Chapter 3: Conditions for Settling Down

The neural reflexes of modern individuals have indeed deteriorated significantly. Even a small hedgehog dares to perform tricks and lurk in front of us. A small hedgehog suddenly darted out about half a meter in front of my feet and successfully escaped. Liu Jingxue felt that her bed absolutely could not be within two meters of the ground

It is a habit developed from watching horror movies

The best part is that the surrounding trees are entwined with various climbing plants, which means I can set up a hammock. Looking contentedly at the campsite she had finally settled on, Liu Jingxue seemed to sense the delightful, swaying life ahead.

The venomous snake is a cold-blooded animal that prefers to rely on warm places. Thus, the captain experienced a moment of both coolness and fright—after the sun came out, the snake sought refuge in a cooler location. Fortunately, the snake left no souvenirs on the captain, merely subjecting his spirit to a test.

Piling up enough dry branches around to ensure the fire lasts until dawn, fortunately, there were plenty of dry branches nearby, and they were lucky to find a fallen dead tree. However, in the darkness where the firelight could not reach, a series of inexplicable sounds echoed, sending chills down Liu Jing's spine, who had watched many horror films.

Therefore, one should find a location with a higher elevation

The thickness of the bed has consequently increased by nearly 10 centimeters, and the height of the bed has dropped from approximately 2 meters above the ground to about 1.5 meters. As a result, Liu Jingxue's hand has also sustained several small cuts, from which a certain amount of blood has flowed out

Clear the area, pick up dead branches, establish a firebreak, and at the very least ensure that you will not be burned while you sleep. As for causing a forest fire, that is certainly unacceptable, because in that case, you would end up being roasted like a "duck," and not just any duck, but a male "duck".

In addition to snakes, there are also mice, weasels, scorpions, toads, spiders, ants, caterpillars and so on

Every little bit saved counts

The story of the farmer and the snake has been heard since childhood, and there are also accounts of the tortures in the snake cave in "Investiture of the Gods." For those cold, silent snakes that always move stealthily, perhaps it is only when they are on the dining table that they provide a sense of reassurance to people

Then, lay down tender branches, leaves, and soft vines to enhance comfort; bind some fragrant herbs and plants to repel certain malevolent insects. Along those vines, tie some thorny shrubs to prevent certain animals from harassing along this path. Additionally, bind a circle of strongly scented herbs and plants to deter cold-blooded animals that might cross the thorny shrubs, such as snakes.

However, those moments of indulgence were truly delightful. Reflecting on the experience of secretly watching horror movies with those girls late at night at school, Liu Jingxue couldn't help but salivate.

With a self-deprecating smile, Liu Jingxue stopped in the midst of a tall forest, deciding on the campsite for the night—where the dense canopy blocked the dangerous sky; the ground covered in fallen leaves indicated a minimal possibility of mountain and flood; the towering trees had taken over the living space of the ground shrubs, and in this clearing, there was also a large boulder. In the center of the stone, there was a sizable depression—here, a bonfire could be lit to drive away any ill-intentioned native inhabitants.

These little creatures are simply too audacious. Liu Jingxue, having finished peeling the yellow essence and set it aside, turned his face just to pick up a bundle of dry branches, and there was even a hedgehog daring to come and steal a bite. ... What if he fell asleep—Liu Jingxue seemed to see a hedgehog skillfully turning around beneath the hammock that hung close to the ground, a few sharp spines glinting coldly as they passed through the gaps in the hammock ...

According to the predetermined position, the several vines entwined around the two trees were wrapped around branches approximately two meters above the ground and pulled towards the center with considerable force. This was done to ensure that the vines would not slip down to the ground in the middle of the night or come too close to the ground, allowing certain small animals to take advantage. During Liu Jingxue's search for dead branches and the collection of Huangjing, he encountered at least several creatures resembling hedgehogs. Additionally, while looking for a campsite, he had a close encounter with a group that was likely wild boars. The rustling sounds indeed caused Liu Jingxue's hair to stand on end, wasting quite a bit of energy—he did not even register the sounds before they faded away. Fortunately, they showed no interest in Liu Jingxue, who weighed over one hundred pounds. If they had shown interest—Liu Jingxue shuddered.

The sun overhead gradually moves in a certain direction, which, according to the original custom, should be referred to as the West

Time is running short, and the yam is quite deep, so there is no time to dig it up. Let's just scrape together a pile of rhizoma polygonati and deal with it for now

It seems that a considerable amount of effort was expended, and this group finally understood—one of the most venomous snakes in the area had crawled into the captain's sleeping bag

If I had known, I would never have accompanied those girls to watch horror movies at midnight. Trembling and constantly looking around, Liu Jing felt a twinge of regret from the bottom of her heart: "In order to gain a little benefit, I ended up putting myself in a situation that makes me feel so frightened; it really doesn't seem worth it."

I consider myself relatively fortunate; after several adjustments and efforts, a wisp of blue smoke finally rose gently before the sun grew impatient and prepared to sleep.

The shrubland is indeed a place rich in biodiversity. This is similar to coral reefs in the ocean, which are also areas of extreme species richness. I wonder if this could serve as evidence for the theory of the origin of the ocean.

Drilling wood to create fire? I am not sure which book studied this. It requires a strong individual to work at full capacity for several hours. However, food has not yet been gathered, the hammock has not been made, and the insect-repelling herbs have not been harvested. Time is insufficient

Perhaps it is better to find another place to sleep. At the very least, one should not wake up in the morning to find their face covered in spider webs, caterpillars crawling through their hair, or a particularly greedy ant preparing to use them as winter sustenance. ... Such a scenario ...

I picked up two pieces of what appeared to be hard stones—flint? I couldn't find hetushucomcom. Moreover, even if I had found it, I wouldn't recognize it; how many modern people are familiar with such things? Matches are rarely used anymore. If it weren't for the health hazards of smoking and the fear of death, Liu Jing wouldn't be without even a lighter, and now I have to strike these two stones together to create a spark.

This is the improvement and modification made by Liu Jingxue after rolling off the "bed" to the ground three times. It fundamentally ensures the stability and sturdiness of the bed.

Looking around and wandering aimlessly, Liu Jingxue could not find a sufficiently safe place to set up camp—everywhere he looked seemed to hold the potential for an accident

In wilderness survival, what conditions should the place of residence meet

A pit was dug in the ground, into which the Huangjing was thrown and spread out. It should not be too thick, otherwise it will not cook properly. Then, a layer of soil was sprinkled on top, and the fire pit was moved over. After that, one could attend to other matters—essentially mimicking the method of roasting sweet potatoes in the countryside, which is quite similar to the process of making Beggar's Chicken. This indicates—"I am hungry, and there are still many things to do, time is tight." After brushing off the dust from her hands, Liu Jingxue, having resolved the issue of food, shifted her focus to the matter of sleep.

However ... ...

I do not remember which book I saw this in, but it should have taken place in the jungle region of South America. A group of campers woke up one morning to find their leader still sleeping in, which was unusual as he was typically the first to rise. Concerned, they went to check on him to see if he was unwell. Upon approaching, they found the leader drenched in sweat, his eyes wide open, lying still in his sleeping bag and not moving at all. When they asked him questions, he did not dare to respond, only desperately signaling to them.

The Polygonatum has ripened

At the very least, it should ensure that one can wake up naturally.

In this subtropical jungle, dense shrubs grow near the mountaintop

First and foremost, safety should be prioritized. Areas near dense forests and shrubs should not be considered. Not to mention the presence of tigers or leopards, even snakes...

The hammock has roughly taken shape, with two vines intertwined and a thicker branch supporting it in the middle. It is then wrapped and twisted, adding structure and support. After considerable effort, a hammock resembling the sole of a straw sandal has successfully come into being, appearing quite stable, especially with the six interwoven vines around it, ensuring that Liu Jing, who weighs over 100 pounds, should not fall off if she does not make any significant movements.

Then, it was time to start the fire

The night gradually deepens, and within the vast darkness, it seems to conceal infinite dangers

Therefore, one should find a relatively open area that is not too low-lying, to avoid being submerged in water while sleeping at midnight or being swept away by a sudden flash flood—although it seems unlikely that there would be a flood at midnight here, what if water from other areas flows in?

First, take some soft, dry leaves and finely crushed moss, knead them into a soft, fibrous substance, and form a small pile. Then, use the two pieces of stone you collected to strike that pile of fluff vigorously.

It is often said that the older a doctor gets, the more timid they become. Why is it that as a young person, I am also so timid
