Chapter 233: Prisoner Daily, Jacques Who Wants to Sleep
It's the fifth day!
Jacques walked up and down, his shoulders swaying up and down sharply, his body swaying one high and one low.
One of his legs was wounded and he was smashed with a stick by a rebel.
Reason?
The day after he woke up, while resting on the side of the road, a rebel came up behind him and swung his stick and smashed it on his head for no apparent reason.
However, the man underestimated Jacques' reflexes, and he took a step forward to get out of the way, but was immediately knocked down with a kick and a blow to the left calf.
Luckily, the man wasn't a shapeshifter, and he wasn't strong enough to break Jacques' leg.
And Jacques took advantage of his stunned moment to drag his injured leg and hide in the captive, and as a result, a sneak attack turned into a chase.
At this time, the sticker threw a rat bogey, and did not dare to dance the stick, for fear of hurting the other captives, and was dragged by Jacques for half a minute while chasing and fleeing.
A small leader on horseback in the rebels, seeing the confusion of the captives, shouted that he had stopped the man with the big stick, otherwise Jacques would have been paralyzed by the wooden flail, and would have opened the door and hid in.
The two rebels said something that Jacques didn't understand, and the big stick left in a daze, leaving Jacques who couldn't figure out the situation the whole time.
Obviously, the big stick was to want Jacques's life, probably he didn't expect this young man to be a shaper, even if he was limited to the source energy, it was not something he could easily achieve.
Jacques had carefully observed that the one who wielded the stick was not in charge of their captives, except when he was stationed in the camp, he should have been at the forefront of the group at all times.
This sneak attack made Jacques cautious every day for the next two days, and he could be vigilant, and if there was any trouble, he would open the spatial rift and escape. If Mark is by his side, he will take him, and if he is not there, Jacques will have to save himself first. The plan to save Vanessa had to be arranged separately, so Jacques would rather take the risk than flee until the end of the day.
For five days after waking up, Jacques was able to see Vanessa once a day while eating, and she also found that she was able to move around on her own, and made a gesture of bending her arms and clenching her fists to cheer Jacques up.
Yes, the captives were allowed to eat only once a day.
At night, the prisoners, such as Jacques and Marc, were confined to the middle of the makeshift camp, and when they were trapped, they lay on the ground. The important captives in the carriage also had a makeshift tent to withstand the low temperatures of the spring night and the early morning dew.
However, after being attacked, Jacques did not dare to sleep easily, and even when he rested, he forced himself to maintain a subtle awareness of his surroundings.
The first night of tossing and turning made Jacques exhausted, and his injuries were already unhealed, and the lack of sleep for a night made him physically and mentally exhausted.
No way, now it's obvious that someone wants to harm him, if it doesn't work once, there will definitely be a second time.
After a hard day, and after camping again, Jacques quickly finished his dry bread, filled a large basin with water, and asked Mark to help him stay on duty for two or three hours, so that he could hurry up and regain his energy.
It was still early, and Mark was willing to help, and he stayed up until midnight when he couldn't hold it anymore and woke up Jacques.
So Jacques entered the period of boredom and stargazing again, Fat Orange was not around, the contact between the two sides had not been restored, and he had not been alone like this for several years.
In the past, there was always Fat Orange talking to him, he could finish everything he had experienced in the day, he would finish talking about everything he wanted to complain about, and he would tell Jacques about the books he had read, and Jacques could keep talking as long as Jacques wanted to.
Because the fat orange does not sleep, and it just has to sleep for a short time every day, in the sleep, in addition to not seeing, it knows the subtle changes around it well, and it can wake up at any time.
Jacques also asked Fat Orange how to do it, and he talked a lot about it, but unfortunately Jacques tried hard, and either he really fell asleep, or he couldn't rest even when he closed his eyes.
- Why don't I try again?
Jacques is now in great need of Fat Orange's false sleep skills.
The principle is very simple, when the mind and body are resting, a part of the mental power is separated to sense the source energy particles in the surrounding environment, and the abnormal changes in the source energy particles are used to judge what is happening.
But the most difficult point is also in the spiritual power, the transcendent releases the source energy technique, and the spiritual power is needed to feel the fluctuations of the source energy around them, and it is precisely the spiritual power that is the most difficult to exercise.
There is only one way to improve spiritual power in the existing cultivation system, and that is to hone spiritual power through the use of source energy techniques, but the effect is minimal.
Except for those who are gifted with more mental power than ordinary people, there are generally only two opportunities to greatly improve their mental power.
Respectively, to become transcendent and to be promoted to the level of plasticity, due to the physical reaching a new level, the mental power will be significantly improved. These two ascensions Jacques have been experienced, and they have really benefited a lot.
Jacques's spiritual power has been identified by Fat Orange, which is a few points higher than that of ordinary people, and he can feel the particle transformation of source energy in the stage of awakening, and the range of detecting source energy fluctuations is also larger than that of ordinary people.
However, he could only barely feel the source energy of the granularity when he concentrated his full strength. On the one hand, he wanted to empty his mind and let his body and mind rest fully, and on the other hand, he had to use his mental power to detect the surrounding source energy particles, which Jacques tried, but could not do.
Fat Tangerine, on the other hand, has no skills or methods, and for it, mental power control is already as natural as breathing.
Anyway, being idle is idle, and using mental power will not stimulate the wooden flail to grow paralyzing spikes, so Jacques simply tries to make mental power operate independently.
It's easy to relax your body, but how to keep your mind active while still being mentally active, Jacques couldn't do it all night.
It's the fifth day!
Jacques has been lying on the ground for two consecutive nights trying to operate his mental power independently, the first two nights have been troublesome for Mark to help keep watch in the first half of the night.
This time Jacques limped to the dry bread, walked over to Mark, and devoured it, intending to fall asleep and rest as soon as he was done.
Mark was also tired, slept less, and had to travel dozens of miles every day, which didn't affect him much, but the captive life for several days on end, and the panic of an uncertain future, made him more and more stressed.
Jacques comforted him, "Don't worry, as long as I have a chance to contact Vanessa, I will have a way to get the three of us to escape." And Marianne, they're coming to our rescue. Remember what I told you, and if I told you to run with me, you should ......."
Mark said, "Run with you through the glowing door! I remember, you have to talk to me several times a day." ”
Jacques raised his hand with the wooden flail and said, "I'm probably going to be paralyzed by this thing, and if I don't get in in time, remember to drag me and Vanessa in." ”
Mark said, "I've never heard of what you said about the Source Energy Technique, and I hope to succeed, but I'm worried that when we get to our destination, it may be even harder for us to get in touch with Vanessa." What are you going to do then?"
Jacques replied, "So I'm waiting for Marianne and them, and when they arrive, and we have a much better chance of joining in, I'll go to bed first, and call me in three hours." Thank you, Mark."
