Chapter 169

Standing on a rock.

Lu Yu glanced at the setting sun and raised his hand to measure it.

"In the process of survival, the concept of time is very important."

"Only in this way will you not be in a hurry."

"And for some important time nodes, we must be aware of it, such as sunrise and sunset. This will greatly facilitate us to deal with dangerous wilderness!"

"Without a watch or mobile phone, I will teach you a way to determine the sunset time."

"Just like this, raise your palm horizontally and place it between the sun and the horizon. One finger represents fifteen minutes. The cumulative time is the approximate time of sunset."

"666, you're getting better!"

"Isn't this too practical?"

"learned!"

"Fuck, is it true?"

"I don't know what you are talking about, but it feels so awesome!"

Following Lu Yu's method, many people in the live broadcast room went to test it themselves.

It turned out to be really practical.

They all said that they had learned another skill!

Know the sunset time.

Lu Yu made a plan in his mind and returned to the forest to continue on his way.

In order not to live in the wilderness, his steps unknowingly became much faster.

We walked forward for about ten minutes.

Suddenly an open space appeared ahead.

Tall trees stand among them.

There are overgrown weeds all around and they are growing happily.

Looking around, Lu Yu thought it was a good place.

Very suitable for setting up camp.

Away from water sources, the altitude reaches the standard, and the terrain is high and flat.

Judging from the growth direction of the vegetation, there should be no flash floods in the recent period, making it an ideal campsite.

"call--!"

There is a place to sleep.

Lu Yu breathed a long sigh of relief and looked around: "It's going to be dark in about an hour."

"Brothers, I decided to camp here tonight!"

As he spoke, he walked to a tall tree, took off the krait from his neck, and hung it on a branch.

Return to the clearing again.

Lu Yu pointed to his feet: "I will build a shelter here to spend the night."

At this time, someone asked on the barrage: "Please educate me! What is a shelter?"

Lu Yu smiled and explained: "Shelter is one of the three elements of survival. In some specific situations, it is even a higher priority than water and food!"

"A shelter is a type of shelter that has a long history and has been used by primitive humans since ancient times."

“Whether it’s a temporary residence or a long-term one, a good shelter can protect you from any threat in the wild.”

"In the wild, if you want to survive, building a shelter is essential. A shelter can not only reduce the harm to you from bad weather, but also reduce the intrusion of wild animals and insects. At the same time, compared to a lonely figure , it’s easier for air rescuers to find a campsite or shelter!”

After listening to Lu Yu’s explanation, the audience commented one after another:

"Damn it, this is the pace of building a house!"

“Building a house with your bare hands?”

"6666, this is amazing!"

"Feather God, please start your performance!"

“Come and do some archeology in 2020!”

While the audience was having mixed opinions, Lu Yu was already busy.

“When building a shelter, in addition to ensuring it is strong and secure, the most important thing is to adapt to local conditions and use local materials.”

"Also, don't imagine how comfortable a house can be built in a primeval forest. It is just a shack to help you tide over difficulties and take temporary refuge. Simple and practical is the way to go."

"Guys, we just need to get this trunk..."

After thinking for a while, Lu Yu walked to a rotten tree trunk.

As he spoke, he slowly lifted it up and placed it on the branch of a low tree.

"Put it on the branches of this tree and serve as the main beam of the house, and a simple shelter is built!"

The audience took a closer look.

Suddenly confused!

When two tree trunks are put together, it becomes a shelter?

"???"

"Feather God, stop joking, how can this thing protect you from wind and rain?"

"Confused face jpg!"

"Damn it, 666, is this too childish?"

Lu Yu smiled slightly, ignored the barrage, and continued to improve his wilderness residence.

After a while, he first picked up some fairly straight branches.

They were placed on the "main beam" in turn, enriching the roof.

Then, many palm leaves were folded from the palm trees on the side and covered on the roofs on both sides.

Back and forth.

A simple "double-roofed house" appeared in front of everyone.

Modern survival guru Ray Mills once explained in detail three ways to build a shelter in his book.

Compared with "single-roof sloping house" and "tree camp", "double-roofed sloping house" is the most widely used type of shelter in the wilderness.

Suitable for many extreme environments!

Very easy to create too!

In order to let people in this world have a comprehensive understanding of shelter, Lu Yu naturally chose this easy-to-use and easy-to-build slope house to demonstrate to them.

as expected.

When the audience in front of the screen saw that Lu Yu had built a shack for rest in just a few steps, they all felt very magical!

I couldn't see anything just now!

But after Lu Yu's construction, the camp actually looked like a real place!

"Fuck! Awesome!"

"666, Yu Shen's nest looks so cozy!"

"Real version of Minecraft?"

"Is it like playing a base building game?"

"Yu Shen, it's really TM6!"

"Master Yu is so clever!"

"23333333"

Standing up, Lu Yu adjusted the shooting angle of the drone and showed his nest to the audience in the live broadcast room.

"There are many kinds of shelters, this one is the simplest and most practical one. Because it is triangular, with two roofs on the left and right, I call it a double-top sloping house."

"How about it, brothers, not bad?"

The drone flew around the shelter.

It recorded a lot of details.

It attracted cheers from the people in the live broadcast room!

Sitting in front of the shelter, Lu Yu explained for a while, then changed the subject: "In the wilderness, the shelter can protect me from wind and rain and avoid attacks by wild animals, but this is far from enough."

"Next, there is another most important step that we need to perfect."

"That is moisture-proof work."

"Moisture-proof work is indispensable for staying overnight in the wild, especially in the mountain rainforest where the air humidity is far higher than that of the plains. Moisture-proof work is an imperative step."

"Because lying directly on the ground, the surface moisture will quickly take away the heat in your body, greatly reducing your mobility, or even directly falling ill, with serious consequences."

Lu Yu said while doing it, went to the side, and picked a lot of palm leaves.

"The leaves of this tropical plant are large and dense, which is a very good material for making a bed. As long as there are enough, it can definitely help you spend a cold night."

Soon, he covered the ground of the shelter with a thick layer of palm leaves.

It looks very warm.

If you really lie on it, it will probably be very comfortable.

Thinking of this, Lu Yu bent down, crawled into the shack, then stretched and lay down on it to feel it.
