Chapter 7: Lost
According to the knowledge in "The First Solution of Medicinal Herbs", Chen Youdao found a seemingly ordinary grass in a bush, and hurriedly happily used a firewood knife to dig it out.
This is an intoxicating grass, there is no fatal toxicity, the biggest effect is to make the user fall into a coma, it is a natural sweat medicine, the young leaves of the intoxicating grass are harmless, and the real effect is its rhizome.
An intoxicating grass the size of a palm can make four or five sturdy adult men fall into a coma and be slaughtered without knowing it.
Although Chen Youdao found an intoxicating grass, he was not satisfied, because it was impossible to stun a whole pack of wolves with an intoxicating grass, not to mention that wild wolves were carnivores, how could they come to eat grass for no reason.
Chen Youdao knows in the animal world that wolves are not absolute carnivores, but unless there is a lack of certain trace elements in the body, they will not take the initiative to eat grass in normal times.
Although this is no longer the earth, wolves eat meat, otherwise they would not attack the villagers of Scarlet Hand Village and use them as food.
The purpose of his search for intoxicating grass was to hunt.
Smearing the herbivore's food with the juice of the intoxicating herbivore, letting the herbivore eat it, and then using the herbivore's carcass to lure the wolves into his trap is what a civilized man should do.
Chen Youdao quickly found several plants that herbivores like to eat, and the reason why he knew that these plant herbivores like to eat was because these plants had certain medicinal value, so they were recorded in the "First Solution of Medicinal Herbs", otherwise he would be a little waxy.
Chen Youdao smeared the juice of the intoxicating grass on the young branches, and then left, if he continued to stay nearby and wait for the prey to take the bait, with the vigilance of herbivores, there would be no herbivores coming to eat, not to mention that he would have to find other herbs.
He also had to find plants to smear his body odor on, otherwise he would be spotted by the wolves before he could set the trap, and then he would have no other options to choose from than to turn into a dinner for the wolves.
Even when his physical strength was perfect, he didn't have the confidence to outrun the wolves, let alone his current physical strength.
With his combat power of only five, not to mention a group of wolves, he is enough to choke on a medium-sized fierce dog, not to mention that he is just an untrained ordinary person, running to fight with a group of wolves who drink blood, it is not called fighting at all, but to add food to others.
What's more, his target is the entire wolf pack, the intoxicating herb that makes people quickly stunned, is not suitable for the wolf pack, if you want to destroy the entire wolf pack, you must find another herb that can make the living beings slowly stunned, otherwise it will alarm the wolves, and it will be difficult for him to set a trap.
The size of the prey he caught must not be too small, otherwise it will be enough for the wolves to eat, at least the size of a fawn.
The wolf's wisdom can be regarded as among the best among animals, and Chen Youdao doesn't want to lose his life because of his own small mistakes.
The herb that Chen Youdao is looking for now is a fruit called Paradise Fruit, the main effect of Paradise Fruit is hallucination, similar to the effect of harmful hallucinogenic drugs, and according to the knowledge he has obtained, Tiannan Prefecture happens to grow Paradise Fruit.
Compared with conventional harmful hallucinogenic drugs, the difference between Elysium Fruit is that its hallucinogenic effect is more than ten times that of it, and after the extreme hallucinogenic effect, the user will fall into extreme weakness and do not even have the strength to move a finger.
The reason why the Fruit of Paradise has such a powerful effect is that the Fruit of Paradise is not meant to be taken by ordinary people in the first place, but by people who are cultivating.
The fruit of Elysium has a smell that attracts many herbivores to eat it, and it is also a way for Elysium to spread its leaves.
Of course, in order to ensure the success rate, Chen Youdao also had to find another plant, mixed with the fruit of paradise and smeared on the flesh, to further attract wolves to come and eat, to ensure that the medicinal effect of the fruit of paradise can be maximized, after all, wolves are really not herbivores.
Of course, as a species that can continue to this day, although there is no cultural inheritance, the memories rooted in the blood have also taught it how to distinguish danger.
At this time, it was close to the afternoon, and the sun was about to set, but at this time, Chen Youdao found that he was lost.
Of course, Tiannan Prefecture is not all poor mountains and bad waters, otherwise there would be no human beings, and in places where human beings live, since they want to live, as long as they are not primitive people who drink blood, of course they will use fire.
Therefore, near the gathering place where people live, a large amount of vegetation will be destroyed, and there will be many fewer wild animals nearby, so Chen Youdao will not get lost.
But Chen Youdao is just an ordinary person, he has no experience in the mountains and forests at all, and he didn't think of making a mark or anything in advance, so it is normal to get lost unconsciously.
Seeing that the sky was getting darker and darker, Chen Youdao's mood was becoming more and more depressed, the most dangerous time in the deep mountains and old forests was at night, not only because there would be carnivores coming out to hunt at night, but also because ordinary people could not see the danger hidden in the dark.
He also has no habit of smoking, and there is no fire source on his body, and it is basically impossible to expect him to drill wood to make fire.
At this time, he has begun to regret why he is so impulsive, he rushed into the deep mountains and old forests without preparation, he is usually not such an impulsive person, although he is not a person who plans and then acts, but he still has the most basic crisis common sense.
He can only attribute all this to the fact that he really treats the new world as a game, and he is too lax psychologically, but unfortunately the new world is not a game in his common sense, but a real world, and there is no so-called rollback setting.
Dying in the New World, although it is not a death like death, but after becoming an NPC in the New World, according to the information he learned from the little vixen, in fact, from a certain point of view, the consequences of becoming an NPC in the New World are more terrible than death.
After all, the constant repetition of life somewhere, after every death, will be refreshed again, the most important thing is that you don't realize that you have died once, this is the real horror.
As a person with real thinking memory, as long as he is mentally normal, it is impossible for him to like such a life like data.
"Grandma is a bear, I Chen Youdao doesn't even know where my girlfriend is, is she going to be buried in the deep mountains and old forests of this other world!"
At this time, Chen Youdao had long forgotten about the removal of wild wolves, and now he should be worried about his own life, and he ran around in the mountains and forests, and he didn't eat lunch, and now he is hungry for a long time.
Chen Youdao didn't even bother to move his fingers at this time, not only did he lose his path, but even the water he was carrying on his body had already been drunk, and he had already begun to fall into despair.
He didn't have any experience of surviving in the wild, and he had previously consumed a lot of physical strength, and his weakness at this time was an inevitable result.
The sky was getting darker and darker, and Chen Youdao couldn't help but shudder when he thought that he was like a game NPC, constantly repeating the same experience, and his desire to survive was stimulated again, forcibly cheering himself up, and struggling to get up.
He didn't believe that in such a large forest, there were not even a few wild fruits, even if they were poisonous, it was better to starve to death, or be excreted by wild beasts as dung, and even if he died, he would take away the wild beasts that gnawed at his corpse.
Chen Youdao relied on his unreliable intuition and kept moving cautiously in the forest, for fear that the beast would find his traces.
It's just that what makes Chen Youdao strange is that he didn't find any traces of wild beasts along the way, let alone large beasts, and he didn't even see a single bird.
Even if Chen Youdao didn't have any experience in surviving in the wild, he knew that this was very unusual, Chen Youdao was also a nimble person, and it didn't take long for him to think that there must be something near here that made ordinary beasts fear.
At this time, he also realized that he had just encountered any danger along the way, which was not like a reckless primeval forest, and it was too safe on the way.
I'm afraid that he didn't know when he had already broken into the brink of danger, but his own inexperience led to the fact that he only discovered this fatal problem now.
Although Chen Youdao knows that there is danger nearby, he knows one thing better, that is, you expect a person who can't even tell the direction in the forest, how can you tell what direction the danger is coming from.
It's as ridiculous as asking a blind man who touches an elephant what it looks like and what color it is, and he can only bet that his luck hasn't faded yet.
Chen Youdao also knew that the best way at this time should be to find a place to hide and wait for the next day's sunshine, which was the only way for him to survive, but now his problem is that there is no place for him to hide nearby.
Fortunately, although there are unknown dangers hidden here, it is precisely because of this that he has been able to go all the way to the present.
