"It's amazing how quickly your wounds heal. Louisa slightly unwrapped the white veil on Hodge's abdomen and looked inside, and the flesh and skin tissue near the wound began to heal splicing, and the sticky area occasionally oozing yellow and turbid liquid, and it may not be long before the sutures can be removed.

It was the first time Luisa had seen such an astonishing rate of healing, and it was a penetrating wound. At first, when Hodge said that she was able to walk and could start to explore outside the dense forest, she only thought that this person was holding on and letting him recuperate for a few more days before discussing the matter of departure, after all, this year's cold wave and long night seemed to be extraordinarily long, and it had been nearly three weeks until today, but there was still no clear day, and there was no difference between walking earlier and walking later.

"Thanks to the good stitches, the ointment applied to the wound, and most importantly, the roast is really good, which makes people feel good and heals a lot faster. ”

"I know the effect of the ointment I have made, and the barbecue I have made does not have the radiance of the priest's healing. Luisa pouted disapprovingly, untied the white veil from Hodge's waist and abdomen, simply cleaned the pus from the wound, and then took out another piece of white cloth from her backpack and wrapped it again.

"Well, it's amazing how fast it heals, but I haven't found the reason yet, I just know that my body has been the same since I was a child. ”

Hodge discovered this problem a long time ago, and when he was doing experiments at Parna Castle, it was inevitable that his fingers would be cut by sharp objects due to negligence in the operation, and if the scratches were not deep, the other children would often have a thin layer of scabs at the wound the next day, and after a few days of hardening, the scabs would fall off to reveal new skin, and the whole process would take nearly a week, and if the scratches were a little deeper, it would take even more time.

But even if he made an extremely deep opening, after half a day, the wound had already condensed into a thick and hard scab, and when he woke up at dawn, the scab would fall off, and the wound would disappear, and if it were not for the existence of the scab, it would not be obvious that he had been injured yesterday.

This amazing ability to heal himself appeared quite early, long before he met Daphne and awakened to a wizard after assassinating McCarthy and escaping.

Waiting for Luisa's time to bandage, he saw a small section of the white cloth exposed in the other party's backpack, and from the outline of the white cloth roll in the backpack, he could vaguely see that there was still a lot of length left, and he suddenly remembered the scene of seeing Luisa wrapping his chest before he disappeared consciousness.

"This roll of white cloth, could it be that you used it to ......"

He suddenly felt a tightness in his abdomen, and the white cloth that was being wrapped around the third circle contracted violently in Louisa's hand, and the force of the sudden contraction almost didn't allow the wound that had just begun to heal to crack directly, but even then some blood seeped into the white cloth, and he screamed softly in pain.

"Hmm, were you just asking me something?"

Luisa continued her work, looking up at Hodge with a smile on her face, full of kindness and kindness.

"I guess you misheard, I didn't say anything just now. ”

Curiosity and being alive were two choices, and Hodge didn't hesitate to choose the latter.

......

Walking in the cold wave and snow, the most feared thing is to extinguish the torches.

Not only will the only source of heat disappear without torches, but more importantly, the visibility of the field of vision is extremely low due to the wind and snow, and because there is no starlight in the long night, you really can't see anything without the light of the torches.

Fortunately, Hodge still has a lot of white branding on his body, and after asking Luisa, he learned that she also brought a little, which is not surprising, if you want to walk in the cold wave, white branding is a necessary burning aid, not to mention that the price of this alchemy substance is not expensive, and the purchase method is also quite popular.

"How to get there?"

Luisa shook the torch in her hand, and in the dark environment, there was only a small area they could see, not to mention that there were tall and dense sylvestris trees all around, and there were no recognizable features between the large trees, and the arrangement was quite arbitrary, but because of this, it was very easy to get lost, and they didn't know if they had ever been under this tree or that tree.

"You're asking me?"

"Otherwise, I'm talking to the snow or the air. Luisa half-crossed her waist angrily, "You're a hunter, don't tell me you don't even know how to tell the way in the jungle." ”

Hodge then remembered his own persona, he had lived in the hunter village for eight years, and he had a very thorough understanding of the habits of hunters, and in theory it should be seamless to dress up as an ordinary hunter, but he began to struggle with the problem of distinguishing directions.

Hunters who are familiar with each other often spend their days at home in the cold wave roasting in the fireplace and drinking wine to celebrate the harvest of the year, and the ghosts go out into the snow and forest at this time.

The usual way to determine directions was mainly to rely on the sun, or to have a complete map and landmark references, neither of which they now had, and few sailors carried a compass with them.

But it doesn't work to tell Luisa that she doesn't know, as she says, she's a hunter.

After thinking about it for a long time, he finally came up with a good idea.

"Look at the direction in which the plants grow!"

He was amazed by the flash of inspiration: "You only have to look at the direction of the plants far from the canopy to know the direction of the sun." ”

Just as he was complacent, he heard Louisa laugh softly.

"What's wrong?" he looked at her quizzically.

Luisa gestured to a nearby patch of ground, "Pat the snow out of it and take a look." ”

Hodge crouched down to clear the thick snow that covered the surface, revealing a few handfuls of plants under the soil, and looking at their crooked appearance, he finally understood why Luisa was laughing, the thick snow had already crushed the plants, and he could not make out the direction of growth.

Luisa shook her head, led him to the sylvestris tree, blew the snow off the lower bark, pointed to the mosses covering the bark, and said, "Look at the moss, only the moss will tell you the truth, do you see that the moss on this side grows particularly luxuriantly? This is the south side." ”

"Do you know how to tell where you are?" Hodge asked.

"Of course I do, I should say that most people who have hunted in the jungle know this simple and easy to identify method. ”

Luisa looked at him with deep eyes, "So I'm curious, how could you, as a hunter, not know?"

She's testing me!

Hodge realized that it seemed that he was not the only one who had doubts, and Luisa also felt that there was a problem with his identity.

"Hah! Look at my memory, it's probably because the wound hasn't healed yet, and my head is dizzy and I can't remember. ”

"This is a terrible situation, do you want to find a place to rest a little longer, Mr. Harlow?"

Luisa deliberately bites the sound of the word "Harlow" very hard, and the meaning she wants to explain is self-evident.

"I don't think so. Hodge laughed, "It's better to get out of this damn forest first." ”
