Are You Telling An Eight-Year-Old To Survive In The Wilderness?

Chapter 54: Crunch Crunch Chicken Taste

The audience was stunned when they heard Bell’s comments.

“Why do I have a bad feeling?”

“Little scorpion, run!”

“Scorpio lovers express strong condemnation.”

Some of the audience had already guessed what Bell was doing.

But most of them were just teasing.

Bell did not plan to stop.

It was already very rare to have some food in this desert.

Living was the foundation of survival.

“Alright, don’t joke. Just like you all thought, it’s my food now.”

“Although this thing looks a little disgusting, it has enough protein.”

“You can eat it with ease as long as you remove the poisonous glands and sting on its tail.”

Bell carefully cut off the poisonous sting on the scorpion’s tail.

Then, he picked it up and showed it to everyone.

“Everyone, you can see it clearer this way.”

“In this desert, not only is water scarce, but food is also scarce.”

“Don’t miss anything that can be eaten if it cannot harm our bodies.”

With that, Bell stuffed the lively scorpion into his mouth and chewed it with a pained expression.

The audience also quivered.

After chewing and swallowing the scorpion with difficulty, Bell did not forget to explain the taste of the scorpion to everyone.

“Not bad, crunchy, chicken taste.”

The moment he spoke, the audience could not sit still.

“F*ck, does the host have to have such a strong taste?”

Hearing Bell’s words, some of the audience had goosebumps.

Bell smiled.

“Alright, let’s not joke. To be honest, the taste is really not good. It feels like I just ate a mouthful of expired fried lobsters.”

Everyone laughed.

“Awesome!”

“I thought you would cook it first.”

Bell smiled.

“Of course roasted scorpion tastes better, but unfortunately, we don’t have the time or energy to do all that now.”

“Moreover, the temperature will increase again after the fire is started. I would have drunk all that water for nothing.”

After saying that, Bell stopped harping on this question.

“Alright, everyone, although the taste is not good, we did replenish some proteins.”

“There’s not much time left. The sun will set soon. After it does, this desert will become even more dangerous.”

“Moreover, such a dry climate can easily form sandstorms.”

“That would be troublesome.”

“If a sandstorm happens in this environment, everything will be buried inside.”

“Even large animals are no exception.”

“Therefore, if you want to live safely, you have to find a shelter for yourself before the sun sets.”

When the audience heard that the desert was actually so dangerous, they could not help but gasp.

After watching this live broadcast for so long, everyone understood the danger of this desert.

They no longer dared to look down on the desert like before.

Bell looked around for a suitable place to serve as a shelter while explaining the basic information about the desert to the audience.

“Although the desert is dry in the day, it can even reach a temperature of 40 °C.”

“But at night, it will change completely.”

“The night temperature might drop to 10 °C, or even lower.”

“The main reason is that the sand in this desert absorbs heat and dissipates heat too quickly.”

“The sand can absorb the heat continuously during the day, but at night, the sand will quickly turn cold without the heat.”

“Too much temperature difference will make it difficult to adapt.”

“Therefore, it’s important to find a shelter that can avoid sandstorms and maintain our body temperature.”

“Wait! Look there!”

Bell was explaining the foundation of desert survival to the audience.

Suddenly, Bell noticed a huge tree in the distance.

To be precise, it was a very tall desert poplar tree.

He had been looking around earlier and did not look into the distance.

Seeing this thing, Bell was instantly excited.

“This is good stuff.”

“Looks like we’re in luck.”

The audience couldn’t help but look in the direction Bell had pointed.

Looking at the thick poplar tree, everyone was puzzled. Why was Bell so excited to see this tree?

But soon, Bell explained.

“Everyone, don’t think that this is just a poplar tree. In this desert, to the survivalists, this is even more precious than treasure.”

“The roots of the desert poplar tree can reach up to six meters underground. This is also the main reason why these poplar trees can still grow so lushly in such a harsh environment.”

“Because even in this desert, it can still find enough water.”

“Moreover, there is a large amount of water stored in the branches of the poplar tree. I think we should be able to find a lot of water from such a thick poplar tree.”

“Most importantly, this poplar tree is tall and thick. We can sleep on its trunk at night. This way, we don’t have to worry about the sand being too cold at night.”

With this in mind, Bell walked quickly.

However, when he walked to the poplar tree, Bell was slightly disappointed.

“Unfortunately, this poplar tree is already dead.”

Bell shook his head regretfully.

Hearing Bell’s words, everyone sighed.

“If the poplar tree is dead, does it mean it will collapse easily? Then, it’s not safe to stay here, right?”

“Should we find another shelter?”

Some fans said to Bell.

But Bell still shook his head.

“No, although this poplar tree is dead, its roots are very deep, so even a dead poplar tree is still very strong.”

“We don’t have much time. The sun will set soon, so we can only choose to stay here tonight.”

“The only flaw is that we can’t rely on this poplar tree to obtain water.”

“But if a sandstorm comes, we can hug this poplar tree and ensure that we won’t be lost in the desert.”
