Chapter 50: To Survive
Ye Bufan sneaked around cautiously for a while, and then saw a bush not far away, Ye Bufan stopped, this is a plant with spikes.
Even the blades are stiff and sharp, and although they may not hurt if they are pierced on the body, they are certainly uncomfortable.
Ye Bufan was very careful to pinch some thornless parts of the shrub's trunk and pull them away, and then walked in carefully.
He tried not to touch the plants and vines as he walked, of course, there were occasionally some spikes scratching his body, but this level of scratching did not leave any traces except for some discomfort, with the strength of his current body.
After a while, he discovered that what was hidden by these shrubs was a deep cave entrance, the hole was not big, only enough for Ye Bufan to burrow into, and this cave was Ye Bufan's current home.
This cave is very cleverly set up, the shrubs outside the entrance of the cave cover the hole tightly, if you don't remove the shrubs, even from a close distance, you can't see that there is a hidden hole.
And because these shrubs are some plant vines with sharp and hard thorns, the demon beasts that usually come out to prey will bypass them, and even some herbivorous demon beasts rarely feed on them.
Ye Bufan untied the bag on his back, because he couldn't enter the cave at all with the bag on his back, he put the sack into the hole first.
He himself went in, pushing the sack into the hole, the walls of which were smooth and slightly inclined downward.
Because there is no light source in it, the cave is very dark, but as a half-demon, Ye Bufan's vision at this time is completely different from that of humans, he has the ability to see at night, and in the darkness where he can't see his five fingers, he can also see clearly as if he sees day.
Ye Bufan crawled forward for a distance of nearly ten meters, and Ye Bufan crawled out of this inclined passage and entered a larger cave.
The cave was about the size of a small room of fifty square meters, and the top of the rock was high enough for him to stand up straight, and it was a bit higher, a partial cave.
Then, after Ye Bufan hurriedly put the bag in the cave, he went out along the passage where he came.
Ye Bufan climbed to the entrance of the cave and rearranged the shrubs at the entrance of the cave to cover the entrance of the cave to prevent any demon beasts from discovering here, these are the survival skills in the wild that he learned in Yanwutang.
When there was no trace of anyone entering, he retreated backwards and retreated into the hole.
Ye Bufan took a breath, there was nothing else in this cave except for a pile of dry and withered grass spread on the bottom of the cave.
In fact, this cave was also snatched by him from a fat Fang Ri Rabbit recently, God knows how that chubby Fang Ri Rabbit made such a large and complete cave, coupled with Ye Bufan's continuous expansion this month, it is finally a relatively comfortable place to live.
As for the benevolent Fang Ri Rabbit, because this island has no aura, Fang Ri Rabbit is just an ordinary rabbit on this island, and it has become Ye Bufan's biggest prey after coming to this island, which has become his dinner and entered his stomach.
It's a pity that he can't do anything about the skin after he hunts it and catches it in tatters, otherwise, maybe he can make a carpet or something, at least he doesn't have to sleep in a pile of weeds, it's weird and uncomfortable.
Ye Bufan thought this occasionally, and sat down for a while to rest.
Ye Bufan dragged the sack beside him over, and carefully took out the snake eggs inside one by one. There are several rectangular holes in the walls of the cave.
These are all specially dug out by Ye Bufan to put things, just like cabinets, but they are still empty now.
Ye Bufan put the snake eggs in one by one, and the rows were neat.
The last snake egg, Ye Bufan didn't put it in, he knocked it heavily on a small stone, and a shallow crack appeared on the demon snake egg, these demon snake eggs were much harder than the eggs.
This is also due to the fact that the natural conditions in the Ethereal Island are far worse than those on the Jiuzhou Continent.
Ye Bufan used his fingers to open a small hole in the damaged area of egg thirst, put it to his mouth and sucked it hard, a stream of cool egg liquid was sucked into his mouth along the gap, and he enjoyed it for a while, and then swallowed it, this way of eating raw, when Ye Bufan first came here, he was very resistant at first, but now he is a little used to it.
Another reason, and even more frustrating, was that most of his food here had to be eaten alive to avoid the dangers that were everywhere.
Ye Bufan didn't dare to build a fire to barbecue the food at all, not to mention the rich fragrance and rising smoke columns, whether it would attract powerful demon beasts.
Ye Bufan himself didn't have a bottom in his heart, whether those terrifying predator-level demon beasts on this island were afraid of fire or not, it was estimated that they should not be afraid, the trees here could not even burn on fire, let alone these powerful demon beasts.
For those terrifying guys, Ye Bufan had already encountered them a few times, and he didn't want to meet them again, it was really too exciting, he couldn't even beat them! Fortunately, he had learned light skills at the beginning, otherwise it would have become someone else's dinner long ago.
"Alas...... I really miss the food at home in Huaye Village!" Ye Bufan sighed and said.
It had only been a short month, but it seemed to him that many years had passed, as if everything that was familiar had happened a long time ago.
Since coming to this island, Ye Bufan has not eaten a serious meal again, there is no salt, no seasoning, no pots and pans, but these are not important,
What made Ye Bufan even more frustrated was that he didn't find clean water.
At least, he had not found any streams or rivers in his range of activity, and so far he had not seen a trace of natural water.
And although the sky here is covered with dark clouds and lightning and thunder all day long, in fact, not a single drop of rain has fallen for a whole month......
The plants here are extremely tenacious, they can absorb the extremely thin water vapor from the air to survive, and there is no need to worry about the lack of water.
"I have to think of a way, it's not okay to always go on like this" Ye Bufan often thought like this: "I am a young master who has been nurtured by the fragrance of books since I was a child, but I can't always drink blood like this." ”
Ye Bufan sat for a while, shook his head, and carefully crawled out of the hole along the passage with the empty bag, and looked at the entrance of the cave for a while.
Fang Cai carefully climbed out. He went out along the road he had just taken, carefully observing the situation around him, and in a moment he had found the dead log he had just found, and he was half-lying on the ground, and he put his ear up to listen, and grinned a little.
Suddenly, the smile on Ye Bufan's face froze, he bent his head down and pressed his right ear tightly against the ground, that's right, a light and elastic shock was rapidly approaching his place, it was the footsteps of a large-sized demon beast.
Ye Bufan quickly raised his head and looked around, not far from his left was a tree of unusual thickness, which was enough for several people to hug each other.
Without hesitation, he ran over, jumped up the tree and climbed a branch upside down, and then his tail flicked out and wrapped around the branch above, and with another force, he went up again......
After three or two strokes, he climbed to a height of about four or five meters above the ground, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, stopped and leaned on a branch to look down.
At this moment, a series of hurried footsteps accompanied by the turning of blades of grass quickly rushed towards the tree where Ye Bufan was, and Ye Bufan heard it more clearly.
Closer, closer, this object approached very quickly, Ye Bufan felt that he could even hear the unique heavy wheezing sound of that large demon beast running as he was nervous.
Less leaning, three bull-headed demon beasts with brown patterns on their bodies appeared under the tree where Ye Bufan had stayed just now. They gasped, and from time to time a thick guttural sound rolled through their throats.
This is a height about an adult, the appearance characteristics are like a bison, but the difference is that it, cold crocodile-like emotionless eyes, sharp teeth like razors, from time to time some saliva slides down the corners of the mouth, dripping on the ground, yes, this bull-headed monster is not a herbivorous monster, but a meat eater.
From such a distance, Ye Bufan could even smell the peculiar stench of carnivorous creatures in their mouths.
Their mouths were wide open and there were rows of sharp teeth, apparently used to tear open the bodies of their prey.
In Ye Bufan's previous hunting experience in Yanwutang, I regret remembering that this bull-headed demon beast is called "Niu Jinniu", a very local tyrant title.
Obviously, these cattle and golden bulls are not like their "fellow bison", they are not vegetarians, and the three cow golden bulls, apparently a family, one vigilantly looks at the surroundings, and the other two have their heads down, as if carefully searching for traces and smells on the ground.
Ye Bufan lay motionless on the tree, motionless like a dead tree.
These three bulls and golden bulls obviously sensed something, if Ye Bufan's actions were slower just now, then the current situation would be very dangerous.
The three bulls seemed to have discovered something, and looked back and forth with some confusion, and two of them made a silly soft cry, as if they were communicating with each other.
They slowly searched back and forth in small circles, trying to find something, food was quite scarce in the Ethereal Island, where even predator-level monsters were trying their best to survive.
At the same time, they are the food in the mouths of higher-level predator-level demon beasts, after all, their large size is their advantage and disadvantage to survive here, and their food needs are greater, and this is the law of the forest on Ethereal Island, survival of the fittest.
