Live Wilderness Challenge

Everything seems to be going in a good direction.

However, he still did not forget that the one-day journey required by mission one exceeded 50 kilometers.

He made a rough calculation and found that he had traveled less than 20 kilometers in total today, not even meeting half of the mission requirements.

Of course, this is also related to his exhaustion, lack of water, and spending two hours digging a hole.

But, even in his prime, can he really walk 50 kilometers a day?

Chen Xu frowned, and began to think about how to solve this problem.

I don't know if the mission fails, will it trigger an emergency remedial mission.

The last time he was in the snow-capped Alps, he only triggered the emergency remedial mission when mission two failed.

As for task one...

Forget it, just to be on the safe side, don't try it.

After all, every emergency rescue mission is very difficult and life-threatening!

After eating the barbecue and chatting with the audience for a while, Chen Xu went to rest early.

He planned to get up early tomorrow morning, take advantage of the fact that the desert is still not hot in the morning, and he is in good condition, walk a little longer, and then walk a little longer at night, maybe there is a chance to finish it!

The next morning, around five o'clock, he got up.

At this time, it was still early in the morning in America, but it was already close to noon in China.

Many spectators slipped in one after another and began to say hello to Master Xu.

Chen Xu smiled slightly, chatted with the audience for a few words, then took two lizard meats and roasted them for breakfast, so that he could go on his way when he was full.

Before leaving, he filled a pot of water in the ancient well again.

Chen Xu's military water bottle was drawn from the system's prize pool. It is a modification of the most common military 78 water bottle with a capacity of 750 milliliters.

However, he was still a little reluctant.

I finally found a water well, but I could only take away 750ml. I knew that the stomach belt and lizard skin of the desert monitor lizard were all preserved, so I could bring more water!

Chapter 384 The Cause of Death

The main thing is that Chen Xu did not expect that he would find a stable water source, even if the kettle is not full, who would want to make a water bag!

After all, in the desert, a stable water source is more valuable than an oasis.

However, everything is relative.

The more water you bring and the heavier the load, the easier it is to expend more energy and sweat more when you are on the road.

This point is not noticeable on short journeys, but it is particularly important to control the load during long-distance treks!

After packing up his things, Chen Xu started to continue his journey towards the southwest.

The cool temperature in the morning, a well-fed and recharged body, and the hard desert flat land allowed him to walk faster than the city road.

In fact, he can go even faster!

But hiking is either fast or good.

It is somewhat similar to a marathon, but it is longer and farther than it, so it pays attention to the control of average speed and physical fitness.

Before Chen Xu got the system, he was a master on foot, and now he has upgraded his skills to the full purple rare level, so he naturally controls these small details quite well.

Four hours passed, and it was past nine o'clock in Libya.

The sun began to rise, and the temperature in the desert, like an oven, began to increase exponentially.

Chen Xu wiped the sweat from his forehead with a scarf, turned on the kettle again, took a sip of water, looked ahead, and smiled.

The reason why he laughed was that in the four hours just now, he actually traveled nearly 20 kilometers. You know, this is almost equivalent to the distance he traveled in a day yesterday!

If you can continue to maintain this state, maybe you will really complete the required goal of task [-] today!

However, the god of luck will not always be on his side.

What's more, the Sahara is a place called "the land of death" by explorers.

Soon, Chen Xu discovered that the terrain ahead began to become more complicated, perhaps due to the approach to the central plateau, and the road ahead was full of ups and downs and twists and turns.

There are often many complicated cliffs and canyons that require him to cross.

Coupled with the rising temperature in the desert, he dared not walk too fast, so as not to produce too much sweat and consume too much water.

In this way, for the next hour or so, he only walked about one kilometer!

No, if this continues, the goal of 50 kilometers will definitely not be reached!

Climbing up another layer of cliff, Chen Xu grinned, looked at the terrain ahead, and became worried.

Fortunately, the terrain ahead began to become flatter again.

However, the flatter the terrain, the more intense the sun's rays.

Moreover, this desert is still more difficult to walk than the road in the morning, because it is covered with all kinds of gravel, so you need to be more careful to avoid spraining your feet.

Fortunately, he was wearing the top desert combat boots of the U.S. military. The soles have aluminum alloy stabilizers, which are very strong. Otherwise, ordinary shoes would have to be considered whether they would be pierced.

"It's impossible for these gravels to grow out of thin air. I guess they should have been brought over by the desert torrents. Judging from the area covered, the scale of this torrent is not small!"

Chen Xu looked at the landscape and muttered a few words.

We walked for another ten minutes.

In front of him, a white object caught his attention.

He walked over quickly, took a closer look, and couldn't help but shrink his pupils.

It turned out that this white object was nothing but a big bone!

Chen Xu picked up the bone, observed it for a moment, and said, "This should be a hip bone. Judging from its shape and size, its area has already surpassed that of a human hip bone. At least it comes from a large animal. Corpse."

"The large animals that live in the Sahara are nothing more than dromedary camels, Nubian wild asses, eland with sickle horns, Dama deer, etc."

After searching for a while, he found thigh bones, ribs, and a huge skull, and several hoof bones nearby.

Especially the skull, which was formed into an irregular vertebral body, and the surface of the bone was so white that it turned yellow.

As soon as Xu Ye picked it up, there was a lot of yellow sand, which slowly stayed along the two huge eye sockets of the skull, and coupled with its two rows of terrifying teeth, it looked very handsome.

Many viewers prayed that Xu Ye could bring it back and give it to everyone as a prize.

Chen Xu smiled, indicating that this thing is very heavy, and it takes a little effort for him to carry it.

However, he still promised everyone that after he succeeded in surviving, he would buy some animal bone products from the Berber tribe and mail them to everyone. After all, as one of the largest nomadic peoples in the Sahara, they slaughtered at least 200 captive animals every year animal.

At that time, there will also be the skull of an oryx with sickle horns. That thing is much more handsome than this one!

As for the identity of this animal, after seeing the hoof bone, Chen Xu gradually closed his smile, "Judging from the hoof bone, this should be an adult dromedary camel, looking at the two obvious huge toenails, this is a dromedary camel one of the symbols of

"Originally, I thought that the cause of its death was likely to have encountered this desert mountain torrent, or died of a sandstorm or drought. The bones of its corpse were scattered widely. It should have been dead for a long time and was affected by the wind. Yep, that's exactly right."

"However, look at this hoof bone, which still has flesh on it, which is obviously different from other bones, which means that the death time of this camel will definitely not exceed one month, and within one month, unless it is a tornado, it will not Blow the entire corpse from a state of flesh and blood into scattered bones."

"So, I guess, this dromedary should have died of being dismembered! That's right, it should have been chased and killed by a pack of jackals or spotted hyenas, and dismembered."

Hunt?Dismember?

The audience suddenly felt a little shuddering. They didn't expect such a cruel thing to happen in such a desolate place like the Sahara.

"I think the spotted hyena group is more likely. With the character of jackals, they rarely attack beasts as big as adult dromedary camels, and at most they hunt medium-sized animals like antelopes."

"Huh... If it's really a group of spotted hyenas, then I'm afraid we have to be more careful in the next journey!"

After murmuring a few words, Chen Xu threw away the bones in his hands, looked at the road ahead, and took a deep breath.

The next landform has a lot of grass and boulders, and from time to time, there are some thorns and desert cacti.

This shows that this landform has water sources, and the vegetation coverage rate is higher than that of ordinary deserts. It does have the basic environment of the biological chain: desert plants, herbivores, and carnivores, one link after another.

In Chen Xu's current state, he is obviously much more careful than before. Before taking a few steps, he has to observe the situation around him.

And at this moment, a brown-green object in front of him attracted him.

Chapter 385 The Boy Who Digs the Dung

Chen Xu immediately went up and took a look.

"This should be a pile of camel dung!"

He picked up the brown-green round object, smelled it, and said, "The smell is still very strong, which means it was just pulled out not long ago, and it is still nearby!"

When the audience heard Master Xu say that it was just pulled out, they opened their mouths in embarrassment:

"Fuck, why do I feel that Master Xu is so happy when he smells that it was just pulled?"

"Dung boy!"

"Is this just pulled? Isn't it right? It looks like it took a long time to do this? Could it be that the camel got angry?"

"The one who said that the camel got angry, 666, you laughed me to death!"

"Camel: Freshly cooked dung, fifty cents a piece, it's hot!"

Chen Xu looked at the bullet screen, and almost didn't laugh out loud. He crushed the camel dung and showed it to everyone: "This is indeed just pulled out. The reason for doing this is because the camel's gut It's special, so their excrement is highly concentrated urine and dry feces."

"Besides, camels are herbivorous animals, and the feces they pull out are also forage waste, which is much cleaner than omnivorous animals, so you don't have to mind that much."

"In the Sahara, camel dung was considered the best tinder by explorers because it was dry and rich in various forages, so it was easy to ignite."

Some viewers still can't accept it. When they think of lighting a fire with a pile of animal poop, they might as well bring a lighter!

Chen Xu threw away the feces, then looked around, and murmured: "If there is a camel nearby, maybe I can find it, subdue it, and let him carry me on the road. Speed, but also save a lot of energy and water!"

That's why he was so happy when he found out that it was a lump of freshly excreted camel dung.

Just like what he said, if he can really find a camel and subdue him, then there is a great hope of completing the [-] kilometers of mission one!

After all, in the Sahara, camels have the title of "ship of the desert"!

However, when many viewers heard Xu Ye's words, they had doubts:

"Master Xu, if you can find it, let's talk about it first, wild animals are not so easy to tame, right?"

"Yes, Lord Xu, my dog ​​has been disobedient since I bought it for so long, and wild camels are probably more stubborn, right?"

"Hahaha, it all depends on how arrogant Master Xu is!"

Chen Xu knew that the audience would definitely have doubts, so he explained: "Everyone is right, wild camels are indeed difficult to tame, because they are very wild, and unless they are kept in captivity for a long time, it is impossible to ride them."

"However, you may not know one thing, that is, there are no wild dromedary camels in the Sahara. Yes, believe it or not, all the camels in the Sahara are captive breeds of Arabs and Berbers."

"After hundreds of years of domestication and breeding, these dromedary camels have genes for being ridden and raised in captivity. This is just like the principle that domestic pigs are more honest than wild boars and have a higher meat yield. Yes, their nature has changed."

"I don't know why these camels left the tribe. It is possible that the tribe suffered a flash flood and got separated from the camels, or they may have escaped by themselves, but in short, this is my chance!"

When the audience heard this, they said that they really raised their posture this time!

It was the first time they had heard that all the animals in the entire area had been domesticated, not even a single wild one.

For this reason, some people went to search and searched for information.

As a result, as Master Xu said, among the dromedary species in the world, only the Americas and Australia have wild species.

After explaining to the audience, Chen Xu began to search carefully for any traces of dromedaries around the lumps of feces.

The extreme wilderness of the orange epic level endows him with world-leading wilderness hunting skills and knowledge.

In a short while, he found the imprints of several side-by-side dots on the wasteland not far away.

"Look, this is the footprint of a dromedary camel. As I told you before, it is a large artiodactyl, and its two thick fingers are one of its special signs. Let's go along this route. Take a look, there should be a lot of harvest!"

Chen Xu touched the soil of the wasteland.

This land belongs to the rocky desert terrain, and the soil is relatively hard. In fact, it is not allowed to leave traces intentionally. Even if they are left, they will be easily blown away by wind and sand.

It also fully explained that it should have just left not long ago.

Along the way, he searched left and right.
