Chapter 22 Rich and capricious
This small piece of bamboo appeared in such a timely manner that it would not only bring fresh water, but also use the bamboo to make a fire and build a shelter, saving him a lot of trouble and time!
Ye Xuan took the dagger and continued to beat the bamboo knots as he explained: "The water in the bamboo knots is completely safe to drink, theoretically speaking, the water in the bamboo is cleaner than any fresh water you can find in the wilderness. Of course, the premise is that the bamboo that stores water is not cracked and wormholed. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he found another piece of bamboo with water. After breaking a hole with a dagger, he hurriedly put the kettle up to catch the water.
When the kettle was filled and hung back on his waist, Ye Xuan rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "The problem of fresh water is solved, and the next step is to build a shelter." My plan was to build a suspended wooden bed just like last night. But the hanging wooden bed needs the right branches, which is not easy to find, mainly depends on luck. But now that I have bamboo, I don't have to go all over the jungle to find suitable branches, I can make a hammock out of bamboo. ”
Making a hammock from bamboo is not as simple as a suspended wooden bed, but requires a certain amount of skill.
Ye Xuan stood in place, carefully recalled the video tutorials he had seen on the Internet before, and waited until he was familiar with all the steps and details before he started to do it.
"To make a humble hammock, you first need a stout bamboo. ”
Carefully looking at the bamboos in front of him, Ye Xuan quickly picked out a suitable target. This bamboo is the thickness of an adult's calf, and it is the one he was holding on to.
Quickly walked to the bamboo, picked up the wooden stick and hit the dagger, and began to cut the bamboo, while saying: "When choosing bamboo, you don't necessarily have to choose the thickest one, you can choose according to your height and weight." Anyway, this bamboo is really hard!"
Bamboo is one of the more amazing plants, it is both hard and flexible. Ye Xuan estimated that the bamboo in front of him had grown for at least ten years, and the wooden stick hit the dagger, which shocked his mouth and made his mouth tingle.
It took more than ten minutes to completely cut down the bamboo.
Peeling off the branches and leaves and a large section with thinner ends, the whole bamboo is only a thick pole more than 2 meters long.
Rubbing the numb tiger's mouth, Ye Xuan stared at the bamboo pole and said with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, the next steps require certain skills. ”
"First of all, set aside about 10 centimeters at each end of the bamboo pole, of course, you can also leave a few more centimeters, depending on your height. It is enough to make sure that you can lie on it completely. Ye Xuan said, gesturing with his fingers, and at the same time holding the dagger to draw two marks, and then continued: "Next, cut the middle section of the bamboo pipe and cut off one-third of the cross-section. Then hollow out all the bamboo joints inside. This is done so that you don't have to bend your back when you sleep. ”
Twenty minutes later, he successfully cut a cross-section in the middle of the bamboo pole, and all the internal bamboo joints were opened.
After doing this, he breathed a sigh of relief, took a break, and returned to the work of making the hammock, "Now that the hammock is half-finished, then use a dagger to cut the hollow part in the middle into eight bamboo strips." ”
Cutting bamboo strips is much easier than just now. Stick a dagger into a bamboo pole and hit it with a stick, and you can easily cut through a bamboo strip.
"Is it possible to see the rudimentary shape of the hammock now?" Ye Xuan stretched out the bamboo poles that were cut into seven or eight strips, and suddenly formed a simple bamboo net, "You only need to use vines to pass through these bamboo strips, and completely open them, and a hammock is complete." When making hammocks, be careful, some bamboo strips have sharp cuts, be careful not to get your hands scratched. ”
The rainforest was full of vines, and he quickly found some thumb-thin vines and sat on the ground, wrapped in circles between the bamboo sticks.
As the sun sets in the west, so does the light in the jungle.
Ye Xuan looked at the hammock on the ground, and an unparalleled sense of accomplishment rose in his heart. This sense of accomplishment cannot be described in words, and he is deeply fascinated by it. After more than an hour of hard work, it disappeared at this moment.
"But it's not over yet, the last step is to dig a hole in the middle of the hammock at both ends of the reserved dagger. The hammock is then tied to the tree with vines through the two holes. ”
After finding two adjacent trees and tying the hammock to the trunk with vines, a hammock suspended one meter in the air was completely completed.
"I'll go up and try it first to see if the hammock can hold my weight. Saying that, Ye Xuan eagerly lay on the hammock, shook it from side to side a few times, and found that it was very firm, so he showed a satisfied smile.
The bamboo strips are very tough, much softer than the sticks, so lying on them is much more comfortable than last night's wooden bed. "I'll find some palm fronds to spread on it later, and I'll be able to sleep comfortably tonight." ”
The audience in the live broadcast room witnessed the whole process of a piece of bamboo gradually turning into a hammock in his hands. For a while, the overwhelming barrage was like a surging tide covering up the live broadcast picture.
"666, the show of the top flowers. ”
"It's really awesome, my scalp is numb. ”
"Yes, I learned another trick. ”
"Nima, I actually think this hammock is beautiful. Is there something wrong with my aesthetics?"
"Mom asked me why I was kneeling on my phone again..."
"Upstairs, this word is very quintessential. ”
"Who TM came to help me, I knelt for a day today, and my legs are numb!"
"Damn, how do I feel that the anchor is more professional than the special forces. ”
"Banana loves to drink water, give the anchor 1 rocket--- the anchor watch private chat!"
"After all, local tyrants are rich and capricious. ”
Looking at the rocket rising into the sky on the screen of his mobile phone, Ye Xuan couldn't help but be stunned. This banana loves to drink water, it seems that he is really a local tyrant, and he brushes a rocket to let him watch a private chat, which is simply capricious to the extreme.
"Thank you again for the rockets of the Banana Brothers, and thank you all for the gifts. ”
After thanking him, he clicked on the private message, and the private message that bananas like to drink water suddenly popped up, "Can the anchor give a room manager? I have more time every day, I can help you manage the live broadcast room!"
It seems that this local tyrant has completely become his die-hard fan. As for the request for housing management, how could he refuse. When he was live broadcasting, he couldn't pay attention to his phone all the time, and someone could help manage the live broadcast room, he couldn't ask for it!
Ye Xuan did not hesitate to set up a house management for the banana tyrant, and at the same time typed back: "Then it will trouble the banana tyrant to spend more time, seeing the regional black and brainless trolls, don't be soft, just seal it." ”
This rocket once again brought hundreds of viewers to the live broadcast room. Although most of the viewers left in a hurry after grabbing the treasure chest, nearly 100 viewers were attracted by the live broadcast and chose to stay. So far, the number of people in his live broadcast room has officially exceeded 500!
This is a real 500 people, without a protocol number, all of them are active users, and the barrage that keeps flashing on the live broadcast screen is the best proof. Don't look at the number of viewers of many anchors exceeding 10,000, in fact, the vast majority of them are protocol numbers or zombie viewers, and the actual number is often only a pitiful one or two hundred.
It's unrealistic to become fat in one bite, Ye Xuan clearly knows that he is just a rookie anchor. There is no studio operation behind it, and there is no platform to support it, and if you want to become famous at once, it is a pipe dream. What he needs to do now is to stabilize the more than 500 viewers in the live broadcast room and cultivate them into loyal fans. With these loyal viewers as a base, through their spontaneous publicity, more and more people will watch his live broadcasts, thus forming a virtuous circle.
