Chapter 7 Into the Mountain
Up to now, Li Jun has only a pair of tattered pants left, and even his shoes have long been scrapped.
After cleaning up, Li Jun felt refreshed, came to the python's corpse, easily cut the snake skin with his snake teeth, cut off pieces of bloody and steaming snake meat, and threw it to Silver Star to eat, and picked out the snake gall bladder and threw it to Silver Star.
Li Jun can eat raw seafood, but he is a little frightened by python meat, after all, as we all know, snakes have a lot of parasites, and he is also afraid of eating problems.
It's too bloody, although four potential points were added just now, but only two points were added to qi and blood, and now it's not too hungry.
Remembering that there were some dry shrubs in the coconut grove, Li Jun got up and ran to the coconut grove, and quickly collected a bundle of dry firewood and came back.
After eating, Li Jun peeled off all the snakeskin, divided it into several large pieces, cleaned it and dried it on the reef.
There is no way to preserve these snake meats, and with the hot and humid climate here, they will spoil after two or three days at most, which is a helpless thing, depending on how much Silver Star can eat.
In one day, Silver Star ate about one-tenth of it, and it hadn't eaten enough for a long time, and it didn't eat much.
For the next two days, one person and one wolf, eating every day, ate less than half of the snake meat, this is still Li Jun roasted while eating, roasted a lot of snake jerky, although now Li Jun is not short of food, but be prepared.
In the past two days, Li Jun has also thought clearly, he wants to go into the mountains to see if he can bypass the swamp and find another way out.
No matter how big the island is, there is a limit, and if there are people on the island, there will always be some traces left on the seaside.
Li Jun wanted to find out if there was any other way to leave than to stay here all the time, so he decided to take Silver Star with him when his body recovered.
On the fourth day, Li Jun threw the snake meat, which had already deteriorated a little, into a puddle a little farther away, so that the snake meat would not rot and deteriorate, and put away the stinky snake skin on the reef, and turned back to the stone chamber.
Silver Star has slept when he is full for the past three days, and eats when he wakes up, his body looks a little fleshy, stronger, and his spirit is much better.
Compared with when I first met, it was completely different, the cleaned silver star, with silver-white hair, looked much more pleasing to the eye, and now it is a little stronger, a little wolf-like, not like when Li Jun first met, worse than a stray dog.
Next, for more than ten days, all he drank was coconut water, and he ate fish caught from nearby puddles, as well as a crocodile of more than two meters.
Silver Star's body has basically recovered, his body has become stronger, and his wounds have healed, leaving only a few pink scars, and there is no effect on his movements.
After the snakeskin was dried, Li Jun put it away and kneaded it with his hands until the snakeskin was soft, and then used it to make a set of shoddy leather armor and leather skirts, which were very tough and strong.
Ordinary people definitely can't wear it, although it has been rubbed soft, it can easily wear through the skin of ordinary people, Li Jun's skin is tough, and he also feels a little uncomfortable, so he can only wear it.
In addition, Li Jun also made a snakeskin backpack and a snakeskin bag, both of which were made as big as possible, especially the bag, which was enough to fit one person.
They all have one thing in common, that is, they are particularly rough and ugly, but Li Jun doesn't care, as long as they are strong enough to hold things.
Li Jun even made two, and hung a special sleeve for snake teeth on his waist, so that he could easily pull out the snake teeth when he needed to.
There are still two large snakeskins left, so I stuff them into the backpack for backup, and put my original backpack directly into the newly made backpack.
The next morning, everything was ready, but the snake jerky had no salt after all, it had spoiled and smelled, so it could only be thrown away, and the bag was filled with a large bag of coconuts, and Li Jun took the silver star, which had become strong, out of the swamp and set off towards the mountains to the north.
After more than ten days of getting along, one person and one wolf do not say that they have the same heart, simple communication is no longer a problem, Silver Star is very intimate and dependent on Li Jun, it can be seen that Silver Star is a little afraid of the mountain, but it does not prevent Li Jun from entering the mountain.
Li Jun also has no choice, he is different from Yinxing, he has to enhance his strength, it is possible to find a way to get out of here, to find a way to go home, although there is little hope, but he can't just be in the swamp, and wait for death!
Silver Star's current strength has improved a lot, equivalent to half the strength of a giant python that was killed, but Silver Star's advantage is speed and agility.
Silver Star, who has recovered his strong body, can't catch up with Silver Star even if he runs with all his strength at Li Jun's current speed, and Silver Star has a keen sense of hearing and smell, and his perception of danger is countless times stronger than him.
They walked along the edge of the swamp and encountered a crocodile, just an ordinary crocodile, which was rushed up and dragged by Silver Star, and then Li Jun stepped forward and killed them in three or two clicks, which was regarded as replenishing their meat, and they didn't have to worry about food shortages in a day or two.
After Li Jun removed the crocodile's internal organs, he didn't peel the skin, dragged the crocodile tail, and dragged it all the way north, he had tried crocodile skin before, maybe it was the difference in strength, and the tough snake skin was too different, which also made him completely lose interest in crocodile skin.
Every time there is a beast nearby, Yinxing can find it in time, except for some birds, it is the more common snakes, and there are no large beasts, ordinary beasts, Li Jun is not interested in hunting, and there is no potential to kill them, and there is no way to take them away.
When approaching the mountains, the sun had already set, and after a day's walk, Li Jun did not feel tired, but he had to find a safe place to spend the night at night, and the dense bushes were mixed with some trees that were not too tall.
On the edge of the weeds, there were many kinds of mushrooms, which could be seen everywhere, strange shapes and bright colors, which dazzled him, but he didn't know these mushrooms.
I also saw a few plants similar to Ganoderma lucidum, Li Jun picked them up casually and put them in his bag, although it looked like Ganoderma lucidum, but Li Jun didn't dare to try it, the ghost knows if the Ganoderma lucidum in this world is the same as the Lingzhi on the earth.
It was getting dark, and they also walked to the foot of the mountain, where the brown soil, overgrown with weeds, and staggered vines, and all kinds of trees, large and small, seemed a little dense, and the whole looked extremely messy, but full of life.
The protruding stones are covered with vines, there is no way to go up the mountain, if you want to go up the mountain, you can only wade through these vines, Silver Star does not have much effect, but the two big bags on his body, plus the crocodile in his hand, in this place where the vines are densely intertwined, it is very inconvenient to walk.
"Silver Star, come back!" Li Jun checked his surroundings, found a relatively high place, and beckoned to Silver Star, who had been exploring the way ahead.
Then he put the bag aside, pulled out the snake's fangs and cleared out a place, found dry wood, and made a large fire.
Yinxing doesn't eat cooked food, Li Jun skinned the crocodile, cut off enough meat for him to eat twice, and gave it the whole, it is estimated that tonight and tomorrow morning, after eating two meals, there will not be much left.
After eating, running, and drinking, he took out the snake skin in his backpack and spread it next to the fire to prepare to rest, Silver Star is a wolf that haunts the night, and with Silver Star vigil, Li Jun is not worried about being attacked by wild beasts at night.
Li Jun soon fell into a deep sleep, and Silver Star lay beside him, half-squinting his eyes, alert to the movements around him.
In a daze, Li Jun suddenly heard Yinxing's low roar of "woo", he instantly opened his eyes and sat up, only to see that Yinxing had already gotten up and bared his teeth and let out a low roar of "woo" on a tree with lush foliage.
Turning over and standing up, he pulled out two snake teeth and held them in his hands, Li Jun looked towards the big tree, above a branch of the big tree, there were two fist-sized, yellow eyes, staring at them here, a little far away, I couldn't see what kind of animal it was.
Can make Silver Star give a warning, at least it is the same as its strength, or stronger than Silver Star, I can't see the specific appearance clearly, Li Jun doesn't dare to act rashly, he can stand on a branch, the size is definitely not too big, it is likely to be some kind of large bird.
After a few minutes of stalemate, and there was no movement, Li Jun leaned over from the ground, picked up a bowl-sized gravel, and threw it at those eyes.
Thrown a little off, smashed to the side of the branch, "bang", followed by the sound of flapping wings, the owner of those eyes, frightened, flew up from the branch and quickly rose into the air.
Li Jun vaguely saw that it was a huge bird, and after the big bird flapped its wings and rose into the air, it landed on another tree, still staring at this side, obviously refusing to leave easily.
Frowning and thinking about it, Li Jun didn't care about it anymore, put away the snake teeth and walked back to the snake skin, sat down to rest, but didn't sleep again, there was a silver star alert, he was not afraid of the big bird sneak attack, there was no need to stalemate with it.
Not long after sitting down, the sound of the big bird's wings flapping sounded again, and it soon fell, and beside the crocodile corpse not far away, the ashes that had been extinguished were blown into the air by the strong wind that was fanned by its wings.
Its target was not them, but the corpse of the crocodile, and Silver Star was about to pounce on it.
Seeing this, Li Jun hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him: "Silver Star, don't move."
Stand in front of Silver Star, lest Silver Star's actions cause conflict, and at the same time pull out the snake teeth and look at the giant eagle in front of him vigilantly, just in case.
While being on guard, Li Jun also carefully observed the giant eagle in front of him, which was taller than the silver star, very majestic, with black and gray feathers mixed with golden patterns.
The legs are thicker than the thighs of a person, the claws are as thick as the forearms of a person, the eyes are sharp, and the beak is huge and sharp, and it seems that the strength is much stronger than that of the silver star.
It was not afraid of the man and wolf in front of it, pecking at the remaining crocodile meat by itself, and did not care about their appearance at all.
The giant eagle pecked most of the remaining crocodile meat, and seemed to be full, raised its huge eagle head and glanced at them.
Kicked the ground with both legs, flapped his wings and flew away, and disappeared in the blink of an eye, in the night sky, the tense nerves of a man and a wolf relaxed.
If you don't stop the silver star, there is really a conflict, it is estimated that most of them will suffer, and the breath of this giant eagle is obviously stronger than the giant python they killed.
Although there are two snake teeth as weapons, Li Jun is not skilled, and it is difficult to exert the power of snake teeth, and the snake teeth are too short, and the level is not high, and the lethality against these large beasts is really limited.
Snake teeth are too short for weapons, and they are okay for small beasts, while large beasts are likely to have extremely strong defensive capabilities.
Even covered with thick hard armor, such a short blade is really not much use, maybe when encountering a powerful beast, even the skin can't be pierced.
