Chapter 3 Exploring the Island
"If only there was a cross!" Zhuge Xiaobai shrunk the White House again, looked back and forth at the screws on it, and tried several times with a utility knife, but he couldn't twist it.
At night, Zhuge Xiaobai leaned against the gate of the White House and lit a large bonfire in front of him, although the White House provided a little sense of security, the fear of darkness and the unknown in human bones still lingered in his heart, and Cancer at the moment did not know where to climb.
In the first half of the night, Cancer has been dutifully patrolling in front of Zhuge Xiaobai with big pincers and teeth and claws, and Zhuge Xiaobai fell asleep not long after. By the time he woke up again, Cancer had disappeared.
"Sure enough, it's just a crab, and it's not as loyal as a dog, maybe it can't understand itself at all!"
Listening to the roar of an unknown beast in the distance, Zhuge Xiaobai's heart was full of uneasiness, and he always felt that a jackal or tiger or leopard would run out in the dark, and then eat himself in one bite. So he put away his sleeping bag, and sat down by the fire, adding wood to the fire, and burning the fire so vigorously that the beasts must be afraid of the flames, especially in this dark night.
Zhuge Xiaobai looked up at the starry sky, this Jupiter is very bright, especially obvious, it should be two or three o'clock in the morning, but there is no sleepiness at all, and this hermit crab doesn't know where it went.
"Forget it, let's make some plans!"
In the past, the field development training instructor said to Zhuge Xiaobai that once this situation is encountered, whether there is rescue or not, it must be treated as if there is no rescue. The first and foremost problem of survival in the wild is to survive, and the prerequisites for survival are water and food.
The water can be obtained from the waterfall, and there is no problem with straining and boiling it before drinking any coconut water.
Food is a problem, the coconuts on these coconut trees will always be eaten one day, and these coconut juices do not have any feeling of fullness, that is, they are still hungry after eating.
Zhuge Xiaobai knew that the coconut meat of the coconut could also be eaten, but it was relatively hard and greasy to chew, and he really didn't want to eat it until he had to.
Zhuge Xiaobai wrote and drew on the ground with a blackened branch, constantly marking what he wanted to do......
Early the next morning, the genius was bright, Zhuge Xiaobai carried the enlarged utility knife blade, walked in the dense forest on the island, and cursed as he walked.
"Damn Cancer!"
The dense forests of this island always make strange noises: some like children crying, some like people with diarrhea farting, and some like cats meowing in the middle of the night......
Early in the morning, Zhuge Xiaobai saw the bamboo forest with a telescope at the top of the waterfall, and planned to go to the woods to cut bamboo.
There are really many uses of bamboo, for example, Zhuge Xiaobai urgently needs a bamboo pipe as a chimney now, the structure of bamboo is special, as long as the bamboo is opened, it is a natural pipe. In addition, the water source filter that Zhuge Xiaobai is going to make also needs bamboo charcoal to help.
Zhuge Xiaobai originally planned to use the concave lens of the telescope to shrink the bamboo and pull it back up, but he tried several times without success.
In the end, I had to make myself bigger, become huge, like the Titans, and then pull out several bushes of bamboo and carry them back, and planted them directly on the edge of the waterfall, which can be very convenient for myself in the future.
At the moment when he magnified himself with the reflected light of the magnifying glass, Zhuge Xiaobai thought of the idea of becoming infinitely large, and then finding it back by dripping water in the seawater, but after trying dozens of times, he found that no matter how many times he magnified, the limit was to make himself bigger by about 18 meters at most, and then no matter how irradiated he was, he couldn't change, it should be related to the magnification of the magnifying glass, and the 10x mirror should be the limit.
But the moment it got bigger, Zhuge Xiaobai found that this island was actually very huge, looking into the distance with his height of 18 meters, he couldn't see the edge of this island, but at this glance he was very lucky to find that there were still a lot of animals on this island, such as wild boars, rabbits, pheasants and the like, but the terrible thing was that there were wolves.
"No wonder the ghost cries and the wolf howls at night, it turns out to be this group of guys!" Zhuge Xiaobai really wanted to rush over to solve the group of wolves while he was getting bigger now, but at present, he didn't know how long he could support himself after he got bigger, he was very unwilling, in case he only stepped on a few wolves in the wolf pack, and his time to grow up suddenly came.
"I'm not cowardly, I'm called a scheming and then acting!" Zhuge Xiaobai comforted himself.
At noon, Zhuge Xiaobai enlarged the only compressed biscuit in the backpack, but he sadly found that the ideal is beautiful, but the reality is extremely cruel, because the compressed biscuit that has become larger cannot be eaten at all, although the compressed biscuit looks huge, but it is not hungry at all, it seems that it has indeed become larger, but it still abides by the law of conservation of energy, maybe it is just some kind of unknowable change.
Zhuge Xiaobai picked all the coconuts on the coconut trees, and picked up some boulders on the beach by the way, under his enlarged body, these boulders were like pebbles, and they were all moved to the waterfall by him, and he was bored with those pebbles to build a boulder wall around the camp, so that he could sleep at night with a lot of peace of mind.
The bamboo itself was intended to be used as a bamboo pipe chimney, but after the huge stone fence, he felt that it was completely unnecessary, and the only thing he continued to do now was to burn bamboo charcoal.
Regarding the burning of bamboo charcoal, he once saw the villagers in the mountains burning: it is necessary to make an earthen kiln, fill the bamboo into it piece by piece, seal the top of the earthen kiln in a cauldron, and then paste it with mud, and burn the fire at the bottom to make bamboo charcoal, although the effect and quality are not necessarily good, but at least it is indeed made of bamboo charcoal.
Zhuge Xiaobai made some clay and rubbed it repeatedly, and finally kneaded it into an existence similar to a stove, and stuffed all the bamboo poles into it, but the cauldron was not, so he made the door on the model ship bigger and barely usable.
These things don't look like much, but Zhuge Xiaobai was busy all day, and when night fell, Zhuge Xiaobai's body completely shrunk and turned back to its original state, at the moment when the body became smaller, Zhuge Xiaobai felt like running a marathon for a day, the bones in his body were about to fall apart, he was tired and groggy, and fell asleep directly.
"I'll go, it turns out that the price of becoming bigger is so huge!" This was the only thing Zhuge Xiaobai thought before he passed out.
