Chapter 62

As a martial arts cultivator, you usually need a lot of meat to maintain your strength and exercise, but now you can't just have a little dry food.

After eating some dry food, Lin Xuanzhong ate the picked fruit again, and did not stop until he felt full. Now that the ointment has begun to take effect, the wound is obviously much more comfortable, taking this opportunity, Lin Xuanzhong quickly returned to the forest to find a remote cross-legged place to sit down and use the true qi in his body.

Just like yesterday's process, after half an hour, the True Qi was already flowing smoothly throughout the body. After continuing to run for a few weeks, the condition in his body has improved greatly, thinking that he can take advantage of the current physical strength to get some meat to eat, Lin Xuanzhong stopped running his true qi and got up directly, carrying a long sword and looking around in the forest.

Walking in the forest for a while, Lin Xuanzhong realized that the forest was actually not big, except for more birds, animals were really rare.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for several rabbits to appear in sight, allowing Lin Xuanzhong to find a glimmer of hope. From a distance, several rabbits were grazing together, and they hadn't realized their existence yet, so Lin Xuanzhong quietly moved over, and then shot at one of the rabbits with his long sword.

Even if Lin Xuanzhong's physical condition is very poor now, as long as the long sword touches that rabbit, Lin Xuanzhong will definitely not miss.

The next scene just proved that Lin Xuanzhong was very lucky, and he seemed to be living a comfortable life normally, until the long sword was about to approach a few rabbits, and several rabbits realized that something unknown was flying towards them. In a panic, several rabbits immediately fled in all directions, but one of the rabbits did not run away and was hit by a long sword and stuck on the ground. So, Lin Xuanzhong didn't miss it.

The long sword pierced the rabbit's body too deeply, and the rabbit died on the spot, and then Lin Xuanzhong had to think about how to eat it. You can't make a fire without fire, and there is no fire source around, so you can't eat it raw.

Thinking about the stories I had read in the book before, I had read a lot of stories about martial cultivators surviving in the wild, and I remembered that some martial cultivators with fierce personalities would eat the flesh of beasts raw and drink the blood of beasts. However, the book also said that in general, martial arts cultivators roasted their prey before eating, because raw food is difficult to swallow.

In addition, the book also mentioned that there is a stone called flint in time, which can produce flames by touching it, but not only has he never seen what flint looks like, but he has never used flint, so Lin Xuanzhong knows that he has no possibility of making fire. Since this is the case, Lin Xuanzhong can only encourage first.

Not long after, back to the river, Lin Xuanzhong separated the skin of the hare with a long sword, and then took a few pieces of meat and washed them in water. Although the rabbit meat still smelled a little strange after washing it for a long time, Lin Xuanzhong, who had no choice, still endured the discomfort and tried to chew it.

I don't know how to describe the feeling of chewing rabbit meat with his teeth, Lin Xuanzhong didn't dare to experience it carefully, and just by putting the meat in his mouth, Lin Xuanzhong was already retching, so at this time, he closed his eyes even more tightly and didn't think about any feeling in his mouth.

After a long time, it was not until half an hour later that Lin Xuanzhong finished eating the piece of rabbit meat that he had just cut, because the feeling of nausea was very strong, Lin Xuanzhong felt that he didn't need to eat anything again for the next day.

Putting the rest of the rabbit meat aside, Lin Xuanzhong tried not to think about chewing the rabbit meat just now, and instead used his true qi to heal his injuries with peace of mind.

When he opened his eyes again, a wave of hunger surged over, and even made Lin Xuanzhong forget the nausea when he ate raw rabbit meat just now, so Lin Xuanzhong cut off another piece of rabbit meat to eat.

After eating, Lin Xuanzhong hurriedly went to the river to drink water in his hand, but inadvertently Lin Xuanzhong found that the scattered hair had turned gray, no longer as white as before, and after looking carefully, Lin Xuanzhong was surprised to find that it seemed that his hair was turning black. So, not even caring about drinking water, Lin Xuanzhong instead focused on looking at his hair.

It wasn't until a quarter of an hour later, seeing that his hair had not changed, Lin Xuanzhong returned to his original position and used his true qi to heal his injuries. The healing process was extremely boring, so time passed very slowly, but in order to make the injury better as soon as possible, Lin Xuanzhong was still patiently healing himself.

In the afternoon, the sound of birds and beasts decreased, and it was unusually hot outside, and Lin Xuanzhong returned to the forest not far from the riverbank. The air in the forest was still cool, and after a long period of cross-knee healing, Lin Xuanzhong could now feel that his injuries were recovering. So, Lin Xuanzhong planned to stay in the forest for a while longer, and then prepare some food before continuing on the road to Wenfeng City.

If the injury improves after a few days, then it will only take a few days to reach Wenfeng City, of course, if there is a tall horse, it will take much shorter, but now there is nothing, Lin Xuanzhong can only rely on his legs, so he can only wait for the injury to heal before setting off.

By the time Lin Xuanzhong stopped healing again, it was already evening, and the rabbit meat during the day would be sick to his stomach as long as he thought about it, so Lin Xuanzhong got up and looked around for other prey, but in the end he didn't find anything, and when he returned to the original place after dark, he could only eat the remaining dry food. Before resting at night, Lin Xuanzhong went to the river to clean the wound again, and then applied the ointment before returning to the original place to rest. It is worth mentioning that Lin Xuanzhong found that his hair had become darker by the river.

Regardless of whether the hair color is changing or not, there will be results in the end, so Lin Xuanzhong didn't pay too much attention to hair problems.

He hadn't encountered a beast all day during the day, and although it was possible to encounter it at night, Lin Xuanzhong wasn't too worried. After continuing to run the True Qi for a while, Lin Xuanzhong, who was a little tired, fell asleep directly against the tree.

The night was fine, and the next morning I woke up like that, and there was the sound of birds chirping everywhere in the woods. After opening his eyes, Lin Xuanzhong clearly felt that the situation this morning was much better than yesterday morning, and he easily stood up after just moving his body slightly.

When he lifted his clothes, he saw that several wounds had already healed, although there was no ointment available, but Lin Xuanzhong felt that as long as there was enough food and enough time to rest, the trauma could still heal on its own. So, after standing up and briefly checking his physical condition, Lin Xuanzhong took the long sword to find the prey.

I don't know what's going on, the morning is obviously the time period when many animals eat, but I didn't find anything when I looked for it, and as a result, I was hungry and unbearable, Lin Xuanzhong could only find the leftover rabbit meat from yesterday to eat, and finally I couldn't eat a little dry food, and then find some fruits in the forest to quench my thirst. Kankan filled his stomach and found a place, Lin Xuanzhong healed his injuries by running his true qi.

However, the situation was obviously different today, and it had not been an hour before the feeling of hunger suddenly appeared and became more and more intense due to the non-stop operation of True Qi. It seems that the strength of that little food supplement is completely useless, and Lin Xuanzhong must find some more food to supplement his strength.

After understanding the importance of food for healing, Lin Xuanzhong carried a long sword, and searched for animals in the forest, but found the river all the way. The river water is crystal clear, and fish can be seen everywhere in it, Lin Xuanzhong, who is big and small, is salivating, thinking that fish meat may be better than rabbit meat, Lin Xuanzhong feels that he can get some fish to eat. Now I have all the strength to go into the water to catch fish.

Walking cautiously into the river, Lin Xuanzhong and the others held the long sword in both hands against the water below, and when a fish swam underneath, they directly inserted the long sword with both hands.

The long sword entered the water without any resistance, but it didn't feel like it was inserted into something until it stopped, and after pulling out the long sword with some trepidation, Lin Xuanzhong was disappointed to find that he didn't insert the swimming fish just now, and when he wanted to insert the fish with the sword, not only the fish swam away because he was frightened, but even the surrounding fish were scared away a lot.

Fortunately, the swimming fish in the river were very bold, and it didn't take long for a few more fish to swim around, but the next time they attacked, Lin Xuanzhong ended up failing again. After that, Lin Xuanzhong tried several more times, almost every time he failed, and the long sword hit the water, and the splash on his body had already caused wound discomfort. Sensing the abnormality in his body, Lin Xuanzhong suddenly remembered that there was no ointment available, and the wound could not be wet, so he had no choice but to leave the river.

It took half a day, but it could only end up with nothing. Back on the shore, Lin Xuanzhong looked helpless, I don't know why he felt that he could insert it every time, but he couldn't insert it every time. Not only is there no fish to eat now, but there are also problems with the wounds, Lin Xuanzhong didn't have time to recall the scene of catching fish just now, so he quickly took off the wet clothes on his body, put them on the branches to dry, and then carefully checked the condition of several wounds.

Unconsciously, another half an hour passed, and the feeling of hunger became more and more intense, but there was not much dry food left, no way, after eating the remaining dry food, Lin Xuanzhong looked at the remaining rabbit meat and sighed. Thinking about the injury today, he has just looked good, and he has no food to replenish his strength, so what can he do next if he doesn't eat rabbit meat now. In desperation, Lin Xuanzhong could only eat the rabbit meat he didn't want to eat the most.

A day later, he even finished eating rabbit meat, because of food problems, Lin Xuanzhong could only look around in the forest to find something to eat, and walked along the east side, and unconsciously left the original small forest.

In the next few days, Lin Xuanzhong was basically hungry and full, and he didn't have any extra strength to heal his injuries. As a result, although the external injuries healed a lot, the internal condition of the body was extremely bad, and many meridians had deteriorated because they were not nourished by true qi, and Lin Xuanzhong obviously felt that he was unable to change the situation of some of these meridians, and now Lin Xuanzhong's strength was only equivalent to an injured second-order martial cultivator. The only thing worth mentioning is that Lin Xuanzhong has walked dozens of miles in the past few days, and he is closer to Wenfeng City.

Standing on a wasteland at this moment, looking at some large beasts grazing, Lin Xuanzhong was thinking about whether to attack one of them as food.

Lin Xuanzhong had already accumulated some experience in hunting in the past few days, so he was quite sure about hunting some slow beasts.
