The live broadcast room fell into dead silence following Jennifer's stupefaction.

In the past, people only heard about the existence of such an animal, but the witnesses were always ambiguous, and most of the photos they took were blurred, so they couldn't really feel its majesty.Among the audience, only those who know more about Indian culture know the white moose. In the hearts of the local aborigines, they are the jewels in the palm of the gods, carrying the souls of ancestors and bringing peace and luck.

But after today, no one will see more strange things.The high-tech camera produced by Stark is indeed the king of photography. The entire crew always keeps a safe distance to shoot from different angles, but the definition is so high that it can distinguish every piece of battle damage on the antlers.

The audience was in a state of excitement, and after a brief silence, whoever wrote a wish in the comment area first, Jennifer's comment area was flooded with all kinds of wishes.Some people write down their wishes for promotion and salary increase, some people write down their wishes for a happy marriage, some people write down their parents’ wishes for Kangtai, and among the countless wishes, there are also those wishes of big people that no one finds out or cares about——

[I hope there will always be something worth fighting for in the world, and I will always be a soldier fighting for it. 】

【I hope the world understands that only hope can overcome fear, and when my battle is over, everyone's life can start again. 】

【Hope I'm never late enough to stop all the bad things before they happen. 】

[I hope the world will forgive me for leaving without saying goodbye. 】

The small raft in the river of the Rocky Mountains was gradually drifting away. Jennifer dared not and did not want to disturb the peace of the moose rashly. She only turned around and looked back after passing by.

The Behemoth of the North was still watching her. After a few seconds, it shook its head and walked into the forest calmly, as if its appearance this time was only for this short-lived encounter.

After a long time, Jennifer smiled lightly and said, "It seems that I will have good luck today."

***

Facts have proved that there may be a gap between the good luck conceived by God and the good luck she herself recognizes.

As the raft moved into the afternoon, the relatively gentle hillsides on both banks suddenly became steeper, and highly undulating cliffs appeared one after another. Inspired by the mountains, the water flow in the river section became too turbulent, and waves surged in front of them one after another, marking underwater reefs where.

Jennifer tried to steer the raft with poles or paddles, but the force of the current was too strong for her to control the raft.After hitting a rock hard once, she quickly adjusted her backpack, shook off the sheepskin to fill the air, and tied it tightly with ropes to prevent no floating objects to use after falling into the water.The oars were still working their residual heat, helping the half-shattered raft leap downstream over a few sharp stone piles.

If that was the case, Jennifer might consider trying to stabilize the raft for safety, but when she looked at the terrain ahead, the expression on her entire face changed suddenly, and she immediately abandoned the boat and threw herself into the water.

The icy water of the river is like countless hands pushing everything in the water down, and the furious water pressure pushes everything down.With the help of the floating objects on her body, she managed to poke her head out to breathe, then untied the rope, turned her body and swam towards the shore with all her strength.One of the best ways to get rid of turbulence is to swim in a spiral, but this method is very physical and requires a long enough swimming lane to allow the drowning person to escape obliquely.

In fact, drifting down with the turbulence is a way to quickly get out of the valley, and it has been adopted by many explorers, but the premise is that the decline is within a reasonable range, not a cliff of unknown depth.Although she didn't know the high ground, she was lucky. The cliff was impressively wide, and the water flow was not as rough as it was in the front, which gave her an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Jennifer was so exhausted when she landed, she collapsed as soon as she reached the hard ground, and threw the sheepskin ball in her hand to the ground.

She turned her head sideways to look in the direction of the water, and saw that the raft was still embedded in the edge by broken stones, with one end raised high, shaking dangerously with the current.Confused thoughts flashed through her mind for about a few seconds, just a few seconds, before she got up, the raft finally couldn't bear the water pressure, and sank to the bottom of the cliff like finger biscuits soaked in soup.

Jennifer watched it disappear, and for a moment felt the mood of the shipbuilders when the Titanic sank.

Fortunately, all other equipment was still on her body, and she only lost a raft and a few pieces of bark. She quickly cheered up, picked up a wooden stick and walked towards the edge of the stone wall, wanting to see the height of the waterfall. .

The situation is not good.

From this angle, you can see the scattered rafts in the bottom pool, and the debris floats up and down on the water surface, and is further hit by the photographed water spray.Mao estimates that this cliff is nearly 30 meters high. What's more, there are faults extending on both sides of the river bank, as if two parallel mountains suddenly became perpendicular to the third mountain. Although it is a bit exaggerated, this terrain There are simply no rules at all.

Jennifer frowned and looked at the woods on this side, feeling a little hesitant.According to common sense, if you go a little further, you should be able to bypass this cliff from the forest... But I don't know how far to go around, and it may waste a lot of time.Thinking of this, she withdrew her gaze from the forest and placed it on the wide waterfall again.

Just about to check the terrain along the edge of the cliff, suddenly, there was a rustling sound in the forest.

Startled, Jennifer suddenly pulled out the outdoor knife and looked behind the tree warily.Will it be a cougar?maybe a wolf?You can't be so unlucky to meet a brown bear, right?

The images of ferocious beasts flew by before her eyes, and the hand holding the knife was faintly pale. She lowered her body and grabbed the wooden stick that had just been thrown away in the other hand, and a deterrent shout was already brewing in her mouth—— As a result, the cry was choked back alive in his throat.

The three members of the fifth group appeared from the forest. At first glance, they were all sluggish and injured, and they were in poor condition visible to the naked eye.Jacob still barely looks like a man, Anna has protruding cheekbones and sunken cheeks, and Kevin has a broken arm. Seeing a triangle scarf made of rattan and hanging around his neck, it is very scary.

Jennifer was very surprised to see them, but she didn't know that the other three were simply dumbfounded when they saw her.

A few meters away, I heard Anna calling her name, and the prolonged voice of "Jennifer Davis" was screaming, which was more panic, anger and disbelief than someone hacking an Olympic gold medal.She seemed to be stepping forward, but Kevin pulled her with his good hand, almost losing her balance.After standing still, she fiercely withdrew her arm from the opponent's hand, squinted at the indifferent Jacob, her face sank like water.

Something weird must have happened, Jennifer thought.

It's a pity that she has neither the time nor the mood to gossip. The red dot displayed on the ring of life is on the front left. The fastest way is of course to go directly over the waterfall and continue along the stream.

They came up to say hello one after another, politely asking about their health, but they didn't say a word about what happened in the jungle these days.Jennifer is well versed in the principle of reciprocity, so she briefly mentioned the process of making a raft and traveling.We haven't seen each other for a week, and both sides are a bit tentative, but Jacob Rodriguez's purpose is obvious: the terrain is gradually getting lower, the terrain is getting more and more complicated, and the number of wild animals is multiplying. The danger is not the same as before. , Four people are better than three people.

[With all due respect, one person is better than three.You didn’t see the live broadcast, it’s really too miserable, the little brother who loves the SEALs, alone with two oil bottles, nerd + princess disease. 】

【一个人也比四个人强,这难道就是传说中的1>3且1>1+3?】

To be honest, Jennifer couldn't see the comment section, if she could, she would probably have to nod on the spot.

However, in order to show her friendliness, she still put forward her own opinion: "There is not much time, so we must prepare for the rappelling. Either take a short detour to see if the terrain has eased and perform the rappelling ahead, or don't waste time. Waterfall here, what do you say?"

Jacob frowned: "The direction we are coming from is a cliff."

Jennifer nodded: "Understood, you want to cross the river and go to the other side to have a look." These three people probably just walked along the section to the river because they were unwilling or unable to descend by rope. Difficult.They were injured, and the turbulence here can still handle it. Two of them are excellent at water, so it is not impossible to cross the river.

She found a reason for the other party herself, and readily accepted the status quo of walking alone. However, before she could say goodbye, Anna suddenly asked, "Us? You won't go with us?"

Jennifer replied: "I'll just descend from here later, and I won't go to the opposite side to take a long detour."

She felt that there was no question in her answer, but Anna was very dissatisfied, and a cold light suddenly shot out in her eyes: "Land down from here? Do you dare? Can you go down this waterfall so high? Even if you are talented enough to go down, this one What about the rope? Oh, I see, you mean to let us watch the rope for you, and then let us help you release the rope after you go down. Miss Davis, it has been the same since the first day, and the three of us are in Help each other, but you didn't help us a little, but made a good four-person group missing a quarter, and let other groups take advantage of it."

It's kind of funny to say this.

From the corner of her eye, Jennifer saw Kevin nod submissively, while Jacob remained silent.She took out the climbing rope from her bag, sighed, and said quietly: "The production team didn't mean to force the contestants to form a team, and I didn't mean to ask you to help watch the rope. But you are right, everyone The contestant only has one climbing rope, and I am not willing to use it and throw it away anyway.”

After saying these few words, she stopped talking, just shook off the climbing rope, tied the knots, and began to prepare for the rappelling alone.

In order to still recover most of the ropes after going down the mountain, Jennifer is going to tie two knots on the climbing ropes.The fixed point is to choose a solid giant tree at the side and rear to tie a double figure-of-eight knot, and a sheep's foot knot is added in front of the double figure-of-eight knot.

The sheep's foot knot is a very practical rope technique in the wild. It is a little complicated to play. It needs to lay the rope in a "Z" shape on the plane. The top rope wraps around the bottom two horizontal lines from the bottom and passes through itself upwards. , and then operate the lowermost rope as above, immediately tighten it, and cut off the unstressed part in the middle.

This kind of knot will shake off most of the rope as long as the climber relaxes after the rope descends to the bottom. In other words, the climber must keep the rope tight all the time during the whole process, otherwise the knot will come out and lose the fixed point , is no different from jumping off a cliff.

The sheep's foot knot is very dangerous while being practical, and will even bring a certain amount of psychological pressure to the user, so only the most experienced climbers will choose it as appropriate.If it is extremely dangerous to use it, then the factors of single rope, no safety buckle and 30-meter waterfall add up to literally and practically hanging by a thread.

How can a person hold on to the climbing rope all the way in the waterfall?

If the upper left hand is loosened and the knot breaks, it is death; if the lower right hand is loosened, the rope slips off, and it is also death—in the final analysis, it is suicide.

The viewers who were watching the live broadcast were frightened by the science popularization in the comment area, and the survival experts who were watching and explaining also shook their heads. It is generally believed that this is an act of passion after being provoked. Shooting into pools of water or piles of rocks will result in death. It is nothing more than the difference between a better death and an ugly death.

As the center of the topic, Jennifer didn't think so much.

She understands the dangers of sheep's foot knots and waterfalls better than anyone else, but she is also more familiar with the operation of sheep's foot knots and waterfalls than anyone else.The river after descending from here is suitable for rafting, and another raft can be built to quickly rush to the destination. This is the key point. As for the conflict with Anna, the facts will tell everything. Trying to speak quickly is nothing but self-deprecation.

With the knots in place, Jennifer took off her jacket, wrapped the front ends of her hiking shoes with socks, and untied the sheepskin balls to lay them on the rocks to prevent the climbing ropes from being worn out.Immediately afterwards, she retreated to the side of the waterfall where there was water under her feet, stepped over the rope with one leg, passed it around her back, and raised the outdoor knife.

Anna couldn't hold back her face: "Hey, don't—"

Before the lady could finish speaking, the outdoor knife cut the unstressed rope neatly and twirled a trick between her fingers.Jennifer sheathed the knife, grabbed the rope, and fell backwards, falling beyond the cliff in an instant.I saw her right hand intermittently put the rope, her two slender and powerful legs bent, and disappeared from the sight of the three of them within a few steps.

Camera No. [-] in the foreground can't catch anyone, but the other three cameras can take pictures clearly.

In the live broadcast, a blue figure deftly descended near the waterfall.Without the interference of waterfalls, at least you don’t have to worry too much about slipping when you put the rope on your hand, just pay attention to the running water under your feet.She took as small a step as possible, and firmly stepped on the foothold on the stone wall with each step, never rushing forward.The rope ached her back, her thighs and her palms a bit, but Jennifer didn't change her face, and every time she relaxed, she was as standard as a textbook.

The three people on the cliff were still in a daze, she had already descended several meters; after another hesitation, the journey was halfway through; when they finally recovered from this hard-core operation of life and death, they saw purple red The climbing rope is loose.Suddenly, there was an arc from the bottom of the cliff, and the sheep's foot knots were instantly scattered. The man pulled again, and the whole climbing rope flew down from the top of the cliff like a snake, leaving only a short slough.

The roar of the waterfall still echoed in my ears, and Jennifer calmly tied up the rope and put it into the backpack, rubbing the trembling arm muscles.

Three heads protruded tremblingly from the rock above the head, one was dumbfounded, the other was full of worry, and the other was furious.

She waved her hand calmly, stepped on the gravel beach beside Tan, and walked towards the woods without looking back.
