Chapter 331: Feeling of Hunger
Really small, about four to six months old, it was a boy, his small mouth was full of sticky blood like jelly, he began to cough violently, Xiao Zhi turned it over and slapped his back lightly and heavily, the child vomited a small piece on the ground, it turned out that the meat was stuck......
Xiao Zhi's gaze fell on the woman's flesh and blood blurred arms and legs, so it was, if it was just blood, it couldn't be an adult or a child for too long. It's just that such a young child, the gastrointestinal function is not ready to accept this meat food, and the death of an adult, the child will soon follow.
He gently placed the child beside the woman, covered the thin sheet, and prepared to leave.
As soon as the tail fingers tightened, it was a toddler, and he stretched out his little hand to grasp his fingertips tightly, as if to hold on. Xiao Zhi broke free of his hand, pushed open the door of the room and left. The child was very well-behaved, did not make a crying sound, just quietly snuggled up to the gradually cold mother's face......
Xiao Zhi found another wooden house to live in, but he did not lie down to sleep.
Instead, he sat cross-legged, pinching the palms of his left and right hands and leaning on his knees with his palms facing up, although he banned active props and skills, he didn't forget that the premise of banning skills and props was produced by pieces of paper. But he still keeps in mind the "Pure Heart Method of Taoism", so he has to try to see if he can use it, anyway, he can't suffer a loss, and he can't be fooled......
There is a warning in the mental method, and when cultivating, it is most taboo to be mindful of the ape, and only by emptying the mind can the mind be integrated and sense everything around the body. He slowly closed his eyelids......
The full moon hung high in the night sky, and the cold wind blew through the slightly dry branches, making a whimpering sound, like evil spirits crawling out of hell crying out of the world to tell their pain and resentment, and the swaying branches were their claws......
There was something moving in the dead grass.
In the moonlight, it turned out to be four or five hungry wild wolves, wolves are fierce and cunning creatures and basically act in groups, in this era of famine, people can't have enough to eat, let alone this kind of carnivore.
They slowly approached the village, and the wolf in the front sniffed its nose, as if it smelled the fresh smell of blood in the air, and swept its tail lightly twice, and slowly followed the smell, followed by several wolves in the back.
The wolf walked to a wooden house, gently touched the top door panel with his head, and with a creak, the door actually opened, and he took a few steps back to make sure that he did not perceive any danger, and then walked through the crack in the door. When it saw the woman lying on the floor, it hurried over, and its teeth lifted the sheet on it, and the smell of blood suddenly spread......
Although it had not been dead for a long time, it was a novelty for the wolf, and it was pleasantly surprised to find that there was a child lying next to him, his eyes were shining green in the dim environment, and the corners of his mouth were drooling and falling to the ground, and several wolves surrounded the mother and son.
The child was awakened in swaddling clothes by the stench emanating from the wolf's mouth, and a weak oooh sound came from his throat, and his little body desperately leaned against his mother's cold face. The other wolves leaned up and were fiercely squeezed away by the first wolf, which opened its fangs and bit down violently! The smell of blood spread, and blood flowed slowly on the ground.
The wolf was lying on the ground with its front half on its stomach, its head pierced and nailed to the ground by a sharp wooden stick with the end sharpened, and it did not understand what had happened.
The light of the moon was still cold, shining on the wooden house, and the shadow of the man standing at the door was stretched for a long time, and the remaining four wolves felt the danger and dispersed, and their green eyes stared at the person who came and made a sound of baring teeth......
The owner of the shadow was Xiao Zhi, he slowly retracted the hand that had just thrown the wooden stick, leaned his body and picked up a rusty axe by the door and said, "I said why can't I calm down, it turns out that I didn't eat supper, come on." As the words fell, the four wolves moved, the axes cut through the air, and the metal collided with flesh and blood, and the sound was chilling......
The battle came and ended quickly, and he swung the blood stains on the axe hard, Xiao Zhi put down the axe, walked to the ground bunk and picked up the baby in swaddling clothes: "This kind of troubled world is an infernal purgatory of pain for ordinary people, do you want to lie here and fend for yourself to leave the pain, or are you willing to use this fragile life as a bet to fight for hope?" ”
The child leaned on Xiao Zhi's arms and felt the warmth, he was too young to learn to laugh, but he just stretched out his little hand and gently stroked Xiao Zhi's arm, which ...... Are you willing to fight? Xiao Zhi's eyelashes drooped, and he tore the thin sheet into long strips, changed the swaddling clothes to resemble a backpack, and hung the child on his back......
He thought for a while, rolled the woman out with a straw sweep, dug a hole with an axe in the open space outside the door, buried the woman in it, and inserted a piece of wood on it, on which he carved the words "Tomb of the Unknown".
casually began to dispose of the corpses of the wolves, skinned and dismantled the bones, picked up the dead branches and made a fire, fortunately, the small items such as lighters and filters were carried with me and were not taken away by pieces of paper, and the Swiss Army knife hanging from the waist was also there, which was very useful when skinning the wolf. Dry a few wolf skins on a branch and dry them at high temperatures, then spread them in a small backpack to keep your child warm.
The wolf meat was grilled on the fire, making a sizzling sound, Xiao Zhi's seasoning was all in the backpack that was deducted by the piece of paper, although the taste would be a lot worse but it could fill the stomach, and the remaining pieces of meat, he put it on the fire and roasted it slowly, drying the moisture inside, and it could last for a while in such a dry weather without rotting.
The firelight was particularly conspicuous in the night, and soon attracted a group of hungry people who came out of nowhere, and their skinny and skinny appearance was no different from that of the dead. ”
The axe stuck to the ground, marking a trace, making these hungry people stagnate, Xiao Zhi said lightly: "This is wolf meat, and it was cut off from five wolves, when the moon just rose, they were still alive, you might as well guess how they died......"
The axe was covered with dried blood, which made the hearts of these hungry people panic, and one of the middle-aged people looked back and forth between the axe and the wolf meat, and finally gritted his teeth: "No matter how powerful he is, there is only one person, six of us can win against one person, and he is also carrying a child, we have a chance to win, let's go!" ”
The hungry man who was originally frightened suddenly became ready to move, Xiao Zhi frowned, he didn't like this kind of random agitation of others' existence, picked up a stone and threw it at this man, smashing it back a few steps, plus the hunger in his belly, he couldn't stand up for a while......
There was too much wolf meat, and he couldn't take it all away alone, so he simply took a few pieces of meat from the branches, cut them into dozens of pieces with a Swiss army knife and threw them at these hungry people: "Eat slowly, you will be hungry for a long time, and it is easy to hurt your stomach if you eat too quickly." But few people could hear what he was saying, and they all threw themselves together and fought for the meat......
