Poten

The first thing Minho faced was an incredibly sturdy wooden dam that the animals had built.

It was a mysterious and bizarre experience for Minho, who had never seen it before, to see a strong bank filled with mud, stone and grass between the willow and the barn trees.

“This is tense. ”

Standing at the edge, Minho puts his hand on the shining wooden dam. If you run into any unexpected trouble, I use my left hand to ask for help with the Indian knowledge.

Mild light was absorbed, and Minho was briefly flawed by strange emotions that had never been felt in his life.

"Why do you want to chew on the bark? ’

Minho shakes his head, instinctively catching that the tree itself is the beaver's prey. No matter how much I experience the feeling of wild animals, I can't eat trees.

Pot, one of the wildlife experiences of the animal who built this amazing dam, along with the darkest of its vision, came into my head.

Beaver, who looks like a giant land squirrel, has a slow-looking face to his wobbly body. However, it was elegant, fast and agile as it was underwater.

‘It's cute, but she looks fierce. ’

The beaver comes out of the water, runs into the forest, finds the right tree, chews down the basin, cuts it into pieces, puts it in the required location of the dam, and applies mud and moss to fill the hole with countless repetitions.

This was similar to the experience of documenting a kingdom of similar animals in an immersive 4D movie at the first person.

The dam lost the memory of the young wildlife, and Minho turned his gaze back to the beaver's nest, a massive 50m structure.

A beaver's beloved area where several generations have worked on the ball for a long time.

Minho repeatedly admired that there was a broader and more elaborate pile of water underneath than there was at the top. The beaver's family lived in a space beneath the dam.

In addition, it was discovered that there are areas of trout overflowing in certain areas of the lake, perhaps because of Beaver's knowledge.

‘I've had this rare experience in my life. My father would never have done this. ’

Minho shrugged his shoulders as he smiled as he realized that something to show Yoon Hwan when he went to Korea.

Mr. River, you've never seen a dam like this before?

Minho nods at Scarlet's slow pursuit.

Yes, it's amazing.

I keep staring, and I see knowledge that blends with the experience of the Indians.

All the trees in this dam have wide leaves.

Are the leaves wide?

A pointed tree like a spruce tree or a cypress tree remained in the forest, and only the rest were cut down. It's hard to survive in the shade of the tree. Could it be that that beaver designed the ecosystem of this forest?

"Stop! Turn on the camera.

Scarlet begins filming. Minho told me enough of the Indian knowledge that the beaver had knocked down the larger tree to make it reach the smaller tree with sunlight.

While continuing to look at Beaver's favorite area with his hands on the dam, Minho realized that there was a lot of rain in the center recently and that the water was broken.

Why didn't you pay for it? ’

When I looked closely, it was a place Beaver couldn't reach with his bare hands. I put some mud on it, but it didn't work. The hole keeps reducing the lake's water.

I expected the sleep of this lake to sink to that hole in a few days if I let it sit still.

Huh?

The moment I thought about it, I felt a warm energy on the back of my left hand. Another knowledge of the forest appeared as a picture symbol appeared over the dam.

When the beaver builds the dam, the trees in the water slowly rot away. This meant the emergence of a new ecosystem, but it also meant that the lake turned into a treasure warehouse full of organic matter.

Rugged paintings of new meadows, marshes, water birds, and fish spawning would appear and disappear in spring.

You want me to help you? ’

The story of the Indians that the role of natural engineers and spiritual animals is to protect the diversity of the region.

The request for protection of this place was also clear.

Though the water would be cold, Minho dropped his baggage and immediately took off his jacket and trousers, thinking he could take on the axis that constitutes the forest's one-year history. Scarlet's face blushes as she looks at Minho while touching the camera.

Me, Mr. Kang. I followed that intention…….

Boom!

When Minho did not look back and got it into the lake, Scarlet looked up the camera in surprise.

‘Chug, chug. ’

Whether the symbol of the thunder arrow is a blessing, diving itself was not difficult. Minho breathed out the rest of his breath after submerging himself to the bottom of a lake three meters deep, spreading the mud from the floor into his hands and climbing back to the surface.

Mr. River! What are you doing!

Minho nods at the dam and swims out of Scarlet's voice.

Approaching the center, Minho pushes the mud deep into the beaver's arm. And I shouted to Scarlet, who was shining a camera.

I'm going to fix the dam because of the rain before the lake runs out of water.

Why….

You don't need to be curious to explore nature, you need a reason.

Minho smiles brightly and disappears back into the lake.

Repeating three more times, the leak was noticeably less. Minho took a big breath and dived in and picked up one last big stone. Then, as I tried to swim to the surface, I swung to the side and saw the overshadowing shadow.

Min-ho, who opened his mouth in shock and drank water with a foaming sound, quickly came to the surface.

“What?”

Minho, who was looking for the shadow he just saw, shakes his head, finds a chubby animal that appeared near the hole in the dam and stops.

Beaver.

“Hey, are you the owner? ”

Naturally, the beaver swam gently next to Minho, who was floating in the water. Then, Minho rubs the stone in his hand with a round head that looks like a baby bear.

“Ah……. Yeah, I was gonna put this in there. May I?”

There was no answer, but I felt positive.

As Minho swims forward, the beaver circles around his side. Minho climbs up the dam and sits on a flat log with the last piece filled in the hole.

Beaver looks around for a perfect hole in the water and turns his head toward Minho.

“Do I look all right? I may not be as sophisticated as you, but I will survive. ”

Glug, beaver swimming toward Minho, shakes his arm and gives a thank-you gesture. Splashed, he waves his hand and swoops around and swims out to the edge of the lake.

Scarlet, who was filming this scene breathlessly, came back with a stick in his mouth and released a small elasticity to Minho.

“Eat me? People can't eat this stuff. ”

Beaver reacts with a big, wide tail as he strokes his head as if it were cute. With Minho comfortably communicating with the wild animals, Scarlet could hardly keep his mouth shut.

“Oh, it's cold. I have to go now.”

Minho swam out of the lake again. Scarlet points to the beaver, who's running after him.

Mr. River. I know this is a silly question, but are you friends with that beaver? Or maybe a beaver trainer?

No way. And you have a job like that?

Minho turns his head as he plucks off the water.

A beaver that looks at you with dazed eyes. You continue to look at your face. It was evening soon, and the nocturnal beaver was active. I could clearly feel it now, sharing Beaver's emotions by touching the love zone.

However, Minho planned to catch trout before sunset.

“Go back. Play with your friends. ”

A beaver that shakes its wet hand, but comes closer.

“Why does this guy keep following me? Now go.”

A beaver that doesn't make sure Minho doesn't think it's dangerous at all. Minho shakes his head and points to Scarlet on the other side of the lake.

"Scarlet, I'm going to catch some trout over there.

"Trout"? Fishing?

Fishing is...

Originally, I tried to use the old-fashioned fishing methods taught me by the Indian knowledge, but with the knowledge of the beaver, it was right to take the quickest method, knowing that there was half a fish in the water. I went into the lake, and it was worth a swim.

Boom!

Minho jumped into the water with his dagger in his hand. After diving and approaching the bush, I saw a place full of eighty centimeters of rainbow trout.

‘Good.'

Reach into any myelin and you'll catch a fin of a trout. At the depths where the water had just flowed down from the mountain valley, Minho began to sweep away the trout with a chunky meat shack.

“Oh, you were stunned. ”

Yooseok, who was in his sleeping bag, reaches out his head. When he woke up hungry, he grabbed his bag and took out some food and found the orange bitten sky.

“Is it night already? Brother Ore, is Minho here? ”

Deep Ore, sitting by the campfire, shakes his head at this horse. Yellowstone sat next to the heart stone, holding a dry piece of bread in his hand.

“Well, I went with Scarlet's wife. Check it out, pick mulberries! The later you come, the better... Ugh! ”

The cornerstone staring at the lake turned its head as it groaned.

A bizarre view of Minho holding a wooden trout in his arms, Scarlet holding a few folds of film, and a giant squirrel walking together.

At that moment, he remembered a scene in foreign currency that he had seen a long time ago. Although he didn't wear a ten-won panty and a 20-won knife, it was almost like Min-ho was taking off his top.

After the hunt, Tarzan and Jane returned with Cheetah for approximately one minute.

“What, what, what, Min-ho! ”

Hansook and the winner, who were interviewing the National Filming Team, turned their heads to Minho who ran back to the camp and were equally embarrassed.

“There were more rainbow trout than I expected. If I carry the leftovers with me, I won't have to worry about food. Let's get this all sorted out. Ore brother-in-law's First Blade is Steamed by me. ”

“Yaaaaww! This trout is really good. I haven't had a day off because of Minho. But Minho...”

Huang Ji-seok pointed to a furry creature that was following her like a pet puppy next to Minho.

“What's this? ”

“Hey, Justin! Go home!”

Minho lays the trout on the stone and shakes his hand. However, the creature does not look surprised but tilts its head with its mild-looking eyes.

“Justin?”

“I kept talking about trout, so I gave it a sort of similar name. ”

One of the group gathers points at Justin.

“Minho, isn't that the beaver? ”

“That's right."

“How did you tame him? ”

“Oh, it's not like that... ”

Minho blocked the hole in the dam and briefly explained that it follows.

We encountered a lot of wild animals over the past few days, but the opportunity to observe them up close was rare, so we surrounded Beaver in a strange way.

“Picture! Picture! ”

Scarlet raises the camera at the cry of the Imperial Stone.

Beaver and Justin are surrounded and photographed by a group of "Men and Jungle" drawing V. Several times. After the group photo, I even took a selfie one-on-one.

“He's so cute. Stinky, Kimchi!”

“I think I'm really good at following Minho. ”

“Minho, can I hold her? ”

Kang Min-ho! ”I took as much selfie with Beaver as I shouted.

Team Leader, we want you too!

Photography time with the Beaver is not an easy opportunity in life, but also comes to Bill and Ralph, filming teams.

Beaver, who became Santa Claus and took pictures with the children, only glanced at Minho's side with a round gaze, not fearing or avoiding the group.

Secondary supply point Wasp Shelter, 102 km.

Cheers.

Scarlet. It's only 82 km now? The pace is slowing down. Number four. Now.

- How long have you been gone?

Frank looked at the coordinates of the team 'Realist’ and said,

Approximately 64 miles.

- Almost a day apart from us.

You know, Henry Style. I don't have time to rest. I will die.

Henry grins as he approaches Frank on the radio. Frank shakes his head as if he were bored and tells Scarlet.

After posting the Korean team's propaganda to the Realist blog, he seems to be reacting. Henry says he'd like to go into more detail about the course.

- I think it's a trick request. Is the Korean team responding well to that blog?

Half. Scarlet knows that Henry is trying to win first place.

- Well, it doesn't matter. The Korean team's journey is already winning or losing...

Jijik.

Scarlet's rear end is cut off due to poor communication.

- Tell Henry I don't know if he'll look funny if he doesn't get first place.

After the radio, Frank said, "Did you hear that? ’I looked at Henry with my eyes.

Scarlet is a confident voice. Don't you worry about this taunt, Henry?

We are taking the most optimal courses ahead. The scenery where my team passes through is being captured every day and updated in real time. Visitors' reactions are more explosive than ever. Shoe! What's the daily number of visitors?

2 Million.

"Did you hear that? What are you worried about?

If the leader is so.

Frank wonders if Scarlet's bluffing this time, too.

Day 6, 82km.

It's been a long morning with a pleasant sky.

Minho opened his eyes in a warm mood and was startled to see the birch tree piled up right next to his sleeping bag. It's so greasy, it's used for campfire when you're camping well on fire, but at night it was blown up more than a sheep.

Did Justin leave it behind? ’

How grateful I would be to help you build the dam. The expression of gratitude that Beaver showed as just an animal was unlimited enough that he wanted to reflect on his actions when he only treated people computationally to use his affections.

‘I can't carry that. It's heavy. ’

Disadvantages and disadvantages of being a little useless.

Scarlet's camera, which was up first, came out of the sleeping bag and turned on Minho's base.

Good morning, Scarlet.

Aren't you going to make flowers today?

You have to. Skip the interview. "

Why?

I can't. Scarlet kept looking at me. I saw it yesterday when I was catching trout.

Umm...

Minho's eyes that he got caught.

No?

Scarlet, who was about to press the play button on the camera, swipes back and forth in the direction of his approaching step, and starts smoking again.

I'll wash up and come back. Hehe.

Minho smiles and disappears into the lake. Scarlet bows his head. Meanwhile, the rest of the party wakes up one by one.

Scarlet approaches the others, thinking that Minho's morning interview was over.

“Good morning, Scarlet.”

Zhang Zi-seok puffed up and waved his hand with his right eye. Last night, your face was quite swollen because you showed off your disguise for inhaling an entire batch of baked trout.

How did you sleep?

“Slip… well? Oh, good morning. Good slip, good slip. Wash up.”

Yellow rocks walking to the shore during an interview with Conglyshi as usual. Scarlet subsequently asked Hansook and Shimmering Stone similar questions, but unlike yesterday, they didn't all seem to have nightmares.

Mr. Jung. How are you feeling?

Good. I gave you great protein with trout, and you seem to be in good health.

What about nightmares?

Not at all. As expected, Kang Minho probably didn't have a nightmare because he didn't say anything.

Scarlet resisted smiling at the end of the winning streak that struck Minho every time. Even if she talks like that, Min-ho will do whatever she asks. I thought and worked hard as a rival, but I felt sorry for myself.

Will you try rock climbing again the next time you go on a leadership run?

In this question, the winner just started clearing out his sleeping bag. Then he looked at the pile of birch trees piled next to Minho's sleeping bag and tilted his head.

Why is this here so much... ….

I think Justin did.

Justin?

Now he sighed at the fact that the camera was stolen from the animals, and his gaze remained on the peculiar ornament hanging from the branches next to the camp.

Scarlet turns the camera around because he's never seen it before.

A unique ornament wrapped in cobweb-shaped threads on a round willow ring. Scarlet checks to see if you've seen him anywhere.

"Aha, that's it.

Do you know what it is?

It's a traditional Indian magic ornament called Dreamcatcher.

Oh, catching that nightmare and letting me have a good dream....

It was something I had seen in a Korean drama, so I stopped trying to show off my knowledge. There's only one person who can make this and hang it. When did this sense come into play?

You must have made it, right?

I don't know

The winner who didn't want to fly Kang Minho anymore hurriedly walked to the lake.

Team Leader. Who will be joining you today? Looks like the leader of the Mister River is on his way back.

Bill approaches Scarlet, who is filming his dream catcher carefully.

"What are you filming so hard for?

Bill, did you sleep well?

Yes.

Did it work?

What you mean. What is that?

An ornament with the magical meaning of an Indian tribe. I made this stuff and hung it up for my colleagues who had nightmares.

Scarlet was surprised that he slept comfortably, too. Bill stared at the dream catcher and said.

If you look at it, I think the Mister River is from India. You're so spiritual. Isn't it possible that you're Asian?

Yes.

Sometimes, when I was filming Minho, I realized that something strange was catching up with him, so I thought this was more believable.

Course meeting time at the end of the meal, just before departure.

“Go around. Min-ho's in charge today. ”

“How's everyone doing? ”

No one complained of pain at Minho's question in front of him as today's leader. Hwang Ji-seok looked at the area of the lake and said.

“It feels good to be here. Can I walk for 20 kilometers today? Then we're only halfway there. ”

Looking at the terrain on the map and the Indian pictorial symbols in front of him, Minho thought as soon as he saw the large river at the end of the realm.

The weather is nice and the water from the rainfall a few days ago is moderately calm.

“The tributaries from this lake go all the way down to that stream. ”

Minho takes a hand-print of the area where the group is standing, then points to the French Broad River, which is 50 kilometers away.

Yellowstone opened his eyes wide.

“What, are we gonna go swimming? Three days away, too? ”

“It's not swimming. ”

I also looked at the map and asked.

“There are only three tributaries that are not listed on the map right now, and how do you intend to find a way to reach the stream 50 kilometers away? What if you get stuck in the valley and you have to come back out? ”

“It's not that hard to find a path. ”

“Because you're from the country? ”

“That's it, well... Haha. ”

Swimming and playing in this area every day on the waterway was instinctively melted by Beaver's experience, so when I touched the dam, I could see the waterways that had recently been turned upside down.

Minho speaks calmly to his group, looking at him as if he was in a daze.

“I know it sounds irresponsible, but you just have to build a raft in the morning and sit by the water in the afternoon, and you'll get to the river. because the rain is speeding up. I am confident that if I heal all the minor injuries to this day, I will be able to walk like a picnic for the remainder of the day. ”

“Kang Min-ho, let's say we take a ride. Are the rafts coming out? It'll take at least a day to make it big enough for a couple of people to ride. ”

“That……. ”

The most important part of the spark.

“I could borrow some of Justin's fallen logs. ”

Everyone who remained in Minho's remarks that Beaver was going to use the cut material to make the dam had to feel a slight difference in perspective.

“I think it'll be fun. ”

“I want to follow Minho's opinions. ”

Hansook and Shim Khwang were in favor. Later, Hwang Jin-seok nodded.

“Well, I'm going to follow you today, because your leader is Min Ho. Don't you think you're just going to look ridiculous in front of the National Camera? ”

The group glances at the winner, who has not yet responded, as he mainly followed the consensus rather than the majority.

“I……. ”

All I wanted was for the Elite Winner to fail. If Kang Minho tries anything crazy, it will definitely succeed.

“… let's do it. ”
