Live Wilderness Adventure

Chapter 864

Smoke from the extinguished bonfire.

On the dead tree next to it, the baboon was tied hands and feet to the bark. The whole body was curled up into a ball, squeezed between two thick tree roots exposed on the ground, and let out a low and slow breathing sound.

The cheetah leaning against the rock on the other side also purred slightly.

After waking up from his sleep, Bi Fang first checked the surrounding environment, and after confirming that there were no danger or other animal footprints, he got up and prepared for today's activities.

He first collected some black-gray charcoal ash, and then found a tree with a lot of vitality nearby, climbed up, and took some branches.

Pulling away the trees that wrapped the branches, Bi Fang crushed one end, and then rubbed it on a stone. After the broken end was ground out with dense fibers, he stained this end with a little charcoal dust, and started to brush his teeth as a toothbrush.

There is a slight burning sensation in the mouth, but fortunately it is not strong.

The normal operation should be to add charcoal ash to water to make charcoal ash water, and then use it as toothpaste for brushing teeth, otherwise it will easily irritate the mouth.

If the conditions are good, you can also add some aromatic plants to sterilize. Unfortunately, there is not even water for drinking, let alone toothpaste.

After simply washing up and spitting out the ashes in his mouth, Bi Fang put on his backpack and woke up the sleeping Harley.

Finally turn on the live broadcast.

[Although the National Day is over and I have to go to work again, I still choose to fish to watch the live broadcast (dog head)]

[Reasonable, work is to exchange labor for remuneration, fishing is the real money]

【Make money from the boss hard】

【Are we going to find a source of water today】

The baboon by the tree was also awakened by Bi Fang's movement at this time, and continued to howl dryly. After barking for a while, it found that it was ignored, and then gradually calmed down.

Bi Fang came to it at this time and checked the status of the baboon.

[nuclear smile]

【Bring some salt, salt】

【Subway, old man, mobile phone face】

Water drinking is an innate behavior mainly caused by two different thirst types, one is osmotic thirst due to increased blood osmotic pressure, which drives animals to drink pure water.

The other is hypovolemic thirst caused by fluid loss, and the animal seeks both water and minerals, usually salt, to restore blood volume.

Although the reasons are different, the emergence of both states has some external manifestations, such as skin relaxation, which is basically universal in mammals.

Bi Fang picked up the baboon, not allowing it to tilt its head at will, so as not to bite him.

Then reached out and pinched the back of its neck.

If you have dogs or cats at home, you can try pinching the back of their necks a little. If they are well hydrated like humans, the skin will be firmer and more elastic.

But if you are in a relatively dehydrated state, you will feel very loose when you pinch the part of the back of the neck.

The second is pacing back and forth. When animals feel thirsty and cannot find drinking water, they will appear restless, and then pace back and forth in a certain place, accompanied by a certain listlessness, and sometimes Slobber.

The lethargy was not clearly visible to everyone, because the baboon had been lethargic since he was caught yesterday.

On the contrary, the drooling was indeed shown. Before that, Bi Fang also saw the sleeping baboons licking their mouths subconsciously.

This is also one of the manifestations of thirst.

When you are thirsty, you will unconsciously lick your lips and subconsciously moisten your mouth to relieve the feeling of thirst.

This is of course useless and will exacerbate the water loss.

But it does not affect the instinct of animals to do this.

Judging from various performances, the thirst of the baboons is almost certain, and to a considerable extent.

Let's wait a little longer until eight or nine o'clock. At that time, the sight line is the best, and it is the least easy to lose track. You can also let the bullets fly for a while.

It was only less than six o'clock, and the sky hadn't fully dawned yet. It was not the best choice to let go of the baboons at this time.

There is no time limit for this live broadcast mission, and Bi Fang is not in a hurry.

Bi Fang collected materials nearby, rebuilt the bonfire, and then found a few straight branches, sat on the stone and started cutting.

Once the spearhead is made, it is blackened over a campfire.

After the wood is burned, it will be carbonized, and the spatial structure of the molecules will change, so it will become harder, but don't bake it for too long, just remove a certain amount of moisture. If it burns for too long, it will become loose and fragile due to burning.

After making a few spears as weapons, I chatted with the audience for a while.

Looking in the direction of the shadow of the tree on the ground, Bi Fang confirmed the time, came to the baboon, and untied the tied knot.

It's eight o'clock, it's time to go.

At this time, the baboon doesn't care who follows it and finds the secret water source.

The baboon squatting on the ground watched the rope on the tree trunk suddenly loosen, and finally fell to the ground, kicking up some dust.

Then his hands and feet suddenly relaxed.

The baboon, who howled crazily thinking that he was about to be eaten, was stunned for a moment, but quickly realized and ran away.

Quick, quick, keep up!

Seeing this, Bi Fang immediately grabbed his backpack and at the same time beckoned Harley behind him to follow.

So, on the vast African prairie, one person and one leopard started chasing a monkey. During this period, Bi Fang had to pay attention to the cheetah not running too fast, so as not to catch the monkey directly.

But there are also problems.

After running for nearly twenty minutes, Harley was out of breath and couldn't keep up.

The baboons' secret water source was farther away than Bi Fang thought.

The baboon landed on all fours, and the speed was not considered fast. For the cheetah, it was only at the level of jogging, but it couldn't support it for twenty minutes.

Seeing this, Bi Fang didn't hesitate too much, passed the rope through the cheetah's limbs, quickly fixed it, and directly carried the cheetah on its back.

Harley is still a sub-adult, slightly smaller than an adult cheetah. In addition, Bi Fang only has a Gambia rat in his backpack, an empty water bottle, preserved fire, some plant ashes, and a few spears on his body. Only about forty kilograms.

With a load of 40 kilograms, it is not too difficult for Bi Fang when the temperature is not too high.

Some soldiers with strong qualities can also do it, but in the eyes of the audience, it is also an extremely awesome thing.

On the contrary, if you don't recite it, maybe something unexpected happens.

It's like it's impossible for parents to let their children run around in the supermarket alone.

【Fuck, hang】

[Fang Shen: This thing runs so slowly, you deserve to be called Yellow Lightning? 】

【Earth's golden flash, right】

【Harley: Who am I, where am I, and how did I fly? 】

[Regular video of early humans taming wild monkey kings]

[Baboon: What's going on in the back, what the fuck, the cheetah, what the hell, the person running with the cheetah on his back! 】

【regular? I want to see informal! 】

【You know video】

[I saw it in this live broadcast, designing complex tools, formulating complete strategies, using other creatures, patiently waiting for the opportunity, well-developed sweat glands, strong cardiopulmonary function and muscle recruitment ability, and full joint range of motion. Sure enough, talent is monster. 】

[Talents are stamina monsters! ! ! 】

[I really envy Lao Fang's physical fitness. If I want to have this body, I will definitely become the most beautiful boy in the gym]

[One thing to say, even if you don't know anything else, You Fangshen's physical fitness can still afford society. 】

Another quarter of an hour or so passed.

After running for so long, even Bi Fang was exhausted and sweating profusely.

He hadn't drunk water for more than a day, and his throat was about to smoke.

Finally, the hard loess on the ground turned into hard rock, and the baboons jumped on the uneven rock, and disappeared in front of everyone in a few flashes.

When Bi Fang felt that a not-so-large dark cave had appeared in front of him.

Bi Fang put Harley down and stopped rushing in, but sat at the entrance of the cave and rested for a while.

The baboons found the cave so purposefully, it was self-evident what was inside.

The target has been found, so naturally there is no need to worry.

Even if there is no water source in a rocky cave like this, water droplets will gather and flow to form puddles.

Bi Fang was sweating and explained to the audience.

Because it's surrounded by rocks. The water doesn't seep into the soil and it just accumulates.

After panting for a while, Bi Fang's tone became more fluent.

However, I believe there should be groundwater inside. You see, there is almost no grass nearby, and there are still many footprints, indicating that there are actually many animals visiting here. If it is only because of the alternation of day and night and the water vapor condenses, it cannot support such a situation. Many animals fetch water.

Although he was sweating profusely and was a little out of breath, it didn't mean that Bi Fang's physical strength was at its limit.

Sweating profusely and panting are just normal physiological phenomena of heat dissipation. People with strong physiological quality will do this. The key is to see if the legs are already sore and limp.

So it looked very tired, just sat in the world for a while, Bi Fang felt that he had almost rested, rekindled the reserved fire, made a torch, and took Harley into the dark cave.

Although the hole is not big, it is two meters long and one meter wide, more than enough for a person to enter.

At this time, Bi Fang didn't care about the scenery in the cave. For him, the water was the most beautiful.

After only advancing less than 30 meters, a slowly flowing river appeared in front of everyone.

At the same time, the audience also saw that after the escaped baboon had a drink, he noticed Bi Fang who had entered the cave, and immediately climbed the rock wall to escape and disappeared.

Bi Fang didn't care when he saw it. As a primate, he couldn't use the baboon as food. The only purpose of catching it was to find water.

Now the purpose has been achieved.

Seeing the water source, Harley couldn't wait to go up to drink it, but Bi Fang grabbed it along the rope.

Before carrying the cheetah, Bi Fang tied it up with a rope and carried it on his back for convenience, but he has not had time to untie it yet.

Don't rush to drink water when you encounter it. As I said before, you should pay attention to whether the water source is safe in the wild. Running water is different from stagnant water, and running water is also different from running water.

Even if it is running water, a big river is hardly cleaner than a rushing brook.

Of course, that's not the reason why I stopped Harley. Baboons can drink, so many animals can drink too. Of course Harley might as well. It's just for us humans, I stopped him to guard against what might be in the water.

In the wild, you must pay attention to your location, especially when you come into contact with running water. There may be some large creatures in the running water. Most of the time, you don't have to worry about it, because large fish rarely attack the shore. creatures, but we are in Africa now, so we have to be careful if there are crocodiles in the water.

Harley, who has never seen a crocodile prey on this kind of thing, definitely doesn't know. After seeing it a few times in the future, he knows to be careful. Now I can only let me avoid accidents.

African rivers are almost full of crocodiles.

[Fuck, there are crocodiles in the underground river? 】

【Fang Shen, are you kidding me? 】

The probability is very small, but it's not impossible, because you don't know whether this underground river is connected to a surface river, or whether a crocodile that is good at holding its breath accidentally broke in here.

Bi Fang raised the torch, shining it on the water, and checked the environment on the shore to see if there were reptile footprints.

A normal crocodile dives into the water for about 10-15 minutes each time, but if it is to avoid danger, the diving time can reach 30 minutes.

In extreme cases, most crocodiles can dive for close to two hours, and the larger the crocodile, the longer the time limit.

It's different from the way we like to take a deep breath when we hold our breath, and then store the air to prolong the hold time. The crocodile doesn't look at this inefficient way at all. Even before diving, the crocodile will empty the air in the lungs, Their main breath-holding ability relies on their extreme heart-rate regulation.

During diving, the heart rate of crocodiles can drop to 2-3 per minute, which makes their body's oxygen consumption drop sharply during diving.

In addition, the length of crocodile diving is also closely related to the water temperature. A study once found that in a nearly frozen river, there are crocodiles that have held their breath for more than 8 hours and are still alive.

Therefore, some crocodiles in surface rivers have the possibility to enter underground rivers.

However, there are no traces nearby, so it should be safe.

After walking around the shore, Bi Fang did not find any trace of the crocodile here, so he no longer stopped Harley from drinking water.

With no constraints, Harley, who had been thirsty for a long time, was finally able to drink in the river.

Bi Fang also took some water from a kettle, and when Harley was full, he went outside and lit a fire to boil. Afterwards, he wrapped clothes with water and kept shaking to cool down quickly. When it was around 60 or 70 degrees, he didn't care about getting hot, and took a small sip. Drink up.

As the fresh water moisturized his body, Bi Fang suddenly felt refreshed and felt much more refreshed.

Repeated many times, Bi Fang was not satisfied until he drank two pots of water.

However, the water resources were solved, and another problem appeared.

hungry.

From yesterday to now, Bi Fang and Harley haven't eaten any food.

Look around for animal footprints.

Bi Fang grinned, Maybe we can just sit back and wait.

The ears of a praying mantis grow on the part between the hind foot and the base joint of the middle foot, that is, the waist
