Are You Telling An Eight-Year-Old To Survive In The Wilderness? - Chapter 302
302 Fatal Temperature
After adjusting the angle of the live-stream, Bell said.
“Everyone, our luck is not bad. We found a cave.
It looks like a cave of a beast.”
As he spoke, Bell crawled in and picked up a bone from the ground, holding it in front of the camera.
“This bone proves what I just said. There is even some fur scattered on the ground.
If I am not wrong, there should have been a carnivorous beast here.
It should be a Siberian tiger or brown bear.
But we can’t be sure yet. The smell in this cave is already very faint.
Moreover, there are no footprints on the snow, so the beast should have left long ago.
This beast did not return for at least three days. ”
Hearing Bell’s words, many audience members in the live-stream asked Bell what would happen if this beast suddenly returned. Bell explained patiently.
“Actually, you don’t have to worry about this at all. Although this cave might belong to a Siberian tiger or a black bear, the possibility of them returning is extremely low.
First of all, Siberian tigers live alone. Moreover, they don’t have a fixed residence and have an activity range of up to 100 square kilometers, so they usually don’t live in the same cave twice.
As for the bears, it’s winter now. It’s already the hibernation period for the black bear and brown bear.
If it was really a cave for bears, then the fact that they have not returned for three days means that they are probably dead. Otherwise, they would not have left their cave for a long time.
However, our problem is not completely resolved.
This cave is not enough for us to survive this cold night. I have to see if I can find anything useful.”
Bell put down his backpack and crawled out of the hole again. He began to dig at the snow on the ground.
“It is impossible to completely isolate us from the temperature of the ground with just the roe deer skin.
Under the snow, there is often some dry grass.
In this area, herbivores like red deer and roe deer would push aside the snow and eat the dry grass hidden below.
The sky is starting to darken. We have to move quickly and gather as much grass as possible.”
“What is this?”
While digging, Bell suddenly noticed some moss beside the rock near the cave.
The moss was clearly frozen to death, revealing a withered yellow color.
He grabbed a large handful and placed it in front of the camera.
“Look, these things are called peat moss. Under normal circumstances, healthy peat moss is very useful to us.
They have anti-inflammatory and bacteria-killing effects.
In the first world war, most countries in Europe used this peat moss to wrap their wounds.
But even if they are already dead, they are still very useful to us.
Perhaps they can save our lives tonight. ”
While he was talking, the sky had completely darkened.
Bell could clearly feel the surrounding temperature beginning to decrease.
Sensing this, Bell quickly stopped what he was doing.
In just a while, Bell had already gathered a lot of peat moss.
This cave was not very wide, so Bell easily covered the ground with a layer of mud moss.
After laying layers of moss, it was like a soft sofa.
After doing this, Bell realized that he still had some peat moss left, so he put them aside.
If he felt cold at night, he could use them as his blanket.
Bell used the snow to firmly seal the hole, not leaving a gap. Then, he put the parachute on the peat moss and laid the deerskin atop it.
He finally lay down.
After a busy day, Bell felt much more relaxed.
Fatigue surged in his heart.
“It feels quite good and warm.”
With that, Bell took out lynx skin and covered himself with it.
Even the remaining peat moss was piled on his body, covering him tightly.
In the live-stream, because of the night vision function, the audience looked at Bell who was completely buried in peat moss. Only his head was left, and his head was covered with a scarf and hat. He was fully armed.
He was covered with clothes, fur, parachute, and moss. These were things that could prevent Bell’s body temperature from decreasing.
Looking at the live broadcast, Bell sighed helplessly.
“I don’t have any other requests now. I just hope to pass the night safely.
However, this feels quite warm. ”
Bell felt good at first, but as time passed, he felt the temperature drop.
His entire body was trembling.
Looking at the live broadcast, Bell said while trembling.
“When a person is in an extremely cold state, their body will subconsciously tremble.
This is a self-protection mechanism of the human body.
The nerves are stimulated. This information is transmitted to the brain, making the bones and muscles tremble to increase the heat in the body to maintain the core temperature and prevent people from freezing to death.
Therefore, if you are shivering in the cold, it means that your core temperature is gradually decreasing. ”
To be honest, if not for Bell’s attributes that far exceeded ordinary people and his passive talent skill, he might have already frozen to death.
But there was a limit to everything, and Bell’s current condition was actually at this critical point.
With his super endurance and stamina, he could still maintain his core body temperature and ensure that he would not freeze to death.
But as time passed, the temperature would continue to drop.
If this continued, it would be hard to say what the outcome would be.
Bell thought for a moment and chose to stand up from the moss.
He stuffed dry grass which he had gathered earlier into his down jacket, making him look bloated.
After doing all this, Bell lay down again and covered himself with the lynx skin and moss.
However, his mouth was still trembling.
