Volume 1: The Inside and Outside of the World 021 Poplar's Wilderness Survival

Walking on the edge of the stream, Poplar spotted a mud pool, and he ran over to it, grabbed the mud and smeared it on his body: "Look at these thin muds, they look disgusting, but the locals told me that if you put them on your body, you can ward off the deadly forest mosquitoes." Don't underestimate the little blood-sucking things, they can kill you. ”

The so-called locals refer to Chu Qiu, who introduced some common sense in the wilderness on the plane.

After applying the mud, there were really a lot fewer mosquitoes, and he was on the road with ease.

In the bushes beside the stream, there was a sudden sound of rustling, and the poplar slowed down vigilantly, and the knife was straight in front of him.

The head of an insect sticks out of the bushes, with a sharp jaw, long antennae, and a pair of compound eyes, and the body behind it also crawls out, covered with armor, and the sides of the body are covered with limbs, and the horizontal bar in front of the poplar tree, like a train transiting.

"Whew, this is a giant horse, it is huge but docile, it feeds on the young stems and leaves of plants, let's not disturb it, let it pass. Poplar breathed a sigh of relief.

A minute passed, two minutes passed, three minutes passed, and the giant horse had not yet fully climbed out of the bushes.

"Oh my God, I swear, it's the longest giant horse I've ever seen, it's at least 10 meters long, look at its black armor, what a beautiful little life. I don't think we can waste time here, let's cross it!"

The poplar jumps over the giant horse, which is more than a meter wide, and continues to swim up the stream.

After walking about a kilometer, he found a tree on the side of the road full of huge red fruits, emitting a strange fragrance, and he walked over to pick some, and said to himself:

"Hey, look what we found, look at the red fruit on that tree, this one is actually edible, let's go pick some. ”

He walked under the tree and found that the tree was full of vines, the trunk was about 10 meters in diameter, and he slowly climbed up along the vines.

Suddenly, he felt a numbness in his arm, and the vines stretched out their spikes, piercing the poplar's skin, and then the vines writhed, and he was thrown to the ground, and all the nearby vines moved and approached him.

"No, these vines are the legendary cypress, and their surface will secrete poisonous sap to paralyze the nerves, and then they will roll up their prey and hang it from the tree, secreting digestive juices to digest the prey and make them their own nutrients. ”

"Now they're eyeing me, but I'm not seriously poisoned, and my metabolism gets rid of the toxins very quickly. As he spoke, the numbness in Poplar's arm was gone, and he swung his knife and slashed at the vine.

The vines were sluggish and were cut off with a single sword, and a large amount of green juice flowed from the wound, as if sensing the threat, and all the vines retreated into a spherical shape.

Poplar didn't have the heart to fight a group of plants, he took out a piece of clothing from his backpack, wrapped a severed vine in it, and filled a small bottle with some juice, and continued on his way.

A rumbling sound came from a distance into Poplar's ears, and his eyes lit up and he quickened his movements.

"I heard the sound of the waterfall, which is a good sign, the waterfall and the adventure are almost equal during the spiritual journey, and I will show you how to practice under the waterfall later. ”

Poplar's voice grew quieter as he saw a tall black figure in the jungle beside him, and he knelt down.

"Shhhh As soon as he finished speaking, the bear turned around and looked at the poplar with a pair of huge eyes.

"We weren't lucky, he saw us, the average giant short-faced bear can stand up to 5 meters tall and weigh nearly two tons, and I can still fight. But the one in front of us is three meters tall when it crawls, and I guess it could be eight meters when it stands, so our best coping strategy is to run. ”

At the moment of crisis, Yang Shu did not forget his role-playing mission, and he turned around and fled after saying this.

The heavy footsteps behind him chased after him, and the speed was even a few points faster than that of the poplar.

But the poplars did not run aimlessly, they still ran in the direction of the waterfall.

The creek beside the poplar tree gradually turned into a large river, and the terrain became higher and higher, and after jumping up a large rock, a waterfall came into view, and below the waterfall was a lake.

The bear behind him was in hot pursuit, and before he had time to catch his breath, the poplar continued to run towards the lake.

As he climbed over the boulder, the bear's paw seemed to slip, and the bear accidentally fell into the river, causing a high splash.

The water by the river was not deep, and it could only drown up to the bear's shoulder, but it fell but never came out, and a large group of piranha in the water frantically tore at the bear's body, and the river was stained red with blood.

Attracted by the smell of blood, a crocodile leaps out of the water and opens its mouth to bite the remaining bear corpse, swallowing it in one gulp.

Looking at the crocodile's body that jumped high above the water for more than ten meters, Yang Shu broke out in a cold sweat: "Could this be the legendary emperor crocodile?"

The piranha went to besiege the emperor crocodile again, but in the face of the thick scale armor, it had no way to speak, and broke up unhappily.

Frightened by these gigantic prehistoric beasts, Poplar no longer dares to play the role of the man at the top of the food chain, and decides to live cautiously.

Returning to the place where the bear was found, Poplar searched carefully in the vicinity, and found a cave under a big tree, which should be the bear's lair, the cave was quite large, he cleaned it up, and piled up the bear's feces and hair at the mouth of the cave.

By this time it was already dark.

Poplar hurriedly gathered some leaves and dead branches, made a fire in the bear's den, and made a bed out of fresh leaves and straw ropes, ready to spend the night hungry, with only some ropes, clothes and a water bottle in his backpack, and no food.

Feeling the emptiness in his stomach, the itching of pimples after mosquito bites, the stench and dampness in the bear's den, the poplar felt very uncomfortable.

"Sometimes, negative emotions can suddenly flood in, but don't try to stop them, it will make you suffer. You should accept the pain with ease. ”

"Because of pain, it is the feeling of weakness withdrawing from the body. ”

After pouring himself a mouthful of chicken soup for the soul, Poplar struggled to fall asleep on a bed made of leaves.

The next day, when it was just dawn, the poplar woke up from his sleep, his whole body was wet with dew, several pimples were suppurated, his hunger was even stronger, and his eyes were somewhat edema because he had not slept well last night.

When he walked to the stream, the poplar washed himself with the water, then re-applied the mud, took some water from the kettle, and made a pool of stones into which he poured the juice of the cypress.

Returning to the bear's den, he boiled the stream in the kettle with the heat of the fire, drank a little and lay down on the leaves.

After more than ten minutes, Poplar sat up and walked out of the bear's den to the edge of the pond that had been fenced before, and there were some small fish and shrimp floating on the surface of the water, which were paralyzed by the toxin, and he put them in the kettle, and then boiled the water in the kettle again.

After eating some fish and shrimp, Yang Shu regained some strength and used the Book of Souls to feel Chu Qiu's position—Dongfang.

Before setting out, the poplar climbed up the treetops and looked to the east, a grassland, returned to the ground, cut a thicker branch with a straight knife to use as a walking stick, and he headed towards the rising sun.

But this time he didn't dare to underestimate the forest, the harsh Mother Nature had already taught the young man a lesson.

On the other hand, Rachel wears a garland on her head, surrounded by all kinds of small animals, holding all kinds of fruits in their arms to pay her respect, walking in the jungle, she is like a fairy in the forest, nature is passive magic - affinity with nature.

An Yi jumped down from the corpse of a huge saber-toothed tiger, wiped the sweat from his forehead, happily took out a piece of paper, and put a checkmark behind the name of the saber-toothed tiger, in addition to this, there were also wild beasts such as the Titan Python, the Emperor Crocodile, the Argentine Giant Eagle, and the Bu Giant Ape with a checkmark behind the name.

Chu Qiu stayed in the hollow of a baobab tree on the grassland, boredly roasting breadfruit and eating it, while under the tree, surrounded by beast corpses.

Mother Nature sometimes treats her differently.
