In the early morning, the sky was still bright, and Luo Yuan carried a large washbasin and walked toward the stream.
The washbasin is made of iron and has a diameter of about half a meter. It is completely armored and transported. Although it has been thinned as much as possible, it still has a weight of more than ten kilograms and can be used as a shield.
It's still only early in the morning, the temperature is already quite high, the temperature is more than 30 degrees, but compared to noon, this time is undoubtedly the coolest time.
The thunderstorm has disappeared for five days. The originally quiet forest has revived. The traces of mutant creatures and insects have appeared from time to time in the jungle. Compared with the previous days, there have been a lot of noise.
Luo Yuan left unhurriedly, his face was heavy, his brow was tight, and his right hand was holding a knives and slashing the branches from the side of the path from time to time. These branches were green and delicate, and they were slightly curled up, apparently last night. Just grown out.
The soft ground covered by the layers of dead leaves is slightly moist, which is the result of a night of dew wetness. The surface layer is removed, but the inside is completely dry dead leaves, and the soil is turned into powder.
It has not rained for ten days.
This is completely normal in the western region, but at this high temperature, it is fatal.
However, these plants are growing stronger, perhaps because their roots have to be deep in the earth, so there is no impact at all, but those mutant creatures may not be so good. These days, with the high temperature, a lot of water evaporates, and the water level of the stream drops day by day. From the situation seen yesterday, the water cut is in this two days. If the weather is still so good these two days, .
However, as far as today is concerned, it is obviously a sunny day.
With a heavy heart, it didn't take long for Luo Yuan to walk to the stream, but the situation he saw was more severe than he expected.
I haven't seen it in a day. The stream is almost going to bottom out. It was a foot deeper yesterday. Now there is only a shallow layer, about a dozen centimeters, and the river is full of dead fish and dead shrimp. Most of these fish die. Less than a day or two, but the high temperatures have made these dead fish worse.
In a short period of time, these fishes have been covered with mites, some dead fish have been bitten by nearby mutant beasts, and the streams have been stained with stinky browns, plus locusts and mutated mosquitoes and air everywhere. There is a thick stench, and people can't help but turn and flee.
However, these only made Luo Yuan frown and his face was a bit gloomy.
The terrible momentum, one by one, countless fist-sized mutant mosquitoes, falling down, and soon paved a layer on the ground.
Later, Luo Yuan followed the upper stream and tried to find a slightly cleaner source of water.
This creek is the only source of water nearby. The mutant activities are frequent. Along the way, many mutant creatures drinking water by the stream have made a spurt and fled quickly. The sullen face of Luo Yuan, all of them exudes a terrible breath, like a horrible beast that chooses to succumb to people. Before they get close, the mutant creatures begin to flee quickly.
Of course, there are also unruly, grinning, but then become the soul of the knife under the knife, picked up by Luo Yuan, back on his body.
After walking for about half an hour, just as he lost patience, Luo Yuan finally found a shallow pool.
The stream here has been completely cut off, leaving only a little deep pit with some water, but only one meter deep, the water is very turbid, like a mud pond, but at this time, it can not be extravagant, at least than rotten The stinky sewage is much better.
Luo Yuan took the washbasin, filled a basin, and quickly left the place. In the current situation of water shortage, it will not be long before it will become a place where animals can gather water. Although he is strong, he is not confident that he can walk in this virgin forest.
The speed of going back is much faster. The washbasin filled with water, under the running of his high and low, is like a flat, very few water can spill.
In just ten minutes, Luo Yuan returned to the camp.
Nowadays, the camp has changed a lot. In order to avoid the similar incidents of the last time the people were killed, these days, about 30 meters of the surrounding forest around the transport plane has been cut down, the weeds have been cleaned up, even The soft ground, relying on a few people pushing the heavy stakes, compacted it tightly.
Even so, the next morning, you can always see a green bud that grows out of the soil.
At this time, everyone is grasping the coolness that is rare in the morning and trying hard to practice the knife. Many men are shirtless on their upper body, sweating all over their bodies, and tirelessly practicing over and over again. Every time the blade passes through the air, it makes a whistling sound of cutting the air.
These days, Luo Yuan taught some basic knives and related muscles, such as ducklings, and then he relied on repeated practice to form muscle memory and become instinct. In fact, in Under the pressure of suffocation, these people are far more diligent than Luo Yuan imagined, and as long as there is idle, they begin high-intensity practice.
Compared with ten days ago, these people have made some progress, or at least not as terrible as before.
And maybe it's the correct force. Many human body types have changed. It is like a hard knot muscle. It starts to soften and fade away. Instead, it is like a network-like line muscle. From the image point of view, everyone It has lost a lot of weight, but its explosiveness and speed have become stronger.
However, Luo Yuan’s most optimistic is the two children, Deng Chao and Zhong Chuqiang. Perhaps it is the reason for the strong insecurity. These two people practiced it is simply not to be killed, even if they are eating, sleeping, and from time to time, they will experience it. The movement of muscles. Although they are still far from being able to compare with Huo Dong, Wang Xiaguang and others, with this kind of fanaticism and pure mind, in the future, they may not be able to practice their swords and even understand the momentum field.
Seeing Luo Yuan coming back, Huang Jiahui put down the knife, wiped the sweat, took Luo Yuan's washbasin, and saw the water in the washbasin. Her body trembled a little, and hurriedly said: "Is there no water there?"
"Maybe for these two days, the water is going to dry quickly." Luo Yuan shook his head and said: "It is impossible to rely on the stream. In the afternoon, I will go to the forest to see if I can find a new source of water."
The two did not deliberately suppress the sound.
After many people heard it, they put down their knives and walked over worriedly. They saw the pot of water and their faces changed.
No water is a fatal problem. Especially in this kind of weather, everyone has to drink a lot of water every day. If it is cut off, I am afraid that I will not be able to hold it for a day. Even if it is a body like Luo Yuan, I am afraid it will not be much better.
"Even if you can't find a new source of water, don't worry!" Luo Yuan thought and comforted: "Many plants contain a lot of water, so if you look carefully, you can definitely find it."
"If you can find the sap you used to drink, just fine." Huo Dong said.
Master Wang’s subconscious swallowed, and the wonderful taste is still fresh in the present.
"It takes luck, I think we are better off playing well." Xia Lianchang had some doubts.
"The company commander, I am afraid not. This is the western region. It is short of water. Many wells need to reach tens of meters or even more than 100 meters to get out of the water. Moreover, here is the mountainside, the terrain is high, and the rocks are below, unless If you are lucky, you will hit the underground river. Otherwise, you won't be able to get a hundred meters without a single trip!" said one soldier.
"Why don't we collect dew, I remember a book about Amazon drifting, there is such a written!" Cao Lin said.
"It's Robinson Crusoe!" Lin Xiaoji interjected.
Cao Lin’s face was reddish and she ignored him. Then she said:
I found that the transpiration in the forest is very intense. Every morning, the morning dew is very big. We can use the leaves to collect the dew!
Luo Yuan’s eyes lit up:
I think it’s feasible. As long as the collection range is large, we can get enough water, wait for breakfast, and wait for everyone to go to the forest to collect the leaves.
"Let's go too?" Zhao Yali said subconsciously.
"Everyone goes here. These days, everyone is working hard to practice the knife method. It is time to check it out. After all, we are always leaving here, and I can't protect you every time." Luo Yuan said faintly. .
The voice is not falling, the atmosphere is not tight, everyone looks different!
