Searching for food through the beast world

Chapter 3 Jungle life is not easy

Jungle life is not easy

Ding Xiao chose to pick up his own bag and pick up his potato chips and instant noodles to look a little further away.

After hearing the sound of rushing water, Ding Xiao let out a long breath.The five hours of searching were not in vain. At this moment, it was as if God had thrown him a mountain of gold, and the smile on his face suddenly became bright.The soreness in the body and the fatigue of the legs and feet seemed to have eased a lot at the moment.Water, he needs more than anything!

Following the sound of the water, I accelerated my walking speed, and within 5 minutes, a clear stream appeared in front of me.The stream is not big, but there are still small fish swimming around in it.This made Ding Xiao feel even happier. The presence of fish in the water naturally meant that the stream water was not poisonous.Of course, Ding Xiao didn't know that he had traveled to another world at this time, otherwise he wouldn't make such a judgment casually.Although this rule is also common in this world.

Putting down the package, I quickly lay down by the stream and drank it in a big gulp.The cold stream water poured into Ding Xiao's stomach, which would inevitably make his stomach ache while quenching his thirst.Only then did he realize that he hadn't eaten anything since noon yesterday.

The largest fish in the stream is the size of a finger, and even if it can be carried in a lunch box, it can hardly satisfy your hunger.Of course Ding Xiao has a lot to eat.But now he just chooses to open a bag of potato chips.I drank a little too much water just now, and now the feeling of hunger is not obvious. After eating some potato chips, there is oil, starch, salt, and sugar.When he was not sure when he would be able to leave here to see people, he had to be more cautious about what he ate.

A bag of potato chips went into his belly, Ding Xiao folded the bag of potato chips and put it in his messenger bag.He will not do things that pollute the forest environment.And he was very careful when tearing this thing apart, maybe it could be of some use in the future.

With the bottom in the stomach, people will naturally start to think about problems.Of course, what Ding Xiao thinks about is definitely not "where is this" or "how did I get here".Because I couldn't figure it out last night.So what he wants to think about now is how to solve his dietary problems.The water problem is solved.As long as you walk by the stream by yourself, you don't have to worry about getting thirsty.What about food?Five packs of compressed biscuits felt like a lot when I bought them, and the person who bought the biscuits next to me looked at me strangely.But the fact before us is that it is life-saving food, and it must not be used lightly.There are only five bags in the package of instant noodles, even if I only eat one bag a day, I can only eat it for five days.Don't say that potato chips can also replace food, that's really unscientific.Ham sausage is the bottom line.Five catties feels like a lot, but how long can it last?

So the best way is to find food in the forest by yourself.Whether it is wild fruit or wild animals.Ding Xiao has no way to be a wildlife protector now. The key is that he has never had hunting experience. No matter how passionate he is, the chance of catching pheasants and hares is really not high.Unless it's a trap.

There really is something in that Wilderness Survival Handbook.In fact, there are some ways to find water sources.Of course, Ding Xiao only discovered this when he opened the back of the book.There are also several hunting methods written in it, but things like beast traps and hunting forks are really far away from me.The only feasible way is to dig a big pit, put cut wood on the bottom of the pit, and then cover the pit with vegetation, or lure or wait for the prey to fall into the trap.But this only feasible solution now looks unreliable.What do you use to dig a hole?Not to mention using that 21cm universal tool set.There's really no shovel on that.He regretted it, the little shovel was obviously only [-], why did he dislike its size and gave up on it!

There is no way to hunt for the time being, so we can only continue to look for wild fruits or vegetables.Expect to find the river further down the creek.Ding Xiao has been very proficient in catching fish directly with his hands and spearing fish with a spear since he was a child.In fact, this craft was taught by that man.Thinking of the face that accompanied him and his father for ten years, Ding Xiao frowned slightly.No matter how you do psychological counseling, the feeling of being hurt will never become better.

After resting for a while, Ding Xiao felt that he had to set off.Although you have to walk next to the water source, the kettle must still be filled with water for emergencies.

Carrying the heavy luggage, Ding Xiao didn't feel that they were too many and no longer felt heavy.The things in the bag are all my life!

The forest did not go to the edge as easily as Ding Xiao thought.After walking for a whole day, it made him feel like he was going deeper and deeper into the forest.There is still no sign of human activity here, and fortunately he did not find any feces of large animals, which reassured him a lot.Occasionally, I heard the sound of animals crawling around in the grass, but they were all in the opposite direction. It was not a carnivorous beast at first glance.

But this day he had a little gain.That is, he discovered a rather miraculous fruit.The tree bearing this fruit is very tall, but it looks very small in front of the surrounding trees.After looking at it, it should be about eight meters. It is absolutely impossible for him to go up the tree to pick the fruit.Firstly, he is still suffering from constant dull pain, and secondly, he has no problem going down the river, and climbing trees is not his strong point. Even if he controls his fear of heights and climbs up, then falls down and breaks his bones, it will be completely finished.

But it is still very convenient to obtain this fruit.Probably because of the ripeness, there are many fallen fruits under the tree.In fact, the reason why they were discovered was because Ding Xiao saw a few birds landing on the green-skinned fruit and pecking desperately, and it wasn't just a kind of bird that ate this kind of fruit.This gave him reason to believe that the fruit was non-toxic.But despite this, after picking up a fruit, he didn't dare to eat it in big mouthfuls. Instead, he took a small bite first, chewed it twice to taste the taste, and then spit out the pulp.It wasn't until an hour later that he realized that he was really fine, that he began to eat with big mouthfuls.

The reason why this kind of fruit is said to be miraculous is because Ding Xiao has never seen it before.Not only have I never seen or even heard of it.The outer skin of the fruit is green, not too firm but thick.The bite is crunchy, similar to the taste of cucumber, but more fruity than cucumber.The best thing to eat is the red flesh inside.Apple-like taste but the taste of lychee.This made Ding Xiao have to admire the magic of the Creator.After eating two fist-sized fruits in one go, he carefully put the core, which was only the size of a small fingernail, into the bag.I thought in my heart, if I grow this kind of fruit after returning home, it will be very difficult for me not to make a fortune!

On the second night in the deep forest, Ding Xiao decided to camp by the stream near the fruit tree.He regretted not buying that one-person tent now, but there was nothing he could do.Fortunately, the temperature in the forest is not too low, and he will light a bonfire at night, so the combination of his thick T-shirt and jeans should last for a while.

Before dark, Ding Xiao cooked a lunch box of boiling water in a stainless steel lunch box.I drank a little by myself, washed my face with the rest of the water and showered my feet.These two days have been too scary, he has to let his feet relax a little bit.

When setting off the next day, Ding Xiao picked up twenty green and red fruits as spare food.Of course, this is the name he gave to the fruit himself, although it has no taste, it still matches quite well in terms of color.

Along the water, there are not too many such fruit trees.It is impossible for Dante to eat only this kind of fruit to satisfy his hunger.So he spent another three days mixing instant noodles and potato chips.During the period, he also saw fruits of different colors and shapes on some other trees, but because he couldn't judge whether they were edible, he didn't dare to eat them blindly.As for wild vegetables, he didn't dare to try them, even though many of them seemed to be familiar to him, and he didn't want to eat anything he didn't know right now.But during these three days he added a meat dish.That is a bird like an egret that lays eggs by the stream.

Without any catching skills, Ding Xiao never thought that he would succeed.But when the stone was thrown out and hit the big bird's head accurately, Ding Xiao was stunned.Firstly, he didn't expect his aim to be so good, and secondly, he never thought that the bird would get hit without even hiding.So Ding Xiao got a bird about the size of a goose and an egg.

Ding Xiao handled the bird in the water.He was very worried that the strong smell of blood would attract carnivorous beasts.But fortunately, his worries were unnecessary.He was relieved to see no sign of large animals after he racked the bird and roasted it.From this, he guessed that maybe there were no large beasts around here at all, and he didn't even see many small animals.This great white bird was an accident.

It's just that it's impossible for people to live just to eat and drink.On the fifth day that Ding Xiao came to this forest out of nowhere, the pain in his body gradually intensified, and his emotions finally appeared in a state of anxiety.It has nothing to do with hunger, because he found that eating that kind of green and red fruit can not only fill his stomach but also have no side effects, and the strength in his body has not been reduced due to the days of carrying weight and pain all over his body.That big bird had enough meat to last him another two days.What drove him crazy was that the forest seemed endless, and he couldn't see any hope of leaving.

The doctor said to maintain an upward and hopeful heart in the face of difficulties.But the problem now is not that Ding Xiao doesn't want to keep it, but that he has completely lost his direction.At first he believed in the compass on his watch.But on the fifth day of living in the forest, the stream turned at the foot of a high mountain.He turned around to follow the current, intending to look at the compass to confirm his position.It turned out that no matter how he turned, the compass only vibrated slightly without any meaning of guiding straight north.Did it break?Ding Xiao was so puzzled.But the time and date were very accurate, which inevitably made him feel an inexplicable fear in his heart.

I have arrived at a place where the magnetic field is disordered?Combining the few things he couldn't figure out, Ding Xiao finally realized a question: "Am I still on the land where I used to live?"

The question was so important that he could no longer put the thought aside.At the foot of the hill he stopped.He sat down against a huge rock.

If he is no longer on the earth, then he has traveled through time?Like the plots of those online novels that many students like to read?So here is the alien?Different time and space?Is it ancient times or somewhere in the future?

Ding Xiao was completely at a loss this time.The self-regulation methods taught to him by the psychiatrist were completely useless.He even felt that if he told the doctor what he was thinking now, it would not be a matter of taking medicine and counseling.It is estimated that going to the hospital is certain.

Thinking of this, he laughed again.I can still joke with myself, it seems that there is really nothing wrong with my mentality.He also affirmed that this was not a dream, let alone a fantasy after insanity.

But what to do?Is there anyone in this world or this land?If not, will I die alone in the forest?No, there can be no mortal age.I'm afraid I can only live until the moment when I encounter a large beast.
