Chapter 309: Water Resources in the Wild
In the morning, everyone got up before dawn to pack their things, and although the journey was easier today, it was not easy for them.
On everyone's body, they carried a package, large and small, and these were the equipment they had to survive in the forest.
Everyone gathered together, close to thirty people, of which more than twenty were mercenaries, and everyone could have weapons and equipment on their bodies except for tents for survival in the wild.
Yuris looked at everyone, then at the forest, and said with a full sense of anger, "Let's go." ”
Mickey Mouse has disappeared, and Simba is following Xu Wenjie, its huge body makes people a little stunned. Some people who hadn't seen Simba last night were also scared at the first sight of Simba.
When they learned that this was the pet brought by Xu Wenjie, everyone was a little stunned, a lion like a calf was someone else's pet, and they had a new understanding of some things in this world.
Although the vegetation in this section of the forest is very dense, because it is the periphery, there are some roads that have been stepped out of it, and it is now overgrown with weeds.
Originally, the mercenaries wanted to be at the forefront and prevent the unexpected. However, he was rejected by Xu Wenjie, and he let Simba go ahead, which could solve some troubles.
Yuris explained to the crowd, "There are a lot of poisonous insects in here, and some of them we haven't seen before. So, if you accidentally get bitten by some bug, be sure to tell me. Otherwise, if something happens, it may be too late. ”
"Yuris, you don't need to explain to them, these people often go in and out of such forests, and they know how to defend against bugs. The stuff we sprayed on us this morning is to repel bugs. As the researcher spoke, he looked at Xu Wenjie. Because there is no spray on Xu Wenjie's body.
Xu Wenjie noticed his eyes, but he was a little helpless, not that he wanted to be a maverick, but that the little white dragon in his hand hated that kind of breath, so he didn't spray.
He wanted to explain to these people that he didn't spray. Neither will the hapless bug find him. But even if he said this, this group of people would not believe him.
"It's so badly cut down here, isn't there anyone who cares? If this continues, it won't be long before this place, known as the 'lungs of the world' and providing one-fifth of humanity's oxygen every day, will become a desert. ”
Xu Wenjie smiled and said, "Who's in charge?" This is people's land. People cut down the resources here, and others have nothing to say. It's like if you burn money like paper at home, no one else can take care of it. ”
Yuris looked at Xu Wenjie and explained: "It's not that I don't care, but I can't take care of it." The Brazilian government wants to take care of it. But you know, every year there are people who come here and live here. And those people are likely to come from other countries, and the Brazilian government has no control over them. ”
Xu Wenjie also understands. However, he felt that there was already the government's connivance in this. Otherwise. Even if those people were to cultivate forests and farmland, they would not have been able to cause such great damage.
There is not such a saying: where there is buying and selling, there is killing, and where there is trading, there is destruction.
Although the sun had already risen, probably because of the relationship between the woods, everyone did not feel how hot it was. After walking for nearly two hours, I looked at the rest of the way. Yuris stopped everyone and prepared to rest for a while.
Then, Xu Wenjie curiously followed a few mercenaries and Bell to find water.
Entering here, they only brought some compressed food in case of accidents. Water, something that seriously increases their own load, and no one carries it. Because there is no shortage of water in such a forest.
Xu Wenjie watched Bell cut the bark of a tree with a knife, and leaned over with some curiosity. Although he is not worried about danger, he has no comparison with these people in terms of survival skills in the forest.
"What is this?" Xu Wenjie looked at the sap left from the tree.
Bell looked up at him, tried the sap with his hand, frowned, shook his head and said: "A kind of sap that can be used as water to drink, but unfortunately the sap of this tree has not yet reached the standard of drinking, you can taste it yourself, it is a little bitter." ”
Xu Wenjie dipped a little bit of his finger and tried to taste it, but his face suddenly turned bitter, and he looked at Bell a little depressed, wondering if this guy was cheating on himself. It's a bit bitter, Nima, more bitter than bitter gourd.
"Don't look at me like that, it doesn't taste that bad, especially if you haven't drunk water for a few days. Moreover, in addition to quenching thirst, this sap can also provide a certain amount of nutrients to people. ”
Well, Xu Wenjie is convinced, if he really encounters that situation, he feels that he will never try it until he finds other water sources.
"Are you going to get this sap back to drink, I don't think they'll accept it."
"No, no, I'm not going to let them drink anything like that. There is plenty of water here, and we don't need to drink this unpleasant liquid. So saying, he got up and walked into the forest.
Xu Wenjie followed him, saw that he found a place with lush vegetation, first stabbed the ground with a dagger, observed it, and then began to dig a pit.
Soon, a basin-sized puddle was dug out by him. After a few minutes, I saw water overflowing from the ground.
Seeing that he was about to collect the water, Xu Wenjie had to admit that Bell had a hand. However, in such a forest, there seems to be a better solution to the water source.
"I think we'd better go find a better source of water, and even if we get it, it needs to be settled. Otherwise, those people probably won't drink it. Come with me, I'll take you to find a better alternative to water and solve the problem of food. ”
Bell looked at Xu Wenjie, not knowing what he was talking about, but he still stood up.
Xu Wenjie walked in front, Bell followed, and the two walked towards the woods. Xu Wenjie has found edible fruits from Mickey Mouse.
If it was in the desert, perhaps Bell would have been more survivable. But in the forest, he is definitely not as strong as Xu Wenjie's survivability.
With the help of an animal like Mickey Mouse, Xu Wenjie can quickly find any resource he wants in the woods.
When Bell followed Xu Wenjie to the front of several wild fruit trees, he looked at Xu Wenjie with some surprise, and then was attracted by the mouse on the tree.
Rats that will go up to the tree!
At the moment when he felt magical, Mickey Mouse jumped down from the tree, grabbed a bunch of fruits on his paws, ran directly to Xu Wenjie's side, and handed it to Xu Wenjie.
This scene made him feel weird, and at the same time, he had a new understanding of these animals raised by Xu Wenjie.
Xu Wenjie took the bunch of fruits from Mickey Mouse, picked one and tried it, and found that the taste was good, some sweet and sour, and the water was enough to solve the water problem.
"Yes, you taste it." (To be continued.) )
