Are You Telling An Eight-Year-Old To Survive In The Wilderness? Chapter 106

“Are these coconuts enough, Bell? Should we find more?” Annie Hathaway asked with concern.

“Yeah, although there are not many coconuts that fell, we should be able to find some on the other areas of the island.” Keira Knightley added.

Scarlett looked helpless as she said, “Unfortunately, many of the coconuts are on the trees. Otherwise, we wouldn't have to walk so far. The coconut trees are too tall.”

Bell smiled.

“Don't worry, there's no need to walk so far. It's just climbing a tree. I can do it.”

Everyone was stunned.

Scarlett said worriedly, “Can you really do it? The coconut trees are too tall. There are no safety tools here.”

Scarlett could not be blamed for this.

Normal coconut trees were 15 to 30 meters tall.

If a person fell from this height, the consequences were obvious.

Most importantly, coconut trees were not like other trees. Without branches, there was no way to find a foothold.

Seeing their worried looks, Bell smiled and said mysteriously.

“Don't worry. Since I said so, there is a way.”

“There are too few coconuts. They are not enough for the five of us.”

“Moreover, coconuts are a rare water resource. We have to collect more. It will be even more difficult to obtain fresh water at sea.”

Seeing that Bell had made the decision, Scarlett Johansson could not say anything else. She could only pray that Bell would be fine.

Bell looked around and finally locked his gaze on a coconut tree not far away. It was more than 20 meters tall.

There were six to seven coconuts on the top of the coconut tree.

It looked like the coconuts were almost mature, but they had not fallen off.

“This tree then.”

“Host, isn't this tree a little too tall?”

In the live-stream, many audience members saw that Bell had chosen such a tall tree and could not help but be worried.

Bell smiled.

“This coconut tree is indeed not short, but I have a way. Of course, I am not talking about climbing it bare-handed.”

“I will use a climbing method of some natives. It's not difficult to climb such a tree with it.”

Bell returned to the shelter and removed the ropes.

He tied the ends of the rope into a dead knot and weaved into '8' shape. Then, he stepped his feet into the two holes of the loop.

After testing the toughness of the rope, Bell nodded in satisfaction.

“Not bad, this rope should be able to withstand my weight.”

The audience in the live-stream couldn't help but be puzzled when they saw Bell's actions.

They did not know what Bell was doing.

Bell smiled.

“Actually, this method of climbing is very simple. You just need to grasp a certain technique. Now, I will give everyone a demonstration.”

With that, Bell jumped onto the tree trunk like an ape.

His feet were spread out, and were pressed tightly against the trunk of the coconut tree.

He was like a frog as he used the strength in his legs to move upwards.

In just a moment, he climbed to a height of several meters.

It did not look like it was difficult at all.

“When climbing, try your best to use the strength of your legs. Your hands are only responsible for grabbing the tree trunk and maintaining balance.”

“The most important thing about this method of climbing is the rope.”

“I believe some of the audience have already guessed the effect of the rope. It increases the friction with the tree trunk.”

“The increase in friction will let us easily stick to the tree trunk and save a lot of strength.”

After hearing Bell's explanation, some of the audience in the live-stream were enlightened.

While they were talking, Bell had already climbed to the top of the tree.

Bang!

Bell plucked a huge coconut and threw it on the beach.

Although this coconut tree had many coconuts, there were not many usable ones.

In the end, Bell only harvested four coconuts.

“Four coconuts should be enough for one person, but we have a lot of people, so we need to try to find more.”

“The method to go down is the same as when we came up.”

“But we have to be careful.”

In the end, Bell climbed four coconut trees to gather enough coconuts for the five of them.

Scarlett felt her heart ache.

Keira Knightley sensibly opened a coconut for Bell and cooked some oysters to replenish his energy.

Time passed slowly.

Bell opened the coconuts one by one.

The green-skinned coconut did not have as much liquid as the ones seen in markets.

After opening the coconut, there was more milky white flesh.

The few of them spent a lot of effort crushing the coconut meat until it was sticky before stopping.

After another round of heating them, Bell finally obtained what he wanted: coconut oil.

He touched it gently and moved it to the camera.

“Look, this is coconut oil we extracted.”

“This coconut oil is very soapy. It can block ultraviolet light.”

“Although it's not as useful as sunscreen, we really don't have a choice in our current situation.”

After all, they were in the wild.

True survivalists could only search for a way to survive in the environment. They were not qualified to talk about any conditions with the environment.

Then, Bell looked at Scarlett and the other women.

“Be careful when applying coconut oil. Don't put it near your eyes.”

“If it enters your eyes, you will feel extreme pain.”

The few of them nodded to show that they understood.

“We have fresh water, food, and coconut oil now. The weather is perfect. It's time to set off.”

“To be honest, I'm quite looking forward to it.”

“I wonder if we can be saved successfully by riding the bamboo raft that we made ourselves.”

Scarlett and the others looked nervous.

After all, this was an unprecedented challenge.

The calm surface of the sea actually contained countless dangers.

Even a huge cruise ship would not be safe on the sea.

But now, Bell was going to conquer this sea with just the bamboo raft he made.

Apart from feeling nervous, everyone also had a trace of anticipation.

They were looking forward to seeing Bell succeed.

“Alright, don't just watch. Give me a hand, we need to move the raft to the water.”
