Chapter 252
Chapter 252
Deep, secluded jungle, lush vegetation, you can't even tell which is the growing trunk and which is the hanging vine without looking closely.
The sunlight shines through the dense foliage and scatters on the shrubs, leaving mottled marks.
You can't see a bird, but you can always hear an unknown bird's call.
There is also an indescribable smell of acid and putrefaction in the air.
At this time, the jungle is similar to the past, but it is a little different!
Perhaps it was because the drought lasted too long.
They didn't go far when they came across a corpse.
I smelled the smell of corpses far away.
Jiang Yao and Tang Xiaoguo both covered their mouths and noses, and Shen Bing also frowned.
Washing a clean cloth, dripping a few drops of flower dew, and covering the mouth and nose can effectively reduce the magic damage of rancid smell.
Lu Zhe asked Yaoyao Guo'er to stay in place, he and Sister Bing covered their noses, carefully touched it, and did not go far, they saw the corpse of an animal.
It is about 50 centimeters, like a pig, but much longer than a pig's nose.
Its upper limbs and head are black, as are its lower limbs and tail, except for the middle part is white.
At this moment, a large number of flies are lying on its body, and a large number of fat maggot babies in the mouth and nose are twisting their bodies happily.
Shen Bing looked at it: "You have such a wide range of knowledge, do you know what this is?"
Lu Zhe didn't want to touch it, but through its appearance, and then looking up the relevant introduction in the survival manual, he could basically judge: "It should be the dream-eating beast in the Mountain and Sea Scripture!"
"Don't talk nonsense, there's that kind of thing?"
"How can the ancestors deceive people? In fact, it is a species of tapir, which usually lives in puddles. How did you get here? "
Lu Zhe also feels a little wrong!
He pondered for a while and put forward a conjecture: "Originally, it lived in the mudflats below, perhaps because the mudflats dried up, or because of the water predators and competitors, it had to think of other places to find water, but it didn't expect to run here and die of thirst."
Shen Bing nodded: "There are no wounds on the body that have been attacked!" It's a pity that a few more steps will find the stream.
Then, Lu Zhe took out a small plastic bottle and rubbed maggots with the bark of the tree and loaded it in.
"What do you do?"
While collecting maggots, Lu Zhe said: "Yaoyao loves fishing, I will get some maggots to give her as bait, I will surprise her later!"
Shen Bing was stunned: "Send maggots to girls, Lu Zhe, you are too talented, but I advise you not to do that?!"
"Why?"
"Yaoyao loves cleanliness so much, you send a bunch of maggots to people, aren't you afraid to scare people to cry?"
Lu Zhe thought for a while: "It's the same!"
Saying that, Lu Zhe made half a bottle of maggots, pierced a breathable hole in the bottle cap, and then screwed the lid: "Then I will use it myself!" "
Let's go!" The two people left the body, found Jiang Yao and Guo'er, and continued to walk deep into the jungle.
When they reached the creek, they found more and more animal tracks!
Monkeys, squirrels, goats, wild boars, and birds of paradise!
Colorful feathers, flying and gliding through the primeval jungle.
Tang Xiaoguo grinded Lu Zhe and wanted to grab two and take them back, but Lu Zhe decisively refused!
Coming to the mountain stream, I also saw a dark brown wild deer drinking water by the mountain stream, and not far from it, there was a wild boar.
Sure enough, the water attracted a lot of wildlife.
They saw Lu Zhe, as if they saw a terrible predator, sensitively escaped to the jungle!
This made Lu Zhe ponder: "Is it so scary for me to love nature and small animals?" "
Well, none of that matters!
Lu Zhe noticed a gratifying thing, that is, the flow of mountain streams did not decrease due to drought, but increased!
Lu Zhe conjectured that the strong force of the warm current and the confluence of magma at the bottom of the volcano increased the evaporation of water in the mountain, and then filtered and cooled by the rock and gravel in the mountain, resulting in the final collection of water flow larger than the original!
This is good news!
In other words, no matter how hot the weather is, the fresh water resources of the volcanic island will not be exhausted.
It's a pity that the temperature of the hot spring water is still around 60-70 degrees, and there is no way to reach the bottom of the fire volcano through the hot spring, and I don't know what happened to the planted plants?
Several people couldn't take a bath, so they had to wash their faces at the mountain stream.
Compared to the stream in the camp ditch, the stream here is more sweet, not at all like the evaporated water!
Jiang Yao and Guo'er took off their shoes and happily soaked their feet in the stream.
Some unknown little fish swam over and gently pecked and kissed their feet, making the two girls giggle!
"Haha, I have found a new business opportunity again!"
"I know! We can open a fish spa shop after we go back!
"Yes, the small fish here are much more comfortable to nibble on than in the store."
"Did you say so, Lu Zhe?"
Lu Zhe didn't speak, he was thinking about other questions:
"The hot spring water is sixty or seventy degrees, and the water here is only about twenty degrees, what will happen if the water in the mountain stream is led to the hot spring pool?"
Shen Bing's eyes also lit up: "The water temperature here may decrease?"
"That's right!"
"You can try it!"
However, when Lu Zhe came to the hot spring cave again, he became worried again.
The hot air coming out of the hot spring cave is getting stronger, and the smell of sulfur is getting louder!
Shen Bing was a little worried: "Can this still go in?" "
I'll try!"
He covered his mouth and nose and burrowed into the hole, only to feel the steam burning his skin itching.
If it weren't for him, another girl would come in and be burned.
Look at the hot spring pool at this time, purring and bubbling.
Lu Zhe did not touch it with his hands, but estimated that the temperature was close to 80 degrees!
He hurried out.
The three girls all gathered around: "How is it?" Lu Zhe?
"The temperature of the hot spring is already close to 80 degrees!"
Tang Xiaoguo was worried: "Is the volcano about to erupt?"
"Nope! I guess because of the drought, there will be no great danger, but it is a little difficult to enter the bottom of the volcano!
Jiang Yao said worriedly: "The only sweet potato vine is still inside, it has not been watered for so many days, it will die of drought!"
Shen Bing said: "Lu Zhe, or try that method!" "
Hmm!" Lu Zhe nodded and began to prepare.
Cut the thick bamboo, split it in the middle, remove the bamboo partition as a sink, stack them one by one from high to low, and use bamboo sticks and stones to set up, which easily attracts water from the mountain stream.
The mountain stream flows along the bamboo trough, turns a corner and enters the hot spring cave, and flows into the hot spring pool.
Then Lu Zhe looked at his watch: "Come back and see if the water temperature does not change, if it drops below 50 degrees, I will venture into it once!" Now, let's go to the lake and get some fish back! "
Got to the lake.
Looking at the lush vegetation by the lake, Lu Zhe decided to carve out a place suitable for fishing!
At the same time in the camp, the two girls encountered new trouble!
A terrifying chicken attacked the camp and attacked the two young girls.
The two girls screamed in fright, raised their guns in a hurry and missed the shot, so they had to run to the fire.
But this chicken is not afraid of fire at all, and rushes straight towards them!
