Are You Telling An Eight-Year-Old To Survive In The Wilderness? - Chapter 260 - Day and Night

With Bell’s current popularity points, he could draw several times.

According to his previous luck, these lucky draws would definitely increase his strength greatly.

Bell couldn’t help but smile. Suddenly, he seemed to react and quickly looked at the comments in the live-stream.

Realizing that not many audience members in the live-stream noticed his abnormality, Bell heaved a sigh of relief.

Seeing that his strength could increase further, Bell’s mood could not help but improve. Even his footsteps became much lighter.

The gloomy rain darkened the rainforest. Bell did not know how long he had walked until he felt hunger and had to stop.

Bell sat on a tree stump and wiped the rain from his face.

“In this environment, it’s difficult to know the exact time without a watch and electronic equipment.

In the wilderness, we have to know how to arrange our time and when to do things.

Because doing the wrong thing at the wrong time might cause you to gain nothing and only waste your energy. ”

“In this current weather and environment, you can’t even tell if it’s morning or afternoon. However, I can teach everyone a way to differentiate it by looking at animals.

When we can’t confirm the approximate time, we can choose to observe the movements of some animals.

Many animals are most active in the evening and night.

……

Of course, this cannot be considered a precise conclusion.

But their actions point to a general time period. ”

Bell walked to a tree.

On the wide leaves of this tree was a small blue poison dart frog.

Bell pointed at the frog.

“Frogs are usually active in the evening and night.

When you are in the wilderness, if you can hear the sound of frogs, it means that it will be dark soon. At this time, we need to find a shelter as soon as possible.”

“In addition, there are many nocturnal creatures.

For example, the jaguar we encountered before.

Of course, we can’t rely on such ferocious creatures to remind us.

But there are also some gentle animals, such as owls and bats that float at night or in the evening.”

The rain did not stop. Bell looked around.

He sighed and said.

“In this rainy season in the Amazon rainforest, rain can often cause flash floods in just a few days.

Therefore, for safety’s sake, we have to sleep higher today.

Do you remember the rattans I gathered earlier? They can help us build a shelter on high ground.”

The rattans he had gathered were dozens of meters long.

Bell decided to find a tree with dense branches and use these rattans to build a hammock.

In the tropical rainforest, there was no lack of strange trees.

Soon, Bell found his ideal shelter.

It was a tall tree with a diameter of three meters.

If it were in the outside world, it would definitely be worshiped.

Unfortunately, this was the Amazon rainforest.

It could only be counted as an ordinary tree here.

Because the trunk of this tree was three meters thick, Bell was not worried that it would be washed away by the flood.

Most importantly, not only were there many vines on the tree trunk, but there were also some uneven bumps that were suitable for climbing.

Following the vines, Bell easily climbed seven meters up the tree.

He stood on a thick branch and took off the rattan.

“These two branches are very firm, and they are less than a meter apart. As long as we tie them with these rattans, we can make a strong hammock.”

Bell moved quickly and finished building his shelter in less than ten minutes.

Lying on the shelter, Bell even made some large movements to test the toughness of the rattans.

Fortunately, the rattan did not break.

“Looks like we don’t have to worry. I think this hammock can withstand the weight of at least five people.”

The audience in the live-stream couldn’t help but worry for Bell.

After all, the rattan looked to be only the thickness of a thumb. If Bell really fell from this height of seven meters, he would break a few bones at least.

After all, this was a plant, and no one particularly approved of it.

It could not be said that they were timid. The main reason was that this rattan looked fragile, as if it would break with a light pull.

It was indeed a little difficult to make them believe that these thin rattans could withstand a lot of weight.

Not everyone had a strong heart and knowledge like Bell.

The hammock was built, and there were still some rattans in Bell’s hand.

He did not waste it. He tied the leaves together tightly and used them as an overhead cover.

“Alright, our shelter is completed.

I’m feeling a little hungry. It’s time to find some food.

Although a normal person can survive for seven days without food, if they do not have food to eat, it will cause them to be weak.

The decrease in physique can also cause organ failure.

At that time, not to mention survival, you might not even be able to maintain their basic rationality.

Moreover, hunger truly doesn’t feel good. ”

With that, Bell walked along the vines to the ground. While the sky was not completely dark, he began to search for food in the rainforest.

There were many species of animals and plants in the Amazon rainforest, but half of them were inedible.

Because a large number of animals and plants were toxic.

After walking around, Bell finally arrived beside a few palm trees.

There were three palm trees here, and the tallest one was less than three meters tall.

Taking out the dagger at his waist again, Bell began to cut.

Bell said as he worked.

“This kind of palm tree is called Palmetto. Their hearts are edible.

I tried this thing in Manaus City.

This thing tasted good, but it was very expensive.

The locals like to call them the king of vegetables. ”

It was not difficult to cut down the palm trees. They were similar to banana trees, and most of the trunks were filled with fibers.
