Fortunately, there was a light source from the torch, so Chen Chao didn't choose to look back, but closed his eyes slightly.
The area that the torch can illuminate is limited, but the distance is so close, Super Chen still clearly saw a giant wolf with its bloody mouth open right behind him!
Just waiting for myself to turn around, "Gaba," swallowed the head and neck without chewing.
Before he had time to think about it, Chen Chao quickly switched the positions of the stone ax and the torch, and the torch was pushed back first.
The giant wolf who didn't get the head but ate a lot of fire shook his head, and threw the torch out fiercely, while Chen Chao took advantage of the last bit of light to hold the stone ax with both hands, backhanded from bottom to top, Chopped on the giant wolf's throat.
Then he quickly pulled out the stone ax and slashed at the claws that the giant wolf had swept out. The torch was finally extinguished, and Chao Chen's vision was completely dark.
In the darkness, Super Chen could only hear the heavy breathing of the giant wolf. He carefully touched the tree trunk behind him and listened carefully to the movement of the giant wolf.
He was afraid that the giant wolf would not be finished with the ax just now, so he groped and slashed several times, but he didn't know where he hit. He could only hear the sound of the ax piercing into the flesh.
After waiting for a while, when there was no more movement, Chen Chao fumbled in the rattan basket for the spare torches and the spare wood needed for drilling for fire.
Panting heavily, he untied the rattan basket in the dark, squatted on the ground and was about to start making fire. Before the fire started, he neither dared to rest immediately, nor dared to run around.
I was worried that if I slackened my enthusiasm all of a sudden, something else would kill me. Also worry about boa constrictors or other large animals that might be watching in the dark and give yourself another shot.
Hearing the crackling sound of the torch, Chen Chao also sat down on the ground. It doesn't matter whether there will be any slimy and wet poisonous snakes, after the high tension just now, he can't lift a little bit of strength now.
Stretching out his hand to untie the pig urine bubble at his waist, Chen Chaolian first drank a few sips of water, stuffed bacon in his mouth indiscriminately, and drank a few more sips of water, only then did he feel relieved a bit.
He crawled over and looked at the wolf corpse not far away. He had almost chopped off the entire head of the giant wolf, leaving only a small piece of skin attached to the neck. Half of the claws were also chopped off by myself. It should be that they wanted to fight back at the beginning, but they were randomly cut off by themselves with an axe.
Chen Chao secretly thought, it's dangerous.
After recovering some strength, Chen Chao ran out of the forest with two rattan baskets on his back and the wolf corpse was no longer needed.
Fortunately, there was no danger in the following journey, and the two-in-one torch is also very durable. It is also due to the fact that this forest is not as big as imagined. Chen Chao finally walked out of the forest after the second torch burned out. A dark forest.
After running out of the dark forest, Chen Chao breathed a sigh of relief. He put the extinguished torch on the ground, took out the pig urine foam, shook it, and found that there was no water in it.
Looking at the sky, the sun has already slanted to the west. It seems that today we will not be able to reach our destination. But it's okay, you can make some preparations here now.
Chen Chao first searched for nearby water sources, and after walking about a kilometer, he found a small river, which is only about ten kilometers away from the small grassland on the map.
A person can walk about 50 kilometers a day, which is an ideal situation, but it must also take into account possible emergencies, including physical exertion and so on.
Today I spent too much time in the first forest, making torches in the early stage and various emergencies later, etc., but if I can really catch the wild horse, the time consumed now is nothing.
Generally, a good horse can walk, run and rest for 270-350 miles a day, which is 140-170 kilometers. But Xian Tribe is only 200 kilometers away from Tianyuan Tribe, even if you ride slowly, you can get there in a day and a half. And if you have horses, you can transport more things, manpower is limited after all.
Chen Chao went to the small river and put down all the rattan baskets first, then cooked a pot of bacon and cabbage porridge. But after such a large amount of exercise, it is best to eat dry rice. But Xiao Shitou has already woken up once today, and he might wake up again later. He had been hungry for too long, and he could only be fed rice soup all the time before, and he didn't get a good supplement at all.
It just so happened that I woke up today, so I should be able to eat some porridge with soup. Chao Chen deliberately tore the bacon into pieces, as did the cabbage, trying to tear it into pieces so that it would be easier to swallow when eating stones.
Sure enough, before the bacon porridge was cooked, Shi Shi woke up. He opened his eyes wide and looked at the man in front of him, and then at the sunset in the sky, as if he hadn't realized where he was now.
However, the porridge with bacon and cabbage, which was bubbling and smelling, attracted him. He stared at the steaming clay pot without blinking, and the red flames under the pot. sun.
Chen Chao carried him out of the rattan basket and put him on the ground, then took off his own animal skin and wrapped it around his body. After the bacon porridge was cooked, he first poured out some rice soup, cooled it down and fed it to Xiao Shitou.
After the porridge in the pot was warmed up, he poured two small bowls for Xiaoshi. He had just woken up, and he had been living on rice soup before, so he couldn't eat too much at once.
There are several jujube trees and pomegranate trees not far from the small river.
Pomegranate is that kind of small pomegranate tree, the kind that can hold five or six in one palm. It is cyan before it is ripe, and it turns yellow when it is mature. It can still be seen on the edge of ponds in many rural areas.
After finishing the bacon and cabbage porridge, Chen Chao felt that he was still not full, so he cooked another pot of bacon and cabbage dry rice for himself before going to the pond to pick fruits and small pomegranates.
After picking a few, wash them in water and eat them directly in your mouth. Little Shitou couldn't eat these things yet, but Super Chen still pinched a small amount and put it in his mouth, letting him sip it and taste it.
Early the next morning, Super Chen picked a bunch of fruits and put them in the rattan basket. Since the little stone has already woken up, the rattan basket carried on the front can free up a lot of space, and there are also a lot of Chinese cabbage and bacon that I ate recently, and there are also some spaces for small pomegranates and dates.
With the pig urine foam filled with water, Chen Chao took the little stone and set off, but the little stone could not go too far, so he walked for a while, and then Chen Chao put him on his neck and sat for a while .
After walking for about five or six kilometers, I came to the second forest I was aiming for. This forest is obviously much more normal, because there is a small river nearby, so the biological chain here is relatively complete.
Walking in the woods, you can see small squirrels and rabbits scurrying past from time to time, and even a few lynxes moving alone, and monkeys swinging around the trees. I have not seen any larger ones yet. animal.
Seeing vines entwined on trees or shrubs, Chen Chao carefully collected them, and if possible, collected as many large stones as possible.
After walking out of the forest, continue to the northeast, and the terrain here is already very flat. The trees are gradually becoming scarce, and you can only see a tree after walking a long distance, and it is replaced by a large area of grass and scattered bushes.
From a distance, you can see a round lake in the middle of the grassland, and a small group of wild horses are drinking water leisurely by the lake. This should be the small group of wild horses that the electronic voice said. In addition to the wild horses, Chen Chao also saw a few fluffy grass mud horses and sheep, and a few wild donkeys, but they were not as many as the herd of small wild horses.
In addition, there are various small creatures, and the creatures that appear the most are groundhogs in groups.
They often stand up straight and stand guard on the grass, watching the enemy's situation everywhere. When they see eagles circling in the sky, or if there is a slight disturbance, they will immediately go into the hole.
But there are also those who are not afraid of eagles at all, seeing a black shadow above them, and even straighten up and yell at the eagle, no, the groundhog will be whining and mourning in a short while.
In addition, there are gray-haired hares that run fast, which should be similar to the ones Chao Chen saw in the forest. Rabbits are obviously much more stupid. After the eagles captured several rabbits, they scattered away.
Originally, he wanted to make a horse pole, but the things needed to make a horse pole are more troublesome. Under the current conditions, he was basically excluded by the first one. The sling might not be of much use, but he'd collected some materials, which was better than nothing.
Whether it is the horse pole, the sling, or even the straw rope around the waist, it is not the main combat force this time.
Looking at the two kinds of fruits in the rattan basket, Chen Chao couldn't help laughing out loud when he thought of his plan.
