Chapter 134 Desert Hero Tree
After walking for more than ten minutes, the light in some parts of the canyon began to dim because the sun was blocked by the rock walls.
Under the camera, Lin Fan was holding the blood-stained "Head Destroyer" bone stick in his hand, and his eyes kept lingering among the weeds and dead trees, looking very alert.
"Brothers, in the wild, the evening is the most common time for venomous snakes to appear, especially the venomous snakes in the desert. Their skin color is born with extremely strong protective color, making it difficult for you to detect their disguise with your naked eyes. If you don't pay attention, when you step on or touch them, the venom will use its super-speed attack to bite your calves within 0.3 seconds and pour venom in. Believe me, once you are bitten by them, you have almost no chance of rescue!"
Fortunately, the grass in the canyon is not lush, and the poisonous snakes do not seem to appear here.
He casually patted a flying mosquito lingering in his ears to death. Lin Fan looked at the corpse of the mosquito in his palm and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Damn it! Mr. Fan must even eat mosquitoes, right?"
"Uh...it seems that eating a mosquito is not impossible, right?"
"It's so disgusting. Master Fan must not eat it!"
"That brother who said he was disgusting, have you forgotten the pot of maggots in Fan Ye's backpack?"
"Stop talking! Please let me have a way out!"
Lin Fan bounced off the mosquito corpse upstairs and shook his head: "Brothers, mosquitoes cannot be eaten!"
"Why, Master Fan, you dare to eat maggots, are you still afraid of mosquitoes?"
"That's right, no matter how small the mosquito is, it's still meat. Master Fan, don't look down on mosquitoes and can cut them down!"
"Mosquito: That's it, don't treat the village chief as a cadre, we are just a piece of meat at least!"
"Puff! 2333333 upstairs!"
Seeing this, a black line suddenly appeared on Lin Fan's forehead, and he sighed helplessly and explained:
"Mosquitoes contain a large number of bacterial sources. Occasionally, eating one or two will have no effect. However, eating too much will easily cause you to suffer from dysentery, yellow fever, dengue fever, encephalitis and other diseases. Besides, mosquitoes are extremely small in size. In addition to the blood it sucks, there is little protein in the body. Eating it is tantamount to drinking the blood of animals directly."
"But, although this creature cannot be eaten, it is the best guide to find a water source in the wild!"
"You know, all female mosquitoes like to lay their eggs in water. In the warm season, these eggs will hatch a large number of mosquito larvae within three days and start to swallow the extremely small microorganisms and protozoa that grow in the water. On the contrary, if there is no water here, even if the female mosquitoes lay eggs, those eggs cannot grow at all, and there will naturally be no mosquitoes here."
"Damn it, Mr. Fan is too knowledgeable!"
"By a mosquito, you can tell that there must be a water source in front of you. Ye Fan is awesome!"
"Uh...666?"
"Haha, yes, yes, 666!"
Sure enough, after walking around a few corners, Lin Fan finally found a pool of water under a low-lying tunnel.
The pool is very green, with a large amount of algae and duckweed floating on it. If you observe carefully, you can see several dead rotten gerbils floating on the water surface. The soaked corpses are covered with green algae.
"Damn, this water is too dirty!"
"Don't Mr. Fan still have water? Don't drink these!"
"Just just look at it, my scalp is numb. This time, I guess everyone knows that this water cannot be drunk."
"It's so scary. Look at the mouse, it's soaked white!"
Seeing this, Lin Fan also sighed, squatted down and pointed at the black particles beside the pool and said, "Brothers are right. This water source should be the place where wild animals come to drink water every day. Look, there are footprints and feces of wild animals everywhere. I guess even some impatient wild animals will occasionally treat this place as a bathhouse, go in and take a bath, urinate, etc."
When the second half was heard, the audience immediately laughed:
"Puff! The bathhouse is OK, but this thing is a kitchen and bathroom integrated design."
"It's enough mud in the kitchen and bathroom! Your kitchen also has the function of peeing and bathing!"
"Your people are so perverted!"
However, Lin Fan was not too disappointed. He took out the knife, cut off some green moss growing on the rocks of the pool, and put it in his bag: "Brothers who have watched my last live broadcast should still remember it. In the wild, moss is a very high-quality healing product, especially for treating stings from hornets. Believe me, it is definitely useful to take some of this thing on the road!"
Because it was approaching evening, although the sun was still shining brightly on the plains outside, the canyon was gradually darkening.
In order to prevent encountering wild beasts coming to drink water, Lin Fan bent over and searched on the ground for a while after taking the moss, pointed to a string of messy footprints and said, "Look, this place should be the wild beasts coming here to drink water. They often walk through the remaining animal paths. Do you still remember the scene when we caught the red deer in Siberia? In the wild beasts usually walk along the footprints they left behind. This is a special road left for them, so next, we have to do some serious things!"
"Do your business? I like it!"
"Come on, let's have a good time!"
"I like the most when Mr. Fan is serious when he is doing serious business!"
"Mr. Fan, you are the most handsome when you do serious business!"
Here, following the mark left by the animal path, Lin Fan walked forward and began to find the best place to set up traps.
A few minutes later, he stood in front of a poplar tree that was broken in half, leaning on his chin to think about how to set up a trap.
Populus euphratum, also known as Hutong, is the oldest poplar tree in the world.
Unlike ordinary poplar trees, poplar trees are extremely drought-resistant, can tolerate drought in the desert, changeable and harsh climates, and have extremely strong tolerance for saline and alkali. In the Lop Nur Gobi, where the groundwater contains a high salt content, it is still lush with branches and leaves. With its strong vitality, it is called the "desert hero tree" by the Uyghurs who live here for the world. There is a saying that "born for a thousand years and never die, die for a thousand years and never fall, and never fall for a thousand years and immortal for a thousand years."
At this time, the poplar tree in front of Lin Fan perfectly confirmed its vitality.
Under the camera, the poplar tree that was broken in half did not die. Instead, it turned the trunk inserted into the Gobi stall into a root system, plunged deeply into the soil scattered by gravel, absorbed every drop of water obtained from the ground, and re-forked and sprouted on the original trunk, forming a strange scene that looked like an arch.
