Chapter 21: Lost in the Mountains
Zhao Fei took a few of them to practice at night, and did not gradually fall asleep until late at night.
When he woke up in the morning, he was shocked because the mountains were full of fog. It was the first time he had encountered such a situation, and the horror of the fog was not something they could have imagined.
"Zhao Ming, Yu'er, are you all there?"
The fog is more terrible than the night, because the night can also use the light of the fire, and the fog is so thick that you don't even know who is standing in front of you.
"Big brother, we're here. ”
After confirming that they were all not far from him, Zhao Fei was relieved.
"Don't move any of you, I'll go down and see." ”
The visibility in front of him was no more than two meters, and Zhao Fei relied on his sense of hearing to determine whether there were fierce beasts around.
When he was sure that he was safe for the time being, he gathered the crowd around him and let them climb his big tree.
"You are all cultivating in the trees, don't go anywhere, we can't walk an inch in this weather. When the fog clears, we are looking for a way out, safety first. ”
Zhao Fei didn't know how much the fog would dissipate, so he had to take everyone to cultivate on the tree.
They don't know how long time has passed, there is no sun, and they can't see the stars in the sky. They are now like blind people, and they can barely see anything.
"Brother, I'm hungry. ”
Fortunately, there was still some barbecue left from yesterday, and when he heard Yu'er say that he was hungry, Zhao Fei knew that everyone should be hungry, so he took out some meat and shared it with them.
"I've never encountered anything like this, and that's probably the scary thing about the mountains. We didn't eat much, so we saved some food, and we don't know how long the fog will last. ”
Zhao Fei has some experience in surviving in the wild, and he always has two days of dry food left. Today, for the first time, I encountered a special situation, and my preparation was finally used in the field.
In the fog, they don't know how long it took, but when the dry food and water were finally eaten and drunk, the fog not only did not disperse, but became thicker and thicker.
At the beginning, Zhao Fei was very calm, but now he can no longer be calm.
If the fog does not disperse, the few of them will not be able to find anything to eat, and they will die of thirst even if they do not starve to death.
Now it's all about feeling, and another day has passed.
They are thirsty and hungry after a day and a night without food, and if they continue like this, they will really lose their lives here.
"All of you don't move, all stay here and wait for me, I'll go down and get something to eat. I can only rely on my voice to discern direction and keep in touch with me. I can't go too far, do you understand?"
"Okay, we'll call you all the time. ”
Zhao Fei jumped off the tree and slowly groped forward. Now everything can only be done by luck, and if you are too unlucky, you may go home empty-handed.
Zhao Fei's range of activity can only surround Zhao Yang and the others at a distance of 500 meters, and if he loses contact and can't find the direction back, it will be a big trouble.
In the face of the fog, Zhao Fei had unspeakable regrets. He shouldn't have listened to Grandpa Wang's words, in case he was really trapped in the mountains, he couldn't stand them.
Suddenly, he smelled blood, and he heard a "silky" sound in front of him, and a giant python was swimming towards him.
He immediately focused his full attention on the front, and in an instant a giant python swam in front of him. The python looked at him, and he looked at the python too.
Zhao Fei was shocked in his heart, the torso of the giant python was thicker than the mouth of the big bowl. I encountered countless pythons in this deep mountain, and this was the largest and thickest python I had ever seen.
The giant python suddenly attacked him, and it opened its mouth and pounced on Zhao Fei.
Zhao Fei had no way to dodge because he had nowhere to dodge, and at the same time he had to defeat the python and kill it. The python wanted to swallow him, but he didn't want to eat the python, this was his life-saving delicacy.
He didn't use his fists to fight because he had to do it quickly. Zhao Fei took out the machete from behind his back and slashed at the giant python head-on.
However, he ignored the Python's spirituality, and it shook its head to dodge Zhao Fei's attack and quickly swam to the side.
Zhao Fei slashed to the ground with a knife, he jumped up quickly, and slashed at the abdomen of the giant python with another knife.
However, he missed with a knife, and when he leaned forward, the giant python tried to entangle Zhao Fei with its tail.
Zhao Fei picked up the machete and slashed at the snake's tail, he held the knife in both hands and used all his strength.
This time, the python failed to dodge Zhao Fei's machete, it was slashed squarely, and its tail was almost cut off.
Probably knowing that this man would not be its prey, it quickly fled into the distance. How could Zhao Fei let the prey in his hand run away, he jumped up and slashed down at the back of the giant python.
The injured python was no longer flexible, and this time it still couldn't dodge, and Zhao Fei's machete was deeply inserted into its back.
It was still fleeing, but Zhao Fei stood bent over and stood in place, holding the machete that was deeply inserted into its back. The python struggled hard, the wound on its back getting bigger and bigger.
After struggling for a few minutes, it no longer had the strength to escape, and fell to the ground in despair.
Zhao Fei pulled out the machete and slashed at its head, although the machete was blunt, it still cut off the snake's head.
Zhao Fei also lost his strength, but he knew that danger was always there. He quickly slipped up the snake meat in large chunks, filled the water bag with several bags of snake blood, and quickly left.
A few minutes after he left, a group of beasts arrived, and they quickly ate the python.
"You all take a sip of snake blood, but this thing doesn't taste good, and you can't drink too much. Quench your thirst first, and I'll figure it out later. ”
Now, as long as you can eat and drink, everyone will not pick and choose. In this harsh environment, saving your life is the most important thing.
Dozens of catties of snake meat and snake blood lasted for a few more days. Finally, one day the fog lightened a little, and I could see a place more than ten meters away.
Zhao Fei was overjoyed, and quickly led everyone forward, they quickly found some wild fruits and small animals, quickly replenished their strength, and stocked up on dry food.
They don't know where they are now, and they can't find their way back, so they can only walk in the mountains.
The fog has finally lifted, but at least more than twenty days have passed. Zhao Fei climbed the tallest tree, and what he saw was still an endless forest, and he couldn't distinguish the direction and location at all.
What he feared had happened anyway, and now he is completely disoriented. Since I was lost, I had to move on.
In the mountains, they learned a lot of survival skills, and continued to cultivate while finding their way out.
Around Qinghuang Mountain, many masters have appeared recently, and they are wandering around the place near Zhao Feijin Mountain. Some people continued to go deeper, and some people searched nearby, and they were all looking for the traces of Zhao Fei and his party.
The people who dared to come to Qinghuang Mountain to look for them were basically close to the Refining Realm or the masters of the Refining Realm.
People who don't have this kind of cultivation don't dare to come at all, or it's useless to come. The rumored young man named Zhao Fei was already at the sixth order of the Refining Realm, not to mention that there were several of them.
Flame City has been very calm recently, because Zhao Fei is not in Flame City, and the people who want to take revenge on him can't find a target, so they have to put aside the idea of revenge for the time being.
However, the Zhao family is very anxious, Zhao Fei and the others have been gone for more than two months, and there is no news coming back until now, they are all worried.
Xu Baichuan was able to hold his breath at first, but recently he has also begun to panic, and he will go to Zhao's house almost every day to inquire about the news.
But every time he inquired, he was disappointed, and today he came to Zhao's house again.
"The third child, the children have been gone for so long, and it is not a solution for us to wait at home, so I think it is better to go into the mountains to find it. ”
"Brother Xu, even if we look for it, but where can we find it when Qinghuang Mountain is so big?" Zhao Zhenduo sighed and shook his head.
"I know it's too difficult, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack, but we can't sleep at home if we don't go looking for it. ”
Xu Baichuan now began to regret that he shouldn't let them enter the mountain, or that he should have arranged for two masters to follow them in.
But regret is useless, since the matter has happened, he wants to quickly find a way to search and rescue Zhao Fei and others.
After studying for a long time and not finding a good way, Xu Baichuan went back dejectedly.
"Don't be anxious for a while, for if they don't come back in two days, I'll go to them. ”
After Xu Baichuan left, the old man came to the living room and said to Zhao Zhenduo.
Zhao Zhenduo was overjoyed when he heard this, and it was only fitting that an old man went out to find it.
The strength of the Zhao family is still very weak, and they simply have no ability to go to Qinghuang Mountain to find Zhao Fei.
Yan Xue has been in a good mood recently, and the Yan family has arranged for masters to guard Qinghuang Mountain, and news keeps coming from there.
Recently, there have been countless masters wandering around, and there is no trace of Zhao Fei and others. The longer they don't show up, the more likely they are to be in distress.
Zhao Fei had become a demon on her cultivation path, and whenever he thought of Zhao Fei, he was furious, which had seriously affected her cultivation mentality.
Three days later, in the evening, the old man set off for Qinghuang Mountain. He stood in the courtyard of the Zhao family and rose into the air, striding towards Qinghuang Mountain in the air.
The old man chose to fly in the air, not to ride a horse. Because so much time has passed, he can't hold his breath now, and he must rush to Qinghuang Mountain as soon as possible.
Before dawn, he rushed to Qinghuang Mountain, staring at the familiar and unfamiliar mountain in front of him, he did not hesitate, and continued to step into the mountain.
The old man searched in Qinghuang Mountain for two days and two nights, but still found no trace of Zhao Fei and others, and his mood became heavier and heavier.
If he was just worried before, now he is already a little scared, afraid that Zhao Fei and them will encounter danger and accidents.
He had searched the vicinity for hundreds of miles, but still couldn't find them.
He didn't go any deeper, because there was no point in looking for it.
It has been shrouded in thick fog lately, and it is impossible to see inside. If Zhao Fei really broke into there, he would have lost his way a long time ago.
He searched for three more days, but found nothing, and finally returned with a sigh.
Zhao Fei didn't know how long he had been in the mountains, they had checked the number of days at first, and then they didn't remember them anymore.
The mountains hardly reflect the taste of summer, because in the primeval forest, you can't feel the heat of summer at all.
Since they could no longer find their way out, they simply gave up looking. Every day in the mountains, I practice desperately.
When everyone forgot about their fears and faced them with a peaceful mind, their cultivation was advancing by leaps and bounds.
They believed that as long as they worked hard to cultivate, when their cultivation reached a certain height, it would be the time to walk out of these 100,000 mountains.
Spring goes to summer, the seasons change, and a year passes in a blink of an eye.
