Live Wilderness Challenge

You can see through the lens that there are a few shallow plum blossom-shaped footprints.

Chen Xu squatted down and smiled: "Looks like last night, an animal really came to check it out. Judging from the shape of the footprints, it should be a sand fox. This shows that our 'method' is still very successful!"

Then, he began to find several black beetles and a small golden scorpion under the nearby bushes and in the crevices of the stones.

They are the sand beetle and the Israeli golden scorpion.

However, it has now been collectively referred to as "Master Xu's Breakfast".

While eating food, Chen Xu concluded to the camera of the drone: "Today is the fourth day I have been in the depths of the Sahara Desert. It took me three full days to walk from the endless yellow sand to the Arrived in the semi-desert with wild grass and bushes."

"When I checked the equipment just now, I found that there was not much water in the kettle, and there was less than 100 milliliters left. That is to say, our main goal today is to find a new water source."

"However, I am not as worried about it as before, because this is a semi-desert land, where mammals live, so the water source should be easy to find, and if you are lucky, you may even encounter Arab and Berber tribes , then our survival can end early!"

Chapter 396 Do you want to drink urine?

When the audience heard Master Xu said that the live broadcast might end today, they were immediately disappointed, and they all sent barrage requests to ask Master Xu to live broadcast for another two days.

Chen Xu smiled, saying that this thing can only be done by chance.

However, judging from the current terrain, he should have entered the semi-desert area by now.

Because there is Lao Bei to travel, if there is no accident, you should be able to reach the central plateau before today.

As one of the largest gatherings of indigenous residents in the Sahara, there are many Arab and Berber natives living there, so the probability of being rescued is still very high.

After finishing the food, Chen Xu packed up his things, rode Lao Bei, and continued heading southwest.

Along the way, there were more and more wild grass and shrubs, and many huge canyons and mountains began to appear in front of them, which were very similar to the landform of Devil City.

Fortunately, there are many low and flat dry rivers among them for people to walk on.

Otherwise, Lao Bei would not be able to climb up these huge mountains at all.

At 10 am in Libya, the weather is still starting to get hot.

The water in Chen Xu's kettle had already been drunk long ago, and he had just urinated on his scarf to cool down the temperature on his head.

He has passed through two canyons and a river valley in a row, and at this moment, there is an endless flat land in front of him.

But some viewers noticed carefully that there were some ruts on this wasteland.

"Master Xu, there are ruts, maybe there are other self-driving tourists or explorers nearby!"

"Probably not? Who would come here to explore? It's too dangerous!"

"I remember that there seems to be a world-class cross-country event in the Sahara called the Dakar Rally. It seems to be held here in January every year. Maybe it was left over from then!"

Chen Xu got off Lao Bei, walked to these ruts, and observed carefully, but his expression was not very happy.

After a while, he frowned and said slightly seriously:

"Some viewers are right that there is a Dakar Rally in the Sahara, but in 08, the African continent was under the threat of terrorism because three robbers shot and killed four people who were going to Mauritania for Christmas. French tourists, five others were injured."

"The Mauritanian government stated that it would guarantee the safety of the Dakar racers, but not long after saying this, three Mauritanian professional soldiers were shot dead, so, out of safety considerations, the race was conveniently postponed. Bringing it to Argentina, that is to say, since 09, there has been no rally in the Sahara.”

"Moreover, according to my careful observation, I found that these ruts are very new, and the corners and patterns on them are very obvious. This must not be left in January, it should be these few days."

Recently?

The audience was stunned. Since it is not a rally, is it an explorer?

Chen Xu narrowed his eyes, "It may be terrorists. The North African war situation has always been turbulent. The Sahara is vast and uninhabited. It is very suitable as a camp for al-Qaeda!"

terrorist?

Oh my God!

Many viewers were taken aback by these words. The last time Xu Ye survived in the ruins of the Syrian battlefield is still vivid in his mind, especially those few cruel terrorists, who simply killed people without blinking an eye.

In the end, if Master Xu hadn't arranged the situation well in advance and was agile, he might have died there!

And in front of him, in the Sahara, where birds don't shit and stretches as far as the eye can see, if they really bump into it, wouldn't they become a living target?

You know, the reason Xu Ye was able to survive last time by chance, firstly, was because of those explosive chemicals, and secondly, because of the complex terrain of the city ruins, which can be well concealed.

But here, there is nothing!

Chen Xu also knew the seriousness of this matter.

"Judging from the direction of the ruts, they should be heading to the central plateau. I hope these people are just some explorers, but we must prepare for the worst in everything. We still have to be careful!"

After speaking, he returned to Lao Bei's back and continued on his way.

At noon, he came to a canyon, found a shady place, and began to avoid the high temperature.

After tying Lao Bei to the rock, Chen Xu began to look for water and food nearby.

For two consecutive hours, he was exposed to the sun on flat ground without any shelter, which made him sweat profusely.

If it weren't for Lao Bei carrying him away and the urine cooling down, maybe he would have already passed out due to heatstroke.

After 10 minutes, he finally found a wet crack under a shady stone wall.

Chen Xu touched the wall and pinched it with his fingers, "There is moisture, there should be water seepage around here, let's dig at the base of the wall!"

So, he repeated the old routine of digging ancient wells.

But this time it was obviously much easier than the ancient well. Within 15 minutes, he dug the thin mud.

But the embarrassing thing is that just when he continued to dig, thinking that there would be a source of water at the bottom, it turned out that the more he dug, the drier he was.

Gone?

Chen Xu looked at the large amount of thin mud around him, and the bottom was completely dry loess, and he was obviously taken aback.

Soon, he figured it out, "It seems that this is not water seepage from the ground, but water seepage from the wall, which is similar to the seepage of minerals in Devil City. The water seeps from the wall and flows to the ground, resulting in this result. But the Sahara is drier, so there's no water left here."

Many viewers watched Xu Ye spend so much time and energy, and all he got was a pile of undrinkable slime. They felt distressed, so they sent a bullet screen to comfort them.

But unexpectedly, Chen Xu didn't look too disappointed.

The next moment, under the surprised eyes of the audience, he took out the military kettle, unscrewed the lid, put it in front of him, and began to undress.

"Fuck, Master Xu is going to drink urine, right?"

"So exciting? Wait for me, I'll get instant noodles!"

"No, since it's peeing, why do you have to take off your upper body?"

"Wow! Master Xu has a great figure! Confess to me, Xu~~"

By the time the audience sent out the barrage, Chen Xu had already taken off his Arc'teryx outdoor shirt on his upper body.

He explained: "Everyone misunderstood, I didn't want to drink urine. I remember that I told everyone when I was in Devil City before, don't drink urine unless it is absolutely necessary."

"Although 90.00% of urine is water, the other [-]% is all kinds of waste, harmful substances, and a lot of chemical salts. Although it is not as high as seawater, it will also damage cells and kidneys. , causing great harm."

"According to a urine study in a laboratory in North America, when the human body repeatedly drinks its own urine more than three times, it will not only make the body thirstier, but also cause the solution to become saturated, resulting in anuria."

Chapter 397 Food delivered to your door!

When the audience heard it, they immediately recalled the knowledge about drinking urine that Master Xu once said in Devil City.

There are indeed many toxic substances in the urine, which can cause great damage to the kidneys.

Moreover, every time the kidney concentrates the urine and absorbs the water, the next time the urine is urinated, it will be yellower and thicker than before, and the water content will be less.

Over time, after more than three times, the state of anuria will basically be achieved.

But some people still don't understand, since Master Xu didn't drink urine, why did he put out the military water bottle?

Wouldn't it be to drink mud?

The corner of Chen Xu's mouth curled up, and he smiled mysteriously, "Some people have already guessed that it is indeed related to the mud."

"In fact, most of the mud in the desert is composed of loess. I think everyone should know that the water absorption capacity of soil is much higher than that of sand. Therefore, although these muds are very viscous, they actually contain Lots of moisture."

"I just need to take off the shirt, then wrap the mud and squeeze it hard. Using the fine mesh of the shirt, I can get a lot of water!"

While speaking, he held all the mud around the ground in the center of the shirt.

After finishing, Chen Xu pulled up the clothes around the corners, tightened them all up, and twisted them into a "big bun" shape.

"Hold the bottom with one hand and squeeze with the other, and you can get a lot of water!"

After adding another sentence, he aimed at the mouth of the military water bottle and began to twist the shirt wrapped in mud.

as predicted.

As soon as he twisted, a stream of water flowed out from the bottom of his shirt.

Through the high-definition camera of the drone, the audience saw that the water flow was not particularly clear, and it was still a bit gray.

While squeezing, Chen Xu kept adjusting the position so that the water flow was aimed at the mouth of the kettle.

"It's so hot, I'm playing mud in the Sahara~"

"It's so muddy, if it were me, I wouldn't drink it to death!"

"In the desert, water is good, what kind of bicycle do you need?"

"It would be interesting if Master Xu used a turban to filter it, it smells like urine!"

After 2 minutes passed, Chen Xu put down his shirt, picked up the kettle, and shook it when he couldn't squeeze out any more water.

"The effect is good, you see, there is as much as half a pot of water!"

"However, there is still a lot of dust in it just by filtering it through the shirt, and it is not filtered out from the sand, but filtered from the rock wall and flowed into the sand, so there may be bad dust in it." Less bacteria!"

"In the Sahara, water sources are very precious, and any water source cannot be abandoned. The Berbers have a special way to deal with unclean water sources, which is to boil them and add mint leaves."

"Because mint has a strong bactericidal effect, combined with heating, it can turn the water into a clean water source; we can't find mint, but it is still necessary to heat the water!"

Afterwards, Chen Xu returned to Lao Bei's side, used flint and steel to set up a small fire, put the kettle on it, and started burning it.

After more than ten minutes, he drank the hot water comfortably. Although it tasted a bit earthy, he was still very satisfied.

The only pity is that I haven't found any decent food around here.

He can only continue to be hungry.

At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Xu continued on his way.

Because he didn't eat at noon, his physical strength began to be a little too much.

Although he always rode Old Bei, he seldom walked by himself.

But in fact, since he entered the Sahara, the pressure brought by the task, the high-intensity continuous rush, repeated water shortages, and unstable eating have been tormenting his spirit and body.

At five o'clock, the setting sun had already set on the horizon, dyeing the entire desert red.

Chen Xu shook his head hard, blinked hard, and observed the terrain ahead.

The audience could tell that Xu Ye was very tired.

He sighed, "Unexpectedly, the central plateau is much farther than I imagined. Up to now, let alone an oasis, I haven't even seen a decent flora, and I am very weak now. If this continues, There is no way to hurry!"

After finishing these words, Chen Xu closed his eyes firmly, and then opened them again, "The organs that consume the most energy in the human body are the brain, heart, liver, and lungs. Among them, the energy consumed by the brain occupies even more energy. 20.00% of all energy!"

"Once the energy supply in my body is not available, it will affect the thinking of the brain, especially after the damage to the area dealing with three-dimensional space, it will make me seriously misjudge the direction and disrupt my ability to execute the plan. If it continues to develop, In severe cases, it may even cause brain atrophy!"

When the audience heard it, it was so scary!

Therefore, many people suggested to Master Xu that it is better to kill Lao Bei directly. As long as he can survive tonight and walk for half a day tomorrow, he will reach the central plateau.

The half-day journey can be easily completed even without a camel.

Chen Xu grinned and looked back at Lao Bei.

To be honest, the audience's suggestion is undoubtedly a good choice.

But it still didn't want to hurt Lao Bei, after just two days of getting along, it could be regarded as helping him a lot.

Now that I haven't been pushed to a critical juncture, I won't take action against my former "friend" just because of this little difficulty.

So, after he tied Lao Bei up, he began to look for food nearby.

Strange to say.
