Section 418 Lop Nur lizards

About 80 kilometers northeast of the center of Lop Nur Lake is the town of Lop Nur. It is the largest town in China, with 52,000 square kilometers, which is almost the size of Taiwan Island and the sea and south combined, and Lop Nur is also the smallest town in China, with a floating population of only about 4 or 500 people. The construction of Lop Nur town is the product of the development of the western region, where there is China's largest potash mine, with reserves of more than 500 million tons, in order to develop the potash mine, there is a road to Hami made of saline-alkali blocks as the foundation, and the road surface is made of salt and asphalt mixed together, and we can be rescued in Lop Nur town. ”

Chen Rui and Bell. Grylls searches for something useful in the car for the rest of his survival.

A knife, an essential thing to survive.

Pulled some cotton wool from the clothes, dipped it in gasoline, and made the best velvet material for the fire.

A flashlight, a bucket of water, an empty water bottle, a plastic garbage bag, a rucksack.

Chen Rui packed these things on a canvas back. Grylls carried the water in the direction of the town of Lop Nur.

Followed by Bell. Cinematographer Simon Reay and sound engineer from Grylls' team, followed by 6 off-road vehicles, 4 desert survival safety consultants, 2 local survival guides, more than a dozen logistics staff, and 2 medical personnel.

Walking on the lakebed, along the way, it is very desolate, with sand covered with salt crust under your feet, and your shoes creaking when you step on it.

"Wait, Bell." "It's a dead bush. This can be very useful for us. In the desert. Because the specific heat capacity of the sand is relatively small, it heats up quickly and cools down quickly without heat, and the temperature in the desert at night can drop below 0 degrees Celsius in a very short time. Many people survive in extremely harsh natural environments and eventually survive. Successfully returning to civilized society depends on the will to survive, and lighting a bunch of warm flames can not only give the survivors some spiritual comfort, but also enhance the survivors' will to survive, which is very important! With excellent velvet, dead branches, dry firewood, you also need some fire starters. We're going to bring some with us, too. ”

"That's right, there are three elements of survival. Food, water, shelter, a warm shelter is very important. "Bell. Grylls said.

The two spent half an hour, collecting some dead branches, dry firewood, and dried leaves, and then continued to walk.

At this time, the sun is getting bigger and bigger, and it is very hot.

My hair was hot, and I was dripping with sweat.

It's dangerous.

Walking in such high temperatures not only carries the risk of heat stroke, but also takes away a lot of water from the body and consumes a lot of water.

The two of them put their coats on their heads and continued to speed up their pace, because, under their feet was a lake bed, very flat, no shaded place, and the little water in the water bottle made the two of them have no time to waste, before the water is drunk, they must have been to Lop Nur Town, otherwise, there is only a dead end, the hot and dry environment makes you a dried corpse.

I continued to walk for more than two hours.

The two found a puddle, the area of the puddle is about a few tens of square meters, and the water is very clear.

"In fact, this water is not drinkable, on the ground under my feet, is a layer of salt crust, underground, is a huge deposit of potash, this puddle is a pit of saltwater, the salt content may be several times higher than the salt content of seawater, however, if there is a chance, we try to get some water, here, every extra milliliter of water, can make you live for an extra second, I have an empty water bottle in my hand, I will fill the empty water bottle, and when the camp is time, this water will be treated into drinkable fresh water." Bel. Grylls said.

Then, fill the empty water bottle in your hand with water.

The two continued on their way.

Half of the desert sun had already sunset below the horizon, and the afterglow of the setting sun was sprinkled on the endless yellow sand, golden yellow, and in the distance were layers of sand dunes, full of desolation and desolation, just like the mood of a survivor in this environment.

There was not much time left for the two of them to shine, less than an hour, and it was time to find a shelter.

A safe, warm shelter is important.

Survival is not only to fight against the harsh natural environment, but also to fight with yourself, to overcome yourself, always keep a clear and calm mind, abundant physical strength, full of spirit to deal with the challenges of nature, so in the process of survival, it is important to be able to get a good rest.

Even if you can rest for less than an hour, it is crucial to adjust your body to a good state.

During the day, the two did not find any food that would replenish energy and protein, in fact, the ground under their feet was covered with a layer of salt crust, and the plants were very scarce, and it was difficult for animals to survive here.

At night, I was only hungry.

Stepping on the soft sand, both of them were very tired.

"Wait, Bell." Chen Rui suddenly grabbed Bell. Grylls.

"Stand back!!"

In Bell. Grylls looked surprised.

Chen Rui picked up a branch and said it in Bell. Less than 1 meter in front of Grylls' footprint, he poked into the sand.

The sand rolled over, and a lizard came out.

The lizard is a Lop Nur man-eating lizard, also known as a "dog-skin-yellow" desert lizard, as thick as a flashlight, and its whole body is covered with black-brown spots, the most terrifying place is that the Lop Nur man-eating lizard is very poisonous, carrying deadly germs, biting teeth with great strength, and it is a carnivore, specializing in attacking sleeping creatures in the dark, such as camping travelers.

With Chen Rui's cultivation of the Immortal Cultivation Method, he received a greatly enhanced perception, and the lizard moved gently in the sand under 10cm, causing a small vibration, which Chen Rui could feel.

After the lizard was poked out with firewood by Chen Rui, it quickly ran away.

Obviously, whether it's Chen Rui or the 'all kinds of food' Bell. Grylls wouldn't have it for dinner, even though both of them would have to go hungry for dinner.

The Lop Nur man-eating lizard carries deadly germs, and the two dare not take that risk.

"I almost had to end this adventure early, see me again in the hospital, or at my funeral, thank you very much!" Bel. "In the desert, the most common and deadly dangers, apart from the hot sun giving you heat stroke or dying of dehydration, are probably snakes and venomous animals. (To be continued......)
