Chapter 7: Thunderstorm (I)
Lei Xingfeng's family of three trekked hard in the wilderness in search of a thunderstorm.
At the beginning of the cold season, this kind of strange weather often breaks out, thundering and snowing, which is the so-called thunderstorm, this kind of weather Lei Xingfeng has experienced, after all, he has also experienced several cold seasons in this world.
Lei Xingfeng hid Lei Xingyao in the back basket, she wrapped her body in thick fur, just revealing a small head, and a big fur hat was buttoned on her head, but her two small hands were inserted on Lei Xingfeng's neck to keep warm, she looked very happy, and kept asking questions, she had lived in Tiger Cliff Castle since she was born, and she never left Tiger Cliff Castle, once she entered the wasteland, there were too many things that made her curious.
The old man of the thunderstorm clears the way ahead.
The reason why there are no hunters in the cold season is that the weather is extremely cold, and the second is that it is extremely easy to get lost in the wasteland, when the surrounding is full of snow, it is not a particularly experienced hunter, and it is almost certain that they will get lost, and the third is that the beasts in the cold season are extremely fierce, because it is not easy to hunt, most of the fierce beasts are hungry, even the most powerful hunters, they are not willing to provoke hungry beasts.
The most important thing is that in the cold season, no one knows when the blizzard will start, the kind of blizzard is difficult for humans to resist, whether it is lost or cold, for a hunter, it is the road to death.
Therefore, in the cold season, unless the family runs out of food, hunters will never go out to hunt, and even if they do come out to hunt, they only dare to hunt near human settlements.
There is a rope tied around the waist of the thunderstorm, and the other end is tied around the waist of Lei Xingfeng, even if the two of them are very strong, they also need to rely on a rope to maintain, once they are separated in the blizzard, the old man of the thunderstorm must be fine, but Lei Xingfeng and Lei Xingyao are not necessarily, the two of them are much worse in terms of knowledge and experience, for the sake of insurance, the old man still uses a rope to connect the two together.
Blizzard may not have lightning, the old man looked for thunder and lightning according to his senses.
This journey is extremely difficult, Lei Xingfeng used a piece of long fur to protect his nose and mouth, only revealing a pair of eyes, in his previous life, he knew that walking in the snow can easily hurt his eyes, it is snow blindness, there are no sunglasses in this world, however, after cultivating the wheel power, it should not be a big problem, and Lei Xingyao's head is almost wrapped in a big fur hat, and his eyes are also covered by long hair.
Lei Xingfeng walked with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and talked to Lei Xingyao in a low voice.
"Yaoyao, don't stare at the snow, your eyes will hurt. ”
Lei Xingyao smiled and said, "No, I'll look through the long hair...... My eyes don't hurt, brother, where are we going?"
Lei Xingfeng said: "I don't know the way either, follow Grandpa, Grandpa knows the way." ”
Lei Xingyao said: "Brother, are you tired?"
Lei Xingfeng felt a warmth in his heart, the little girl was very good at caring about people, he said: "Don't be tired, hehe, this little road can't stop me." ”
The old man shook the rope vigorously, Lei Xingfeng realized, immediately quickened his pace, and soon came behind the old man, and said, "Grandpa, what's wrong?"
"Let's take a rest, it's getting dark, I'll find a place to spend the night, you take Yaoyao to stay here and don't move, don't go away, I'll come when I go." ”
The old man untied the rope around his waist, carried the steel spear, and disappeared into the snow in a flash.
Lei Xingfeng sat down slowly, he didn't put down the basket, he still carried it, he said: "It's getting dark, the ground is still so bright, hehe, Yaoyao, are you afraid?" At this time, the snow had already decreased, and he could see more than ten meters away, relying on the wheel power of cultivation, he could clearly feel the movement within a radius of several hundred meters, and it was almost impossible for the beast to sneak attack.
In about ten minutes, the old man returned, and he said, "I have found an old tree, and we will go over." ”
The so-called ancient trees are super giant trees, and there are many of them in the wasteland, generally speaking, an ancient tree has a lot of huge tree holes, which are the habitat of hunters and beasts, especially those beasts that like trees, such as the big leopard snow leopard and the like.
This is a tree hole of about six or seven square meters, the hole is not big, after Lei Xingfeng came in, he was very satisfied, he quickly put down the back basket, took out the thick animal skin, and put it on the ground, only then did he take Lei Xingyao out and said, "Yaoyao, move your hands and feet, is it cold?"
Lei Xingyao smiled: "It's not cold, I've been very warm." Saying that, she moved her body, and then sat on the animal skin, and Lei Xingfeng took out a long-haired animal skin and draped it on her.
The old man stood at the entrance of the cave, staring at the sky, and after a while, he sighed and said: "It's been six days, and I still haven't found the area of the thunderstorm, so I'll rest here today, and I'll go find some dry wood." As he spoke, he took out a copper hanging pot from the wheel storage space, and took out a packet of marinated wild beef, as well as a small packet of sun-dried mushrooms and dried fruits.
Lei Xingfeng nodded and said, "I'll go find a few hardwood sticks." He said to Lei Xingyao again: "Yaoyao is waiting here, if there is danger, blow the whistle!"
Lei Xingyao said: "Okay." ”
Lei Xingfeng didn't dare to go far, so he looked for branches on the giant tree, cut five or six branches the thickness of duck eggs with a dagger, and quickly returned to the tree hole.
Peel off the branches on the branches, quickly make a wooden frame out, hang the copper hanging pot, and go to hold some snow and put it in the hanging pot, and then start processing the beef, Lei Xingyao bit her finger and stared at the meat in the hanging pot, in fact, she was already very hungry, but she refused to say it, and waited patiently.
The old man took a pile of dead wood, the thick wood was released from the wheel storage space, the old man stroked casually, the dead wood as thick as a bucket suddenly broke, several times in a row, the dead wood more than four meters long was cut into several sections, the dead wood was erected, the old man still stretched out a finger, and crossed it horizontally and horizontally, and a pile of square wooden sticks appeared.
Lei Xingfeng's eyes were about to pop out in surprise, this is too exaggerated, he never knew that the power of the Dao Wheel could be used like this, Lei Xingyao applauded: "Grandpa is so powerful!"
The old man said: "This is nothing, just a kind of use of wheel power, you can too, it is recorded in the Star Python Record." ”
Lei Xingfeng nodded and said, "Well, I haven't seen this record yet. ”
The old man suddenly laughed and said, "I found a good thing, hehe, your luck is good." As he spoke, he pulled out two crimson fruits, the size of walnuts.
Lei Xingfeng took it and said, "What kind of fruit?"
The old man said: "The blood fruit, also known as the big snow fruit, only bears fruit and grows on a blizzard day, and when the blizzard day ends, this fruit falls into the soil. ”
Lei Xingfeng said: "Grandpa, what's so special about this fruit?"
The old man said: "Well, it can relax the muscles and invigorate the blood, and improve the ability to resist cold." ”
Lei Xingfeng said: "Grandpa has eaten?"
The old man said: "It's useless for me to eat, you can eat it, it's too cold." ”
Lei Xingfeng nodded, stretched out his hand to hand the blood fruit to Lei Xingyao, and said, "Yaoyao, you eat." ”
The old man said: "One for each person, it's useless to eat too much of this thing." ”
Lei Xingfeng and Lei Xingyao ate one by one, and suddenly a warmth came up, and it felt very comfortable.
Lei Xingyao smacked his lips and said, "It's delicious." ”
The old man smiled: "Of course it's delicious, it's just that this thing is too rare, it has to be just ripe, mature to fall, the time is too short, if it weren't for the coincidence, I wouldn't have seen it, good luck, Ah Feng, you come to make a fire...... You can use the power of the thunder wheel. ”
Lei Xingfeng knew this skill, he picked up a dead wood, put his hands together, and rubbed it vigorously, and suddenly the wooden stick broke into a filament, and the arc of the fingertips beating rapidly ignited the wooden wire in an instant, and quickly set up the wooden stick, and soon the flames rose.
In a moment, the whole tree hole was as warm as spring.
Quickly cut the cured meat into small pieces, and then went to hold some snow and put it in the copper hanging pot, then closed the lid of the pot, and Lei Xingfeng concentrated on the fire.
The cooing sound sounded, and a rich smell of meat spread, Lei Xingfeng put the dried fruits and dried mushrooms in, and a fragrance mixed with the smell of meat floated out, Lei Xingyao couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, making a cooing sound, Lei Xingfeng touched her little head and said, "It'll be fine right away." "Since the cured meat has enough salt, he doesn't have to put any more salt.
Lei Xingfeng took out three pairs of chopsticks and three wooden bowls, handed them to the old man and Lei Xingyao, and said, "Eat." ”
The copper hanging pot is very large, with a small mouth and a deep belly, the three of them eat meat and drink thick soup, and soon the three of them sweat on their heads, and it will only take ten minutes for a large pot of meat to go down, Lei Xingyao is lying on the animal skin, touching his stomach, looking extremely satisfied, which makes the old man and Lei Xingfeng laugh.
The old man sighed in his heart, after he was seriously injured, with two little guys, he often couldn't even eat, it was really sad to think about it, but this old injury had basically recovered thanks to the tricks discovered by Lei Xingfeng, as long as he went through a few more baptisms of thunder and lightning, he was confident that he would reach the peak of his past, and even he was confident that he could go further.
Once completely recovered, then the sea and the sky, these two children will no longer suffer any harm and pain, he believes that with his own strength, it is enough to support a piece of the sky, but he forgets, he is not an ordinary person, but a fierce devil who is full of enemies, it turns out that he is still alone, and now he is with two children.
When the old man came to his senses, several people were all involved, which is a later story.
After eating, the three of them were wrapped in thick animal skins to sleep, and Lei Xingyao arched directly into Lei Xingfeng's arms, which was the warmest place.
In the middle of the night, a thunderclap rolled over, the old man jumped up in surprise, Lei Xingfeng and Lei Xingyao were both awakened by the thunder, Lei Xingfeng said: "Thunderstorm?"
The old man Ha Lu Ha Da smiled and said: "That's right, good luck, Ha Lu Ha, Ah Feng, you stay here to take care of Yaoyao, I will be back soon." ”
Lei Xingfeng said: "Be careful. ”
Lei Xingyao hugged Lei Xingfeng, and said with sleepy eyes: "Brother, sleepy ......" Lei Xingfeng said: "Sleep, sleep." ”
The old man came out of the hollow of the tree with his steel spear, and instead of going anywhere else, he climbed up the giant tree.
