Chapter 20: Encountering the Bear

Ling Zikai was frightened and hurriedly let go of his hand.

But the body of the big black snake had wrapped itself around his arm, and the force of the twisting force almost broke his arm. At the same time, a fishy smell rushed in, and a huge snake head hung from the tree pole above his head, opened its bloody mouth, and devoured his head.

In the midst of the crisis, Ling Zikai injected the ancestral god energy into his arm, resisting the entanglement of the big black snake, and on the other hand, he used the ancestral god consciousness to invade the head of the black snake, shouting: "Beast, dare you hurt me!"

I don't know if it was the ancestral god's energy or consciousness that played a role, the black snake slightly loosened the body that was wrapped around Ling Zikai's arm. Taking this opportunity, Ling Zikai hurriedly pulled out his arm and punched at the black snake's head at the same time.

The big black snake was also able to do it, and when Ling Zikai's fist hit, it flashed its head to the side. But the ancestral god's energy was so powerful, the strong wind that emanated alone shook the upper half of the black snake's body and hit the trunk of a tree.

The big black snake in pain seemed to feel that the human in front of him was a little uncomfortable, and he had the idea of retreating, twisting his body and swimming out.

At this moment, there was a sound of breaking the air above the forest, and a big black shadow fell from the sky, and when it swept past the big black snake, it stretched out its claws and grabbed the body of the snake more than three meters long in the air, and then slid a beautiful arc and rushed towards the forest sky.

Because the black shadow appeared a little abruptly, coupled with the extremely fast speed, Ling Zikai couldn't see what it was, and vaguely recognized that it was a bird of prey, with its wings spread out more than three meters wide, and he didn't know if it was an eagle or an eagle.

After experiencing the thrilling scene just now, Ling Zikai became more cautious in the next trip.

After traveling five or six miles, he unexpectedly found a extinguished bonfire in a forest.

Ling Zikai stepped forward and touched the fire, there was still a bit of residual warmth, it should be left after the burning embers last night.

Could it be that the cuckoo rested here?

Ling Zikai couldn't help but feel refreshed, carefully checked the traces around him, and sure enough, he found some traces of people walking by, heading towards the east of the mountain stream. At the moment, he hurriedly followed the trail and chased after it.

Along the way, those traces were intermittently as if they were covering up, and they seemed to be deliberately revealing traces to guide the way.

After walking for nearly an hour, the light in the mountain stream gradually dimmed.

Ling Zikai estimated that it should be almost dark by now. There was a cliff ahead, and at the foot of the cliff there was a dark cave. And the trail shown all the way to the mouth of the cave was cut off.

Could it be that the cuckoo is hiding in a cave?

I walked to the entrance of the cave and looked inside. It was dark inside, and I don't know how deep the cave was.

Ling Zikai released his ancestral consciousness and extended into the cave. Although it was dark inside, you could vaguely see that the cave was more than 20 meters deep and about 2 meters wide, more than one person high, empty, and half without any danger.

Ling Zikai saw that it was getting dark, but decided to stay in this cave for the night.

He walked more than five meters into the cave, and felt that it was getting damp and wet, mixed with a smell that he couldn't tell what it was, so he stopped going inside. Sit down in a slightly drier place near the cave wall.

From Jiangnan Province to Yunhai, and then to Lao Linzi, for two days, non-stop, Rao is Ling Zikai was full of energy and tired. After sitting down and eating a little dry food, I leaned against the wall of the cave and fell asleep without feeling it.

I don't know how long it took, in a daze, Ling Zikai felt something slapping his body. He opened his eyes dimly, and felt a tall black figure standing in front of him, so he couldn't help but be startled and hurriedly stood up.

The black shadow took a step back in fright when he saw that the other party suddenly moved, raised a forearm, and slapped it towards Ling Zikai.

Ling Zikai hurriedly dodged to the side, his forearm slapped on the cave wall, and the loud "thump" sound actually smashed a lot of stones on the cave wall.

The black shadow stomped hard against the cave wall because of the excessive force, and the forearm seemed to be in pain, and a whimper came out of his mouth, and his body took several steps back.

Hearing the other party's strange screams, Ling Zikai immediately woke up to the fact that he had met a black bear, and it was an unusually majestic pet.

It seems that this cave is the old den of the black bear, and he let himself break in by mistake, not to mention, and still sleep in it.

Ling Zikai couldn't cry or laugh a little, trying to calm down his panic, his body was motionless against the cave wall, and while holding his breath, he let go of the ancestral god consciousness, trying to see if he could control the other party.

When his consciousness entered the black energy's brain, Ling Zikai felt that his thoughts were a little simpler. Ancestral God Consciousness is not omnipotent, in other words, if you want to use your consciousness to control the target, it also depends on the strength of the other party. For example, it was the easiest to control the jujube red horse at first, but later encountered resistance when it encountered the big bad wolf, and although it succeeded in the end, it also took a lot of effort.

Now that he encountered a black bear that was several times stronger than the big bad wolf, Ling Zikai's ancestral god consciousness had just entered, and he was directly rejected.

Perhaps, when his ancestral god consciousness continued to increase to a certain extent, he would also be able to control a fierce beast of the level of a black bear. But that's for later, and how to escape the black bear's attack is the top priority at the moment.

Ling Zikai's first thought was to pretend to be dead, and they all said that the blind bear would not attack dead objects, lying motionless on the ground, maybe he could deceive it. However, this is the black bear's den, and don't expect it to be able to open it for a while. If the black bear stays in the hole for four or five days, will he lie on the ground for four or five days, and then he will not have to pretend, and he will starve to death!

Another way is to hear that as long as the black bear holds something, it won't let go for a while. When he takes off his clothes and throws them into his arms, the black bear thinks he has caught his prey, and then turns around and runs away, not knowing if he can get out.

If he can't, he can only use the ancestral god energy to fight the black bear head-on, and as for whether he can defeat the black bear, he doesn't have any confidence in his heart.

Just when Ling Zikai was undecided, the black bear shook his head, stood upright, and raised a bear paw the size of a fan and walked towards him.

Back then, Wu Song could kill a tiger with his bare hands, could it be that he had the energy of the ancestral god, and he couldn't beat a blind bear?

Ling Zikai secretly cheered himself up in his heart. It is said that the power of the black bear is concentrated in a pair of palms, and it can easily break the thick tree pole of the bowl. Ling Zikai naturally wouldn't fight it hard, and without waiting for its bear paw to fall, he took a step to the left first, raised his fist to transport the ancestral god energy, and struck it at its chest.

With a "thud", after the black bear was punched, his body took a few steps backwards, staggering as if he was about to fall, but finally stood firm, shook his head and pounced again.

Ling Zikai was taken aback, the punch he struck with the energy of the ancestral god could also break the thick tree at the mouth of the bowl, and now it fell on the black bear's body, it was okay, how could he fight with such a strong resistance?

Damn, I don't believe you're a Xiaoqiang who can't be killed.

Ling Zikai was ruthless in his heart, not confronting the black bear head-on, his body kept flashing around the black bear, and from time to time he raised his fist to hit its body.

Although the black bear is strong, it is not very flexible when it turns, and after being beaten constantly, it becomes extremely irritable and roars again and again.

Immediately afterward, the same roar was heard from the mountains and forests outside the cave.

Oh no, it's calling for a companion!

Ling Zikai knew that he couldn't fight anymore, so he saw the opportunity and hit the black bear's head hard.

Under this blow, the black bear finally shook and fell to the ground.

Ling Zikai didn't bother to check its life or death, so he quickly turned around and ran out of the cave.

As soon as he came out of the cave, there was a noise in the forest in front of him. Ling Zikai hurriedly turned around and hid in a bush of trees not far from the entrance of the cave.

I saw several black shadows of different sizes appear in the forest, and upon closer inspection, three more black bears appeared.

Ling Zikai broke out in a cold sweat all over his body, lying on the ground and even daring to breathe, let alone the slightest movement.

Fortunately, the three black bears did not linger outside, and went straight into the cave.

Ling Zikai didn't dare to leave immediately, for fear of making a movement and attracting the black bears to chase after him.

Fortunately, I was still fateful, and I came back before the ghost gate! If I stay in the cave now, I'm afraid I won't even know how to write the dead word!

The three black bears did not come out of the cave after they entered the cave.

Ling Zikai stayed outside the cave for nearly an hour, until there was a snoring sound from inside the cave, and then he quietly walked out of the bushes.

I don't care about the darkness, and I don't want to discern the direction, as long as I can stay away from this bear hole.

Stumbling along the way, from time to time the birds in the forest will startle the birds, flapping their wings across the night sky, and the cries they make echo in the mountains and forests.

As he walked, Ling Zikai suddenly smelled the aroma of barbecued meat, yes, it was still the smell of burnt meat.

Immediately afterward, he saw a fire in the forest in front of him, and a bonfire was rising in an open field. On the fire stood a tripod, on which hung a fat wild fowl.

And by the campfire, there sat a shadow, with his back to him, holding a wooden stick in his hand, constantly flipping the wild fowl on the shelf, wasn't it the cuckoo he was looking for?

Maybe it was because this scene appeared too suddenly, maybe there were too many expectations in his heart, when Ling Zikai saw the shadow, he stood there in a daze and didn't step forward.

It wasn't until he saw the other party pick up a piece of barbecue and put it in his mouth to chew that his stomach made a gurgling sound that Ling Zikai made a sound with difficulty:

"Can you give me a piece?"

"Who?"

Hearing the sound, the cuckoo threw away the barbecue in his hand at once, stood up steeply, pulled out a dagger in his hand, looked around, and found the figure behind him, just about to pounce on it with a dagger. But he saw the other party's face clearly in the firelight, and the whole person was stunned as if he had been struck by lightning.
