"Come on, listen." Xu Yi stood up and gave his place to Luke.

Lu Ke understood at once. There must be a voice. Xu Yi would let himself listen.

Sure enough, after lying down and listening for a while, you can hear the "roar".

It's not very loud, but it's very clear.

This shows that they are not far from the water source.

"Over there, over there!" Lu Ke jumped up excitedly and shouted, pointing to the front.

Her mouth was thirsty. She didn't encounter any food all the way. Xu Yi just collected some dry moss and muttered it in the pocket of Luke's coat. Xu Yi's trouser pocket is also full.

"Let's go. We'll be able to drink water soon." Xu Yi grinned and swept the soil on Luke's face.

"You have too." Luke smiled, and then reached out to sweep the soil on Xu Yi's face.

Then they looked at each other and smiled, and their mood suddenly got better.

"Let's go and fetch water. With water, we can start camping." Xu Yi said happily. After all, fresh water resources are the most important for survival in the wild.

With water, even if there is no staple food and only some wild vegetable soup, it can last for more than ten days.

Of course, Xu Yi's goal is 500 days.

Knowing that water could be found, Luke's steps were fast.

Xu Yi took a look at the time. At 9:34, he was very hopeful to find the water source before 10 o'clock.

In this way, they have more time to find food and build shelters.

With shelter and food sources, there is no problem in surviving for several years.

"Xu Yi, look at the waterfall. It's a waterfall. We have water."

Lu Ke shouted excitedly and pointed to the waterfall in the distance.

It's really a waterfall, pouring down from a very high place.

However, it is a little different from what Xu Yi thought.

Here is a broken gorge, which divides both sides into two.

"Xu Yi, what shall we do now? Shall we go to the opposite side?" Lu Ke also realized that it was bad and asked Xu Yi.

At present, it's already 10:04. If you go opposite, it's estimated that there's not enough time for a day.

At the bottom, it looks very steep. It's estimated that you have to cross the sea.

Their position here is not high enough to see the whole picture.

How to choose?

Xu Yi doesn't know how to choose. It's not a good thing to go on like this.

"Boil salt first, then draw water. Save more water, and then we climb up to see the situation on the other side." Xu Yi made a decision. After all, there is still a chance to get water here.

When the waterfall flew up to the water mist, it agglutinated and dripping like rain. Therefore, fresh water can be collected here.

Of course, it will be a waste of time. The problem is that when there is no other water source, they can only collect fresh water in this way.

"I'll dig a clay stove, and you can use a small pot to catch some rain." Xu Yi said, put the plastic bag in the pot on the ground and handed the pot to Luke.

Then I found the open space between the trees and dug it up.

He is only 2 meters away from Luke. If something happens, he can come to Luke immediately.

In the live studio, everyone expressed sympathy for Xu Yi and Lu Ke's experience.

"Hey, I thought little Lori was a koi. I didn't expect bad luck."

"Yes, it's bad enough that they met duangu. Therefore, they haven't met any small animals. Should it be because it has something to do with duangu?"

"What you said upstairs makes sense."

"Xu Yi's decision is quite right. Now they need to replenish water. If they don't replenish water, their body won't be able to support it."

"The mountain may not be completely broken. They can't see the whole picture from this angle. I think Xu Yi will definitely go up in a while."

At this time, Xu Yizheng quickly dug earth with a public soldier shovel. In less than 10 minutes, Xu Yi took out a hole the size of his head.

Then, the roof was flattened and a round hole was dug in the space. Then he dug a small chimney with his own cut crossbow and arrow.

"Now it's time to make a simple bow for taking fire." Xu Yi said to himself, and then took out his belt.

The military belt is a good thing. The belt head is made of alloy and the belt is made of two layers of cow leather.

If the belt head melts, it can be made into a knife, which can be regarded as an additional tool.

In the wilderness where there is nothing, we must use its poles to make everything play more functions.

This is also the idea of the people who prepared these tools at the beginning, so the side of the engineer shovel is as sharp as a sword, which can cut most things.

Xu Yi clamped the engineer shovel with his legs and began to cut the belt.

Soon, Xu Yi had six more small belts in his hand, which was the limit he could divide. It was impossible to be more refined.

Every thin belt is 1.5 meters long. Xu Yi takes one out to make a fire bow. The rest are tied to his belt, and the belt head is also put in Xu Yi's pocket.

The simple fire taking bow is easy to make. Xu Yi immediately made one with a curved wooden stick.

However, this simple fire taking bow is only used by Xu Yi to transition and make Iroquois fire taking tools, and the Iroquois fire taking method is Xu Yi's ultimate goal.

The Iroquois fire taking tool requires a brick shaft. One end of the drill shaft is wound with two ropes, and the other end of the rope is fixed on a hard cross plate. A wooden wheel with a certain weight is used as an accelerator in the middle of the drill shaft. First rotate the drill shaft, the rope will automatically wind up, and then press the cross plate down. Due to inertia, the rope will wind around the drill shaft in the opposite direction, and then press the cross plate up and down repeatedly. This method is very efficient and can be reused.

After all, in the wilderness, there are no flints and no fire folds.

So, some teams chose matches ten thousand times.

However, to make the tools of this Iroquois fire taking method, we must first make a wooden wheel. Therefore, Xu Yi will first make a simple fire taking bow, that is, drill holes for the wooden wheel to see if he can get the fire.

Xu Yi saw a small tree with thick arms, then took a 2 cm thick wooden wheel and began to drill holes in the middle to get fire.

After drilling for more than ten minutes, it began to smoke. Xu Yi quickly put the dry moss on it.

Keep pulling the bow, the smoke is getting bigger and bigger.

In the live broadcasting room, it also began to be lively.

Everyone is guessing whether Xu Yi can get the fire out smoothly.

You know, fire is essential for survival in the wilderness. It can not only heat and boil water, but also sometimes resist the attack of wild animals.
