Fog Survival

Chapter 1547: Cold and Hungry

The situation he was facing now was so difficult that it was even difficult to find an area to build a simple shelter, because everything he saw was white, and he was shivering with cold.

What frightened him even more was that at night, when he took the waterproof cloth, he found that it had been completely frozen and covered with a layer of ice. Finally, when he touched it lightly, the waterproof cloth cracked.

Then he thought about using fire to melt the ice on the waterproof cloth, but in the end, even with a fire starter, he was unable to successfully set up a fire.

On the one hand, it was difficult to find wood, and on the other hand, even if he found wood, these woods were full of water and difficult to ignite.

Such a devastating start caused him to die on the spot, and Qi Yuan shook his head helplessly.

This is fate!

No one knows what they will face. There will inevitably be a group of people who will die directly at the beginning because of luck. This is something that no one can predict. It is a risk that everyone needs to face.

The situation faced by Qing is relatively much better.

There are water sources and shelters, but now the only thing missing is food. As long as he finds a stable source of food, he will gradually survive in the wilderness environment and get through the most difficult situation in the early stage.

There was no conversation that night. Everyone spent a night of fear and trembling. When they saw the sky was getting light, they only felt hope in their hearts.

Qing didn't sleep all night. He didn't want to sleep anymore in the morning. He stood up directly and began to plan for a new day's survival. Now he must race against time and not waste any time.

But before working, he still checked his own condition.

First of all, the injury on the arm and the sprained foot yesterday. He gently twisted his ankle and found that there was no obvious pain. Obviously, he had recovered almost completely after a night.

As for the injury on the arm, there was no symptom of heavy bleeding, but there was still a faint pain, which still had some impact on felling wood.

Moreover, he felled a few trees with the injury on his arm yesterday, which caused a small amount of blood to overflow from the wound at that time, which made the injury heal more slowly.

Next, the arm must have been used many times, which would more or less cause secondary damage to the wound, which made him a little worried.

Fortunately, the wound was not particularly deep, and there was gauze and medicine to prevent infection. He just needed to be more careful and it should not have much impact.

While thinking in his heart, Qing began to explore the surroundings. He needed to start looking for food, which was the top priority for survival.

First, he came to the stream to see if there were any fish or shrimps in it, but the result was still disappointing, because the stream was too narrow, only 30cm wide, and there were no fish or shrimps living in it.

However, in the future, he can follow the stream to see if there are any wider streams, where there may be some fish and shrimps.

Then, Qing began to search in the surrounding jungle and accidentally found a wild fruit tree with some wild fruits as big as table tennis balls growing on it, but he couldn't tell what kind it was.

Qing picked one at random, and after eating it for just a bit, his face changed and he vomited. The sour and astringent taste was really unacceptable to him.

However, this is a kind of food after all, and judging from the fruits that fell on the ground, they should have been eaten by animals and birds, and there is a high probability that they are not eaten.

So, he picked some wild fruits that were bigger and looked somewhat ripe, collected them, and brought them to the shelter.

Although wild fruits are not very delicious and cannot be used as food in the future, it is a good thing to be able to find wild fruits, which means that there is indeed food around, and the resources are relatively abundant, so he will not starve to death here.

Not long after, Qing found some mushroom food on the slope below the shelter, but he did not know whether this kind of fungus food was edible, so he did not dare to act rashly.

After spending nearly an hour, he didn't find enough food, just ate two wild fruits to fill his stomach, and couldn't help feeling a little depressed.

However, it's not that there is no good news. When exploring around, he found a few scattered wild bamboos, which are the best materials in the wild and can solve a lot of troubles for him.

Whether it's building a shelter, building a fence to defend against wild beasts, or even weaving bamboo baskets, weaving traps, making daily necessities... Almost all aspects can be used.

So, Qing directly cut a larger bamboo back, cut off a section of bamboo tube first, and made a cup for himself to drink water.

From yesterday to today, although he has found the stream, he has not drunk water.

If he is not thirsty to a certain extent, he will never drink raw water that has not been boiled, which is likely to cause diarrhea and other problems.

Now that you have found the bamboo tube, you can use it to hold water and boil it before drinking.

Build a bracket on the fire, hang the bamboo tube on it, and then boil it completely before drinking the first water.

At the same time, he looked at the bamboo and some other ideas began to appear in his mind.

If the bamboo is split into pieces, it can be used to make some simple traps, maybe to catch some wild animals.

He did it as soon as he said it. Although his technique was not very skillful, he still used a few hours to make five or six very rough traps.

Then place these five or six traps in some areas where wild animals may be found, such as the ground next to wild fruit trees; areas with wild animal feces, etc.

If you are lucky enough, you may catch some wild animals, which will provide food in a short time.

However, he still needs to continue looking for edible food. After all, no one knows whether the traps can catch animals or not, and no one knows how many they can catch.

After that, Qing arranged a task for himself. The first is to continue to expand the search range and find edible plants. The second is to collect firewood on the way to ensure that the fire can keep burning at night.

By the way, he can collect some more wood. He plans to renovate the shelter and block one of the ventilation holes to form a closed shelter to improve the safety of the residence.

Then this time, his luck was very good, and he managed to find a special plant a few meters away.

In fact, he didn't know what kind of plant it was, but he saw a squirrel digging the roots of this plant to eat, so he threw an axe at it. Although he didn't kill the squirrel, he snatched the plant.
