Chapter 834 Pointed Building

The moonlight is brilliant.

Compared to yesterday, today's moon is bigger and rounder. It is located above the wilderness, and there is no problem with vision at all.

"Is it mid-moon?"

Bifang, with ostrich feathers on his shoulders, looked up at the full moon in the sky and calculated the time.

The full moon of each month is on the 15th or 16th of each lunar month. It is very simple to calculate the solar calendar based on this. When it is verified with memory, the exact time can be obtained.

Dozens of days and nights have passed. In the middle, I have seen grasslands and canyons, but in the end I returned to the desert. At first glance, the surrounding environment has hardly changed. Sometimes even Bifang himself cannot accurately determine the date of the day.

"We set off on June 3rd, and there were still seventy-seven days left. Now it is August 3rd, and we still have sixteen days left, half a month."

"More than enough."

According to the current speed, it will take less than ten days to reach the west bank of the Nile River and see the pyramids that I have been thinking about. At that time, the entire journey through time will be officially over.

[It's about to end! ]

[Speaking of which, this should be Fang Shen's longest live broadcast. It has been more than three months now, which can be regarded as a miracle of live broadcast.]

[End of the broadcast]

More than a hundred days of uninterrupted live broadcast.

From the South Pacific to the North Sahara, it almost spans the entire earth, several time zones, and it can be regarded as the best live broadcast in terms of content and span.

The cover poster of Bifang himself has also been hanging on the front page of Langya for several months. On the poster of half blue sea and half yellow sand, he has gone from riding a boat to riding a camel, and now he is almost walking to the far right end of the half yellow sand.

[When is the next live broadcast? ]

[It feels that Lao Fang is getting easier and easier to cross the wilderness now]

[The God of War in the Wilderness belongs to]

[We want to see rivers of blood! ]

"There is no river of blood, we are a civilized live broadcast."

Bifang cut a piece from the cactus plant with a knife, peeled off the skin, and put it directly into his mouth to chew without cooking.

The strong plant fragrance bursts in the mouth, with a hint of bitterness. The excessive juice makes it taste not bad, but it gives the illusion of eating a cucumber with a strange taste.

This is the advantage of succulents. Even if the taste is not very good, the thick taste can bring great satisfaction, especially in the wilderness.

With his hunting skills, Bifang will not be so hungry that he will feel dizzy, but he can't be said to have abundant supplies to eat every meal, and he still has to go hungry occasionally.

For large amounts of food, Bifang naturally has a "taste compensation" mechanism, that is, others may not feel good when eating, but he feels that it is a rare delicacy.

"When eating cactus, it is best to choose tender slices, which are bright green in color. Such cacti have no thorns, which makes it easier to clean and taste very fresh."

"Tender slices between 15 and 35 days old are the most suitable, and a cactus that is about the size of a palm is enough."

"Cactus not only tastes good, but is also very nutritious. Eating a piece of cactus every day can eliminate excess cholesterol, fat, etc. in our body, and has the effect of promoting blood circulation, clearing away heat and detoxifying, and promoting our body's metabolism. In other words, it can lose weight."

[Lose weight? I won't be sleepy if you say this]

[I've decided to eat a cactus every day from now on]

[Losing weight is so damn hard]

[After traveling through time for so long, Old Fang has lost weight. Come on, give my 20 pounds to Fang Shen! Replenish his body]

[20 pounds? Are you kidding me? If the foreigners next door see me, they will think that I can't afford to eat and can't put on weight. What do you mean everyone is the same? This little bit is not enough for anyone to replenish. Another 20 pounds. Twenty pounds per person, take it away, take the scale away, you are so stupid. 】

[Ten points deducted from America! 】

The palm-sized succulent was cut off from the phloem, leaving the crisp and plump fleshy layer, as green as spring water, with a hint of coolness.

Bifang took a bite, and his mouth was full of frost.

"Hiss, it's a bit cold."

Bifang shuddered after swallowing the leaves, and the ostrich feathers on his shoulders swayed slightly.

If you eat cactus during the day, it will naturally be cool and thirst-quenching, but now it is midnight and the temperature has dropped to below zero.

"I almost forgot. It's a delight to encounter cactus in the desert. It can be used as food and also to replenish water. However, it is a cold food. Most people can eat it, but people with weak spleen and stomach should eat less. In addition, if you can eat it, you should eat it in moderation. Eating too much can easily lead to diarrhea."

"Diarrhea is nothing in normal times. Go to the toilet more often, drink some hot water, and take some medicine. But it is very deadly in wilderness survival. You may become dehydrated and lose a lot of calories. In severe cases, you may freeze to death that night."

Bifang is confident in his physique, so he ate three or four pieces before stopping.

Alpha on the side chewed it even more.

It has been coveting this succulent since noon, but unfortunately, Bifang has to do a test and has not let it eat it.

The audience was surprised to see Alpha eating cactus and not caring about the thorns on the cactus.

[By the way, if you encounter a poisonous plant late, will animals also be poisoned? 】

【Ruthless Iron Mouth】

【I don't think I've ever seen an animal being poisoned】

"Camels are not afraid of cactus thorns. Both sides of their big mouths are covered with serrated flesh thorns, which play the role of cutting and grinding cactus thorns. Chewing cactus with these thorns is like massaging. Cactus can't hurt camels or cause any harm at all."

"In addition, the sensory nerves in its mouth are not very sensitive, let alone feelingless, and the only soft tongue will flatten when swallowing the cactus."

"It eats cactus, which is no different from humans eating apples. Not only is it not difficult, but it is also a kind of enjoyment."

Alpha bit into the cactus, and Bi Fang stepped forward and slashed it with a knife, cutting off the connection to make it easier for him to eat.

"As for poisonous plants, animals and humans have the same reaction after eating them. There is no difference."

"Why we rarely see animals die from eating poisonous plants is because they are naturally wary."

"Animals in the wild have strong survival skills. They are not greenhouse flowers. They have never seen the world. They will be wary of plants that are not in their diet and will not take the initiative to eat unfamiliar ones."

"This is similar to what I said about finding water sources. Not all animals have the ability to find water sources. They will not die of thirst. This is entirely because they live in a fixed range. They know where the water sources are and eat food for generations. Same thing."

"It's just that there are many plants in nature that look very similar, and there are still animals that eat them by mistake, and they will have the same reaction after eating them."

"There was once an experiment, which was to throw a piece of fruit on the road and see the reaction of the monkeys."

"The fruit is not a type that grows locally. The monkeys were curious when they saw it, but they didn't dare to touch it. Until one monkey couldn't help it and took a bite. But after taking a bite, he threw away the apple and ran away."

"After a while, when everything seemed alright, it ran away again, took two bites this time, and then put it down. This is how monkeys avoid poisoning themselves, and it is similar to many other animals."

"There are also some animals that can eat these poisonous mushrooms in small amounts and be fine, such as some special squirrels, because they have evolved ways to deal with poisonous mushrooms."

[Hahaha, isn’t this similar to Fang Shen’s?]

[Understood, Fang Shen = Monkey]

[It’s different, Fang Shen is much better than the monkey. He has six steps to test, while the monkey only has two steps]

【Is this the evolution of human beings? I love it.】

After eating the food and replenishing his energy, Bi Fang exercised on the spot for a while, warmed up, and then began to build the shelter for tonight.

There is a long way to go to survive in the wilderness, and there are many things that need to be prepared, among which building a shelter can be regarded as the top priority.

Every time, Fang will not be careless. A good sleep is really important.

A shelter is not only a place to rest at night and relieve fatigue, but also a haven to adjust your mentality and relax your tension. In the wilderness, whether there is a shelter or not are two completely different situations.

Having a comfortable and safe shelter can relieve tension to the greatest extent and make better use of wisdom and ability to overcome difficulties.

On the contrary, the situation without a shelter is not optimistic. You will be exhausted during the day and frightened at night.

Therefore, building a good shelter can be said to be the key to successful wilderness survival.

First, check the surrounding environment. Bi Fang did not choose to build it in an oasis because there were too many bugs there.

"There are too many mosquitoes and all kinds of small bugs near the water, especially at night. You will feel like you are breathing in a lot of bugs with every breath you take."

"Mosquitoes in the wild are much more poisonous than you think. If you are in the rain forest, they will be even more dangerous. There is a risk of malaria. As for scorpions, I won't talk about them. I ate a lot along the way. "

"Today we still dig a pit, but there are a lot of plants nearby. We can use it to simply build a shed roof."

“Simplicity is success.”

“Never imagine that you can build a perfect shelter that is practical, beautiful, and labor-saving just like what is described in the books, because that is a delusion.”

"Think about it, when you are alone in the wilderness, it may have taken several hours from finding a suitable place to set up camp to lighting a fire. It gets dark early in the woods, and by this time nearly half of your physical strength has been consumed. How can you think about beauty anymore? At this time, your only choice is to make it as simple as possible.”

"To put it bluntly, having a ready-made kennel is perfect because it will save you a lot of time. And the saved energy can keep you safe, allow you to find food, etc."

【I do not believe】

[I have reason to suspect that Fang Shen has forgotten the wooden house he built before]

【Do you want to listen to what you are saying】

"That was a survival mission, which is different from my current time-travel mission." Bi Fang picked up the dead branches and smiled, "Besides, I have already said that if you really end up in the wilderness, don't think about your 100% chance of survival. Learn from me.”

"You can learn survival ideas and simple skills."

"For example, how to identify directions, find food, and build traps can all be learned, but for example, hunting with a spear or bow and arrow, without a certain degree of tempering, you cannot get started immediately."

"Similarly, I have not only built wooden houses, but also dug simple earth pits. The former is a high-end advanced method, and the latter is something ordinary people can learn."

"If you can follow the gourd's plan, do it. Don't be willful in the wilderness. It's a bit boastful, but I can be called a survival master now. My suggestions are all based on my own practice."

"Following my method can save your physical and mental energy to the greatest extent, and reserve energy for your future actions."

"Avoid blind confidence and arbitrary creation. Many people always think that they will be very powerful when they are in a trap, but the actual performance will be much more embarrassing than you imagined."

"Blindly pursuing high-end things will not only waste physical strength, but the most serious consequence is that you are likely to hurt yourself. Alone in the wild, it is difficult to guarantee food and water. Once injured, your body and spirit will collapse one after another. At that time, tragedy may happen."

[Fang Shen: Those who learn from me will live, and those who are like me will die]

[In a word, you are all scum. Don't think about playing awesome. Dig a pit when you should dig a pit, and hide when you should hide]

[The truth]

[I am the tragedy that will happen, woo woo woo]

Using a stone shovel to quickly dig a pit, Bifang spread branches, and then dug a small fire pit next to it, and used the remaining sparks from yesterday to make a bonfire.

Turn off the live broadcast.

Bifang felt the warmth of the flames and soon fell asleep in the dark.

The next morning, Bifang woke up and saw Alpha still eating. I don’t know whether it slept last night or ate all day.

Ten days before meeting the oasis today, Alpha had not received any effective supplies, causing his hump to become drier and shriveled.

Bifang, who was riding on it, even felt a pain in his butt.

This beast, weighing more than half a ton, suffered a lot during the time it followed Bifang.

Bifang sometimes felt embarrassed.

There was nothing he could do about it. He only needed one pound a day to eat enough and save money.

If it were Alpha, he would probably weigh 30 kilograms!

Even if he was not hungry, he would normally weigh more than 10 kilograms.

This was a complete food black hole, and no amount of supplies would be enough to fill it.

Fortunately, this trip to the oasis was about to end.

In the next few days, Bifang accelerated his pace and quickly completed the entire ancient trade route at a speed of almost one oasis every two days.

Every time he passed an oasis, Alpha could get a half-day supply window, and finally he was able to inflate his shriveled hump again.

The relationship between Alpha and Bifang also became much closer.

Animals are much purer than humans. As long as they are well fed and watered, they can gain their friendship.

Thanks to the sufficient supplies, even though they were given half a day to replenish each time, Bifang's travel speed did not slow down, but became much faster.

Every time Alpha was taken away, he was not only not resistant, but very excited.

He couldn't wait to go to the next oasis to try some fresh plants.

He was even more picky and only ate some tender leaves.

Finally, on the ninth day, Bifang saw a sharp-edged building on a certain height.

The glossy black shark is the smallest of the more than 350 known shark species. The length of an adult glossy black shark is generally 29 cm to 42 cm, and the longest will not exceed 50 cm.
