was in front of him, Zhang He, who was shocked, instantly drove away the thick dizziness, and he bit the strong muscles of the anaconda one bite after another.
With his crazy bite, the anaconda that couldn't eat the pain actually slowly let go of Zhang He's body, but Zhang He still didn't dare to relax at all, and was still biting frantically, until the anaconda completely let go of his body and swam to the depths of the waterhole.
Zhang He, who was freed from the fatal entanglement of the anaconda, rushed back to the shore desperately, he gulped and greedily breathed fresh air. This lucky escape from death made Zhang He realize the danger of the rainforest again, and he no longer dared to take it lightly.
The water's edge is undoubtedly the most suitable place for human survival, and Jang Hyuk decided to stay by the waterhole.
So, he didn't care about his exhaustion, and carefully searched the canyon that was not big in front of him.
Zhang He, who was holding a dry branch as thick as a rolling pin, took the small canyon seriously, and turned it over without missing a bit, before returning to the waterhole again. There are fish in the water, but Zhang He never dares to go into the water again, who knows if there will be deadly lurking killers such as crocodiles in this seemingly safe pool, in addition to deadly anacondas.
Although fire attracts mosquitoes, it can scare away a large number of deadly predators. Therefore, Zhang He still decided to be angry and fish. Drilling wood to start a fire is a primitive man's specialty, and Zhang He wasted all his efforts to build a roaring bonfire.
After adding enough firewood to make the fire scary enough, Zhang He cautiously walked towards the frightened waterhole.
I have to say that children who grew up in the countryside have somewhat developed some ability to survive in the wild in play. For example, Zhang He at the moment used a branch sharpened on the rocks to successfully fork a fat wild tropical fish like a harpoon.
Grilled fish is also a game that Zhang He played as a child. At that time, the three or five friends took various fishing tools to fish in the pond next to the village. When he was hungry, his friends took local materials, barbecued the small fish he caught, and there were few childhood snacks, and Zhang He and others also ate with relish, and today, Zhang He inadvertently relived his childhood dreams again.
This grilled fish is probably the most delicious fish Zhang He has ever eaten in his life.
With enough water and food, Zhang He's physical strength finally slowly recovered, but a serious fact was placed in front of Zhang He. The only lighting tool, completely reimbursed as he carried away and rushed into the pool, not only lost its effect, but was also crushed to pieces by the powerful pressure of the anaconda.
The three stars of the cheating daddy!
Zhang He wanted to cry without tears, and smashed his hand full of fragments into the water.
……
As the sun gradually turned westward, Jang Hyuk once again realized the seriousness of the problem.
Night is the most dangerous time in the rainforest! There is no safe place in the rainforest at night. Zhang He carefully looked at the narrow valley and tried to find a place where he could settle down.
It's a pity that the entire canyon, except for the ancient trees in the sky, has nothing special.
Zhang He tried to use the pointed branches to chisel, trying to carve a hole in the ancient tree where he could hide. However, compared with the sturdy ancient wood, the sharpened branch is also a soft egg, and in a few clicks, the sharpened branch becomes a dull stick.
Zhang He could only give up his efforts with a long sigh.
Let's build a hut! Although it can't prevent deadly predators, it can also ward off deadly mosquitoes and leeches from the sky. After spending a lot of effort to clean all the branches one by one to ensure that there were no hidden dangers left, Zhang He used the branches with large leaves to build a temporary nest for himself.
In order to prevent the terrible mosquitoes and leeches from the sky, Zhang He weaved the wide leaves one by one to make the hut impenetrable.
It's better to die of heat than to be bitten to death by mosquitoes, and it's better than being sucked into a dry corpse by leeches, after feeling the stuffy hut, Zhang He couldn't help but think hatefully.
Jang Hyuk decides to spend the second night in the valley. As night fell, Jang Hyuk plunged headlong into the hut that made him want to go crazy after feasting on grilled fish and adding enough firewood to the campfire.
Sweat rained, Zhang He's tattered clothes were quickly soaked with sweat again, but outside the house, the roaring mosquitoes were a little deafening, but Zhang He didn't have the courage to open a breathable opening for the airtight nest.
Zhang He didn't know how many mosquitoes had gathered outside the house, nor how many leeches had fallen to the ground on the roof that fell like raindrops from time to time.
It was late at night, and Zhang He, who was suffocated to death, finally couldn't help but fall into a dream, but Zhang He didn't dare to really sleep to death, although his eyes were closed, and his head was like a chicken pecking rice, little by little, but every ten minutes, he would force himself to open his eyes and seriously grope the roof of the nest to prevent leeches from getting in.
Sure enough, when Zhang He groped for the fourth time, he really touched a few soft and sticky things, Zhang He couldn't wait to eat these nasty things alive, but Zhang He, who knew that he couldn't digest these things, could only vent his dissatisfaction with crazy stepping and grinding.
In the tropical rainforest at night, all kinds of beasts roared, all kinds of insects did not stop, Zhang He, who almost only slept for ten minutes and forced himself to wake up once, finally encountered danger again, and a sound of rustling clearly came into the ears of Zhang He, who was in a daze.
Got a snake?
Zhang He was shocked, and quickly opened the hut, and the overwhelming mosquitoes instantly swarmed in, Zhang He didn't care about mosquitoes, which would not be fatal with one blow, picked up a burning wooden stick, and searched for the source of the sound of rustling in the nest.
Sure enough, it was a snake, Zhang He, who had been angry since he was angry, frantically swung his stick, completely slapped this blind, cold-blooded animal to death, and smashed its disgusting head into meat paste.
Throwing the snake far away from the hut, Zhang He plunged into the hut again, frantically swatting countless mosquitoes on his body.
Sleep, wake up, wake up, wake up, sleep, I don't know how many times I have been awake and half-asleep, Zhang He, who went back and forth, finally stayed up until dawn. Although he didn't encounter any fatal danger other than the poisonous snake attack that night, Zhang He, who had hardly really slept before, was still exhausted.
The sun is out, the mosquitoes have dispersed, and the leeches are nowhere to be found, and after successfully preying on a grilled fish, Zhang He went into the nest again.
Although the canyon is not an absolutely safe place, it is undoubtedly a paradise compared to the terrifying slopes, and after waking up, Zhang He carefully inspected the canyon again.
Although Zhang He wanted to explore a larger area, after careful consideration, he decided to temporarily stick to the canyon and get used to this terrifying jungle first.
The night fell again, and Zhang He's torment came again.
