Live Wilderness Challenge

After walking for more than an hour, it was already noon, and the sun was high on the African grasslands, shining on the withered and yellow land.

While wiping his sweat, he took a small mouthful of water to moisten his throat, but he didn't swallow it, so that he could keep his mouth moist all the time, so he wouldn't feel thirsty.

There is no way, the water in the kettle is running out, and we must save water before we find the next water supply place!

Chapter 179 A lot of water flowed

After walking for another ten minutes, Chen Xu saw a piece of yellow-green grass growing in front of him, and in the middle of the grass was a huge tree.

The reason why it is called a giant tree is because the tree is really too big!

It is at least 20 meters high, and the diameter of the trunk is exaggerated to at least 10 meters!

The whole tree is earthy gray, and the crown is covered with dense branches, which look a bit like fallen tree roots, while many brown-black fruits have fallen from the ground, some have been opened, and some have rotted.

Chen Xu looked at the tree, stared at it, and smiled excitedly: "666, what do you want, I actually met such a rare baobab tree, we have water!"

After the words fell, he immediately ran towards the baobab tree.

The audience in the live broadcast room listened:

"Bread tree? Didn't you see it last time on the island!"

"Yeah, isn't most of the breadfruit stuffed with starch, and there's no juice, right?"

"Master Xu couldn't be hallucinating from thirst, right?"

Chen Xu came to the baobab tree, smiled, shook his head and said: "This is not a bread tree, but a baobab tree. Although there is only one word difference between the two, they are actually quite different. The former belongs to the genus Jackfruit, while the latter is The genus Baobab in the family Kapokaceae."

"The baobab tree, also known as the bobab tree, is a large deciduous tree, mostly distributed in Africa, the Mediterranean Sea, the Atlantic Ocean and the islands of the Indian Ocean. Its fruit is as huge as a football, sweet and juicy, and it is the favorite of monkeys, elephants and other animals. When it is ripe, the monkeys come to pick the fruit to eat in groups, so it is called 'baobab tree'."

Some viewers are still puzzled:

"Master Xu, it's the dry season in Africa, the tree has lost all its leaves, where is the water coming from?"

"Yeah, the fruits in the ground are probably all gone, right?"

"Haha, just sit and watch Master Xu get slapped in the face by the audience!"

Unexpectedly, Chen Xu was not embarrassed by the slap in the face, but smiled and said: "I said there is water, and I don't just mean the fruit of the baobab tree. In fact, the trunk of the baobab tree also contains a lot of water. Moisture."

"In order to survive the dry season smoothly, the wood is very loose, hard on the outside and soft on the inside, like a porous sponge. This kind of wood is best for water storage. A huge baobab tree can even store thousands of kilograms or more. Water, it can be called the water storage tower of the wilderness."

While speaking, Chen Xu took out his harpoon, cut a slanted knife mark on the tree trunk, then quickly picked up the military water bottle and put it under it.

"When we make a cut, we must make an oblique cut around the trunk, and then make a groove at the bottom, so that the water can flow along to the mouth of the pot. If we cut it horizontally, it will spread out directly. You guys Look, the water is coming out! There is a lot of water, and in a few minutes, we can fill a whole pot!"

When the audience in the live broadcast room heard it, they said wretchedly:

"Is it out of the water? 666, Master Xu will drive if there is a disagreement!"

"Could this be the legendary sister juice?"

"Wow! The big tree shed a lot of water!"

"A bunch of filthy bastards, you are enough!"

When Chen Xu saw these bullet screens, his face was covered with black lines.

After seven or eight minutes, the kettle was filled with water.

He immediately took a sip, nodded, and said, "The taste is okay, with a slight woody scent, and the rest is similar to ordinary water!"

Then, he picked up a football-sized baobab fruit with a dark brown shell from the ground, and said:

"Attention everyone, don't waste this kind of baobab fruit that is not broken or rotten. It is not only rich in pulp, but also contains a lot of trace elements, vitamins and nutrients. It is an excellent food for energy supplements. Therefore, in Africa, it's also commonly referred to as a 'superfruit'."

After finishing speaking, Chen Xu immediately smashed the outer shell with a harpoon, and split the fruit. Inside were pieces of white pulp, somewhat like cotton candy.

Then he picked up a piece and threw it into his mouth, "Well! This fruit is very old and doesn't have much water, but it's sour and sweet, and it's still delicious!"

When the audience in the live broadcast room heard it, they were immediately aroused:

"Nimma, why does Master Xu always meet delicious food in the wild to survive!"

"Looking at Master Xu eating baobab fruit, I'm hungry too!"

"+1, I want to eat too!"

Because the sun was too hot at noon, Chen Xu simply sat in the shade under the baobab tree, chatting with the audience while gnawing on the fruit.

For a whole baobab fruit, he ate it all in his stomach.

Not only that, he also found the remaining two unspoiled fruits, split them open, took out the pulp, put them in his backpack, and kept them as dry food on the road.

At three o'clock he packed up his things and continued south.

With the lessons learned from last night, Chen Xu decided that he must hurry this afternoon and try to find a suitable camping place before nightfall.

If he still doesn't rest well for two consecutive days and nights like last night, then his physical condition will definitely be affected.

Fortunately, the mountain belt in front is already obvious, which means that the distance from it is not so far away.

And it seems that starting from that baobab tree is a dividing point.

As Chen Xu walked south, the terrain and vegetation began to diversify.

The surroundings are no longer a single grass and bushes, but occasionally there are some large trees and hills.

The Serengeti prairie is indeed a paradise for wild animals. Along the way, he saw not only giraffes, but also antelopes and zebras.

"There seems to be a big hole ahead, let's go and have a look, maybe we will find something!"

After walking for about an hour, Chen Xu found a huge downhill ahead.

"This big pit may be man-made. If you look at the surrounding stones and clods, there are obvious traces of machine digging. This kind of pit slope is very steep. The fastest way is to slide on it. You have to insert your heels into it. Go, then balance on both hands and zigzag all the way down!"

After speaking, he demonstrated it to everyone in person, shoveling the slope all the way, walking in a zigzag, and sliding down.

The outdoor hiking shoes produced by the system have shown good performance at this moment, and the anti-skid performance is very good along the way.

When he reached the bottom of the pit, he saw a temporary hole made of wood.

Chen Xu stuck his head in, frowned slightly, and then said to the camera of the drone: "This should be an abandoned mine. Although Africa is not developed, it has a vast land and abundant mineral resources, so it is full of mines. Gold mines, diamond mines."

"Fuck! Is there gold? Master Xu, go in and have a look!"

"Yeah, if you miss it, you'll post it!"

Chapter 1 A big zongzi was found in the tomb?

Chen Xu pulled the wooden frame with his hand, then pushed the wall inside, nodded and said: "This mine should have been abandoned for a long time, but it is still solid, we may go in and have a look, maybe we can find something that is good for us. Useful supplies."

"However, before we go in, we must make a little preparation. Everyone knows that a large amount of carbon monoxide will grow in the abandoned mine for a long time. If you don't pay attention, it will easily cause poisoning."

"Just on April 15, 4, a carbon monoxide poisoning accident occurred in a mine in Yunnan because of blasting smoke in the mine and poor exhaust, causing 25 people to be trapped, including 21 deaths and 2 sent to the hospital. , so be alert to us, and be careful of unknown gas!"

"Here, we can use wild grass to make a torch. Do you still remember the simple torch I taught you to make in the tropical rainforest? It is to split a branch vertically, and then sandwich the fuel in the middle, so that you can Make a torch that lasts for about 5 minutes!"

While talking, Chen Xu found a stick from nearby, and split it from the top with a harpoon, "We can use the fat layer on the thigh root of the gazelle as fuel here, which is very good fuel, but light It is not enough to have fat, we must fill in some wild grass as fuel!"

After explaining, he grabbed some wild grass from the ground and tied it to a tree branch, wrapped it up in a big ball, and ignited it with a flint and steel.

With a "wow", the torch was ignited, and the high temperature roasted the fat, turning it into grease, which dyed the grass and sticks, creating an effect similar to that of an oil lamp, preventing the grass from burning out prematurely.

Afterwards, Chen Xu cautiously walked into the mine with a torch in one hand and a harpoon in the other.

As soon as he entered the mine, the flame of the torch trembled visibly.

"Did you see that there is still a lot of unknown gas in the mine, but as long as the torches are not extinguished, there should be no problem, but the smell in the cave is very strong, it should be abandoned for a long time!"

Chen Xu said something to the drone, then turned his head and continued to move forward.

With the illumination of the torches, the environment in the mine gradually became clear.

It is similar to a normal mine, surrounded by earth and rock walls mined by mining machines. The only difference is that the mine owner may be afraid that the cave will collapse, so he uses iron frames to support it every ten meters.

And on these iron shelves, there are also some old wires hanging, which should be used for lighting and ventilation equipment, but they are obviously abandoned now.

From time to time, there will be a few rustling sounds of dust falling from the roof of the shed.

All that was left was the sound of Chen Xu's own "treading" footsteps echoing throughout the mine.

"Fuck, I feel that this environment is a bit creepy for no reason!"

"Why does it feel like going to the cemetery?"

"Haha, Captain Mojin: Lord Xu!"

When Chen Xu walked for about two minutes, he suddenly found a hard hat on the ground. This is a good thing!

He immediately picked up the helmet, the hat is yellow, and the whole is made of fiberglass, which is also one of the best materials for helmets, not only light but also strong, with strong impact resistance and penetration resistance Performance, it is a pity that the probe light installed on the front of the hat is not working anymore.

Chen Xu directly chose to put on the hat, which not only protects the head, but also shades the sun, killing two birds with one stone.

After walking for more than a minute, the light of the torch was already very dim, as if it would go out at any moment.

When he was about to check it, suddenly, a small "squeak" sound caught his attention.

"Master Xu, I seem to hear something?"

"I heard it too. There shouldn't be any big rice dumplings in this mine, right?"

"666, the live broadcast in the wilderness has become a live broadcast of tomb robbers!"

"Why do I feel like the voice of a mouse!"

Chen Xu smiled slightly, "If there are rats, it is a good sign, because there are mines where living things exist, it means that the possibility of harmful gases is very low!"

Just as he was talking, he illuminated the last faint flame of the torch, but there were no rats on the ground, but there were many traces like bird droppings.

He looked up subconsciously, my mother!

Chen Xu's eyes widened, his entire face was filled with surprise.

But, above the roof of the mine, densely packed, there is a fluffy rat-like creature hanging upside down!

"Oops! It's a swarm of bats!"

His face changed.

The audience in the live broadcast room also felt their scalps go numb, because there were too many bats on the roof of the mine. There were at least a few hundred bats just by the light of the fire, and they couldn't see the end from afar. !

At this time, the bats in the front row had begun to gradually wake up.

"Squeak..."

They turned their heads to each other, opened their mouths, exposed sharp fangs, and made a few mouse-like sounds, but sharper and higher.

"They're waking up, we have to get out of here, run!"

Maybe it was a bad premonition, before Chen Xu finished speaking, he ran towards the exit of the mine at high speed.

With the screaming of the bats in the front row, a large number of bats were all awakened and frightened, and even fell from the top and flew towards the entrance of the cave.

If there is the first one to fly, there will be a second one.

In an instant, more and more bats flew towards the entrance of the cave at high speed. Under the shooting of the drone, it looked like a black water rushing in the air!

"Squeaky-!"

A series of sharp shouts came out, very ear-piercing.

Seeing the bat getting closer and closer in the live broadcast room, he suddenly became nervous:

"My God, Lord Xu, the bats are catching up!"

"Master Xu, work harder, run!"

"My dear mother, I have never seen so many bats in my life, bat sea tactics!"

While running, Chen Xu was also always paying attention to the situation behind him, seeing that all the transparent light curtains in front of him were emitting the barrage of "Catching up", coupled with his prediction of the sound.

The next second, just as the bat swarm was about to rush over, he suddenly dodged, grabbed the drone, and fell directly to the ground!

Boom!

The drone is indestructible, but to do a full set of acting, with such a large swarm of bats rushing over, the propeller will definitely be broken. The audience doubts that he can only do this.

But it was precisely such an action that produced an astonishing visual effect.
