Fang Jinyan led the team to conduct a preliminary reconnaissance on the shores of the volcanic lake.

They climbed to a high point and looked out over the entire lake area, and saw that the vast surface of the lake was surrounded by greenery and flowers.

They just felt a little tired, so they stopped here to rest and replenish their water and energy.

"This crater lake is quite big, Brother Fang, didn't you say that crater lakes are generally not big? Could this lake be the exception? Zhang Hongbing looked at the lake below and asked with some doubts.

"The 'not big' he said is relative to the Great Lakes of North America or the big lakes such as Poyang Lake and Dongting Lake, in fact, some volcanic lakes are still very large in the eyes of ordinary people, such as Changbai Tianchi, which seems to have hundreds of square kilometers, that is, hundreds of thousands of acres." Zheng Chen explained for Fang Jinyan.

"It's not that big, the area of Changbai Mountain Tianchi is nearly 10 square kilometers, that is, 15,000 acres, which is almost the size of 1,500 football fields." Fang Jinyan corrected. In fact, according to the information searched in his brain, the record of the number of lakes in China is 9.82 square kilometers, but this number is so amazing that he only said a whole number.

"1500 football fields! It's so big! Zhou Rong said in surprise.

She had no idea about square kilometers and acres, but she still had some impressions of the size of the football field, after all, she had a fever in her brain in middle school and said that she wanted to exercise, and she went to the playground and ran around it twice before she was tired.

"And how big is this lake?" Zheng Chen asked Fang Jinyan again.

"It's almost one-tenth of the long daytime Tianchi, about 1 square kilometer." Fang Jinyan replied.

"That's 150 football fields, well, it seems to be about the same." Zhou Rong still converted it to a unit of calculation that she was more familiar with

"1500 acres. The campus of our medical university seems to be exactly the same area, and it is indeed about the same. Liu Yun also nodded and said.

"It turns out that our school is only 1 square kilometer! 1 square kilometer is so big! Then I would like to ask. How big is the largest lake in the world? Zhu Qianqian exclaimed.

She knew very well how big their campus was, from the southernmost residence hall. To get to the northernmost room, it takes at least a few dozen minutes to walk!

"If you only count freshwater lakes, the largest in the world is Lake Superior in North America, with an area of 82,000 square kilometers." Fang Jinyan said.

"82,000 square kilometers is not 82,000 times the size of our school!" Zhu Qianqian was shocked.

"It's almost 25 million football fields, oh my God, I'm going crazy," Zhou Rong said with a mental calculation.

"Otherwise, how could your team leader say that the crater lake is relatively small?" Zheng Chen said with a smile.

Fang Jinyan didn't know how Zhou Rong calculated the result twice, but he didn't point it out, because 12.5 million and 25 million are indeed no different for ordinary people, anyway, they are very big.

The others apparently didn't do the math. So when he noticed this mistake, Fang Jinyan didn't calculate it carefully, he just thought about it and agreed. The multiplication of 2 significant digits is as simple to him as the arithmetic of the ninety-nine multiplication table.

After a short rest, they are ready to continue exploring the Lake District, looking for a place to live and also need to replenish their food.

Some of the food they carry is stored sparingly in the past, mainly salted fish and dried cassava, which can supplement salt.

Not sufficient, though. It lasts a few days at most, so they don't mind if they can get a supplement.

They walked cautiously around the shoreline of the lake. Probably because of the water and fertile soil, the produce was so abundant that they walked for more than an hour. The harvest is very rich.

They found two nests of thirteen eggs slightly smaller than eggs in the grass, and they were also led by Fang Jinyan. The combined forces killed a roe deer weighing about 15 kilograms.

Then Fang Jinyan caught two more snakes that were more than two meters long, speaking of these days. Most of the snakes were caught by Fang Jinyan, so much so that some people nicknamed him "Long Worm Killer" or "Field Chicken Killer" behind his back.

If you think about it carefully, there are two main reasons: first, snakes are usually very hidden, but Fang Jinyan can always find their traces at the first time, and second, other people are psychologically scared when they see snakes, and even if they make a move, they are not decisive enough, but Fang Jinyan is different, he is almost a dozen and a right, and he is simply a natural snake catcher.

According to Zhou Rong, the snake must have had some grudge against him in his previous life, otherwise why would he be so unlucky

In addition, Zhang Hongbing also caught a partridge, originally birds because they can fly and are relatively timid, and they don't have the right weapons, so it is difficult to catch, even Fang Jinyan can't do anything, but this stupid bird may have been frightened, and when he ran away, he hit the bush layer and was hung by thorns, Zhang Hongbing saw it and hurriedly stepped forward to catch it

Zhang Hongbing was extremely proud: "Haha, I'm too good!" Look at how fat this guy is! It is estimated that there are at least seven or eight taels! ”

"It's a good thing, I've eaten it in a game house before, it's very expensive, it's better than pheasant meat!" Zheng Chen hurriedly followed.

"Of course, it doesn't depend on who caught it!" Zhang Hongjun continued to say.

"What does it have to do with who caught it or not, be careful with your voice, don't attract tigers!" Zhu Qianqian said speechlessly.

"That's it, you're just a blind cat and a dead mouse, and our team leader is really capable of catching snakes." Zhou Rong didn't forget to pat Fang Jinyan's ass when she was arguing with others. In fact, it is also because Zhang Hongbing has a very good personality - or very funny, no matter how he jokes, he will not be angry, if he is also like Fang Jinyan with a paralyzed face all day long, Zhou Rong probably wouldn't dare to do this

"You can't eat grapes, say that grapes are sour, so continue to eat dried cassava and salted fish! Hahahaha" Zhang Hongbing said disapprovingly, but his voice was still much lowered.

"Cut, who is rare that we have roe deer meat to eat today, but also bird eggs and snake meat"

"Okay, don't make a fuss, how to distribute the food will be discussed later." Zhu Pingzhi said.

"Brother Zhu, don't get me wrong, I'm joking with them, I'm not such a selfish person, I listen to Brother Fang, and I can divide it as he says." Zhang Hongbing hurriedly said.

Although he has a detached personality, he is not stupid, if he really falls out with everyone, especially with Fang Jinyan, he will definitely not survive.

"Quiet, everyone follow me." Fang Jinyan, who had been quiet, suddenly said at this time.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Hongbing pinched the partridge's neck to prevent it from screaming, and asked in a low voice.

"Do you see the monkeys up ahead?"

"Monkeys? Where is it? ”

"In the bushes over there."

"There are monkeys! You're so sharp-eyed! ”

"We'll go now."

"Do you want to catch them and eat them?" Zhou Rong asked in surprise.

Although she has eaten a lot of animals these days, she still can't imagine eating monkeys, probably because monkeys are a bit like humans.

"No, they're cunning and they're in trees, so they're hard to catch, but their recipes are similar to those of humans, so where they appear, there's usually food that's more suitable for us humans, so let's go and take a look, maybe we'll find something." Fang Jinyan replied.

The low forest where the monkey is located is in a small valley on the other side of the lake, which does not seem to be far, but in fact, it needs to go around a long distance, and the road is impassable, so it is a little difficult to walk, so it took Fang Jinyan and the others more than 20 minutes to get closer.

However, as soon as he entered the valley, Fang Jinyan immediately showed a rare expression of joy!

"Brother Fang, what's wrong? What did you find? Zhang Hongbing hurriedly asked.

"Look at the trees in front of you, and you've finally found them." Fang Jinyan said with emotion. At one point, he thought there was no one on this island.

Following the direction pointed by Fang Jinyan, everyone looked up and saw five or six "fat trees" more than ten meters high!

The reason why it is called a "fat tree" is because its trunk is so thick and large, the thinnest diameter is 2 meters, and the thickest one is at least 5 meters!

Even though they are more than 10 meters tall, they still look extremely bloated!

"Baobab! There are even baobab trees here! After Zheng Chen saw it clearly, he immediately said with ecstaty.

"So this is a baobab tree, huh? That's great! We are developed! ”

"Oh my God, this is the kind of sacred tree that can be used as a house for a lifetime as long as you plant a few trees in the island country of Oceania?! We're so lucky! ”

"It's not luck, it's our team leader who is amazing! When he saw the monkey, he guessed that there was such a tree here! ”

"It's not that exaggerated, in fact, I was just trying to find banana trees or coconut groves, which was a real surprise." Fang Jinyan shook his head and said.

"Almost, we wouldn't have been able to find this kind of sacred tree without you anyway! It's not that I don't know if there are holes in these trees," Zheng Chen said.

"There must be, the wood inside this tree is extremely loose, and after a long time, it will definitely appear hollow, even if the space is not particularly large, it is very easy to hollow out." Fang Jinyan said with certainty.

"Then we'll pick the biggest one! Then make a treehouse in the sky! Not only will you be able to defend yourself against wild beasts, but you will also be able to sit at home and enjoy the beauty of the Lake District! Oh my God, it's so wonderful! Zhou Rong said excitedly. (To be continued......)
