Live Wilderness Adventure

Chapter 808 Seventy-seven days

June 3rd.

On the uninhabited Gobi, a huge camel walked on the stones on the ground. On the back of the camel sat a young man in a khaki expedition suit, gently pulling the rein to control the direction of the camel.

There was nothing strange about this scene, it was no different from most of the camel breeders, it was just that the appearance of the young man was out of tune with the locals, and it was supposed to be a tourist, but he was able to walk freely on a camel alone, which was a bit strange.

But if you look carefully, you will find that the strange thing is not only this, the equipment on the camel is very primitive, not the original function and shape, but the material, most of which are even woven from bark.

No matter how poor the camel breeder is, there are at least a few wooden carvings, covered with leather, and camel saddles with exquisite patterns in their homes. It is impossible to use this kind of saddle that looks very shabby without any fancy.

It's easier for a camel to go down if you think about it: rein in the rein and stop, slip down from the neck, or get off the back.

Tamed camels can also climb up from their necks. Camels have hard waists and are not as comfortable to ride as horses, but they are warmer. Riding on camels in winter has humps at the front and back to block the wind. They are all fluffy and not cold at all. It’s no worse than a horse at all, and it doesn’t need to be fed well.”

But it's hotter during the day, so it's better to put a bamboo mat or something.

As Bi Fang spoke, he stepped down from the camel's neck and slid all the way down, the whole process was extremely smooth.

After another two days of training, Bi Fang has been able to ride this newly domesticated camel proficiently.

[666, don't need to feed well (dog head)]

[Camel: It’s only been a few days, so it’s starting? 】

[Two days ago, I called her Xiao Tiantian, but today I call her Mrs. Niu, heh, man]

【Too fast, really too fast】

You can't talk nonsense.

Bi Fang led the camel to a melon field.

Strictly speaking, our side is still muddy land, so the vegetation is quite rich, and there are a lot of shrubs. We can even find two trees to see if there are any fruits on them. When we really enter the desert area, we will I don’t know what I can eat.”

So before that, we have to replenish as much supplies as possible. Speaking of which, this melon field is almost exhausted by us.

The camel training for nearly a week has officially ended, and the next step is to officially set off to cross the Sahara.

Bi Fang searched on the ground and found that there were not many desert gourds left.

This piece of plants didn't grow much at all, and when Bi Fang and the camels came, they were consumed at a rapid rate, and a few came every day, but Bi Fang only picked the fruits, and didn't pull out the roots. When next year, it will be full of fat again It's so sweet.

Pick the last few melons and put them on the camel's back.

After doing this, Bi Fang raised his head to look at the sun, lightly squeezed his hunchback, turned his direction, and officially headed north, with the scorching sun behind him and golden light everywhere.

Humans often regard the unsuitable external environment as adversity, which is a metaphor for fighting against it.

I used to think this way too, but after going through so many things, my thinking began to change. It's not a good way to survive in a dangerous situation—fighting against the sky, the only loser is myself.

The new environment does contain potential dangers, and you must take precautions in advance, but nature does not show favoritism.

Learn to adapt to every climate and learn to use what the environment gives you. Climate is not only dependent on latitude, location and altitude are very important factors.

Most desert areas were once fertile soils where some organisms survived and adapted to their new environment.

Like them, survivors must learn to use any shade that protects them from the scorching sun, minimize body fluid loss, and limit daily activities. Constantly learn survival experience from travelers across the desert.

[Survival of the fittest! 】

【If you can't change nature, learn to change yourself】

[Mutation, start! 】

Bi Fang closed his eyes, as if recalling some past.

After a while, he continued speaking.

In some deserts, such as the Sahara Desert, the Middle East Desert, the Peruvian and Northern Chilean Deserts, and the Gobi Desert in Mongolia, the temperature difference between day and night is very large. The condensation of water vapor in the air at night can obtain precious water.

In the Namibian Desert in South Africa, the moist fog brought by the sea breeze also provides the moisture necessary for life.

In areas such as Western Australia, northern Mexico and the Mojave Desert in the southwestern part of the country, the temperature difference between day and night is relatively small, and there is little water vapor condensation, so animals and plants are rare and survival is more difficult.

Sometimes, like in the Kalahari Desert, there are sparse grasses and thorny shrubs. Even in the most barren environments, some life can survive, but you have to know how to find them.

In the desert, you will encounter sandstorms, and the visibility is almost reduced to zero. You need to take strict protection to prevent sand from entering your eyes, ears and nose. In addition, there are cyclone sand columns, a desert cyclone similar to a tornado, which is very common.

“Even when the rains come—and in some areas it can take years, you don’t want to be too happy, they can pour down, quickly form huge floods, and quickly dry up absorbed by the surface.

It sounds dangerous, but during this period, some plants also briefly flower, and animals that reproduce rapidly complete the life cycle cycle, such as the spadefoot toad that lives in the Arizona area.

[Another day shocked by knowledge]

【Old Fang knows too much! ! (crazily shaking the light stick)]

[The first jungler is online, animals, tremble! ! 】

Faced with the cheers of the audience, Bi Fang smiled and shook the reins lightly to make the camel go faster.

Feeling the wind flowing in the air, Bi Fangwude took out a felt hat from the backpack hanging beside the camel.

[Hiss, Lao Fang took out another strange thing]

【Where did this come from】

【Grass, did I enter the theater of Raiders of the Lost Ark? 】

I have said so much, the purpose is just to let you understand the true meaning of survival, don't blame others, you have to be good at using your brain, which is the most precious wealth of our human beings, and then discover and adapt to those extreme environments. A ray of life.

There is only one goal in front of us now, and that is the Sahara, the worst, most famous, and largest desert of death in the world.

The Sahara in the past was also an oasis, and there were still many people living and multiplying. But with the deterioration of the environment, this area was gradually covered by deserts, and it became one of the areas with the worst natural conditions on the earth. One of the areas suitable for living organisms.

Our goal is to cross it in a limited time.

Bi Fang put on his felt hat behind his back to block the harsh sunlight.

The index finger flicked the brim of the hat, and under the shaking, it cast a shadow obliquely, covering his expression.

In Around the World in Eighty Days, Mr. Fogg can travel around the world in 80 days and return to London. Then I believe that we can also travel across the entire Sahara in 77 days.
