Chapter 42: Ancient Survivalist

Luo Fatzi threw the grass stalk in his hand into the fire, and his eyes swept over everything in front of the campfire, including the car, tent, backpack, and knives, the corpse of the three wolves and the wings of the giant eagle placed in the back of the car.

The fat man thought for a while, crossed his fingers and said slowly:

"According to the elements of survival, the first thing a survivor has to solve is four, namely water, fire, food and shelter, which is the basic and premise of survival. After these four elements are solved, the next step is to consider how to easily obtain the above four elements, and be able to accumulate more food, combustibles, water, better living conditions, warm clothing, and better living conditions. ”

"Well, yes, it often says that in the survival rules, you go ahead." Xu Qiang motioned for him to continue.

Then, in order, we should start to prepare in these four directions, including the daily life process should also revolve around these aspects.

First, there is no need to worry about the problem of water for the time being, there is stored water in the car, there is this stream next to the campsite, and there is a big river in the distance, which can be said to be inexhaustible. The only thing we need to worry about is that we have to boil the water before drinking, and we use a little less container to boil the water, or a little small, which needs to be solved.

Second, the problem of fire is the same as the problem of water, and we don't have to worry about it until we run out of six liquid lighters and four boxes of matches at hand. Of course, it also includes a magnifying glass that is not used much. Therefore, in the process of actual survival, we need to master other skills or tools to obtain fire, such as drilling wood for fire.

Third, the issue of food is the most urgent thing we need at present. All we had left was a compressed biscuit and three and a half bottles of rice, which would not last more than a few days. As for the ten pieces of chocolate in the bag, they were used in an emergency, and they belonged to war preparation materials, and they could not be used easily. Then we need to think about increasing our food sources. For example, the three wolf carcasses and eagle legs in the car have to start hunting.

The fourth is the problem of shelter, the place we are currently in is the ridge, the place is relatively wide, although it is a good campsite, and the bamboo forest has just seen roughly, there are no footprints of wild beasts, but we have not looked carefully at the forest, it is possible that there will be beasts over there, whether there will be fierce beasts we don't know. So we need to build a more durable shelter, such as a wood house or a stone house. As for the brick houses mentioned in other online survival novels, with the ability of the two of us, it's better not to consider it for the time being. ”

Xu Qiang saw that Luo Fatzi said so much in one breath, and he was so organized, and gave him a big thumbs up.

"You said it brilliantly and organized. I'll make a few additions.

Regarding the storage of water, we can always use that PVC bucket, but lack a large container for boiling water, we can consider slightly modifying one of the two secondary oil barrels into a pot for boiling water. And we can also learn from the experience of our predecessors in the online novel, learn to fire pottery, boil water, and store food such as all kinds of fruits and seeds, including corn and peppers that we will grow in the near future, all of which require some waterproof and moisture-proof containers.

In terms of the use of fire, we try not to use or use less of the lighters and matches we currently have, but instead to preserve the fire and learn how to drill wood for fire as soon as possible. This is a weakness for both of us.

As for food, starting tomorrow we will have to set traps to catch our prey, and learn how to store food, such as smoking, drying and domesticating animals, which we need to try or master. In addition, there is a good chance that we will have a very cold winter that will last for a long time. Therefore, we have to prepare food in advance, meat is the first choice, wild vegetables, nuts and fruits also need to be prepared. And you just mentioned the three wolf carcasses and eagle legs in the car, considering that they have been left for two days or more, it is best not to eat them, to avoid food deterioration and diarrhea, in the ancient times when there was a lack of medicine, it is still necessary to try to avoid getting sick, just take the skin.

Speaking of fur, we still have to hunt more animals with thick fur, such as wolves, foxes, etc., which requires the two of us to take more risks.

Finally, when it comes to shelters, it is recommended to choose a stone house at the foot of a mountain not far from the water, where there are many stones and it is convenient to obtain materials. So we can build two houses, one wooden and one stone. In addition, the two of us also need to consider a problem, if the snow during the Xiaoice River period is very large and thick, we have to consider the load-bearing capacity of the house, so we have to prepare with both hands, in the process of hunting and looking for food, we both have to walk more into the mountains to see if there is a suitable cave, etc., when the wind and snow are heavy, the cave is definitely a very good shelter, but also to resist the attack of fierce beasts. ”

Speaking of this, Xu Qiang paused to see if the fat man had anything to add, and seeing that the fat man Luo shook his head, Xu Qiang continued:

"These can be said to be short-term goals, while some medium- and long-term goals or plans can only be determined after observation or experience because we know very little about the world. As you said earlier, the current concerns of these four goals are food and shelter. So there's an important piece of work that needs to be done before these short-term goals. That is: if you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools. ”

Xu Qiang stretched out his finger and said a target that surprised Luo Fatzi, which made him stunned for a moment, and then he nodded, looking like he suddenly realized.

Seeing that Luo Fatzi understood, Xu Qiang stretched out his hands and roasted the fire, the night was a little chilly, and he couldn't go bareback. got up and motioned for Luo Fatzi to come along, took out the training uniform and T-shirt from the backpack and put them on, feeling warmer.

Xu Qiang continued: "The so-called 'if you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools', as a survival freak is inseparable from the various equipment you prepare. We already have some equipment with us, but it's only the basics, and when we come into this world, we need to prepare more equipment.

The first step is to make tools that can quickly obtain large quantities of food, such as nets for fishing and traps, ropes for making traps, followed by long-range weapons such as bows, spears, and slings, and then armor and armor such as shields and armor. In the face of those man-eating beasts, we must be able to attack, retreat, and defend, and be able to protect ourselves well. Only by surviving in this world can we truly call it a 'survival freak'!

Then we have to make the most of the resources we have and multiply, such as peppers and corn, we can grow more, we can explore more edible plants. When the time comes, we can give them how to plant them, how to make tools, how to make fire, how to hunt. We must not only survive, but also become the leader of this world, become the prophet of all ancient ancestors, lead them to survive better, and live better, continue the fire of mankind, promote the rapid development of human history, achieve the glory of mankind in ancient times, and achieve the glory of our Chinese nation and the descendants of the dragon, we must be ancient survival freaks! ”
