Chapter 159: In Danger

While taking care of the fire, Wu Zhongyuan dried his clothes by the way, because he had been frozen outside for too long before, his hands and feet began to itch after he recovered.

The itch is tolerable, and the sleepiness can be endured, but the hunger cannot be controlled, and because I have to take care of the fire, I can't sleep, so I simply go out to hunt.

The Aryans had a special skill for finding and taming wild beasts, and the principle was to adjust their breathing, get rid of distractions in their minds, and put themselves into a state of selflessness similar to that of an old monk.

What is "me", I am the self-awareness of the five senses, enter the state of selflessness, the five senses will be in a dormant state of stagnation, at this time the innate sixth sense suppressed by the acquired five senses will awaken, the sixth sense is somewhat similar to intuition, but it is not exactly the same, after the sixth sense awakens, you can hear small sounds that you can't hear, you can see subtle scenes that you can't see, you can smell the faint smell that you can't smell, and you can also feel the living things that exist within a certain distance around you.

This feeling is a bit like the feeling of the unity of heaven and man in Taoism, and the distance of perception is not fixed, but varies from person to person, to be precise, it varies from person to person, because the higher the aura cultivation, the stronger the human body functions, and the more sensitive the senses.

It is easier to find a beast, it is relatively difficult to tame a beast, finding a beast depends on a low level of perception, and taming a beast depends on a high level of induction, a radio can receive many different channels, this is the search for the beast. And if you want to tame the beast, you have to 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, people's thinking is the most complex and fickle, one moment likes you, the next moment may hate you, there is no trace at all. Whereas, the emotions of animals are simple and stable, and do not change easily.

If you want to enter the state of selflessness, you don't have to close your eyes, but closing your eyes will breed distracting thoughts, this feeling is like a car coasting in neutral, and you don't need to turn off the engine, just take off the gear.

Although it was the first time to try, Wu Zhongyuan did not feel jerky, because this method of Sanhu had been completely transferred to him, including the skills to be used and the problems that need to be paid attention to.

He can't even reach the pale red aura now, and with his own not strong sixth sense, the range he can perceive is only more than ten meters, and he can only walk slowly while searching for the sense.

No matter what you do, there is a price to pay, and the same is true for induction search, using the sixth sense will consume a lot of people's energy, and it is easy to get tired, but fortunately, he didn't go far before he sensed a very obvious living thing.

The living thing was in the grass on the right, about ten meters away from him, and when he noticed the existence of the living thing, he did not immediately release the arrow, but concentrated on what the living thing was, and felt that this thing was the most difficult to control, the more deliberate, the more inaccurate, he felt that there should be a rabbit hidden in the grass, but after the shot, it was a mountain rat that was brought out.

People have to be good at introspection and summarization, the reason why there is a misjudgment this time, mainly because they are mixed with subjective assumptions while perceiving, to put it bluntly, in his opinion, the possibility of rabbits hiding here is high, and any judgment mixed with subjective assumptions is not objective.

This mountain mouse is not small, more than three pounds, but no matter how big it is, it is also a mouse, for the mouse, he instinctively repels it, but he really has no energy to do the search, and the bonfire can not be left unattended for a long time, and finally can only bring the mountain mouse back.

When he returned, he added wood to the campfire, and tried the young woman's snort, which was faint but steady. I touched her hand again, it's okay, it's not very cold, if it's cold, it's not optimistic.

Then he began to clean up the mountain rats, disemboweled, cut off the head and tail, scrubbed them clean with the snow outside the cave, and inserted sticks, but this thing was really hateful, and he was not hungry to that extent at the moment, and after hesitation, he did not immediately roast it, and sent 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, but has to drink hot water, the fire is ready-made, the snow is also ready-made, but there is no container for boiling water, after thinking about it, he went out and cut down a trunk with the thickness of the mouth of the bowl, hollowed out the middle with a dagger snatched by the day, and filled it with snow to roast on the fire, this method can also heat the water, but it is impossible to boil, and the hot water that has been boiled has the smell of wood.

People who faint to death can't swallow, feed the water little by little, feed her in a hurry, toss for a long time, and finally feed half a bowl.

At this time, it should be three or four o'clock in the morning, Wu Zhongyuan was sleepy, physically and mentally exhausted, and he really couldn't hold on, but he was afraid that the temperature in the cave would drop if the bonfire was extinguished, so he piled up the firewood from the bonfire to the place where he was lying, about one meter long, and after the bonfire burned, he would be roasted awake.

It was not long before he was awakened by the scalding, and now it was dark outside, and the sky began to fall again, and after packing up the fire, he went to try the young woman's snort again, and there was no sign of improvement, and the breathing seemed to be weaker.

After boiling the hot water, he picked up the young woman again and tried to feed her, but when he reached out, he found that the young woman's back was cold, and although he had been warming up the cave, he had ignored that the young woman had been lying on the cold ground all along.

There was nothing to lay for her in the cave, so she had no choice but to take off her clothes and lay them for her, but he only had this one set of clothes, and when she laid them out, she would be so cold that she couldn't stand it, and she had no choice but to go out to find branches and hay, and the hay was not easy to find, most of them were wet with snow, and he didn't do anything else in the morning, so he was busy drying grass and making beds.

Not only was a thick grass bed laid, but also branches were piled up to make a low wall to block the wind, and the hole in the cave was too big for the cold wind to blow directly to her.

If you have something to do, you won't be cranky, although Wu Zhongyuan is busy, he is no longer as empty as yesterday, even if he is depressed, he always has to accept reality, and he can't be immersed in nostalgia and memories of modernity, no matter how beautiful modern it is, he can't go back.

The last meal he ate was yesterday's breakfast, and now he was hungry with his chest against his back, and he wanted to roast the mouse, but after thinking about it, he was reluctant to do it, what if he couldn't find other food, he had to go out and go around again.

This time his luck was better, he didn't have to look for it deliberately, and he didn't go far before he met a Hai Dongqing, 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 and money, and he had to catch the uneaten rabbit and run.

Hai Dongqing is not dead, he is still fluttering, Wu Zhongyuan picked up the half of the rabbit first, the eagle has a habit of eating, he likes to eat the offal first, and he doesn't eat much meat.

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

Seeing this small bamboo tube, he reacted, this Hai Dongqing was artificially domesticated to transmit messages.

When Hai Dongqing was completely dead, he untied the bamboo tube, pulled out the wooden stopper, and took out the cloth roll inside, there was no text on the cloth roll, only three red crosses.

Most of the things Wu Tai knew knew to him, these three symbols were the code words of the bear clan, they were summoning the purple qi masters stationed abroad to go to the capital, the number of crosses represented the urgency, and the three crosses were the most, indicating that the situation was the most urgent.

After looking at the strip of cloth, his first reaction was whether the old nest of the bear clan was taken to someone, but after thinking about it, this possibility is not very likely, although the bear clan has now declined, but as the saying goes, there are still three catties of nails in the rotten ship, whether it is the cow clan or the bird clan, it is impossible to destroy the bear clan without being damaged.

In addition, the bear clan is located in the middle of the two clans, the west is the cow clan, the east is the bird clan, the lips are dead and the teeth are cold, everyone understands the truth of the other, whoever destroys the bear clan first, who will suffer losses, and the other party will take the opportunity to send troops to reap the benefits of the fisherman.

The bear clan is now a character who is angry from left and right, and everyone bullies it, but unless one of the bird clan and the cow clan has the strength of one or two, no one will destroy the bear clan first and let others take advantage of it for nothing.

Knowing that there was such a thing, he didn't care too much, he went back with Hai Dongqing and the rabbit, he has no ability to change anything now, and if he knows, he knows it in vain, just like ordinary people watch the news every day and care about major national affairs, in fact, if they know, they know in vain, nothing can be changed, and national affairs are handled by people in high positions.

After a trip, he dragged some firewood back by the way, and he picked up all the dry firewood nearby, but fortunately, after the fire burned, the wet wood could also be burned.

The rabbit was skinned, and Hai Dongqing was plucked, but he didn't want to eat it, but took out the mountain rat and roasted it.

Roast food with fire, roast can not have the effect of sizzling oil, whether it is a rabbit or a mouse, the fat is not much, it is easy to roast on the fire on the outside, black paste on the outside, bloody inside, the correct way is to be a little away from the fire, bake slowly, want to bake for more than an hour.

There is not even salt, how can it be delicious, but it is not very difficult to eat, mice and rabbits are rodents, and the taste is not much different.

After eating the mountain rats, they went out to look for firewood, and it took a lot of firewood to keep the campfire burning.

Because of 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 to look east, the snow in the mountains and fields was white, and there was no shadow of the village.

In the middle of the night, the young woman let out a low noise*, and Wu Zhongyuan got up to check, and found that her breath was a lot heavier, but she had a fever.

There was nothing else to do at the moment, so I could only feed her some warm water.

It's the first time in his life that he takes care of a person so dedicatedly, and the reason why he wants to save her is not because she is a woman, even if the other party is a man, he will save it, as for the reason and motive, he can't say clearly, maybe it's because he is kind by nature, or maybe it's just because he is idle.

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

Seeing the young woman's brows furrowed, Wu Zhongyuan didn't dare to get too close, "Your wound hasn't healed yet, don't move." ”

The young woman didn't answer immediately, just frowned and looked at him, and after a long time, asked coldly, "How long have I been in a coma?"

"You fainted last night. Wu Zhongyuan said.

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

"Are you thirsty?" asked Wu Zhongyuan.

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 an eyebrow at him, took the wooden cup and sniffed it, and then took a sip.

The other party was so vigilant that Wu Zhongyuan was a little embarrassed, "If I want to harm you, I will do it a long time ago, and I won't wait until now." ”

The young woman glanced at him and said coldly, "If it was really you who saved me, I would reward you." ”

"Hehe, I don't want your reward," Wu Zhongyuan laughed dryly, "I'll go get you something to eat." ”

In all fairness, the other party's reaction was a little chilling to him, but the good guy did it to the end, she couldn't move around now, and she had to provide her with food.

He had just come out of the cave to get food buried in the snow, when he suddenly noticed a huge eagle flying from the east, and was now gathering its wings and falling.

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

Hearing Wu Zhongyuan's shout, the young woman struggled to stand up, but she was so weak that she just stood up and collapsed to the ground.

Wu Zhongyuan grabbed his bow and ran over, "He's coming down soon, I'll carry you away." ”

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

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

As soon as Wu Zhongyuan's words fell, a middle-aged man's smug laughter came from outside the cave, "Hahahaha, it's too late." ”

Wu Zhongyuan turned around when he heard the sound, and saw that a middle-aged man wearing a purple cloak had already walked into the cave, this person was of medium height, forty or fifty years old, with a Chinese character face, and a mustache under his chin.

The mustache had a triumphant posture of catching a turtle in an urn, and after coming in, he was not in a hurry to move, but approached the fire and stretched out his hand to roast the fire, "It's really cold this day." ”

The young woman smiled coldly and did not answer.

The mustache said again, "We overestimated you, and we have been chasing east, but I didn't expect you to hide here, we chased over." ”

The young woman still did not answer.

The mustache smiled and asked, "Tell me, what did the envoys of the dragon tell you?"

The young woman was looking around for her short sword at this time, and after seeing her short sword placed next to the bonfire as a wood knife by Wu Zhongyuan, she threw a blame look at him.

"Don't rush, you think about it slowly. The mustache had a look of victory.

Seeing that the mustache did not mean to do it immediately, Wu Zhongyuan guessed that he was waiting for his companion, and if another person came, the hope of escaping would be even more slim.

At the critical moment, you must make a decision immediately, thinking of this, Wu Zhongyuan suddenly looked out of the cave in astonishment.

The mustache was misled by it, instinctively turned his head to look back, Wu Zhongyuan took the opportunity to pull out four arrows from the quiver and clamped them between his fingertips, twisted his fingers to open the bow, and the four arrows were connected end to end and shot out.

When the mustache reacted, the arrows were already close, this person reacted very quickly, opened the bow left and right, and flew the two arrows in front of him, but the other two arrows also followed, he had no time to block, so he had to retreat on his back.

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

Wu Zhongyuan couldn't answer, threw away the bow and arrows to seal the acupoints one after another, and used the wind technique to pick up the young woman and rush out......
