Chapter 179 : Make protective gear and cross the stagnant water area!
Since this banana tree has not grown for a long time and has not yet reached the fruiting period, there are no bananas on the tree. Otherwise, Lin Shuhang would definitely take the opportunity to fill his stomach, knowing that he had been hungry for two days.
Although there are no bananas on this banana tree, for Lin Shuhang at this time, eating is not the most important thing. If he is hungry, he can grit his teeth and endure it. If his legs are soaked by sulfuric acid rain, he will be disabled.
.
In the dangerous prehistoric world, disability meant death. A Titan with sound limbs could die at any time, not to mention a giant with soaked legs? Therefore, Lin Shuhang had more important things than filling his stomach.
Climbing trees was a piece of cake for Lin Shuhang. After living for so long in prehistory, if he couldn't climb trees, would he still be called a giant? Don't forget, the skill Lin Shuhang first activated was climbing.
A banana tree of more than fifty meters is the height of a slam dunk for him. After all, he is over fifty meters tall.
Soon Lin Shuhang picked more than a dozen leaves from this banana tree.
It is indeed a banana tree on the Titan continent, one leaf is bigger than a bus.
In order to protect his legs from being corroded by the accumulated water on the ground, Lin Shuhang put in a lot of effort and wrapped several layers of leaves on his legs, three inside and three outside.
In order to prevent the leaves from falling apart, Lin Shuhang wrapped the vines tightly around his legs several times.
Everything is ready, the next step is to test the waterproof effect of this pair of rain boots. Lin Shuhang does not want the rain boots to seep when crossing the water area, so he must test the waterproof performance of this pair of rain boots before setting off, and be prepared.
Preparation for the above.
To be honest, this pair of "rain boots" made of banana tree leaves has a certain degree of waterproof performance. After soaking in stagnant water for a long time, there was no water intrusion. However, what made Lin Shuhang depressed was that although these rain boots
It has certain waterproof properties, but it is very easy to be broken by feet.
There is no way, the leaves of the banana tree are too brittle, and if you move your toes a little, there will be a big hole.
"No, the leaves of the banana tree are too weak to support the crazy general and I out of the waterlogged area. We must change the material."
Just when he was thinking about replacing the materials, the crazy general returned carrying a huge strange plant.
"Roar!" The mad general roared, took off the plant from his shoulder, and handed it to Lin Shuhang who was standing beside him.
This is a huge fern with oval-shaped leaves, colorful and very beautiful.
This plant aroused great interest in Lin Shuhang, because he discovered that although the leaves of this plant are not very big, they are very flexible. It is impossible to tear the leaves without using force. Even if the leaves are torn,
The broken part is also connected with a thick gel, which is waterproof and flexible many times better than the banana tree leaves just now.
However, the biggest disadvantage of this kind of leaf is that there are many hard burrs on the surface of the leaf.
Although these burrs are not very long, they prick your hands like steel needles, and you can imagine how it feels when they wrap around your feet.
However, the current situation is that there is no better material than the leaves of this plant around to make "rain boots" that avoid water.
Lin Shuhang didn't want his feet to be corroded by the sulfuric acid rain on the ground, so he gritted his teeth and reluctantly wrapped the burr-covered leaves around his legs.
How could this feeling be described as "refreshing"? Lin Shuhang grinned in pain, looking really embarrassed.
"What a sin!" After wrapping the thorny leaves around his legs, Lin Shuhang wiped the sweat from his head and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Try it and see how it works?"
In order to test the waterproof effect of the protective gear, Lin Shuhang once again jumped into the water area.
Facts have proved that the waterproof effect of the leaves of this plant is quite outstanding. After being soaked in water for half a day, there was no leakage of protective gear.
Due to the huge scope of this sulfuric acid rain, the water accumulation area caused by it reaches millions of square kilometers. Although the water in the accumulation area will seep into the ground over time, there must be a process in the middle.
This process will not last long, because the land in Fuhe Rainforest has good permeability, but because the amount of rain in the past two days is so heavy, it will take at least one to two days for all the water on the ground to penetrate.
Because of this, the wear resistance and damage resistance of protective gear are also very important to Lin Shuhang and Crazy General.
The method Lin Shuhang uses to test the wear resistance and damage resistance of protective gear is simple and crude. It can be summed up in three words: kick, jump, and rub.
Lin Shuhang is probably the only one in the world who uses this almost self-mutilating method to test the wear resistance and damage resistance of protective gear. However, there is no other way. Although this process is very painful, at least Lin Shuhang can estimate
This pair of "rain boots" would allow him to go as far as he wanted. He didn't want his shoes to suddenly leak while walking, which would have catastrophic consequences for him.
You must know that this time you are passing through an ordinary waterlogged area, but a waterlogged area where sulfuric acid rain gathers. Before crossing a waterlogged area, not only must you be foolproof, but you must at least try to avoid problems that should not occur, otherwise during the period
Once something goes wrong, it will be something Lin Shuhang cannot afford.
Since he had seen the power of acid rain before, Lin Shuhang would not take risks easily in this situation.
In order to test the wear resistance and damage resistance of the protective gear, Lin Shuhang endured the pain of the sharp thorns piercing his flesh and jumped his right leg on the ground. From time to time, he kicked the tree a few times. He kept tossing for half an hour. The pair of plant leaves
The protective gear was damaged.
Lin Shuhang can be said to be very satisfied with the results of this test. Lin Shuhang estimated that crossing the waterlogged area at this intensity would at least allow him and the crazy general to walk hundreds of kilometers. If he walked carefully during this period, it should be easy.
Support until the water subsides. When the water in the water area subsides, even if the protective gear is damaged, it will not matter.
"The effect is good, Crazy General, come here, I will help you make a set of protective gear."
After confirming that the leaves of this plant could protect his body, Lin Shuhang also made a set of protective gear for the Crazy General.
Compared to the plant protective gear on Lin Shuhang's body, the Mad General consumed more materials. After all, this was a giant beast weighing over 40 tons.
In addition, there are sharp bear claws on the soles of the Mad General's feet. If the leaves wrapped in it are thin, it will be easy to puncture the bear claws.
In order to prevent the crazy general's claws from puncturing the protective gear, Lin Shuhang wrapped it in more than a dozen layers of plant leaves at once.
After doing all this, Lin Shuhang wiped the sweat from his forehead and raised his chin towards the crazy general: "Let's go, Big Bear, to find something to eat."
"Roar!" Crazy General had a natural keen sense for the word "eat". After roaring excitedly, he and Lin Shuhang jumped into the water area.
