In The DC World With Marvel Chat Group Chapter 638: City and Wilderness (Part 2)
"The Days of Being a Spiritual Mentor in Meiman"
, the days when I was a spiritual mentor in Meiman
Oliver Queen, a rich man who was spoiled and pampered since he was a child, was pushed into the sea for some reason, drifted to a deserted island, and survived alone on this isolated island in the sea for three months. .
Generally speaking, this kind of situation is unlikely to happen. The probability of encountering an isolated island while floating in the ocean is very low. Without any survival knowledge and skills, if you want to survive here, It's also nearly impossible.
However, Oliver, who later became the Green Arrow, not only has a stronger will than ordinary people, but also has better luck than ordinary people.
The place where he was pushed into the water was not far from the island, and his habit of exercising all year round also ensured that he had enough physical strength to float on the water and successfully disembark from the shallows of the island. .
But likewise, he is also very unfortunate. This season is the season when tropical storms often come. He encountered a storm as soon as he landed. Failed to maintain a good rhythm of survival.
Survival on a deserted island is not as simple as many people think. In the game of survival on a deserted island, players can see their own survival values. When they are hungry or thirsty, they can check the hunger bar and water bar. to judge.
However, in the real world, there is no such data. Oliver has just experienced a storm and consumed a lot of physical strength, but he did not have an accurate judgment. He mistakenly thought that he was still energetic, so he planned to board this At the top of the cliff, the highest point of the island, see if you can see the boat.
However, the terrain here was far more difficult than he imagined, and he was already hungry when he walked halfway.
At this time, the most deadly problem appeared. Although Oliver had no experience in wilderness survival, he knew that fruits and mushrooms in the wild should not be eaten casually. Therefore, the way to eat plants to fill his stomach was blocked. up.
Then the only thing left is to hunt and eat meat. There are a lot of prey in the tropical rainforest. There are birds in the sky, fish in the water, and turtles on the beach. The problem is that he can't deal with any of them.
There is no way to catch birds and fish with bare hands. He has to make tools, but to make tools, he needs to find raw materials, and if he wants to get raw materials, he has to spend his energy collecting plants or groping for stones.
But because he misjudged his physical strength before, when he realized that he was hungry, he no longer had the energy to do these things.
The vast majority of losers who survived in the wilderness failed for this reason. Human beings have little understanding of their own bodies, and there are many abnormalities that cannot be discovered in the first place. It can be redeemed.
However, Oliver's luck was better than others. He found a small stream, and there were some small fish in the pool at the drop of the stream, which he could catch without much effort.
This kind of small fish does not have much meat, but the advantage is that it is quite large and easy to obtain. It was just after the storm ended, and the fish came to the surface one after another, and they were immediately caught by Oliver and killed. After cleaning, there was no time to light the fire to grill the fish, so it was sent into the mouth like that.
"To be honest, the taste is not as terrible as I imagined, maybe because, at that time, I was already extremely hungry, and I thought they were quite delicious..." Oliver roasted the fire in the cave while Said.
"In terms of eating raw, fish is pretty good, especially if the fish is cleaned, at least there is no strange smell." Arthur nodded and said.
"However, you have to pay attention to parasites. The fish you are talking about should be freshwater fish, right? Parasites are quite scary." Schiller reminded.
Oliver shook his head and said: "Compared to parasites, I am more afraid of starving to death. For a long time, this group of small fish ensured that I would not be starved to death, and passed the early stage smoothly." .”
"What about after that?" Arthur asked curiously. He had never heard such a Robinson-style adventure story, so he was very interested in it.
"After regaining my strength, I knew that the next storm would not be long. I had to find a shelter for myself. I wanted to build one myself, but I found that I couldn't..." Oliver There was a helpless expression on his face.
It is impossible to expect a rich man to learn how to survive overnight. At the beginning, Oliver could only use some dense palm leaves to entangle and tie them between two big trees. An awning.
But because he doesn't know how to weave, entanglement means knotting randomly. This kind of shed has a very short lifespan and consumes a lot of leaves. He has to keep changing positions so that there are enough palm trees for him to pull leaves.
The only advantage of guarding the creek is that there is no shortage of water, and the food problem can be temporarily solved. The only fatal thing is the upcoming tropical storm.
"After living there for seven or eight days, I realized that I had to get out of there. If I didn't, I might die there when the next storm came."
"I have to find a place that is strong enough to use as a shelter, instead of just putting those leaves on top of my head to fool myself."
"And you found this cave?" Schiller asked,
"Yes, I feel very lucky to have such a cave for me to take refuge, but the problem here is that there is no food, and the water source is far away. I have to make tools to try to hunt, otherwise I will starve to death. "
Arthur's eyes fell on the bow in his hand, and he said, "You made this? It's not bad."
Oliver sighed and said: "I just remember the general shape of bows and arrows. The strings of bows and arrows are still made of palm leaf fibers, which are not elastic enough, so the bows and arrows can't fly far, and because the arrow tails don't have feathers to keep them balanced, the aim is very difficult. Poor."
"However, in the second month, I successfully hunted a wounded cormorant with this bow, and successfully had a good meal."
"It was that meal that kept me going until now. After that, I could only eat some small lizards, or shells and hermit crabs I found by chance. There are no large meaty animals on this island, but If there is, I may be the one who died."
"Have you ever considered fishing?" Schiller asked.
Oliver showed an embarrassed expression and said: "I can fish, and I have also participated in sea fishing, but..."
"Oh, I see." Arthur made a clear expression, and said, "It's normal, the rich people who come to our place for tourism are like that, they don't know all kinds of fishing rods of various brands, they don't know fish. The difference between the line and the bait is what’s the use, just sit there for a day, if you don’t catch it, ask others to buy it.”
"Of course, I don't deny that some people really like fishing. I can chat with them quite well. However, this group of rich people often like to underestimate sea fishing. They don't think about it. The brand of fishing rod, type of fishing line and type of bait used are actually the experience of others.”
"If I throw them on a deserted island, I'm afraid they can't even make a fishing rod, let alone make fishing line, catch bait, find a suitable place to put the rod, and according to different fishing rods and The type of fishing line, the timing of lifting the rod has changed.”
Oliver nodded, and said deeply: "It's not that I have never tried to make a fishing rod. Everyone knows that offshore fish is the best source of food..."
"However, there is no such kind of flexible wood that can be used to make fishing rods here, and the effect of using fibers to make lines is also very bad. I use small fish in the stream as bait, and no fish bites the hook... "Oliver sighed and told his own failure experience. He said:
"More importantly, fishing on the deck of a cruise ship is completely different from fishing on the beach or on the reef. Sometimes, it is difficult for me to judge whether the fish is hooked or not, and I can't feel it at all. "
When it comes to this part, Arthur is very excited. He said: "I think you use the same material as your arrow shaft to make the fishing rod. This kind of thing should be some kind of plant stem, but it is too hard. High and too brittle, it’s okay for an arrow shaft, but it’s easy to break halfway for a fishing rod.”
"Also, it is totally possible to use fiber as a fishing line. Offshore fishing does not have high requirements for fishing lines. However, if you want to fish with a fishing line that does not have much toughness, the technique is very important, and you must close the rod in time."
"There is also bait. It is okay to use the small fish you mentioned, but it may be better to use their internal organs..."
"Then why don't you try it?" Schiller turned his head and looked outside and said, "The storm has stopped, it's time to go out and have a look."
A few people walked out along the door of the cave, and found that the plants on the island had been blown beyond recognition. Arthur turned to Oliver and said, "You wait here first, Professor Schiller, please take care of him. I'll get some materials back."
Because there are indeed no large predators on this island. Although the resources are relatively scarce, they are not too dangerous, so the two let Arthur go out alone, and Arthur came back within half an hour. There are a lot of things in it.
He used the cattail fan leaves made of the same material as his hat to weave a net bag, which looks like a fishing net, but it can be used to hold things after holding the four corners.
There was a big stone, a lot of messy leaves, and some plant roots, and he carried a long and thin piece of wood on his shoulder.
Arthur put these things on the ground, then pointed to them and said to the two of them: "Professor Schiller, please deal with this stone, this half can be made into a pot or a bowl, and this half Make it sharper and use it to cut fibers and wood later."
When Arthur saw that Schiller was able to dig such a large rock wall, he knew that he had the ability to handle stones, so he specially brought back a large stone. This stone was relatively flat and wide from top to bottom. But it is not very deep, so it is suitable for a shallow pot, and the edge is just right for an axe.
"The two of us will separate these leaves and tear them into strips. Later, we will go to the creek to get some water, boil the water with fire, and cook the fibers."
"The cooked fibers will be more resilient and stronger, and not as brittle as the original leaves." Arthur said succinctly in this regard, he said: "See this net? Although I use it It is used to hold things, but this is actually a small fishing net, which is a hand-cast net made by fishermen with boiled fibers, which can be used to cast nets for fishing.”
Arthur sat down and began to tidy up the leaves. He said: "I saw it when I came here. There are many fish schools nearby. Compared with fishing rods, it is faster to cast a net to catch fish."
"The storm has blown down a lot of big trees. We can find some wood, make a small canoe, and cast the net a little farther from the coast. In that case, the fish in one net will be enough for us to eat for a long time. .”
Schiller looked at his face, and Arthur was a little uncomfortable being stared at by him. After a while, Schiller lowered his head to deal with the stone and said, "I take back what I said before, you don't have to go Try it in a big city."
Schiller sighed and thought in his heart that perhaps he was indeed arrogant enough to think that cities are all human beings, but in fact, there are still many places on this earth that have not been set foot by human beings. Such wilderness and isolated islands.
In the city, he can drink coffee leisurely, stand in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows and watch the rain, even if it is as cold as the rain in Gotham night, it will only become the music to help him sleep.
However, when he came to an inaccessible desert island, the conditions for survival were no longer the complex knowledge in civilized society, but the simple fishermen's experience in Arthur's mind.
Among the three people, on the contrary, Arthur, who is the youngest, has never read any books, and has never experienced life in a big city, can have the most advantage in survival.
Soon, the sun shot out from the thick clouds~IndoMTL.com~The plants covered with water droplets became tall and straight again.
Schiller thinks that in a cartoon that mainly depicts cities and people in cities, few people will notice that these cities and people also live on this blue planet, and here, there are countless The vast world.
In just a few tens of minutes, the forest regained its vitality again. Compared with this scene, the various stories that happened in the dark city are like small episodes in a grand performance.
Perhaps, a certain bat that has been living in the cave has traveled around for more than ten years, but has not had the patience to devote himself to the wilderness.
Therefore, I can only listen to the episodes, trying to find artistry in the uncomplicated tunes, until I feel that I can't sing alone, and the tunes are few.
Thinking of this, Schiller suddenly smiled, and said to Arthur: "You guys do it first, I'll go get some fresh air." After speaking, he left the cave.
20 minutes later, over the isolated island, Schiller sat in the cab of the bat fighter and said, "Which button is the engine off?"
Hal next to him swallowed and said, "Are you sure you want to do this? This thing broke, I can't afford it."
"It's okay, someone can afford it."
Speaking, Schiller lifted a transparent plastic cover, and then punched the red button inside hard.
Tens of seconds later, there was a violent shock in the cave, and Arthur and Oliver suddenly turned their heads. The flames of the explosion illuminated their faces, and they opened their mouths in shock.
At the same time, a doubtful voice came from Wayne Manor:
"Why did the plane crash??????"
