Live Wilderness Challenge

"Besides, I still need a source of water. My throat has started to dry out. This is a very bad sign. It means that my body cavity has begun to lack water. There is a mound in front of me. Maybe I can climb it and borrow high-speed water. Take a look at the surrounding terrain."

After the words fell, he began to move towards the high protruding mound in front of him.

The Serengeti is located in the southern part of Kenya's Northeast Rift Valley and extends to the northwestern part of the Republic of Tanzania.

So the further you go south, the more uneven the terrain becomes.

In less than 10 minutes, Chen Xu came to the bottom of the mound and began to climb up.

At the top, he looked down at the surrounding East African grassland terrain.

Finally, he pointed to the southwest and said pleasantly: "Look, everyone, there seems to be a blue mountain belt in the farthest distance, maybe the end of the Great Rift Valley in East Africa. This is our survival direction, which is different from ordinary survival routes." The difference towards low-lying areas is that in Africa, people generally live in high-lying mountains and plateaus."

"Because the climate there is cool, and it is backed by the upstream of the water source, there is no need to worry about the river drying up due to the dry season, so we must head there; before that, everyone will look at the withered and yellow gully closest to us."

"It's a dry riverbed, but as long as it's a riverbed, there's likely to be a source of water. Let's look there first. Maybe if we're lucky, we'll find a source of water!"

Having figured out the direction of survival and found the source of water, Chen Xu was full of hope.

He quickly climbed down the hill, and then walked towards the river bed ahead.

The time is getting closer and closer to noon, the sun is rising higher and higher, and the vertical sunlight is pouring down, like a huge oven.

Chen Xu grinned, sweating for a long time and not eating, already made his body weak.

And just when he was worried, a cave in the mound ahead attracted him.

Chapter 171

Seeing the cave, Chen Xu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But when he reached the entrance of the cave, he stopped.

"It is undoubtedly lucky to be able to encounter this kind of cave in such a hot weather, but before we go in, we must check it carefully, and don't go in directly, in case there is a large beast in the cool, we Maybe it's dead!"

As he said that, Chen Xu found a stone around him, and threw it directly along the entrance of the cave.

After waiting for a while, he didn't hear any sound, and then he walked into the cave.

The space inside the cave is very large, at least 20 square meters, and the surrounding area and even the roof are made of loess and rocks.

At this moment, a scorpion with a black carapace and golden limbs crawled out from the crack in the soil.

Taking advantage of his sharp eyes, he looked at it at once, then stepped on it, grabbed the poisonous hook with his hand, and grabbed the scorpion.

The scorpion was only 4-5cm in size, hanging in the air, struggling constantly.

"Hey, I came across a small lunch snack!"

Chen Xu looked at the little scorpion in his hand, and the corner of his mouth curled up, "This kind of scorpion is everywhere in Africa. As I said before in the desert of Devil City, if you can't find food and water, these insects may become your last survival Assure!"

"This scorpion is still very young and has not reproduced parasites on its body. Although it is a bit disgusting, as long as I don't eat its poison sac, I will be fine!"

After saying that, he threw the little scorpion into his mouth, bit the tail, tore it hard, and chewed it.

The audience can even hear the sound of the scorpion's carapace "creaking" and "creaking" being crushed in Master Xu's mouth from the footage captured by the drone.

At this time, there was only a small piece of scorpion tail left in Chen Xu's hand. Perhaps the taste was not very good, and his whole face became a little hideous, as if he had eaten some chili, "Hah...it seems that the African The taste of the scorpion is not very good, but the protein energy it contains can at least temporarily relieve my hunger!"

"Haha, I heard the sound, crunchy!"

"Scorpion: Wait, I haven't written a suicide note yet!"

"Crystal Pioneer: Pawn!"

"Yesterday Xiaobai gave the anchor 50 rice balls! ——I'm a Scorpio and I can't help but feel a chill down my spine!"

"TAN Lonely gave away 10 grilled fish! ——Scorpion: Nima, don't eat the big rhinoceros, you eat me, QAQ!"

After replenishing a little energy, Chen Xu came to the entrance of the cave, "This is a good place to enjoy the cool air, but it is also a good place for other large wild animals. I don't want to be intruded by other animals suddenly when I am resting, so I must find some Something blocked the hole!"

"I don't know if you still remember. When I was surviving in the Yunnan tropical rainforest, I said that beasts have an instinct, that is, when they encounter obstacles, they will subconsciously go around. I can find some dead trees and shrubs. Build a simple fence here!"

So, he searched around and found a bunch of dead thorny tree trunks. He smiled and said, "This is a good thing. It is a kind of black locust tree in Africa. Have you seen the thorns on it? It is very hard and Very sharp and many wild animals don't like to be near it!"

After explaining, Chen Xu immediately pulled a few over carefully, and added some shrub branches to form a fence.

Afterwards, he returned to the cave, used his backpack as a pillow, and lay down leisurely.

Seeing the mocking barrage of "Xu must be paralyzed" and "You're inflated again" all over the screen, Chen Xu chuckled.

After chatting with everyone for more than two hours, it was almost three o'clock in the afternoon.

At this time, the hottest time of the day has been avoided.

Chen Xu immediately packed his things, kicked off the locust tree, and continued to drive towards the dry riverbed in the south.

About 40 minutes later, he finally saw the riverbed in front of him and ran over excitedly.

Because he began to see green vegetation covering, which fully shows that there is a certain water source nearby!

After searching along the riverbed for a while, Chen Xu finally found a pool of water, but unfortunately, it was a pool of stagnant water.

"The water is not flowing, and it's already smelly. Look at the dead mouse floating in the water. This is warning us that there must be a lot of bacteria and parasites in the water!"

"Especially the blood-sucking worm, which is a very terrible parasite in Africa. If it infects the intestinal tract, it will cause severe dysentery."

Chen Xu shook his head with a serious face. Obviously, between a sip of water to quench his thirst and death from diarrhea, he valued the latter more.

But just as he stood up and was about to leave, suddenly, a plant with green leaves and red thorns on the edge appeared in front of his eyes.

Chen Xu rolled his eyes, squatted down, and broke off a thick leaf.

"Is this aloe vera?"

"It looks like it looks like an aloe vera, and it has thorns on both sides!"

"Could Master Xu want to eat aloe vera? Can this be eaten?"

Looking at the barrage, he smiled and nodded, "Yes, this is indeed aloe vera, a kind of African aloe vera, also called aloe vera Curacao, one of the five main edible aloe vera in the world, and one of the five types of aloe vera currently used in Africa. The most widely used aloe in terms of food, medicine and beauty."

"Look at its meat, it's very fat. I just need to use a dagger to peel off the top layer of skin, and then make a few more cuts on the aloe meat, and a lot of juice will flow down!"

After speaking, he showed it to everyone.

After scraping off the aloe vera meat, Chen Xu immediately put it near his mouth.

Sure enough, just as he said, drops of transparent, slightly gelatinous liquid slowly flowed down the aloe vera flesh and entered his mouth.

After Chen Xu drank about a dozen drops in total, he stopped drinking.

The audience is a little puzzled:

"Master Xu, why don't you drink more!"

"Yes, Master Xu, there are still so many, I can't afford to eat them all!"

"Yes, just to relieve hunger!"

Unexpectedly, Chen Xu shook his head, "Using aloe vera to replenish water is only an urgent need. Although aloe vera liquid contains a lot of nutrients, it also contains a lot of emodin glycosides. After taking it, it enters the intestinal tract and will exert a stimulating and laxative effect. , that is, diarrhea."

"Some primitive tribes in Africa often use aloe vera as a laxative, so we must not eat too much, try not to exceed 15 grams, which is also the maximum amount of aloe vera poisoning in the human body."

"Don't be discouraged if we haven't found a water source. Since there can be stagnant water in this riverbed, we will always find new water sources along the riverbed!"

After the words fell, he began to walk along the river bed and continue walking forward.

Chapter 172 The Top Killer in Africa

After walking for about half an hour, Chen Xu once again found several marks beside the river bed.

He squatted down, and compared the shape of the imprint with the knowledge of wilderness hunting in his mind, he couldn't help but stare, "This is... the footprint of a lion!"

The audience in the live broadcast room were shocked when they heard it.

After all, since ancient times, lions and tigers are basically the two animals that everyone is most impressed with and are most afraid of.

"Judging from the shape of the footprints, they are walking forward, which is also a signal, because lions also need to replenish water, so these footprints are telling us that there is likely to be a source of water ahead!"

Chen Xu thought about it, but decided to continue on his way.

After a while, he finally heard the sound of "crashing" running water. Excited, he immediately ran forward.

Only a few dozen steps away, Chen Xu finally saw a flowing brook!

Yes, this is a living water!

Chen Xu excitedly took out the military water bottle from his waist, and the moment he was about to go down the river, he suddenly discovered that there were several lion footprints in the sand on the river bed.

"Quick! Did you see it? It's there. On the sand in the river bed, there are lion footprints, and they are very large, indicating that they are adult lions. I am a little worried, but in the dry African grasslands, if you want to find fresh water It's really not easy, we can speed up the water fetching and escape from here quickly!"

After speaking, he jumped off the river bed and immediately stuffed the military water bottle in his hand into the creek.

While pouring water, he was vigilant around his surroundings. Once he saw the figure of a creature, he would retreat quickly without hesitation.

The watering time is no more than ten seconds.

But in the past ten seconds, Chen Xu's heart was beating fast, and he was afraid that an African lion would leap out of his side.

"Okay, the water is almost filled, let's go!"

Seeing that the kettle was full, he could finally breathe a sigh of relief, and immediately climbed up to the shore.

But just as he landed, before taking two steps, he suddenly noticed a yellow figure in a bush about 50 meters away!

Geek!

Chen Xu felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

The drone immediately followed his thoughts and retracted the camera to the past.

All of a sudden, in the screen of the live broadcast room, there was a bush, and I saw a terrifying lion head with a brown mane, hiding in it, breathing, as if avoiding the hot sun, or Just woke up from an afternoon nap.

It's an African lion!

And it's a lion!

There is no one at the top of the food chain in Africa!

The audience in the live broadcast room were also taken aback when they saw this African lion!

"Fuck! This is the first time I've seen a real lion!"

"Poodle: Huh? It's Lord Xu? MD, he wants to eat me, run away!"

"Don't be kidding, everyone, this is a real lion, Lord Xu will die!"

"Master Xu, run quickly, don't be discovered by it!"

Chen Xu squinted his eyes and looked at the African lion in the bushes.

At this moment, it was slowly raising its head, and a pair of cold and fierce eyes swept over him in an instant!

"Oops! It has found me, calm down! Be sure to calm down! Remember, don't run around at this time!"

While speaking in a low voice, he took out the harpoon at his waist. It seemed that only the dagger could give him a sense of security.

"This is the Masai lion, the largest cat in Africa. Everyone knows the explosive speed of cats. It is no exaggeration to say that on the African grasslands, a lion can rush 20 meters in just over a second, which is as fast as incredible!"

"Their claws are extremely sharp, and they can disembowel someone with a single slap. If a male lion of this size attacks me, he can take his head off with a slap on my neck."

"If it really wants to attack me, it is impossible for us to outrun it, because the lion's instinct is to chase, just like a dog, it cannot help itself, if you run away, you will be chased by them, then you are [-]% sure to die. "

When the audience in the live broadcast room heard his commentary, they immediately felt a little scary:

"Hold the grass, and there are such awesome animals, isn't it invincible?"

"Of course invincible, the lion is the king of beasts!"

"Oh my god! Isn't Lord Xu dead!"

Chen Xu looked at the barrage and said in a low voice, "Not necessarily. Lions have a very clear division of tasks. Females are responsible for daily hunting and raising offspring, so many people think male lions are very lazy."

"Actually, male lions are generally only responsible for dueling for territory, patrolling and defending lions, and hunting difficult targets. In other words, they will only attack super-large beasts."

"Maybe in the eyes of this male Masai lion, I'm not worth it's shot at all. So, before it gets up, we have to leave as soon as possible. If the lioness comes back, it will be difficult to run away!"

After the words fell, Chen Xu bowed his waist and slowly withdrew from the sight of the lion.

When he was 80 meters away, he quickly ran towards the south.
