Thinking of that future, Bell could not help but look forward to it.
Perhaps when the time came, he could really try to find the treasure hidden in this forest.
But then Bell shook his head and stopped thinking about it.
He was not short of money. Moreover, he had a long way to go to improve his attributes. It was not something that could be done in a short time.
It was more important to take care of the present.
When he crossed the river, Bell’s stamina was exhausted.
He picked up the crocodile tail and ate heartily.
The taste of the crocodile’s tail was not good. The meat was tough, making his cheeks hurt.
But it was a rare food in this rainforest.
A crocodile tail the size of an adult’s arm was quickly destroyed by Bell.
Bell stood up and looked at the sky that was gradually turning dark. He turned to the live-stream and said.
“It’s getting dark again. It will probably be completely dark in an hour or so.
We can’t set up camp by the water in the Amazon rainforest.
This is equivalent to turning yourself into a buffet for the beasts.
We have to return to the rainforest and find a suitable shelter.”
Bell untied the vines around his crotch and quickly walked into the rainforest.
It could rain at any time in the Amazon during the rainy season. The shelter had to be able to block the rain and stay away from the ground.
Although there were tall trees everywhere, it was not easy to find a shelter that fulfilled these two conditions.
Bell looked around as he walked.
The ideal situation was to find a tree hole like the one yesterday.
In this rainforest, the trees were of all shapes and sizes, and some even looked similar to animals.
These strange trees were often more suitable as a shelter.
After a while, Bell finally found his goal.
It was a strange-looking tree. The spiraling branches and roots formed a natural wooden bed a meter above the ground.
Bell only needed to cut off the excess branches to make a shelter.
Of course, he still had to cover his head. He could make a simple canopy with the leaves. It could be used to shield him from the rain.
Moreover, if a wild beast attacked in the middle of the night, he could climb up this tree and avoid most of the danger.
“Does everyone see this? This is it. This is simply a natural shelter.
Remember what I said? You have to learn to use the convenience given by nature in the wild. Only then can we increase our chances of survival. ”
Bell walked forward and patted the thick tree trunk.
“This guy has grown quite well. I only need to expend a little energy to obtain a safe shelter. This is really worth it.”
As he spoke, Bell did not stay idle. He began to cut off the excess branches on the spot which he determined as his wooden bed.
Ten minutes later, a hammock large enough to accommodate him was completed.
He lay down and tried it. He confirmed that it was quite firm. Moreover, there was a fence-like root around it to prevent him from falling to the ground in the middle of the night.
There were many lush trees in this rainforest with waterproof leaves.
Bell found some and cut them down, weaving them tightly and hanging them above his shelter.
Although this shelter looked a little simple, it could at least shelter him from the wind and rain. Moreover, it was far from the ground, which satisfied his requirements.
“I remember telling everyone before that in wilderness survival, we don’t pursue comfort.
After all, if you want to pursue comfort in the wilderness, you might as well go traveling. You have to remember that we are surviving.”
Bell sat in his shelter.
“Many times, some inexperienced survivalists think that their stamina is still abundant and waste their stamina on meaningless things.
For example, trying to build your shelter beautifully, but in fact, no matter how beautiful it is, it can’t give you any practical help. It will only consume your stamina for nothing. ”
Bell’s shelter was built, but the sky was not completely dark. Bell stood up again.
“We have to prioritize food first.
In wilderness survival, food plays a key role in whether you can successfully survive.
No matter what the environment is, the human body needs energy to maintain it.
Only then can you ensure your bodily functions.
While it is not completely dark yet, we can make a few more traps and see if we can catch some prey.”
He walked under the palm tree again.
Bell began to search around. He gathered a few red fruits that were around the ground.
But these fruits seemed to have begun to rot.
Bell moved them to the camera and explained.
“I’m guessing that some of the audience don’t recognize this thing. It’s called palm fruit.
Fresh palm fruits can be eaten, but it is said that this thing tastes like feces.
However, for some rodents, this is a rare delicacy. We can put it in the trap as bait. ”
Bell looked around for a suitable place to make traps.
“In fact, in the wilderness, traps are the most stamina-saving method to capture prey, but it is not the most stable.
Compared to catching prey yourself, traps rely more on luck.
But it can save a portion of your time and stamina.
What I am going to do now is to create a few traps before we go to sleep. Then, I can check if any prey has taken the bait after I wake up.
There are many ways to create traps. There are also many types of traps. You can use different traps in different environments. ”
Bell walked to a stone as he spoke.
The stone in front of him was oval in shape and the size of a basin.
Turning the stone over, Bell realized that this stone was a little flat. It could be considered a natural material for making traps.
Putting it aside, Bell found another wooden stick and broke it, then pieced it together.
He placed the wooden stick on the ground and propped up the stone he had found.
