Zhao Xiaochuan is just 17 years old this year.

In the old days of legend, this age should have been spent carefree on campus.

Today, however, almost the entire world has become a wasteland, and humanity has long since fallen from the top of the food chain, barely surviving in settlements, towns, and shelters. All kinds of terrifying beasts have occupied most of this world.

Not to mention going to school, there are even many children who do not live to be seventeen years old.

So Zhao Xiaochuan felt that he was lucky enough.

For as long as he can remember, Zhao Xiaochuan has been living with his father. Dad has always said that he is a wild child he picked up, and Zhao Xiaochuan didn't like to hear such a statement at first, but it doesn't matter after a long time.

In this era when no one knows whether they will survive to the next day, it doesn't matter whether they are picked up or not. Until his father died four years ago, Zhao Xiaochuan was not very sure whether he was the old guy's species. But anyway, I have the surname Zhao with that old guy, and that's enough.

In Zhao Xiaochuan's eyes, in addition to not being a martial artist and not having good combat effectiveness, Daddy is simply omnipotent in other aspects!

For example, what Zhao Xiaochuan is doing now is to first look for prey, then set up road signs, find a way to hide nearby, and then wait for the hunting team to appear to hunt the prey, unravel the prey, seal and pack the valuable things away, and the remaining fragmented bones, meat fat, and blood stains of very low value buried in the soil will enter Zhao Xiaochuan's sealed box.

Although the nutritional value is extremely low, and there is even a hint of nausea when eating, this is the biggest dependence of Zhao Xiaochuan to survive!

These are all survival skills that Dad taught Zhao Xiaochuan, and it doesn't seem to be very difficult, but the amount of knowledge involved is simply huge!

First of all, Zhao Xiaochuan has to learn all kinds of hidden methods, and then he has to learn to identify and make various road signs, and at the same time, he also has to know how to find prey. Even he had to have a certain understanding of the means of unplaning, collecting and sealing. Finally, and most hardest, is patience and the ability to starve!

The time of waiting for the hunting team is boring and long, and during this time, Zhao Xiaochuan must not make the slightest movement, so as not to alarm the prey and cause accidents!

It can be said that if Zhao Xiaochuan can become a martial artist, then he is an all-round talent that various hunting teams compete for! But it's a pity that Zhao Xiaochuan has never been able to become a martial artist. And in the case of not being able to become a martial artist, Zhao Xiaochuan will never let others know what he is capable of!

Hiding is also a skill to survive in the wasteland, and sometimes the enemy is not only the beast!

Humanity is even more terrifying!

In fact, when he was young, what his father first taught Zhao Xiaochuan was the method of exercising his physique and breathing cultivation.

I don't know why, although my dad is not a martial artist, he has a complete set of exercises!

And if you want to become a martial artist, you must not only have a strong physique, but also need to cultivate a special breathing method to accumulate a strange energy in your body.

Dad said that in the old days, the Chinese people called this energy "internal force", but now it is called "yuan energy".

For Zhao Xiaochuan, exercising his physique is a breeze, and he was able to lift hundreds of pounds of objects with his bare hands when he was very young!

But he has not been able to cultivate the Tuna Method.

Every time he felt what his father said, between a breath and an inhalation, a kind of energy generated from his abdomen, he couldn't control that energy, he could only watch this energy, from the position of the lower abdomen, all the way up, in a way that he couldn't understand, into his brain, and... Return to nothingness!

And if you want to become a martial artist, in addition to the training of the body, you must also reach the level where you can control the Yuan Energy!

So in the end, in desperation, Dad turned to teach him various ways to survive in the wasteland.

"11 minutes and 42 seconds! The hunting team led by the senior martial artist Li Shan is really well-trained! ”

Zhao Xiaochuan silently counted the time, this can be regarded as a special ability of his, the control of time is almost perverted, which is also his biggest reliance on surviving in the wasteland over the years!

And Li Shan can be regarded as a celebrity in the small town where he lives, and it is naturally impossible for Zhao Xiaochuan not to know him! And the hunting team he led only took 11 minutes and 42 seconds to hunt the two-headed cow, to dissect the carcass, seal and pack, and bury the remaining two-headed cow remains, which is already extremely fast.

Not long after, under the leadership of Li Shan, all the people in the hunting team disappeared from Zhao Xiaochuan's sight.

"Wait two more minutes!" Zhao Xiaochuan silently calculated the time in his heart: "120....60....5, 4, 3, 2, 1!" Now is the time! ”

The two minutes are used to observe whether the hunting team will return, and whether the previous smell of blood will attract other fierce beasts!

These two minutes are a luxury for Zhao Xiaochuan! But it's especially important!

And when the time of two minutes arrives, every second that follows is extremely precious for Zhao Xiaochuan!

Brush!

With an arrow step, Zhao Xiaochuan suddenly jumped up from the swamp, didn't care about the mire stuck to his body, and rushed towards the wreckage of the two-headed cow!

Fifteen seconds, Zhao Xiaochuan came to the burial point of the remains of the two-headed cow, and then quickly took out the small shovel he carried with him from his shoulder bag!

The little shovel is not big, only the size of a palm, but it is already the most valuable thing on Zhao Xiaochuan's body!

In this era, whether it is iron or other metal products, it is an extremely precious existence, and this small shovel, which is only the size of a palm, can even be exchanged for enough food for an adult man to eat for half a month in a human settlement!

And Zhao Xiaochuan's little shovel was left to him by his father.

"Digging! Three minutes! From the time I dig up the remains of the two-headed cow, I must leave here within three minutes with the most valuable things, or else the bloody smell of the remains of the two-headed cow will most likely attract other beasts! ”

Three minutes is the experience that Zhao Xiaochuan has gained with countless times of risking his life over the years!

As the shovel continued to excavate, the rancid smell carried by the dirt on the wasteland, mixed with the bloody smell of the remains of the two-headed cow, mixed together, rushed straight into Zhao Xiaochuan's nose.

The empty stomach once again had a strong feeling of nausea, but Zhao Xiaochuan still did not show the slightest discomfort and disgust, these are enough to make normal people faint, in Zhao Xiaochuan's eyes, it seems to be proof that he is still alive in this era that seems to have been abandoned!

And the more he dug, the more pleased Zhao Xiaochuan's face became!

And so it was! Li Shan's hunting team is the kind of relatively wealthy hunting team, in order not to waste time, so the internal organs of the two-headed cow were not adequately treated, and only took away the heart and liver, which are relatively high value, such as the stomach and intestines, which are not of high value, and the rich people in the shelter do not look down on the sewage, and they are not treated and taken away! ”

This is definitely the biggest harvest for Zhao Xiaochuan from childhood to adulthood, although they are all wreckage abandoned by some hunting teams, but for him, it is definitely a huge wealth!

"There's so much wreckage, I can't take them all! Dad once said that the cow has four stomachs, which are called hairy tripies, and it should be able to sell for some money when it comes to Blackbeard, and there are also cow intestines, which should also be sold for some money if it is cleaned, after all, the cold winter period is coming, and I still have to save a little money for the winter! ”

While digging, Zhao Xiaochuan thought about what he wanted to take away, but after he dug out most of the remains of the two-headed cow, he suddenly felt a slight shock in his head, and the whole person was in a trance!

"What's the situation? Could it be that I haven't replenished energy for a long time, causing problems in my body? ”

Zhao Xiaochuan was slightly stunned, and suddenly at this time, a voice appeared in his mind without warning:

【Ding! If you find the remains of a ferocious beast with more than 1 energy point, will you sacrifice it? 】

"What sound? Don't... Am I really hungry and hallucinating? ”
