Chapter 35 Cabin in the Woods
A very serious problem:
Where is this?
After walking for several hours with my weak body, I couldn't tell the difference between east and west, and no matter which direction I looked, there were only endless trees and stones.
Lost.
But getting lost also has the advantage of getting lost, I really don't believe that when I go to this kind of ghost place, General Li's men and horses can still be found......
As soon as he said this in his heart, he quickly glanced around.
Fortunately, there is no one.
I felt a big rock fall in my heart.
As soon as the pressure was relaxed, the two feet did not obey the call on the spot, and they found a tree to lean on, and the whole person fell to the ground like mud.
The twenty-five meridians in the body are now empty, and there is no trace of energy.
Excessive fatigue has reduced the recovery speed of qi to the extreme.
Maintaining various paralyzed postures, I began to silently exercise my internal strength, qi to walk the dantian, and after three hundred and sixty weeks of operation, the exhausted qi finally began to slowly recover.
After a little rest, the sky gradually darkened.
At night, the mountains and forests are full of dangers, and there are many snakes, insects, birds, and beasts lurking in the jungle.
In this case......
Should you take the opportunity to grab some game to replenish your body?
Just do it.
I dug a few handfuls on the ground, got some branches, broken leaves, or something, and when I lit them (please don't worry about the details), it was a simple torch that could illuminate a range of about three or four feet.
Holding the torch, I looked down at the ground around me.
As the saying goes, snakes have snake paths, rats have rat paths, in the eyes of pedestrians, what kind of animal activities are in this mountain forest, it is very clear.
Look, there's a faint glowing mark on these leaves, indicating that a snake passed here not long ago.
The glow marks are intermittent, perhaps even far apart, and it is not realistic to track a snake from the trails alone, but a smart snake catcher relies not only on these marks, but more importantly on the snake's habits.
Snakes love shade, and if they are resting, they will go to low, damp places, but judging by the degree to which the leaves on the ground are squeezed away, the snake has not yet eaten, so it should be looked in the direction of many obstacles and shadows, and they usually catch prey in this type of terrain.
After walking for a while, I found some snake traces at the root of the tree.
It should be nearby.
I pulled out half of the tip of my gun and listened with bated breath to the woods.
Hiss...... Hiss......
Found it, this guy was wandering among a pile of rocks.
If I had caught snakes before, I would have had to set traps, put bait, and make all kinds of preparations before I dared to do it.
Unexpectedly, after only a few days, the whole world was different.
The silver light flashed, and the tip of the spear had nailed the snake's head to death.
Approaching with a torch: it turned out to be a walnut-thick ringed snake, highly venomous, the head and tail can be more than three feet long, and it will not die for a while and a half, and the red and black snake body is still writhing.
In order not to waste it, first make a small sip at seven inches and drink snake blood.
Then use a knife to peel off the snake's skin, clean off the poisonous entrails, and eat the rest.
Snake meat is very fragrant when grilled, but the smoke and the aroma of food can easily cause unnecessary trouble, considering that you are being hunted down...... Let's eat it raw.
I've eaten a lot of snakes, but this is the first time I've eaten them raw.
With a wave of the big knife, the raw snake meat of the white flower was placed in front of him one by one, soft to the touch, slippery and greasy, put it in the mouth and chewed, a special fishy smell rushed straight to the nasal cavity, and almost spit it out.
I didn't throw up.
Because I know very well that it is not only snake meat that spits out, but also my own life.
In order to save your life, let alone raw snake meat, even if it is the legendary dark dish: 'large intestine sashimi does not have a large intestine version', you have to grit your teeth and swallow it.
I chewed a few times, pinching my nose and swallowing hard.
I have to say, no matter how unbearable things are, it's good to get used to them.
As I chewed, I began to taste the fresh, wild flavor of the fishy nose......
Is this a pleasure in suffering?
Under the mixed effect of snake blood and snake meat, my body gradually warmed up and my strength was recovering.
At this time, it was already dark, and the five fingers in the forest were nowhere to be seen.
If you can lie down and sleep, it will definitely be very comfortable.
Unfortunately, this is not a place to rest.
Burying the snake remains on the spot, I fought hard, lit a simple torch, and continued to walk in the dark!
After changing the torches five times, a dark shadow suddenly passed by in the shadows of the trees in front of him.
Someone seems to have it?
I cautiously handed the torch over, and in the light of the fire, a terrifying face jumped out from among the bushes, and I shuddered all over, and the torch flew straight out.
At first, I thought I had encountered some mandrill ghosts, but after rolling on the ground for a while, I didn't feel any unusual movement, and then I got up.
Pick up the torch and take a photo: Phew!
It turned out to be an abandoned cabin, the doors and windows were rotten, and only two small and one large and three black holes were exposed, which really looked like a dried human face.
This kind of deep mountains and old forests, there were still people living in the past?
I was surprised for a moment, and was about to take a detour when I suddenly stopped.
If you have a house, why not borrow it for the night?
Although it looks tattered, it's better than being out there with snakes, insects, rats and ants.
Having made up my mind, I picked up my torch and walked inside.
The fire was dim, and only a few simple tables and chairs could be faintly illuminated, and the whole room could not be seen clearly.
Probably because the windows and doors are open and ventilated, there is no heavy smell of decay here, but when you step on it, it is soft, slippery, and slimy, and there is always a feeling of stepping on a living thing.
Is it moss? Still is......
Isn't there something else that has moved in before me?
I panicked.
Remove!
I made a quick decision and pulled out.
Too late.
Gala La......
With a tooth-aching twisting sound, the soles of my feet were empty, and my whole body was already suspended in the air.
The floor is collapsing!
Fortunately, I didn't fall too deep, and my shoulder hit a hard object, and my body involuntarily churned, bang, bang, bang, and hit more hard objects in a row.
At this time, I was in despair.
There was only one scenario I could think of with such a deep space under the room.
Thatched house!
It's over, it's going to fall into the manure pit.
Just as I closed my lips to avoid eating for a while, I felt my muscles tighten, and my whole body had hit some kind of tough strip-like object.
By feeling, it should be a branch.
The bouncy of the branches threw me into the air again.
Fortunately, I reacted quickly, reached out and grabbed a branch firmly, and it took me a long time to stabilize my body.
What's the situation? Is there a tree growing under the house?
The torch was gone, and it was pitch black, and I hung my limbs on the tree, with a thick branch on my back, and when I moved a little, it swayed.
Don't say it, it's quite comfortable.
In addition, the air is filled with a wet dampness, which is cloudy and cold, and when you calm down, you can hear the sound of rushing water......
It's still the same old saying.
Where is this?
