Chapter 17： Desert Island Survival (11)

Zhang Heng wakes up and sees that Bell is really roasting the python that almost swallowed him last night.

"........."

"Zhang, you're awake, just in time for breakfast." The small branch in the explorer's hand turned the bonfire, adjusted the flame, and then pointed to the **** thing beside it. After cleaning, you can use it to make a water pouch or something, which is much better than the tightness of a wooden barrel, or you can use it to make clothes and put on a cooling effect. It is still useful in hot weather. "

"Thank you for what happened last night." Zhang Heng sat up from the ground and thanked Bell first. He could still see the red mark on his arm.

"Hey, you're welcome. You saved me at sea. You need to help each other if you want to survive in the wilderness, don't you?" Bell passed Zhang Heng, a roasted snake steak dressed in wooden sticks.

The latter wanted to refuse, but then I thought that this might be the only time in my life to eat a python without sitting under the jail, so I took it.

I took a bite of curiosity and found that the taste was actually good, the fishy smell was not strong, a bit like chicken, but more muscular than chicken.

I remembered last night that this thing almost killed his own life, Zhang Heng decisively decided to add two more.

Uh ...

I had breakfast and the two were on the road again.

Bell Bell continued to play the role of a qualified guide, while opening the road with a knife in the front, while explaining to Zhang Heng various creatures along the way.

"The python we encountered last night is not the only hunter in this forest, because when they eat, they usually choose to swallow the prey from their heads. They have poor eyesight and sometimes they appear. The prey is too big to explode their belly alive, but the snakes have a very strong digestive ability, often even the meat and bones can be digested together, and we have encountered a few pairs of animal skeletons, which are compared Complete, it doesn't look like it died in its hands. "

Zhang Heng silently memorized these cold knowledge, many things usually seem useless, but I don't know when they will come in handy.

For example, Ed and the shorts did not teach him how to use salt water to make salt, but he used a small video previously seen on a barrage website to obtain relatively pure edible salt by heating crystallization and repeated filtration. To make the food delicious.

He said that when Zhang Heng went to elementary school, he also went to Xishuangbanna with his grandfather. The forest park there left him a deep impression.

However, after all, it was developed artificially. Considering that security is only a small part open to tourists, Zhang Heng, an absolutely pure tropical rainforest, is also the first time I saw it, and according to Bell, the biological community here is very rich. It also opened Zhang Hengda's eyes.

For example, he once saw a small frog with translucent belly skin on the side of the road, only 1-2 centimeters in length, and his heart, liver, and digestive tract can be clearly seen from below, which is very magical.

"Glass frogs generally inhabit tropical rain forests in Central and South America. There are currently 134 types of glass frogs known in the world, of which 60 are endangered." The explorer said carefully while putting small things in his hands and carefully Back on the leaves.

"What about this?" Zhang Heng pointed at a raised tumor-like part of a banyan tree, and a new branch had even grown on it.

"Oh, staghorn fern, staghorn fern epiphyte, tender green when new, mature to light brown, they are usually epiphytic on the trunks or branches of other trees and are common in tropical rain forests."

In addition, Zhang Heng also saw a cat monkey, but this thing is neither a cat nor a monkey. It has bat-like wings and wraps its neck, limbs, and tail. It glides in the air and seems to be very playful; Kipling Bahira is the only vegetarian spider in the world that feeds on leaf buds. This name is too stubborn. Zhang Heng confirmed with Bell three times. I can't believe it; the bird of paradise, also known as the paradise bird, sounds like a gunshot. It scared Zhang Heng when he first heard it, but it looks very beautiful, especially the tail feathers, and the color gradient ...

Bell couldn't help but sigh, "This place is a biological paradise. It's the first time I've seen so many tropical flora and fauna in different areas come together. It's incredible. Biologists will love this area if they know it." Land. "

At this moment, Zhang Heng's feet seemed to have stepped on something. He bent down and picked up a tooth of an unknown animal. There was also a round hole at the bottom.

"This thing seems to be hand-made, and the naturally formed holes are generally not so regular." Bell took the tooth and took a closer look at the back, "I know that some indigenous people will use prey teeth to make jewelry. Around the neck, UU reads to show off their strength. The more powerful the prey, the more they can prove their strength. In this way, they can more easily choose their favorite partner when choosing a partner. I have a friend In order to marry the most beautiful woman in their tribe, he went to the prairie alone to hunt lions, but he failed to return. "

"........."

There are indeed reasons for the lack of foreigners. Zhang Heng declined to comment on whether this behavior was wise. In contrast, he was more concerned about another question, "So there is indigenous life on this island? Will it not be a cannibal? Right. "

Bell shook his head. "It's unlikely that the area of ​​the island itself can't be considered as large. You said you've lived on it for more than a year. If there are other people on the island, you don't make sense and you still haven't. They met ... and this thing looks a bit old. "

所以 "So there were indigenous people here before?" Zhang Heng was also shocked with cold sweat. If those natives are still alive, maybe he and Ed were caught by the other side on the first day on the island.

"Well, look down."

Bell is also interested. He is an explorer himself. Such a lost civilization has an unspeakable appeal to him. He even forgot that he was looking for a way to leave the island and return to the civilized world. The two continued to the center of the island. go ahead.

So far, they have walked half the distance, and as they continue to deepen, they have found more and more traces of human survival.

Bell Bell looked at the unseen cottages that had been completely corrupted, as well as the stone tools covered with blue pagodas. It was certain that an indigenous tribe had lived here in the distant past.

What happened to them, why are they all gone today? Explorers are becoming more and more curious.
