Chapter 5: Sleeping in the Wilderness
As he rode his horse with all his might, it was difficult to see other warriors after half a day, and the surrounding environment began to become desolate.
Occasionally, the bones of unknown demon beasts could be seen scattered all over the place, and traces of fighting could be seen everywhere, which made Lin Ze's heart inevitably start to get nervous.
In the middle of the night, he arrived at the first destination he had chosen in advance, the Chaxi Valley.
It is a valley full of wild camellias, and a small stream flows from the valley.
In the valley, Lin Ze chose a location near the mountain and used a long knife to dig a pit in the mountain wall for one person to sit cross-legged. First put the package he was carrying in the cave, took out the formation foundation from it, and prepared to arrange two second-level formations around it.
Because he didn't have a formation flag, he could only rely on the stones and wild tea trees scattered on the ground to set up the formation.
Soon, Lin Ze basically completed the arrangement of a second-level phantom cloud array and a second-level phantom array.
Next, with reference to the diagram on the basis of the formation, he kept adjusting his position, and after a quarter of an hour, the surrounding air emitted a slight humming sound, and a faint cloud drifted out of the ground, converging in the center of the formation, and spreading around, completely covering the hole that Lin Ze had dug in advance.
At this time, it was getting dark.
Lin Ze didn't move around, tied the horse to the entrance of the cave, and he entered the cave and took out dry food to eat to replenish his strength.
After eating the dry food, he repeatedly practiced the Stacking Wave Knife Technique in his mind, and it was not until the second half of the night that he fell asleep.
Early the next morning, Lin Ze destroyed the formation around the cave entrance, cleaned up the traces, and practiced the sword technique again before hitting the road again.
He was extremely careful along the way, and did not ride his horse as he had just left the city, and the speed of his progress was not very fast, and it was only two days later that he suddenly realized that he had only traveled less than half the way.
At this time, he realized that he was a little reckless.
It's only been more than two days, and nearly half of the dry food I brought with me has been consumed, and if I return now, I can just hold on until I return to the city.
After thinking about it for a while, Lin Ze gritted his teeth and whispered: "Since you have come out, you can't go back empty-handed, at least you have to complete the task." ”
"This is the first time I have gone out to practice, and I can't give up halfway. ”
Thinking of this, Lin Ze gritted his teeth and continued on the road.
This time, instead of consuming the dry rations he was carrying, he tried to hunt.
At home, he had never killed a single chicken, and he had caught a live creature several times, but it was difficult to get his hands on it. It wasn't until he was finally a little hungry that he closed his eyes and cut off the neck of a hare with a knife.
Looking at the raging blood, Lin Ze's eyes were a little straight, and he forcibly suppressed the discomfort in his heart, and only took one of the hare's thighs, skinned and washed it and roasted it on the fire.
After eating all the half-cooked rabbit legs, Lin Ze seemed to get used to it a little, and took another hare's hind leg again and started grilling......
Two days later, Lin Ze walked out of a jungle with a knife in his right hand and a deer leg in his left hand, and bright red blood fell along the smooth cut on the blade and deer leg, dripping on the grass at his feet.
Compared with the other day, there is more fortitude on the immature cheeks, and when I kill wild things, my mood will no longer fluctuate for half a minute.
When I came to a small river, I skillfully peeled and washed the deer legs, and then roasted them on a bonfire that had already been lit, and the fragrance soon spread.
At this moment, from the jungle he had walked out of before, there was a rustling sound, and a faint smell of blood wafted in.
Lin Ze grabbed the long knife that was placed at his feet, stood up violently, and stared at the direction where the sound came from.
Along the way, he encountered some ordinary beasts, and there was no danger to him, but at this time there was a sense of unease. The feeling grew stronger as the sound got closer.
"Hey, it's actually a little guy in the late stage of the strong body realm. A voice came from the woods, followed by a man walking out.
This person is about forty years old, two heads taller than Lin Ze, with bronzed skin and strong muscles, full of a sense of strength.
In his hand he was holding a thick-backed knife, there were still undried blood stains on the knife, and a wound slipped from his left shoulder to his right abdomen, almost splitting his body, although the wound was scabbed, there was still blood oozing out in some places, which was extremely terrifying.
As soon as this person appeared, Lin Ze felt the violent pressure rushing towards him, making him can't help but take a few steps back before he stood firm, his face full of horror.
Lin Ze couldn't see the other party's cultivation, but that kind of rich and violent blood qi would only appear if a martial cultivator had reached a certain level.
And the aura on the man in front of him was not a complete blood qi, but mixed with a fierce qi, which was a sign that he had only been killed countless times.
Lin Ze felt that his legs were trembling a little, but he still squeezed out some smiles on his face, arched his hand at the strong man, and said, "This big brother, are you hungry? I just roasted a deer leg here." ”
Hearing him say this, the strong man's footsteps paused slightly, his gaze swept over Lin Ze's trembling legs, and an expression appeared on his face.
Lin Zeqiang pretended to be calm, in his opinion, there were many loopholes, and he didn't break it, came to the bonfire, reached out and grabbed the golden roasted deer leg, and tore a piece and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Big brother, be careful of the burn. Lin Ze hurriedly reminded.
The strong man glanced at Lin Ze, and the interest on his face seemed to be a little stronger.
The strong man didn't speak after that, but savored the vener leg meat in his hand, and ate almost half of the whole deer leg before throwing the rest to Lin Ze.
Taking the deer leg, Lin Ze tore off the meat on it one by one and wrapped it in a clean cloth, which was enough for him to eat for two days.
After doing this, he looked up and found that the strong man was looking at him with interest.
While praying in his heart that the other party would leave quickly, Lin Ze said with a concerned expression: "Big brother, your injuries are too serious, and I still have some gold sore medicine here." ”
The strong man waved his hand and said, "It's not in the way, it's all some skin trauma, and it'll be fine in three or four days." Besides, gold sore medicine is useless to me. ”
"Big brother, are you going back to the city?" Lin Ze asked again.
"If I don't go back to the city, I'll just walk around. The strong man replied.
Lin Ze was choked in an instant, and he couldn't help but slander in his heart: "Turn your sister, who would wander around with such a serious injury, is it a long life?"
The two were silent for a while, and Lin Ze couldn't help but ask again: "My name is Lin Ze, I don't know what to call my eldest brother?"
"Zhai Yi!"
