Live Wilderness Adventure

At night, the stars hang over the plains. The sea glitters with light spots, and the sound of water ripples.

Bi Fang lifted the wooden board and flipped open the palm leaves, then opened the canvas bag, and placed a piece of shark meat patty in it. Picking up a piece, it exuded a strong smoky smell, with a little bit of fishy embarrassment in the middle.

The meat is minced, marinated with salt and spices, then exposed to the sun and finally smoked, and even fried. After such a complicated procedure, ordinary people may not smell the unique smell of shark meat, but For Bi Fang's nose, it still exists, but it has been basically covered by the smoky smell.

It doesn't taste like shark meat anymore, it's more salty and smoky, but it's not unpleasant, just like ordinary meat patties.

It's just that in order to remove toxins and the smell of urine, such a complicated work naturally lost a lot of nutrients. Bi Fang mixed it with the fish caught today, and the taste was not bad.

"This is the end of the live broadcast today. Although it's nothing major, it will be a really difficult time later. I need to keep my spirits up."

After dinner, and chatting on the live broadcast for a while, Bi Fang closed the live broadcast and lay in the Viking and looked up at the stars.

The hull undulates.

The hull of the Viking is very deep, so deep that when you lie inside and look out, you can only see a starry sky. Although it is narrow, it can give people enough sense of security.

Bi Fang rested his arms on the back of his head and fell asleep with a little tiredness. The next day.

The fishing line was stretched straight, Bi Fang stood at the bow of the boat and wrestled with the big fish in the sea, sweat dripping down the corner of his forehead, leaving behind hoarfrost.

The whole boat was dragged away by the fish, and the shadows scattered by the sun were blurred, making it impossible to even see what kind of fish it was.

It wasn't until half an hour later that the unstoppable fishing line snapped and the big fish disappeared without a trace.

Bi Fang collapsed on the boat, panting heavily, lifted the lid of the carbon water collection device, picked up the wooden water cup and drank it, heaving a sigh of relief.

He stretched out his hands, which were covered with cracked skin, with a little pain and numbness, and he was almost rubbed with blood by the big fish.

[Damn, I feel like it was close!] [Unfortunately] [I bet, at least a bluefin gun!]

[Fang Shen, what kind of fish is that? Tell me now]

Bi Fang shook his head: "I don't know, I was underwater all the time, the weather was so good today, and the water was full of light spots, I didn't even see what kind of fish it was, maybe it was blue flag tuna, haha ."

It has been sailing for a day, and it is really rare to encounter such a big fish, but Bi Fang is not a pity, he is not fishing for food.

It's best to have, and you won't starve to death if you don't have it. "There are fewer and fewer birds flying in the sky."

Bi Fang sat up and looked up at the sky. In the daytime yesterday, birds could be seen frequently on the sea surface, but now they can't be seen.

This means the canoes are in the right direction, they are heading away from the island and land.

"One of the more interesting things about flying birds is how the Polynesians found islands in the vast Pacific Ocean."

"Only ships are not enough for ocean voyages. Polynesians also need to solve the problem of navigation. Although there are no compass and navigation clock, people at that time have learned to use astrology. Even if they can't do it during the day, they can calibrate the course at night, but they can't predict. , they don't know where the island or land is."

[In other words, Fang Shen didn't say it, I didn't even realize this problem] [So it was determined by the birds?] [What is the context of connection, hahaha]

"Yeah, how to find the island, their approach is more groundbreaking, that is - follow the bird!"

"The Polynesians found that most of the seabirds needed to build their nests on the islands, and even if they went out for food, they would not leave the islands too far away."

"In the evening, the birds always fly in one direction, and it is easy to spot the island if you follow them."

[I really kneel down for the wisdom of these ancients!] [Too witty]

[In other words, if you use the stars to judge the direction at night, what should you do during the day, if you go wrong, you can only go wrong?]

"Not really." Bi Fang pointed to the sun in the sky, "If you are sensitive enough to the height of the sun, you can actually directly and roughly judge the direction, or you can erect a shadow to see the length of the shadow, but this is a personal problem. High expectations."

"Although it will change with the seasons, the change of the sun's height is constant. Just record the month and clearly grasp the height change that the sun should have in this month."

[This is something a human can do?] The audience was a little surprised.

The sun rises in the east and sets in the west, rising to the highest point at twelve o'clock, there is no doubt about this, so by comparing with yesterday, it is natural to get the approximate time now.

But such a comparison is too strong to be difficult.

But this is not true for Bi Fang. The memory forest allows him to compare the photo of the highest point of the sun yesterday with today, and the error can even be reduced within half an hour.

"With time, it is easy to judge the direction. For example, if you draw a watch and then mark the time, it is the simplest way to judge the direction with a watch. Look at the difference between the hour hand and 12 o'clock, and take half of the number. where the sun is."

"Master this, for example, at 8:00 in the morning, raise your watch and point the direction of 10:00 to the sun, then the direction of 12:00 is almost south, which I have said more than once."

"In addition, there are wind directions. The sea sometimes blows wind according to the season. I have also mentioned this. There are also ocean currents. The direction of ocean currents is regular, generally from high pressure to low pressure. If you can generally determine your own The location can be roughly judged according to the direction of the ocean current."

"However, whether it is wind direction or ocean currents, you need to be proficient in geography, which is more difficult and is not recommended as the first choice, and ocean currents are not very useful in the South Pacific. Remember what I said before, this is a large circulation, in the There is a dead silence in this whirlpool of ocean currents."

"The wind direction is easy to judge. The sea surface wind field in the South Pacific is very stable. Not much to say. The low altitude in April is basically the southeast trade wind."

"If none of the above, then see if there is any thin wire around you, and then prepare a pot of water. This is the ultimate simple method, but because it is on the sea, the vibration amplitude is relatively high, and the success rate is high and accurate. The rate depends on the timing."

Bi Fang rummaged for a while on the Viking, and finally found a paper clip.

Before setting off, Bi Fang deliberately collected some "garbage" that might be useful but seemed useless on Easter Island, just for this time.
