Chapter 384: First Exploration of the Desert
The appearance of the oasis is inseparable from the water source in the desert, and when he arrived at the first oasis, Jiang Zhuxiang saw a lake that was not small.
Jiang Zhuxiang walked out of the aircraft that had become a land vehicle, arrived at the lake, filled some water with a bottle, tested it, and found that it was fresh water, so he took out more empty bottles, after all, the water in the desert is very precious, maybe they will encounter a shortage of water at that time, although the water here cannot be drunk directly, but it is still very precious, if there is a real need at that time, boil it.
Tao Tao and Qi Qi helped Jiang Zhuxiang to fill the water together, and at the same time began to observe the situation here.
Generally, there are animals and plants on the oasis, and this oasis is no exception, although there are not many types of animals and plants, but it is also a lot, there are many traces of mutant animal activities by the lake, and they may be deterred by them if they do not appear.
Considering this situation, Tao Tao and Qi Qi did not hide it, and directly told Jiang Zhuxiang and asked her to be careful.
Jiang Zhuxiang was a little confused: "Isn't this kind of thing a mutant lion supposed to live on the grassland?" There are obviously not enough animals here for them to eat? ”
Tao Tao and Qi Qi had just seen the traces, and they still had some judgments: "It should just be a mutant lion, I don't know what happened to this oasis, since other mutant animals here can still exist, it means that the mutant lion will not be very ferocious, maybe it is a lioness, you don't want to provoke it then." ”
Jiang Zhuxiang nodded in response, the purpose of his coming here was just to find a source of identity who could be able to operate on this fragment in the future, a traveler who was lost in the desert, so he would not make another move to provoke those powerful animals.
Jiang Zhuxiang and Gluttony walked along the oasis several times, but they found no signs of human activity, so it was just right for them to rest, after all, if there were signs of human activity, they still had to beware of human injuries.
Just when it was time to make lunch, Tao Tao and Qi Qi said that they would go hunting, Jiang Zhuxiang himself stayed where he was, and was careful, and when he encountered a problem that could not be solved, he would return directly to the aircraft, and they could follow the aircraft at that time.
Jiang Zhuxiang nodded in response, but in addition to the mutant lion they said before, there should be no other threats, and even if there is, he can solve it.
Tao Tao and Qi Qi were still relatively relieved about Jiang Zhuxiang, so they started to act separately.
Jiang Zhuxiang began to prepare the firewood needed later on the edge of the water source, there are many dry plants on the edge of the oasis, which are not radiated by the water source and die of lack of water, and it is best to use it as firewood.
Jiang Zhuxiang chose a passage that could be seen at a glance, and walked back and forth several times, allowing the firewood to pile up by the lake.
After the firewood was ready, Jiang Zhuxiang took out the things he needed from his personal space and prepared a little vegetable by himself, after all, what Tao Tao and Qiqi would bring back must be mutant beast meat, in a strange place, Jiang Zhuxiang still didn't dare to overestimate his body, and it would be bad if the water and soil were not adapted.
After Jiang Zhuxiang prepared these, he began to check the plants on these oases, the plants that can live on the oasis are all relatively vigorous on their own, after all, the oasis may not be full of water, and the oasis will disappear at any time. If the water source is depleted.
Jiang Zhuxiang collected a little sample of each plant, and planned to take it back to study it when the time came.
After Jiang Zhuxiang finished this matter, Tao Tao and Qi Qi also came back.
They were obviously full, and the things they brought back were only Jiang Zhuxiang's share.
Jiang Zhuxiang thought about his appetite for gluttony, and decided to leave this oasis later, after all, the number of mutant animals here is not enough to eat a few meals, and it will not be good to be extinct at that time.
Gluttony didn't know what Jiang Zhuxiang was thinking, so he directly handed the things in his hand to Jiang Zhuxiang and asked her to decide what to do with it.
Jiang Zhuxiang took out the pot before, and Jiang Zhuxiang still planned to use it to cook.
After cleaning the blood outside the lake and rinsing it with clean water, Jiang Zhuxiang pulled out the dagger he was carrying, used it as a knife, sliced the meat into slices, and then put it in the pot and began to cook.
After removing the blood foam, Jiang Zhuxiang put all kinds of vegetables in it, including the potatoes found in another fragment earlier, so that Jiang Zhuxiang could fill his stomach.
After Jiang Zhuxiang is full, deal with the traces, after all, this is a strange place, they still have to be careful, in case someone finds the traces here, then Jiang Zhuxiang and they are not easy to explain.
After lunch, Jiang Zhuxiang directly proposed: "Let's go through the desert and take a look at other places, but there may not be many mutant animals in the desert, and we may need to use our reserves at that time." ”
Tao Tao and Qi Qi have no opinion, he has a lot of reserves, and they should be replenished at any time when they go to other places, but they are not very worried, and this kind of place in the desert is the best place to hone a person, Tao Tao they proposed: "Then Xiaoxiang, you put away the flying machine first, let's go through it on foot, and we will have to put on makeup when we meet people at that time." ”
Jiang Zhuxiang had planned to hike, so he had no objection to put away the flying machine, but it was the hottest time at noon, and it was obviously not the best time to enter the desert, so they still had to stay in the oasis until dark.
This kind of common sense was checked when Jiang Zhuxiang decided to come here, so he wouldn't make this kind of common-sense mistake, Tao Tao and Qi Qi originally planned to set off now, but after listening to Jiang Zhuxiang's explanation, they didn't insist anymore, after all, they just wanted to train their juniors, not torture her.
When it got dark, Jiang Zhuxiang directly took out the reserves, not letting the gluttony and Qiqi go out to hunt again, after a simple meal, he began the first step on the desert, the sand under his feet still has the temperature of the day, Jiang Zhuxiang and the gluttony they walked one foot deep and one foot shallow, and they had to be careful of the quicksand.
However, the desert around the oasis is relatively safe, Jiang Zhuxiang and the others were careful, and they still didn't encounter any particularly dangerous situations overnight, except for encountering some mutant scorpions that came out to move.
The appearance of mutant scorpions was actually expected by Jiang Zhuxiang, after all, scorpions are also the most common animals in the desert, so it is not troublesome to deal with, and Jiang Zhuxiang can also use them in medicine. (To be continued.) )
