Chapter 71: Blessings and Misfortunes

Wangcai really wanted to return to the forest he was familiar with, but he was reluctant to get the delicious food, I heard that the animals in the forest, in order to find a little ore with salt, had to travel hundreds of miles, and now there was a ready-made source of salt, Wangcai could only follow Lu Tianyu step by step.

Walk along the riverbed to the west, not far away, the river water will disappear completely, but there are still large puddles on the riverbed, some fish that did not have time to escape are trapped in the puddles, the original area of the puddles is still very large, after the loss of time, only a shallow layer of water is left in the puddles, several fish spit bubbles with each other, if the upstream washes down the water, their persistence will be rewarded, and return to the free life in the big river.

Wangcai stood next to a puddle, looked at the fish in the puddle, yelled and opened his mouth to get one out of the puddle to eat, but before Wangcai could reach the dog to the fish, he was hit on the head by the tail of the struggling fish, and Wangcai ran back to Lu Tianyu's feet in fright, and now Wangcai finally knew that he couldn't do without Lu Tianyu now.

When the fish in the puddle sees Lu Tianyu, it is impossible to see the sun tomorrow, let alone wait for the big water to save his life.

First look at the surrounding no danger, then look at the puddle, reach out and start to catch fish from the puddle, catch one and throw it on the shore, after a while, the shore is full of fish, bouncing and waving their tails, frightened Wangcai straight back. Use a thin vine to string the fish, and after a while, the fish in the 100-meter riverbed were caught clean by Lu Tianyu, there were too many fish and too fat, the largest was more than ten catties, and the smallest one weighed two or three catties, and with a spear, there were more than 50 catties.

There are still a lot of small fish in the puddle, grab a few and throw them to Wangcai, let it also exercise to get used to it, it is estimated that Wangcai has never eaten live fish before.

These fish had to be dealt with immediately, and before they were caught they attracted a lot of flies and mosquitoes, and when they smelled of decay, they would come from far away and lay their eggs on the carcass. The climate of the tropical rainforest is warm and humid, and the eggs in the corpse, in less than a day, turn into white and disgusting maggots and emerge from the corpse.

Lu Tianyu found a clean place, set up a pile of dry firewood, and roasted the big fish with fire after cleaning it, so that the storage time would be longer, and if there was no food to be found, it could also be used to satisfy hunger.

Now Lu Tianyu has no bottom in his heart, how long will he stay in this damn forest, in case he can't get out for a long time, won't he become a modern version of Robinson, this is not the result he wants.

Handle all the fish, the internal organs on the ground attracted a lot of mosquitoes, and the black pressure was even terrifying, and even Wangcai did not dare to approach. The smell of decay will attract more predators, this is not the result that Lu Tianyu wants to see, if a large number of predators arrive here and do not find the prey they want, they will follow the smell of themselves and dried fish to catch up, bringing endless trouble to themselves.

Push the fire to the visceral pile, those mosquitoes who are not willing to leave are instantly annihilated, and dig some sand to bury the fire, the air is full of the smell of grilled fish, I can't stay here, I must leave far away.

Lu Tianyu walked resolutely and simply, taking advantage of the fact that the beasts in the forest had not yet rushed over, he went as far as he could. Carrying a bunch of dried fish and carrying Wangcai along the riverbed, there are really a lot of fish trapped in the puddle on the riverbed, Lu Tianyu only walked a few miles, and saw countless fish struggling in the puddle, and resisted the idea of drying up and fishing, too many fish are not a good thing for himself, but become a burden for Lu Tianyu.

I hope that these fish can attract the beasts in the forest, Lu Tianyu heard the howl coming from the forest, the smell of fishy fish and the smell of grilled fish had drifted into the forest along the wind, and those hungry beasts would not let go of the opportunity to eat.

Wangcai shouted a few times into the forest, just now he and Wangcai both heard a sound in the forest, the sound was not far from himself and Wangcai, but it didn't seem to come from his own area.

As the wind sniffed, he stretched out his finger to feel it in the air, and couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, he was now in the downwind outlet, and the fishy smell in the upwind outlet covered up his taste, and Lu Tianyu was safe now.

Suddenly glanced at Wangcai, just now he seemed to hear the voice of the beast first, and then Wangcai issued a warning, doesn't this mean that his hearing is more sensitive than Wangcai. At the beginning, I didn't pay attention to it, but when I had Wangcai as a comparison, I finally understood that it was no wonder that I rarely encountered danger in the past few days, and it turned out that I had prevented it in advance.

This is a kind of premonition ability to perceive unknown dangers, thinking of this, Lu Tianyu couldn't help but wonder, his hearing didn't seem to be so sensitive before, and he used to be often teased from behind by pleasure, but now Wangcai's footsteps behind him can be heard clearly, could it be because of his reaction after eating the holy fruit.

Lu Tianyu couldn't think of an answer, so he could only blame the reason on the holy fruit, at first he thought that he would not have any reaction after eating the holy fruit, but it turned out that his reaction was here. It's good to improve hearing, and it's good in the forest, but I don't know if this reaction will disappear over time.

No matter what, it is still important to flee for your life, the wind is blowing from the east, and now the beasts from the west have smelled the smell and have already rushed over. Lu Tianyu hoped that the smell of food would cause the beasts to fight, so that he could get out safely, and a group of jackals ran out of the riverbed, turned around under a big tree, and continued to chase east.

This is already the fourth batch of beasts discovered by Lu Tianyu, and he doesn't know how many batches will follow, and he inadvertently poked open a huge hornet's nest, causing the fish in the puddle of the riverbed to suffer completely. The beasts were attracted by the smell at first, and when they came to the riverbed, they found that there were many fish in the puddles of the riverbed, and for a time the riverbed was covered with traces of various predators.

Some pick up a fat big fish, turn around and run into the forest, some because of a fish, fight in the middle of the riverbed, and more are starting to enjoy the free delicious, a more than 2 meters long forest snake eat the stomach is about to burst, can not walk so to lie on the riverbed to rest, did not expect to be swallowed by a more than 6 meters long forest snake into the stomach.

I couldn't stay any longer in the riverbed, so I checked the direction and decided to go north, which was more dangerous than the forest.

Maybe it was the fish in the riverbed that attracted most of the carnivores in the forest, Lu Tianyu walked in the forest for two days with Wangcai, and except for seeing some herbivores, he didn't see any dangerous beasts, which made Lu Tianyu feel very happy. His unintentional actions actually resolved the crisis for himself, and he relied on each other to be a blessing or a blessing.

Wangcai now likes to follow Lu Tianyu very much, constantly running around Lu Tianyu, as long as he is hungry, he will lie on Lu Tianyu's feet, waiting for Lu Tianyu to distribute food to him. Now except for the two ears that are pricked up, I can't tell that Wangcai is a wild animal at all, maybe he knows the reason why he can't go back, Wangcai likes to be coquettish with Lu Tianyu very much.

Lu Tianyu didn't know how big Wangcai was, except that he knew that Wangcai belonged to the canine family, and he didn't know anything about Wangcai's breed and characteristics. It is said that by looking at the teeth of the canine, you can know the age of the canine, but I don't understand these, I just know that Wangcai should have passed the juvenile period, as for how old it is, I will find a veterinarian to see it after I go back.

Dogs are sometimes smarter than humans and can sense danger in advance, which may be the sixth sense that is often said, as some people seem to have.

Wangcai, who lives in the forest, knows how to avoid the dangers around him better than Lu Tianyu, and when Lu Tianyu is ready to continue walking, Wangcai will bite his shoes and desperately stop Lu Tianyu. When Lu Tianyu carefully checked the surrounding situation, he found that there was a trap under his feet, allowing him to escape.

Once, Wangcai yelled at the big tree, but Lu Tianyu searched for a long time, but he didn't understand that there was danger there. When he approached the tree carefully, he found that the protrusions on the tree were actually moving, and when he approached, he sprayed venom at himself, but fortunately, he had taken precautions in advance, so he didn't get hit.

Some animals and plants in the Amazon rainforest, only if you see them with your own eyes will you believe that those animals and plants that should have appeared in science fiction are now alive in front of Lu Tianyu's eyes, and I am amazed to see it, and I have to admire the wonder and ingenuity of nature.

The road will always be finished, the only difference is who is more determined, just when Lu Tianyu felt that the future was bleak, Lu Tianyu heard the sound of the surging river, in his own ears, this is the sound of nature, more beautiful than any sound in the world.

After eight days of walking through the forest, I finally saw the Amazon River, and when I saw the Amazon River, I forgot all the suffering, and when I got home, I could finally go home. As long as you follow the Amazon River, you can go home, and although you don't know how far you will have to go next, you know that with hope you have the motivation to go home.

Wangcai yelled at the crazy Lu Tianyu a few times, and then ran into the distance, Lu Tianyu knew that Wangcai must have found something, and also ran forward with Wangcai, bypassing a small forest, only to see four rafts quietly docked on the shore.

Lu Tianyu didn't know what these rafts were used for, from the perspective of craftsmanship, they should be the tools of the indigenous people in the forest, no matter whose boat it was, it now belonged to Lu Tianyu.

It's not that I can't build a raft, I don't have to be a fool to have a ready-made one, I silently thanked the owner of the raft in my heart, helping others is the foundation of happiness, giving people roses to leave a lingering fragrance, anyway, I have thanked them in my heart, presumably those natives are also very happy, and now there should be no big problem to borrow one.

Lu Tianyu is very happy, really happy, only he knows the hardships along the way, and he can't tell others now.

Wangcai is also very happy, and within a few days of following him, the flesh on this body has grown a lot, and the hair has become shiny. It's not like what I saw at the beginning, it's sad, I haven't seen a coyote before, but I have seen a local dog that no one wants in the town, with gray hair, and it looks similar to Wangcai, just like a lost dog.

Lu Tianyu's hard life was over, and the goddess of luck also came again, tracing up the bank of the Amazon River, and at noon the next day, Lu Tianyu actually saw the shadow of the experimental station on the other side of the river, making him almost cry.

"I'm home, I finally see the hope of getting home", Lu Tianyu didn't be happy for long, his brows twisted into a pimple again, how did he cross the river?

A log was thrown into the river, and in the blink of an eye it was carried down by the surging river, could his broken raft row to the other side? It has not been carried downstream by the river. To make a wooden paddle, forget it, I don't have this skill, and I paddle alone, and the result is almost the same as not rowing, and I can't get to the other side of the river at all.

Lu Tianyu began to feel difficult, trying to find a place where the river level was a little slower, and after looking at it for a long time, he didn't know that there was a place where the river level was slow, no wonder the cannibals on the south bank of the river had not been to the north bank, so how did the Zoe people on the north bank swim to the south bank? His own raft will not be from the Zoe people.

A series of questions appeared in my mind, and after thinking about it for a long time, there was no reasonable explanation, a gust of wind blew, and the woods behind me made a hula sound, and the listeners were distraught.

As soon as the nameless fire surged into his heart, he was suddenly startled, his face revealed ecstasy, his brain was caught by the door, such a simple method was forgotten, and it was shameful to say it.

I found a few wooden sticks, tied them with vines into a huge glyph, and found a lot of leaves with a large surface area, and tied them to the sticks one by one, and a huge leaf sail was made.

Now the Amazon River is blowing an east wind, and the wind is used to blow the raft to the opposite bank, isn't this the way primitive humans crossed the river?

The sails were propped up, and the strong easterly wind whistled the sails, and a force pushed the raft upstream. The sail made of leaves is full of holes, and the thrust generated can barely carry the raft forward slowly, Lu Tianyu grabbed the sail and adjusted the angle of the sail with difficulty, so that the east wind and the sail formed a suitable angle, and the raft sailed towards the opposite bank at an oblique angle of about 30 degrees.

More than a kilometer of the river, it took nearly two hours to reach the opposite bank, I heard Ina joke at the time, such a wide river, she can swim back and forth in half an hour, I don't know if I am bragging, anyway, I can't swim over.

He Wangcai rushed to the experimental station happily all the way, hoping to see the expedition team in the experimental station, even if there were people, but the experimental station was empty, only dark and damp to welcome Lu Tianyu and Wangcai.
