Chapter 37 Disaster Strikes Suddenly!
Chapter 37 Disaster Strikes Suddenly!
"Hello everyone, I've made all the necessary preparations for today. I plan to go out and take a look around, compare the differences between a rainstorm and a normal day, and maybe even catch some things that are hard to find normally."
In the live broadcast room, Qi Xuan, wearing a homemade raincoat, had just waved to the camera when the roof behind him suddenly broke.
The torrential rain fell to the ground like jets of water, creating a small crater and splashing countless mud droplets.
The hole in the roof, about the size of a bottle cap, couldn't hold back the speed of the water flow either. In the blink of an eye, it rapidly expanded to the size of a bowl, and the water, like a waterfall, crashed to the ground, sending everything inside flying everywhere.
Seeing this scene, not only Qi Xuan, but also the viewers in the live stream were stunned:
"what's the situation?"
"How did the roof suddenly collapse?"
"What happened to the promised pre-construction reinforcement?"
"Hurry up and pack! Everything's about to be washed away!"
……
Seeing that the food was about to be washed away by the water, the netizens were all very anxious and started giving instructions in the live broadcast room.
If it really gets washed away, with the rain outside so heavy, there's no way it will be found.
After a moment of stunned silence, Qi Xuan immediately displayed astonishing agility.
He rushed to the door, using both hands and feet to stop a large number of fruits that were about to be swept away, and then grabbed them with both hands, and the fruits were gone immediately.
"Damn it, what time is it? Why are they still doing magic tricks?"
"Can't you do something productive? I admit you're a great magician, okay?"
"Hurry up and plug the leak! If you don't, your whole roof will be washed away!"
……
Netizens were speechless, but Qi Xuan ignored them.
After collecting the fruit that had been washed outside, he immediately ran to the side, kicked down several small trees about the size of a bowl, hugged them horizontally, and placed them at the entrance of the shack to block the things that had been washed away from the house, while allowing the water to leak out through the gaps below.
After doing all that, he went to a large tree nearby, stuck his tactical folding knife diagonally into the tree, and with a turn, a slash, and a circle, tore off a large piece of bark.
After doing this several times, Qi Xuan, having obtained seven or eight pieces of bark, hurriedly ran to the top of the shack and laid the bark layer by layer over the leak to secure it, temporarily stopping the leak from expanding further.
He then began to gather some wild grass, moss, and mud to further seal the gaps around the bark and roof to prevent rainwater from seeping in further.
After sealing the surface, he went back to the shack and began repairing the leaks inside and reinforcing the entire shack.
The morning's live broadcast was basically spent in a flurry of activity.
Although Qi Xuan didn't say anything throughout the process, his nimble skills left a very deep impression on all netizens.
There was even an online poll specifically for this, discussing whether they could calmly weather this sudden disaster if they were in Qi Xuan's shoes.
In less than two hours, a total of four million people participated in the vote.
The final result was quite surprising.
Thirty percent of respondents chose "letting food drift across the ocean and starve to death".
Thirty percent of respondents chose "the shack couldn't be repaired and the person was buried alive on the spot when the shack collapsed."
Nearly 40 percent of respondents chose "being swept away by a rainstorm, drowning, falling to one's death, being crushed to death, or other forms of death."
Only 0.7 percent of respondents chose "able to cope with disasters as smoothly as Qi Xuan, or even better than him".
The netizens who were watching were greatly surprised when they saw the voting results.
"No, I thought I was the only useless one. How come everyone else is just as useless as me?"
"Modern people's physical condition is such that they can die instantly after running a kilometer. What can we expect from them?" "Don't even mention it. My daughter got caught in the rain a little yesterday and immediately developed a high fever when she got home. In our day, we could go out and harvest crops even in a downpour."
"Last night, while I was working overtime, everything suddenly went black at my workstation. If you put me in Qi Shen's environment, forget about fixing up the shack, I would just lie down on the spot and run anywhere, since I was going to die anyway."
……
In addition to ordinary netizens, some wilderness survival professionals and even experts in the field have also commented.
Wilderness King: "Judging from the torrential rain in the live stream, even 'extremely heavy rain' is not enough to describe it. The effect of the raindrops hitting the body is almost comparable to small hailstones."
In such an environment, quickly handling a disaster, repairing shelters, and clearing floodwaters requires extraordinary physical strength and reflexes; it's absolutely impossible to do so without exceptional physical strength and reaction time. At least for me, I certainly couldn't have done it as smoothly as Qi Shen.
Langli Heitiao: "If you want me to repair the shed, I should be able to fix it. The key problem is that during the repair process, most of the things inside the shed will probably be washed away."
If I don't repair the shed to protect the food, by the time I've protected the food, the shed will almost be washed away.
This is a fundamental dilemma; a normal person would have to give up one of them, otherwise the food would be washed away and the shelter would be beyond repair.
Survivor Cannon: "I studied various wilderness survival skills, including plant and animal identification, fire making, climbing, diving, first aid, fishing, navigation, and so on."
I thought I had learned enough to handle any problem I might encounter in the wild, but after watching Qi Shen's live stream, I realized that it's far from enough.
I need to learn at least one more magic trick.
Everyone else uses magic tricks for performances, but who would have thought that Qi Shen uses magic tricks in real-life situations? That's just too outrageous.
I'm not going to mention anything else, I'm going to become your apprentice right now, @LiuChangTheGreatDemonKing.
Hiking Goose: "Let's go together! I'm also very interested in this magic trick. @LiuChangTheGreatDemonKing"
……
Liu Chang, a top magician who recently published a long article, was left feeling both amused and exasperated after being tagged by so many people.
"Brothers, that's not how you do magic. You'd be better off just stuffing a nylon bag in your pocket than performing magic."
"What about Qi Shen?"
"You call him a god? How can we compare to him? Ordinary people should use ordinary methods. Otherwise, even if you learn his magic tricks, what if you encounter danger and everyone else is grabbing bags to pack things up while you're just performing magic tricks? Don't you think about what if your magic trick fails?"
"..."
The group of people were suddenly awakened by Liu Chang's words.
Indeed, magic tricks can fail.
We shouldn't overlook this point just because we often see magicians perform successfully.
This made them even more envious of Qi Xuan.
Because that guy treated magic tricks as an instinct.
The online discussion was ongoing, and the afternoon's live broadcast on the Sky Screen arrived as scheduled.
They all thought that with the problem of the shack solved, they could at least sleep soundly in the afternoon.
However, they still underestimated the floating continent.
They underestimated the harsh environment of the floating continent.
