Chapter 55: Fans Increase
Hearing that the poplar tree could still be used as a shelter, the fans heaved a sigh of relief for Bell.
Bell walked around the poplar tree.
He measured the height and thickness of this poplar tree.
“This poplar tree shouldn’t be young. Its diameter is about 1.5 meters, and its trunk is about two meters tall.”
Climbing up the tree trunk, Bell found that there was actually a hole at the top, forming a pit.
“Not bad. I should be able to sleep more comfortably here tonight.”
Because Bell was young and small, this hole was just enough for him to stay in.
From afar, it looked like a bird’s nest on the dry tree.
After dealing with the matters about the shelter, Bell did not stay idle.
After getting off the tree, he dug another deep pit beside the tree.
The diameter and depth were about half a meter.
Then, he took off the lid of the water canteen and repeated his actions at noon.
Bell explained with a smile.
“I believe everyone has already guessed that what I need to do now is still to get water. Although it looks no different from what we did in the afternoon, the principle is actually different.”
“At noon, we mainly rely on the high temperature of the sand to evaporate the water in the sand and form distilled water.”
“What we need to do now is to use the temperature difference at night.”
“Because the temperature in this desert will drop drastically at night, the water in the sandpit will condense into water droplets again due to the cold air.”
“Let’s have a good rest. We should be able to drink a mouthful of water when we wake up.”
Bell sat on the tree trunk and interacted with the audience.
“Our luck is not bad. Although this poplar tree is dried up, it can provide us with good shelter.”
“If you really encounter such a situation one day, the best suggestion I have for you is to find a place to rest during the day and think of a way to travel at night.”
“This can save as much energy as possible.”
“What I need to do now is to rest for a while like I said. We can think of a way to continue our journey after midnight.”
“By the way, please use your free hearts if you have them. Now, everyone, let’s rest for a while.”
After chatting for a while, and having been busy for the entire day, Bell felt exhausted.
Soon, he fell asleep.
The desert at night was terrifyingly silent. Occasionally, there would be a rustling sound. It was unknown if it was the sound of the wind or some other creature.
The night passed peacefully, and Bell slept soundly.
He only woke up after midnight.
He stood on the tree and looked around. After realizing that there was no danger around, he climbed down from the tree.
Because there were no tall buildings blocking the moonlight, the desert looked especially clear.
This provided Bell with some convenience.
With Bell waking up, a large number of fans quickly entered the live-stream.
It was already late at night, and many of the other contestants had already begun to rest. Bell had used this time difference to attract many fans again.
After this short day, Bell’s followers increased by nearly 500,000.
He nodded in satisfaction.
At this rate, it would not be difficult to reach 10 million followers in three months.
Jumping down from the tree trunk, Bell dug out the water canteen.
However, compared to the previous time, there was too little water.
“Sigh, it’s less than a centimeter filled. It’s really not enough, but I can’t waste it.”
Bell smiled and drank the water.
“We don’t have any water left. The temperature is just right. We have to hurry and find another water source to replenish our energy.”
“To be honest, I’m a little thirsty and hungry.”
“I only ate a scorpion for the entire day. You have to know that I am still growing.”
Bell joked to ease the atmosphere in the live-stream.
At the same time, he was adjusting his mentality.
The audience couldn’t help but chuckle when they heard Bell’s words, but their hearts ached.
“Host, you’ve worked hard.”
Bell did not respond.
“Alright, let’s not waste anymore time. Let’s hurry and see if we can find anything to eat. Many creatures in the desert choose to move at night. Maybe we can encounter some.”
Bell did not delay. He decided on a direction and began to search for the riverbed.
When a person stepped on the loose sand at night, the movement was subtle.
The surroundings were so quiet that it made one nervous.
However, at this moment, Bell’s eyes focused and his footsteps slowed.
“Everyone, be quiet. I think we found something.”
On the screen, Bell looked at the sand dune not far away. On the sand that was illuminated by the moonlight, something seemed to be moving underneath, shaking the upper layer of sand.
If not for the moonlight shining on this area, Bell would have difficulty discovering it.
After carefully observing the vibration pattern, Bell bent down and jumped out like a cheetah in the shadows, stabbing his hand into the sand.
Then, because of the imbalance, he rolled down from the sand dune.
Bell’s actions were very fast. Even the audience was shocked.
By the time everyone came to their senses, they saw that Bell had already stood up with a half-meter-long snake in his hand.
Bell moved the creature to the camera and gave everyone a closer look.
“Everyone, look at this. It’s a sand boa.”
“Everyone, don’t be fooled by its name. Although it is a boa, this guy is actually very small. The largest sand boa is at most around a meter long.”
“They usually hide under the sand and ambush insects and rats at night, but its luck is not good today. It is my food now.”
Before anyone could react, Bell took out his dagger and cut off the head of the sand boa.
Seeing Bell’s proficiency, the audience swallowed.
“Why do I feel like the hardcore eating show is going to appear again?”
