Chapter eight hundred and eighth only hear its voice
The sunrise in the Sahara is beautiful.
Choose the highest sand dune to watch the sunrise. The panoramic view allows people to clearly see the rapid changes in the color of the dunes, from black to red, and then from yellow to white, just like an animation effect rendered frame by frame.
Moreover, this change in light also has the power to make people quiet. The noisy voices just now were suddenly suppressed, leaving only silence in the world.
It felt like I was on a different planet.
Unlike the rapid sunrise, sunset is a slow process.
Because only after the sun has completely set, will the red glow of the glow be evaporated.
This usually lasts for half an hour before the sky and earth completely lose color.
Bi Fang lit the bonfire, and it became the only light from far and near, making a strong corner in the darkness and dispelling the severe cold.
The flame burns quietly, without the crackling sound of ordinary firewood being burned. It can be seen that what is burning is a completely different kind of fuel. If you get closer, you can find that it is some compressed small cylinders like biomass particle boards.
"Camel dung is the perfect fuel. Thanks to the special structure of camels, camel dung has almost no moisture and has the characteristics of hay, making it an excellent fuel."
Camels are extremely thirsty and can lose up to 30-40% of their body weight without causing any harm.
In comparison, if the human body loses 2% of water, the mouth and tongue will be dry; if the body loses 5% of water, it will be irritable; if the body loses 10% of water, symptoms of dehydration will appear; if the body loses 15% of water, it will cause coma. When the water loss reaches 20
%, it will be life-threatening.
This bug-like ability is very rare in the entire nature, and its appearance naturally does not come out of thin air.
There are many extremely thin and tortuous tubes in the camel's nose. Normally, the tubes are moistened by liquid. When the body is short of water, the tubes immediately stop secreting liquid and form a layer of hard skin on the surface of the tubes, which is used to absorb exhaled moisture without causing damage to the body.
Lost outside the body; when inhaling, the water in the crust can be returned to the body.
Unlike other animals, water will turn into urine and be excreted soon after drinking it. On the contrary, it will adjust the absorption speed of water and control its own urination according to its own situation.
If you drink too much water, you will be unable to hold back and go to the toilet. This does not happen with camels.
The urine it excretes is concentrated, but it does not suffer from uremia; the feces are granular and can be burned directly after being cooled for a while, but it does not cause constipation. Even the resistance of red blood cells to osmotic dissolution is stronger than that of cattle and horses.
A lot, and it won't have much biological impact when dehydration of the plasma occurs due to lack of water.
In addition, there are body temperature changes, heat insulation, and powerful kidney function. This is how water is repeatedly recycled and used in the body, so it can resist thirst.
"In fact, the dung of most herbivores is a good fuel. Even if some are not as dry as camel dung, you can crush it, spread it on stones, wait for it to dry, and the whole process uses
In a short time, in about an hour, you can get fuel of excellent quality and with excellent results."
"The most important thing is that the feces of many herbivorous animals have no odor. This is related to their food composition and the flora of their digestive tracts. Since herbivores and their digestive systems have long growth, the intestinal flora are large and abundant, so they will not
They are prone to stink, like cows and elephants."
"It even smells like grass, which may reduce the physical discomfort for many people."
Any qualified survivor who has received basic training will not have much rebellious psychology towards things like feces.
On the contrary, the more proficient you are in survival, the more joy you will feel when encountering these feces.
Because it represents that there are animals nearby, and you may be able to get a meal tonight, or you may use them as fuel, bait, etc.
In the most extreme circumstances, you can even try to squeeze a trace of water out of it.
[Good guy, what kind of devil capitalist you are, you don’t want to eat, but you still want to let him poop!]
[Only going out but not entering, right (dog head)]
Bi Fang lit up the fire and felt the warmth brought by the flames, which relieved him from the fatigue of the day and made him drowsy.
He threw six golden scorpions into the fire, and this was what he got after digging for a quarter of an hour.
When the skin is slightly crispy, Bi Fang uses a dagger to pick it out of the fire, wipes off the dust and stuffs it into his mouth to chew.
The scorpion that had just come out of the flames was extremely hot. Although it burned the mouth, it also dissipated a lot of the coldness of the Sahara night.
"In desert areas, food is also very perishable. If you do not dehydrate any stored food thoroughly, once it is opened, you should eat it all at once, or re-seal it tightly and store it in a cool place."
"Although the Sahara itself does not have many microorganisms due to its special environment, the food itself does exist. Moisture and high temperatures will cause them to multiply and quickly cause the food to spoil."
"Moreover, overheating will cause people to lose their appetite, so there is no need to force eating during the day. High-protein foods such as scorpions will increase the heat generated in the body and accelerate water loss. The digestion process also requires a large amount of water consumption."
"If you are short of water, do not eat these insects. It is best to eat less and eat some water-rich foods, such as fruits and vegetables."
The taste of scorpions is very good, or in other words, most insects have the same taste, they taste crunchy. Even because the scorpions are big enough, Bifang can taste a hint of meat, adding an oily aroma.
"Local people believe that fire can drive away evil spirits, but in my opinion, its most practical effect is to prevent animals from approaching them rashly."
With some fruits, Bi Fang filled his stomach half full and became more sleepy. After briefly chatting with the audience, he closed the live broadcast and got into the sand pit.
Bi Fang lay alone on the sand and looked up at the stars, feeling that it was like a blanket inlaid with crystals. Wrapped in it, accompanied by the longing of the fire and the smell of grass in the air, he fell asleep unknowingly.
When Bi Fang woke up again, he was awakened by a sound similar to a girl's cry.
The live broadcast room was opened simultaneously, and many viewers who were time-lagged and still in broad daylight poured in. They were all startled when they heard the strange cry.
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
【Holy shit, what's that sound?】
【A woman was killed? 】
[Is it time for the hero Fang Shen to save the beauty again? 】
"No, it's just a wolf howling."
As an experienced survival master, Bifang directly recognized the animal that made the cry without making any comparisons and judgments.
"Desert wolves are small in size, and their calls are very different from normal wolves. It sounds like a woman's cry, but different. Night is the peak period of their activity, so we need to be more careful."
Bi Fang climbed out of the sand pit. As soon as he came out, the sand pit collapsed and most of it was submerged.
This is one of the shortcomings of the sandpit. Although it is easy to make, it is also easy to destroy it when entering and exiting.
Looking at the extinguished bonfire, Bi Fang tried to relight it.
"It's getting daylight soon, so we'll light the fire again, hoping it will have some effect."
As the fire grew stronger, the howling of wolves in the distance subsided, but Bi Fang still did not dare to be careless and waited together with the audience in the live broadcast room.
The night evaporated very slowly in the struggle with the wolves whose faces were only heard but not seen.
It was not until early morning that the movement of the wolves completely disappeared, and the audience breathed a sigh of relief.
Bi Fang was a little tired without a good rest, but if he thought about it carefully, what could be more exciting and fun than a night in the Sahara like this?
"It's just dawn, let's continue on our way."
Bi Fang stood up, patted the dust on his butt, cleaned up the traces of the place, pulled the reins of the camel beside him, stepped on the stirrups in the morning light, turned over, and left quickly.
