Chapter 222: Salt Ore

Such a big movement naturally woke everyone up.

Everyone ran cautiously towards this side with weapons in hand, with a hint of nervousness on their faces, and anyone who saw a ferocious giant bird hovering overhead, seemed to be ready to choose someone to devour, and their faces could not remain calm.

"What's wrong?" Huang Jiahui quickly glanced at the hovering giant bird in the sky, and asked with some trepidation.

"Something in trouble, I killed its partner." For Huang Jiahui, Luo Yuan naturally had nothing to hide, he said with a gloomy face: "These days, you should be careful, I am worried that this strange bird has already hated us and may retaliate at any time." ”

As the giant bird circles regularly, the sun is obscured by the giant bird's wings from time to time, making the light and shade below change, and the wind does not stop, making people feel great pressure.

In particular, there was a sharp cry like weeping blood, everyone's face was ugly, and the atmosphere was depressing.

"Boss Luo, can't you solve it?" Huo Dong asked cautiously.

"I can handle it, but as long as it's in the sky, there's nothing I can do." Speaking of this, Luo Yuan paused and continued: "Unless you lure it down. ”

Perhaps, the strange bird lost its patience, at this time it circled a few times, and suddenly its body pressed down from mid-air, and its wings flapped violently, causing a strong wind, within a radius of one kilometer, as if it instantly set off a typhoon of seven or eight magnitudes, and for a time it flew sand and rocks, and the smoke and dust filled the sky, making people unable to open their eyes.

Just when Luo Yuan thought that the other party was about to attack, it suddenly flapped its wings and flew high, and a few breaths turned into a small dot that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, and then disappeared without a trace.

"Finally gone!" Cao Lin sighed and relaxed all of a sudden.

"It's not that simple, just like Boss Luo just said, many mutant beasts have a strong sense of revenge, and after being injured, although they ran away at the time, they will come to retaliate as soon as they recover from their injuries.

What's more serious is that there seems to be a mysterious connection between some high-level mutant beasts, and when the time comes, we may have to deal with more than one mutant bird, but a group, these days are the key, we must be careful, don't be careless! Xia Lian Chang's face darkened a little and said, as if he had thought of something bad.

Luo Yuan nodded and said: "That's right, although this possibility is very low, but you must prepare for the worst, these days, everyone should not go out for the time being, and stock up on enough water and food first." ”

The wisdom of mutant creatures, Luo Yuan has never dared to underestimate them, they can often do things that make humans unbelievable, not to mention the existence of a special plant such as the Wisdom Tree, Luo Yuan no longer dares to be confident, and human IQ can beat mutant beasts.

……

Although this giant bird has a wingspan of more than 30 meters, when hovering in the air, it is like a huge curtain, covering the sky and the sun, which is extremely terrifying, but it weighs only one or two tons, which is not much heavier than the giants. This is also the natural disadvantage of birds compared to terrestrial creatures, and they can only weigh each other between weight and flight speed.

After the giant bird was divided by Luo Yuan, it was taken away one by one, and even all the feathers were collected for other purposes.

Luo Yuan had just identified that this was a pale green-level creature, and this was the first time he had collected such a high-grade bird feather, which was extremely precious.

However, it is difficult for a creature of this level to attract the attention of the system, and there was not even a prompt from the system before.

A wry smile appeared on his face, and he found that it was becoming more and more difficult to move up the ranks.

……

Everyone's faces were tired and their eyes were bloodshot, but everyone knew that the stakes were high, and the slightest risk of living in this primeval forest was enough to cause heavy casualties.

After bringing back the corpse of the giant bird, they took a large amount of water from the waterhole and poured it into a pit in the middle of the grotto.

As for the wood, there is no shortage at all, the wood cut by the giants is still piled up like a hill next to the fire pit, and after the nearby high temperature day and night, the wood has been completely dried, dry and cracked, and has become extremely dry and flammable.

In just two hours, all the survival materials were ready, enough for everyone to live for ten days and half a month without leaving home. The group is all from the end of the world, and this way of stockpiling food for the winter like a squirrel is familiar to everyone and has rich experience.

It may seem like a bit of a fuss, but it's normal in everyone's eyes. People in peace, unable to understand the psychology of the last days, to use a figurative metaphor, that is, the frightened bird, which is an extremely insecure psychological state.

The slightest disturbance, whether it is dangerous or not, is to save oneself first and then say, without waiting and watching in advance, this way of behavior has almost been integrated into the deep bone marrow, with few exceptions.

Because most people who don't have this mentality have already died in the last days.

…………

At this time, Luo Yuan had the leisure to take a closer look at the newly occupied camp with a victorious attitude.

This grotto is very large, and because it is inhabited by giants, it seems very empty to everyone.

This is the largest of all the grottoes, and the giants who inhabit it (a large number of giants inhabited by each grotto) are obviously not of low status, and it is likely that there are tribal chiefs among them.

It is about six meters high, with an area of thousands of square meters, and the whole space is supported by twenty-four huge stone pillars up to three or four meters thick, which looks like a primitive roughness and magnificence.

Around the wall, there are still traces of axes and chisels, and it is hard to believe that a giant who was born less than two years ago could dig up such a magnificent building.

There were still some simple graffiti on the walls, perhaps frescoes, or perhaps primitive texts, because they were so rough and rudimentary that he could not tell what they were drawing, but some patterns that resembled the shape of a ball or a crescent moon made him guess, but he had little leisure or interest in guessing the meaning.

In addition, he also found a large number of primitive tools, mostly wood and stone, and some beast teeth, due to the limited strength of the giant itself, most of these materials are not of high grade, at most only light green level, which is not very attractive to him.

This is the end of the exploration, for human beings, this simple civilization, its shallow background is almost clear at a glance, there is not the slightest secret.

"Hey, you guys come over and see what this is?" At this time, Wang Xiaguang suddenly said in surprise.

Luo Yuan deliberately adjusted the frequency of his footsteps and walked over "slowly", but the speed was still faster than ordinary people.

It is a grayish-white rock nearly half a meter high, with dense crystalline clusters on the surface, one of which seems to be rubbed frequently, making it appear extremely smooth.

Without waiting for Luo Yuan's identification, Wang Xiaguang had already picked up a piece of gray-black particles the size of marbles with a dagger, stretched out his pink tongue and licked it lightly in Luo Yuan's surprised gaze, and then put it in his mouth.

"Spit it out, you don't want to die!" Luo Yuan's face changed slightly, and he stood up openly, pinching her mouth like lightning, trying to make her spit it out.

"Let go...... Me, you've hurt me, salty, salty, salty, salty! Wang Xiaguang danced with her hands, pushing hard with both hands, but she didn't vomit, Luo Yuan was afraid of hurting her, so she didn't dare to use force, she broke free from it, and said loudly.

"What? Salt! ”

Luo Yuan hurriedly squatted down and used an identification technique.

"Salt ore is also known as rock salt"

"Material: sodium chloride 70%; Magnesium chloride 15%, calcium chloride 11%, calcium carbonate 3%

"Rarity: Gray."

"Weight: 355kg."

"Attribute: None."

"Comment: This is a piece of rock salt with a lot of impurities!"

When Luo Yuan appraised, everyone had already gathered around.

"Salty, indeed salt!"

"Such a big piece of salt!"

Taking advantage of this gap, some people can't wait to dig out a piece and stuff it into their mouths.

When Luo Yuan stood up, when he saw this scene, he didn't know what to say, not only Wang Xiaguang and others, but even Huang Jiahui, who was the most cautious in the ordinary, also took a piece and put it in his mouth, so that he wanted to grab a piece and taste it, what it tasted like.

The lack of salt has lasted for nearly a week, and on a regular basis, you can also replenish salt by drinking a lot of mutated blood, and these days, with the sharp rise in temperature, the human body sweats almost all the time, and sweat makes a lot of salt loss. Drinking blood to replenish salt is already a drop in the bucket, and as the concentration of body fluids continues to decrease, some people have begun to experience mild symptoms of dehydration and weakness, and develop an extreme thirst for salt.

Now when I see such a large piece of salt, it is like a beggar whose eyes are green from hunger after not eating for several days, and suddenly finds a piece of steamed bread, how can he continue to turn a blind eye.

That is, Luo Yuan, who usually doesn't sweat much, can still maintain basic composure.

PS: There should be another chapter in the evening, ask for a recommendation.
