Are You Telling An Eight-Year-Old To Survive In The Wilderness? Chapter 256 - Traps

Chapter 256: Traps

Closing the live-stream, Bell listened to the insects and birds in the rainforest and slowly closed his eyes.

Even after closing his eyes, his mind was still replaying the scene of him fighting to the death with the black caiman.

Although the matter was over, Bell’s nerves were still tense.

Bell gradually cald down.

Moreover, as he relaxed, the pain in his shoulder blade spread again.

The pain reminded Bell of the jaguar.

This was also Bell’s first ti fighting such a large hunter.

At the sa ti, it made him deeply realize the difference between him and these large beasts.

That night’s confrontation was really a mont of life and death.

If his opponent had been a larger African lion or Siberian tiger, he would probably have died.

The Siberian tiger appeared in Bell’s mind, and his heart palpitated.

He was still too weak.

Bell clenched his fists.

......

Thoughts filled his mind, but the exhaustion of the day quickly turned into sleepiness. It swept towards Bell and he finally fell asleep.

The next morning, Bell woke up in rainy weather.

The rain hit the palm leaves above his head, making crackling sounds.

Although the rainy morning was refreshing, it was a little cold.

Rubbing his sleepy eyes, Bell sat up.

He curled his lips after knowing that it was raining.

At the sa ti, he twitched his nose and revealed a disgusted expression.

In this rainforest, even the rain could not hide the sll of decay.

He opened the live-stream to relax his limbs. He did not forget to check the injury on the back of his neck.

After confirming that his wound did not worsen, Bell heaved a sigh of relief. To be precise, the recovery of the wound was quite ideal. The aloe vera was indeed very effective. It could even be said to have exceeded his expectations.

“Alright, a new day has begun.

Today is another rainy day. To be honest, encountering such weather often makes a little irritated.

But it’s necessary to hurry. ”

Bell curled his lips and carried his backpack. Then, he perked up and said.

“Let’s see if there are any gains from the traps yesterday.

I’m a little hungry. I need breakfast to replenish my energy. ”

After walking for a while in the rain, Bell quickly arrived at his first trap.

The trap was intact and had no traces of being moved. Bell shook his head in disappointnt.

“Looks like no prey passed by here.”

Then, Bell walked to the second trap he had made.

Bell felt a little helpless.

“Although I had already expected this outco, I’m still a little disappointed.

It is probably the sa as buying a lottery.

The buyers naturally hoped to win.

But this thing itself relies on luck. You cannot guarantee that it will work.

Therefore, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointnt.

We have to remain calm. After all, survival can’t end here. Don’t let so small setbacks affect your condition.”

While talking, Bell walked and soon arrived at the third trap.

Before he could approach, Bell noticed that his trap seed to have been triggered.

The thick stone slab was already firmly covered in soil.

Seeing this, Bell quickly walked forward.

The stone slab he had found earlier was covered tightly on the ground.

Beside the stone slab was so soil that had been dug out.

Seeing this, Bell had a bad feeling.

After lifting the stone slab, there was no prey below.

Bell was helpless.

He pointed at the claw marks in the hole.

“Looks like this stone trap was triggered. So animal must have been caught by the trap last night, but this guy seems to be very good at digging holes.”

“Alright, I admit that we failed again.”

“As far as I know, there are no pangolins in South Arica, but there are animals similar to them.

To be able to dig a hole and escape after being hit by a stone slab weighing more than ten kilograms, if I’m not wrong, it should be armadillos . ”

“Sotis, people who don’t know them will think that the armadillo and the pangolin are the sa thing, but in fact, they are two completely different species. They just have so similarities.

Firstly, they both have thick and solid armor, and they dig very quickly.

In the wilderness, the three giants in digging should be pangolin, armadillo, and aardvark.

Their survival skills and hunting skills mostly rely on this exquisite digging technique.

Armadillo can dig a ter-deep tunnel in a minute.

Therefore, it’s clearly not realistic to trap it with our trap. ”

The three traps failed.

Bell had no choice but to continue moving.

He could only look forward to seeing if he could find anything to eat on the way.

The rain was still falling.

This continuous drizzle really wore down one’s will.

Moreover, for a survivalist, this rain blocked their vision.

At the sa ti, it covered the sound of the beasts’ footsteps in the rain.

This was not a good thing for Bell.

Wiping the rain from his face, Bell looked at the rapid stream in front of him and revealed a helpless expression.

In the past, this stream would be less than half a ter long.

But because of the rainy season, the endless rain made the stream wider and faster.

The stream in front of Bell was ten ters wide. Although the water was not deep, about half the height of a person, if anyone dared to walk in the rapid water, the outco would be tragic.

Not to ntion a person, even a small car would be washed away in this water.

“We only have two choices now. The first is to directly cross this stream.

The second is to move around it.

The forr is very dangerous because this rapid stream will wash away. If I accidentally hit a rock, I will probably die here.
