doomsday survival

Chapter 5 Searching for Water ([-])

With his head full of random thoughts, Shi Jian unconsciously fell asleep.

The experience of this day is more thrilling than the sum of the past 25 years of life.First, I encountered an unimaginable crossing, then climbed over mountains and ridges, finally got out of the mountain, and encountered even more terrifying zombies, and finally ran away for more than three hours.

A series of strenuous physical exercises made Shi Jian sleep very deeply this time, even the coldness of the forest in the middle of the night did not wake him up from his sleep.

In the dream, Shi Jian finally awakened the legendary invincible system.

Wearing a battle suit produced by the system, holding a high-tech weapon produced by the system, and running the system-published "Heaven and Earth Sovereign God Blocks and Kills Gods and Buddhas Blocks and Kills Buddhas" Yuan Yi Qigong.

Destroy a city with one shot, flatten a mountain with one stomp, and make zombies cry and howl.

In the blink of an eye, countless flashes of lightning flashed, making the survivors' younger sisters fall in love with each other.Shocking the tiger's body exuded a bastard's aura, making the survivors' masters vie to be the younger brothers.

Then integrate the various gathering places, wipe out the zombies in the world, and establish a new global order.He ascended to the throne in the Long Live of Wanmin Mountain, and left after the pleadings of the people.

In the end, he walked among the mountains and rivers with all the beauties and lived a leisurely and comfortable fairy life.

But dreams can only be dreams. No matter how beautiful a dream is, there is always a time to wake up, and no matter how wonderful a fantasy is, it has to bow to reality.

The reality is—Shi Jian is thirsty.

After not drinking water for more than ten hours, coupled with the sweat from strenuous exercise, Shi Jian was actually on the verge of dehydration.

Shi Jian opened his eyes and licked his cracked lips with his tongue. He felt dizzy and had no strength in his limbs.

"You have to drink water, otherwise dehydration will not be fun." Shi Jian understood his current situation, his supernatural powers, his dynasties were just clouds in front of the water.

Look around, it's already dawn.Shi Jian slid down from the tree, feeling a tingling pain all over his body.

"It seems that this tree is really not a good place to sleep." Shi Jian looked around vigilantly while moving his sore limbs.

There are only birds chirping from far and near, accompanied by unknown insects, and it seems that there is no danger.

Where should I find water?Shi Jian was worried again, and he listened hard, but he didn't hear a sound of water.

"Anyway, there must be no water in this arbor forest." Shi Jian quickly made a judgment and walked out of the pine forest.

Suddenly a question appeared in Shi Jian's mind.

What caused the zombies?
Through what to infect?

Air?

or water?
Without understanding these problems, where can Shi Jian find safe drinking water?

In case the water source is polluted, if there is a zombie virus, then Shi Jian can go and keep company with the zombies in the town.

Shi Jian stood still, leaned against a big tree, sat down on the ground, and began to analyze one by one.

There should be no problem with the air, otherwise, he would have been infected, and sooner or later he would turn into a dead body.

If that is the case, all struggles will be in vain.

Since it is assumed that there is no zombie virus in the air, the remaining urgent consideration is the issue of water.

The animals in the woods are not zombified, and the animals need to drink water, so there are several possibilities for whether there is a problem with the water.

One is that the animals did not drink the water with the zombie virus.

The other is that the water has no zombie virus.

Another possibility is that the zombie virus cannot infect animals.

Of course, the last one may not even believe Shi Jian, a virus that only targets humans?Was that sent by aliens?
Although the second possibility is true, Shi Jian dare not guarantee it.

After careful consideration, Shi Jian decided to find a source of water for animals to drink. It would be best if he could find spring water, as the groundwater must be clean.

Shi Jian relaced his hiking boots, fastened the hems of his stormtroopers, and walked out of the forest.

When looking for water sources in the wild, you can't go to high places. Try to choose low-lying places such as the foot of mountains, mountain streams, cliffs, basins, and valley bottoms.Near these places, if there are streams and waterfalls, you can clearly hear the sound of the water.Especially in the early morning or foggy morning, because the air is rich in water molecules and negative ions, the sound of water can travel far.

Even if there is no running water, groundwater can usually be dug out at the foot of the mountain, but Shi Jian has no tools, so he can only try to find running water.

Of course, the berries of many plants contain a lot of water, which can satisfy both thirst and hunger.But it's only July now, and the fruit is not yet ripe, otherwise it would be a good solution to drinking water.

(These are some skills of survival in the wild. Interested readers can record them. Sometimes survival in the wild is also a very interesting thing. In the future, Huyue will introduce more knowledge of survival in the wild)
Passing through the pine forest, there is a shrub forest ahead. The shrubs and weeds are entangled, which is very difficult to walk.

Shi Jian could only choose a place to walk as best he could, and walked towards the slowing down of the hillside.After walking a few steps, Shi Jian stopped suddenly and patted himself on the head.

"I'm a pig!" Shi Jian scolded himself mercilessly, because what he did was really stupid.

Shi Jian cast his eyes on the dewdrops on the leaves, "Isn't this just water!"

Dew is formed by the condensation of water molecules in the air. From a physical point of view, it is not much different from distilled water, the so-called pure water. It is clean and safe to drink.

Since it has been assumed that there is no zombie virus in the air, the dew formed by the condensation of water molecules in the air will not have viruses.

For Shi Jian, who is seriously dehydrated, instead of looking for a source of water that he doesn't know where, the dew can really quench his thirst.

Shi Jian quickly took off his jacket, took off his hat, and turned it over so that the outside of the hat turned inward, and it became a water container.

Shi Jian kept shaking the branches and leaves of the shrubs, letting the dew fall into the hat.The outer fabric of the jacket is waterproof, and the dew fell into the hat, turning into round drops of water on it.With a light shake of the hand, the small water droplets will roll down and merge into larger water droplets to flow deep into the hat.

After a while, Shi Jian drank half a cup of dew.Shi Jian couldn't wait to raise the hat, raised one corner high, and let the water flow into the mouth along the small groove formed by the hat.

"Shu Tan!" Shi Jian's smoldering throat was moistened, and he felt more comfortable than ever before, "What Lafite [-], Louis [-], Maotai Wuliangye, Coffee Biluochun, compared with this one, they are all scum! !"

Many years later, whenever he mentions drinks, in Shi Jian's mind, the best thing to drink is always the pure natural pollution-free dew that he drank the next morning after crossing.So much so that someone used a classic line in the play "Joking about Shi Jian": "Mr. Shi, do you still remember the Ningyulu on the Xing'an Mountains?"

Shi Jian drank a few more times, and finally felt less thirsty, so he continued to look for water.After all, dew can only be found in the morning, and it is very troublesome to collect. Finding the water source early is the right way.

However, Shi Jian was not in a hurry anymore, there was still some dew in the hat, and it took him an hour to collect so much.

Although the water is gone, my stomach is still empty.What Shi Jian had left to eat was packed in his mountaineering bag, which had already become the zombie's spoils of war.

There are also a lot of plants in Xiaoxing'an Mountains. Shi Jian found some familiar wild vegetables such as dandelions, bitter herbs, and purslane on the road, put them in his mouth and chewed them fiercely.Regardless of the taste, it is serious to fill the stomach.

After walking all morning, Shi Jian didn't find any water source, but he drank a lot of water in his hood.

Fortunately, Shi Jian found a pheasant nest in the grass, with eight wild eggs in it.This is a good thing.

Shi Jian poked a small hole in the egg shell with a branch, lifted the egg and put it near his mouth, sucked it hard, and the whole egg liquid entered his mouth.

The taste of raw wild eggs is not good, and it is much fishier than duck eggs.But at this moment, who cares about these things? After eating six wild eggs in one go, Shi Jian stopped.The remaining two Shi Jian were not willing to eat, so they carefully wrapped them in their vests and put them in their pockets, leaving them for the next meal.

In fact, wild eggs are very small, only half the size of eggs, but after all, these things are hard to come by, so it is better to save a little, because we want to build a conservation-oriented society.

After eating the wild eggs, Shi Jian felt a little full, so he stopped resting and hurriedly searched for water sources.

If you can find a stream, there is a good chance there will be some fish and shrimp.Moreover, some small animals will be caught by the water, which are all needed by Shi Jian.

Unfortunately, in the afternoon, the rest of the water was spilled on the next hill.

At that time, Shi Jian was busy on his way when a bird he didn't recognize suddenly flew up from the grass. With a "thud" sound, Shi Jian was startled and nearly slipped and fell to the ground.

Shi Jian waved his hands in a panic, trying to maintain his balance.But he didn't maintain his balance, instead he spilled all the water in the hood, and he also fell a somersault.

Shi Jian got up from the ground, looked helplessly at the wet ground, and shouted: "God, why don't you play with me! Is it easy for me to get some water?"

With a cry, countless birds flew around in shock. Among the many birds, Shi Jian recognized a few familiar birds—quail!
"We can find water!" Shi Jian suddenly became excited.

Why do you say that quail has something to do with water?Quail generally live in the grass of plains, hills, swamps, lakes, streams, and sometimes in bushes.And the most important point is that quail fly back to the water in the morning, but fly towards the water in the evening.

It is now past five o'clock in the afternoon, and the quails are about to fly to the water source, as long as you follow them, you can find the water source!

Shi Jian suddenly forgot about the exhaustion and the frustration of watering, and followed the quails from a distance, for fear of disturbing them and causing him to go wrong.
