Chapter 645: The Great Failure to Survive in the Wilderness (Part 1)
Facts have proven that there is no doubt that Batman is the father of the DC editorial department. No matter what environment or situation he is in, Batman has his own way out.
After throwing all the prepared fishing traps to Arthur, Bruce began to use the remaining fiber ropes and wooden sticks to make a rope ladder. The rope ladder could be lowered from the platform of the cave, so that there was no need to follow the protrusion of the rock wall.
Go down bit by bit.
After making the rope ladder, Bruce made another set of metal tools, which were much stronger than the metal pieces Arthur smashed with stones. The metal parts were ground very sharp, and the shape and size were just right. The wooden handles were carefully measured.
, in line with the way of exerting force, the wood has also been polished, and it is very easy to hold.
To make good tools, of course you have to consider using them to improve the living conditions here. Hal saw Bruce busy there all the time. He walked over and asked: "How did you get here? Do you fly a plane? Your plane
Where?"
"What do you want to do?" Bruce raised his eyes, looked at Hal with a rather wary look, and said: "The crash log of the Bat fighter I lent you shows that you crashed in my plane...
…”
"How is that possible! The button was clearly pressed by Schiller!" Hal raised his voice. As a result, he saw Bruce's "Sure enough" expression. Hal shook his head in annoyance, knowing that he had been lied to again.
"So, you really flew here, then why do you stay here?" Hal asked.
"Then why do you want to stay here?" Bruce asked.
Hal glanced at Schiller who was still treating Oliver's wounds, sighed and said, "If I say I don't want to stay here, can you fly back with me?"
The movement of Bruce's hand paused for a moment, and Elsa's terrifying screams began to echo in his ears again. Yes, after the initial language learning, Elsa recently started to connect words to form sentences.
When it comes to vocabulary and grammar at the beginning, a problem will inevitably arise. If you want Elsa to understand what a word means, you must use the corresponding graphic card. When Elsa discovers something on the picture
When she can express it in words, she will point at everything in sight and ask "What is this?"
The greatest kindness that human cubs show their parents is that they need to rest. They will be so sleepy and have snot bubbles in their noses after they have been noisy for a few hours at most. Unlike Kaisa, she doesn't even have this small kindness. She will not be tired at all.
As the first person in the world who may have truly defeated Batman, Elsa was not proud of this, because soon, she provided Batman with another problem, that is, how to defeat Batman.
Teach a creature of chaos correct grammar?
Grammar is the most important part of a language. Many adults, even if they have been using this language for decades, sometimes are confused about many grammatical issues.
As for Elsa, she had some creative ideas about English grammar. After Bruce tried to correct them to no avail, he felt that he needed some free time to think carefully about what he had learned in English over the years.
Therefore, even though the Bat Fighter was parked in a corner of this isolated island, Bruce did not hesitate at all and devoted himself wholeheartedly to survival on the desert island. At least the straw rope in his hand would not make a terrible cry.
Bruce ignored Hal. He turned around, kicked the rope he had prepared, threw it off the platform, and then began to drive stone piles into the ground to fix the rope ladder.
After confirming that the rope ladder was solid and could be used directly, Bruce started to think about transportation.
First of all, the rock cave in the upper reaches of the creek is still relatively far from the seaside. According to his estimated fishing trap working efficiency, they will go to the seaside about every 6 hours to carry all the fish on their backs.
return.
If the salt drying field is also set up at the seaside, it means that they have to go to the seaside to transport salt. Calculating that the round trip takes about half an hour, several hours may be wasted on the round trip every day.
Batman is a hopeless efficiencyist. He came to survive on a desert island, but his mind is filled with innovations in productivity and improvements in efficiency.
Looking at the palm tree bark that had been peeled off before, Bruce fell into deep thought. After a while, he called Hal over and said: "Let's crush these barks."
"Why?" Hal asked very puzzledly, but Bruce immediately started to work without explaining much. Although Hal didn't know why, he was still idle. He also took out the metal piece and started to follow the bark of the tree.
direction of the fibers, chop them into small pieces.
Use a metal piece to scrape off all the fibers inside the bark, forming a fiber mass that looks a bit like messy hair.
Bruce and Hal took the fiber balls, climbed down the rope ladder, came to the creek below, soaked the fibers in the water, and started kneading them.
After most of the fibers were evenly distributed, Bruce began to chop them up again with metal sheets, then soaked them in water and chopped them again.
After doing this several times, the filamentous fibers were almost invisible and turned into a solid sphere. Bruce, on the rocks by the stream, completely flattened the sphere and completely removed the broken fibers inside.
Spread it out until it forms a fibrous fabric like cloth.
Hal could only imitate the cat, but because of his strong strength, he made it more broken than Bruce, and the final fiber fabric was thinner.
After spreading them out, Bruce left them to dry on the flat stone. Hal also took a photo of his results. He asked: "Now, can you tell me what you are going to do?"
"I'm going to do a hang glider."
Bruce stretched out a hand and pointed behind Hal. Hal looked back and saw that it was the rock wall they were on, and the cliff above the cave.
That is the highest point on the island. Judging from Hal's experience as a pilot, if you really stand on that point and glide downwards, you should be able to reach the beaches around the island without any effort.
As we all know, if there is a flying tool on a desert island, you can basically come and go freely. However, making airplanes with bare hands basically only exists in various literary and artistic works. There are no objective conditions on this island to create
Technological items with machine tool processing and above levels.
However, the most important thing about an airplane is actually the power. If the power is omitted and only the gliding part is left, it will be much simpler.
It just so happened that the terrain where they were located was very high, and they could completely use the height difference to make up for the distance. As long as they could land smoothly, at least the time required to get to the beach would be negligible.
Hal lowered his head again, looked at the fiber fabric, and asked: "So, you are planning to use this as a flying wing for a hang glider?"
"There are no large animals on this island, so you can't get animal skins, otherwise animal skins are the best choice. However, animal skins must also undergo some processing before they can be used. I'm not sure if there are such raw materials here, so I still
It’s better to use fiber.”
Hal reached out and poked the fabric and found that the moisture inside disappeared very quickly. He raised his head and looked at the sky after the tropical storm, and then said: "After the storm, there is often a very fierce sun. It seems that it is very hot."
It will be dry soon."
At this time, Bruce had already stood up and walked towards the cave. He said: "At this time, we need to make more, at least two hang gliding wings, so that we can save more than half of the time."
On the way back, Bruce said: "Compared to cloth, this is more like making paper. It's just because it doesn't need the writing function, so it doesn't need to be very flat. Instead, we should focus on improving toughness and strength..."
"You seem to be very experienced?" Hal looked at Bruce's young face and asked, "Where did you learn so many things?"
Bruce didn't speak, and just walked straight towards the cave. Hal shook his head, sighed, and followed.
In addition to solving the problem of the flying wing, they also needed to make the skeleton. The two people dried all the fiber fabrics on the big rocks next to the creek. While waiting for the raw materials of the flying wing to dry, Bruce began to build the skeleton.
Since the strength of the flying wings made of fiber will be relatively low, the skeleton becomes the top priority. Bruce used a wooden stick to draw a design on the sand. Hal was confused. After a long time, he asked: "Can I help?"
What are you busy with?"
"It's not needed now." Bruce said while drawing, and Hal continued to ask: "When will it be needed?"
"You'll find out later."
When the first assembled hang glider was brought to the top of the cliff, standing on the top of the cliff, Bruce and Hal looked at each other. Bruce handed the hang glider to Hal and said, "The time has come."
Hal took a look at the hang glider. It was not a traditional delta wing, but more like a pentagon, with a very complicated skeleton. When Bruce made this skeleton, Hal didn't understand the principle at all.
, so he said: "Can you explain to me the principle of this thing first? I always feel uneasy..."
"Do you know how airplanes work?"
"Uh, I don't know..." Hal replied with some embarrassment. Although he knew various aircraft models and performed well in actual flights, it would definitely be impossible for him to manufacture aircraft engines. He
I have never studied any related majors, and I can’t even understand professional terms.
"Does this prevent you from becoming a pilot?" Bruce asked again.
Hal sighed, helplessly put the hang glider on his back, pulled the thick rope woven on it and fixed it.
"Relax, if you can't land smoothly, you can still fly by yourself." Bruce said, although it sounded like comforting, it was more like a threat.
Hal held the handle below, stamped his feet, and then quickly accelerated and rushed out.
Fortunately, the situation of falling headfirst did not happen. The hang glider glided smoothly, but it was a little too smooth.
It wasn't until he reached the target beach that Hal realized two things.
The first is that Bruce's technical level is very trustworthy, and the hang glider can fly very far.
The second is that Bruce's technical level was a bit beyond imagination. Until he reached the beach, the hang glider showed no intention of stopping.
At this time, Arthur, who had already set up a fishing trap on the white beach, was picking up shells with a small woven bamboo basket, and occasionally used a wooden stick to lift stones to look for small crabs underneath.
Suddenly, he felt a shadow approaching him. When he looked up, he saw the glider and Hal rushing towards him. Hal shouted:
"Get out of the way!"
"
Arthur rolled on the spot to avoid the diving Hal. Hearing a "bang", Hal fell headlong into the sea.
The flying sea water splashed all over Arthur. After wiping his face, he saw a familiar figure appearing near the coast. It was a black and white creature. It was the killer whale that had sent Schiller here before.
.
At this time, the killer whale was shaking its head and tail. It could be seen from the ripples in the water that he seemed to be accumulating strength. Arthur quickly stretched out his hand and shouted:
"Oh! No! Wait! Don't..."
"boom!"
"oh!
"
Arthur turned his head and saw Hal who was photographed on the beach like a drowned rat. Then he looked at the culprit's tail that had not been retracted. He shook his head and sighed.
