Episode 47: Eat Raw Snake Meat!
Cut off the snake's head with a knife, peel off the snake's skin, remove the internal organs, and in an instant, a strip of white flesh appeared in front of Cheng Fei's eyes, and he couldn't wait to take a bite of the irresistible temptation.
"Delicious!"
Well, in fact, eating raw snake meat doesn't taste good at all, it's just Cheng Fei's Q-style self-hypnosis method, at least, psychologically better.
Snake meat contains parasites, unless it is a special environment, do not eat it raw, unfortunately, for Cheng Fei, it is a special environment now.
The day is very hot, the night is cold, and the environment in the desert is a great test for people, because in such a harsh environment, physical energy and water will be consumed very quickly.
Dehydration can cause people to suffer from heat stroke, fainting, loss of consciousness, hunger will also bring serious consequences, when a person is in a state of hunger for a long time can not be effectively replenished, blood sugar will be lowered, resulting in brain dysfunction, unable to process the information transmitted by the senses, hallucinations, and even the dissipation of will.
Since entering the Great Desert of the Western Regions, Cheng Fei has not eaten protein-rich food for more than twenty-four hours, and he still has a long way to go, and it is important to maintain his physical strength.
The meat is more delicious, more nutritious, and healthier when it is cooked, Cheng Fei doesn't know all this, but, in front of him, the ground is full of yellow sand, and there are no materials, so he can't make a fire at all.
Therefore, in desperation, he had to make a choice and eat the rattlesnake in his hand raw.
As for the question of parasites.
In the face of survival, it is nothing at all, after all, even if it is really infected, it will not break out in a short time, and after waiting to get out of danger, it is just a matter of going to the hospital for treatment.
What's more, Cheng Fei is not an ordinary person, he is not only physically strong, but also has a strange martial arts such as Zhantian Qi, which can refine all the food he eats, and parasites can also be regarded as a kind of food in a sense, and moreover, it is also meat.
A venomous snake with a body length of less than one meter, without the internal organs of the snake's skin, actually did not have much meat, and soon, Cheng Fei completely solved it. The feeling of fullness in his stomach made him breathe a sigh of relief, and the energy contained in the snake meat was enough to keep him in peak condition for the next few hours.
It's just that he didn't feel anything when he ate it just now, but now after eating, Cheng Fei found that his mouth was full of snakey smell, and he hurriedly poured a few sips of water, but it didn't decrease much, which made him frown.
Fortunately, compared to filling the stomach, this can only be regarded as a small flaw.
Under the rising sun, Cheng Fei embarked on the journey again, at this moment, his whole person looked energetic, and even his pace became much faster.
As time passed, the sun became more and more intense, the temperature became higher and higher, and the distant scene began to become distorted by the overheating of the air.
The Peacock River was still far away, which made Cheng Fei couldn't help but feel a little irritable. Fortunately, he soon forcibly suppressed this irritability and strengthened his beliefs.
For adventurers, faith is very important.
Many times, the extremely harsh environment can make people lose confidence. Just like this boundless desert, you can't see the end at a glance, you don't know where the end is, and you don't know when you will find your way out of here, at this time, despair will breed in people's hearts and make people give up trying to survive.
Once, a man was caught in a sandstorm in the desert and lost his way, this man walked in the middle of the desert for a day and a night, and when the search and rescue team found his body, they found him less than three kilometers from their camp!
It is conceivable that if that man had not given up, but had kept moving forward steadfastly, it would not have been long before he would have been able to return to the camp and be rescued. But unfortunately, he failed to strengthen his will to survive, and for this, he paid with his own life.
In fact, there are many more incidents like this, one by one, one by one, are the most alarming precedents, telling us that no matter how bad the environment, no matter what, don't give up your belief in survival, because hope is often ahead!
Firm belief, Cheng Fei is indomitable.
Breathing, strength, strength........ Unconsciously, Cheng Fei's pace became more and more regular, and the distance of each step was almost exactly the same as if he had measured it with a ruler in advance.
As he walked, he silently estimated in his heart that with his far more than ordinary footsteps, he had walked about forty or fifty kilometers from yesterday morning to now.
Don't think that this distance is very short, in the desert, if you are an ordinary person, I am afraid that you will not be able to walk even a third. In contrast, Cheng Fei's performance is actually very rebellious.
And judging from the map, the place where he landed was about one hundred and eighty kilometers away from the Peacock River, so he had already traveled half the way, and according to his footsteps, he was expected to reach the Peacock River today and tomorrow morning or evening.
Once you reach the Peacock River, the desert survival journey will be relatively simple, at least, the main quest of surviving in the desert for a month will not have to worry.
The hardest part of the game is over.
As he gets closer to the Peacock River, there will be more and more plants on the ground, and as long as he persists, things will naturally get better and better.
Moving forward all the time, near noon, the desert under the scorching sun turned into a steamer again, and the sand on the ground was constantly exuding heat.
Cheng Fei took out the kettle, took a small sip, and after soaking his mouth, he forcibly resisted the urge to drink water and put the kettle away.
After walking some more distance, Cheng Fei found a depression in the sand dunes, where there was a little shade that could be used as a summer retreat for him.
Yes, just like yesterday, Cheng Fei is ready to dodge the hottest stage at noon.
The sand was very hot, but Cheng Fei didn't care at all, quickly dug out a sand pit, lay down in it, and suddenly a cool feeling came from under him.
As mentioned earlier, because the specific heat of the sand is small, it absorbs heat very quickly, because the cool sand underground can absorb the heat in Cheng Fei's body in a short time, allowing him to maintain his body temperature in a normal state.
Lack of water, scorching heat, it is very easy for people to suffer from heat stroke, although Cheng Fei is physically strong, he doesn't want to try his limit in this dangerous environment, otherwise, in such an environment, once he suffers from heat stroke, unless there is an oasis in front of him, there is no chance of survival!
What about a martial artist? If he has not attained the realm of transcendent sanctification, he will not be able to resist the great power of nature at all. Although there is some helplessness, this is the reality.
fell asleep, and by the time the body camera woke him up, it was already more than three o'clock in the afternoon, and Cheng Fei stretched out of the sand pit, feeling very comfortable.
Although, the sun in the sky is still blazing.
Although, the temperature on the ground is still hot.
However, compared to the hottest stage at noon, it has really weakened a lot, at least, with Cheng Fei's strong body, it can already withstand it.
So he set off again!
Whether it is for survival or for dreams, Cheng Fei embarked on the journey again without fear, towards the forward, towards the Peacock River, towards hope..........
