Live Wilderness Adventure - Chapter 882 dead wood on the river

The wet sand was slowly pushed away by the advancing raft, and a striking trace appeared on the river beach.

The dark blue river water became slightly yellow due to the mixing of a lot of sediment, and the water waves on both sides continued to spread farther away, as if sending a signal to the overlord in the river.

Harley sat on the shore, opened his mouth slightly, and looked around vigilantly, but his appearance made Harley look rather dumb.

Out of the corner of his eye, Bi Fang noticed something moving in the grass beside him.

A few grasses more than two meters high shook slightly. If you didn’t pay attention, you might think it was a small wind. But you can see the shaking frequency of grasses in other places. It’s against the law to shake a lot in just one place. of.

He guessed that the high probability of hiding there was a crocodile.

As a temperature-changing animal, crocodiles can keep their body temperature basically consistent with the environment, and their metabolic level will also change constantly.

The advantage of this is that there is no need to consume energy substances in the body to maintain body temperature. Maintaining a body temperature of more than 30 degrees for normal animals is not a small energy expenditure. The energy provided by the same piece of meat can support the activities of temperature-changing animals for a longer period of time, so temperature-changing The energy consumption rate of animals is much slower than that of warm-blooded animals, and further, they eat less.

Eating less is a great advantage in the cruel nature. Eating less means less prey is needed, and it is not easy to starve to death. Less prey needs means less hunting times, and it is not easy to be killed.

Look at the objects that the Nile crocodile eats twice a year, either the wildebeest or the zebra, none of them are easy to get along with, and the crocodile is also uncomfortable.

I often walk by the river, how can I not get my paws wet.

The less you walk, the longer you live.

However, changing temperature also has disadvantages, otherwise most creatures standing at the top of the food chain would not be endothermic animals.

If the environment is too cold and the metabolism level in the body of the temperature-changing animal is too low, the movement will become quite slow and clumsy, and the possibility of catching prey will drop rapidly.

Among the temperature-changing animals, the ones that can be called the top creatures are probably the crocodiles and pythons, and they are both opportunists. They nest in a small place, and the prey cannot be caught unless they run close kind.

For this reason, in the face of the upcoming semi-annual buffet conference, as long as there is still sun in the sky, the crocodile will climb ashore to expose itself to the sun, and store energy like a solar battery to charge for the next action.

Bi Fang looked around and found that there was no splash of water except on the side of the raft, which meant that the crocodile did not enter the water.

The audience was also quite nervous when they saw this. Perhaps Bi Fang's words and actions have left a deep impression on everyone. Such a wide river is labeled as extremely dangerous in the eyes of the audience.

【Already starting to panic】

【I don't feel safe at all】

【Will the crocodile attack people on the raft? It doesn't even have a baffle. Will the raft fall apart if you press it directly】

【I'm an old man can't see this】

"We still have to cross the river as soon as possible."

After pushing the raft into the water, Bi Fang went up to test the buoyancy and structure.

A river more than fifty meters wide is full of crocodiles. If the raft is not strong, it is purely a joke with your own life.

After ensuring that everyone was safe, Bi Fang picked up the skewer, greeted Harley who was sitting on the ground, and prepared to cross the river.

Looking at the few exposed river islands in the river, you can tell that the depth of the river here is not too deep, and the flow speed is not fast. Compared with paddles, props are actually a better choice.

"Although the prop can only be used in shallow water, it is the most adaptable boat maneuvering method under special conditions, and it can be easily overcome whether it is narrow water surface or aquatic plants."

"Therefore, domestic wooden boats usually use poles with other propulsion methods. Generally, paddles are rarely used in the busy areas of the south of the Yangtze River, because the restrictions on the use of paddles are too large, and they must be used in open water. Narrow waters are not easy to use. On open waters such as near lakes Fishermen use more oars, and at the same time, there should not be too many aquatic plants, and it is not easy to use them once they are entangled."

Of course, Bi Fang also prepared the oars.

There is no bamboo nearby, let alone straight and slender plant stems, so Bi Fang can only make a temporary support by connecting branches, and tie them with special knots for reinforcement.

Compared with bamboo skewers, this method is heavy, the structure is not firm, the quality is absolutely substandard, and it is basically disposable.

For this reason, we must be more careful, if it breaks, it will be very troublesome, so Bi Fang prepared an extra rowing oar in advance.

Receiving the call, Harley lowered his head, carefully looked at the slightly turbid lake surface, stretched out his claws to try, and then quickly retracted them, looking hesitant.

Bi Fang kept an eye on the underwater environment to ensure that there would be no surprise attack at this time. He did not urge Harley, but let him judge the environment alone.

It is very normal to be afraid and hesitant in the face of unfamiliar environments, and it is a very good habit in nature. Bi Fang will not stop Harley from having such behaviors, so as not to affect his natural life in the future.

If you are urging because you are in a hurry, once or twice may not matter, but once, it is actually easy for Harley to lose such a good habit.

[It's a bit like raising a child (dog head)]

[I feel that Harley is really smart]

[When will everyone have one of these things?]

【Still too dangerous】

After pacing back and forth on the shore for about three minutes, Harley made up his mind and carefully jumped onto the raft. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

Under the influence of a little gravity and inertia, the raft fluctuated and swayed slightly. Harley was so frightened that he immediately got down and lowered his center of gravity. His limbs and claws were firmly embedded in the wood, and he stood cautiously until the raft was stable again. Get up and start moving carefully.

Seeing this, Bi Fang continued to wait for a while, and every time he saw Harley approaching the edge of the raft, he patted it back lightly. The whole raft rolls out.

"In shallow water, we can use two long skewers to control the raft. If you are inexperienced, it is best to work with two people. One person is at the front gusset, and the other is diagonally at the rear, so that Even if you don’t have the slightest experience in propping, you can make the whole ship move quickly and ensure a certain degree of stability.”

"If you are alone, it is quite difficult to use the props. This is also a technical task. It needs to mobilize all the sensibility of the whole body. If you don't have enough skills, you will easily feel tired and don't pay attention to it. It is possible to keep the ship spinning in place.”

While Bi Fang was speaking, he kept moving his hands, holding on to the long pole, and gradually moved towards the other side of the river.

Compared with the movement of just launching into the water, this time undoubtedly attracts the attention of the crocodiles more. Only six or seven meters out, the audience noticed that there are many "dead trees" not far away.
