Survive in the Wilderness with Celebrities

Chapter 216 Baguazhang Proficiency +1 (Subscription Request)

Meng Chao also found it a bit outrageous that red fire ants appeared in the desert.

The venom glands of most red fire ants contain large amounts of formic acid, which can cause severe pain when they bite people, and they are quite aggressive.

Not only is it highly toxic, it is also highly aggressive. It will actively attack crops, humans and livestock, bite through street light wires and destroy the power supply system, seriously endangering local agricultural and forestry production, human health, public safety and the ecological environment.

Every year, people die from the stings of red fire ants.

Logically speaking, they are not adapted to the desert environment and should not appear in the desert.

"Who would have thought that tiny ants could cause severe allergies in people." Zhang Jin couldn't help but sigh.

He thought that some people would be forced to leave because of illness or injury, and some would leave because they couldn't bear the hardship.

But I never thought that someone would be forced out because of a tiny ant.

"So you have to be extra careful in the wilderness. You can't let your guard down just because the other party is a small animal." Meng Chao said seriously.

"But how can we prevent those red fire ants if we sleep?" Liu Yan frowned and looked at Meng Chao worriedly.

She wanted to know if Meng Chao had any solution.

"Our mosquito repellent can effectively repel ants. Liu Shishi should not have sprayed it."

"Also, you can spread some wood ash around the camp, which can also have a certain effect."

"Ants are mainly afraid of acidic substances. If conditions permit, you can spray white vinegar around the campsite in the wilderness."

There is a small bottle of white vinegar for seasoning, so you can use it if you want.

"We may not have red fire ants here. These ants are not suitable for living in the desert. Most likely, they are only found in that oasis and are unlikely to spread outward."

As soon as Meng Chao finished speaking, An Yifei nodded and said, "It seems that I really didn't see any ants."

"That's good. I was worried that there might be red fire ants here too." Liu Yan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

After all, she had just arrived and didn't want to be eliminated so early.

"Then how do we keep watch at night?" Zhang Jin looked at Meng Chao.

Accidents happened one after another at night, and Zhang Jin felt it was necessary to keep watch.

"One person can keep watch for one night until five o'clock. If you want to travel, you have to go earlier. Now that we have camels, the night watchers can ride camels during the day, which can be considered a kind of rest."

"The night watchman is responsible for boiling water and putting it into plastic bags."

Because of the backpack, Meng Chao doesn't have to worry about the plastic bag bursting due to too much water.

Just be careful not to get punctured by sharp objects.

There is actually a way to deal with the lack of a backpack. You can use a sleeping bag and wrap it around a plastic bag to provide protection.

In the wilderness, we must make good use of the limited resources at hand and make them play the most valuable role.

No one had any objection to Meng Chao's arrangement, so they finally adopted the old method.

"Okay, everyone go to bed, and leave the night watch to me." As he said that, Zhang Jin put on his night vision goggles and prepared to fetch some water to boil.

"How are we going to sleep with two sleeping bags?" Lee Ji-eun glanced at Meng Chao.

"Just give me the headscarf and I'll use it as a blanket."

"I'm so fat that no one can squeeze into the same sleeping bag with me." As he said that, Meng Chao spread the date palm leaves on the ground.

"The production crew is really something. They didn't even give us an extra sleeping bag." An Yifei complained.

"That's right, the program crew just wants us to suffer." Lee Ji-eun looked at Meng Chao with a distressed face.

She was very willing to share a sleeping bag with Meng Chao, but it was not convenient for her to say it out loud.

Despite all the complaints, everyone still took off their headscarves and handed them to Meng Chao.

"Everyone, hurry up and go to sleep. We need to get up early tomorrow to travel." After saying that, Meng Chao lay down beside the campfire and went to sleep. He turned sideways so that his entire back could be warmed by the high temperature of the campfire, ensuring that he would not get hypothermia at night.

Not long after lying down, Meng Chao fell asleep.

This was his first sleep in the desert, and he slept quite soundly.

Meng Chao woke up at around four in the morning.

After Meng Chao made some noise, Zhang Jin immediately looked at him.

"Good morning!" Meng Chao took the initiative to greet.

"It's still early. Why don't you sleep a little longer? I'll call you when the time comes." As he said this, Zhang Jin yawned uncontrollably.

"I've had enough sleep, let me get up and move around." With that, Meng Chao stood up and prepared to practice Vajra Kung Fu.

Seeing Meng Chao practicing Vajra Gong, Zhang Jin also became interested.

However, this was not what he practiced. He felt that this kind of health-preserving exercise was meaningless.

So he started practicing Baguazhang, a boxing technique he had practiced for many years. In recent years, he would practice Baguazhang and Tai Chi sword every morning.

Back then, he won martial arts championships in Chen-style Tai Chi and Tai Chi sword, and was also proficient in spearmanship and drunken swordsmanship.

After Meng Chao finished his training, he saw Zhang Jin was still boxing, so he walked over and asked.

"What are you practicing?"

Zhang Jin did not stop his movements, but continued: "Baguazhang, if you want to learn it, I can teach you. You are quite talented in this area."

He had seen Ma Dongxi teaching Meng Chao free fighting before, and Meng Chao got the hang of it very quickly.

So, he wanted to see if it was the same when Meng Chao learned his Baguazhang.

What he is practicing now is not routines for performance, but real kung fu.

If you master this skill, you can kill people.

Of course, now you can’t use Kung Fu to fight people, you can only use it to strengthen your body.

"I want to learn." Meng Chao said bluntly.

"Okay, then I'll teach you." Having said that, Zhang Jinxian finished his training.

Then he started teaching from the beginning.

Meng Chao’s learning ability is indeed much stronger now, especially when it comes to learning this kind of kung fu.

In less than twenty minutes, Meng Chao had performed all the moves of Baguazhang.

[Baguazhang proficiency +1]
"Yes, you are indeed very talented. You can do the moves after just one try."

"Just knowing the movements is not enough. I will teach you how to do it when I have time." Zhang Jin said with some reluctance.

The time has come and everyone has gotten up. It's time to pack up and set off.

"Okay, you teach me in the evening." Meng Chao said with great anticipation.

This Baguazhang is quite good, especially the footwork, which Meng Chao likes very much.

By mastering more martial arts, you can become stronger and have sharper reactions.

An Yifei and the others had already packed up their things. Everyone took out the naan they were given last night and started eating breakfast.

There is also a pot of warm water in the pot, which can be used to add some water to everyone's kettle, ensuring that everyone's kettle is full when you set out.

Today’s destination is a bit far away, and we may not be able to get there before dark.
