Chapter 111: Looking for water source (four more)

Views:

This jungle is not only primitive, but also dense. We had to step on the path the animals walked out, and walked towards the hillside with tall plants. In this kind of jungle, there are generally two sources of fresh water. One is groundwater accumulated in the soil, and the other is fresh water accumulated in heavy rain.

On the islands, there is another way to test your ability when you don’t find water to drink, but this method is particularly practical.

Only leaves, branches, or bark are required, which is suitable in most cases. People who have the ability to survive in the wild sum it up as: As long as there is sea water, trees, and a fire that can be lit, there is fresh water to drink.

The principle of this method is to pour seawater into the fire pit, put a cup of water in the middle, and then cover the fire pit with a concave cover made of leaves. The heat of the fire pit evaporates the sea water, and the water vapor is cooled by the concave cover and drips into the water cup. In this way, the sea collected in this way is enough for daily drinking.

However, I still plan to find the water source first, after all, the continuous water source is more comfortable than this kind of distilled water!

Generally, where there are broad-leaved forests, it means that there is fresh water, not only fresh water, but also a considerable amount. Walking into the tall woods, I can no longer feel that I am on an island, and I feel like a virgin forest around me.

I plan to set up a makeshift shack. This kind of shack is relatively simple, and it only takes a day or two to build it, but this is not the most critical. At present, the first priority is to find a water source. If there is a cave tonight, it would be nice to barely make do for one night.

The only two auras in my body right now, one is the Qing Ming Sword, it doesn't take much effort to chop some wood. Another strong steel dagger, cut meat and fish, is still more than rubbing.

Ha ha! Walking on the road, sometimes I think, if we can never leave this island, then build a wooden house on the big tree, so that the safety will be greater. Because the ecology of this island now looks very primitive, the possibility of beasts and beasts appearing is extremely high.

Gurgling

I listened carefully, yes, it was the sound of water...

I did hear the sound of water, and I looked back at them. Everyone didn't speak, but the joy on everyone's face was not difficult to see. We quickened our pace and walked forward, rushing to the water source ahead.

Not far ahead, a canal about two meters wide connects the waterfall with one step and one step down in the distance. The water is extremely clear, which makes people very excited. Finding a water source means that the first condition of survival is fulfilled.

On the rock wall next to the canal, a hole two meters high and five meters wide suddenly appeared. I hurried up to see what happened. This hole is embedded vertically in the rock wall and is about fifteen meters deep.

The inside of the cave is much larger than the mouth of the cave, and the cave is about 1.5 meters above the ground. The inside is extremely dry, and there is even a large flat bluestone. We were so excited that we all jumped up.

"I will rest here tonight, and finally there is a place to hide from the wind and rain!" I thanked God and bowed to the cave. I have always respected this kind of cave, and I think it is God's will.

When we entered the cave, everyone was very happy, and the smiles on their faces showed satisfaction. I told them to sit down and rest first, and I went out to make some dry branches to light a fire.

I walked out of the cave alone, and I felt a lot more relaxed when I walked. I folded a lot of dry twigs in the nearby bushes, tied them into big bundles with vines, and carried them back.

On the way, I used a dagger to cut some leafy branches incidentally. After returning to the cave, I could tie them into a broom. This cave is so comfortable that the wild animals in the mountains must have been occupied long ago. I cleaned the cave carefully, and I really found some strange hairs, a kind of ominous premonition, rushing to my heart.

Xiaowan and Xiaoxiao took the initiative to take the dry wood from me. I tied the branches together and let the small bowl sweep the ground. They quickly cleaned the ground in the hole, and took some hay and some large leaves from outside, so they could only sleep like this for a while tonight.

Now it's time to consider how to make a fire. Xiaoxiao took the initiative to build the firepit. She walked out of the cave, picked up a few stones in the creek next to him, and came back. Then in the center of the cave, she surrounded the stones in a small circle and grabbed some small dry wood. The branches are piled up in a circle.

She set up some dry branches in the firepit. We urgently need fire. Only fire can provide a sense of security and food.

Before, when Lu Jianguo and I fought against Guiying, we used a fire bow to obtain wood fire. I planned to draw a gourd in the same way, found a crooked sap, tied it with a cane, and tried several times but failed. On the mountain road I came just now, I saw a large bamboo forest, so I thought about it again.

Drilling wood for fire is based on the principle of friction and heat generation. The wood material itself is relatively rough. When it is rubbed, the friction force will generate heat. In addition, the wood itself is flammable, so it will cause a fire.

I went to chop a dead bamboo. Cut the bamboo out of it, take one of them, cut a gap in the bamboo, put fluff and other combustibles on both sides of the gap, and add this gap to fix it with another bamboo. Put one head against my abdomen and one bite against the ground. I fetched another piece of bamboo and saw it desperately through the gap, fast. About a minute or so, the fluff was smoking. I hurriedly took a bunch of fine hairy fibers, put the sparks in, and blew them lightly. After a while, the whole bunch of fluffs burst into flames. Finally there is fire! This is also the first time I drill wood to make fire!

"There are fish in the stream. I'll catch a few. Let's have a hot cooked meal in the evening." Everyone was afraid of the taste of eating raw fish. After listening to my words, they hurriedly smiled and nodded.

On the way back from carrying firewood, I kept walking up the stream in order not to lose my way. On the way, I saw a few blue trout, tracing back to the source in the clear shallow stream. Before it turns dark, if you can grab a few of them, everyone can sleep with a full stomach.

Along the stream, I came to the place where I saw the trout just now. Those four or five stupid guys were still wagging their tails vigorously, trying to swim back to the source, it is estimated that they are about to spawn.

I caught a few trouts, ran through the gills with grass vines, formed a small circle, and threw them on the ground first.

In this open water, I plan to make a sink, so that the fish have nowhere to enter. At that time, our daily food was guaranteed. This kind of sinking is very simple, like a concave sinking, like a funnel. Use stones to enclose a piece of water in a V shape, and open a gap at the tip of the V shape. When the fish swim in, there is often no way out. I arranged the trap and spent an hour on the phone.

I took a few big fish back home and picked up the timber on the first floor by the way. I used a dagger to cut the wooden strips and cut them into four sections, each with a sharpened end, which was used to pierce the fish for grilling. Xiaowan and Xiaoxiao took the big fish and cut them over there. Soon, the fish will be skewered!

Crackling, crackling, the flame is burning fiercely, and the fish is also grilling on the fire... The aroma is tangy!

After a while, the fish quickly burned out of oil, and small bubbles swelled on the flames. The scent of the fish filled us around, and everyone unconsciously made drooling sounds.

We haven't eaten cooked food in a long time. We divided the grilled fish, the small bowl took over and chewed. I got stuck in the throat by a fishbone, so I spit out the fishbone by knocking her back hard.

The grilled fish was quickly eaten by us. Xiaowan and Xiaoxiao are women after all, and they propose to wash their bodies in the stream. After all, they have been wandering on the sea for too long, and they have a strong smell of sea. Because I am worried about this small island, let me follow to protect it.

Soon he came to the pond, hid in the grass with a shy smile, and quietly took off his clothes. And warned me not to look back or take refuge. I couldn't laugh or cry, but only heard a puff, it was obvious that she had jumped into the water. Hearing another puff, I thought the small bowl also jumped into the water. Just turned around and took a look.

Suddenly, his heartbeat speeded up, and his eyes were blank.

The small bowl was still on the water, she had already untied her jacket, and her slender white back was exposed in front of me. The chest is bulging, and the white limbs are unobstructed before my eyes...
