Chapter 64 [Underestimating the Desert]
When he was in the air just now, Chen Ergou had already seen patches of dry and low plants in a hilly area in front of him, while the other three directions were endless golden deserts.
So naturally, he would go in that direction.
Taking the first step means that the adventure tour of the Sahara Desert has begun.
Chen Ergou's body temperature gradually rose, and he began to chatter, and he kept explaining the desert he knew. This is already his professional instinct as an anchor. If in such an environment, it would be even more terrifying to let him keep silent and walk alone.
"The desert looks barren, but it is actually the most primitive and beautiful place on earth, so even if people know that the desert environment is difficult, they will travel thousands of miles to the desert for sightseeing. You have seen the lonely smoke in the desert, and a bunch of camel bells on the sand dunes. photos, but have you ever seen a scene where a red desert is covered with ice and snow?"
The audience in the live broadcast room didn't believe it——
"Will it snow in the Sahara Desert? Lord Dog, are you kidding me?"
"I've never seen snow in any desert."
"Liar."
"Do not believe."
"Talking sarcastic."
Chen Ergou said with a smile: "Indeed, in the opinion of the general public, how can it snow in the Sahara Desert? But Lord Dog, I am not just talking about it, but there is a scientific basis."
"Because there are few clouds in the desert, strong sunshine, lack of vegetation coverage, and low air humidity, the temperature rises extremely fast during the day.
The average monthly temperature in the Sahara Desert is above 30°C for five months a year. We are here in winter, but the daytime temperature is still as high as 30°C. At night, because the cloudless ground has strong radiation and fast heat dissipation throughout the night, the lowest temperature at night is generally between 7°C and 12°C, and there are also days when thin frost appears. From a distance, it looks like a snowfall in the desert.
If such a natural phenomenon occurs, it will be very spectacular. "
If water friends collect this knowledge carefully, of course they can find it, but they can't get it at their fingertips like Chen Ergou, as if they know everything. This is exactly what makes his live broadcast so attractive.
His explanations were cadenced and his tone fluctuated, as if he was directing a "Legend" sand city siege.
This is a very old memory, which records his full childhood.
"In the desert, the surrounding environment is roughly the same. It is often just a wrong turn and you will lose your way. If you encounter this situation, if someone knows your whereabouts, it is best to stay where you are and wait for rescue. Try to know where you are. Stand out so that people can easily see you from high in the sky."
While talking, he saw a patch of stones of different sizes on the ground, and he immediately moved these stones and spliced them into a large triangle shape. Using a knife again, draw deep ditches on the triangle.
After all this last night, I wiped the sweat off my forehead and explained, "Everyone, don't think I'm wasting my energy."
"From the ground, it seems that I am doing useless work. The point is that if there is an airplane passing in the sky, the pilot can easily find your mark. Vertical lines are very rare in nature, and the large triangle shape is a universal distress signal. If you have a brightly colored item close at hand, such as a parachute, you can use that as well. It will increase your chances of survival.”
"If there is no one nearby to search and rescue, you have to try to escape on foot. The direction I am going now is the bushes I saw from the sky just now. There is also a canyon there. Maybe it will be easier to find food and water there. Then I have to leave an arrow mark on the spot, splice the fragmented stones into an arrow shape, and tell the team that may come to search and rescue you the direction of travel."
After finishing the demonstration, I saw that the barrage in the live broadcast room was full of chatting and spanking, and there were people urging him to leave quickly.
Chen Ergou put on a serious expression and said, "You Pipis,
Don't keep fighting with me. Take a good look and study hard, it is likely to save your life at a critical moment. "
"666666"
"Everyone sit down, put your hands on the desks, and listen to the class honestly."
"What Lord Dog taught me is that I have learned something again."
"Since watching Lord Dog's live broadcast, my mother no longer has to worry about my studies."
"It's much better than what the school teachers teach. Lord Dog, your knowledge is deeper than that of university professors."
...
Chen Ergou shook his head helplessly. He was really thirsty. He took a sip from the water bottle and said, "If you have water, drink it. You don't need to allocate it."
"Walking in the desert must be gradually adapted to the pace, and the walks in the heat should be slightly shorter at the beginning. Drink water or other fluids frequently, eat regular meals, and eat small meals at a time. Do not drink alcoholic beverages. It makes you less resistant to heat."
"The temperature is already very hot in the desert, and the biggest danger here is heat stroke and dehydration, and these two symptoms can come very quickly. The three diseases that are known to be caused by overexposure to desert heat include: Heat cramps, mild heatstroke, heatstroke. I won’t talk about the specific symptoms, anyway, none of them will make people feel good.”
"Murphy's Law tells us that bad things get worse and that if you're worried about something happening, it's more likely to happen. Don't make yourself sick, it can really kill you."
As he said that, he shook his head at the camera with an expression of thinking of something horrible.
Looking at the sky, he put on the assassin hat and said: "In a Chinese proverb, there is a saying that 'the head is blinded by heat'. I think this proverb is a reminder of the current situation. Under such heat, the brain You'll get dizzy, your body won't work, and you might be preying on vultures before you know it."
"So I like to wear hooded clothes. At this time, just wearing my hat will greatly relieve the situation. If you don't have a hat, you can also use your own sweater to make an Arabic-style headscarf and wrap it around your head."
"When you need to, piss on your hood, and while it definitely smells bad, it buys you more time in this almost grilling heat, and trust me, it works."
Someone in the live broadcast room began to instigate him to try, "I don't know how to do it, Mr. Dog, please pee on your head first as a demonstration."
"It turns out that this is what happens when you get dizzy from the heat. You have to be educated."
"Is Master Dog going to pee?"
Chen Ergou ignored them and continued on his way.
"Wangshan broke his leg", he had already walked for half an hour on the hills that seemed not far away.
Ridges of camel thorns gradually appeared in front of my eyes, sparse, withered yellow, lifeless.
The Sahara Desert is not all deserts as people imagine, in fact, there are many mountains. Most of the shapes are very different from the mountains you usually see in Asia.
At this time, the sunlight began to become stronger. Due to the high altitude, the ultraviolet rays here are particularly strong. If you don't wear sunglasses, it will hurt your eyes.
Chen Ergou put on his sunglasses early on, picked up the kettle habitually, and shook the kettle, but suddenly found that there was not much water left.
My heart couldn't help but start to chug.
He stopped and said, "My friends, I'm in trouble now."
"I only have one jug of water, about 500ml, which is too little. The physiological requirement for a normal adult to drink water is 3000ml per day. It is advisable to drink water at a time of 100ml to 300ml, and it should not exceed 1500ml. Milliliters, otherwise it is too much. But in the desert, this value will be greatly increased. How much water you need depends on how much you sweat and how much you do. Everyone must keep in mind the three principles of survival in the wild, no air We can only survive for 3 minutes without food; you can live for three weeks without food; you are lucky if you can survive more than 24 hours in the desert without water. Now I only have a sip of water left, but I am thirsty No, we have to think of a way."
The audience is used to his magic. Hearing him ask such a question, just assume that he has a solution, and don't worry about one or two.
Chen Ergou raised his head and drank the last bit of water, licked his dry lips with nostalgia, and his face couldn't help becoming bitter.
"I do have a method, and I also said this method during the live broadcast before."
"This method is to drink your own urine. Drinking it before the urine turns yellow can relieve some symptoms of dehydration."
...
"What did you say?"
"Just now?"
The audience in the live broadcast room was stunned for a moment, and then exploded instantly.
