Chapter II: Preliminary Exploration
Ansu built several curved stone walls with stones at low tides, and when the tide receded, the fish could not swim away, and then they could catch turtles in the urn. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Ansu searched for a while, noted down the location of a few fish, and returned to the woods. In the middle of the day, when the beach was hot and hot, Ansu found a long, straight branch, cut it with a knife and divided it into eight sticks, and several branches were stuffed into the gaps, and finally the heads of the eight sticks were sharpened, and a simple harpoon was completed.
The sun was scorching, and Ansu didn't plan to go out again, so she went into the woods to find some more water vines and some materials to make a fire. In the past, housekeeping robots took care of housekeeping robots, and Ansu had never cooked by himself, and he ate in the canteen in the army, and he had no opportunity to cook. Fortunately, she has received survival training, so she can know how to make fires and handle some food. This time, Ansu walked a little further into the woods and found that there were several water vines, Ansu cut one and drank the water that flowed out, and after about 10 seconds, the wound secreted a kind of mucus, sealed the wound, and the water stopped. Ansu rolled the two-finger-wide water vine into a circle and carried it through his arm and on his shoulder. I found some dry moss in the hollow of the tree, cut a few dry branches, and returned to the beach.
The sun is approaching the sea level, and the color of the sea is getting deeper and deeper, and it is beginning to glow with blue light. The blue is mixed with orange and red, like a magnificent Persian carpet spread out on the surface of the sea. The sea breeze is blowing slowly, and the temperature is getting cooler. Ansul plans to light a fire before nightfall. Ansu first cut a wooden stick, one end against the armpit, the other end to the fingertips, and then carved a groove at each end, untied the rope from the military boot, tied one end and the other end, and made a fire bow. Ansu chose an unknotted stick, sharpened the two ends, and circled the strings of the fire bow. To make a fire bow and a fire drill, Ansu split a relatively large piece of wood to make a bearing seat, use a knife to cut a small hole in it, and then set up the fire bow, fire drill, and bearing seat, step on the fire plate with one foot, pull the bow with one hand, press the bearing seat connected with the fire drill with the other hand, pull it up, wait until the fire drill and the bearing seat are completely fitted, and then use a knife to cut a V-shaped small hole in the center of the small hole in the fire board, and put a thin piece of bark under it to connect the burning chips. Then the fire bow, fire drill, and bearing seat are erected, and the fire bow is pulled up, and the heat is generated by friction. Burning debris is constantly falling on the thin bark of the tree, and the smell of fireworks is faintly visible.
The sweat on the forehead kept pouring out, and some accidentally slipped into the eyes, and it was hot and painful. An Su pursed her lips, and her hand did not stop for a moment. The temperature is getting higher and higher, the smell of burnt paste penetrates into his nose, and An Suo's eyes are shining, and it should be enough to pull a few dozen times, An Su estimated in his heart. It was the first time she had used this most primitive method of friction to generate heat to make a fire. In the past, when I was training for survival, the most rudimentary thing was to bring flint and steel bars, and when I scraped it close to the velvet, the sparks burst out, and the fire was born. Drilling wood for fire is really the most primitive, but the most primitive is the most troublesome. Bang, the fire drill was broken, the rope was not broken, An Su put aside the fire drill, squatted towards the pile of grinding out of the burning debris and gently fanned it with his hand, there was no slightest fire, no, so he had to find another branch to make one, and pulled four in succession, and wasted two fire plates, and the fire had not yet risen. The lost water took away the energy, and Ansu slowed down the speed of pulling the bow at this time, he hadn't eaten anything for a day, and he hadn't succeeded in rubbing and making a fire and consuming a lot of energy, and he couldn't help but feel a little depressed in his heart. I think she is a dignified interstellar female captain, who has conquered the planet and conquered the galaxy, but she can't make a small fire. Ansu got up irritably and walked a few steps, and simply dug up tonight's residence on the beach first. Night had fallen, and the surrounding light was bright, soft, but not dazzling, like a cold moonlight. Unknown nocturnal animals in the woods have long been out for activities, sometimes making strange noises. All kinds of sounds mingle in the night, quiet and lively.
After Ansu dug a pit on the beach, placed branches horizontally and vertically on the surface of the pit, covered it with broad leaves and sand, and finally spread the wide leaves in the pit, Ansu was so tired that she sat on the ground and gasped for breath. Although the body has been transformed to be much stronger, it is flesh and blood after all, even if it is a powerful weapon, without the support of energy, it is a pile of scrap copper and rotten iron. Ansu curled up in a pit a little bigger than her, looking up at the bright starry sky, wondering which place was the galaxy where the Federation was located? I wonder if Lynn will be able to go back safely? Are the subordinates alive or dead? How can I find more food? More fresh water? And how can you make a fire? ……
With a mess in her mind, Ansu forced herself to close her eyes and rest in order to regain her lost mental and physical strength. The simple sand pit, the leaves and stones, and the unknown dangers, of course, Ansu slept unsteadily, and was woken up by a squeak at night, Ansu was so manic that he wanted to kill.
There are a few dark shadows on the beach chasing me, and you have a lot of fun. A few of them accidentally approached, and Ansu could see their appearance clearly. It resembles an otter, but is more than twice as large as an otter, with a layer of oily black hair, round green eyes, sharp claws, and webbed feet. Ansu saw that some people still had fish in their mouths, so they should have come out at night to find food.
A few got close enough to find the pit that Ansu had dug. Ansu slowed her breathing, tried her best to hide her breath, and quietly touched the saber in her hand. As soon as these animals attack her, she will not hesitate to do so. But the animals just walked around the pit, played around for a while, and then left. Ansu breathed a sigh of relief, but couldn't sleep anymore and kept her eyes open until dawn.
The sun had just risen over the sea, and the night had not yet dispersed, and the sky was still gray-blue-gray-blue. The tide had receded, the rocks on the shore were slippery, and a few seabirds skimmed over the surface of the sea, flying again with a fish with a tail still flicking in their mouths. Ansu took a homemade harpoon to inspect the stone wall that had been enclosed yesterday, and found something, this time trapping three bluebacks and a crab. Ansu ate two blueback fish to relieve the burning in his throat and the hunger in his stomach, and the rest of the fish and crab were forked on the harpoon, intending to make a fire and roast them before eating. But I didn't want to do it, this time because the moss was still wet and not ignited by the burning chips, Ansu put the sun on the stone for a while and then used it, and after several twists and turns, the fire finally rose. The flames kept **** the dead branches, and soon grew stronger. Ansu wiped the sweat from her forehead and breathed a sigh of relief, if she didn't light the fire again, she couldn't help but pull out the beam gun and blast the firewood pile into slag. An Su stretched the muscles and bones of his whole body, it was not easy to make a fire in the primitive state, the energy of his whole body seemed to be drained, and after sweating, An Su felt even more dry and dry. The water from the water vines simply cannot replace the lost water, and without other sources of fresh water, Ansu may die of thirst. Ansu has a few plans to find water in his mind, but the materials are not easy to find, and those materials may not be available at all on this strange planet.
Alternatives must be found, Ansu thought. Before he had time to taste the fish and crabs that had been grilled so hard, Ansu hurriedly ate them and plunged into the woods of the island. A few days ago, I was just exploring the woods by the sea, mainly along the coastline, but I hadn't finished walking for three days, and Ansu was a little skeptical that he had floated to the seaside of the mainland. This time she decided to explore a little more and then return to the camp by the sea in the evening. Until a stable source of food is found in the woods, it is impossible for Ansu to go too far from the sea, because there is only a stable source of food in the sea. Moreover, the sea may bring missing subordinates. An Su still retains a glimmer of hope in her heart.
Along the way, the most are the tall blue-leaved trees, with thousands of roots hanging down from the branches, densely packed and alone. The branches are covered with thick moss and entwined with various vines. The sun leaked down sporadically, and the ground was covered with a layer of soft leaves, and when you stepped on it, the smell of corruption spread out like a punctured balloon. Unknown plants grow sparsely. With a straight stick in one hand, Ansu squatted down to take a closer look at the ground. There were a few rows of paw prints left on the soft mud on the ground, like duck's paws and goose's paws, and Ansu remembered the small animals from last night, and the paw prints may have been left by them. Ansu followed the paw prints all the way out of the blue-leaf forest, and a large cliff stood in front of him. One side of the cliff is connected to the sea, and it has been eroded into various strange shapes over the years. Ansu looked at the rough sea water under the cliff and frowned slightly, it may be difficult for a person to pass through the sea water below the cliff, but that kind of animal is not necessarily. Maybe they come here from that side to feed, after all, the sea here is calmer and there is a lot of seafood. Unfortunately, the cliff blocked the view, and Ansu didn't know anything about the situation on the other side of the cliff. Ansu visually measured the height of the cliff, which was about 100 meters, and Ansu could easily climb it without the help of tools before. But now, even if he borrows tools, Ansu's physical fitness can't keep up. Under the steep cliffs, there are rocks, and the waves crash on the shore, and in case of falling, the chances of survival are extremely slim. An Su calculated in his heart that it was not wise to rush to climb the cliff and consume a lot of energy, so he still looked for another path.
After discerning the direction, Ansu walked in the other direction. Walking all the way to the west, it takes about 30 minutes to walk out of the blue-leaf forest. As soon as you come out of the woods, you will be greeted by a patch of green, lush greenery, indicating vigorous vitality. Seeing so much familiar green, Ansu's eyebrows and eyes relaxed, but the red grass leading to the woods under her feet didn't seem friendly. The red leaves, which pierced the sky like a blood-stained sword, were narrow and sharp, with jagged teeth growing on the edges, more domineering than thorns, a natural barrier.
