Chapter 269 My Hand Speed of Being Single for 20 Years
"Ahem... Thank you for your concern. I really didn't expect that my premonition yesterday came true. We really encountered a sandstorm today. Is this good luck or bad luck?"
"Fortunately, the sandstorm we saw is not the most powerful one, but according to my judgment, it is only an intermission period now, and there should be more later, so we must be fully prepared."
Jia Long felt uncomfortable and itchy in her throat. She always wanted to cough up phlegm, but couldn't.
She took off the peaked cap she was wearing on her head, and simply tied the cap rope to the back of her head, and the cap became a simple mask.
"I probably choked too much dust into my lungs. This kind of inhaled particles is very harmful to the human body. Now I feel tight in my chest, and my throat and nose are dry."
"In this situation, I should drink more water to see if I can dissolve the gravel in my mouth and esophagus, but the problem is that there is no water at all now."
Jia Long sighed bitterly.
To her, the wind and sand just now were average. The most important thing was the feeling of the sand and gravel pouring into the nostrils and mouth all the time.
At one point, she thought she was about to stop breathing.
Now that she managed to survive, she immediately fell into a waterless situation.
"I really can't go today. With the continuous sandstorm, I can only spend the night in this bush."
The sky was still full of wind and sand, and Jia Long didn't know if the sandstorm would become bigger later, so it was very unwise to leave such a good bunker as the oasis.
So she decided to wait here until the sandstorm stopped completely.
"The current situation is very bad. Even if there is a bunker, there is still a lot of sand and dust, and if the sandstorm lasts for a day or two, the body will not be able to hold on."
"So I'm going to make a shelter that can help me get through this kind of difficulty."
If there is no other way, Jia Long is unwilling to destroy the trees in this oasis, but now he can't think of it.
So she got up and found herself under the bushes where she hid the bucket first.
Fortunately, the hiding place is good, the plastic bucket is not too messy, it's just covered with a shallow layer of gravel.
Take out a piece of jerky wrapped in grass leaves, peel off a piece with a knife, and throw it into your mouth.
"The taste is still good, very fragrant. Well, now I have added some energy, and I'm going to start working."
Jia Long began to observe the low shrubs in the oasis.
The drone flew up, watching her operate from behind Jia Long.
"There is still a lot of wind and sand in the sky now, but fortunately, this level of sand and dust doesn't hinder my work much."
"Since there may be a strong sandstorm coming later, our new shelter must be dust-proof as much as possible. It just so happens that this oasis has a good wood, so I can do my best."
Jia Long moved quickly.
In this bush, apart from the date palm tree, there is a small patch of thirst-resistant trees of different heights. Jia Long's main target is one of them.
"This is a Tamarix tree, a plant of the family Tamarix, which is resistant to thirst and drought and has strong vitality."
"It is not only a very common green plant in the Rub Khali Desert, but also a common urban green plant in many parts of our country."
"Let's see if its leaf stems are very lush, and there are many leaves, and the density between the leaves is not low, so it is very suitable for dust prevention. Therefore, it is very good to use it as the main building material for our new shelter."
"And it also has a certain cough medicine effect. It's a pity that I don't have water in my hand, otherwise I must use it to cook herbal juice to help me cure my current cough."
Jia Long identified a three-meter-tall tree with luxuriant foliage and soft branches, which was quite aesthetic.
Many netizens know this tree.
Because in Longxia, many places use this small tree named Tamarix for greening.
Jia Long picked up a slap-big rock from the ground, and after trying it out, it felt quite easy.
Then she used it as a hammer, in a smashing way,
Severely slash the Tamarix in front of him with the small straight knife of the system.
Because time is running short, her speed is relatively fast.
"666, with such a fast hand speed, Master Long is going to break through the sky."
"Haha, I, Long, who has been single for twenty years, are naturally fast."
The audience was shocked by the speed of his hand.
While coughing, Jia Long skillfully chopped down the tamarisk tree that had lived in the desert for an unknown amount of time.
Then use the blade to cut it into several sections with a maximum length of two meters and a maximum of one meter with branches and leaves.
Especially the weeping willow leaves on it, she tried not to damage it, because this is the next very important part of the wind and sand.
After finishing these operations, it took more than half an hour.
Then, Jia Long carried them to the tallest date palm tree.
I saw that this tall jujube tree swayed to a certain extent in the long wind and sand, but compared with other shrubs, the swaying range was relatively small, and it remained motionless.
"We directly use this date palm trunk as the main pole of the shelter, because there is nothing more reliable in this bush."
She quickly put the felled tamarisk branches on the trunk of the date palm one by one in the form of a frame.
Because of the influence of wind and sand, Jia Long's operation was not fast.
But she is not in a hurry, but builds step by step, little by little.
"Because the materials are limited, the place we can build is not big. The main purpose is to cover the upper body from the wind and sand, and the lower body doesn't matter."
The shelter set up by Jia Long is not big and not high, so you can only enter it with your waist down.
Moreover, she used the cross fixing method, and the vertical and horizontal bars were sandwiched to build the building, which was more reliable and prevented the shelter from easily collapsing due to wind and sand.
Then take the 'universal' belt, use it to connect the branches of the shelter to the key difficult point connecting the trunk of the date palm tree, wrap it around twice with force, and then tie it tightly.
Such an ultra-simple, but windproof shelter was built.
Jia Long smiled brightly.
She pushed the broken plastic bucket into the shelter, and people followed suit.
Although the calves were still exposed to the outside world, even if there were still some gaps and loopholes after the upper body was hidden in the shelter, the howling wind from the outside world instantly became unable to affect her.
"Finish."
"But it's getting dark, too."
In the barrage of the drone, the audience swiped a string of '666' to the fast card machine.
Since the appearance of the sandstorm, the number of people online in the live broadcast room has remained high, and it is even increasing.
"90,000 online? Almost 100,000."
Jia Long looked at the number of online viewers, and it was about to reach 100,000.
Although she was in a sandstorm environment where her life was hanging by a thread, she was still slightly happy.
However, looking at some of the audience's discussions, in addition to praising her for her excellent production, or teasing her for being dirty, she also keenly noticed that there are some good ones in the barrage, talking about the signal problem of her drone.
