Chapter 41 Xanadu

Surviving in the jungle, the acquisition of drinking water is more important than food. When hungry, the human body can consume the energy stored in fat to maintain physiological functions, but in a state of lack of water, the human body cannot replenish itself.

In hot areas, if there is no water, the normal function of the human body can last for a short time, because constant sweating will cause a large amount of water to be lost. Even in colder areas, in order to maintain normal physiological functions, at least two liters of water are required every day.

There are many ways to obtain water sources. You can tie grass rings or fabrics on your ankles and walk into the grass to absorb dew from the grass leaves. This method can obtain a full liter of water every hour. You can also find streams that flow down from the mountains, but the stream water often contains excessive microorganisms and parasites, so be sure to boil or use potassium permanganate tablets to disinfect the water source before use.

Therefore, the most direct and effective method is to find plant tubers that can be eaten directly, or water sources stored in the plants. Palm family plants such as fan-shaped palms, Nippam, and Pole Vine all contain more water. If the leaves of these plants close to the ground are broken, clean water that can be directly consumed will seep out from the cracks.

However, Luo Hao did not go all out to find these palm plants, because he had a better goal, the lush green bamboo forest. The diameter of this green bamboo is about ten centimeters. When it rains, these beads will absorb a lot of water and store it in his own bamboo joints. This water stored in the bamboo joints can not only avoid disinfection and filtering and drink directly, but also this water also carries the unique fragrance of green bamboo. In the eyes of border guards, this is the purest gift given to them by nature.

Luo Hao chose a few green bamboos without insect eyes, and used the shark serrations behind the dragon-toothed saber to saw off the bamboo joints and put them into the backpack behind him. When looking for Yun Xi in the morning, Luo Hao heard the sound of water flowing around the valley, so he determined that there must be flowing streams around him.

Special forces with experience in the wild will carry several condoms like Luo Hao when they survive in the jungle. Of course, this is not to have a thrilling field battle in the quiet night, but to fill water. A condom that passes the quality can fill one liter of water.

After solving the problem of water source, Luo Hao faced food next. He had no bows and arrows, nor did he have the ability to shoot arrows within a hundred steps, but he knew how to survive in the jungle and could obtain food in other ways.

When looking for wild vegetables in the grass, several mushrooms that were gnawed by ants, and Luo Hao took them into his backpack without hesitation; when passing by a fruit tree, the green and yellow wild fruits growing on it were also accepted by Luo Hao. A snake entrenched on the branches was cut into several "duck necks" and stuffed into the backpack, regardless of whether it was poisonous or not.

When Luo Hao came out of the woods, his backpack was already filled with bulging bags. Just as he returned with a full load and was about to return to the cave, the fish swimming in the deep pool of waist-high water attracted his attention.

Fish are rich in unsaturated fats and proteins, and are one of the important food sources when surviving in the wild. There are many ways to catch fish, you can choose to make simple fishing rods and fish spears.

Luo Hao had no intention of making a fishing rod to guard the pool to cultivate his sentiment, so he chose to use a harpoon directly to catch fish. Cut off a branch, sharpen one of the pieces, and then tied his dragon-toothed saber to it. Luo Hao had a sharp harpoon in his book.

Because of the refraction of light in the water, it is time to sting at the lower part of the fish. This is not the first time Luo Hao dares to do this. He is very experienced in doing it. In just over ten minutes, he caught five or six fish more than half a foot long.

When leaving the cave, in order to prevent wild beasts from attacking Yun Xi in the cave, Luo Hao deliberately blocked the entrance of the cave with stones. When he returned to the cave, Luo Hao, who was about to move the stones, suddenly discovered that there were two dead rabbits in the grass next to him. There were obvious tooth marks on the rabbit's neck. Judging from the blood stains that had not yet dried out on the rabbit's body, the two rabbits were captured and died for no more than an hour.

Of course, Luo Hao didn't believe that these two fat hares fell from the sky because of their character. Looking around, they finally found a familiar white shadow in the woods. They took a whole roasted rabbit from Luo Hao at noon. This wolf is so humane and knows how to repay his kindness.

Since the hare was sent by the white wolf, Luo Hao was not polite. He picked up the two rabbits and bowed to the white wolf to show his gratitude. Seeing Luo Hao bringing the hare back to the cave, the white wolf who had been guarding the woods let out a low roar, turned around and disappeared into the dense forest.

"Luo Hao, I'm thirsty!" Seeing Luo Hao return, Yun Xi, who was sitting on the haystack, said to him with confidence.

Luo Hao took out the condom filled with water from his backpack and handed it to her, "Drink it."

"You actually put water in such a thing, it's so disgusting, I don't want it." Yun Xi turned his head and refused the "water bag" handed over by Luo Hao.

"What are you afraid of? You have never used it. Can you get pregnant after drinking it? Do you like it or not." Although Luo Hao said this verbally, he took out a piece of green bamboo joint from his backpack, drilled a small hole in the bamboo joint with a knife, then inserted a thin bamboo tube, and handed it to Yun Xi: "Hey, it's pure and natural, it's definitely not worse than Eyun."

Yun Xi took the bamboo joint doubtfully, bit the thin bamboo tube Yun and took a sip. When the "Yiyun" with the unique fragrance of bamboo flowed into his mouth, Yun Xi immediately fell in love with this smell.

The supper was also prepared by Luo Hao. Saw the finished bamboo joints into two pieces, set them on the fire as a pot, pour water, throw them in wild fish and mushrooms, and make a pot of fragrant fish soup. Use a knife to make a small cut of the green bamboo joints, pour in the rice, salt, and rabbit meat prepared at the departure time, and stuff the cut into small pieces with cotton balls dipped in water to throw the cut into the fire and grill it. In half an hour, the discolored bamboo joints were taken out of the fire and split them with a knife, which is the special snack of the Dai people.

When sleeping, the only haystack in the cave was naturally occupied by the wounded Yun Xi, while Luo Hao wrapped himself in a blanket and leaned against the stone wall to rest. Originally, Yun Xi asked Luo Hao to sleep on the haystack, but Luo Hao said that he was not Liu Xiahui and did not have such good determination to reject Yun Xi's kindness.

Luo Hao had no map in his hand, and Yun Xi's injury also needed time to recover, so while other students were busy looking for the token marked on the map, Luo Hao lived a paradise with their goddess.
