Chapter 137: Life Sucks
Night!
The sky was thundering and torrential.
Bean-sized raindrops hit the leaves with a rustling sound.
As soon as Luo Yuan got out of the cave, he was soaked by the heavy rain, and the monitor lizard lying nearby lay quietly in the heavy rain, and the rain slid down the smooth scales on his body, and the place where he lay almost formed a small pond.
Luo Yuan glanced at the monitor lizard that slept even in the heavy rain, and rushed into the rain, he shuttled through the jungle, he quickly found a boulder, the chopping knife quickly cut a few times on the boulder, and the whole stone was cut into a circle with a diameter of forty or fifty centimeters by him.
He took another large tree machete, chose one of them, hollowed out the center of the tree, and soon made a simple wooden barrel.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, the rain kept leaving on his face, he could barely open his eyes, he simply stripped naked, and let the torrential rain wash over his scarred body, since he came out, he hadn't taken a shower for two days, his body was covered with sweat and blood, and his body was faintly stinking.
After he finished taking a bath, the barrel was also filled with water in the heavy rain, Luo Yuan put on his clothes again, carried a bucket of water and a stone ball, and quickly returned to the cave.
The fire in the cave kept burning, although it was not yet dawn, but everyone did not go to sleep again, even Wang Xiaguang, who was extremely weak, opened his eyes at this time, looking at the ceiling blankly, and the atmosphere in the hall was particularly dull.
Luo Yuan took off his clothes again, and shook them a few times, this set of clothes made of storm bird feathers was already dry in an instant, and there was no sign of being rained anymore. He redressed, cut the ball in the middle, hollowed it out, made a cauldron of stone, set it on the fire, and poured water.
Huang Jiahui and Cao Lin had already taken over and cleaned all the strips of cloth they could find.
The flame greedily licked the bottom of the stone pot, and after ten minutes, the water was boiled, and Huang Jiahui put all the strips of cloth into the stone pot, sterilized it at high temperature, and boiled it for more than ten minutes before taking it out.
The water in the stone pot had turned grayish-black.
After Huo Dong poured the used water out of the cave, he boiled the pot again, washing the cloth strips repeatedly until the cloth strips were washed white.
Then everyone carefully washed the wounds, the strips of cloth were scrubbed again and again, and in the middle, Lin Xiaoji went outside to carry water five times, and waited until they each wiped the wounds with blood, and finally wrapped it.
There is a shortage of medical treatment here, and if it is difficult to ensure even basic hygiene, with the harsh environment of the last days, I am afraid that even death will not be clear.
Wang Xiaguang's body was so weak that he couldn't even stand up, and he couldn't handle it by himself, Huang Jiahui was worried that Luo Yuan would do it, so he had to do it himself.
After scrubbing Wang Xiaguang's body and wrapping the wounds, she found that her body couldn't stop trembling, her lips were a little purple, she touched the clothes behind her, it was a little damp, and the hay under her body was already damp.
She turned over the hay, and the mud underneath was so wet that it was almost muddy, and she hurriedly took all the hay and put it under her.
Wang Xiaguang looked at Huang Jiahui, who was constantly busy, and her lips trembled: "Thank you, thank you!" ”
Huang Jiahui sighed, her heart was mixed, she turned around and walked to the corner, poured a bowl of the blood that Luo Yuan had collected before, brought it to her, asked her to take it, and said softly: "If you want to thank Luo Yuan, he asked me to take care of you." ”
After drinking the blood of the dark blue-level mutant beast, Wang Xiaguang's clammy and cold body became hot, and her spirit immediately improved a lot, she looked at Huang Jiahui with a complicated expression: "But I still want to thank you." ”
Huang Jiahui paused, turned around and left.
…………
Such heavy rain is obviously not suitable for travel, not to mention that most of the people are still injured.
Even Luo Yuan is a little better than yesterday, but as long as the movement is a little more violent, he will be in severe pain.
Water droplets kept dripping from the mud walls overhead, falling to the wooden barrels one by one, making a ticking sound, which made people a little irritated to hear.
The crypt had become more and more wet, leaking everywhere, and the ground had turned into a muddy field.
Luo Yuan had carefully examined the entire long cave and found several dangers, but overall it was not serious. The cave is of good quality and the location is excellent, the soil where the mutant beast cave is located is not a soft gravel floor, but a very sticky soil that is not easy to collapse.
But that's not the only problem that arises, and the firewood soon runs out.
The forest is already cold, not to mention this rainy weather, the damp cold wind is constantly blowing from the mouth of the cave, if there is no fire, many people simply can't bear it. And I hadn't eaten much for the whole day, and my stomach was already so hungry that my chest was pressed against my back.
Lin Xiaoji went out once, but he didn't bring anything back, and even the insects hid in the woods on a rainy day, and with his ability to survive in the wild, it was obviously a difficult thing to find its hiding place.
Luo Yuan didn't move, after all, he was not a nanny, it was impossible for him to do everything, and now there was not much danger outside, it was time to train them.
Seeing that Luo Yuan had no intention of going out, several men went out one after another to look for food, and the vicinity of the cave was turned over three feet to the ground, and it was not until near noon that several people were lucky enough to dig up a bunch of egg-sized eggs.
Several women looked at the eggs and seemed to think of maggots again, their faces turned pale for a while, Cao Lin and Huang Jiahui endured the nausea, washed the eggs, put them in a stone pot, and cooked them. As the water temperature rises, some eggs even begin to hatch, but are quickly killed by the higher and higher temperatures.
But in the last days, people's endurance is not comparable to before, although I feel disgusting, but everyone still insists on eating, even Wang Shishi is not excluded, in fact, until I eat it, I found that this food is not difficult to eat, most of the eggs are protein, and because of the mutated creatures, the meat is tough and chewy.
This time there was also very little food, but I was not as hungry as before.
Luo Yuan played with the bark of the Tianzhu Tree in his hand, and he was a little hesitant in his heart. No matter how it mutates, the bark is made of plant fibers, which determines that it has more than toughness, and the rigidity is insufficient.
But it's a pity not to synthesize it on a horse chopping knife.
This was Luo Yuan's first contact with such a high-grade material, and it was very likely that he would not be able to touch it for a long time.
Moreover, the sharpness of the horse chopping knife is becoming less and less, even when facing dark blue-level creatures, it is a little stretched, and each attack consumes a lot of will, let alone encountering more powerful creatures.
The bark is synthesized into a horse chopping knife, and the sharpness may not increase too much at the last time, but at least it will be stronger than the horse chopper at the dark blue level.
At the end of the day, it's a choice between defense and offense!
Luo Yuan hesitated for a long time, but finally decided to synthesize it into a horse chopping knife.
No matter how strong the defense of thin clothes is, when attacked by mutant beasts, it will not play a big role, on the contrary, once the attack power is strong, it can have an immediate effect.
"The Bark of the Pillar Tree"
"Rarity: Green."
"Weight: 21kg."
"Additional Ability: Energy Absorption;"
"Comments: The Pillar Tree is a magical creature that can absorb any energy, including life. Even in the harshest environment, it can grow quickly, and its epidermis is tough, extremely defensive, and can absorb a certain amount of energy, which is a high-strength defense material. ”
Luo Yuan identified it again, and then under the gaze of everyone, he put the bark on the horse chopping knife.
It is no secret that he can synthesize the materials of mutated creatures into weapons and clothes, and even if he sees it, he will think in the direction that Luo Yuan is a special evolutionary, and there is no need to keep it secret.
Luo Yuan meditated on the synthesis, and immediately, the dark bark color gradually faded.
This time the synthesis time was far greater than any before, Luo Yuan stared at the horse chopping knife with a serious face, the dark blue on its surface slowly faded, and a fine layer of dark blue powder appeared on the blade, and the whole knife exuded a terrifying high temperature.
When the mud touches the blade, a sizzling steam comes out!
Everyone looked at this magical scene without blinking, with a look of disbelief on their faces, but no one dared to speak out at this time, for fear of interfering with Luo Yuan's use of evolution ability, and the surroundings seemed extremely quiet.
The whole process lasted for half an hour, and under the shocked gaze of everyone, the bark of the Tianzhu tree turned into a piece of flying ash, and Luo Yuan gently blew away the dark blue powder on the knife, revealing a black horse chopping knife.
This black color seems to be able to absorb light, and the ground where the knife is located is faintly dimmed even by the firelight, giving people an unusually mysterious feeling.
Luo Yuan took the horse chopping knife and found that the knife was much heavier, almost three times heavier, but it was barely enough for his thirteen-point strength, he held the knife with both hands and quickly slashed at the air a few times.
The air is cut at high speed, making a slight clattering sound.
Because the movement was too fast, everyone didn't see whether his hand had moved, let alone the knife, but they had already become accustomed to Luo Yuan, and they couldn't afford to wave it in their hearts.
Luo Yuan stopped moving, a hint of nervousness flashed on his face, he took a deep breath, and performed an identification technique on the horse chopping knife.
"The knife that reaps life."
"Material: 165cm alloy, Tianzhu bark"
"Rarity: Green."
"Weight: 15kg."
"Attack: 30-34"
"Side Effect 1: Attack Speed +1
"Collateral Effect 2: Life Suck (Passive), absorbs a certain amount of life active energy to the attacker, and compensates the holder."
"Equipment Requirements: 14 Strength"
"Evaluation: This is a life-harvesting sword, killing enemies and bringing you a steady stream of vitality."
Luo Yuan showed a hint of joy on his face, he really made the right bet this time, the attack power of the war saber did not increase much, only five points were added, judging from the law of the previous upgrade of the horse slashing knife, it was probably light green, and it did not match its own green level at all.
However, Luo Yuan had already been mentally prepared, and his attack power could increase so much, which had exceeded his psychological expectations.
Of course, what makes him most happy is not this, the freezing effect of the chicken ribs disappears, and is replaced by life sucking, if there is really a literal effect, this is simply an ability against the sky, in this way, it seems that he doesn't have to worry about being injured in the future, as long as there are enemies, he can get a steady stream of recovery.
It's a pity that there is no mutant beast out there now, otherwise you can test whether its ability is really as good as the information shown in the identification technique.
Luo Yuan played a lot before he was reluctant to insert the knife into the scabbard.
