Live Wilderness Adventure

Chapter 874 Bread

comfortable!

Bi Fang took a bite of the meat, and the tenderloin was close to the spine, often stretched without any fascia, so it became very tender, and the taste exploded in one bite.

The faint smoke lingered in front of the lips and teeth, dispelling the slight cold of the prairie at night.

The fresh water in the wooden bowl on the side has also become warm, and he picked it up and took a sip. His whole body was comfortable, like a breath of fresh air from the top of the sky to the tailbone.

The cheetah Harley next to him let out a meow, but Bi Fang didn't share the meat with him.

This guy has only eaten raw at noon, and now he is completely greedy, so don't worry about it.

After eating all the meat skewers on the whole branch, Bi Fang's abdomen was a little swollen, and it was rare to eat good food. If he accidentally craved too much, the whole stomach would work faster, turning the meat into energy, and pouring it into the limbs continuously. skeleton.

It was still a little cold when the night just fell, but now it is actually hot, and there is a tendency to want to sweat.

【Eating meat and drinking water (funny)】

【Envious, outdoor barbecue】

【This is the real boss, if you go to the wild and don't get eaten, it's already a victory】

The sky was dotted with stars, and Bi Fang, who had a wild barbecue under the envy of the audience, came to two pieces of dry deerskins and scraped them repeatedly with a small wooden chip to ensure that no fat and subcutaneous tissue remained.

This improves the quality of the entire leather for a final softer touch.

After finishing all this, Bi Fang added some firewood, adjusted the position of the skins to ensure that they would not burn, then took out the wooden bowl, poured in water and fat, and prepared to boil some fat.

Animals are full of treasures, and the two wildebeest have greatly enriched Bi Fang's material, whether it is food or tools.

The wooden bowl rack is grilled on the fire, and Bi Fang pulls out the excess meat tissue, tie it with a tree rope, and hang it over the campfire for smoking.

The daytime temperature in the African savannah is about 20 degrees. If you don’t do some treatment on the food at this temperature, it will be easy to spoil, and you won’t be able to eat it. Especially, there are so many kinds of mosquitoes on the grassland. If you get bitten, you may have serious problems. Unknown viruses and parasite eggs entered the meat.

Mosquitoes in Africa are notorious, so we should try to avoid staying by rivers or forests. If you are traveling, you can use insecticides appropriately, but one thing to note is that the use of insecticides will destroy The ecological environment and the enhancement of mosquito resistance, it is best to use as little as possible.”

In addition, wear light-colored long-sleeved clothes to avoid skin leakage as much as possible. If you are camping, use mosquito nets and mosquito coils. Mosquito nets soaked in insecticide work best.

If you are not a tourist, but a traveler in distress, I have actually demonstrated the corresponding method a long time ago, that is, smearing red mud, you can dig the soil, find them, simply dry, sterilize, and apply it directly on your body. For a better effect, just add spices to the red mud, or some specific plants, such as this.

Bi Fang took out a branch from his backpack, which was covered with leaves, obviously left on purpose.

When it was taken out, there was still Jerry the Gambia mouse hanging on the branch. It was obvious that it was pulling the leaves just now and didn't know what it was doing.

【what is this】

[Another plant I don't know]

[Fang Shen always picks some weird things in his backpack, maybe spices or herbs, I'm used to it. 】

It's not that if you pick it up, you will have the opportunity to explain it.

Many times, perhaps when explaining a certain knowledge point or completing a certain task, Bi Fang encountered some useful plants.

Out of the quality of a professional, I subconsciously took it out of my pocket, and didn't remember to explain it to the audience until it was about to be used, just like now.

Bi Fang found this plant not far from the place where the wildebeest group was found. It is not far away. After packing up the spoils, in order to leave as soon as possible, he picked it and left without having time to explain it to the audience.

What I have in my hand is a branch of a tree called 'anti-mosquito tree'. Its leaves contain a substance called 'citronellal', which is a natural organic mosquito repellent.

Under the action of high temperature, 'citronellal' will volatilize through the leaves and spread into the air, thereby achieving the effect of repelling mosquitoes.

Many Africans will build houses under this kind of tree to avoid mosquitoes. I guess the herd of wildebeest also thought so, and they gathered near that tree at that time.

Plants that can repel mosquitoes are often not only able to repel mosquitoes, but also some flies, lice, or other small insects.

Especially in places like the river, many animals will subconsciously go to places with fewer mosquitoes.

If you can't find the red mud, and you can't distinguish the plants, there is one last simple method, which is to find the droppings of herbivorous animals and smear them on your body, which can also achieve a similar effect. The average African It’s all cow dung.”

Bi Fang took off a few leaves of the mosquito-repelling tree, tore off the film on the upper surface, rubbed it directly on the skin, and smeared it on the skin. When the juice overflowed, a faint fragrance also appeared in the air.

The cheeks and arms, in particular, were repeatedly rubbed to ensure that enough odorous substances were contaminated.

Now, he can finally sleep soundly.

A few nights ago, the weather was cold, and Bi Fang was dressed neatly, but there was still a buzzing sound in his ears.

Waiting until the fat is also finished training, all the work is almost done, Bi Fang turns off the live broadcast, and slowly enters the dream with Harley's company.

The vitality of plants is often unbelievably luxuriant. Early the next morning, when Bi Fang looked at the grassland, he could already see a thin green color. He didn't know whether it was because of the arrival of the wet season, or with the advancement of a person and a leopard. , and gradually came to other regions.

[Morning Fangshen, what are you doing today? 】

[Do you still want to hunt? 】

The hunt is not in a hurry, our spoils haven't been packed yet.

After washing, Bi Fang poured out the solidified fat, mixed it with plant ash, and the leaves of the anti-mosquito tree, and made a bar of soap according to the proportion.

The purpose is obvious, it is used to cleanse the body.

During the journey of so many days, Bi Fang had never taken a bath, and he felt extremely uncomfortable.

But first, a water storage container is required.

African rivers cannot enter the water, and can only be washed with hot water in a container.

There are water storage containers, kettles, and stomach bags, all of which are fine, but they are too small to take a bath, and it is too troublesome to take a bath, and the stomach bag is still filled with clotted blood, let alone.

I'm going to make a clay pot, but first I need to see if there is any clay nearby.

【This scene looks familiar】

[I remember, I made it when I was smelting iron]

【Thinking about it, no wonder it looks so familiar】

[Here to see the past collection]

Bi Fang searched around the camp.

He needs a clay pot, but it's not so pretentious that he has to take a bath. The clay pot has many other uses, so it's not a waste.

Pottery making is the first craft developed in human culture. Many pots still in use are made of natural river bottom mud and the simplest manual and firing techniques. The containers you make yourself may be They are crude, but they will be your tools for cooking and eating, and for boiling water for bathing.

In the wild environment, you can't buy ready-made clay, but you can find a lot of natural materials around you.

Most of the clay is granite weathered and can be found anywhere, but it's best to dig into the creeks and look for clean clay that's not stained, because the best clay deposits in the Here.

Bi Fang came to the river yesterday, which was not the place where the hunting took place, so there was no danger after inspection, so he found a good place to dig directly, and found the clay without much effort.

Afterwards, Bi Fang also demonstrated the production process earlier, but because some people may not know it, he explained it again.

To make clay pots, the flame temperature does not need to be too high. No blast furnace or charcoal is needed. Just dig a hole and enough firewood is enough.

It is troublesome to make the shape. We can make small pots directly like handmade pots, but not big pots. If they are not round enough, they will easily break when fired. So we have a little trick, which is to knead the clay into The long and round strips are stacked layer by layer, so that to a certain extent, it can avoid bursting due to lack of roundness.

【Ah, new method】

[I have never learned this trick! 】

[It's another day of learning knowledge, take notes and take notes! 】

【Boy, watch carefully, you can learn some things】

Many viewers who watched the episode of steelmaking also aroused their curiosity.

Another brand new trick.

Whenever the audience thinks that they have learned Fang Shen's tricks, he can always come up with something novel.

Bi Fang found a clean and tidy stone slab, re-moistened the dried clay after the fire, and made it into clay. Finally, he kneaded it into long strips with his hands, and slowly piled it on the basis of a round cake of clay.

The middle of each layer of long strips should be glued carefully, preferably to the extent that no gaps can be seen, and they are integrated.

Bi Fang's technique is naturally good. During the kneading and kneading layer by layer, the whole clay pot is gradually formed, and it is completely impossible to see that this thing is stacked with long strips.

Soon, a clay pot the size of a common pickle jar slowly took shape under Bi Fang's hands.

After drying in the sun for a while, after the pot hardened, Bi Fang put it directly into the pit, filled it with dry firewood, and lit it on fire.

The color of the wet yellow clay pot faded rapidly under the baking of the flame, and when Bi Fang took it out, it was almost finished.

Normally speaking, it needs several days of drying before firing, otherwise it will be easy to break, but I pursue speed, and the raw materials are sufficient, so it doesn't take much effort to make one, so I just burn it directly, and it feels good now.

Bi Fang poured some water into it, and it didn't leak.

[Master of handcraft! 】

[A group of manual UP masters on island B feel weak compared to Fang Shen! 】

[On handwork, it has to be Fang Shen]

[Fang God taught me crafts! ! 】

[I also want to learn crafts (dog head)]

[I always feel that what you say is not serious]

[Pinch with a handle, rub flat and round]

With a large container, you can finally boil water.

It's a pity that it still needs to cool down, and it's another long wait.

For this reason, it was not until the afternoon that Bi Fang put on soap and took a fairly good warm bath.

Fortunately, there is no time display for the task, so there is no rush.

Bi Fang also plans to continue living here today, exploring around the camp to see if there is anything useful.

It's really rewarding.

An extremely huge and uncoordinated tree jumped out from the horizon and jumped into everyone's eyes.

The trunk of this tree is extremely thick and short, it looks like a whole piece of toast, and finally there are a few branches on the crown of the tree, and it is full of bird nests. The bird nests are extremely huge, are they brown? Birds come and go, looking like they've given the canopy an ugly haircut.

【Hey, I seem to have seen this tree before】

【Familiar, but can't say the name】

[I know, it's a baobab tree! 】

[Wipe, I finally saw a familiar thing]

[This bird's nest is so big! 】

【What kind of bird is this? I feel like I’ve seen it before】

[I don’t know, but I’ve seen it in the animal world]

It's a baobab tree with weaver birds on it.

Bi Fang showed a big smile, feeling happy about this scene.

Mainly because I saw another interesting creature.

Traveling in Africa often sees a tree with a large composite bird's nest. These are masterpieces of weavers. They are very similar in size and appearance to sparrows. They are often woven from grass stems, grass leaves, willow fibers, etc. The oval-shaped bird's nests hanging on the branches, because of the habit of clustering, their nests are constantly spliced ​​together, which is very spectacular.

The largest bird's nest in the world is located in a desert in South Africa. It is said that the length, width and height are 6 meters, 4 meters and 2 meters respectively. There are at least 500 nesting birds living in it. It is very scary, just like giving trees It's like wearing a hat.

【Capped my old baby】

[Damn, five hundred? ? ? 】

【This thing can live】

【How smelly it is inside】

【Novelty angle】

[Snake: Is this the cafeteria? 】

[By the way, what is a baobab tree, why don’t you explain it? 】

[I remember that the baobab tree is very useful? Is that so, Fang Shen]

That's right. Bi Fang nodded, Baobab trees are really useful. For travelers, they can not only quench their thirst, but also satisfy their hunger. Look at its trunk, isn't it?

Everyone nodded involuntarily, and Bi Fang stood under the canopy of the baobab tree, looking very small.

It is estimated that ten people may not be able to hug each other, it is ridiculously thick.

No matter where the baobab tree grows, although the trunk is very thick, in order to survive the dry season smoothly, the baobab tree is very loose in wood. It can be said that it is strong on the outside and dry on the inside, hard on the outside and soft on the inside.

This kind of wood is best for water storage. During the rainy season, it uses its thick body and soft wood to replace the root system to absorb and store a lot of water.

Its xylem is like a porous sponge, which contains a lot of water. Whenever the dry season comes, in order to reduce water evaporation, it will quickly shed all the leaves on its body. Wait until the dry season to enjoy it slowly.

When it is full of water, it will grow leaves and bloom large white flowers. It is said that it can store thousands of kilograms or more of water, and it can be called a water storage tower in the wilderness.

It's just for moisturizing. According to the information, its fruit is also very delicious and has a smell of bread. That's why the word bread is included in the name.

Bread smell?

The audience in front of the screen was a little surprised.

The lighthouse jellyfish is a small jellyfish that lives in tropical seas. Its biggest feature is that it can return from a mature state to a larvae state, and there is no limit to the number of times in this process. That is, if it is not eaten by other animals, theoretically the lighthouse jellyfish It is immortal.
