Chapter 78: Survive in the Rainforest!

Xu Dong suddenly felt that he was mentally retarded, and originally thought that about 12 meters tall was enough for him to see in the distance, but when he lay on the branch and looked at the taller trees not far away, he felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

"I can already see the terrain clearly." Xu Dong muttered to himself, stabilizing his mentality, because in this kind of place, loneliness can also make people crazy.

Xu Dong climbed down from the tree, put his feet on the ground, picked up the fruit that had not rotted on the ground, and then ate it into his mouth to replenish some energy.

In front of him was a dense bush, Xu Dong sighed, if there was a scimitar at this time, even if it was a dagger, for him, it could pass through quickly.

But if he walked in like this, he would not have a good place on his body, but he could not help but go in, for this bush was the only way for him to go to the river.

Xu Dong sighed, picked up some rocks from the ground that were still sharp edges, and walked into the bushes.

……

Xu Dong picked up the water and drank it happily. Judging from the extremely fast flowing water and the sight of some small fish and shrimp, this is already one of the cleanest waters.

At least it won't make him diarrhea because of drinking animal feces or rotten plants, which will cause the loss of stamina and survival points to be worth the cost.

Xu Dong looked at the stamina value that had already gone down by two-thirds, and the survival value that had dropped by about twenty percent, and encouraged himself.

Whether it's the environment, the food you eat, or the water you drink, it's no different from the taste of reality. Even the bacteria contained in the water cost him a lot of energy.

"When the War" can virtualize the war to such a point, he expressed his admiration.

Xu Dong gently scrubbed the wound left by the bushes on his body with water, which made him feel more comfortable.

From the gurgling stream, Xu Dong was lucky to find a black stone slightly larger than his fist, and he touched it with a clear sound. Not only is it very large, but more importantly, it is very sharp.

"Looks like we can make a tool." Xu Dong felt that the goddess of luck had finally stopped beside him. After a short rest, Xu Dong planned to continue along the river.

"Quack ......"

"Good stuff." Xu Dong looked back and saw a blue frog lying on his stomach not far from him, and Xu Dong, who was about to leave, had other ideas.

This colourful, cute-looking frog has a frightening name, the poison dart frog.

The back of the poison dart frog secretes a highly toxic neurotoxin that prevents the target muscles from moving, causing paralysis of the target's muscles and breathing, and eventually death.

Xu Dong once saw the local natives kill it on a mission in the Amazon, and then poke it a few times in the skin with small thorns to make a poison dart, and then use it to hunt.

Although Xu Dong didn't know how poisonous this frog was, he saw it with his own eyes and used it to kill a cheetah directly.

Xu Dong remembered that when he came out of the bushes before, he saw some thorny plants, and immediately smashed the poisonous dart frog with a stone, because he was not sure if he would be attacked by it so suddenly.

In order to prevent the poison dart frog from waking up halfway, Xu Dong wrapped it with the huge leaves next to him, and then easily pinched it in his hand, planning to go back to find some thorns, and then use them to make blow darts.

Xu Dong carefully dragged the thorns down, and then rolled back and forth on the body surface of the unconscious poison dart frog, Xu Dong counted them, a total of 12, and then put them upside down in his mouth and bit them with his teeth.

The rainforest, which was originally only about two percent light, suddenly became more sultry, which made Xu Dong's expression tense, because he knew that if he didn't find a suitable place to live, then he would most likely not survive tonight.

Since there is no kettle and other things, Xu Dong cannot take the water away, so Xu Dong does not plan to leave the water source too far, find a place with relatively high ground, and then build a temporary house, so as to avoid heavy rain at night or because of the rising water level, so that he can soak himself in it.

After a while, Xu Dong found a place he liked, because the terrain was relatively high and the surface was not very wet, which meant that there would be no water backing up at night.

Xu Dong then used dry twigs to sweep the ground of rotting leaves, mainly to prevent poisonous insects such as poisonous snakes or scorpions from hiding underneath.

Xu Dong found some Higailong vines from the surrounding area, which is a very resilient vine, and it is a good choice to use it to secure the temporary hut. It took about half an hour to just rip them off.

Then he put the stone he had picked up on the ground, smashed it into the shape he expected, and then made an axe that didn't look very good out of the Higailong vine and the hard wood.

Then, the natural quartz that I had picked up in the water was smashed into powder, smeared on the peeled branches, and rubbed back and forth on it with an axe, and after a while, the blade of the homemade axe became very sharp.

It was this axe that didn't look very good, but it saved Xu Dong a lot of effort when building a residence. Since his tent was some distance from the ground, Xu Dong would not worry about snakes or beasts passing by at night and attacking him.

When he built a place to live, the more important problem he faced when he came down was to make a fire, because there was no flint, Xu Dong could only choose the only way, that is, to drill wood to make fire.

Xu Dong prepared wood chips and a termite nest, and then used shoelaces and branches to make a bow shape to drill wood for fire.

It was easier than drilling wood to make a fire with bare hands, and it took about thirty minutes for Xu Dong to finally light the first fire in his battle.

Xu Dong ate some termites, supplemented himself with some protein, and then covered the termite nest with the flames, thus raising a wisp of white smoke.

The reason for this is because Xu Dong believes that it is difficult for others to see the traces of fire in the jungle, and more importantly, he is trying to smoke away the mosquitoes around him.

Although it is not clear whether these mosquitoes can cause themselves to be infected with dengue fever and other diseases, it can be seen from the previous bites that although they are not much, their survival value has been significantly deducted.

When everything is ready, Xu Dong feels a lot more steady, at least tonight, he will not be eliminated by this harsh environment so easily.

"Looks like the two of them have already met, I don't know if they will survive tonight." Xu Dong glanced at the position of his teammates on Fighter War, and found that the two red dots were actually in the same place, and he was a little expectant for a while.

Xu Dong stretched his waist and put away the stinger, intending to find some food. There are many kinds of things that can be eaten in the rainforest, and according to his own survival experience, Xu Dong is very confident in what can be eaten and what is poisonous.

"Now that the basic conditions have been completed, we have to live a good life next." Xu Dong looked at the monkey passing overhead and muttered to himself.
