Infinite Disaster Survival.

Wen Zheng's hair was disheveled, and he squatted in front of the pile of firewood. After several minutes passed, he stretched out his right index finger in a daze, and pulled it back suddenly as soon as he touched it.

To be honest, he is a little confused now.

Who would have thought that the bird eggs picked up yesterday would hatch today?

After waking up in the morning, his eyes were still sleepy, Wen Zheng turned his head and looked at the place where the firewood was piled up. After blinking and rubbing his hands twice, he was sure it was not his illusion, and ran over without even wearing shoes.

The newly hatched chick in front of me didn't even open its eyes, and it has soft yellow fetal feathers all over its body. However, the fetal feathers don't seem to be very warm. The chick is curled up on the broken eggshell and doesn't even move. It looks like As if frozen to death.

The residual temperature on the index finger made Wen Zheng sure that it was still alive. It seems that this kind of bird living on the island is very tenacious.Perhaps because of the touch just now, the curled up chick suddenly moved its head in the direction of Wen Zheng, and its tiny paws trembled.

Just this tiny movement woke Wen Zheng up. He hurriedly grabbed a coconut shell, stuffed some dry leaves and weeds into it, and put it on the ground.The movement became gentle before touching the chick. He carefully held the chick in his hands and gently put it into the coconut shell, and then covered the chick with a dead leaf.

The temperature in the cave was not low, but Wen Zheng still added a few more branches to the pit, and the flames quickly became strong.The chick moved its head again, opening and closing its mouth, it was hungry and looking for food.

"What should I do next? Without the mother bird to feed it, can I feed it alone?" Wen Zheng didn't have the idea of ​​giving up the chick at all, he needed a partner so much.

He anxiously walked around in the cave, looking for something useful: "It's time to try, I want to prepare a comfortable and warm nest for it, and food that the chicks can eat. The food intake of the chicks is not enough. If they are small, they may starve to death if they are not fed within a day, so we must get some soft food as much as possible."

"Food is really a big problem. There is no bird feed, not even millet." Wen Zheng put the shells filled with water on the fire to heat up, rubbing his right thumb and index finger unconsciously. Recalling his childhood experience of raising pigeons, he considered Everything in the cave, put broken eggshells, ripe plantains, and clams in bamboo tubes in front of them.

He could only take a risk and try.

The stones are washed with water, and the eggshells are placed on top of them and crushed into a fine powder. When feeding birds, eggshell powder is often added. Eggshell powder can supplement calcium, so that the birds will not have cartilage. sick.

Chicks usually eat fruits and vegetables, but there are weeds outside the cave. Wen Zheng remembers someone feeding the chicks with mashed bananas. He peeled the plantains and made them into mashed bananas.

After hesitating for a long time, Wen Zheng still picked out the clam meat and smashed it into fine minced meat with a stone. The digestion ability of chicks is usually quite strong, and the minced meat can supplement protein.

Split the bamboo into thin bamboo slices that are narrower than the bird’s beak, and grind the two sections as round as possible. The water in the shells has been heated and warmed up. Pour the prepared eggshell powder, plantain puree, and minced meat into it, and stir them into a paste with the bamboo slices. .

When the coconut shell chicks opened their mouths, Wen Zheng picked some of them with bamboo slices and quickly fed them.

Eat it!

Wen Zheng held back his excitement and fed them patiently. He waited until the chick had an obvious bulge on the right neck, and the chick's mouth no longer opened, which meant that it was temporarily full. Keep warm.

The young bird digests food very quickly, and usually needs to be fed every two hours, which greatly limits Wen Zheng's range of activities.Facing this kind of restriction, Wen Zheng was willing, and even couldn't help worrying, if he left the cave, would other animals come to look for food.

There is food in the cave that can last for several days. Wen Zheng made up his mind to stay in the cave for the time being. It happened that he was overworked yesterday. He cleaned up the wild boars first, and then brought back a lot of bamboo, so his body was a little tired.

This is the seventh day of survival on a deserted island, and Wen Zheng started his daily life of raising birds at home.

Living in a cave does not mean doing nothing. Wen Zheng feeds the chicks every day, cleans the nest made of coconut shells, and taking care of the newborn chicks is not easy. He eats a lot every day, gets hungry quickly, and maintains the nest clean.

Three days later, the chick was able to stand up from the nest, but fell down after taking two steps. Wen Zheng smiled warmly when he saw it, and he was sure that the bird he raised had survived.

Now the chicks eat a lot more, and the daily feeding interval has changed from two hours to five hours, and when Wen Zheng is feeding, the chicks will automatically move their beaks towards Wen Zheng’s, and sometimes their beaks will touch Wen Zheng’s. The itching and numbness of the fingers melted Wen Zheng's heart.

Touching its head with his fingers, Wen Zheng's eyes were full of tenderness, and he said with a smile: "You can survive the roughness I raised, and you escaped from the wild boar and my mouth successively. The vitality is really tenacious, and you will accompany it later. Let me live well. Although I don’t know what kind of bird you are, but looking at your chubby ball, um... the ball is definitely as good as its name.”

On the tenth day of survival on a deserted island, the chick stood up to get its name, and Wen Zheng gained a little friend named Tuantuan.

A lot of changes have taken place in the cave. The rain shelter made of thick bamboo leans against the outside, and its width completely blocks the entrance of the cave. It can block the wind and rain without hindering the flow of air.The lower end is cut into a slope and buried deep in the soil, and the upper end is stuck under the stone eaves, so it is difficult to shake even if there is a strong wind.

The rocks, the rain cover, and the ground form a triangular space, allowing the air to circulate smoothly. Wen Zheng then used two rows of bamboo rows about half a meter high on both sides to make a movable door. It is a palm vine with sharp and hard thorns, which is used to prevent the attack of wild animals.

The bamboo slide was also fixed. The lower end was blocked by a large rock between the slide and the rock, and the upper end was tied to the raised rock in the cave with a rope. Wen Zheng went up and down the cave much more conveniently.

Bamboos of different thicknesses were combined and fixed with ropes. There were shelves, bamboo tables and stools in the cave, and extra bamboo mats on the ground. Wen Zheng also made a cattail fan out of palm leaves.

The earthen stove was moved to the entrance of the cave, and built with stones and earth against the mountain wall to look more like a fireplace. The smoke hole faces the outside of the cave, and the smoke goes out to the hanging bacon, which is blocked by bamboo rafts.

"Chichi." The cry sounded in the cave.

Wen Zheng put down the straw sandals he was weaving in his hand, picked up the paste with a smile and looked sideways: "I'm hungry again."

He has been in contact with Wen Zheng since he was born, and Wen Zheng feeds him every day. Tuantuan regards Wen Zheng as his parents.The bird's nest was placed next to Wen Zheng, and Tuantuan was generally quiet, only calling at Wen Zheng when he was hungry.

"Stay inside after eating, don't make a sound or move, I don't know if it's lazy or cold." Wen Zheng poked Tuantuan's head with a smile, even though he was only a few days old, he could almost tell his personality.

After Tuan Tuan was full, he stared at Wen Zheng's movements with his bean-sized eyes, and soon fell asleep. Just like a human baby, the chick is always sleeping. It absorbs the energy of food in its sleep and develops as soon as possible.

Wen Zheng continued to ponder with the straw rope, he wanted to weave a pair of straw sandals out of the straw rope.The sneakers under my feet are of good quality, and they haven’t worn much after wearing them for so many days, but they are not as suitable as straw sandals because they are easy to get in water when they go to the beach.

Straw sandals are usually made of straw, but Wen Zheng uses a rope made of coconut shell fiber, which is very strong, but less comfortable.I tried many times before, but basically it became loose after wearing it for a long time, and I couldn't wear it out at all, but after so many attempts, Wen Zheng figured out a way.

Holding a four-pronged wooden stick, use four ropes to cross them continuously. The last four ropes are divided into two strands from the top and passed through the gaps in the bottom floor to become a pair of straw flip flops.

Wen Zheng put on these straw sandals and walked around the cave, standing in front of the cave entrance and looking at the scenery outside.

The outside of the bamboo rafts at the entrance of the cave is hung pigskin. The pigskin is hung outside and exposed to the sun and wind every day. When it is [-]% to [-]% dry, it still has an unpleasant smell and is very hard to the touch.If you want to make the animal's fur smooth and soft, you need to carry out nitrification treatment.

There used to be wild boars in my hometown that ran down the mountain to harm food. After the village cadres took the lead in solving the problem, the pigskins were tanned by the elderly in the village.There are many methods of tanning, the simplest and most suitable for Wenzheng should be treated with plant ash first, and then smoked.

It must be thoroughly dried before tanning. In the past few days, the [-]% to [-]% dry pigskin is spread on the ground every night, pressed on it with stones to make it flat, and then hung outside to dry during the day, and so on until the pigskin is completely dry. Let dry before proceeding to the next step.

The No. 14 days of survival on a deserted island soon ushered in.

This is the morning when the sun has just risen, the temperature has not yet risen, and the sea is full of waves. It is a good time to go out to collect firewood, and come back at night to get some food.

Wen Zheng put the paste in front of Tuantuan, even though Tuantuan could peck insects and eat them by himself, he was still worried about handling them.

While watching Tuantuan pecking at himself, Wen Zheng babbled at it: "We have almost eaten up everything at home, and the dry firewood is about to be burned. Today we are going out to find supplies. Are you going out with me?" , or stay at home by yourself? Is it dangerous to stay at home, you can't even fly, I'd better take you with you. "

The composition of the paste had changed a long time ago. After eating the eggshell powder, Wen Zheng ground the clam shells into a fine powder.The minced clam meat turned into the small insects that Wen Zheng found in the weeds outside the cave. There was no shortage of plantain puree, and occasionally some dried bamboo shoot powder was added.

Tuantuan's population should have a very short growth period. In just seven days, the body size has become much larger, and the body has become thinner and thinner. It can stand up steadily and walk a few steps, but it is no longer as cute as the name, but reveals a bit handsome. .

In addition to work, Wen Zheng observes the changes in Tuantuan every day, wishing to have a mobile phone to take pictures.

"Chichi!" After a few pecks, Tuantuan let out a cry, thumping and running to Wen Zheng's body, and dropped two fetal feathers, Tuantuan had already reached the moulting period.

"Oh, Tuantuan wants to go out with me, so you have to be obedient." Wen Zheng smiled happily. He tied the newly made small bamboo basket around his waist with a rope, and then took the coconut bird's nest with him. Put the ball inside.

With straw sandals on his feet, a bamboo fork in his hand, and the ax in the bamboo basket behind his back, Wen Zheng left the cave and headed for the beach not far away.
