Chapter 159 In Danger

While tending to the fire, Wu Zhongyuan dried his clothes by the way. Since he had been out in the cold for too long, his hands and feet began to itch after he recovered.

The itch is bearable, and the sleepiness is bearable, but the hunger is uncontrollable. Since I have to tend the fire, I can't sleep, so I might as well go out hunting.

The Aryans have a special skill for finding and taming wild beasts. The principle is to adjust their breathing, get rid of distracting thoughts in their hearts, and let themselves enter a state of selflessness similar to that of an old monk.

What is "I"? I am the self-awareness of the five senses. When entering the state of selflessness, the five senses will be dormant and stagnant. At this time, the innate sixth sense that has been suppressed by the acquired five senses will awaken. The sixth sense is somewhat similar to intuition. , but it’s not exactly the same. After the sixth sense awakens, you can hear small sounds that you couldn’t hear before, you can see subtle scenes that you couldn’t see before, you can smell faint smells that you couldn’t smell before, and you can also feel the surroundings. A living creature that exists within a certain distance.

This feeling is a bit like the Taoist feeling of the unity of heaven and man. The perceived distance is not fixed, but varies from person to person. To be precise, it varies with the level of spiritual energy cultivation, because the spiritual energy cultivation level The higher the height, the stronger the body's functions and the sharper its senses.

It is easier to find wild beasts, but it is relatively difficult to tame wild beasts. Finding wild beasts relies on low-level perception, while taming wild beasts relies on high-level sensing. A radio can receive many different channels, which is searching for wild beasts. If you want to tame a beast, you must adjust your channel to the same channel as the beast you want to tame, so as to sense and influence their emotions.

However, this method is ineffective for people, and the reason is very simple. Human thinking is the most complex and fickle. If you like you one moment, you may hate you the next, and there is no trace of it at all. The emotions of animals are simple and stable and do not change easily.

If you want to enter a state of selflessness, you don't need to close your eyes. Closing your eyes will cause distracting thoughts. It feels like a car gliding in neutral. You don't need to turn off the engine, just take off the gear.

Although it was his first time trying it, Wu Zhongyuan didn't feel unfamiliar because this method of Sanhu has been completely transferred to him, including the techniques to perform and the issues that need to be paid attention to.

He can't even reach the light red aura now.

With his weak sixth sense, the range he could sense was only a dozen meters, so he could only walk slowly while searching for sensors.

No matter what you do, you need to pay a price, and the same goes for sensor search. Using the sixth sense will consume a lot of energy and make people easily tired. Fortunately, he didn't go very far when he sensed a very obvious living thing.

The living creature was in the grass on the right, about ten meters away from him. When he noticed the existence of the living creature, he did not fire the arrow immediately, but concentrated on sensing what the living creature was. He felt that this thing was the most difficult to control. The more deliberate he was, the more inaccurate he was. He felt that what was hidden in the grass was a rabbit, but what he pulled out after shooting was a mountain rat.

People have to be good at introspection and summary. The reason for the misjudgment this time was mainly because he mixed subjective assumptions while perceiving. To put it bluntly, in his opinion, there was a high possibility that the rabbit was hiding here. Any adulteration Subjective judgments are not objective.

This mountain rat is quite big, weighing over three kilograms, but no matter how big it is, it is still a rat. He instinctively rejects rats, but he really doesn’t have the energy to search anymore, and the campfire cannot be left alone for a long time. The nurse finally had no choice but to bring the mountain rat back.

After returning, he added firewood to the campfire and tested the young woman's breathing. Although it was weak, it was still steady. I touched her hand again, it was okay, not very cold. If it was cold, I would be unhappy.

Then he started to clean up the mountain rats, disemboweled them, cut off their heads and tails, wiped them clean with the snow outside the cave, and inserted sticks. However, this thing was really disgusting, and he was not hungry yet. After hesitation, he did not cook it immediately. Bake it, then send it to the snow outside the cave to freeze.

After a large amount of blood loss, a small amount of water is needed, but the patient cannot drink ice water, he must drink hot water. Fire is ready, and snow is also ready, but there is no container for boiling water. After thinking about it, I went out and cut down a tree trunk as thick as a bowl. Use the dagger you grabbed during the day to hollow out the middle, fill it with snow and bake it on the fire. This method can also heat the water, but it is impossible to boil it, and the heated hot water still has wood. the smell.

A person who has passed out cannot swallow, so she has to be fed water little by little. If she is fed too fast, she will choke. After struggling for a long time, she finally finished half a bowl.

It must have been three or four o'clock in the morning. Wu Zhongyuan was sleepy and physically and mentally exhausted. He really couldn't hold on anymore, but he was afraid that if he overslept and the bonfire went out, the temperature in the cave would drop, so he piled firewood from the bonfire to himself. The place where he lay was about one meter long. When the bonfire came over, he would be awakened.

Not long after, he woke up from being burned. At this time, it was bright outside, and snowflakes began to fall in the sky again. After putting away the fire, he went to test the young woman's breathing again, but there was no sign of improvement, and her breathing seemed to be weaker.

After heating the hot water, he helped the young woman up again and wanted to give her water. When he reached out, he found that the young woman's back was very cold. Although he had been warming up the cave, he had ignored that the young woman was always lying on the cold ground. superior.

There was nothing to pave the way for her in the cave, so he had no choice but to take off his clothes and pave the way for her. But he only had these clothes. If he paved the way for her, he would be too cold to bear it. There was nothing he could do. We could only go out to look for hay from branches. It was not easy to find hay. Most of it was wet with snow. I did nothing else all morning but was busy drying hay to make beds.

Not only did she lay a thick straw bed, but she also piled branches to make a low wall to block the wind. The entrance of the cave was too big to allow the cold wind to blow directly on her.

If you have something to do, you won't think randomly. Although Wu Zhongyuan is busy, he is no longer as empty as yesterday. No matter how depressed he is, he has to accept the reality and cannot be immersed in nostalgia and memories of modern times. No matter how beautiful modern times are, they can't go back. went.

The last meal he ate was yesterday's breakfast. Now he is so hungry that his chest is pressed against his back. He wants to roast the mountain rat, but he doesn't want to. What if he can't find other food? He has to go out. Turn around again.

This time, he had better luck. He didn't have to look for it deliberately. He didn't go far when he met a sea rabbit. This guy caught a mountain rabbit and was feasting on the tree.

Seeing Wu Zhongyuan approaching, Hai Dongqing wanted to flutter his wings and fly away, but he gave up his life rather than his wealth and insisted on running away with the uneaten rabbit. Wu Zhongyuan drew his arrow and knocked it down with one arrow.

Haidongqing was not dead and was still flopping around. Wu Zhongyuan picked up the half of the rabbit first. Eagles have a habit of eating. They like to eat the internal organs first and don't eat much of the meat.

After looking at the rabbit, Wu Zhongyuan's eyes moved to Hai Dongqing, and at a glance he saw that Hai Dongqing had a small bamboo tube tied to his left leg.

Seeing this small bamboo tube, he realized that this sea turtle was domesticated by humans to deliver messages.

When Hai Dongqing was completely dead, he untied the bamboo tube, pulled out the cork, and took out the cloth roll inside. There was no writing on the cloth roll, only three red crosses.

Wu Kui knew most of the things he knew. These three symbols were the code words of the Bear Clan. They were summoning the purple energy masters stationed abroad to go to the capital. The number of crosses represented the degree of urgency. Three crosses were the most, indicating that The situation is most urgent.

After looking at the cloth, his first reaction was whether the Bear Clan's lair had been taken over by someone, but after thinking about it, this possibility was unlikely. Although the Bear Clan has declined now, as the saying goes, a broken ship can still survive. With the Three-Pin Nail, neither the Ox Clan nor the Bird Clan could destroy the Bear Clan without being harmed.

In addition, the Bear Clan is located between the two tribes, with the Ox Clan to the west and the Bird Clan to the east. Everyone knows the reason why one is declining and the other is growing. Whoever destroys the Bear Clan first will suffer losses, while the other party They will take advantage of the situation and reap the benefits.

The Bear Clan is now a bully, and everyone bullies it, but unless one of the Bird Clan and the Ox Clan has the strength of one versus two, no one will destroy the Bear Clan first and let others take advantage.

Knowing that such a thing happened, he didn't pay too much attention to it, and went back with Hai Dongqing and Rabbit. He had no ability to change anything now, and if he knew it, it would be in vain. It was just like ordinary people watching the news and caring about national affairs every day. In fact, If you know it, you know it in vain. Nothing can be changed. National affairs must be handled by those in high positions.

He went out and dragged some more firewood back. He picked up all the dry firewood nearby. Fortunately, after the fire was strong, wet wood could also be burned.

He skinned the rabbit and plucked the hair of Haidongqing, but he was not willing to eat it. Instead, he took out the mountain rat and roasted it.

Grilling food over fire will not produce the sizzling and oily effect. Whether it is a rabbit or a mountain rat, there is not much fat. If it is grilled over a fire, it will easily turn black on the outside and bloody on the inside. The correct way is to stay a little away from the fire. Bake slowly, I think it will take more than an hour.

It doesn't even have salt, so how can it be delicious? But it's not unpalatable either. Rats and rabbits are both rodents, so there's not much difference in taste.

After eating the mountain rats, I went out to look for firewood. It would take a lot of firewood to keep the bonfire burning.

Due to the need to maintain the temperature in the cave, Wu Zhongyuan could not go too far. At three or four o'clock in the afternoon, the snow stopped. He took the opportunity to run to the top of the mountain and look east. The mountains and fields were all white with snow, and there was no shadow of a village.

In the middle of the night, the young woman let out a low moan. Wu Zhongyuan got up and went to check, and found that her breathing was much heavier, but she was a little feverish.

There was nothing else I could do at the moment but feed her some warm water.

This was the first time in his life that he took care of someone so wholeheartedly. The reason why he wanted to save her was not because she was a woman. Even if the other person was a man, he would save her. As for the reason and motivation, he couldn't explain clearly. Maybe it was because he was kind-hearted. Or maybe it's just because I have nothing to do.

Lack of sleep made Wu Zhongyuan groggy all the time. He didn't know when the young woman woke up. He didn't react until he heard a noise from behind. He got up and walked around behind the wall, only to see that the young woman had already struggled to sit up.

Seeing the young woman's brows furrowing, Wu Zhongyuan did not dare to get too close, "Your wound hasn't healed yet, so don't move."

The young woman did not answer immediately, but just frowned and looked at him. After a long time, she asked coldly, "How long have I been unconscious?"

"You fainted last night." Wu Zhongyuan said.

The young woman seemed a little anxious, but she didn't show it obviously.

"Are you thirsty?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.

The young woman tilted her head to look at him.

Wu Zhongyuan took the wooden cup that stored water and handed it to her.

The young woman raised her eyebrows and glanced at him, took the wooden cup and smelled it, then took a sip.

Wu Zhongyuan was a little embarrassed that the other party was so vigilant, "If I wanted to harm you, I would have done it long ago, and I wouldn't have waited until now."

The young woman glanced at him and said coldly, "If you really saved me, I will reward you."

"Haha, I don't want your reward," Wu Zhongyuan laughed dryly, "I'll get you some food."

To be fair, the other party's reaction made him a little chilled, but a good man will do his best. She can't move now, so he must provide her with food.

Just when I walked out of the cave to get the food buried in the snow, I suddenly saw a huge eagle flying quickly from the east, and it was now folding its wings and descending.

Seeing this, Wu Zhongyuan hurriedly ran back to the cave, "Oh no, your enemy is here."

Hearing Wu Zhongyuan's cry, the young woman struggled to stand up, but she was too weak and collapsed to the ground just as she stood up.

Wu Zhongyuan grabbed his bow and arrow and ran over, "He will come down soon. I will carry you on my back."

The young woman frowned and tilted her head, looking at him suspiciously.

"Hurry up, it's too late if you don't leave." Wu Zhongyuan urged.

As soon as Wu Zhongyuan finished speaking, a middle-aged man's proud laughter came from outside the cave, "Hahahaha, it's too late."

When Wu Zhongyuan heard the sound, he turned around and saw a middle-aged man wearing a purple cloak who had entered the cave. This man was of medium build, in his forties or fifties, with a Chinese-character face and a mustache under his chin.

Mustache looked like he was trying to catch a turtle in an urn in victory. After he came in, he was not in a hurry to take action. Instead, he approached the fire and stretched out his hand to warm himself up. "It's really cold today."

The young woman smiled coldly and did not answer.

Mustache added, "We overestimated you and kept chasing you eastward. Unexpectedly, you were hiding here. We chased you too far."

The young woman still didn't answer.

Mustache smiled and asked, "Tell me, what did the dragon's messenger tell you?"

The young woman was looking around for her dagger. After seeing her dagger being used as a hatchet by Wu Zhongyuan and placed next to the campfire, she gave him an accusing look.

"Don't be in a hurry, think about it slowly." Mustache looked like he was sure of victory.

Seeing that Mustache had no intention of taking action immediately, Wu Zhongyuan guessed that he was waiting for his companion. If another person arrived, the hope of escape would be even slimmer.

A decisive decision must be made at the critical moment. Thinking of this, Wu Zhongyuan suddenly looked outside the cave in shock.

The mustache was misled by this and instinctively turned his head to look back. Wu Zhongyuan took the opportunity to take out four arrows from his quiver and clamped them on his fingertips. He rotated his fingers to open the bow, and the four arrows were connected at the tail and shot out.

By the time the mustache came to his senses, the arrows were already close to him. The man reacted very quickly. He opened his bow from left to right and blocked the two arrows in front of him. However, the other two arrows also followed closely. He had no time to block and had to raise his head. Physical illness retreats.

"Three stars chasing the moon!?" the young woman exclaimed.

Wu Zhongyuan ignored the words, threw away his bow and arrows, sealed the acupoints one after another, used Feng Xing Shu to pick up the young woman and rushed out...
