Survival In the World of Beasts

Chapter 5: Unsuspecting cicada

The first law of the jungle: danger is everywhere.

Remarks: You need to be cautious when applying the experience of the earth; think twice about everything; the truth is often more terrible; sometimes being completely ignorant is also a kind of happiness.

—Li Shizhao

The forest in the early morning is covered with a thick layer of fog. If viewed from the screen, regardless of the size of the screen, such a scene must be as beautiful as a fairy painting, but for Li Shizong, the fog is greatly reduced. Visibility, he does not have the keen senses of ordinary beasts, so he can only step lightly, be more vigilant, and erect his ears to judge the danger around him as much as possible.

Only in the middle of the night drank a little rain and a little fever, it was thanks to the good health of his physique that he did not fall directly after being in the rain in the middle of the night. Now he felt a little thirsty. Fortunately, rainwater accumulated on many large leaves, so he took off some leaves and rolled them into straws and sucked them carefully. He didn't dare to go anymore because of the water source. It is estimated that yesterday's Deinonychus should have discovered him when he was squatting in the small stream at night. When he saw the fire there was burning, he simply lay in ambush in the bushes. Thinking of the terrible vertical pupils he saw with a glimpse of lightning in the middle of the night, he is still standing upright, but the pupils of those eyes were dilated this morning, so dim and lackluster, he couldn't help being in awe of this cruel and **** world.

This is really a terrifying and **** lesson. The rules of hunting in the jungle, the role of hunting can be changed at any time, and an accident is a dead end. It is not easy to live.

But for Li Shizhao, this lesson is very meaningful. Objectively speaking, the life danger encountered this time is worthwhile, although it is not his subjective willingness. At least he learned the first rule of the jungle: danger is everywhere.

Analyzing further, he should be able to harvest a lot of other things. Sitting on the tree, he brushed the floor while recording and thinking.

First, although he observed the diversity and size of the species here yesterday, his original understanding of the lethality of predators was too empty and far from enough. Last night’s experience made him earnestly evaluate the danger and have a clear understanding of his own strength. The huge gap between the two cannot be made up by his efforts and the wisdom of the tools at hand. At least he needs time. To adapt and accumulate, he needs to ensure his own survival in this process.

Second, the place where he camped yesterday absolutely followed the wild survival guide, but there is no survival guide on Earth that will tell you how to survive when you cross into the wild jungle of the alien. Therefore, he suffered a moment of life and death yesterday. The ecology here is similar to the earth, but there are more differences. He needs to calm down to carefully explore and explore, and to ensure that this process will not kill his life. Then, find out a way of survival that suits you. Just like so many lives here, they can be survive, but it doesn't make sense that Li Shizhen can't!

Third, it is also a huge doubt. According to the rules of the jungle on Earth, generally speaking, a territory should have only one top predator, the so-called territory owner, who will not be hunted by other creatures at the top of the food chain. Although the ecological environment is different, such basic guidelines should be consistent. So, what was it that ate the injured Deinonychus yesterday? A is the other two Deinonychus, and B is another species. This answer is very important for analyzing apical predators.

If the answer is A, then based on the characteristics of this creature, their individual lethality is already very powerful. Think about it. The powerful and sharp serrated teeth, the powerful and sharp front paws, and the strong and powerful hind legs make them jump. Extremely strong and very fast. The thick tail is flexible and powerful, which can help steer in the air to maintain balance. This creature has evolved to be very balanced and perfect. It has both speed, flexibility and lethality. At the level of most mammals on the earth, It is really unlikely to escape their hunting; from the perspective of the ethnic group, they already have several very important hunting skills, using the protection color and night to choose the best incubation location, and cleverly waiting for the rain to extinguish the fire. The attack was launched at the best moment, and they were able to use simple calls to echo each other, what a terrible group hunting! If they cooperate more closely, and if a few choose to attack at that moment at the same time, Li Zhizhen will definitely not survive the moment of climbing the tree. If they eat their injured companions, then it makes sense for groups hunting in groups. It is very difficult for injured individuals to survive. For humans, it is too cruel and unacceptable to kill injured individuals and eat their bodies. However, in nature, this is a means of survival of the fittest to ensure the continuity of the race. Many races do Have this habit. So it seems very possible that such a strong race that has kept no individual dragged down will become the masters of this land. Then you need to pay more attention to their movements and avoid their predation directions.

If the answer is B, then this completely unknown creature is terrible. In front of such a powerful group of three predators, it not only defeated them, but also completely killed the injured one, and could stay calmly and picky eating good parts of the corpse. This kind of strength is so powerful that Li Shizhao has no way to resemble him. If he encounters him, he will not be lucky enough to escape. Even more frightening, he had no idea whether this unknown creature had been lurking there from the beginning. If it is, then its target is not Li Zhizhen from the beginning, but the group of Deinonychus! And it fully understood their predatory characteristics, and calmly lurked there early in the morning. It watched how they observed their prey, how they scattered and lay ambush, how they rushed out of the attack while it was raining, and how they were injured by that fragile prey—and When they wanted to continue hunting and they were all exposed, it attacked, snapped the injured person’s neck with one bite, and slapped the rescued one on the trunk, then turned around to clean up the remaining one, and finally took them all. Defeated, in the stormy night, like an elegant king, ate the best parts of the food, perhaps even licking the blood that was accidentally stained on the hair, Shi Shiran took advantage of the storm. Step away.

Li Shizhao, who had completed the brain replenishment process, was completely stunned, even though the major of the golden oil he studied was completely fake. Engineering, I can’t get more from the remaining traces of last night, but the big tree that only six or seven people can hug last night was shaken for a long time by a severe impact. Those corpses that were eaten critically were broken by that bite. Clean and neat cervical spine, is everything about the **** fit? ! If those Deinonychus ate them, how could there be so many parts left? ! He just said something was wrong. Would a race that is so frugal that it wants to eat the corpses of its compatriots still be so picky eaters? ! He should have thought of it long ago!

If the pair of vertical pupils that he saw in the middle of the night made him scared, the invisible eyes in the dark made him frighten!

Think about it, /Thriller footage replay/He had a painful afternoon to draw water and set up a tent to start a fire yesterday. There was a creature that was so terrifying that could snap the Deinonychus neck at any time (the font was enlarged and enlarged and kept replaying in my mind) watching? Or earlier, he was noticed by the jungle king when he climbed a tree from a distance to look at the continent. It quietly trailed behind him and formulated such a trap that he used as the bait and was completely unaware of the bait! How blessed is ignorance, look at yesterday, although he was at a loss and worked hard, but he didn't have to feel so horrified and dull to know. Right now, his whole body is cold. If he reacted slowly yesterday, maybe that terrible creature would wait until the three Deinonychus happy share his body, and rush out when the vigilance drops to a minimum. , And just close the script of "The mantis catches the cicada, the oriole is behind", okay? !

Poke the notebook fiercely, and Li Shizhen fully, very, fully understands why his calm beginning of analyzing information and rational thinking will eventually turn into an uncomfortable ending. He deeply felt that as a human being, he felt that the status of the spirit of all things had been fiercely molested and provoked. Yesterday morning, he was still living in a civilized society, a high-tech palace built entirely by human wisdom, a proud man of heaven, and a bright future. However, as soon as he came to this continent at noon yesterday, he was never seen from start to finish. A wild beast with a hair as a bait skewered on a hook has encountered the most serious threat to life in twenty years of life. The struggle between life and death is only to complete the beast's picky meal. Go to the nuns! He still can't calm down how to break! The point is that his IQ didn’t analyze what happened from beginning to end until he took out a notepad this morning and recalled it carefully. As a human individual, especially an individual who is implicitly proud of his IQ, he also has his own. I feel like I was broken by someone playing with it!

Inhale, exhale, inhale, exhale... Calm... You must calm down, Li Shizhen!

If you think about it, the individual strength can defeat the three Deinonychus, and the trap can be set to fully play into the human beings with an IQ of 170+. Can it be simply called a beast? I was originally not used to survival in the jungle, and even blackened the eyes of the jungle. This anger was unreasonable. After all, I still can't let go of the so-called superiority of being a human being. What is superior? This is not the earth at all, nor is it a civilized society that has been dominating the earth for thousands of years. There is no accumulation of time, no geographical advantage, so face everything soberly. Objectively speaking, this jungle should be its kingdom. He is an outsider in this kingdom, a fragile prey, at the bottom of the food chain. If he directly faces a creature with such terrible intelligence and powerful strength, he has no chance to escape. Yesterday he was just used as bait, and he was not eaten. Fate is too big, this kind of luck can't always be there. Of course, he gritted his teeth and thought that he would never thank the beast that played with him from start to finish because of this "lucky". It's just that unprovoked complaints would only Disturbance is not conducive to everything in front of you. Or more directly, without the strength, there is no right to complain. Calmly summarize the information and formulate a strategy is what you should do.

After recording and analyzing all the information in the notebook, Li Shizheng barely clarified his current strategy: First, we must carefully preserve our lives, ensure adequate food and water, and a safe temporary residence to ensure safety and heating at night. The most important thing is the weapon. If the wooden stick hadn't been temporarily added with the spearhead of the stone chip yesterday, he would have died into pieces. In a word, in this environment, it is easy to use, regardless of how primitive it is. One's own reflexes and sensory training must also be consciously strengthened.

Secondly, collect as much information as possible on the premise of preserving life, including all kinds of climatic, topographic, biological, and available materials. Especially with regard to that completely unknown beast, at least you must figure out the range of the opponent's haunt, and avoid its sharpness if the strength is not enough! As for how to avoid it, my deadly clumsy senses will definitely not be able to detect the presence of the other party, but, hum, let's just wait and see!

Li Zhitong snapped his notepad, a full backpack, and neatly descended the tree down the vines. His handsome back was not like looking for food but going to the show. It was an amazing performance about survival and competition, fighting wits and fighting bravely. .
