Chapter 896 Lake Turkana [Come to the starting point to subscribe]

The slightly difficult trek continued in the semi-desert terrain.

Maomao doesn't like to meet strangers, so when Jia Long met with the locals in the previous few times, he hid away.

No one seems to have noticed what it looks like.

When Jia Long moved in a certain direction, Maomao would run out from the bushes and follow step by step.

This scene made everyone in the live broadcast room, regardless of boys and girls, sigh -- Xiao Mao Mao is so obedient.

After walking for a while, Maomao, who is not used to walking on sandy roads, also looks a little tired and uncomfortable to follow.

Two figures, one big and one small, were fortunately trekking in the semi-desert terrain on the border between Ethiopia and Kenya.

Jia Long observed the sun all the way, and walked along a straight line with Maomao in the semi-desert.

It wasn't until her back was wet with sweat and her feet felt a little heavy that her eyes lit up again.

"Looking ahead, I think we're getting where we want to be."

The girl suddenly looked forward in surprise and shouted loudly.

After hard work, there is often a sweet reward.

Now is the time to harvest.

Because in front of her eyes was a shimmering scene of large expanses of water resources.

This is a huge lake.

"Haha, everyone saw it. This is the Lake Turkana I mentioned. It is the largest lake in Kenya, which is rich in water resources, and it is also the fourth largest lake in East Africa."

Jia Long smiled happily, and went straight to the big lake in front of him.

"Lake Turkana, this is a large lake full of legends. It is 280 to [-] kilometers wide from east to west, [-] kilometers long from north to south, and has a total area of ​​[-] square kilometers. Is it an exaggeration?"

"I can't finish talking about its legends and data in one night. I will only talk about a few of the more important ones."

rustling.

It seems that because she found the target, the girl walked a little more cheerfully.

"Regarding the origin of human beings, there are quite ancient ape fossils unearthed in Ethiopia, but in the history of the world, the earliest complete human bone fossils found that match the characteristics of modern humans are actually on the shore of Lake Turkana. Also That is to say, this lake is very likely to be a very important place for our early ancestors to survive."

"Is it on fire? But there is another data about this lake, which will surprise everyone, that is, there are many wild animals living around this lake, from the lions, cheetahs, From leopards, hyenas, wild dogs, to elephants, flamingos and other animals that we have not seen before, there are so many kinds, and the numbers are so huge that it is incredible."

"You should know that there are more than 1 crocodiles in this lake alone. The largest Nile crocodile has even been found and recorded as long as more than ten meters. It shows the diversity and complexity of the species here."

While speaking, the girl had already walked a road of 300 meters, along the semi-desert gravel land, to the lakeside with a little green grass.

If there is no vegetation around the lake, it means that the lake is no longer suitable for the growth of animals and plants.

Obviously, Lake Turkana is by no means a large lake unsuitable for animal reproduction.

Wow...wow...wow.

The blue waves are mighty, and the lake water keeps beating the lakeside.

Standing by the lake, Jia Long only felt that what he was facing was not a lake, but the sea.

"What a big lake."

"The vastness!"

Maomao followed at Jia Long's feet, yelling hard at Jia Long.

However, what it yelled out was just a small milky growl of '嗤咕咦咚'.

"It's really big."

"Awesome, the lake is so clean."

"It's green inside, is it water plants?"

"Look at the other side, there is an island in the lake."

"There are forests beside the lakes in other places, but Menglonglong has nothing here, it's completely like a desert."

"There is no way in the semi-desert area, didn't Xiao Long say that?"

After watching Jia Long's live broadcast for so long, the audience was not so excited about the beautiful lake they saw for the first time.

After all, I have seen the second highest mountain in the world, as well as the authentic sea and desert, so this lake is so big.

Everyone expressed calmness.

But why is Meng Longlong so restless?
The fans were a little embarrassed. As a person who has witnessed so many scenes in person, Master Long made such a fuss, which is a bit embarrassing.

We are all people who have seen the world, okay, why are you so restless.

Of course, Jia Long is not calm. As a person who loves the outdoors and beautiful scenery, she will do so whenever she goes to a beautiful scenery.

Between the scenery and the scenery, it is impossible to compare wins and losses, okay?
"Rake, there is a month, there is a month!"

After Maomao yelled a few words after Jia Long, the bear's eyes suddenly lit up, and he yelled at Jia Long's trouser legs.

It was showing Jia Long.

"Is there any fish? Dad, let's see."

Jia Long lowered his head and looked at the lake in front of him.

is not that right?

There are green algae floating in the crystal-clear lake water, and among these algae, there are swimming shadows.

What is it if it is not a fish?
"I'm not wrong, there are a lot of fish in Lake Turkana."

In the distance, several small boats paddled slowly on the lake, on which were local people fishing.

"The so-called relying on mountains to eat mountains, relying on water to eat water, these Africans living on the shores of Lake Turkana, all live on this water. Most of these local people are ethnic groups that have lived and multiplied here for generations. You must know There is a history of human existence here, going back millions of years, and is it possible that their group was one of those that remained so long ago?"

Of course, Jia Long was talking nonsense. A million years is an unimaginable time span for ordinary humans.

During this period, Africa experienced changes in temperature and environment. If an African tribe living around Lake Turkana can really be traced back to such a long time ago, it would be a miracle.

And the so-called history has never been the truth.

"A brother said just now that the color of this lake is green, right? In fact, this is considered blue-green. The reason for this color is because there is a small body called 'cyanobacteria' growing in this lake. Spirulina, their color causes the lake to turn blue-green, some people may think this color is ugly, but I think it is very beautiful."

Standing on the edge of the vast lake, the clear water reaches the sky, and the lake water reflects the clouds in the sky, which makes people feel refreshed.

It is different from the feeling of seeing all the mountains at a glance on K[-].

"I was stunned, but I didn't forget what I had to do, which was the celebration luncheon. Wow, is it already 09:30? If you don't hurry up, there will be no time to find ingredients and make lunch."

Jia Long looked at the outdoor multifunctional watch on his wrist, and felt sorry for the lost time.

Fortunately, her hands and feet are still fast, especially with the support of internal strength, it seems that after a few times of adjusting her breathing, most of the physical strength she lost just now has been replenished.

Kung fu is cultivated in one breath, and those who have achieved it have a long breath and their recovery power is far beyond ordinary people.

It only took 5 minutes to untie the light tent tied at the bottom from the back of the backpack, and it was quickly set up.

After laying the floor mats, the girl took out the fishing line and hook from the backpack.

"Hey, it's said that the fish in Lake Turkana are big, fat and delicious. I'm going to catch one or two to add some color to our celebration luncheon."

"It should be noted here that fishing is prohibited in Lake Turkana, but it is for commercial fishing and hunting. It is not prohibited for ordinary people's daily life and fishing enthusiasts to come here for small-scale fishing and hunting. So I don't It's a crime."

This is the first time that Jia Long has so many tools and materials to play outdoors, but she is not used to it.

It took her two to three minutes to hang the fishing line on the hook, either it couldn't be hooked, or she was not satisfied.

After 3 minutes, Jia Long lowered his head and looked around.

Soon, she found what she wanted to see.

"Lots of grasshoppers and caterpillars, let's use them as bait."

Amidst the exclamation of the audience, especially the female audience who had just come to the live broadcast room, Jia Long grabbed the low bushes next to the tent with one hand.

Not long after, a three-centimeter-long, bluish-black, wriggling bug appeared in her hand.

"Haha, is this bug scary? But it's actually the larva of a butterfly that is very common in Africa. This butterfly is called the African Dharma swallowtail, which is very common in Africa. And it is non-toxic, and the larvae are pests."

"Use it now to help us fish."

Jia Long completely ignored everyone's surprise at how she dared to grab the caterpillar with her hands, and just strung the caterpillar into the fishhook on her own.

"Because we don't have a fishing rod, we can only use short branches instead."

She tied one end of the fishing line to an elastic dead branch picked up at random, and then inserted the other end of the branch into the soft sand and stones by the lake.

puff.

The fishing line with the buoy was thrown by the girl into a place more than ten meters away from the shore.

In this way, it took 15 minutes to make three identical simple fishing rods, and Jia Long ended the operation here.

It is said that it is a celebration banquet, but what can I do with only fish.

"Maomao, are you a brave little girl? Just do what Dad said just now."

"Yes, Mao Mao is brave and Qiao Guliang!"

Crouching down and looking at Mao Mao for a long time, he wailed happily and ran away into the bushes like a bear.

On this side, watching the little guy run away, Jia Long turned around to explain to the drone camera.

"Do you know what I told Maomao? Actually, I used the aggressive method to make him go hunting."

"But don't worry about Maomao, it won't go far. I don't really think it can hunt, just keep it out of the way. Of course, if there is any harvest, it will be a surprise, maybe it will give us a little surprise?"

Jia Long smiled slyly.

Of course she would not say that with Mao Mao's ability, she would definitely gain something.

It was a normal judgment for Jia Long, but there was a lot of discussion in the barrage, with both pros and cons.

"Let the pet bear leave by itself? Are you showing off, the anchor?"

"Although Maomao is really smart, he's not so smart. Be careful when he goes away."

"Meng Longlong, although I like you, I have to scold you this time. It's too bad for Maomao."

"That's right, Maomao is not human after all. What if it can't find its way back?"
