Section 520

At the same time, the temperature on the island has also been affected to a certain extent.

Ups and downs.

No definite number.

wind.

It's getting bigger and bigger.

All the signs here always gave Lu Yu a bad feeling.

It always feels abnormal.

Therefore, whenever he has free time during these days, he will go to the river for a stroll.

Observe the changes in water level.

But after a few days, nothing unusual was found.

The stream remains.

The water level is also tepid.

Nothing special.

At least, on the surface, there should be no unexpected troubles happening in a short period of time.

This day.

It’s the fifty-first day in Olidia!

early morning.

With the gloomy morning light.

After eating breakfast, Lu Yu immediately started the live broadcast.

"good morning everyone."

The next second.

Neat barrages swarmed in from the right side of the live broadcast room in an instant, covering the entire screen.

"Good morning Yugami!"

"Happy New Year, Yushen!"

"People from Jiangxi sent congratulatory messages and wish everyone a happy New Year!"

"Nanyang Vocational and Technical College sent a congratulatory message!"

"Happy New Year anchor!"

“I finally got my sign today!”

If the audience hadn't said it, Lu Yu would have almost forgotten it.

It turns out today is New Year’s Eve.

On a deserted island.

In addition to counting the days until he leaves every day, Lu Yu has long been ambiguous about these festivals from civilization.

Not in that mood either.

But no matter what, it is the Chinese New Year after all.

After suddenly realizing it, Lu Yu immediately sent his blessing:

"Happy New Year everyone, I'm really sorry."

"Thank you for reminding me, otherwise I wouldn't have realized it."

"This is a day to celebrate and a day full of joy."

"At least for the vast majority of Chinese people, it is an extraordinary festival. But unfortunately, in order to leave here alive, this special day for me is just a way to survive. It seems ordinary, but in fact it is It’s been a hard day…”

In recent days, it has rained heavily.

The daily supplies in the camp are almost exhausted.

Among them, perhaps the most important ones are food and firewood.

The food is nothing to write home about.

Although the cassava is not yet mature, it should not be a big problem to survive because it is supported by eggs and hunting spots.

No matter what.

Just kill the remaining two turkeys to make yourself feel better.

The most troublesome thing is firewood.

Because it rained heavily.

No vegetation in the jungle was spared.

In this case, finding dry firewood is no easy task!

Sit in front of a campfire.

Lu Yu was drinking the hot tea that had just been brewed.

While continuing the topic just now, he said:

"The rain came so suddenly and didn't give me enough time to react."

"It won't work without fire. We have to think of something."

Put down the clay bowl.

He stood up and carried the bamboo basket.

He picked up the stone axe.

Then he left the camp and headed into the jungle.

Jungle after rain.

The trees were wet.

Without the help of combustible materials, these forest trees cannot be used as firewood.

The humidity is too high.

…

Wading through grass full of water drops.

Lu Yu said as he walked:

"Rain is a very annoying thing when you are trying to survive outdoors."

"If you don't have a fire handy and don't have the right clothing, a rain can cause a meltdown."

"It's difficult to make a fire and the body temperature is lost... Unless you have all the equipment, it will be difficult. So, how to solve the problem of difficulty in making a fire? Don't worry, let me explain slowly!"

When on the road.

Lu Yu's eyes never stopped.

It looks like he is looking for something.

"When we can't get dry enough firewood, we try to look for trees with higher oil content, such as pine or eucalyptus."

"If you are in the northern hemisphere, after a heavy rain, even if all the trees in the jungle are wet, as long as you can find a pine forest, you can definitely light a fire."

"Pine trees are rich in oil and are not afraid of water. They are extremely flammable. To this day, indigenous people living in the mountains of North America still use them to make fire."

"Of course, if you're in the southern hemisphere, don't be discouraged, eucalyptus will also save your life."

Eucalyptus, also called eucalyptus.

It is the collective name for plants of the Myrtaceae and Eucalyptus genus.

Tall evergreen trees.

There is a periodic phenomenon of dead leaves falling off during the year.

Most species are tall trees.

Only a few are small trees.

Very few are shrubby.

But whether they are small trees or large trees, all eucalyptus trees have one characteristic in common.

That is the branches, leaves and trunk, both containing wax.

Very oily!

Very flammable!

Even a spark can ignite it.

The most outrageous thing is that high temperature and prolonged drought can also cause the eucalyptus tree to change its temperament and spontaneously combust to vent its hatred.

"The origin of eucalyptus is mainly in mainland Australia. It was not introduced to all parts of the world until the 19th century. By 2012, 96 countries or regions had mastered the role of cultivating eucalyptus."

"Eucalyptus is a very interesting tree species that is extremely prone to getting angry."

"In terms of flammability, it is absolutely the best. As long as the temperature and climate are a little dry, it will burn involuntarily."

Why do wildfires often occur in Australia?

Among them, the main reason is the existence of eucalyptus.

If you don't pay attention.

It will cause a large-scale forest fire.

But the most amazing thing is that when the fire burns other vegetation, the culprit of the fire is not affected.

After spontaneous combustion, the eucalyptus will not only not be destroyed.

Instead, it will grow new buds on the spot!

In this way, there are more and more eucalyptus trees on the entire Australian continent.
