After all, even if his pursuers knew that he wasn’t dead in, it would still be extremely troublesome to come here, into the depths of the Amazonian jungle. He was merely lucky he did not encounter anything extremely dangerous along the way.
However, not everyone would end up like this. A silver-white poker card appeared between Shi Yu’s fingers at the sight of the green anaconda in front of him. Due to the environment and a few days’ worths of travel, the poker card that he had brought with him earlier had already been crumpled into a mess in Shi Yu’s pocket.
Looking at the green anaconda slowly approaching, a cold glint flashed across Shi Yu’s eyes. He was finally going to have lunch today. The card between his fingers instantly flew over and directly nailed the green anaconda to the tree branch.
The edge of the card directly pierced the green anaconda’s bones. It twitched on the tree branch, and as time went by, it slowly stopped twisting, leaving it hanging vertically on the tree branch.
Shi Yu took out his dagger and slowly approached the tree branch. He held the dagger with one hand and grabbed the tree trunk with the other. Suddenly, his body jerked.
His body went soft, and he almost fell, and in that instant, the back of his hand seemed to have been hit by a bullet. With his tremendous willpower, Shi Yu survived.
He looked at the back of his hand that was already swollen. A tiny brownish-black ant was crawling between Shi Yu’s thumb and forefinger.
Bullet ant! A bullet ant was crawling on Shi Yu’s hand. He swung his hand down forcefully to fling the ant off. Feeling the intense pain coming from the back of his hand, Shi Yu could not help but take in a deep breath of cold air.
Waves of intense pain were transmitted through the back of his hand to Shi Yu’s brain. The area bitten by the bullet ant could cause severe pain, just like the pain of being shot by a bullet. The victim would suffer from distress throughout the entire body for up to 24 hours.
The horrifying sting had made Shi Yu very irritable. He forcefully pulled out the silver poker card in front of him, and the body of the green anaconda fell to the ground with a thud.
After descending from the tree, Shi Yu picked up the dagger and dissected the snake’s body. About the size of an arm, it should be enough for his consumption.
However, in this humid environment, it was challenging to find dry wood. He could only climb the trees in the hope of an internet signal, trying to find some branches that were often illuminated by the sun on the trees closer to the sky.
He cut some down to make a fire, and now he wanted to live here for a while. He had to get rid of all the creatures nearby that threatened him. The skin of the green anaconda was a good example. He peeled it off and hung it on the tree he climbed.
Shi Yu threw all the organs of the green anaconda into the swamp ahead. He was curious to see what kind of creatures in the swamp could drive the green anaconda up the trees.
A few minutes after Shi Yu threw the organs into the water, he saw that the dead branches and leaves began to move toward the internal organs. The smell of blood had attracted the creatures in the swamp.
The sun shone on the swamp, and a scale appeared in Shi Yu’s eyes. Slowly, he saw the creatures in the swamp, and his pupils could not help but shrink.
Black cayman! They fed on all kinds of birds, reptiles, fish, and mammals. This powerful reptile could take in any animal that entered its territory unknowingly.
It opened its mouth and chomped onto the snake’s organs. Then, it slowly disappeared into the swamp again.
No wonder the green anaconda did not dare to enter the swamp. It turned out that the black caiman crocodiles were the overlords. However, he did not need to enter the swamp, and he could give some misleading information to those who came later.
Shi Yu took off her shoes and hung them up on a tree branch. Then, he slowly imprinted his footprints on some of the soil. Even if someone really chased him here, his footprints would lead into the swamp.
After doing all this, Shi Yu returned to the tree with satisfaction and skewered the meat of the green anaconda. After a while, a burst of black smoke with a hint of meat fragrance was emitted.
Looking at the slightly charred meat, Shi Yu nodded. At the very least, it was much better looking than the liver he had roasted previously.
After eating, Shi Yu began to climb back up the tree. He wanted to clean up all the creatures on it so that he could rest here.
After climbing up to more than twenty meters, Shi Yu picked up the small knife and ascended further. He would place a level one tree branch every step he took so that moving up and down would be convenient.
When he cleared the first thick branch, Shi Yu wanted to take a break. Very wide in size, the branch was about two meters in diameter.
Looking at this branch, Shi Yu nodded in satisfaction. After clearing the small branches on his head, he went down to the tree and ran to a nearby area to carefully pick a group of robust branches and cut them into shorter sticks.
Then he found some vines and tied the sticks up to make a wooden board. He cut some square holes on the edge of the stick so that the vines could hang it up.
Shi Yu, who had become a builder, began to cover the wooden board with the wet soil on the ground. He wanted to make it a waterproof layer so that when it rained, so water would not flow through the gaps.
After applying a layer of soil, he spread a layer of leaves on the ground before the earth dried up. This was to fool any would-be attackers. Then, he made a few more like this.
Shi Yu wanted to avoid pursuit for some time, meaning he would definitely have to live in the Amazon for a period, so he wanted to create a simple shelter on the tree.
Carrying a wooden plank on his back, Shi Yu climbed to the branch he had chosen. Looking at the thick branch, Shi Yu nodded again and continued to climb up. Just a few meters up, he found an extremely dangerous creature, a centipede was climbing down the branch.
The Amazon giant centipede was about 30 centimeters long and fed on many kinds of animals. It could also subdue and kill creatures that were larger than it, such as lizards, snakes, frogs, mice, bats, and so on.
If he were to sleep at night and be bitten by it, he would really die for no reason.
Shi Yu retreated to the side and took out the silver poker card in his hand. With a swoosh, he cut off the centipede’s body and watched it fall from a height of dozens of meters.
Climbing up again, he found a strong branch and tied vines on it, then slowly hung the board down and let it lean against the branch he chose. And just like that, it was done.
Then, Shi Yu climbed down and climbed up again with a board on his back. He cut a row of holes on the branch so that the board could fit in. He then cut a hole on the board above his head, and the two combined to form two walls.
Although a little crude and rudimentary, it solved the problem of living on his own for now. With this progress, Shi Yu finished four sides in a short while. He even made a door specially to separate half of the board and connected a few small holes with vines..
