Chapter 112: A Stone Statue Floating on the Water
As Kexin guessed, after the heavy rain, the miasma will come out.
However, a few people had the experience of the last time, and this time they did not panic, and there were enough tobacco leaves and shirts wrapped in toner to keep them safe and sound under such a miasma.
All the golden miasma came from this long strip of white sand, and after the miasma dissipated, it was close to noon the next day, and several people smoked two cigarettes to relieve their fatigue.
This time, they just took turns changing the guard to ensure that the campfire burned and the tobacco inside was constant.
So they all rested well, and they recovered a lot of strength.
I guess there should be a lot of animal carcasses buried under this silver sand, or the corpse of a huge prehistoric creature, otherwise there would be no such poisonous thing as a miasma.
If it's a lot of animals, it's not surprising, but if it's just a giant prehistoric creature, then the creature under the beach is several times bigger than the dinosaurs.
And the shape is elongated, Yun Yanuan joked that unless there is a dragon buried in it, no creature can grow so big.
Unexpectedly, a joke made Kexin's archaeological heart flutter, and he even proposed to dig up the sand to see, if there was really a dragon, it would be a great discovery.
This proposal was unanimously rejected by four other people, that is not archaeology, that is suicide! It's strange that such a poisonous thing can be born, and it can be better inside.
Se Ami's injuries were reduced, she slept the most, at this time she was very energetic, others objected, but the heart was pouting, when Se Ami objected, Ke Xin suddenly remembered what she saw in the tent yesterday afternoon, so she snorted coldly, and couldn't help blushing.
Throughout the afternoon, Yun Yanuan made enough square bamboo, tied it with vines, and brought it back one by one. It's not easy for Ami to move now, so she sits there and tries to smooth the bamboo with a knife.
Without a saw, Yun Ya Nuan can only use the crew's saber to repair the bamboo to a suitable length little by little, the bamboo is hollow and has a lot of buoyancy, but Yun Ya Nuan is still ready to use two layers of bamboo to superimpose, so that the bamboo raft is stronger.
Each end of each bamboo is dug with a saber to dig a round hole about five centimeters in diameter, and then use the same thickness of bamboo to cross it, which increases the stability of the raft and makes it stronger.
The ready-made soft vines are roasted with fire until they are slightly weak, and used as a rope, this thing is not soaked in oil, and it is easy to rot in water, but it is still not a problem to use it for ten days and half a month.
The bamboo raft is framed with wrist-thick bamboo, made into the shape of a cage, and the top cover is covered with a parachute cloth to protect against rain, which is where they sleep.
Then I used a saber to cut off a parachute cloth and made a sail out of bamboo, so that if I reached a wider water surface in the future, it would be easier to move forward. 、
Then, according to this standard, the same bamboo raft was built, almost identical, and both bamboo rafts were placed with food to avoid encountering danger and annihilation.
It took them five days to do it all, including enough fruit to eat for more than a week, and a bunch of tobacco leaves. and a large amount of firewood, which was all placed on the bamboo raft at the back.
The campfire was inseparable because they had to drink boiling water in the rainforest, and a large piece of thin, flat bluestone was moved by them to the bamboo raft at the back, and now it seems that the bamboo raft behind them was their kitchen.
With the third eye of the candle and the solar flashlight that can be charged during the day, they don't need to worry about lighting at night, so they don't use the dry wood except for cooking, and try to minimize the number of times they go ashore to ensure safety.
The three bamboo tubes, which are thicker than their thighs and nearly one meter long, are the kettles where they place boiling water, so that they can boil more boiling water at one time, saving time and the use of firewood.
The width of the bamboo raft is only more than two meters, the length is a little more than four meters, and two bamboo rafts of the same size are linked with two thick bamboos and fixed with hardwood pegs, so that in special cases, the wooden pegs can be directly pulled out and the car is abandoned.
Five days of busyness, the bamboo raft was pulled into the water by five people, a few people just stepped on the bamboo raft, they heard the thunder in the sky, the mountain peak-like cumulonimbus clouds piled together.
It was still a bright and sunny day just now, and in a blink of an eye, it seemed that night had fallen, and the bamboo raft went down the river, and soon crossed the range of the silver beach.
Seeing this, Diana smiled and said, "Kexin, you still want to dig up that beach and take a look?" ”
Ke Xin pursed her lips and snorted: "I'll come back sooner or later, dig it up and take a look." ”
Maya asked with a puzzled face, "Are you still going to come back here?" I'm not going to come back in my life, no, I won't! ”
Kexin raised his neck proudly and said: "What do children know, I call archaeology and scientific research, a great profession!" ”
Several people took a closer look at the river for the first time because of the problem of the silver beach.
It's not so much a river as a deep stream, and the water flows so slowly that it doesn't know if it's going to end up in a big river or a lake. However, the depth of the water is not shallow, and when you go down, it is pitch black, and you can't even see the bottom.
Diana tied the large straw basket she knitted to the bamboo raft with vines and put it into the deep stream, which is a technique that she and Yun Yanuan specially learned, making this straw basket is completely for catching fish to eat, with a large mouth and a thin neck and a bulging belly, such a straw basket is most suitable for catching fish.
After the range of the silver sand beach, both sides of the river are dense primeval rainforest, straight tall trees grow on the bank or obliquely, and meet together more than ten meters above the river surface, forming a green tree hole.
Heavy rain poured down, and it was estimated that it would take a long time for such a large number of cumulonimbus clouds, but because of the presence of these tree canopies, not many raindrops were missed, which surprised them.
If this is the environment all the way, then they don't have to be afraid of the noon sun, the temperature on the river is already cooler than on the land, and with these trees, several people actually feel a little cooler for the first time.
This makes them feel a little strange, it stands to reason that in the rainforest, it is difficult to know what is cool, or whether you can tie a steel helmet with a tree vine and scoop up the water of the half-steel helmet in the river.
put his hand into the water, and his mouth couldn't help but wow, and he took out his hand and shook it vigorously: "No wonder it's so cool here, it turns out that the river here is very cold!" It seems that the river is made up of underground springs, otherwise it would definitely not be so cool. ”
"Report to the captain, report to the captain, there's something across the water ahead, please slow down!" Diana sat in front of the bamboo raft, always looking at the sky-shading corridor formed by trees in front of her, and naturally noticed the foreign object on the river surface for the first time.
Yunya Nuanyun looked at it with all his eyes, it was a blue-black thing, and when he got closer, he could already tell that it was a statue, and it looked like it was carved in stone, but how could the stone float on the water???
