Chapter 275: Advance or Stop, or ...... Call it a day?
Fifteen screens, only one is on, which is simply the only one of the scorpions.
The screen switches, and the face of the fire-lit person is half-lit and half-dark under the light of the fire, but you can still see a relaxed and joyful look.
It's Doligon.
Many viewers were impressed by the elite of the fire brigade, and Guy had introduced him to him at the beginning, and he had a confrontation with a brown bear and successfully escaped.
The drone flew and filmed what Dolligon was doing, and two black rocks were lying quietly on the ground, flint.
Both flints had neat fractures, which were supposed to be one piece, but they were supposed to have been broken by Doligon.
It dawned on the audience that it was no wonder that the fire could be lit so quickly, but it was not known whether it was luck or strength to find the flint on a dark night.
Bi Fang quipped: "It seems that our firefighters are not only good at fighting fires, but also good at making fires." β
With the light, even if it was only a little, the rest of the work was easier, and Doligon wrapped the flint in strips of cloth to make a simple knife, and also began to chop branches to prepare for the nest.
Although he did not escape capture and obtain the initial props, as a member of the national elite fire fighting team, Doligon who often travels in the field has the highest amount of outdoor wilderness knowledge stored among all the contestants.
Extinguishing fires is not as simple as ordinary people think, for the terrain, trees and environment must have a considerable understanding, not simply watering can be, and the protection of wild animals is also one of the responsibilities of Doligon, if you want to protect, you must first understand animal habits, right?
Now that there is fire, you have the confidence to resist the cold, and you don't need to rush the next thing, as long as you take your time, you can always build it.
Naturally, the rest of the people thought the same way, that fire not only brings light, but also warmth.
Unfortunately, they obviously did not have the good fortune of Doligong, and they could only try to use some more primitive methods, such as drilling wood to make fire, but the primitive method of making fire was very difficult to use skills and physical strength, and the selection of materials was equally exquisite, otherwise Bi Fang would not have to explain how to take materials every time.
The geographical environment is different, the plant species are also different, and the materials used in each fire will be adapted to local conditions, and the materials used in each fire will be adapted to local conditions, and the local common and easy to use will be selected as much as possible.
But it's getting late, not only is it difficult to find suitable materials, but the contestants don't dare to leave the drop-off site easily, at least the drop-off point is a safe spot that the program team has explored, who knows if it will be dangerous to run somewhere else?
Fortunately, the weather is still cold, and many poisonous insects and poisonous snakes have not yet reached the time point of infestment, otherwise the night will be even more difficult.
Therefore, a full half an hour passed, and counting Doligon, there were only three players who lit the flames.
It is worth mentioning that Mugallen finally opened the military canned food with a sharp stone, the military canned food is very calorie-replenishing, and after only two bites of meat, Mugallen felt the heat rising from his stomach, and he was no longer afraid of the cold, and then quickly began to dig the pit.
"Dirt pit?" Bi Fang took two glances and understood that the type of shelter Mu Gallen wanted to build was a pit that could hide, "The requirements for pit shelters are relatively high, and they are generally used in the desert, because there are fewer poisonous insects after the soil is dug up, and there are not many cases where you want to use a pit in the forest." β
After a pause, Bi Fang explained: "But in the current situation, it is not a bad way. Because of the severe cold, many places are frozen soil, there are not many insects, and because of the freezing, the underlying soil is relatively dry, and more importantly, digging a pit is much more convenient than cutting branches in the dark. β
[It's worthy of being a deer hunter, there's something]
[The stranger the painting style, the stronger the strength]
γMu Daringγ
The frosted soil was not firm, and the rain seeped into the soil, and some of it froze and sublimated at night, and it was very soft, and a dozen kinds of Mugalen dug pits that could accommodate one person.
It's not deep, the pit gets harder and harder the further you dig it, and the effort and harvest you spend don't know, you only need to be able to lie down at a depth that can completely lay down a person.
Then Mugallen spread a layer of dead branches and leaves underneath, and when he lay down, he spread another layer on his body, and then sprinkled earth on it, and covered it tightly, and he slept like this.
Seeing how surprised the audience, he was worthy of being an old hunter, he was so bold that he didn't even have a fire, so he dared to sleep directly.
Seeing Mu Gallen's dirt pit, the perspective switched to Ji Zuodong's side, and at this time he had already built his own shack, which was very simple, an open hut.
Find two trees close to each other, lean a long pole on them, and lay them out layer by layer, covering dead branches and shrubs to protect them from the wind, and a simple hut is complete.
However, the warmth effect of such a hut is much worse, so Ji Zuodong is still trying to make a fire, with a claw knife, he can easily get fine pieces of velvet, Bi Fang does not doubt that he can make a fire.
And the shelter built by Bono, the first to escape, really caught everyone's eye.
It's actually a hammock!
The 20-meter nylon rope is a fairly long rope, which is used by Bono to make a hammock, which can not only effectively prevent insects on the ground, but also be much more comfortable than sleeping on the ground.
γHammock! I've never slept before.]
[This Ranger can, he can actually think of using a rope like this]
However, despite the benefits, Bi Fang still shook his head.
"If you are in the rainforest, it is undoubtedly excellent to make a hammock, a hammock away from the ground can effectively isolate the moisture on the ground, the rainforest is rich in species, there are many poisonous insects, snakes and ants, and the hammock can also avoid these dangerous creatures.
But this is the forest, or the Rocky Mountains at the end of February, the climate is very cold, even if the hammock is covered with leaves, the warmth effect is limited, just cope with the night is fine, after a long time, the body will definitely not be able to withstand it. β
Bono wrapped a lot of branches around the hammock so that the hammock would not become a few simple threads, and he could catch a lot of dead branches and leaves, but this was not enough.
In cold environments, the first element of shelter is warmth.
"If your physique is not strong enough, let's build a shack honestly, or someone else will come and keep the cold overnight."
The performance of the three escapees is what the audience is most concerned about, and after watching them, the camera is given to the remaining contestants, some of them succeed in fire, and some people try for half an hour, and finally their arms are weak and fail.
But without exception, after trying or not trying to make a fire, everyone began to build their own shacks, basically using local materials, and if it was not possible, they had to build a shed that could block the wind and rain.
The first night was spent by everyone, and when everyone started to sleep, the first day's live broadcast ended here.
In the woods, a transport helicopter is parked on frozen soil, and the cabin is full of screens and people.
"How?"
Bi Fang took off his headphones and looked at Jarrett on the side.
Jarrett gave a thumbs up and admired: "It's amazing, don't talk about the wilderness field, even in other fields, I haven't seen the same explanation as you." β
Commentators appear in many places, whether it is a game competition or a sports competition, it is always inseparable from the voice of the commentator.
A qualified narrator should have two basic requirements, one is excellent professional quality, and the other is to be able to speak well and be good at guiding the audience's emotions.
Bi Fang's former is not to mention, the orange legendary-level wilderness traveler, if this strength is not professional, then no one in the world can say that he is professional.
And the second point is that practice makes perfect, his usual live broadcast is not only to show skills, but also to communicate with hundreds of thousands of millions of viewers.
Wilderness survival has a lot of time on the road, and being able to retain even half of the audience in this boring time is enough to show how powerful Bi Fang is.
If you go to a random place, you can tell the local history, and you can trace the roots of one thing and tell the relevant national stories, even if Bi Fang is not skilled at the beginning, but for most of the year, he is also an old man who sells oil, and he is only familiar with it.
The two are added together, and Bi Fang has no sense of disobedience as a commentator, which can be called seamless.
Bi Fang nodded, it's okay, and then touched his stomach, he hadn't eaten all afternoon, and now he was really a little hungry.
Jarrett also saw it, and moved out a large box containing all kinds of canned food, instant noodles, and instant rice.
There is no way, they have to accompany the players here for 12 days, and it is impossible to let other helicopters send supplies every day, so they have to eat these foods every day.
Bi Fang is also not polite, compared to the ones he often eats in the wild, a box of instant noodles can be called a delicacy in the world.
The food produced under modern industry is not healthy or unhealthy, at least it is absolutely incomparable in taste.
The next day, when the first contestant sat up from the dead branches, Bi Fang turned on the live broadcast, and after greeting the audience, the camera showed the first contestant to get up and move.
It wasn't quite dawn yet, but it was clear that the other party couldn't sleep.
[Isn't it, getting up so early? γ
[It's not dawn yet, is it? What time is it now? γ
"It's about 5:30 a.m. local time, and it's still an hour before dawn." Seeing the audience's surprise, Bi Fang glanced at his watch and said lightly, "The reason why this player got up so early is entirely because he didn't sleep at all last night." β
Didn't sleep?
The audience was stunned.
Bi Fang nodded, obviously he had expected this situation for a long time, and in addition to the people who came out of the monitoring team last night to check the status of the players, he also got up to take a look.
Of the fifteen men, at least three had not slept all night, seven had fallen asleep in the second half of the night due to exhaustion, and two had not moved to be seen, and it was clear that only a few had fallen asleep not long after they had been in the shack.
"The pressure of surviving in the wild is enormous, especially when you're alone and without any security, and insomnia is almost inevitable."
Who has really slept alone in the wilderness unarmed?
The wilderness here is not the intersection of the village, but in the large forest, where you can often hear the howl of wolves when it gets dark.
No tents, no companions, no weapons, not even directions.
Fifteen contestants all have the experience of wild camping, but it is estimated that none of the above three conditions are met at the same time.
Bi Fangneng quickly fell asleep in the wild during the first live broadcast, which is actually a reflection of his strong psychological quality.
Of course, the skills given by the system also give a certain amount of experience and confidence, so as not to be too flustered, otherwise you will have insomnia.
[No, why do you have to consume it if you can't go to bed early? γ
[yes, isn't that a waste of time?] γ
"Because of the cost."
Cost?
The audience was stunned when they heard this word, and faintly felt a little familiar, as if Fang Shen had said it before?
"Of course I've seen it, I used to say that survival in the wilderness is actually a math problem, and you have to consider the costs and benefits of everything you do." Bi Fang pointed to the picture of the first contestant who got up and kept moving his body, and froze him enough overnight.
"What can you do without sleeping at night? Rushing to the night? This is never a good idea, walking at night in the forest is very dangerous, first of all, there is a problem of direction, if there are no stars, you can easily get lost, and the night is also a time for a lot of animal activities, running around, leaving a series of smells, it is easy to bump into and catch up. β
"It's too cold, and if you keep warm by activity, your body consumes a lot of energy, and it's easy to get hungry, so you can only lie in the shack, even if you can't sleep.
These people may not have slept alone in the wilderness, but the truth is still clear, perhaps not as clear as I have summarized, and they also know to conserve as much strength as possible and wait until dawn to explore. β
Only then did the audience understand why the contestants couldn't sleep, but they still had to lie in the shack, it turned out to be to preserve their strength.
The first contestant who woke up moved his body for a while, the sky became cloudy, and after feeling his body warm, he let out a breath of mist and began to look for new materials for starting a fire, he didn't succeed in making a fire last night, his arms were so sore that he couldn't try again, and today he recovered a little, so he plans to try again.
In the faint light, he began to look for suitable materials, and often went to some of the larger rock piles, which puzzled the viewers.
Seeing that some viewers were puzzled, Bi Fang explained: "He is looking for flint, and in the wild, flint can be found in larger rock piles, so the probability of finding it is the greatest." β
As the day dawned and more and more contestants woke up, the temperature in the wild in the Rocky Mountains was completely below zero, and many people just woke up with a handful of hoarfrost on their faces.
Gradually, the audience noticed that two contestants were sneezing.
This is a precursor to a cold.
Many viewers are quite worried, and Bi Fang also has a hunch that maybe someone will quit as soon as this game starts.
But that's where the main thing comes in.
Bi Fang held the thermos cup, his thoughts gradually drifted away, and he remembered his map design, and the placement of the contestants was strictly calculated by him.
How do contestants spend their 300 hours, do they choose to set up camp in place and accumulate survival materials step by step, or do they choose to travel through the wilderness in order to get a higher score?
If you choose to cross, do you choose to deviate from the straight line to find a wooden house 100 kilometers away? Gambling on the supplies inside?
It takes at least two days to find the cabin, but will you be able to make it through?
If he chooses to give up the crossing, will he still be able to compare to the player who chose to stay at the beginning and accumulate for several days?
Fitness, distance, danger, time.
Every step of the player needs to be carefully tested, one wrong step and one wrong step, the first step may be the clarion call for success, or it may be an endless abyss.
Today is the first day the contestants have experienced, and it is also the day they need to make a choice.
"Forward, or stay, or ...... Call it a day? β
