Chapter 6: Wolf Attack
Seeing that there were only two wolves in front of him, Qin Yue's frightened heart calmed down a lot, and the situation was not too bad.
Liang Jian knew that once Qin Yue made a decision, it would be difficult to shake it, so he didn't say anything more. took a wooden stick handed over by her, held the Mongolian knife tightly in one hand, and protected Qin Yue behind him to defend himself.
The rain was still dripping, blocking the vision of the two, and they could only vaguely see the two wolves slowly moving towards this side.
The two knew it was going to be a fierce battle, and the beasts were the overlords of the jungle, their hard claws and sharp fangs that were enough to kill them. The wolf is the most greedy and ferocious, and once it is entangled by it, it will not stop until death.
Soon, the wolf pounced on them, its sharp fangs aimed at Liang Jian's throat.
Liang Jian pushed Qin Yue behind the boulder in front of the cave, and rolled to the side, dodging the wolf's attack.
Qin Yue watched in horror from the sidelines, although he knew that the jungle was dangerous, but he had never faced the threat of fierce beasts, even the python he encountered last time had a thrilling way around. But this time, there was an indescribable fear in my heart.
Liang Jian pushed her behind the boulder to cover her figure, but completely exposed herself to the wolf's field of vision, the two wolves couldn't hit her, and soon found an opportunity to pounce on him again.
Liang Jian only felt a strong fishy smell rushing to his face, and the two vicious wolves rushed towards him like a whirlwind.
He felt a chill in his heart, and hurriedly picked up the Mongolian knife and slashed the wolf in front of him in the abdomen, instantly staining its hair red with blood, and it fell to the ground after a few shakes.
At this time, the vicious wolf behind him had pounced on him, and its claws firmly grasped his back, scratching out deep blood marks.
Qin Yue saw that Liang Jian had been pounced on the ground by the evil wolf, while the wound of the other wolf was not fatal, and he was struggling to get up, showing his fangs and preparing to give him a fatal blow. The situation was very dangerous, she controlled her trembling hands, clenched the pointed stick, and stepped out from behind the boulder.
She raised her sharp wooden stick high, gritted her teeth, and thrust it fiercely into the wolf who was holding her forelimbs and preparing to get up, and in an instant the wooden stick penetrated the wolf's body, splashing bright red blood.
At the same time, Liang Jian also dodged, rolled sideways to one side, got rid of the shackles of the other wolf, and the blood stains on his back grinded on the coarse gravel, and he breathed a sigh of pain fiercely.
Both attacks fell, and the wolf had a deep fear and hatred in its eyes, and it raised its neck and howled loudly into the sky, throughout the mountainside and the jungle at the foot of the mountain.
The two looked at each other, knowing that the wolf had a strong sense of revenge, and if he was not annihilated in one fell swoop, he would definitely attract the entire wolf pack one day, and the two of them would become the belly of the evil wolf.
Liang Jian quickly propped up his body, suppressed the pain and got up from the ground, raised a sharp wooden stick in his hand, and took the initiative to pounce on the evil wolf, and soon, one person and one wolf were entangled together.
Qin Yue looked anxious, and hurriedly ran to the side, staring at the evil wolf, ready to find the right opportunity to give the evil wolf a break.
Hearing Liang Jian's muffled snort, the wolf's claws had already pierced deep into his chest, and the sharp fangs were close to his neck, and he was in danger.
Qin Yue didn't care to find an opportunity, and raised a large solid stone to smash at the head of the evil wolf who pounced on Liang Jian, and at the same time, Liang Jian pulled out his hand and slashed at the wolf's neck.
I heard a thud, and the stones rolled down from the side, and the wolf's body softened, and with a thud it fell down from one side and fell on the hillside.
I don't know when the rain has stopped, and in the silent air, only the sound of the two of them breathing and panting can be heard.
The embarrassed two looked at each other and smiled, Qin Yue had a feeling of the rest of his life.
She saw Liang Jian scarred all over her body, her heart was hurting and she gasped, her nose was sore, and hot tears rolled down.
She wiped away her tears indiscriminately, reached out and stroked his wound tremblingly, and looked up at him, "You almost died." ”
Liang Jianqiang held back the pain and said disapprerovitically, "It's okay, we still won the beast, didn't we? There are two more wolves in the food tomorrow." His eyes were full of approval, and his eyes were full of smiles, "You are very brave." “
Qin Yue burst out laughing, and seeing that his brows were furrowed and he looked in severe pain, he didn't say anything about delay, and raised one of his arms to help him walk into the cave.
Let him lie down on a rattan mat, take off his tattered shirt, apply herbs to each of his wounds, and tear his shirt into strips of cloth to bandage his wounds.
Luckily, they collected the dried herbs before dark, otherwise it would have been so dark and it would have rained so much, and she wouldn't know where to find them.
Unconsciously, Liang Jian couldn't hold back and fell asleep.
Qin Yue endured the pain in his ankle and moved the corpses of the two wolves to the cave. Luckily, the rain had washed away the smell of blood, otherwise it would have attracted more beasts in the jungle.
Seeing that the sky was gradually turning from pitch black to dark blue, Qin Yue knew that the sky was about to light up, and the jungle during the day was far from the danger of late night, so he raised a fire with confidence.
In a few moments, the sky was white, and the sun peeked out above the towering jungle in the distance, and a large patch of golden light sprinkled down.
The sky after the rain was exceptionally blue, Qin Yue stood at the entrance of the cave and inhaled a breath of air containing the fresh smell of grass and trees, exhaled the turbidity that had been suppressed all night, and her mood was much more relaxed, she turned around and returned to the cave.
Liang Jian had been in a coma for several hours, and Qin Yue changed herbs for him from time to time.
I don't know how long the time has passed, Liang Jian's breathing gradually became heavier, Qin Yue hurriedly probed his forehead, and sure enough, he had a high fever.
Now if he is scratched by a dog or cat, he has to be vaccinated against tetanus, not to mention, he is covered with blood marks from the scratch, and the situation is naturally not good. Qin Yue was worried that his high fever would cause inflammation of the wound, so he hurriedly applied anti-inflammatory herbs to him.
Among the piles of herbs she dug up yesterday, there were a few that could be boiled into juice and taken internally, and the medicinal effect was stronger, but there were no cooking utensils at the moment, and she couldn't help but be very anxious.
But she couldn't think too much, she had to bring his temperature down as soon as possible, otherwise it would be troublesome if the wound became inflamed.
She ran to the side of the stream again and again, soaked the cloth and put it on Liang Jian's forehead, Qin Yue had been busy by Liang Jian's side for several hours, and finally the temperature on his forehead gradually dropped.
This was just an expedient measure, and Qin Yue decided to go out and find utensils that could hold water.
She remembered that there was a huge tree nearby, and there were several large coconuts hanging from the vines, and if they were hard enough, they could be hollowed out and used to make soup.
It's just that the tree is extremely tall, the fruit on the vine is nearly ten meters above the ground, and her ankle injury has not healed, and it is too difficult to climb up, but she doesn't want to give up.
Liang Jian must now boil the medicine and take the medicine as soon as possible, otherwise the situation will be very serious.
The jungle after the rainstorm is muddy, especially at the foot of the low-lying hills, which is full of knee-deep sewage. Qin Yue was holding a bent thick branch, and her ankle still hurt as soon as she walked, but after a day, it was much better. She limped into the puddle, on which there were floating insects, and many rotten trees and leaves were floating on the water.
There were marks of insect bites everywhere on his arms and calves, and suddenly he felt a stinging pain, and a soft object was burrowing into the flesh on his calves. Qin Yue hurriedly walked to the root of the giant tree on the side, the root of the tree was thick and coiled over the dragon, the terrain was slightly higher than the puddle, and there was no stagnant water.
She sat down at the root of the tree, bent down to look at her calf, and found a leech the thickness of a small thumb squeezing her fat body, burrowing into the white flesh of her leg. She couldn't help but feel numb in her scalp, and she held back her nausea and fear, quickly pulled out the leech in her hand, and threw it far away on the flat ground full of fallen leaves and rotting wood.
In an instant, the blood snaked down his calf, Qin Yue cursed a few words in his heart, hurriedly wiped the blood stains with his clothes, got up with a frown, and patted the rotten wood chips on his body.
On the back road, she carefully skirted the puddle and walked for about half an hour, until she finally reached the bottom of the giant tree.
This giant tree is about 1,000 years old, and the body of the tree is as thick as a dozen people, and the towering trunk is as thick as a cloud, and the branches and leaves are so green that they seem to drip sap, occupying most of the space in the vicinity.
Only a few vines snaked their way up near the giant tree, and weeds treading under their feet survived, so there was plenty of space around it, except for the thick and tangled roots.
The terrain here is higher, so there is no stagnant water, and there are no leeches, which makes Qin Yue happy, she has a physiological aversion to all soft-bodied creatures.
Qin Yue put down the basket he was carrying on his shoulder, climbed onto the thick tree roots, and reached out to pull the vines that were winding upward. The vines wrapped around the tree were also extremely thick, the vines were as thick as her elbows, and the vines on top were also the thickness of her wrists, wrapped around the branches nearly ten meters above the ground.
Qin Yue stepped on the vines and climbed up with the help of the vines, Qin Yue gritted his teeth and endured the pain in the soles of his feet, and climbed up desperately.
She didn't dare to look down, only looked up at the intertwined branches above, and tightened the winding vines in her hands. I don't know how long it took, she climbed close to the branch, she put one end on the branch, the other end grasped the vine above, and with a little force, she flashed onto the branch.
This branch is the fork of a giant tree, although it is not as thick as the trunk, it is as thick as a few people hugging each other, Qin Yue stands on it steadily, and he is not worried about falling.
She clung to the vine and walked on the long branches, and when she looked up, she saw the fruit she was looking for hanging from the vines that were entwined with the branches. The fruit is oval in color, the size of a watermelon, the skin is covered with lines, and it has a rough frosted feeling to the touch, and the shell is very firm. Looking at its appearance, Qin Yue named it cucumber.
She reached for it, and found that the vine was very strong and could not be plucked. She took out the scissors, cut the vine a few times, plucked one, and put a pad in her hand, and found that it was not heavy, much lighter than a watermelon of the same volume.
Wanting to test the hardness, she didn't put it aside, but fell directly from the tree, only listening to the thud, not the sound of the explosion.
She picked a few cucumbers one after another and prepared to climb down the tree along the vines, but there were too many baskets to fit.
