Chapter 12: Survival in the Wilderness
"Nutrients." Shi Teng threw a small bottle to Liu Peijia, who took it in his hand and checked it, the bottle as long as his index finger, with a black shell, was wrapped quite thickly, "One can meet all the nutritional needs that a person should take in twenty-four hours, and each person has ten." ”
Liu Peijia opened the box and poured it out and looked at it, the transparent plastic bottle, the blue lid was tightened tightly, printed with the Wahaha LOGO, and the colorless liquid inside had been frozen.
The most important part of an emergency survival kit is the 50ml pack, which can meet all the nutritional needs of an adult throughout the day and comes in different flavors...... Green apple flavor, peach flavor, cantaloupe flavor, Laotan sauerkraut beef noodle flavor, there is always one to satisfy you, if you are unfortunate to be in trouble, then drinking one every day can ensure the normal operation of the body, and can also enhance immunity, maintain the normal intestinal flora environment, and at the same time beautify and nourish the skin, relax the muscles and invigorate the blood, treat rheumatoid arthritis and lumbar disc herniation, compared with this top black technology, Red Bull is weak.
Each person has ten nutrient pills in their first aid kit.
Ten sticks of nutrients can be used sparingly, and they can last for 20 days.
"Freezing like this doesn't affect your use, right?" Liu Peijia flicked the shell of the nutrient, and the liquid inside was frozen like glass.
Shi Teng glanced at it, "It doesn't matter, it's the same drink." ”
"Next is food and fresh water." "We're going to have to stay here for at least forty days, so we're going to have to eat and drink at least ......."
Wisdom pondered for a moment.
"Fifty days or more."
"Fifty days is probably not enough, we have to be prepared to stay here for two months, but fortunately we have enough food and fresh water." Stong opened the box and poured out two pills the size of Mai Lisu, spread them out on the palm of his hand, one white and the other red.
The white pill is solid fresh water, all the fresh water in the first aid kit is stored in solid form, can not bite or swallow directly, the way to use it is to take it, holding it in the mouth can provide considerable fresh water, and quench thirst at the same time, such solid fresh water Everyone has a big box, it is a month's supply, if you save some, it is not impossible to stick to two months.
And the red one is compressed food, simple dry food, with 100,000 tons of hydraulic press compressed to the point that it can no longer be compressed and then compressed food will collapse dry food, one is a meal, girls even need to eat half a full food, this thing is extremely unpalatable, although there are different flavors, different colors are different tastes, but in fact, it tastes like gnawing on the soles of liberation shoes, known as Bibido strange beans.
No one wants to eat Bibi Duo Strange Beans, so don't say eat this thing for two months, and you may not be able to eat it for two years.
Compressed food and solid fresh water are used as supplementary reserves for nutrients, and there is no doubt that they will prioritize the use of nutrients, and drink all the nutrients before considering Bibido Strange Beans.
"There are a total of 90 pills in a box of fresh water, three pills a day can be eaten for a month, two pills a day can be eaten for 45 days, and a box of 60 pieces of compressed dry food can be eaten for a month." Stong calculated, "With the use of nutrients, we should be able to last for a month and a half to two months." ”
"Bibi Duo Strange Beans Eat Two a Day?" Liu Peijia showed a disgusted expression, "Old Shi, you can spare me, that thing is like constipation after eating." ”
"Actually, it could last much longer." Ge Zi said briskly, "Brother Shi, you quickly repair the Cassini Station to be able to live in it, and then we will lie in it together and salt the fish motionlessly, and come together to pretend to be dead, pretending to be dead does not consume energy, and there is no need to eat anything, maybe we can hold on for three months." ”
"I'm afraid it won't work for three months." Insight shook his head.
Ge Zi was stunned.
Zhuo Zhi tapped his helmet, his old face illuminated by the light, his expression was very serious, and his breath was covered with white mist on the transparent mask.
Ge Zi understood what he meant.
Suddenly the great fear grabbed her heart, and she could barely breathe.
Oxygen.
Lack of oxygen.
In Titan's nitrogen- and methane-rich atmosphere, oxygen is a non-renewable resource, and the oxygen circulation system inside the Iron Float relies on non-renewable chemical oxygen production modules, which are used for a little less, and the lifespan of this thing is calculated in hours.
Shi Teng was also aware of this problem, and there were only two spare oxygen tanks in the first aid kit, one could be used for 300 hours, and two were 600 hours, plus the oxygen circulation system carried by the Iron Float itself, it was 900 hours and 37 days.
Oxygen is much more problematic than food and fresh water, because the body's need for breathing is much more urgent than drinking and eating, and people who don't breathe for three minutes will burp.
And breathing cannot be paused, let alone intermittent, whether you are sitting or standing or lying down to sleep, oxygen consumption is continuous, and you have to breathe to play dead, unless you are really dead.
Compared with dying of thirst and starvation, suffocation is the most terrible.
Ge Zi imagined the moment when the oxygen was exhausted, she opened her mouth in vain in the mask of Tiefutu, but she could no longer inhale even a milliliter of oxygen, she wanted to call for help but couldn't make a sound, because there was no gas in the alveoli, Ge Zi could only clutch her neck in pain and in vain, like a person about to drown to grasp an illusory life-saving straw.
Their survival time is a wooden barrel, and the amount of water that this barrel can hold is determined by the shortcomings.
Several people stood on the edge of the spaceship in silence for a long time.
"Let's try to fix the air circulation system at Cassini station first and see if we can fix it." Stong said.
This is the only way, Cassini Station is the only shelter in the world, there is no doubt that the large oxygen circulation system in the scientific research station is much more powerful than the Iron Float, if the Cassini Station can be restored to normal operation, Steng and the others can completely get rid of their worries, no matter what happened to it twenty years ago, it is impossible for the crew of the "Hades" to leave it, because leaving it is a dead end.
"Fix Cassini Station in thirty days, or we'll be finished." Shi Teng let out a sigh of relief, and after analyzing it like this, they finally realized how grim the situation in front of them was.
"Can it be fixed?" Liu Peijia asked.
"The premise of repairing the oxygen circulation system is to repair the energy tank, which cannot function without electricity supply." Steng had a headache, "The energy pod is also a nuisance...... How do you start a fusion reactor? ”
"Huh?" The rest of them were at a loss in the face of this sudden question.
"The operating temperature of the fusion reactor is almost 100 million degrees Celsius, and our current ambient temperature is minus 180 degrees Celsius, how do you ignite the fire?" Stong sighed, "I don't know what the fusion reactor at Cassini Station is used for, it may be an instantaneous high-energy laser igniter, I hope it's not broken, it's over if it breaks...... Lighters can't light this thing......"
"Brother Shi!" Dai Yue's voice came from the earphones, interrupting Shi Teng's words, "It's working!" ”
Several people were stunned.
"What worked?" Liu Peijia asked subconsciously.
"Computers!" Dai Yue's voice was very excited, "It's not bad yet!" ”
The crew members standing outside turned around in surprise and were about to climb into the cabin of the "Hades", when they finally had good news.
"Great." Stong was overjoyed and said, "Let's see if we can get it back to working properly......"
Another strange noise interrupted his words, Shi Teng froze, turned his head in surprise, looking for the source of the sound, Ge Zizhuo Liu Peijia also heard it, at first everyone thought it was the current noise in the headphones, but then they found that the sound came from the outside world - it was sharp and high-pitched, from low to high, coming from the fog behind him in some direction.
It goes up and down, and it fluctuates, thinking that someone is singing.
Ge Zi took a step back in horror.
"What's that sound?"
