Hunter Academy Chapter 55 Finding a Water Source
After Xia Yuan and the four of them landed on the ground, they observed the surrounding environment, and now because of the disturbance of the airship, there was no trace of any animals around.
But they all knew that it was temporary, and that it would not be long before the disturbed animals would return, and then there would be deer and apes all over the hills.
They had landed in a vast valley, and where they were now was a small meadow, one of the few places in the Black Whispering Forest that was not shaded by trees.
"What are we going to do now?" Xia Yuan looked at the time, it was now more than ten o'clock, and there was still some time before noon.
"We have to find a suitable place to live first, preferably on a flat ground, close to a water source, and a place with a relatively open view, where we will build a small camp, and if there is no accident in the future, we will live there until the end of the training." Jiang Yun is more experienced, and when he was on Earth, he often went out to hunt, and sometimes he would live in the wild for a period of time.
"Okay, we'll do as you say, we'll look around now, and if we can meet a suitable prey on the way, we can take a chance to shoot it by the way, just as lunch." Xia Yuan made a decision immediately.
"Let's split up, in pairs, it's quicker." Hank suggested.
Xia Yuan thought for a moment.
"Forget it, we are specially arranged here, there must be a mystery in it, today is the first day, we are not familiar with the environment, it is better to act together, after all, safety first."
Xia Yuan said his considerations, he dared to guarantee that they were targeted must be because of him, only he offended others as soon as school started, although he himself was not afraid of anything, but he didn't want Hank and them to suffer from his own burden.
Hank was frightened into a cold sweat when he heard his words, he had just seen the vastness of the Black Whispering Forest, and he had forgotten for a moment that there was such a thing.
"Mulder, it must be Mulder, he is the president of the student council of our academy, and he is the only one who has such great energy and motivation." Hank affirmed.
"Mulder? Shouldn't he have been scared by my dad, and dared to have such a big revenge? Xia Yuan was a little unsure, Lily had told him that Mudder would never dare to take revenge on him blatantly, because if he dared to do so, his father would definitely not let him go.
If this is arranged by him, it will be the rhythm of ending together, and the enmity between the two will not reach this point.
Yes, Mulder's action is really too big, it is equivalent to blatantly saying to everyone again, this is my revenge on Xia Yuan, this is what I did.
Hank and the others also couldn't figure it out, "Maybe there aren't as many conspiracies in this matter as we thought, maybe this place is just slightly more dangerous than other places, it's just that he uses his power to embarrass you a little, after all, no matter how great his energy is, it is impossible to put us outside the prescribed area of the training." ”
Xia Yuan nodded when he heard this, he also felt that the chances of this were better, unless Mudder was crazy.
Perhaps this was the brilliance of Mulder's plan, his real plan wrapped in several layers of cloak.
He wanted to embarrass Xia Yuan and arrange him here, this is normal, this is the most dangerous area, he sent the strongest Caroline, this is also normal, Caroline is gluttonous, everyone will take the initiative to send her some food, he also sent a cow leg to her, this is also normal, under the wrapping of several very normal things, it basically can't be exposed.
In the eyes of outsiders, he just arranged Xia Yuan to this most dangerous area, and then there was no other action.
Jiang Yun, who has more social experience, always feels that something is wrong, there are some old sayings in Huaxia, the most dangerous place is the safest place, the more obvious Mu De's actions, the more he feels that there is a ghost in it, but he can't think of where this ghost is.
"Whatever the hell this is, let's be careful, let's act together now." Jiang Yun said.
Xia Yuan and the three of them nodded, but decided to act together.
He decided to act together, but how to find a suitable place made Xia Yuan worry again, and he had no experience at all.
Fortunately, there is also Jiang Yun, "Now we have to find the water source first, the water source is generally easier to find, and after finding the water source, it is easier to find a suitable place nearby." ”
"It seems that this is going to be handed over to you, you can find it according to your experience, we will follow you, by the way, pay attention to the surrounding environment, and see if there is suitable prey." Xia Yuan naturally threw this important task to Jiang Yun, and arranged an idle errand for himself by the way.
What else can Jiang Yun do, these three people don't know anything, anyway, they are going together, and it is more quiet for him to look for alone.
"In the mountains and forests, water sources mostly exist at the foot of mountains, mountain streams, cliffs, basins, valley bottoms, etc., and we generally have to look for these kinds of places, and now we are in a valley, so we can go to the depths of the valley." Jiang Yun looked around, chose the direction, and then explained.
Xia Yuan and the three of them also listened carefully, keeping in their hearts, this knowledge will definitely be used in the future, and hunters will inevitably be active in the wild.
Jiang Yun continued to explain as he walked.
If you can hear these sounds, it means that you are not far from the place where there is a water source, and it can be proved that the water source here is flowing living water, which can be drunk directly, but special attention should be paid to not taking the "whooshing" sound of the wind blowing leaves as the sound of running water. ”
This is a very useful and effective method, and the three of Xia Yuan all pricked up their ears after hearing this, paying attention to whether they could hear the sound of water.
Jiang Yun continued: "Another thing is to use your sense of smell to smell the smell of moisture as much as possible, or the smell of dirt and aquatic plants brought by the wind, and then you can generally find a water source along the direction of the smell. ”
Hank was overjoyed when he heard this, his sense of smell is his strong point, and as a werewolf race, the most outstanding thing about him is his sense of smell.
"Leave the smell to me, as long as the water source is within a kilometer of us, then I can smell it." Hank said, patting his chest.
"Oh, that's good, the time it takes us to find the water source is much shorter, and we can't hear the sound of the water flowing so far." Jiang Yun said happily.
Because of Hank's sense of smell, the four of them could move much faster, and it was much easier for him to distinguish the smell of damp earth than it was to hear the sound of water in the woods.
"Stop! I smelled the smell of dirt. Hank said with a sudden pause.
The three of them were overjoyed to hear the news, and stopped waiting for Hank to identify the source of the scent.
Hank closed his eyes, carefully discerning the direction the smell was coming from, and after a while he opened his eyes and pointed to the right in the direction they were heading.
"That's about it, let's just go in this direction, and I'll be able to find a specific place when we get closer."
When the three of them heard this, they did not hesitate and continued in the direction indicated by Hank.
