Chapter 59: Rising Tide

In any case, Liu Qing had something to eat, and while it was still dark, he crawled back into the small hole and took out the dagger, and directly disemboweled the pig, and the hot blood flowed everywhere, exuding a strong smell of blood. Liu Qing held the pig's heart, cut off several large blood vessels connected with a dagger, took it out directly and bit it, drank the pig's blood, and ate most of the pig's heart, so he felt that the fullness in his stomach had decreased a lot.

The only thing that made him feel a little uncomfortable was the taste of raw meat, of course, for him who had eaten insects, this taste was much better than that of insects. After a full meal, Liu Qing then began to dig a hole again. Originally, he wanted Xiao Wu to throw down the sapper shovel as well, but after thinking about it, first of all, the sapper shovel was too big for him to work in such a small space, and he was afraid that Xiao Wu would not understand.

He rested back and forth three more times, and once again went into the small hole, and as he struggled to plunge the dagger into the soil above his head, he felt like something had been punctured. An inexplicable excitement filled his whole body, the dagger smashed indiscriminately, the ground was pushed open by him, and Liu Qing finally broke out of the ground!

When he was about to dig out, Xiao Wu had already sensed that something was wrong with the ground here, and he had been guarding the side, and when he saw that Liu Qing was coming out of the hole, he was also excited, and quickly used his claws to pick up the soil around Liu Qing, and then bit the clothes on Liu Qing's shoulder with his mouth and pulled it out, helping him get out early.

Liu Qing, who came out of the cave, deeply felt the happiness of the rest of his life after the catastrophe, and hugged Xiao Wu and cried with joy. At this time, the sun had completely set, the moon was in the sky, but the giant tree forest was pitch black, even if you could see the moon through the gap in the canopy, you could not feel the brightness of the moonlight at all. Liu Qing didn't know whether to rush back to the cave now, because he was afraid that he would encounter danger on the road.

He hugged Xiao Wu and felt that its front legs were a little wet, and based on his experience, he felt that this must be a wound. "Xiao Wu, are you injured, let's not go back, let's rest here tonight!"

Liu Qing has already made plans to rest here for the night, and then go back to the cave at dawn tomorrow.

However, he was about to find a resting place here, and when he groped for a long stick, and touched another bush, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine, and he suddenly remembered something. Xiao Wu was following behind him, turned around and hugged Xiao Wu, and said eagerly: "Quick, Xiao Wu, hurry, let's go back quickly!"

The giant tree jungle was so dark, Liu Qing was like a blind man at all, and if the two of them wanted to go back, they could only use Xiao Wu's keen sense of smell to find their way.

Xiao Wu didn't know what Liu Qing was going to do, but he could understand the word "go back", so he led the way in front. Liu Qing's eyes were dark, and at most he could only see the general outlines of some plants, and he couldn't see anything clearly. However, it seems that Xiao Wu is very familiar with this place, and maybe animals have a special means of remembering the road they have walked, just like an old horse knows the way.

When he walked to the edge of the stream, Liu Qing could see the reflection of the stream, but he couldn't find the tree root bridge he walked on that day, and he realized that the road Xiao Wu walked was not the same road he walked that day. But he doesn't know where he is now, so he can only rely on Xiao Wu to decide.

On the edge of the stream, Xiao Wu was lying on his stomach slightly, and Liu Qing was holding on to its shoulder, not knowing what it was going to do, but it seemed that Xiao Wu should have something to do. After waiting for a while, he didn't see any animals in Liu Qing, Xiao Wu snorted and shook his shoulders.

However, Liu Qing still didn't understand what it meant, so Xiao Wu simply took a few steps back, stood behind Liu Qing, and got his head between his legs, and forced Liu Qing to pick him up. Liu Qing was very surprised, but he still didn't understand what Xiao Wu was going to do.

I saw Xiao Wu retreat a few steps, and then run forward quickly, Liu Qing almost couldn't sit steadily, so frightened that he hurriedly leaned over slightly, and wrapped his hands around Xiao Wu's neck. Originally, Xiao Wu's body was not too tall, and if Liu Qing didn't curl his legs, both feet would have to be dragged on the ground. When approaching the edge of the stream, Xiao Wu's sudden leap and his body rose into the air, Liu Qing only felt the wind whirring in his ears, and then soon heard a "plop" sound.

Xiao Wu carried Liu Qing on his back, and one man and one tiger both fell into the stream. Xiao Wu is already underage, and today he is too tired and physically exhausted, and he is still carrying a person who weighs more than him, so it is natural to fall into the water.

Liu Qing actually wanted to laugh, but he also understood, Xiao Wu had crossed the river before, and he was afraid that he would jump over, while marveling at Xiao Wu's amazing jumping power, and on the other hand, he was too confident that Xiao Wu was too confident at this time, and the two of them both fell into the pit.

Fortunately, this creek is not too deep, and such a huge movement has already scared the fish in the creek to the side, otherwise if the big fish more than a meter long smell blood and come to besiege it, it will really be dangerous, after all, this is in the water.

Suddenly falling into the water, Xiao Wu was also a little confused, but fortunately, it reacted quickly, and after falling into the water, it quickly stood up straight and continued to carry Liu Qing across the river. When he arrived on the shore, Liu Qing didn't dare to delay, turned over and jumped off Xiao Wu, this was the location where he used to fish, and the path was already extremely familiar.

"Quick, Little Five, run out quickly. Liu Qing greeted Xiao Wu and ran forward. I have to say that that meal of swallowing raw elephant trunk pork did restore his physical strength to a great extent, otherwise with the situation that he was hungry for two days, not to mention weak now, at least he couldn't run so fast. A man and a tiger quickly rushed out of the giant tree forest, but the front was still full of unknown dangers, and no one knew if there would be other fierce beasts foraging outside their cave.

But at least Liu Qing's mood is a little calmer now. The rest of the road is relatively easy, it is said to be easy, but in fact it is just a little slower, and you have to stop from time to time along the way to listen carefully to whether there is any other movement around you. The moonlight is bright and bright, and the mountains and forests are full of mottled shadows of various trees, and they are constantly swaying with the slight mountain breeze, and if there is no danger, it should be very pleasant to walk.

All the way back to the cave, there was no danger, only a few small animals. When he arrived at the cave, Liu Qing's heart was full of emotion, don't look at this cave, but at this time, it made him feel a kind of warmth at home.

However, he didn't have time to enjoy it for the time being, and as soon as he returned to the cave, he immediately sealed the fence gate from the inside, and then quickly found the flashlight. Speaking of his flashlight, the overall length and thickness are about the same size as women's lipstick, and it should be slightly larger. The whole is a four-sided cylinder, the sky is closed at the tail, there is a rubber cover at the switch, the whole flashlight is a waterproof design, there are five small bulbs in the lamp head, and a small bulb is sandwiched in the middle. The small flashlight has a built-in lithium battery, and two of the four edges on the outside are solar panels, as long as you put it in the sun at any time, it will not run out of power.

In addition to this, the switch of the small flashlight is also very interesting, press it is a weak light, suitable for ordinary use, and then press it is a strong light, in an open place, several kilometers away can be this bright light; press three times is blue light, which can be used to distinguish between real and fake banknotes; press four times is a laser, which is emitted from the small bulb surrounded by five small bulbs; long press for four seconds is off.

Liu Qing ran to Xiao Wu's side with a flashlight, shone it back and forth, and even kept turning over its fur, looking for something. After a while, he really found something, this gadget was lying on the wound of Xiao Wu's front leg, and his little body kept squirming, sucking something.

Liu Qing's face darkened, what he was most worried about was this thing, the reason why he changed his mind and ventured back in the giant tree forest was because he was afraid of this thing, and sure enough, there was still it. At that time, when he was beating the grass with a long wooden stick, he suddenly thought of the corpse-eating insects in the giant tree forest, aren't they just hiding in the bushes and grass? Xiao Wu has injuries on his body, and he is also stained with a lot of weevil-nosed pig bloodstains, in case he is targeted by these little insects when he spends the night in the forest, I am afraid that the two of them will be gone after tonight.

Liu Qing didn't know if this little thing was poisonous or not, and the top priority was to get it off Xiao Wu's body as soon as possible, but if he dragged it with his hand and poked it with a stick, this little thing seemed to grow on Xiao Wu's legs, and he couldn't get it down at all. Liu Qing thought about it again and again, and suddenly remembered that if he was bitten by a leech before, he would burn the butt of the leech with a cigarette butt, and as soon as it was stimulated by heat, it would curl up and fall down.

Took a lighter, lit it and slowly approached the corpse eater, the little thing's butt was burned by the fire, and sure enough, the body curled up, shrunk into a small ball of meat, and fell to the ground from Xiao Wu's leg with a click. Xiao Wu looked at it a little stunned, it really didn't know that it was bitten, but it just felt that the wound had been a little itchy.

Got rid of the little insects with stones, Liu Qing took off his clothes again, checked himself, and found nothing, so he finally felt at ease, boiled water, roasted a few ginger beans, and after eating, he fell asleep with Xiao Wu in his arms.

The next day, Liu Qing felt that he was tired all over, and he was a little embarrassed to say that he had diarrhea all the time last night, seven or eight times in one night, and it hurt to have diarrhea until his anus hurt, even so, he pulled again when he got up in the morning.

Liu Qing felt that he was about to collapse, and thought about it carefully, it should be that when he was in the cave in the ground, the things he ate were making trouble, and he should have been poisoned by food. I ate a few worms in the hole, and chewed some grass roots or something, I didn't feel anything at the time, but I didn't know that it broke out as soon as I came back, and now the place on the left side of the cave is full of Liu Qing's excrement, and the smell is unbearable.

The first thing he did when he woke up in the morning was to dispose of the pile quickly, but he had left the sapper shovel in the forest, so he had to dig some scraps of soil outside with a dagger, wrap it in large leaves, and mix it with the ashes of the burning plants, and use the soil to cover the excrement, and after a while he wrapped it in large leaves and threw it outside into the jungle.

Liu Qing cleaned up the cave, and quickly boiled some water to drink, this is a must, as long as a person has diarrhea, it is very likely to cause excessive water loss in the body, resulting in lack of water, and even dehydration, once dehydrated, the problem is serious, so he must replenish water at any time now. As for the problem of diarrhea, he believes that it will not be long before he will get better, and during this period, he can eat a little less, and when his stomach is empty, it is estimated that he will be almost fine.

In fact, Liu Qing still has an idea, he wants to find out what caused him to have diarrhea, if he finds out, then once he encounters a problem such as constipation, it will be easy to solve. But if you think about it, it's really dangerous to live in the giant tree forest for a long time, not to mention those weird corpse eaters and birds that have never seen their real faces, and the giant python I saw that day......

"Hehe!" Liu Qing smiled self-deprecatingly, "Perhaps, the ancients relied on this method to accumulate continuously, and finally formed the doctrine of Chinese medicine and herbal medicine." As soon as he thought of this, his stomach rumbled again, and in broad daylight, Liu Qing didn't want to solve it in the hole, so he ran outside to the forest with his stomach covered.
