Six Principles of Desert Survival:

1. Drink enough water, bring enough water, and learn to find water;

2. To "walk at night", do not act under the scorching sun;

3. Before leaving, be sure to inform yourself of the route you are going, the date of departure and arrival;

4. Leave marks in the process of advancing so that rescuers can find them;

5. Learn how to find food;

6. Learn various ways to send distress signals. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

In fact, in the desert, the most common plant is the cactus. They are almost everywhere and look tender and juicy.

However, Wang Xiaotie understands that most species of cacti contain toxins, and only a few types can be eaten. He didn't want to risk poisoning and taste the giant cactus that looked like it had quenched his thirst.

Until he could no longer hold purslane leaves in his stomach, Wang Xiaotie finally stopped feeling thirsty. On the contrary, he unexpectedly burped a few times, which shows how much purslane he has eaten.

Leaning against a huge rock, Wang Xiaotie threw the cushion on Xiangzi's body on the sand, looking for a comfortable position, and fell asleep beautifully.

Wang Xiaotie is so unscrupulous and unscrupulous, mainly because this Gobi region is too barren, so barren that there is no trace of animals surviving. In addition, it was daytime, and the scorching sun had begun to radiate its power, and those dangerous animals were hiding and resting.

Animals in the desert almost all follow the law of sunrise and sunrise, and almost no animals like to play in the desert under the scorching sun.

So it's a wise decision for survivors to choose to sleep during the day. At night and early in the morning, you should be careful if there are any uninvited guests around to prevent any unnecessary dangers.

……

Another long day passed, and when Wang Xiaotie got up, the sun was about to set. The temperature around me has gradually changed from scorching hot to lukewarm, which is the most comfortable temperature for humans.

The dry firewood collected during the day was tied up with woven bark, and then put it on Xiangzi's body mercilessly. Wang Xiaotie also sat down with him and began an aimless journey to the desert.

Where to come from and where to go? Wang Xiaotie had no concept at all. He didn't have a satellite map and didn't know exactly where the oasis was in the mission. can only rely on Xiangzi and take him aimlessly in the desert.

said that it was aimless, but in fact, Wang Xiaotie was heading due north. The reason is simple, it's cold in the north.

It's easiest to get lost in the desert. Especially when walking in the desert on foot, the surrounding sand dunes look almost the same, and there is no reference to give you directions.

Often people walk and walk, they will be surprised to find that they have returned to the same place.

When you look blankly at the familiar footprints in front of you, your heart must be broken. Don't be superstitious about what the hell is hitting the wall, in fact, this is just a very normal phenomenon.

Some scholars have come to an interesting conclusion that people do not have the same muscles in their left and right legs, and generally the right leg of a right-handed person is stronger than the left leg. Of course, in the absence of any references, the right foot is obviously a larger step than the left foot.

This situation is the same as when people row boats on the sea and always circle around, but at sea it is because the muscles of the right hand are stronger than the left hand.

Of course, some scholars say that because of the influence of the geostrophic deflection force, the direction of motion of horizontally moving objects on the surface will be deflected, with the northern hemisphere deflecting to the right and the southern hemisphere deflecting to the left.

Whatever the reason, the truth is that you can't go in a straight direction without finding a reference.

Wang Xiaotie rested during the day and traveled at night. So the North Star in the sky became his best guiding sign.

The way to find the North Star is a very simple and practical way. If you don't know which one is the North Star, then you can find the location of the North Star by looking for the Big Dipper.

The Big Dipper is part of the constellation Ursa Major, and the North Star is found by connecting the two stars at the mouth of the bucket and extending about 5 times in the direction of the mouth. And the North Star is always in the direction of due north. (Scientific research has shown that there is only an error of more than 1 degree)

Most of the weather in the desert is clear, so you can see the stars almost every night. Of course, if you are unlucky and catch a cloudy day, then I advise you not to rush to the road. When the sun rises, use the sun to discern your direction and then consider whether or not to continue on your way.

……

Wang Xiaotie felt that he had made a very stupid decision, that is, to leave the Gobi region with confidence.

Now he's finally tasted the consequences. The fiery sun was already hanging high overhead, but Wang Xiaotie had not found a place to rest.

Not to mention big rocks, not even a small sapling. Along the way, in addition to sand, it is still sand.

Although Wang Xiaotie knew that he could not go any further, the problem was that he could not find a place to stop.

Maybe he was finally going to taste the true power of the desert, and there was no way around it. There was nothing wrong with his physical strength, after all, he was just sitting on Shoko. The biggest problem is that he doesn't have a drop of water on him right now.

"This is to force Lao Tzu to death!" Wang Xiaotie's lips were already chapped, and what made Wang Xiaotie most uncomfortable was that his face had begun to peel, which was a mild sunburn.

Holding back the distress, Wang Xiaotie exchanged a can of water from the game store again, took a sip gently, and moistened his thirsty lips. Then he carefully put it away again.

Gently pulling the reins, Wang Xiaotie got off Xiangzi, and then began to take off his pants with a sad face.

Don't get me wrong, he's not a pervert, he's an exhibitionist, but he's trying to fend off the desert sun.

"Lao Tzu thought that relying on Lao Tzu's uncontrollable luck, he would not be able to go this far. Damn, I didn't expect the world to be impermanent. Fortunately, there is no one around, or it will be a loss of death! ”

Wang Xiaotie's approach is to take off his underwear and put it on his head. It sounds funny, but it's a very effective way to protect yourself from the sun.

In the heat of the desert, if you don't have a hat or other cloth to cover your scalp and skin, you can get sunburned.

The most important thing is the scalp, according to statistics, the capillary blood pores on the bald scalp account for 50% of the external heat absorbed by the human body.

In other words, as long as you wrap your head well, you will save at least half of the water you get from the desert. This means you'll be able to stay in the desert for a lot longer.
