From wilderness to palace

Chapter 14 Building a Shelter
Before entering the mountain, Liu Yaozu did not forget the chickens he kept at home.After this period of feeding, the [-] local native chickens also grew up healthy and lively.If he spends the night in the mountains, no one will feed the chickens.

Fortunately, with the advanced technology nowadays, Liu Yaozu bought a timer online in advance.You only need to put the food in advance, and when the chicks arrive at the fixed eating time, the timer will be turned on immediately to release the food that was placed in advance.

As for driving the chickens back to the chicken coop, the owner doesn't need to worry about it at all.These days, every household in rural areas raises chickens. When the chickens are cooked, they know how to return to the chicken coop at night, without having to look for them or chase them away.

In order to avoid the worries of the villagers, Liu Yaozu greeted his neighbor Fifth Uncle Liu Shouyi in advance, saying that he would go out to play for two days.Liu Shouyi didn't think too much about it, but felt that at Liu Yaozu's age, it seemed abnormal for him to stay at home every day.

"Okay, is there anything at home that needs to be taken care of? I'll take care of it when the time comes."

"Thank you Uncle Wu, there is nothing to look at. Except for the chickens I bought earlier, I set a timer and I will feed the chickens when the time comes. There is nothing else to take care of at home, as long as no one pries them Just go through the door."

"That's not the case! In our village, there are not many outsiders coming all year round."

Liu Shouyi, who said this, had no idea that Liu Yaozu was not going on a trip, but decided to go camping outdoors in the mountains.If he were to know, he would definitely feel that Liu Yaozu's brain was burned out and he couldn't live in a good home but wanted to live in the wilderness.

After explaining these things and packing his backpack in advance, Liu Yaozu started heading into the mountains early in the morning.It was just dawn and no one was getting up in the village, so naturally he couldn't be seen leaving.

When they returned safely, even if Liu Shouyi and the others complained, they probably wouldn't say much.In the early stage, Liu Yaozu didn't want the villagers to worry too much, so he had to adopt this method.After more experience in the future, maybe the villagers will not say anything.

There is a satellite phone, if there is something urgent, or the villagers who care about Liu Yaozu, worry about what happened to him in the mountains, just make a phone call and contact them.Even if there are no relatives or hang-ups, the neighbors in the village are also fellow villagers!

Along the road that the villagers usually go into the mountain, Liu Yaozu strode into the mountain without looking back, carrying an outdoor backpack weighing about [-] kilograms.Not long after, he walked into the forest where there were no mountain roads and he needed to choose his own path.

Fortunately, the forest is relatively close to the village, because people go into the mountains all the year round, and if there are too many people, there will naturally be some roads to walk.Along these mountain roads that are not roads, Liu Yaozu began to climb over the mountains until the sun was high in the sky.

Before going out, I just had something to eat, and then I kept on my way into the mountain, and I didn't even have many opportunities to stop to enjoy the scenery.While burying his head on the road, Liu Yaozu at least did not forget to let him carry a camera to take pictures of the scenery along the way.

With these videos, he can also tell netizens in the post-editing that he buried himself in the mountain road all morning, instead of stealing and cheating, he directly camped in the mountains not far from the village.The place where I am now is a little far away from the village.

Although it has not reached a day's journey, Liu Yaozu feels that the distance is about the same.Usually when the villagers go into the mountains, why would they bury their heads in their way like him?Many villagers go to the mountains to collect mountain goods, and they have to search along the way!

Standing on the top of the mountain, Liu Yaozu took a closer look and said, "Go to the mountain with long pine trees ahead, and camp there tonight. After a month or two, some villagers may come here to pick up pine mushrooms or Pine mushrooms!"

As for breaking or picking up pine cones, Liu Yaozu felt that even if there were, it would not be an easy task to recite them.Unless the villagers go into the mountains, there is a shortcut he doesn't know.Otherwise, this road is really difficult to walk.

For the first time outdoor camping, Liu Yaozu paid more attention to safety and study.Before coming here, he deliberately spent tens of thousands of recognition points to upgrade the skill of outdoor explorer directly from Xiaobai to the stage of junior explorer.

As far as Liu Yaozu's accumulated recognition value is concerned, spending tens of thousands of dollars at a time is considered a big deal.Integrating the experience points given by the system, Liu Yaozu has a certain amount of experience in outdoor camping or adventure.

If Liu Yaozu wants to continue to be promoted to an intermediate explorer, then Liu Yaozu needs to spend at least [-] to start.In this case, Liu Yaozu felt that it would be more economical to gain some experience points at the primary stage and then upgrade to the intermediate stage.

Furthermore, he also needs to shoot videos and upload them while camping outdoors.As a junior explorer, seeing that he is so well prepared, others may say that he has done enough preparation work, rather than becoming a master right away.

Watching that kind of video, others will only think that maybe Liu Yaozu is just editing the video, not everything is done by him himself.How can an ordinary person, who has never been involved in outdoor knowledge, become a master in one step?
Step by step is the kingly way!

The scorching sun continued to travel a distance in the forest, but fortunately, the towering tree above him could shield Liu Yaozu from the sun.If he really wanted to drive under the sun, Liu Yaozu might fall down on the road before long.

"Now that the temperature is high, in order to avoid heat stroke, we should really find a place to camp and rest as soon as possible."

In a place with tall trees and dense forests, it feels quite shady to be in it.But if he really had to walk some mountain roads with low vegetation and be exposed to the sun above his head, Liu Yaozu was really worried about the possibility of heatstroke.It's really heatstroke, so how can we build a shelter later?
Walking to the previously selected pine forest, looking at this pine forest, although there are miscellaneous trees and shrubs, it does not look dense.Considering the need to light a fire at night, Liu Yaozu naturally did not dare to camp and build a shelter in a place with many trees.

Walking along the forest for a while, interrupting the scenery in the forest from time to time, Liu Yaozu quickly found a suitable location for building a shelter.Carrying a backpack that felt heavier and heavier, I finally arrived at the selected shelter location.

Although there are huge pine trees around, there is a small rocky cliff where Liu Yaozu stepped.In Liu Yaozu's view, the stone cliff is straight and has a drop, just filling the supporting wall of the shelter.

And after looking around, Liu Yaozu found that there were dead trees and miscellaneous trees nearby, and it should be convenient to collect materials.Moreover, the top of the stone cliff is very open, so if you take wind protection measures, you don't have to worry about igniting forest fires.

"That's it! First collect some stones to make a stove, and first sacrifice the five internal organs that started the rebellion. After eating enough, you will have more energy to work. Before dawn, build a shelter. With my craftsmanship, it shouldn't be a problem." question."

Place the backpack on a slightly flat boulder, and take out a multifunctional military shovel purchased online from the edge of the backpack.Borrowing this shovel, Liu Yaozu started to clean it up along the bottom of the cliff.

The cleared rocks are thrown directly to the side to prepare for stacking the stove.After cleaning and leveling the bottom of the stone cliff, Liu Yaozu put down his engineering shovel and started building the stove, and cleaned up or cleaned out all the dead branches and rotten leaves around the stove.

Looking at the stove that was simply piled up, he opened his backpack and took out a non-stick pan the size of a dish from inside. He placed it on the stove and made gestures. After confirming that there was nothing wrong, Liu Yaozu also began to pile up the collected firewood in the stove.

Unlike other outdoor survival experts who often drill wood to make fire, Liu Yaozu did not make it more difficult for himself. Instead, he used magnesium rods purchased online.With a single pull, sparks immediately ignite the specially prepared kindling.

Looking at the burning fire on the stove, Liu Yaozu expressed a little regret: "It may be easier to pack firewood and food outdoors. In this mountain, what is really lacking may be the essential drinking water for everyone. .”

On the way into the mountain, Liu Yaozu really didn't see a few areas where fresh water can be filled.Although there are small streams in the mountains, it is really not easy to find a mountain with small streams in the hinterland of the real mountains!
