Chapter 138: Even Trolls Are So Showy?
Australia is an independent continent that has been isolated from the rest of the world for many years, and has formed a complete food chain over the course of thousands of years.
Once there are alien species, it is easy to cause ecological imbalance.
To this day, the problem of hare and fox plague has not been solved. After the chemical weapons were ineffective, Australian scientists used mosquitoes, carrying a virus that is deadly to European rabbits, and successfully killed 90% of the wild rabbits, causing the number of wild rabbits to plummet to 600 million. However, the hares are too adaptable, and over time, they gradually develop antibodies to the virus, and their numbers regain again.
The local government had no choice but to encourage people to shoot hares, and many competitions were held to shoot hares, and the rewards for the champions were hundreds of thousands of dollars. Millions of rabbits are shot every year, but it has no effect on the huge base of hares.
Today, the Northern Territory alone is home to at least a billion hares. In addition, there are prickly pear cacti that can be seen everywhere, so for Ye Xuan, food is not a big problem.
He had rested well last night, and now he was lying in the hollow, not at all sleepy, and when he was bored, he chatted with the audience to pass the time, "Because of the humid environment and the plain terrain, it is difficult to find water through plants and terrain, but I can rely on the footprints of animals. There are many hares living in this plain, and they also need to drink water, and if you follow their footprints, you will definitely find water. ”
With the passage of time, the country gradually came to 90 o'clock, and the audience in the live broadcast room began to increase slowly.
"After finding the water, you will eat the hare by the way?"
"Yes, it's a patriarch. ”
"Rabbits don't need to drink water, I've had them before. ”
"+1! I seem to remember that rabbits don't have to drink water. ”
"Whoever commits my HN has a well without a cover. ”
"Thousands of troops and horses will be in the army, and there will be HN. ”
"HN, it's your father, isn't it annoying when it's dark?"
"Obediently, I've been in this live broadcast room for a long time, is it even so showy?"
"The house management quickly sealed the area black and trolls. ”
Ye Xuan's live broadcast room is still hanging on the platform's homepage banner recommendation, attracting new audiences for him all the time. But when the forest is big, there are all kinds of birds, and when there are many people, it is inevitable that there will be several regional blacks and trolls. These people are like rat poop, which makes people feel disgusting, and if they are not dealt with in time, they will soon bring up the rhythm and ruin the atmosphere of the entire live broadcast room.
"Although you guys are very good, you still can't hide the fact that the region is black and trolls, Qiao Xue, block these guys IP and kick them out. ”
Qiao Xue's current job has changed from a contracted editor to Ye Xuan's personal customer service. Even before he could speak, he was already directly in the background and gave these rat a permanent ban package.
Seeing the rhythm of the live broadcast room and getting back on track, Ye Xuan began to answer the audience's questions, "Rabbits don't drink water, it's purely a rumor." Do you think that in such a hot environment, hares can survive only by ingesting water from weeds and leaves?"
"In fact, hares not only have a high demand for fresh water, but also have very high requirements for the quality of fresh water, because their digestive system and stomach are very weak, and once they drink unclean fresh water, it is easy to cause diarrhea. For hares, the lethality of diarrhea is very high. So in the wilderness, the fresh water that hares often drink, people can also drink. ”
Time passed little by little in small talk, and before I knew it, it was more than 2 o'clock in the afternoon.
Although the sun outside is still hot, it has survived the most vicious moment, and it can barely bear it.
Ye Xuan crawled out of the depression, and after moving his sore legs, he spoke: "After resting for about two hours, it's time for us to go, let's go!"
The Central Plains are exceptionally flat, sparsely wooded, and have a wide view that can easily be seen several kilometers away.
The humidity in the air made the plain look like a high-temperature steamer, giving him the illusion that it was about to be steamed. In addition to physical exhaustion, there is also mental torture, and he must always tense his nerves, and he does not dare to relax at all.
Half an hour later.
Ye Xuan, who was walking through the bushes, suddenly had his eyes lit up, and then walked forward quickly.
Among the weeds in front of him, there was a cricket of cacti half a meter high, and at the top of a few broad palm leaves, there were neat rows of fruits, some red and some yellow.
Ye Xuan squatted down, pointed to the cactus and said with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, this is the prickly pear cactus I talked about before. This plant is so tenacious that even a small rhizome can grow back into a large patch. And these small fruits, which are their fruits, are not poisonous and can be eaten with confidence. ”
"You see, the fruit is yellow and red, and yellow means that it is not fully ripe, and there are many sharp thorns on it. The red fruit, on the other hand, is fully ripe, and most of the thorns on it have fallen off. As he spoke, he took out the dagger, carefully avoiding the sharp thorns on the cactus, and specially selected the red fruits to pick, "There are too many yellow fruit thorns, and it is very troublesome to eat, so I only need the ripe red fruit." ”
"Ahh
The red fruit was not without thorns, but less than yellow, and the thorns were so small that they could easily be overlooked if you didn't look closely, and despite his care, he was pricked a few times.
After picking up a fruit and cutting the skin with a dagger, Ye Xuan tasted it, and then said with a face full of surprise: "The taste is really good, sweet and sour, and the juice is very rich, which makes me feel like I am eating strawberries." It's not easy to find water here, so I need to eat more and stay hydrated. ”
There were not many prickly pear fruits, only about twenty, and they were eaten by him in a while.
Ye Xuan did not leave, but cut down the whole cactus, and then began to dig the rhizome, while explaining: "In 2015, the African island country of Madagascar suffered a drought that has not been seen in a century. Local residents and animals rely on prickly pear cacti as a source of food and fresh water to survive the dry season. In addition to the fact that the fruit is edible, their rhizomes store a lot of water. ”
"According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, one hectare of prickly pear cacti is capable of storing 180 tons of fresh water. I ESTIMATE THAT THIS GUY'S RHIZOME WILL ALLOW ME TO REPLENISH AT LEAST 300ML OF FRESH WATER. ”
The audience in the live broadcast room once again launched a barrage ridicule.
"The Australian people are a little funny, it's obviously a good thing, but it's a disaster. ”
"I just wanted to go to Australia to catch hares, and you TM asked me to plant cacti again?"
"I've eaten this and it tastes good. ”
"Damn, I said why was it so hard to eat before, it turned out to be undercooked. ”
"How can this thing be sold? I want to buy some and try it. ”
"+1024, every time I see the patriarch eating, I want to give it a try. ”
"Australian Prime Minister: Come on, come on, you will be the prime minister. ”
"It seems to be sold in the supermarket, so I'll check it out after work. ”
