The guy sitting on the ground drank Zhang Tie's water bottle without politeness. Zhang Tie didn't care. Looking at the guy gasping for air after drinking the water, Zhang Tie discovered that this guy He seemed to be a little younger than he had just guessed, but the dirt on his face and the beard that hadn't been shaved for several days made him look a few years older, probably in his early twenties.
When taking the empty kettle, Zhang Tie asked, "Can you have something to eat now? This should help you regain your strength as soon as possible!"
The guy nodded and reached out to touch himself. When he saw the guy taking out a piece of compressed dry food from a small leather bag around his waist, Zhang Tie stopped him, "You'd better eat mine. The calories in compressed dry food." It’s not high, that thing has no effect on eating meat, can you sit up alone now?”
The guy nodded, put his hands on the ground, and struggled to sit up. The action of sitting up caused his legs caught in the animal trap to twitch, and the guy's forehead suddenly became thin again. A thin layer of cold sweat broke out, but he still gritted his teeth and remained silent.
Seeing that this guy had already gritted his teeth and sat up, Zhang Tie nodded secretly. A guy who can run around alone in the Wild Wolf Valley in the middle of the night is indeed a bit tough.
"Sit down and I'll get you something to eat!" Zhang Tie turned around and walked towards the bamboo food cage carrying the giant wolf meat jerky on his back. When Zhang Tie turned around, the man sitting on the ground suddenly sharpened his eyes. He quickly glanced at the dagger thrown by Zhang Tie, and then quickly looked at him with a hint of scrutiny and vigilance. He looked Zhang Tie over. Zhang Tie's age and height. His physique, clothes, weapons, and the backpack carrying a sleeping bag, everything on Zhang Tie's body did not escape the man's eyes. After taking all these things into his eyes, the man blinked blink. He seemed to have thought of something, and then breathed a subtle sigh of relief, and the vigilance and scrutiny in his eyes disappeared.
Zhang Tie, who turned around to get the food, had no idea that the man behind him had already had many thoughts running through his mind just now.
The giant wolf's dried meat is packed in a schoolbag-sized food box made of bamboo that can be carried by Zhang Tie around his waist. This food box is also one of the necessary equipment for outdoor survival trials. It is made by The girls at Wild Wolf Castle weaved bamboo and reed strips, which worked very well, although Zhang Tie could enter and leave the Black Iron Castle at any time. But Zhang Tie doesn't want to look too special or different, so Zhang Tie still carries some basic equipment and food with him, even in the wild, if it's not necessary. Zhang Tie also did not want to enter and leave the Black Iron Castle at will, which would increase the risk of exposing his biggest secret. Moreover, Zhang Tie felt that carrying these things was a kind of exercise for himself.
Zhang Tie brought over a giant wolf's smoked meat jerky, and the man was not picky or polite. I took it and ate it all, and then finished the dried meat. After resting for a few more minutes, the man's spirit and state obviously improved a lot.
"Thank you, you saved my life this time. If it weren't for you, it would be difficult for me to survive here until tomorrow!" Although he was still a little weak, the man looked at Zhang Tie seriously with a pair of light blue eyes. "Please allow me to know the name of my savior!"
"My name is Zhang Tie!"
"Students who are on trial in Wild Wolf Valley?"
"Yes!" Zhang Tie glanced at this guy curiously. He didn't think it was strange that this guy knew his identity as a trial student. Now there are trial students everywhere in the Wild Wolf Valley. This is not a secret. "What's your name again?"
"My name is Salvi!"
"There are not many people as unlucky as you!" Zhang Tie looked at the animal trap on Salvi's foot, "How are you? Have you regained some strength now? I can't open this thing by myself. If I do, If you let go and close the animal trap again after opening it, you will suffer the consequences again. It seems that you have already tried it yourself... "
A hint of embarrassment appeared on Salvi's pale face, "This thing probably requires level five strength to open. I'm still a little short of it...". Salvi himself had tried it twice last night, but the result was the same as what Zhang Tie said. If he didn't have enough strength to forcefully pull this thing away and then let go, it would have no effect at all except making himself suffer twice more.
"There are too many pioneers coming to the Crescent Grassland to hunt golden wolves and pick gooseneck grass. I don't know who set up the animal trap here!" Zhang Tie looked at Salvi sympathetically, "You too Are you here to hunt golden wolves and pick gooseneck grass? Why did you come to the Wild Wolf Valley? There are no golden wolves and gooseneck grass here... "
"It's dark, and I'm a little unfamiliar with the surrounding terrain..." Salvi, who was slightly stunned, replied following Zhang Tie's tone.
Zhang Tie didn't doubt that if it weren't for these two things, why would any pioneer be willing to wander around Wild Wolf Valley and Crescent Grassland for no reason, picking up wolf droppings? Bruce said that many pioneers have come to the Crescent Prairie recently, and Salvi is probably one of those pioneers. Based on Zhang Tie's life experience, he did not realize that in the sentence just now, Salvi actually avoided his first question intentionally or unintentionally. Zhang Tie only thought that Salvi acquiesced.
After resting for a few more minutes, some color returned to Salvi's face, and then Salvi nodded to Zhang Tie, indicating that he was ready.
"You really don't need to take a rest?" Zhang Tie asked worriedly.
"No, it should be fine if the two of us come together this time..."
"Okay, let's try to succeed once..."
There are a row of round holes on the two zigzag-shaped bite steel bars of the animal trap. This design is not only to reduce the weight of the animal trap, but also to make it easier for people to open the animal trap. Since Salvi has said that there is no Question, Zhang Tie didn't say anything more. Zhang Tie picked up the animal trap with his hands, turned Salvi's feet in a different direction, and raised his knees so that the two of them could use force at the same time. When the two people's fingers were inserted into the round holes on the two zigzag-shaped bite steel bars of the animal trap, the two people looked at each other. They nodded together.
"I'll count one, two, three, let's come together..." Zhang Tie said.
Salvi nodded. Take a deep breath.
"One...two...three...get up"
The two people used all their strength together, and the basin-sized animal trap began to fully open under the strength of the two people, and the saw teeth biting Salvi's leg also began to leave Salvi's calf.
The moment the saw teeth of the animal trap were pulled out from the wound on Salvi's calf, Zhang Tie felt Salvi's body tremble. The strength of Salvi's hand weakened, and the bite of the animal trap on his hand However, his strength suddenly sank, and Zhang Tie quickly shouted, "Hold it. Try harder..."
Zhang Tie's face turned red, but Salvi's face became paler. Beads of sweat appeared on the foreheads of both of them at the same time. The huge mouth of the beast trap slowly opened again, and the angle gradually became wider.
"It's now..." When Salvi's calf could be completely pulled out of the animal trap, Zhang Tie didn't need to remind him to use his last strength. Salvi's legs retracted, and he was immediately freed from the huge mouth of the animal trap. Then the two of them released their hands almost at the same time, and the animal trap clicked again, and they bit together tightly again. .
In just a moment, the two people sat on the ground. We gasped loudly together, the bite force on this animal trap is really too strong...
As soon as the trap left Salvi's calf, the wound torn open by the saw teeth began to bleed again, but this blood was the same color. It was already dark, Zhang Tie tore open a section of Salvi's pants. He found that the lower half of Salvi's calf was swollen like a carrot and was shiny black. Zhang Tie poked it with his finger and found that Salvi had no reaction at all. Salvi also noticed this situation and tried it himself. , and found that he could no longer feel any pain in the calf below the wound of the animal trap. He naturally knew what this meant, and his face couldn't help but change tragically again.
"If your calf is not dealt with quickly, the back may be sawed off..." Zhang Tie said solemnly to Salvi.
"You will handle it..." A glimmer of light shone in Salvi's eyes, and he asked Zhang Tie eagerly.
"I heard someone say once before that you will encounter broken bones and wounds during the treatment, and it may be very painful. I don't know if you can bear it..."
"Come on..." Salvi gritted his teeth.
"Well, you have to hold back. At this time, what is more important than bandaging the wound is to circulate the blood in the upper and lower parts of the wound first and let the bad blood flow out. Otherwise, the wound may become completely necrotic. ..." Zhang Tie didn't have much confidence. Tang De once told him that this was the only way when there was no other way. But it was his first time to do it, and Zhang Tie didn't have much experience.
Salvi nodded seriously, so Zhang Tie pinched Salvi's calf just below the knee with both hands, and squeezed it toward the wound as if milking a cow...
With just a slight exertion on Zhang Tie's hand, Salvi's eyes suddenly bulged, and after a scream, he yelled, "Wait a moment..."
Zhang Tie looked at him and stopped...
Salvi gasped violently and said slightly embarrassedly, "Can you find a stick for me to bite..."
Thirty seconds later, Salvi had a stick that Zhang Tie found in his mouth. Seeing that Salvi was ready this time, he nodded, and Zhang Tie continued to move his hand.
This time, Salvi did not scream anymore, but just like a fish that was thrown on a stone to be exposed in the sun, his whole body straightened up and began to sway and twitch.
Anyway, it’s not him who hurts. Even if it hurts like this twice, it won’t kill him. Zhang Tie was still a little hesitant at first, but later on, his movements became more and more agile and his strength became stronger. In less than a few minutes, Salvi The color of the blood flowing from the upper part of the calf wound has begun to return to normal, and Salvi's whole body really looks like he has just been fished out of the water, soaked with sweat.
"Are you okay?" Salvi, who felt that Zhang Tie had stopped, and who just felt like he had come back from hell, asked Zhang Tie feebly.
"Okay..." Zhang Tie clapped his hands, and a smile of relief appeared on Salvi's face.
"The preparations have been completed, and now we are about to officially start..." After Zhang Tiezheng finished speaking, he noticed that Salvi rolled his eyes and fell backwards, "Ah, why did you faint..."
Your nerves are too fragile! Zhang Tie shook his head. Still minding his own business, he began to help Salvi regain the feeling in his calf. The first step was to remove the dirty blood from the calf. Only by removing the dirty blood, fresh blood could flow in. Salvi's Only then can the calf regain its senses and be preserved. What the fresh blood brings is fresh energy and nutrients that can rejuvenate the calf muscles and nerves...
The dirty blood can be removed by massaging and milking, but Salvi's wound from the animal trap is on the top and his calf is on the bottom. The dirty blood will not flow, just like a pool of stagnant water. After one night, it may It has already condensed in the blood vessels of the calf, and it will be more difficult to remove it from the bottom up. Thinking of Tang De's teachings, Zhang Tie took out a dagger and placed it on Salvi's calf, following the muscle fibers on the calf. In the direction of Zhang Tie, he opened two moderately deep wounds, and then massaged and squeezed Salvi's calf hard. With Zhang Tie's efforts, the black blood began to draw new wounds from Salvi's calf. There was constant bleeding from the wound.
The squeezed out dirty blood was black at first, then purple-black, and then purple-red. Slowly, it began to return to its normal red color, and Salvina's black and shiny calf, which was as swollen as a radish, passed by After Zhang Tie's troubles, after the dirty blood was completely eliminated, the swelling slowly disappeared, and then the color slowly returned to normal.
At the end, Zhang Tie took out the golden sore medicine he brought and applied it on the wound on Salvi's calf. The medicine was so strong that Salvi woke up faintly. As soon as Salvi opened his eyes after waking up, He saw Zhang Tie working on the wound on his foot, and there was a slight pain in the lower part of the calf that had been unconscious. Salvi almost shed tears. For the first time, he discovered that it was a wonderful thing to feel pain.
…
Twenty minutes later, Zhang Tie was on the road again, but compared with an hour ago, Zhang Tie had an extra companion at this moment - the unlucky Salvi.
Salvi was weak and embarrassed, tapping one foot, holding a branch that Zhang Tie found for him with one hand, and holding Zhang Tie's neck with one hand. The two of them just walked slowly toward the Wild Wolf Valley and Xinjiang. Walking to the junction of the Crescent Grassland, Salvi said that he still had a few companions in the Wild Wolf Valley near the Crescent Grassland, and Zhang Tie just had to send him there to join his companions.
Since everyone had been saved, Zhang Tie naturally couldn't leave Salvi alone at this time, who was still unable to move freely. In the spirit of a good man who will do his best to the end and send Buddha to the West, Zhang Tie gritted his teeth and carried on his back again. After collecting all his luggage, he agreed to Salvi and send him to join his companions. According to Salvi, the destination of his companions was only three to five years away from the destination he chose. kilometer.
As long as Salvi is sent there, it won't take long for him to come back. With this in mind, Zhang Tie decided to get familiar with the surrounding terrain.
