It's raining.

It's really raining.

It was about the same time as Shao Xuan predicted, and it was only a few seconds apart.

Coincidental?

Or is it really the same as the knot predicted?

After washing the bird droppings off his hands with rainwater, Shao Xuan walked back to the cave, took out the straw rope in the animal skin bag and cut another section, looked at the rain curtain outside the cave, and thought, do you want to try again?

The rain has already fallen, so, what is the next one?

Let's see when the rain will stop.

Shao Xuan thought back to the state when he knotted the rope just now, what he thought when he knotted the rope, then picked up the rope, closed his eyes, put aside other distractions, and thought about the time when the rain stopped.

Waiting for the hands in his mind to appear again, Shao Xuan observed it and found that the knotting movements of the hands were not only different from the chaotic knotting in the past, but also different from the one just now.

There's a play!

Shao Xuan carefully observed the movements of those hands, and in his own hands, the straw rope was also knotted in the same way.

When Shao Xuan broke away from his consciousness, the feeling of prostration hit again, his vision was dark for a moment, and his brain hurt for a while.

It seems that this way of knotting ropes and divination is indeed very expensive.

Looking at the new conclusion typed out in his hand, Shao Xuan interpreted it and found that this time, it was not as detailed as just now, and the meaning was a little vague, but it was roughly guessed.

Before noon, the rain will stop.

Even if there is no sun, Shao Xuan can guess the approximate point in time. Accustomed to the days when there are no clocks, you can guess it by looking at the sky, even if it is full of dark clouds. This is an essential skill for hunting in the mountains and forests.

It's just noon, and it's not long. Wait and see.

Shao Xuan put the knot beside him, ate another piece of cold and hard barbecue, and rested against the cave wall.

When Shao Xuan felt that the time was about the same, the sound of rain outside the cave was quieter, but it did not stop.

Walk to the entrance of the cave. Shao Xuan looked outside, the thick clouds in the sky were dispersing, and between the gaps in the clouds, there was still sunlight shining down on this vibrant mountain forest.

The rain faded until it stopped completely.

The sky is full of dark clouds, and the sun is just right.

Once a coincidence, twice a coincidence?

Shao Xuan is more convinced. The lineage recorded on the Banzai leaf is the knotted rope divination.

Since the knotted rope record was gradually replaced, Shao Xuan rarely saw such a way again, even when he was traveling far away, he had never seen it, and he didn't expect to get such a thing. I just don't know which witch of which tribe left this. There is no trace of the tribe's totem at all.

After the rain, the sky was clear, and Chirp flew out and caught a small beast and came back. Eat with Shao Xuan. After eating, Chirp rested beside him, while Shao Xuan stayed in the cave, his disappeared body had almost recovered, looking at the remaining straw ropes in the animal skin bag, and thought about it. Chop a section again with a stone knife.

Not in a hurry to leave, Shao Xuan planned to try to knot the rope for the third time. Finally, he succeeded in knotting the rope, and he planned to study more.

He wanted to predict what might happen next, but the third time didn't go so well. Punched out is still a mess of knots, tied to the fingers.

Again!

Fail.

Come again!

Failed again.

......

Half of the straw rope in the animal skin bag had been used, Shao Xuan put down the mess in his hand and rested against the wall.

How could it fail?

Is it too difficult?

Chirp was right next to him, watching Shao Xuan make one grass ball after another, and then leaned against the cave wall and hit the ground with his head. It couldn't quite understand Shao Xuan's thoughts, but felt that humans were indeed complex animals.

Waiting for the body to recover again, Shao Xuan thought, maybe the things he thought about just now were too difficult to do, so let's do something simple. If you can't do it easily, I won't try it today.

Picking up a piece of straw rope again, Shao Xuan thought about where to go next.

When the knotting was completed, looking at the finally successful knot, Shao Xuan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, was it really too difficult just now? Don't be ambitious, let's take it slowly.

The next place to go, of course, is the place where he found the stone, which is really not very difficult.

However, when Shao Xuan interpreted the meaning of the knot, compared with the direction given by the chirp, he found that the direction of the two was not the same.

The success of the knot rope should not be made indiscriminately, so is the direction in which the knot came out more meaningful to Shao Xuan?

In order to figure it out, Shao Xuan adjusted slightly and tried to bring a piece of straw rope again. The result is the same as before.

Shao Xuan looked at the direction indicated by the knotted rope and thought about what was more important than stone over there.

After thinking about it for a while, Shao Xuan made a decision.

"Chirp, let's not go look for the stone first, go over there. Shao Xuan pointed in a different direction.

The direction Shao Xuan pointed to, he had never been there, but it didn't matter, he was quite excited to go to a strange forest area.

Because of the knotted rope, it consumed a lot of body and time, Shao Xuan decided to set off again tomorrow, and at the same time, he also took the time to go out of the hole and find some stone boxes to use as vines for the rope, in case the grass rope was not enough at that time. He used so much straw rope to knot the rope, and he had to prepare some more in case he needed it.

Following.

Shao Xuan, who had recovered his spirits, left the cave together and went in the direction indicated by the knot.

There is a river running through the forest, the water is slightly green, and some animal activity can occasionally be seen around.

Shao Xuan did not walk by the river, it was dangerous, and the distance between him and the river was at least twenty to thirty meters.

On the gravel beach by the river, there were some shiny things, and Shao Xuan wanted to pick one up and take a look.

However, as he bent down to pick it up, there was a sudden scream that pierced the air.

Shao Xuan had been guarding his surroundings, and when he heard the movement, he turned his body around and dodged to the side.

Syllable!

Originally, where Shao Xuan was standing, a water arrow passed through that place and hit a large stone hard.

Water arrows?

Shao Xuan's eyelids jumped, where did the water arrow come from?

Without waiting for Shao Xuan to think about it, another water arrow shot out of the river, although it was water, it was strong and extremely fast.

The second water arrow was dodged by Shao Xuan and hit a tree nearly fifty meters away from the river bank, leaving a hole directly in the trunk.

Immediately after, the third and fourth water arrows also chased after Shao Xuan.

However, because of these successive arrows, Shao Xuan also saw that the source of the water arrows was indeed from the river, and there was a bulge floating on the surface of the river, which was part of some kind of creature in the water.

Shao Xuan didn't want to waste time here, and after dodging the water arrows, he left the riverbank. The deeper you go into the mountains and forests, even if it is a fish in the river, you can't underestimate it. Big fish have the threat of big fish, small shrimp have the ability of small shrimp, and if you are not careful, you will stay here forever.

It's just that Shao Xuan doesn't understand what is special in the depths of the dangerous mountains and forests. (To be continued......)
