Live Streaming: Great Adventure in the Wilderness

Chapter 456: Nonsense, you were the one who laughed the happiest at that time!

Bi Fang, after wrapping his feet with soft branches covered in leaves, led Leonardo through the forest.

At this moment, the audience witnessed a rather bizarre scene.

In the dimly lit jungle, a man with bare skin and only a dense grass skirt around his waist, walking in crudely woven shoes, was guiding another man wearing long boots and trousers with an extremely thin beige shirt and a deerstalker hat on his head.

It brought to mind the thick familiarity of the early century’s Huailaiwu adventure movies when they first appeared.

Leonardo, dressed in modern attire, seemed like the Explorer from Ugly Country who, by a twist of fate, obtained a map of hidden treasures and thus ventured into the perilous Rainforest from afar.

Bi Fang, on the other hand, appeared to be a local indigenous resident, the only person in his tribe who spoke a foreign language. He became the guide at the ardent invitation of the Explorer.

If one added a blonde bombshell who could only scream in danger, a slightly older but knowledgeable Science professor, and, finally, a black person with a muscular reach for a particular purpose,

Hey, there was the complete team!

Only missing a villain to enter the scene or some terrifying creature; no camera crew needed, just three helicopters, and a first-person viewer experience.

Start filming!

[I’m really scared that a giant snake head might suddenly pop out of a tree and bite someone.]

[The imagery is so strong, I’ve already started to feel scared.]

[Are you also searching for the Dragon Blood Orchid?]

[One for eternal life, two for immortality!]

[No, I’m here to look for the professor. Have you seen my professor?]

After walking for a while, Leonardo became somewhat out of breath, not due to a lack of physical strength but because the environment was too taxing.

Even in the deep shade of the forest, the temperature was at least above twenty-five degrees. That wasn’t the worst part; it was the omnipresent humidity that was the real killer.

Being there felt almost like a steamer.

And then there were the incessant mosquitoes buzzing towards you, never stopping, despite Leonardo having already applied a layer of Insect Repellent on his body.

Leonardo was curious about how Bi Fang endured it. He didn’t have any Insect Repellent, did he?

Just as he was wondering, Bi Fang had already found what he was looking for. He approached a huge plant, which wasn’t really that huge.

Among the Rainforest’s trees that could reach over tens or even hundreds of meters, a tree that was thick at the waist and five or six meters tall was quite unremarkable.

“Is this a palm tree?” Leonardo hesitated, as the tree in front of him resembled a palm, but if there was something odd, maybe it was too robust?

Looking at the girth of the tree, it might still be juvenile and capable of growing further.

“No, this isn’t a palm tree, although many people do mistake it for one. This is actually Kuishan,” Bi Fang explained as he hugged the entire tree and began to move up bit by bit.

“Kuishan can grow up to twenty meters, but palm trees generally only reach about ten meters. Kuishan leaves are larger and the stems are thicker. It’s also an economic forest species, a type of ornamental plant for gardens and good for surrounding green belts.

“It’s less common now, but some friends in the countryside might still have it. It’s that round, yellow fan made of Kuishan. We make Kuishan fans from its tender leaves; the older leaves are used for making raincoats, and the veins of its torn leaves can even be made into toothpicks. The fruit and roots are medicinal.” RАℕȫBĘṤ

Bi Fang wrapped his arms around the trunk and stood on the tree to provide support, rather than hugging it with his legs.

Using both his hands and feet, he quickly climbed to a height of four meters.

“The bark of the Kuishan tree is very rough, making it easy to climb. Alright, now we need to pluck some of its leaves.” Bi Fang grabbed a large Kuishan leaf, looked down and called out, “Leonardo, catch this for me.”

“OK~!”

Bi Fang cleared the surrounding leaves, displaying the petiole of the Kuishan leaf for all to see, extending his right hand with his index finger and thumb just fitting around it.

“See? It’s really thick, more than enough to use as a sole for shoes. The fan-like leaves around it can also be lifted, they make natural shoes. But because it’s so thick, pulling it down will be a bit troublesome.”

Grasping the leafstalk, Bi Fang broke it off with ease, but the fibers inside were not so easy to cut through. Without a small knife, he could only tear them apart bit by bit, defeating them one by one.

If he tore at it violently, it was likely that he would directly snap the entire leafstalk, which would then ruin its integrity.

Soon, four large fan palm leaves had been picked by Bi Fang, all held in the arms of Leonardo, each leaf nearly half his body size.

[Damn, these leaves are huge]

[Aren’t these more than enough for making shoes?]

[Let me guess, after making shoes, are weapons next?]

[Prophet, cut it out!]

Bi Fang tore off the makeshift “grass shoes” from his feet, and after walking just a hundred or two hundred meters, the leaves on his feet were beginning to fall apart. He took two large fan palm leaves from Leonardo’s arms and placed them under his feet.

Bi Fang arranged the two fan palm leaves across each other, the leaves overlapping one by one, and finally gathered the stems together. The stems, thick as two fingers, came together to form a crude shape of a sufficiently thick shoe insole.

Leonardo’s eyes lit up; he hadn’t known how Bi Fang was planning to make them and had thought he would wrap his feet with leaves like before, which would hardly be comfortable.

Moreover, since the leaves were too thin, they wouldn’t feel too good on the feet unless they were stacked thickly, but that would be too time-consuming to weave.

It wasn’t just him; the audience thought the same. When they saw Bi Fang’s method, they couldn’t help but slap the table in admiration.

The stem served as the insole, and then the surrounding leaves were wrapped across like intertwined shoelaces, but his technique was more akin to wrapping rice dumplings, and it could be sealed without any knots.

Once all the cross-weaving was finished, Bi Fang bent the excess stem at the front, covering the top of his foot, and the hanging leaves at the sides were wrapped around again.

In less than fifteen minutes, a shoe emerged that looked as straight and proper as Iron Man’s foot armor.

In half an hour, shoes covered both feet.

Contrary to what the audience had imagined, with large leaves under the feet and vines threaded through the edges resembling flip-flops, a real pair of shoes that one could run and jump in, fitting comfortably, had been created!

Bi Fang stood up and tested them; the soft stems filled with fiber were not only durable but also very soft, padded with air inside, a true “air cushion.”

“Wearing them feels pretty good, very soft, and though they’re wrapped tightly around, they’re still very breathable, it feels nice.”

[Holy shit, amazing!]

[I bow to these skills]

[When the rice dumpling factory didn’t offer Master Fang triple the salary and he decided to leave, I was the first to disagree]

[Nonsense, you were the happiest one at the time!]

With the shoes, Bi Fang’s subsequent actions became much more convenient.

Leonardo looked envious: “I feel like the ones you’re wearing now are even more comfortable than mine.”

“Haha, that’s not really a fair comparison. They might be a little more comfortable in the short term, but they can’t be compared at all with industrial products in terms of quality. I guess I’ll have to switch to a new pair every two or three days. Fortunately, fan palms are quite common in the Rainforest, not hard to find, and not too troublesome to make.”

“That’s just for you. If I tried, just learning the weaving technique would probably take me days, let alone making a pair of shoes right away.”

“What are we going to do next?” Leonardo was eager to try.

It was almost eleven o’clock now, and he would be leaving that night; he didn’t want to miss this great opportunity.

Bi Fang naturally said, “Of course, it’s time to make ‘weapons.’ The Rainforest is too dangerous; we must have the ability to protect ourselves.”

“What is it?” Leonardo got excited. “Stone tools? Or are you going to start making iron tools?”

“No, it’s mud.”
