Survival male god

Chapter 158 The Origin of the Curse

bang bang bang...

The crisp knocking sound was endless, and the dark red iron nail gradually deformed under the continuous beating.

The last time he slammed it hard, the red rock shattered into pieces, and the fragments scattered on the stone platform.

Chen Jing picked up another rock expressionlessly and continued to beat it.

This hibiscus stone, rich in silica, is a kind of quartzite, relatively speaking, it is already the hardest type of rock in nature.

But in front of the hard metal, it is still not enough.

On average, the iron nails are burned red once and forged for 3 minutes, so that the stone will be broken into pieces.

Fortunately, it has a large amount, and I have prepared a lot. When I break a piece, I immediately replace it with a new one, which does not affect the forging of the knife.

For the whole morning, Chen Jing kept hammering on the iron nails. After three hours, the blade part finally took shape.

Another half an hour and the blade should be ready.

This is a small knife twelve centimeters long and less than two centimeters wide. It is no different from a fruit knife, but it is not so thin, and it looks quite durable.

The surface of the stone is not flat, so in the process of forging, many dense dents are left on the surface of the material, and the shape of the knife is not beautiful, but this does not affect its performance.

Although this knife is not as good as the one he forged on the island before, it is enough for cutting things and cutting branches.

The iron nails, which were originally thick as fingers, became thinner little by little under the transformation of flames and stones, and finally became iron sheets.

This is quite an amazing thing.

But the hard work and sweat that Chen Jing put in was also seen by the audience.

Survival in the wilderness is indeed not something that ordinary people can do. It is said that few people can persist in such high-intensity physical work.

During half a day, apart from chatting and spanking with everyone, the audience didn't hear a word of complaint from Chen Jing.

Is it not hard for him to do these things at all?

Maybe it's because of getting used to it, or this level of fatigue is insignificant in Chen Jing's eyes!

Who knows?

Anyway, after watching the whole process, the new viewers only have four big words in their minds.

"The scenery is amazing!"

After forging the shape of the knife, the next thing to do is to sharpen the blade, quench it, and install the handle.

The tail of the blade still retains the shape of the iron nail, and the tip is slightly punched out, and it is directly inserted into the hardwood handle, and the overall structure of the knife is completed.

This small knife is full of primitive atmosphere. Looking at it from top to bottom, the impression is only two words - rough!
But this did not prevent Chen Jing from being happy from the bottom of his heart.

With the addition of the forging master, any metal knives made by him will receive additional compatibility blessings.

The force structure of the knife body, the uniformity of the material, the quenching temperature and the timing control are all at the first-class level. Even if it looks ugly, compared with the same type of knife, it can definitely open up the gap in performance.

"It's a bit like the eunuch in the ancient clean room, the long and thin knife used for castration, I have to give it a name."

Holding the small knife, Chen Jing put it in front of him and looked at it carefully. After quenching, the blade had a mottled blue imprint, which was smudged with eye-catching colors under the sunlight.

"Just call it Cun Mang!"

["Okay, 50 free shipping, I accept it."

"The knife that Jingshen worked so hard to make, you want it for 50 yuan? I'll add 1 yuan, 51!"

"I'm a student, give it to me, and put another 200 yuan in the box."

"Cun Mang? Good name, is the host also a fan of Tomato?"

"Is the knife a long and thin knife used by eunuchs? Then Jingshen just..."

"I feel it, this knife will set off a bloodbath in the Manchak Swamp."]

Chen Jing smiled, leaned over and picked up a wooden stick.

"This knife is quite sharp. It doesn't fit well in a backpack. It needs to be made into a scabbard, otherwise it's easy to hurt yourself if you carry it on your body."

"One is not good, don't really become a eunuch!"

It is very simple to make a scabbard. Cut the middle of two pieces of wood, carve a trapezoidal mortise and tenon structure on the edge, close it left and right, and after fastening it, insert the blade body into it and you are done.

Looking at the time, it was already 4:9 am on April 11th. He spent the whole morning making a knife without eating anything.

At this moment, my stomach is empty, and my hunger keeps coming.

This is the downside of exploratory wilderness survival.

In other words, it would be more appropriate to describe it as escape.

There is no fixed camp, and there is no stable source of food. The things that go into the stomach every day are more and less, and the types are also random. It all depends on what can be found at the moment.

But in the sea, generally speaking, there is no shortage of food.

Even if you search casually in the reef beach, you can always find some seafood such as crabs and shells.

If you are lucky, there will be all kinds of sea creatures, such as jellyfish, sea cucumbers, and sea urchins, washed up on the beach by the tide.

Every day, as the moon orbits the blue star, gravity causes ocean tides as it orbits.

The ocean waters of the whole world push the currents in all directions.

These tiny ripples are both a danger and an opportunity for the trillions of creatures in the ocean.

The cold and warm currents cause fish schools to migrate and migrate, leaving offspring in many waters, contributing to a thriving ecological circle and developing biological species with regional styles.

Top predators, feasting on fish migrations, possess the ability to control themselves in ocean currents.

And the insignificant ones, the passive ones, are very likely to be taken to various unknown realms.

For example, the piece Chen Jing picked up now is a dark sea creature covered with black contacts, which looks like a coelenterate.

"Good luck, I picked up a sea cucumber!"

Put it in water, wash off the mud and sand, and put it in a plastic bag.

Chen Jing continued to walk along the coast.

Today's harvest is much richer than yesterday's. Maybe the tide last night added more resources to this coast.

Those seabirds that came from afar may still be halfway there, but these preys have already been preempted by him.

No way, the resources in the natural environment belong to whoever finds them first, and they have no owners.

After the sea cucumbers, Chen Jing saw some sea urchins, scallops, including two half-palm-sized crabs, which were hiding in the crevices of the rocks, and he dragged them out by force.

Soon, there were a lot of seafood in the plastic bag, and Chen Jing returned to the campfire contentedly, dumped them onto the charcoal fire, and waited quietly.

"It's all raw seafood, and the beauty of this food is that even if you don't add any seasoning, they don't have any weird taste."

"Instead, it is very delicious!"

"But compared to ordinary fish, the edible portion is too small, which is barely a good appetizer."

Since they are all very common ingredients, Chen Jing didn't give the audience too many descriptions.

Just enjoy it silently, without letting go of any corners and corners that can be eaten.

"There are still two and a half hours. Let's search the coast further away. When the time comes, I have to leave here no matter what."

"Because staying here is useless, it is better to go as soon as possible."

Chen Jing strictly implemented the action plan he made before.

After eating, he dug a hole to bury the remnants, packed some burning sticks with crab shells, and set off directly.

"I'm going northeast, where the coast is closer to New Orleans, and closer to the Manchak Swamp."

"I hope that during these three hours, I can find some more useful materials."

In fact, this kind of opportunity is not too great, because some things are completely useless.

Like a sun hat that's been broken into pieces, leaving only the cardboard in the brim, or a used Jespon.

He really didn't know how that thing could help him.

Blow up a big balloon?

Shaking his head, Chen Jing continued to move forward.

In this way, in three hours, he walked out of the beach for more than ten miles. Unfortunately, he found nothing except a glass wine bottle stuck in the crevice of the stone.

The wine bottle was covered with algae and even had some tiny snails in it.

Throwing away the bottle, Chen Jing turned around and headed due north.

There is no reason to stay any longer.

He wants to find a suitable habitat before dark.

Walking through the long sandy beach, there is an endless flat saline-alkali land in front of you, with many low plants growing, all of which are weeds.

It can be said that it is a wetland, but it does not form a swamp. There is still some distance between the bay and the swamp area, about 23 kilometers away.

The further you go, the wetter the ground becomes, and the grass plants become taller and taller, even as deep as a person.

"In fact, the humidity here is higher than that of the saline land near the coast."

"Osmosis allows the seawater to gradually accumulate here through the soil, and it is freshwater to meet the growth needs of the plants."

"After a long period of time, the roots and stems of plants rot and decompose in the soil full of water, and merge with water and mud, turning into fertile black mud rich in various organic and inorganic substances."

"They instead contribute to the growth of regional plants."

"With decomposers and producers, there must be consumers, so that the entire ecological food chain forms a basic closed loop."

"In this wetland ecosystem, there will definitely be resources that we humans need."

"And there are many kinds of food that can be used as our food, such as some emergent plants, such as lotus, taro, fish, various reptiles, amphibians, and insects, etc..."

"Personally, I hate the swampy environment, but it's actually more suitable for human survival than the coast."

"Predictably, I'm not going to starve in the wetlands."

"I can replenish energy anytime, anywhere, just like now..."

While speaking, Chen Jing stretched out his hand and caught a small frog.

It is only as big as a thumb, and its tail has not even degenerated.

"Frogs are a very magical animal. They live in water when they are young and breathe with gills. In middle age or adulthood, they can live amphibiously on land and water and breathe with lungs."

"I like this little thing, go find mommy in my stomach!"

Chen Jing grabbed the little frog and shook it in front of the camera, then stuffed it into his mouth, bit off the head, and chewed vigorously.

"Leopards eat... ten points, at most two points, one point for basics, and one point for gratitude."

"Keep going, the surrounding area is too humid, there is almost no dry place, it is impossible to spend the night here."

"We should now be in the outer suburbs of New Orleans, which is quite far from the Gulf of Mexico."

"It is estimated that after walking for another hour, we will be able to reach the edge of the Manchak Swamp."

"By the way, everyone knows, why is it called the Cursed Land?"

An intriguing look appeared on Chen Jing's face.
