Start by trimming cow hooves

Before the wild berries completely disappeared, Su Rui stocked up a batch of dried fruits in advance to make tea and supplement vitamins.

In order to avoid too much nutrition, the dried wild boar meat, liver powder and fish meat should also be mixed and eaten.

It may be because there was not much rain upstream.

Su Rui's fishing dam was sometimes good and sometimes bad. When there was water, he could occasionally catch some fish, but often because of the dry flow, he got nothing.

The time came to the 27th day.

Even with sufficient food, the negative emotions in his mind still accumulated slowly. The boring and empty daily life surpassed the food, clothing, housing and transportation, and became the biggest enemy that Su Rui had to face.

Fishing or doing handicrafts could no longer satisfy him.

Especially in the few hours from dark to sleep, he really couldn't find any way to kill time and relieve boredom. He even began to want to find some paper and pen to write a novel or script himself.

Everything around the camp could not bring him freshness. It was not until this time that Su Rui clearly realized how wonderful his original life was.

Maybe he had lived a comfortable life for too long, almost making him forget the hardships of ordinary people's lives. Standing on the top of the pyramid of human wealth, he still complained all day and felt bored. It was really wrong.

When this idea came into being, Su Rui clearly realized that the effect of this "self-abuse journey" exceeded expectations and released his mind to a new height.

Look at it from another angle.

If a professional company is opened around wilderness survival, it may be possible to grab a lot of orders from psychologists, and throw those with psychological problems or drug addicts in the wilderness, completely out of modern human society, and then they will be hungry all day and work hard for food, and maybe many problems will be solved.

Because of the lack of wooden nails and ropes, Su Rui used some simple mortise and tenon structures on the homemade raft.

The raft that took a few days to make is quite beautiful, with a piece of driftwood on both sides to balance the hull.

After the oars were made, Suri pushed the raft into the water with great effort, holding the camera in his hand and said self-deprecatingly:

"It seems that I have done nothing these days, I was just busy sawing wood, and my arms are still shaking a little bit."

"Since I got the wild boar, I have more time to do some woodworking in recent days, and now I can finally test the results of my labor."

"Okay, let's try it in the water first, I hope I can catch two more fish. To be honest, I am tired of fishing now, and I am beginning to feel impatient to stay here, mainly because it is too boring."

Every day is like a year, and it is finally about to be a full month.

Suri's small goals have basically been completed, and what he should experience and feel are almost the same. When he starts to feel that living in the wild has completely become a torture, it is almost time for him to leave.

A few days ago, Secretary Amanda came over and brought a new news.

After she acted as an agent and talked with the CEO of Netflix Entertainment, Trentz, she helped Suri get a salary of 2 million US dollars per episode of "Alone in the Wild".

That is to say, Suri has already earned about 10 million US dollars. If he can stay until the end, he can continue to earn about 22 million US dollars, but the price is to continue to endure patiently for dozens of days.

Other contestants can bite the bullet and stick to it for nearly 100 days for a prize of 500,000 US dollars.

However, Suri, who receives a weekly salary of 2 million US dollars, is not very interested in this salary.

The main reason is that although he is penniless at the moment, as long as he returns to his original pace of life, Suri doesn't even know where to spend the money. Whether buying a luxury house, an office building or a sky-high art work, it is equivalent to investing, not consumption.

For example, the market valuation of Lanai Island, which was bought at a high price, has risen to about 3 billion US dollars. The main reason is that the state of Hawaii has passed a commercial and housing plan to develop the "Lanai Island Town", making a large piece of land valuable, and the income from tourism has also increased year by year.

For just over 20 million US dollars, Suri can earn back this money by taking two or three hours to hold a concert, which is indeed not enough to continue to buy him two months of time.

When the small goal of participating in the program was achieved, he looked at the current life with a more leisurely mentality.

Sitting on the raft, Suri paddled leisurely, just quietly enjoying the surrounding scenery.

There was also a little otter beside him, lying next to the raft and looking around, suddenly diving into the water, accompanied by a string of small bubbles on the water surface, and soon saw it biting a fish weighing two kilograms, and returned to the raft to shake off the water on its body.

This made Suri speechless.

I quickly picked up the camera, took a picture of the little otter and its prey, and said:

"Hey, I can't believe what just happened, it actually went into the water and caught a fish!"

"To be honest, I was about to give up the plan to train it to fish, but now it seems that the previous training may be effective."

"But it seems a bit late now. I may leave here before the food reserves are consumed. Today I am enjoying the scenery around the Great Slave Lake with the mentality of a tourist."

"It has nothing to do with whether I can persist. It's just that it's near the end of the year and there are still many things waiting for me to deal with in the outside world. The temporary idea is to wait until I see the first snow of this year, and then I will pack up and leave here."

It's refreshing to row a boat on the Great Slave Lake.

Su Rui entertained himself by singing Chinese songs such as "Xiaochou", "People Like Me", and "A Dream". He only regretted that he didn't have a guitar at hand, which affected his performance.

The little otter only caught one fish, and after he was full, he was too lazy to move.

After rowing on the lake for about two hours, he returned to the camp and found that his house was almost robbed. He could see many footprints of some animals on the ground of the camp, and even the outside of the wooden house was bitten by something.

After careful observation, Su Rui felt that it should not be a bear or a wolf, but more like a raccoon or a porcupine.

If it were a few days ago, he might be very excited and want to use the prey that came to his door to add to his meal. Now that he has decided to withdraw from the competition early, there is no need to hunt for fun.

Just like the Eskimos back then, they could not survive without whale hunting, so their actions are understandable.

In modern times, some Eskimos have begun to use advanced tools, under the banner of maintaining traditional customs, to continue hunting endangered animals such as narwhals and polar bears, and sell narwhal horns and polar bear fur for profit, which is speechless.

It seems to be one thing, but it is actually two different things.

Facing the camera, Suri only said that when he left here, he would put the remaining food in the wild, hoping that some little guy could spend this winter comfortably.

Suddenly thinking of something, he also removed the trap he had set before.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and it should not be long before the Great Slave Lake area starts to snow (end of this chapter)
