After a busy day, fatigue quickly sets in.
Lu Fan couldn't help but yawn.
In the live stream room.
A lot happened today.
"Thank you for your hard work, Lu Fan."
"Not only did we create a breeding ground for the seeds, but we also harvested new members."
"Lu Fan is truly amazing. He accomplished in one day what others couldn't do in several days."
Lu Fan tidied up the supplies and climbed onto his bed.
Suddenly he got up again and slapped Big Black.
"If you dare to eat the sheep, you're finished."
Big Black immediately looked away, revealing a dazed expression.
"Hahaha, Big Black is pretending to be stupid because he feels guilty."
"Big Black: Don't talk nonsense, or I'll sue you for defamation."
"What do you do when your child always has a craving for snacks in the middle of the night? Haha, just give them a good beating."
After giving a warning, Lu Fan went back to his room to sleep, and Dahei also crawled into its doghouse.
The next morning, after a quick wash, Lu Fan began preparing breakfast for himself and his three beasts.
As the number of people in the shelter increased, Lu Fan realized another problem.
That is, the original salt reserves were rapidly depleted and were already in critical condition.
This salt is no ordinary seasoning when surviving in the wilderness.
For Lu Fan, salt is key to maintaining normal bodily functions.
The hard work in the wilderness left him drenched in sweat every day, causing him to lose a large amount of salt from his body.
Without sufficient salt intake, the body will gradually weaken, leading to symptoms such as fatigue and dizziness, which will seriously affect subsequent survival activities.
Salt is equally indispensable for Big Horn and Big Black.
As a powerful assistant for carrying loads and transporting goods, the horned creature consumes a great deal of energy daily, and salt helps it maintain its strength.
Big Black is lively and active with a fast metabolism. Salt helps stabilize its nervous system and maintain good mobility.
As for sheep, high-quality goat milk production depends on sufficient salt intake.
A lack of salt will not only affect the milk production of sheep, but also greatly reduce the quality of goat milk.
This is undoubtedly a huge loss for Lu Fan, since goat milk is an important source of nutrition.
In addition, food preservation is a major problem in the wilderness.
Salt helps Lu Fan marinate meat and extend its shelf life for future needs.
After much deliberation, Lu Fan knew that if he wanted to survive in this wilderness for a long time, he had to replenish his salt supply as soon as possible.
Therefore, he resolutely decided to take Big Horn and Big Black to the salt mine he had discovered before and mine salt once again.
[Wilderness Survival Announcement]
Chinese contestant Lu Fan triggers a 10,000-fold return.
[Healthy Wild Rabbit*]
Seeing the big black dog carrying a fat wild rabbit in its mouth, Lu Fan couldn't help but nod.
It turned out that rescuing Big Black was the right choice. Putting aside everything else, it made obtaining prey much easier.
Even if Lu Fan is highly skilled, he can't compare to a fully grown wild wolf that has lived in the wild for many years.
"Well done, Big Black."
Lu Fan rubbed Dahei's head, and Dahei couldn't help but stick out its tongue.
After putting the rabbit into the large horn basket, Lu Fan continued on his way.
This time, no accidents occurred on the road, and they arrived at the salt mine they had discovered earlier without incident.
This salt mine looks like a huge white gemstone casually discarded by the earth, shimmering with tiny sparkles in the sunlight.
Upon arriving here, driven by their animal instincts, Big Horn and Big Black immediately went up to lick the rocks, absorbing the salt within.
"We need to collect more salt today. Since the sheep came, our salt consumption has increased significantly."
As Lu Fan spoke, he picked up his homemade iron pickaxe. The tool looked a bit rudimentary, but in Lu Fan's hands, it was like a professional mining machine.
Big Horn stood obediently to the side, occasionally rubbing its horn against the nearby stone, as if cheering Lu Fan on.
Big Black was as excited as a little madman, running around the salt mine, occasionally digging at the salt grains on the ground with its paws, having a great time.
Lu Fan began mining, hammering away at the salt mine with great enthusiasm.
White salt chunks peeled off the mountainside little by little, and soon a small pile formed.
"Haha, at this rate, we'll have enough salt to eat for a long time!" Lu Fan said proudly, wiping the sweat from his forehead.
But then, an accident happened. Overly excited, Big Black wasn't paying attention to its footing while running, and suddenly let out a "whoosh" as it fell into a crack hidden in the salt mine.
"Big Black!" Lu Fan shouted in terror, dropping his tools and running quickly to the crack.
Big Horn was also startled by this sudden change and hurriedly followed, letting out a worried cry.
The crack looked deep and dark, like the gaping maw of a giant beast; Lu Fan couldn't see the bottom at all.
"Big Black, how are you?" Lu Fan called out anxiously.
The sound echoed through the crack, but only the faint whimpers of the large black creature could be heard.
The live stream chat instantly exploded.
"My goodness, how could Big Black be so careless!"
"Quickly, think of a solution, Master Lu Fan!"
"This crack looks really deep. Will Big Black be in danger?"
"So we won't be in any danger, will we?"
Wang Tao and Zhao Hangjun were also staring intently at the screen.
Wang Tao said, "Teacher Zhao, what do you think we should do in this situation?"
Zhao Hangjun frowned, thought for a moment, and then said, "First, we need to determine if Dahei is injured, and then we'll figure out a way to rescue it."
This crack appears to have formed during an earthquake; we need to be careful of the surrounding rock structure to prevent secondary collapse.
Lu Fan took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.
He took out a rope from his backpack, which he had carefully woven from vines and was quite strong.
He tied one end of the rope to a huge rock next to him, and then slowly lowered the rope into the crevice.
"Big Black, grab the rope!" he shouted.
But all that could be heard from the crack was Big Black's frantic cries; there was no sign of him grabbing the rope.
"No, this crack is too dark. Dahei might not be able to see the rope," Lu Fan muttered to himself.
After thinking for a moment, Lu Fan had another idea.
He took one of the baskets off the horned creature, tied it with vines, and placed it into the wide crevice.
To carry more salt, Lu Fan brought two of the largest baskets this time, enough to hold Da Hei's entire body.
"Big Black, jump into the basket."
The viewers in the live stream held their breath, staring intently at the screen.
"Lu Fan is so clever. He used a basket, hoping that Dahei can understand what he means."
Just when everyone was anxious, Dahei seemed to finally understand Lu Fan's meaning and jumped into the basket.
Lu Fan felt a pull and was overjoyed: "Big Black, hold on, I'll pull you up!"
