Blue sky, white clouds, snow, forests.

The scenery is like a fresh oil painting, full of colors and beautiful.

However, a hand, like a zombie emerging from the ground, suddenly broke through the snow and destroyed this rare beauty.

"Mmmm......mmmm

Chen Zheng struggled out of the snowdrift in embarrassment, his head and face were covered with snow, and even his eyebrows were covered with snow foam, and he could cos Santa Claus when he changed his clothes.

"Phew!"

Spit out the snow slag in his mouth, and Chen Zheng, who crawled out of the snowdrift, held the pendant in his hand and lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.

Just now, for some reason, the pendant that had been unresponsive was suddenly activated, and after climbing out of the snowdrift, the pendant had lost its luster again, as if everything before was Chen Zheng's illusion. But the collapsed snow cave really told him that everything just now was a real fact.

However, no matter how hard Chen Zheng held the pendant, it didn't react at all, let alone a lightsaber, and even the faint blue light from before didn't flicker.

After trying for a few minutes and still no response, Chen Zheng had to put down the matter and hang the pendant around his neck again, because there was not much time left for him, and every minute wasted would be less time to search for prey, and the hope of survival would become even slimmer.

After cleaning up the residual snow on his body, Chen Zheng came to the fire that was extinguished yesterday to find an ember, but unfortunately, he didn't know if it was because it was too cold last night, and the embers that should have burned until morning were already cold.

Fortunately, the fire drill was made yesterday, and it was still used yesterday's plank, and after reopening a groove, I stepped on the plank and drilled it for less than a minute, and the hot debris ignited the fire velvet.

Re-lit the fire and boiled the snow water, Chen Zheng picked up the bark fibers that had been drying overnight and slowly rubbed them.

Rotating, twisting, tightening, rotating......

After a few minutes, Chen Zheng decided to give up for the time being.

The efficiency of twisting the rope completely by hand is too low, so it may not be able to frustrate the rope long enough when it gets dark, and after thinking about it for a while, I decided to get a piece of wood and make a simple rope tool, which is the so-called sharpening knife and not cutting wood.

"Do...... Do......"

The dagger slashed at the trunk of the tree that had gone white, making a crisp sound. The bark on the trunk had long since been stripped of the fruit of his labor yesterday as it approached dark.

Although the movements in his hands did not stop, Chen Zheng still couldn't help but recall the events of this morning.

Why is the lightsaber activated?

No, you have to think about it from a different perspective......

Between activations...... Is there anything in common?

Chen Zheng's mind is full of these things.

Suddenly!

"Duh!!"

A crisp and loud sound of gold and wood striking woke Chen Zheng from his contemplative state.

Hey?

Stuck?

Chen Zheng tugged out and pulled the dagger...... Didn't even pull it!?

The dagger was already stuck deep in the trunk.

The giant wood that has stood here for many years is very hard, and the diameter is too thick, and the combination of knives and sticks is also very unpleasant, the dagger has a short edge, and the wooden stick is too light, each blow can only cut a few millimeters of wood fibers, and it takes a long time to repeatedly cut a deep enough groove in the trunk.

But now, the dagger has actually sunk into the trunk of the tree! Even though Chen Zheng pulled out very hard, the dagger still didn't move!

“…… What's going on? ”

Chen Zheng looked at his hands and was stunned.

"Just ......"

Suddenly, he realized something, took out the crystal pendant and put it in the palm of his hand, and then ......

…… It emits a faint blue light.

"How ?!? That"

Chen Zheng was overjoyed in his heart, but as his mood fluctuated, the faint blue light also dissipated.

“……”

Then, the feeling that he couldn't activate the crystal pendant no matter how hard he tried, returned.

What the hell just happened!?

Chen Zheng simply sat down, playing with the crystal pendant in his hand and pondering.

"Maybe it's ......"

He took a deep breath, calmed down again, and then immersed himself again in that chaotic state of no sorrow and no joy, and then ...... The "silver core" that was suspected to be condensed by the "Milky Way" in the dream and the "stars" surrounding it resurfaced in Chen Zheng's mind.

"Could it be...... Such? ”

The "star" surrounding the "silver core" trembled slightly, as if it had been pushed by something, and the speed suddenly increased! Soon a trail of light was drawn that was impossible to see.

As the speed of the "star" revolved, the light on the pendant in Chen Zheng's hand suddenly became stronger, and even penetrated through his fist! Then the halo did not spread, but condensed around Chen Zheng's fist, extending and converging in the direction of his tiger's mouth...... Finally, it turns into a familiar and unfamiliar lightsaber!

"Buzz ————"

Chen Zheng carefully maintained this meditative state, and the light saber in his hand swung horizontally, and the thin blade of light like a cicada's wings slashed across the trunk of the tree without resistance, leaving a thin mark that was almost indistinguishable to the naked eye.

The blue light under Chen Zheng's eyes flickered slightly, and the lightsaber in his hand cut vertically into the trunk of the tree, cutting diagonally until the horizontal stripes were cut out before.

Lightsaber in one hand and nudge with the left.

A large triangular piece of wood detached from the trunk so easily.

The lightsaber is about one meter and a half long, and the "sawdust" cut down is insignificant for a giant tree with more than 20 people hugging it, but for Chen Zheng, this efficiency is not just one or two hundred times over! This efficiency is a leap forward!

Chen Zheng was like a child who had received a novelty toy, excitedly wielding a light blade and slashing at the trunk of the tree. At first, the lightsaber was very smooth when wielding, but as the number of times he cut the trunk increased, Chen Zheng gradually struggled, until he didn't know how many times he swung the sword, he suddenly felt a wave of dizziness, and the lightsaber in his hand flashed slightly as if it was out of power, and then extinguished.

“…… Hmmm......"

Chen Zheng suddenly squatted down holding his stomach and spit out a mouthful of sour water. The intense dizziness made him feel like the world was spinning around his head when he stood up a little, as if the whole world was spinning wildly around his head.

His stomach, which had not been satisfied, was even more burning, and even his throat became hot - the high-concentration acid water just now obviously hurt his throat.

After resting for twenty minutes with his back against the trunk of the tree, Chen Zheng eased up, slowly got up and got himself some hot water to drink.

The warm liquid ran down his throat and into his stomach, moistening his smoking throat and stomach that was already overwhelmed.

The gurgling bowels would sound loudly every ten seconds, as if to protest loudly against why they hadn't been filled.

Hungry.

Chen Zheng had never been so hungry.

If there was someone standing in front of him now, he wondered if he would pounce on him and bite hard......

I really want to eat something!

Chen Zheng's eyes glowed green.
