(On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the author received a New Year's gift, and the homepage was strongly promoted on Sunday.) If nothing else, it will be on the shelves next Friday. The manuscript has been prepared, and it is waiting to be put on the shelves. Thank you brothers for your support, the author is here to give you a New Year's greeting, I wish you all in the new year, Ou Huang possessed!)

The water level near the shore is shallow, and if you want to completely immerse yourself in it, you have to squat down and maintain this position for a long time, which is a bit unpleasant.

But Ye Xuan didn't dare to go to the deep water area, just now he just used a stone to check the shallow water area on the shore, the entire pond is about a hundred square meters, who knows if there are crocodiles hidden in the deep water area or other locations.

So for the sake of safety, it's better to stay in shallow water.

Even when he was soaking in the pond, he didn't completely let his guard down, and his eyes kept patrolling around.

After soaking for more than ten minutes, he suddenly found that in the center of the pond, a dead wood had floated at some point. When I saw it clearly, I realized that it was a dead wood, and it was clearly a crocodile.

This discovery shocked his whole body, and the cold hairs on his body stood on end.

"it!"

The audience in the live broadcast room only heard him let out an exclamation, and then saw him use his hands and feet at the same time, and his movements jumped ashore extremely quickly.

Back on the shore, Ye Xuan pointed to the crocodile and said with palpitations: "Have you seen it, viewers? In the center of the pond, there is a crocodile." ”

"Judging by the size and appearance, this should be a freshwater crocodile. Australian saltwater crocodiles and freshwater crocodiles are very different, first of all, the body size, the adult freshwater crocodile will not exceed three meters at length, and it is very thin, and there is no comparison with the domineering saltwater crocodile at all. In addition, the snout of the freshwater crocodile is narrow and slender. ”

Looking in the direction of his finger, the audience suddenly spotted the freshwater crocodile.

"Damn, it's a crocodile. ”

"This crocodile doesn't look big. ”

"It's just cowardice, instigation out of a piece of the sky. ”

"Crocodile: Brother, let's go, I'll cut off. ”

"Seriously, do you think the patriarch can anal this freshwater crocodile?"

"Definitely not, otherwise why would the patriarch run so fast just now. ”

"I think it should be, after all, I almost killed a shark on a desert island last time. ”

"I bet on a pack of spicy strips, and the patriarch wins. ”

Picking up the mobile phone on the shore, Ye Xuan looked at the barrage in the live broadcast room, and said: "Whether you can kill the crocodile depends on the situation and environment, as we all know, the bite force of crocodiles is very strong, up to four or five thousand pounds, but their tension force is very weak, a normal adult man can easily hold down the crocodile's mouth, so that it can't open." And this is an Australian freshwater crocodile, they belong to small and medium-sized crocodiles, even adult males are less than 3 meters long and more than 70 kilograms. ”

"If it's on shore, I'm 80 percent sure I can take it out. But if I'm in the water, I only have a 30% chance of winning at most. ”

This is also something that can't be helped, although his physical attributes have been greatly improved, but the water is not his home field after all. The crocodile is more agile and swift than him in the water.

The freshwater crocodile in front of him looks like he is only more than two meters long, and his body is thin, and he doesn't feel more than 50 kilograms. If it dared to go ashore and threaten himself, Ye Xuan didn't mind using it to practice his hands.

In the Northern Territory, it is not illegal to hunt saltwater and freshwater crocodiles, and even the local government encourages people to do so. Because there are more than 150,000 saltwater crocodiles living in the Northern Territory, which are distributed in major lakes and rivers, and hundreds of people are attacked every year, in order to protect the safety of residents, the local government encourages the hunting of saltwater crocodiles, but the size of the crocodile can be hunted, and only adult crocodiles can be hunted. This is mainly to protect saltwater crocodiles from extinction in hunting.

Not only saltwater crocodiles, but also freshwater crocodiles.

A hunter's license is required to hunt crocodiles, and if you don't have one, it won't be too much of a problem, and you will be fined up to a few points if you are caught.

This freshwater crocodile didn't mean to go ashore, and didn't seem to be interested in Ye Xuan, so he floated quietly on the surface of the water, basking in the sun leisurely.

"Australian freshwater crocodiles are different from saltwater crocodiles, and when you find a freshwater crocodile in the wild, it means that there must be other freshwater crocodiles around. Obviously, there is definitely more than one freshwater crocodile in this pond, and I have to be careful not to go into the water easily. ”

"But on shore, I have an absolute advantage, so don't worry too much. At the end, he added.

This pond is formed by the infiltration of groundwater, which cannot be circulated at all and belongs to the stagnant water. The water looks a little turbid and has a light brown tinge, and although a pond of this size already has a certain self-purification ability, the effect is not great, and it is definitely not allowed to be drunk directly.

Ye Xuan took off the kettle on his waist, squatted down and began to fill it, while saying in his mouth: "There must be a large number of bacteria and parasites in the water of the pond. Actually, the safest way is to boil it before drinking, but I am very thirsty now, and I don't have much time to make a fire to boil water. This is where charcoal comes into play. ”

After filling the kettle with water, he took off his kettle jacket and placed it on the ground. Then from his backpack, he took out a few pieces of charcoal that he had brought from the bonfire in the morning, and picked the largest charcoal, which Ye Xuan firmly stuffed into the mouth of the pot.

Then, he took out the dagger and put it on his underwear bandana, cut off a small piece of fabric, and wrapped it around the mouth of the kettle.

Finally, the kettle is placed upside down on top of the pot, and soon there is clear and transparent fresh water slowly flowing out of the fabric.

Seeing this scene, Ye Xuan said with a smile: "Cloth can filter larger particles and parasites in water, and charcoal has good adsorption, which can absorb microorganisms and toxic substances in water." Although this filtration is very rough and the water is still not clean, at least there is no need to worry about diarrhea. ”

In less than ten minutes, the water in the kettle has been filtered.

Picking up the small pot and taking a big sip of water, Ye Xuan couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief and let out a comfortable moan.

A POT OF WATER IS 750ML, AND AFTER DRINKING TWO POTS IN A ROW, HE SUDDENLY FELT THAT HIS WHOLE BODY WAS ALIVE AGAIN.

Sitting in the shade of the trees on the shore, Ye Xuan enjoyed a rare rest, looked up at the sun in the sky, and said: "It's more than three o'clock in the afternoon, there is little point in continuing to hurry, there is plenty of fresh water and food here, it is better to repair it directly here and replenish the condition." ”

"Now that I have enough time, I need to build a shelter first. There are freshwater crocodiles in the pond and dingoes nearby, so the shelter must be kept off the ground. ”

In fact, from a professional point of view, it is extremely unwise to build a shelter on the shore, especially if there are still freshwater crocodiles living in the water. However, he was also forced to help himself, and along the way, there were no trees within a few hundred meters of the vicinity, only a few acacia trees growing by the pond.

On this plain, the predators who threaten him are not only freshwater crocodiles, but also dingoes. They are very dependent on water, and most dingoes do not live more than a kilometre of water.

If you don't set up a shelter in a tree, you are likely to be attacked by dingoes at night.

The audience in the live broadcast room didn't know much about the Australian dingo, and they all posted barrage ridicule.

"Wild dogs are afraid of you attacking them, right?"

"Don't blow or black, give me a dagger, and easily hang wild dogs. ”

"Are you me am?"

"Hey, the dog meat hot pot is not beautiful yet. ”

"Wild Dog: Brothers, run, the patriarch is here!"

"I've always wanted to ask, what's the difference between a wild dog and a domestic dog?"

"The old man has practiced the dog stick method for many years, and it can finally be put to use. ”

Looking at the barrage in the live broadcast room, Ye Xuan said: "If you think that the Australian dingo is weak, then you are very wrong. ”
