Celestial being

Yuan Ming moved his muscles and bones and found that there was still pain when the muscles in the wound were pulled, but it was much better than yesterday.

After thinking about it for a while, he decided not to risk hunting animals yet, but planned to make some traps to see if he could trap some small animals such as hares and gophers.

Wait until you have eaten and drank enough and gained strength before hunting the wild beasts.

As soon as he thought of this, Yuan Ming began to collect tough vines and branches from the surrounding area, while looking for a suitable placement location.

He himself didn't have much experience or memory about animal hunting. He could only rely on vague impressions to make some nooses and bayonet. Whether he could catch the beast depended on luck.

However, when placing the trap, he did collect some wild fruits.

Some of them are as big as apples, with plump purple-red bodies, some are as small as projectiles, and the color is bright red. There is also one that looks like a raspberry, with densely distributed tiny particles on it, which looks very attractive.

Yuan Ming didn't know any of these wild fruits. The reason why he picked them back was because the hunger in his belly became stronger and stronger, and he could no longer wait for his trap to show its power.

He was also very entangled when picking, for fear of picking poison, so he could only judge by simply observing whether these wild fruits had been eaten by wild animals.

The items he brought back to the cave were all chosen by him.

After blocking the hole with tree roots, Yuan Ming hesitantly picked up the smallest red raspberry-like fruit, put it into his mouth, and took a bite.

The sweet juice instantly overflowed Yuan Ming's teeth and cheeks, making him couldn't help but open his eyes wide.

After a small taste, Yuan Ming found that there was nothing special about it, so he continued to eat.

After eating the small red fruit, it only satisfied his taste buds, but did not relieve his hunger at all.

So Yuan Ming began to try the second fruit, which was bright red in color and as small as cherries.

The color of this fruit is brighter than red raspberries. It looks crystal clear and very plump and smooth. It should taste good at first glance.

Yuan Ming picked one up and put it in his mouth. The moment he chewed it, he was disappointed.

A sour and numb juice mixed with the hard pulp flowed between his teeth and cheeks. The feeling was stronger than chewing a handful of peppercorns.

Yuan Ming spit out the fruit residue and stuck out his tongue.

As a result, when he wanted to enjoy the raspberry fruit, he realized that he had eaten all the fruit without realizing it.

Unfortunately, the numb feeling in his mouth not only did not slow down with the passage of time, but became more intense, and even spread to Yuan Ming's cheeks.

He had no choice but to pick up the last purple fruit, which was as big as an apple, and bit into it.

There was a "click" sound.

As soon as the peel of the purple-red fruit was bitten, a slightly sweet and slightly sour smell immediately covered the numb smell, and was replaced by an indescribable fragrance.

It's like a mixture of orange and apple. The more you smell it, the more it rushes into your mind and makes you want to stop.

"tasty!"

Yuan Ming couldn't help but take a deep sniff. The moment the rich smell rushed into his nose, his vision suddenly became blurry, and his whole body became extremely stiff, and he fell straight to the side.

"Rush, rush, get it..."

Yuan Ming's stiff tongue could no longer accurately pronounce the word "poisoned", and then he rolled his eyes and passed out.

When he woke up again, it was already evening. The setting sun outside could not shine in from the direction of the cave entrance, and the cave seemed a little dark.

Yuan Ming sat up with his hands on the ground and moved his hands and feet. He found that except for a slight soreness, there was no obvious abnormality. He didn't even feel dizzy in his head, as if he had just slept.

He rubbed his brows, glanced at the uneaten wild fruits on the ground, and his stomach growled again.

"We can't continue like this. Otherwise, let alone killing a beast to collect blood, I'm afraid I will starve to death first and become the beast's ration."

Yuan Ming thought for a moment, stood up, and walked out of the cave.

Looking at the coming night, he quickened his pace and returned to the river again.

Since wild fruits can't be eaten casually, and it's hard to satisfy your hunger, it's better to come back and catch some piranhas to satisfy your hunger.

Yuan Ming walked to the shore, looked at the turbid waves, and was thinking about how to catch fish, when he suddenly heard the roar of beasts coming from the forest behind him.

He immediately became nervous. After running out for a few steps, he jumped up and jumped two feet high. He grabbed the horizontal branch of an old tree and climbed to the tree.

He was lying on his knees, looking towards the source of the sound from a high place, but was blocked by the mottled branches and leaves in the distance, making it impossible to see anything clearly.

After some hesitation, Yuan Ming still raised his arms in the forest and leaned towards that side carefully.

After leaping over seven or eight trees, Yuan Ming stopped at a huge towering tree. Although it was still about ten feet away, he could already see the situation there through the gaps in the branches in front.

"boom"

A dull crash sounded. In the forest ahead, a green wolf was knocked over by another larger gray wolf. His body hit an old tree, causing the old tree to shake violently. The leaves The rustling whereabouts.

After the green wolf got up, he didn't stop at all. He jumped up and pounced directly on the gray wolf, biting it together.

Yuan Ming looked at this scene and couldn't help but frown.

The green wolf that broke the tree earlier had some indescribably weird movements. No matter how you looked at it, it felt a little awkward.

Before he could figure it out, the fight between the two wolves had already come to an end.

Long before Yuan Ming arrived, they had already severely injured each other. Now both of them had little fighting power. The gray wolf bit the green wolf's throat, and his own abdomen also had a gash, and blood was already dripping from his belly. One place.

In the center of the field, the only sounds left were the whimpering sounds of the two wolves dying.

"I can't find anything even after wearing iron shoes. It takes no effort to get it. It seems that I'm lucky." Seeing this scene, Yuan Ming was overjoyed.

As long as he can get the blood of these two wolves, doesn't he have completed his mission?

"You have to wait while it's hot. If it's dead and the blood has solidified, you won't be able to get it out." Yuan Ming felt anxious and hurriedly swung over there.

However, the moment he jumped up, he saw a scene that sent a chill down his spine.

The green wolf whose throat was bitten off shrunk little by little under his gaze. From under the wide wolf skin, two human paws were exposed, and then the calves, and finally turned into a complete human body. .

The green wolf was clearly the furry beast transformed by one of the savages who had traveled with him earlier.

Seeing this, Yuan Ming couldn't help but froze and stopped on an old tree, feeling sad in his heart.

It was this moment of stay that saved his life.

The grass and trees were turbulent in the bushes below, and hyenas, all covered in earthy brown and with mixed hair, rushed out from all directions at an alarming speed, heading straight for the gray wolf's body and biting it.

Soon, a hyena discovered the body of the savage, bit his ankle, and dragged it out from under the green wolf's skin, which immediately attracted two other hyenas to fight for it.

The three hyenas tore at the savage's body and quickly devoured it, leaving only a pile of bones.

Yuan Ming looked at the tragic scene below and was glad that he had not passed by, otherwise there would have been absolutely no chance of survival under the siege of dozens of hyenas.

It's just a pity that the gray wolf will definitely not be able to get the animal blood.

Yuan Ming continued to crawl on the tree, watching the feast of wild beasts, not daring to make any sound.

After about a cup of tea, the hyenas finished sharing the food, eating the two corpses cleanly, not even sparing the internal organs and intestines, leaving only numerous bones, and then left together.

Yuan Ming waited patiently in the tree for a long time. After seeing that no other beast appeared, he swung from the tree.

After landing, he saw the mess on the ground and smelled the fishy smell in the air. Unexpectedly, he didn't feel nauseated. Instead, he felt that there was a hint of tempting sweetness in the bloody smell.

He found some uneaten bones from the remaining gray wolf skeletons, held them in his arms and climbed up the tree. When it was safe, he started to eat.

At this moment, Yuan Ming's mind was extremely calm. He no longer thought about useless things. He just calmly thought about what to do next in order to complete the task and return alive to deliver the mission.

Tomorrow is the last day, and he doesn't have much time left.

After eating the gray wolf flesh and blood, Yuan Ming threw the bones down the tree. When he stood up, he immediately felt a heat spreading from his lower abdomen, and his whole body began to warm up.

"This flesh and blood is so nourishing, and the strength has also been restored a lot. It is much stronger than those river fish, wild fruits and so on." Yuan Ming was overjoyed, jumped down from the tree, and landed firmly on the ground.

He came to the gray wolf's corpse and picked out a few sharp ribs from it. He also selected two tibia bones three or four feet long, and found a tree vine to tie them up.

When he turned around, Yuan Ming saw the scattered skeleton of the savage. After hesitation, he helped him gather it together and buried it with earth, rocks and leaves.

"Ashes return to dust, dust returns to dust." Yuan Ming muttered.

After that, he stood up, glanced at the green wolf's furry skin that fell to the side, resisted the urge to take it away, and left dragging the bundle of animal bones.

Not long after he left, at the top of the old tree where he was hiding, higher than the canopy of the entire forest, a figure stood with his hands behind his back. The tall figure was the elder calling fire.

Just a little bit on his toes, he fell lightly from the top of the tree, leaned over and picked up the piece of green wolf skin.

"This Central Plains man is quite interesting." Elder Huhuo glanced at the direction Yuan Ming was leaving and twitched the corner of his mouth.
