Live Wilderness Challenge

677 Octopus line failed?

As soon as Chen Xu said this, many viewers in the live broadcast room burst into laughter:

"233333, I've never seen anything that can make Master Xu sick!"

"I don't know if this titan konjac is very hungry. If Master Xu can eat it, it will be a miracle!"

"I don't know what this Titan konjac tastes like?"

"Go to the toilet and pour it, pick it up and taste it, it's the taste of Titan Konjac!"

Seeing that someone in the live broadcast room really made him eat Titan konjac, Chen Xu shook his head quickly, "Don't say that this food is not delicious, even if it is really edible, if I try it, the International Union for Conservation of Nature will probably skin me off! "

After chatting with the audience for a few words, he left quickly because the place was too stinky.

And because of the "guardian" of the smell of the titan konjac flower in this area, all the plants have not been destroyed, and the resources are also very rich.

Chen Xu chopped down more than a dozen shrubs, trunks and broad-leaved plants and brought them back.

Then, he used the triangular stabilization method to mark the bases of the four pillars of the shelter with an "X" with two tree trunks, and tied them together so that they would not move easily.

It took an hour for the entire shelter to be reinforced.

Looking at it now, it is about two meters long and one meter wide. It has an emerald green broad-leaf triangular roof, and in the middle is a natural plank bed covered with moss and dead leaves. Except one side is open, the other three sides are covered by leaves. .

Around the shelter, Chen Xu was afraid that the rainstorm would wash out the fire, so he dug a deep drainage channel with tree sticks.

Such an exquisite tree house, even the audience is a little envious.

"Okay, it's getting dark, take advantage of this time, let's go to the river to see how the fishing line is harvested!"

After speaking, Chen Xu put on his equipment and set off towards the river.

The distance is tens of meters, and it takes about a few minutes to walk.

When he got to the river, he saw the vines fluttering in the water, and the corner of his mouth curled up, "It seems that something has taken the bait!"

With a hint of expectation, Chen Xu squatted down, pulled the vine, and was about to enter the water and bring up the stone.

However, the moment he touched the vine, he found that the vine moved away from its original position easily.

Not fixed anymore!

He was stunned.

Because he was afraid that the vines would be floating around and it would not be easy to catch the bait, so he tied a big rock at the end.

But now, the vines have become like this, they must have been disconnected.

"Unexpectedly, in such shallow water downstream, there are fish that can break vines!"

Chen Xu frowned while pulling it out.

I thought that if the vines were cut off, tonight's grilled fish plan would be in vain.

But who would have imagined that the moment he pulled it, there was still the power of resistance in the water to give back!

"A fish is hooked!"

Chen Xu looked happy, and hurriedly increased his strength and pulled the vine.

After a few clicks, I saw a small fish with silver scales, red fins, a wide and flat body, about 30cm in size.

When Chen Xu fished it out, it was still wagging its tail and struggling.

And its mouth was completely pierced by two thorns, no wonder it didn't break free.

"It is a red-finned crucian carp, one of the common tropical freshwater fish in Indonesia, very similar to the Chinese crucian carp."

For this kind of common fish, especially those with obvious features like red fins, of course he can spot them at a glance.

Afterwards, Chen Xu pulled out the red-finned crucian carp, threw it on the ground nearby, then pulled up the end of the vine, and took a closer look.

Through close-up shots, the audience can also see that the end of the vine is broken.

"This position is broken from the fifth fishhook. There are very few fiber burrs that break out, indicating that the opponent is cutting with teeth instead of grinding, and it is very sharp."

As he spoke, Chen Xu frowned, "As far as the downstream water level is concerned, only large freshwater fish fry or small fish with a body length of less than 40cm are suitable for survival, while the fry of general carnivorous and ferocious fish have teeth Underdeveloped."

"A carnivorous fish that can be about 40cm long and has sharp teeth... Pomfret!"

Regarding Pomfret, the first time the audience heard this word was when Master Xu said it during a live broadcast in Guatemala.

Piranha, that is, piranhas!

"Some viewers seem to still remember piranhas. Fresh water pomfrets are close relatives of piranhas. They are not as bloodthirsty as terrifying piranhas, but they are also very ferocious. Their teeth are well developed, hard and sharp, somewhat similar to human beings. Huya."

"It seems that this river is much more dangerous than we thought!"

Seeing that it was getting dark, Chen Xu didn't dare to stay here any longer.

At night, the rainforest is dominated by all kinds of poisonous snakes, poisonous insects, and carnivorous animals.

It is obviously very dangerous to act rashly in the wild in an environment without light.

After returning to the shelter, it was already getting dark.

The time of day and night near the equator is evenly divided, basically half and half, and the rainforest is darker faster than the city because of the dense vegetation.

In other words, it is almost six o'clock in the evening in Indonesian time.

After returning to the camp, Chen Xu threw down the red-finned crucian carp, but it was still jumping on the soil, as if it was still struggling for the last time.

"2333, master Xu throwing fish is like throwing stones!"

"Redfin crucian carp: let go of me, Ma Ma, I want to go home!"

"The Adventures of Little Crucian Carp!"

While the audience was posting barrage, Chen Xu squatted down on the ground, touched the dead leaves on it, shook his head and said, "It's still a little wet, although it can barely start a fire, it will definitely be difficult, so we have to find some Fuel!"

When he said this, he stood up and observed the surrounding environment.

"Master Xu: Get out of the way, I'm going to start pretending... Bah... popular science!"

"666, is it possible that Lord Xu can still find oil?"

"I'm very curious how master Xu can hold so much knowledge in his mind!"

After a while, Chen Xu walked towards one of the trees, stretched out his hand and patted the trunk, "Actually, this is not knowledge. If you know a little bit of knowledge, you know that the trunks of some trees, such as pine trees, secrete resin. In tropical rainforests, this dama tree also secretes resin."

"This resin is easy to burn. During field marches, troops often call it 'solid alcohol', which is enough to show how flammable it is!"

After finishing speaking, Chen Xu pulled out the tracker and scraped off all the exposed resin on the bark.

Then he scratched it a few times with a flint and steel.

Sparks fell on it, and soon a red flame burst out.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Xu immediately took out the sticks and ant nests that he had prepared a long time ago from his backpack.

Thanks to his foresight, he prepared a few dead logs as fire starters before it rained.

Tens of seconds later, with the help of dead wood, the fire finally burned!

Chapter 678 Hunting Preparations

Afterwards, Chen Xu picked some relatively dry dead leaves and branches.

But after all, it was only over an hour since the end of the rainstorm. Once these burning objects were put in, the flames immediately dimmed a lot, and there was also a lot of thick smoke coming out.

"23333, I'm afraid it's going to be cool!"

"I watched this episode, and the fire finally went out!"

"Hahaha, if it really goes out, it would be a shame!"

In the live broadcast room, a group of spectators who watched the excitement were sending barrage and booing.

But Chen Xu didn't panic, "Don't worry, there is resin to support the combustion, the fire will not be extinguished easily, and it is normal for the fire to become smaller and smoke. After all, there are still rainwater in the dead leaves and branches that have not evaporated. , Just wait."

So, tens of seconds passed.

Not to mention, it was just like what he said, after the moisture in the branches dries up, the flames really get bigger.

When it became as big as half a football, it basically declared the stability of the fire.

Afterwards, Chen Xu first cut off a piece of ant nest, lit it by the fire, and put it aside. This was not only to prevent mosquitoes from biting, but also to "cover" the irritating gas generated by it, so he dared to roast it openly. fish.

After half an hour.

The red-finned crucian carp, which was still struggling tenaciously before, has now become the grilled fish with a crispy skin and tender and delicious meat in his hands.

One bite, the fish meat is crispy, tender and smooth, juicy and fragrant, and still steaming.

For Chen Xu, who only ate three bunches of banyan fruit for most of the day, it was no exaggeration, this grilled fish was like a full banquet.

No wonder many people like to use crucian carp to make soup. The meat itself is very delicious without any fishy smell. Even without seasoning, the taste is quite good.

5 minute later.

He sucked the last piece of fish bone dry, and his expression seemed to be a bit unsatisfactory.

This is also helpless, the whole red-finned crucian carp is only 30 cm in size, and after removing the internal organs and bones, there is not much meat left.

"There are ants in the nest, so don't burn the remaining bones and internal organs. After all, we have to find large freshwater creatures tomorrow. For carnivorous creatures, these are the best bait!"

After dinner, Chen Xu chatted with the audience for a while.

At night, the tropical rainforest was much more lively than during the day. Although he couldn't see the surrounding environment, the howling of wild animals from time to time in the forest proved that there were many creatures around.

Thanks to the fact that he had built a fire and had an ant nest interfering, otherwise, at the end of the night, there would definitely be creatures coming to the door.

rested overnight.

On the second day, many viewers got up early to enter the live broadcast room, because the time in Indonesia was one hour later than in China.

It's around [-]:[-] am Indonesian time.

The screen of the live broadcast room was finally updated.

Chen Xu sat on the bed looking haggard, holding the camera in both hands, and said: "Hello everyone, I am Chen Xu, today is the second day I came to Indonesian Borneo to survive, unfortunately, in the middle of the night last night Here, it’s raining again, and it just stopped not long ago.”

As he spoke, he turned the camera around.

Through the shooting, the audience can clearly see that the leaves of the surrounding trees and plants are all covered with crystal clear water droplets, and there are many small puddles on the ground.

"Fortunately, my decision to strengthen the shelter yesterday afternoon was correct. This night, apart from being a little cold, the torrential rain did not break through the roof and pour on me. In addition, there are drainage ditches around, and the fire was not extinguished. .”

When he said this, he moved the camera to the fire again.

Although the flames on the fire had become the size of a fist, they did not go out.

"666, Lord Xu is indeed wise!"

"Master Xu is a dancing prophet!"

"Didn't I say that I'm going to hunt freshwater creatures today, I can't wait!"

Chen Xu looked at the bullet screen, nodded and said: "The heavy rain has just ended, the water level of the river has skyrocketed, and freshwater creatures are active. It is indeed a good time to arrest them, but before that, we must make some preparations."

So, he got out of bed, carried a machete, and came to the jungle around the campsite.

"Everyone knows the task of my challenge this time. I hunt alone a freshwater creature that is no less than three meters long. In Borneo, only crocodiles and large ferocious fish can grow in water."

"Without exception, they are all ferocious carnivores, so my hunting plan is very simple: the big fish eat the small fish, first catch the small fish with simple means, and then use the small fish as bait to attract these large carnivorous creatures !"

In the jungle, Chen Xu explained to the audience while looking at the surrounding plants.

After a while, he came to one of the bushes, which was covered with sharp leaves.

The characteristic of the shrub is that there is no main trunk, and the whole plant is all branches. The tree in front of me is about two meters high, and there are more than 20 two-finger-thick branches branching out from the root. And long leaves.

Upon closer inspection, there are still segments on the branches, which look a bit like bamboo.

"With the viscera of red-finned crucian carp as bait last night, I also need a fishing rod. The plant in front of me is called palm bamboo. It is one of the shrubs widely distributed in South Asia. The branches and stems have good toughness and are very strong. It can be used as a fishing rod, and I can weave a fishing line out of bark, which is better than vines."

"Of course, fishing rods alone are not enough. To deal with large freshwater creatures, especially those over three meters in length, without professional large sea rods and speedboats, it is definitely useless. And I don't have these equipments at all, so I can only make them myself. "

"I'm going to use spears. For thousands of years, countless Pacific island residents and tropical rainforest aborigines are keen to use throwing spears for hunting. It's not unreasonable. It's quick to make, easy to use, and powerful."

"A spear dart is better than a bow and arrow to deal with aquatic creatures. This palm bamboo can be used as the shaft of the spear dart. As for the dart head, I need to find other hard things to replace it!"
