Chapter 21: The Witty Saucy Year
Climbing the mountain is a physical job, especially since Ye Xuan is still carrying a backpack of more than ten catties.
He is now very glad for the decision he made before, without those two months of intensive training, it is estimated that he will be exhausted by the time he climbs halfway.
At this moment, Ye Xuan was like a salted fish that had lost his dreams, lying motionless on a boulder on the top of the mountain, if it weren't for the fact that he was still panting in his mouth, the audience would have thought that he had been led. His body was aching, and there was a bloody wound on his wrist, but he had a big smile on his face.
He did, and with his own strength, conquered a mountain.
After lying down for more than ten minutes, Lin Bei felt that he had regained some strength. Slowly sitting up, he struggled to take a few steps forward.
"Oh!!"
Standing on the top of the mountain, facing the cool mountain breeze, the whole rainforest can be seen. This thrill of conquest made him can't help but open his arms and shout loudly, expressing the pride in his heart.
It's not deliberate, it's as if you can't release your emotions if you don't do it. This sense of accomplishment made him cheer from the inside out, and every cell. Even when I first dug up that wild ginseng, I was not so happy.
"That's the beauty of survival in the wilderness, and the joy you feel when you conquer the challenges of nature. This joy comes from the depths of the heart, from the blood, from the adventurous spirit in the bones!"
The audience in the live broadcast room was infected by his emotions, and at this moment, they couldn't wait to join in immediately and experience a thrilling wilderness survival.
After calming down his excitement, Ye Xuan began to seriously look at the environment of the entire rainforest. Behind him, the buildings of Huangliu Town could be faintly seen, while in front of him were rolling mountains and endless rainforests.
In front of him, at the ends of the left and right sides, there were two reservoirs. Reflected by the sun, the reservoir shines like two mirrors. Holding the remote control, adjusting the drone to rotate around, and recording all the surrounding environment in the live broadcast screen, Ye Xuan said: "Ladies and gentlemen, do you see the reservoirs on the left and right? On my left, it is the Changmao Reservoir." On the right-hand side, there is the Tuoxing Reservoir. None of them are my targets, though. My real target was the river about 30 kilometers ahead. ”
"Rivers are vital to the development of human civilization, and human beings have spread to every corner of the world so far. So in the wilderness, there is a law, that is, if you find a river in the wilderness, then you only need to follow the downstream of the river, and you will definitely meet people. And once I get to the river, I can try to make a raft and float down the river, which is countless times faster than walking on my legs in the rainforest. ”
30 km is not too far, but it is different in a pristine rainforest. Fortunately, the terrain between him and the river is relatively flat, and there are no mountains to block it, and it is expected that it will be possible to reach the river in four or five days at most.
After making a survival plan, Ye Xuan looked up at the sun that was gradually slanting westward, and said with a radiant expression: "It is still two or three hours before it gets dark. During this time, I need to build a shelter and build a campfire, and if I have time, I can find fresh water. Time is pressing, let's go, everyone!"
The descent is much easier than the uphill, with the sunny side of the peak being densely wooded and relatively gentle. Therefore, it only took Ye Xuan less than half an hour to descend halfway up the mountain.
Stopping, Ye Xuan took the kettle from his waist, and after opening it, he found that there was no water in it.
"There is no water in the kettle, and it is not enough to rely on a dozen tongue cutters in the backpack. Now that the freshwater problem is imminent, I am considering whether I need to adjust my plan. "The water replenished today has been exhausted through sweat as early as when I climbed the mountain.
The tingling sensation in my head struck again. It was a sign of mild dehydration, and he knew he had to rehydrate as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, Ye Xuan began to look at the surrounding environment, and from his position, there was a low-lying ravine on the left and right. Hoping that there would be water in these two ravines, he prayed in his heart, and was about to act, when he suddenly found that he was holding a bamboo.
Bamboo!
Looking at the stout bamboo in front of him, Ye Xuan was stunned in place, and just now, a flash of light flashed in his mind.
This aura was very important, and it seemed to be faintly related to fresh water, but he didn't catch it.
"What is the anchor doing?"
"Could it be a ghost?"
"Didn't you say to look for water, why are you still stunned? ”
"Damn, the anchor is poisoned by eating ant eggs, hit 120!"
"God TM120, can your 120 drive into the primeval rainforest?"
Seeing that he was stunned and motionless, the audience started a barrage discussion.
"Haha, I'm such a witty!"
Suddenly, Ye Xuan slapped his thigh violently, his face full of surprise.
He thought about it for a long time, and finally figured it out. Aren't these bamboos in front of you just natural water storage pipes?
Bamboo, the plant that helps survivors the most in the wilderness, is not one of them. It is no exaggeration to say that when you are trapped in the wilderness, as long as you find bamboo, then the success rate of survival will increase by at least one-third.
Rubbing his hands excitedly, Ye Xuan took out the dagger and said with a smile: "It's so lucky to meet a piece of bamboo here." Bamboo is the most helpful plant for survivors. It can be used to craft weapon traps, to build shelters, to craft water bottles, and to make fires. Most importantly, it also brings clean and drinkable fresh water!"
Seeing that the audience in the live broadcast room was confused, he explained: "Bamboo grows in a wide range of environments, from cold and arid areas to humid and rainy tropical rainforests. Bamboo has a very high thirst for water and draws a lot of water from the soil every day to grow. There is an abundance of rain here, and the bamboos absorb too much water, which they cannot drain and end up accumulating in the bamboo joints. ”
As he spoke, he held a dagger and struck it on each knot of the bamboo.
"You only need to hit each piece of bamboo with a dagger, as I did, to easily tell if there is water in the bamboo. Bamboo without water has a hollow sound of beating, while a bamboo with water makes a dull sound. There is no water in this one, so let's replace the next one. ”
He tried three bamboos in a row, and when he struck the fourth, a dull tapping sound finally came from one of the bamboo joints.
Ye Xuan looked happy, put the dagger against the bamboo, picked up a wooden stick, and quickly tapped it on the back of the dagger. In just two or three strokes, a hole was made in the bamboo. Suddenly, clear fresh water immediately flowed out of the bamboo joints.
Seeing this scene, he hurriedly stepped forward and sucked the fresh water flowing from the bamboo knot with his mouth.
"Gollum~Gollum~"
For a moment, the sound of drinking water sounded in the silent jungle.
"Whew! it's so refreshing!" Drinking all the water in the bamboo knot in one go, Ye Xuan sighed comfortably, his face full of enjoyment.
"666, anchor, please take my knees. ”
"It's really awesome, and there is no one with this amount of knowledge. ”
"2333, the show of the flowers!"
"Haha, witty Sao Nian, laughing pee. ”
"Banana loves to drink water, and the anchor will be given 1 rocket--- uncle will obey you!"
"Obediently, you deserve to be a local tyrant, and you will send rockets if you don't agree with each other. ”
"Do banana tyrants still lack dog legs?"
"MD, this live stream is toxic. Help me tell Sansao that I can't go back. ”
