It had not drunk water for more than a day. Seeing the small lake, Flowery was so excited that she stuck her tongue out and was eager to give it a try.
If Lin Han hadn't stopped it in time, it would have already rushed over.
The lack of water in animals would also affect their judgment. Their sensitivity to danger would also be greatly reduced.
"Xiao Hua, don't worry. I'll definitely let you drink to your heart's content today.”
Lin Han patted Littleflower's head and comforted him with a smile.
The lake wasn't big, and its circumference was only five to six hundred meters. The lake was flat, with only a 20-meter-long stone bank in the east that protruded more than a meter above the water.
That was where Lin Han got his water.
"Friends, are you up? Today, I'm going to get water from the crocodile's mouth. Isn't it exciting? However, you don't have to worry about me, because I've already thought of a very good way.”
Lin Han muttered to himself while facing the camera.
"Everyone, the soil here is very loose. I can dig a ditch along the stone to guide the water over. This way, Xiao Hua can drink water safely. In the future, it will be much more convenient for me to fetch water myself.”
"Xiao Hua, stand on the rock and help me keep an eye on the lake. If there are crocodiles approaching, alert me immediately.”
"Awoo!"
Xiao Hua accepted the order!
Now that he had the skills of a beast tamer, Lin Han had more confidence in facing the crocodile.
Crocodiles would not hunt in shallow waters or on land, so Lin Han chose a relatively safe location.
Moreover, with Littleflower watching from the side, Littleflower could detect danger in time.
Double insurance.
The soil on the shore had been soaked in water for a long time, so it was relatively soft. Lin Han did not need any tools. Soon, he dug a pit about the size of a bathtub and about 20 to 30 centimeters deep two meters away from the shoreline.
At this moment, the bottom of the pit was lower than the surface of the lake. Under the effect of the water's infiltration pressure, some mud had begun to rise from the bottom of the pit.
However, the water was mixed with mud, and the amount of water was far from enough.
Lin Han jumped in and continued digging with the hard conch shell.
Just as he had guessed, the soil on this island was relatively soft, and water could easily permeate through it.
He only needed to dig another 30 centimeters deep, and he, Big Flower, and Little Flower would have enough water to drink in the future.
He could even use extra water to wash his body.
"Ouch…"
Suddenly,
Littleflower, who was standing on the rock, suddenly became nervous. She gritted her teeth and roared at the water.
Lin Han was shocked and quickly jumped onto the rock.
Looking down at the surface of the water, he saw a huge head quietly sinking into the water.
Crocodile!
Its head alone was 70 to 80 centimeters long, and its entire body was at least two meters long!
It was less than ten meters away from where Lin Han was just now!
However, it did not intend to attack. It only probed the situation and dived into the water.
From a hunting point of view, it had no chance of succeeding where Lin Han was standing just now.
Hunters in nature were all very smart. Without the confidence of success, they would not alert the enemy. The reason why it surfaced was because it did not see the flower that was hiding on it.
"Xiao Hua, well done! It won't come looking for trouble with us for the time being.”
Seeing the crocodile leave, Lin Han praised Littleflower for being quick-witted.
It was great to have such a companion.
"Roar ~"
Flowery was overjoyed.
Lin Han returned to the pit and continued to dig. Because the soil was soft, the big conch he found was more convenient. Soon, he dug another 30 centimeters deep.
At this moment, the water had already started to bubble up from the bottom.
Success!
This pit could store at least 100 liters of water, which was enough to satisfy the daily needs of one person and two beasts.
After washing his hands and feet, Lin Han sat down on a rock to rest.
"Xiao Hua, wait patiently for a while more and you will be able to drink clean water.”
"Roar ~"
"The soil can filter out some soil and viruses. It's cleaner than drinking the water from the lake.”
"Roar ~"
It wasn't clear if it understood what he meant, but it just said," Master is so awesome."
After resting for a while, Lin Han continued to work.
In order to prevent crocodiles from spying on him, and to prevent other animals from taking the water that he had painstakingly lured out, Lin Han found some stones from the surroundings and piled them into a stone wall to separate the waterhole from the lake. Then, he found some branches and stuck them around the waterhole. He covered the branches with some wide leaves to hide them.
In this way, animals generally wouldn't drink the water inside.
Half an hour later, the water in the pit was already more than half, and it was very clear.
"Xiao Hua, drink as much as you want!"
"Roar ~(Long live Master!)"
It had been almost two days since he last drank water. Littleflower lay by the water and drank to his heart's content.
Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the mission-- Reward: Plant Illustrated Guide.
