【Chapter 39】"Coffin-shaped" temporary shelter
In disbelief, he stretched out his hand and held the "special mountain knife" suspended in mid-air in his hand, and the cold and solid metal touch proved that none of this was a dream, and this was indeed a real big knife. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Nima! Can anyone tell me why there is such an outrageous and perverted thing in this world? If the courier companies on the planet master this technology, I'll wipe it! The richest man in the world is not a problem! ”
Jealousy is jealousy, and the work still has to be done. With a knife, it can be regarded as a qualitative change for survivors who survive in the wild. If Wang Xiaotie had such a big knife in his hand in the last newbie dungeon, he might have built a perfect home for leisure and summer vacation! (The ingredient of blowing bi is relatively large!) )
But the price of this knife is also prohibitive. Two days in reality is equivalent to 20 days of survival in this place where the devil will tremble. Even Wang Xiaotie, who has a mysterious mission, will take 10 days. The most terrible thing is that if he doesn't complete the task of cooking bear paws, then Wang Xiaotie will not only get nothing, but also lose his wife.
Wang Xiaotie knew very well in his heart that without a knife, he would not be able to survive in such a harsh environment at all, and as for that damn mysterious mission, he didn't even think about it without a knife. Not to mention how to kill a polar bear, even if a great god puts a dead polar bear in front of him, how can he cut off its claws? Forehead! It's a bear's paw.
The camp built by Wang Xiaotie is very simple. It can be explained by digging a long pit in the ground where a person can lie down, the drop in the ground is the first windshield wall, and the branches on the sides of the body are the second. Resting your head in a tree cavity ensures absolute warmth around your head. There is also a wind wall made of tree branches under the feet. It's the equivalent of putting yourself in a coffin.
Because you have to sleep at night, the windshield doesn't need to be built too high, so you don't need to use very few branches. Wang Xiaotie can leave a large number of branches to build a roof. Cover the windshield walls on both sides with branches and cover them with a thick layer of leaves. Finally, reserve a passage that you can drill into. A simple temporary shelter was built.
It's half past six in the afternoon, but the color of the sky is only slightly darker. The sun did not set and the earth was dark as imagined. Wang Xiaotie immediately understood the reason for this phenomenon.
It is estimated that it is due to its proximity to the North Pole, which has a polar day phenomenon from March 21 to September 23 every year. That is, the whole day is daylight, and even the midnight hour is sunny.
Wang Xiaotie didn't know how far away his place was from the North Pole, and whether the day and night here were really the same as the earth. But that didn't stop him from continuing to build his nest with the help of bright light.
If you want to sleep soundly in an environment of about -10 degrees Celsius, without an insulated sleeping bag and any heating equipment, then the result may be that you will slowly stop breathing in your sleep and will not wake up.
Wang Xiaotie is trying to find a way to make his nest warmer. The first thing that came to his mind was snow.
The Igloo is a unique building for the Eskimos living in the Arctic. They are made of snow bricks of various sizes.
Wang Xiaotie doesn't need to make snow bricks, he doesn't want to build a long-term shelter, as long as he can survive tonight.
So Wang Xiaotie began to collect a large amount of snow, and then covered it around and on the windshield wall, forming a thick quilt.
Stretch out your hands and smooth the surface of the snow wall to better protect against the cold.
It wasn't until around 8 p.m. that it really got dark. Wang Xiaotie finally finished his job.
The makeshift shelter he had built was not pretty, as if a rectangular snowdrift had accumulated under the tree, more like a grave, and it was extremely ugly.
Wang Xiaotie is very satisfied with the fruits of his labor. In a damn place like this, it's a blessing to have a place like this. Now I just hope that I can get up tomorrow morning, instead of really lying in this coffin I made, whimpering for my life.
After eating some berries and hazelnut mushrooms, Wang Xiaotie moved back and forth again, and then got into his coffin, forehead~ is in the hut, lying on the needles laid in advance, and feeling the fruits of his labor.
I have to say that snow is definitely a natural thermal insulation material, especially soft snow, which has a super effect.
Wang Xiaotie worked tirelessly to get a very thick snow around him, which was equivalent to covering a few super soft quilts. The temperature inside is definitely five or six degrees cooler than outside.
Since Wang Xiaotie's head is in the tree cavity, he doesn't have to worry about his breath melting the snow above, so the temperature in the tree hole will be higher than around his body, and he will sleep more comfortably.
This coffin is more than three meters long, Wang Xiaotie is lying in the innermost, the distance from his feet to the exit is almost one meter away, the inside is very narrow, Wang Xiaotie can only lie on his stomach and retreat, rubbing out little by little.
Gradually, Wang Xiaotie felt that the tree hole was warming, and the warm clothes on his body had formed a temperature balance with the shelter he had made. There is no cold feeling in my body either. (Snowsheds must be kept ventilated, ventilated, ventilated.) Say the important thing three times. )
"Ah~ Jinnima is comfortable!" Wang Xiaotie groaned and finally fell asleep.
……
Early the next morning, Wang Xiaotie woke up, and the first thing he did was to move his toes and fingers, and when he found that he was still conscious, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
To say that it is not cold, it is a lie. Such a small nest can only be regarded as just helping Wang Xiaotie save his life.
After struggling to get out of the long hole, Wang Xiaotie began to move his hands and feet, whose consciousness had been frozen, and then ate a little food.
"Fuck up the day again!"
Today, Wang Xiaotie's main task is to find a shelter that can really survive for a long time, food, and of course, he will collect some dead branches and place them in a place for backup.
His first goal was a cave that could accommodate him, as it could easily be converted into a comfortable place to live, and most importantly, he could try to make a fire in it.
Without such a thing as flint, it is not easy to make fire artificially. Especially in such an environment. But Wang Xiaotie had to try, fire was too important for survival. With fire, he really has the basic guarantee of surviving here for a long time.
As for the igloo, you can't make a fire, which will melt the igloo you have worked so hard to build. And in such a cold place, building a simple wooden camp will definitely freeze to death at night.
