Chapter 1: Finally full
Jiang Xiao drilled from the six-meter-deep underground ice cave to the location of the cave entrance, listened intently to the surrounding movements, and then laboriously pushed open the skull of the adult Megalodon on the cave entrance, revealing the dazzling white light on his head.
Skinny arms supported the bony body and sprang out nimbly, vigilantly watching everything around him, and there was no sign of any creature except for the biting roaring cold wind.
Jiang Xiao struggled to push the giant toothed dog's skull at the entrance of the cave, covering most of the gaps, leaving only a gap of half his body, in case he encountered an unexpected situation when he came back, and he could quickly escape back to the cave.
This half of the gap is not afraid of other creatures approaching, it is estimated that except for the aborigines of the Snow Country, they will not approach here, mainly because the deterrent power of the skull of the adult Megalodon protects this shelter that has been inhabiting for twenty days.
Most of the areas where Jiang Xiao lives are ice silkworms and hexapus, and only a few live with more than a dozen megalodons, which are the natural enemies of ice silkworms and hexapuses, especially adult megalodons, which can almost hunt two adult ice silkworms at a time, not to mention hexapus, five or six adult hexapus are not the opponent of an adult megalodon.
And Jiang Xiao also rushed here by mistake when she was chased by a hexapus when she just woke up, and the hexapus was directly scared away by the murderous aura emanating from the skull of the megalodon.
So Jiang Xiao found this six-meter-deep ice cave around here as her temporary foothold, and regardless of the fact that she had just woken up, her hungry feet and legs were weak, she pushed and pulled the skull of the megalodon above the entrance of the cave, thanks to the megalodon's skull is one meter wide, just enough to block the cave, forming this natural protective barrier.
The skull of this megalodon should have been dead not long ago, don't look at the empty skull skeleton left, there is not a trace of flesh and blood on it, but the innate evil aura is still spreading around faintly, and the deep depression in the hollow eye sockets still looks around with that domineering contempt.
Jiang Xiao wrapped the tattered coat on his body tightly, this fabric I don't know what kind of animal fur it is, the warmth is okay, but it is really over the years, there are torn cuts and patches sewn by rough tendons and ropes everywhere, and the holes are even more innumerable, and it is really barely able to cover the wind and cold.
Jiang Xiao pulled out one of his few weapons, a five-inch-long bone knife, from his hairy boots, which had exposed his toes. It was covered in dirt and stains, and the handle of the bone knife was a curved handle, formed by natural bone, and the bone knife had a deep groove in the middle of the blade, and the side of the blade had sharp serrations that flashed with cold light.
After Jiang Xiao woke up, the only thing she felt content with in this time and space was this bone knife sharpened from the bones of this unknown creature, and several times she faced the hexapus that wanted to hunt her, all with the sharpness of this bone knife, and the ferocity of bloodletting, deboning and flesh removal that would be painful when piercing into the flesh and bones, so that she saved her little life.
Jiang Xiao felt the cold air of the ice and snow on the ground spilling in through the holes in his boots, his toes began to gradually numb, the snowflakes flying all over the sky, the bone-chilling wind piercing his muscles and bones, and the ice peaks and snow trees all over his eyes, this ghost weather, in addition to cold, is cold. Jiang Xiao was very skeptical that his small body could survive.
But even if he was facing the possibility of freezing to death, Jiang Xiao knew that he had to come out, anyway, he hadn't eaten a bite of food for three days, even if he shrank in a temporary shelter to minimize his calorie consumption, but he would starve to death in the cave for two days.
So freezing to death and starving to death is death anyway, Jiang Xiao decided to fight, before his body froze and stiffened, he could find some food, even if it was an animal corpse frozen to death on the side of the road, as long as he could maintain the most basic vital signs, it would be better than starving to death.
Moving step by step, bending over and lowering his head, his body range was reduced to the point where he could not be low, reducing his resistance to the hurricane, and finally moved to a half-collapsed building on the side, where the wind was much less because of the shelter of the building.
The window, without glass, opened its big mouth with a black hole, staring coldly and gloomily at Jiang Xiao, who had broken and collapsed on the ground, and the surface had already formed a thick layer of ice, solid cement and stones, and steel bars that had long been rotten and exposed.
From time to time, the broken small stones were blown by the strong wind and knocked on the few remaining pieces of glass on the window, making a ping-pong sound, which made Jiang Xiao's heart a little frightened.
Finally passed through the abandoned building, revealing more than a dozen residences behind the building, but there was no trace of human existence here for a long time, Jiang Xiao knew that this place had been occupied by hundreds of hexapuses, and those that seemed to be quietly under the slabs, behind the doors were always hidden dangers that you can't imagine.
But fortunately, it was windy today, Jiang Xiao raised the end of the scarf around his neck in his hand, and immediately tightened his neck by the wind, making Jiang Xiao almost cough out.
If a few hundred hexapuses are alarmed, hehe, there are probably no bones left.
Silently and silently passing through the building, in front of it was a place called the Death Cemetery by Jiang Xiao, which was a huge gymnasium.
The gate of the gymnasium had long been thrown to an unknown place, and the open field of the gymnasium was littered with the bones of hexapus and ice silkworms.
This cemetery is also the safest place that Jiang Xiao has found so far. Because for some reason, neither the hexapus nor the ice silkworm like to set foot in this place, although there are countless ice silkworms and hexapus bones here, but it seems to be a forbidden place for living hexapus and ice silkworms.
Jiang Xiao swaggered in, ignoring the crunching sound of the bones he stepped on from time to time, and went straight to the back door of the gymnasium, where there were several strange objects with sharp corners five hundred meters away.
Jiang Xiao has been wandering here for the past few days, with the idea of being here, because under the thick ice and snow here, there is a family of cold ice silkworms living.
And according to Jiang Xiao's observation, this is still a big family of ice silkworms.
Jiang Xiaoda's attention was to hunt a juvenile ice silkworm.
Adult Ice Silkworm, Jiang Xiao can't kill at all, needless to say that the adult Ice Silkworm can instantly freeze any living creature into a popsicle Ice Sneeze, as well as the skill that only an adult Ice Silkworm can --- stun. Generally, as long as it is targeted by an adult ice silkworm, it is basically difficult to escape the fate of being frozen into a popsicle and being dragged into the ice silkworm's nest for food.
Moreover, the biggest advantage of the Ice Silkworm is that it has a soft and white skin, which is smooth to the touch and does not leave a hand, but it is invulnerable and hard, and it is difficult for any sharp weapon to shake a point, and even a wound is difficult to cause.
Of course, this can only be done with the teeth of the megalodon.
Ask why Jiang Xiaoming knew that this ice silkworm was so difficult to hunt, how could he still fight the idea of the ice silkworm?
Ten days ago, Jiang Xiao unexpectedly encountered a battle between an ice silkworm and a hexapuse, and Jiang Xiao knew that if the ice silkworm was a juvenile, the ice sneeze would be ignored directly, and the ice sneeze of the juvenile ice silkworm and the adult ice silkworm could not be compared at all, and the ice sneeze could make the enemy tremble at most.
And the juvenile Ice Silkworm will not be stunned by this skill, the biggest discovery is that under the belly of the juvenile Ice Silkworm is a flaw in defense, which is the only weakness of the Ice Silkworm's invulnerable skin. The hexapus bit the belly of the juvenile ice silkworm to end the battle and eat a full meal.
It was only when he saw the wonderful hunt of the hexapus that Jiang Xiao moved here to wait for the opportunity to hunt the larvae of the ice silkworm. You must know that in comparison, the Ice Silkworm is a creature with a low degree of ferocity, and it is also the only creature that Jiang Xiao may be able to hunt with the power of one person.
Jiang Xiao drooled greedily when he thought of the flesh on the white ice silkworms he saw that day, and even his stomach, which had not eaten anything for a long time, began to cramp, and the stomach acid was burning his entire chest, and the pain was hot.
If you don't kill the ice silkworm today, you can only become a benevolent.
Starving, freezing to death, and dying fighting for food, Jiang Xiao would rather choose to be killed in battle.
I don't know how long it took, Jiang Xiao's body was already frozen and stiff, and his legs couldn't bend anymore. Finally, from the direction of the hexagonal spire closest to Jiang Xiao, a cold ice silkworm wriggled and squirmed, fortunately it was a juvenile ice silkworm.
It seems that God does not want to starve to death himself.
Jiang Xiao's thin fingers like chicken feet clenched the bone knife in his hand tightly, and his body fell to the ground, almost melting into the surrounding snow. The main thing is that the color of the ragged fur clothes on Jiang Xiao's body is close to white, although it is yellow and dirty, but it looks like a pile of snow contaminated with feces at most, and there are many snowdrifts of this color around here.
The young ice silkworm was getting closer and closer, and the slightly pungent fishy smell on its body was clearly audible. On the ground, as the young ice silkworm moved, a slight trembling sensation came, very close.
Jiang Xiao held his breath and didn't dare to move, until there was a feeling of soft flesh crushing his body, and then he turned over his hand and inserted the tip of the bone knife in his hand into the ** on his head.
As expected, there was a "poof" sound, and the white heat stream left along the grooves of the bone knife, and the snow on the ground was indistinguishable from you and me.
The young ice silkworm struggled desperately, trying to break free from the force that pierced him underground, but there was nothing he could do. And as it struggled, the serrated blade of the bone knife had neatly cut through the abdomen of the young ice silkworm, and all the white and hot internal organs were sprinkled out, and the young ice silkworm fell to the ground and stopped struggling.
Jiang Xiao neatly slashed everything along the abdominal muscles cut by the juvenile ice silkworm, and as soon as the fat soft flesh slipped from the neck, the whole piece of the juvenile ice silkworm's outer skin was peeled off.
Jiang Xiao directly cut off two snow-white muscles about forty catties from the back of the juvenile ice silkworm, threw them on the ice silkworm skin that had just been cut, quickly rolled up one by one, tied a dead knot, and put it on his back, this heavy weight almost crushed Jiang Xiao's shoulders, and he pulled the burden up, and the cat's waist quickly slipped back.
The smell of blood from the corpse of the juvenile Ice Silkworm here will soon attract the attention of the Ice Silkworm and the Hexapus, and it won't be long before this place becomes a bloody battlefield.
Jiang Xiao hurried through the buildings when he came just now without looking back, and took a large handful of hexapus bones from the death cemetery, hugged them tightly in his arms, returned to the shelter where he lived, pushed the megalodon skull, opened more gaps, and vacated a position that could accommodate a person, threw down a handful of bones in his hand first, and then threw the package on his back next, and then shrank back and kicked the hole on the cave wall that he had dug with a bone knife, supporting himself, With great difficulty, he moved the megalodon's skull over, completely obscuring the sky above his head.
He fell to the ground with his hands and feet, touched a hexapus bone from the ground, and took out two round black-green stone-like things from his bosom, and bumped them against each other, and after three or two blows, a spark splashed on the hexapus's bones, and immediately a cluster of flames burned happily.
Jiang Xiao held the torch and kicked the bones of the hexapus on the ground into a pile with his foot, and piled them under the stone wall with a slope, where a pile of hexapus bones had already been piled high against the wall.
After lighting a fire, Jiang Xiao inserted the torch in his hand into a groove in the stone wall. Untie the burden of the ice silkworm skin, and take out the two ice silkworm loins inside.
One was placed on top of the stone wall, where it was frozen with solid thick ice, even if Jiang Xiao lived here for more than 20 days and built a fire for more than 20 days to keep warm, it was still cold and solid. This is the only natural refrigerator that Jiang Xiao can think of.
The flesh of another cold ice silkworm was cut into more than forty pieces by Jiang Xiao, each weighing half a catty, worn on a black metal stick, and roasted on the fire.
The warm and thawing fire made Jiang Xiao's almost frozen and stiff body just now finally recover a trace of heat, and the meat strips in his hand were turned, so that the meat strips on each side were fully roasted by the flames, and the fat in the muscles was licked and melted by the flames, and the points fell on the flame mountain, splashing higher flames, and the bottom of the cave exuded bursts of fragrance.
Jiang Xiao looked at the strips of meat that had some burnt skin, smelled the rich aroma of meat, and couldn't help it with hunger, so he tore off a strip of meat that was a little charred and hard with his hands and stuffed it into his mouth.
Well, delicious.
The meat on the back of the ice silkworm is the most tender and nutritious place, not only delicious and tender, but also the meat here is also the most mellow place on the body of the ice silkworm, and all the energy of the ice silkworm is stored in this place.
It is conceivable that this meat is not only delicious to eat, but also increases the replenishment of energy in the body.
Jiang Xiao ate five barbecued meat in one bite without stopping, and then slowly reduced the speed of his eating, and began to chew carefully and taste slowly.
After eating six strips of meat, Jiang Xiao finally slapped his bulging stomach and burped loudly.
Finally ate enough for the first time.
However, Jiang Xiao still grilled all the meat strips and made them into jerky that can be eaten at any time, which is the best dry food he can carry when he goes out hunting in the future, and it is also his reliance to save his life.
This is the first time I woke up in this world, and I felt that I finally had a sense of security, not like a lost dog some time ago, running around hiding from the hunting of all kinds of creatures, and starving to endure the days of not being able to eat a little food for three or two days.
Now that I have the ability to hunt prey, I have enough food to fill my stomach, and I have a place to live for the time being, at least I will no longer worry about whether I will starve to death and freeze to death like the original owner of this body in the next moment.
Yes, Jiang Xiao is not from this world.
Wrong, it can't be said that Jiang Xiao is not a person from this world, but a person from this world three thousand years later.
This world is a new era after a catastrophe after 2050 years for mankind --- 1000 years after the end of the century.
The catastrophe that year swept the whole world, and the entire earth was plunged into the catastrophe that followed the catastrophe. The entire human race is almost extinct, in the face of various natural disasters**, all kinds of creatures appear bizarrely, new species occupy the earth, and human beings have degraded to the lowest end of the food chain and become food in the mouths of other creatures.
Until many humans developed the ultimate human combat ability, called - ability.
Only then did he create eight new continents on the earth, and many lords of the kingdom who led the supernatural warriors to kill the super creatures emerged, forming the eight lords of the later generations, and from the beginning of the new human beings to stand at the top of the food chain and dominate the whole world.
And Jiang Xiao, a librarian in the Yuan Snow Country in the last century of the later generations, except for the vast history of the end of the century and the various documents and biological materials in the library, Jiang Xiao never forgot it, since she was not a member of any special group, and she did not know any special skills.
At most, she can call out the origin and formation of all abilities, including the route diagram of various abilities, Jiang Xiao is an ordinary person through and through.
But in the blink of an eye, Jiang Xiao returned to this era that was still in the last century and the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, and he was powerless to face such harsh living conditions.
The only thing Jiang Xiao felt relieved about was to look at the food and safe shelter in front of him, give himself a thumbs up, and say: Human potential is really unlimited.
Although I, Jiang Xiao, am at the beginning of the last days, I can still live well.
Without an ability, I can kill my prey and feed my belly.
I didn't have to be physically strong, and I was able to live freely with my rich knowledge of history and biology.
But why do I want to go back?
