Chapter 1477 Savage
Nero and the astrologer are resurrected.
The two of them appeared in a forest.
The cold wind was biting in the early morning, and the rotting tree trunks made a "squeaking" sound.
When you step on the thick leaf litter, you will feel one foot deep and one foot shallow.
The withered yellow branches scraped against his face, leaving streaks of blood.
"Have we come to heaven? No, this should be hell." The astrologer said angrily.
“Hell is not this good.” Nillo was very happy and returned to his usual humorous character.
After all, he came here from the stake, while his competitor came here from a warm, velvet bed with beautiful women...
So these cold winds and rotten leaves are a kind of enjoyment for him, but a kind of torture for his competitors.
"Damn it, damn Nero, why don't you die for your doctrine? Why did you bring me here?" the astrologer said viciously at him.
"Because it is easy to be lazy when doing research alone. I need a communication partner and a competitor." Nillo said, pushing aside the branches in front of him and looking into the distance.
As far as the eye can see, there is a dense pine forest. It is difficult to see the direction and find the way out.
They don't wear much, just single clothes.
Compared to his companions, Nillo wore more clothes.
At this time, he also felt a little cold. He had no intention of teasing his opponent anymore, and his brows became serious.
"We need to make a fire. Do you know how to make a fire?"
"I'm getting angry right now!" the astrologer yelled angrily.
“If you get angry again, you will freeze to death.”
Nillo began to try to dry the bark from the trees and find dry leaves from the ground...
"What are you doing?"
"Put some clothes on yourself and build a shelter from the wind."
People can survive for two or three days without food or water, but hypothermia will make them You'll be dead within a few hours.
Nillo was, after all, a scholar with real talent and practical knowledge, not just a talker.
He often goes to the wild to look at the stars and observe the movements of celestial bodies, so he knows the horror of low temperatures.
Before you know it, just because of your negligence, it could kill you.
The astrologer's anger was finally extinguished by the cold, and he began to work like Nero.
The two worked together and finally built a narrow shelter under the tree.
The pile of branches and fallen leaves is not strong at all and can be blown away by a strong wind.
“We need to discuss what to do?” Nillo said.
"Send me back just as you brought me here." After his body became warmer, the astrologer said angrily again.
“I don’t know how we got here. Maybe it was the devil who brought us here.”
“Devil? You really made a deal with the devil. Otherwise, how could you get it? Come to those shocking conclusions?”
“No nonsense,” Nillo said impatiently, “We need to get some food and water first, and then slowly find the way out. This may be what the sailors said. Uninhabited islands, new lands and other places."
"How to do it?" Astrologers are good at climbing beds and windows, but not good at getting food and water.
"For example, if I hang you under a tree, a wolf will come over soon. I will make a trap below, and I will have wolf meat to eat and wolf blood to drink tonight," Nillo said seriously.
"Why didn't I hang you up?"
"Because I am stronger than you." Nillo grabbed his companion's neck tightly.
"Let me go." The weak astrologer had no choice but to surrender.
The two quickly got busy making traps.
Of course the astrologer was not hung, he just peed on the ground.
Wolves have a keen sense of smell. In such cold weather, if they smell the urine of their prey, they will definitely follow it.
Otherwise, you will starve to death in this weather.
The smell of urine will not attract deer, it will only scare them away.
Nillo then prepared the materials to start the fire.
It was difficult to drill wood to make fire, but fortunately he had heard how sailors made fire.
Dry moss and bird feathers... Make a simple drill bow, use stone to make sharp wood, and then drill.
Of course, before that, the wolf must be caught, otherwise the wolf will not appear if the fire breaks out. .........
"Xiao Huan, what kind of new script is this?" Wen Rensheng asked.
"Oh, this is Robinson Crusoe. Two civilized people from the Middle Ages drifted to an island with only primitive tribes, and began to lead them towards civilization, with rationality and culture emerging." Xiao Huan said plausibly.
“You grew up so fast.”
“Well, actually it was all homework submitted by the priests.”
“Withdraw the compliment.”
"Humph."
“Is the net cloth ready?”
“It’s done, I’ll definitely catch a big fish this time.”
“I’m looking forward to it.”
…………
Nillo is very surprised now and very happy.
It's now the ninth day, and the two are still alive and even have a wooden house.
In fact, he secretly calculated that the two of them had little chance of surviving.
Because the sailors said that during the voyage, they would throw some seriously ill or injured companions on uninhabited islands and give them some food and fresh water.
Even so, the next time I come, I won’t see any living people.
Although the two men were intact, they were not experienced and physically strong sailors.
It is too easy for people to die after being separated from the group.
Because people make mistakes. In a group, there are others to help you make up for your mistakes. In a no-man's land, any small mistake will be magnified.
Just like the first time, I originally wanted to attract a wolf, but ended up attracting a hungry bear.
Bears will hibernate, but if they are not prepared enough, they will wake up during hibernation to look for food.
The two of them tried their best to escape, but the bear seemed to be blind and could not see them.
After thinking about it carefully, the idea of luring the wolves was unreliable. If several wolves came, they would also die.
This is taken for granted.
They had no choice but to pick pine nuts, steal the food accumulated by the squirrels, and even chew the tender bark.
Finally survived nine days.
And they found traces of hunters, including a hunting trap made of wood.
There was also a grouse caught on it, allowing the two of them to have a meat hunt.
As life improved, the two began to have fierce arguments about what to do next.
"We should find a way to get out and find other living people!" Nillo said.
"Wait until spring arrives before going out. Going out in this cold winter is just looking for death." The astrologer huddled in the warm little bed.
Although it cannot be compared with velvet, it is much better than outside.
He didn't want to go out to enjoy the cold wind.
"The arrival of spring is also the time when wild beasts are the hungriest and craziest. Now that the weather is cold, their activities will also decrease. As long as we carefully follow the traces of hunters, we can get out of this forest." Nillo persuaded.
"Go on your own, I won't leave." The astrologer leaned down and fell asleep.
That night, the wooden house caught fire.
Uh...
Of course Nero started the fire.
He found that the warm house gave him shelter but also became a drag.
The companions are greedy for warmth, but forget the crisis in the distance.
When spring comes, they will be very dangerous.
Although the food has increased, they have no medicine, no clothing, no tools. The most important thing is that he does not want to be a savage.
He always felt that the end of being a savage was complete death.
