Crossing to Live in the Wilderness Plains

Because he met Hyena Dragon at noon, Aze took a detour and stopped by a river in the evening. This is a tributary of the Sanchen River, the largest river on the Dora Plain, the Chishui River. A group of wildebeests are busy crossing the river.

Most of the places with water sources are gathering places for animals. Various predators are ambushing around to look for their own dinner. On the way, Azer grabbed two hares that suddenly rushed in front of them, but there was no need to hit the river. side animals ideas.

The two chose a place with a wide field of vision and no animals around the river to drink water. Azeri skinned the two rabbits and removed their internal organs. The internal organs had just been thrown into the river, and a group of fish quickly surrounded them and instantly smashed the internal organs and even the entrails. The **** fur is eaten clean. Just as he was about to go to the river and wash his face, Chen Qi, who was going to clean himself, stopped immediately and leaned beside Aze with lingering fears. Even the fish are so cruel, this world is really not friendly at all.

A Ze smiled and handed Chen Qi two green leaves like bananas, which were picked from the fig tree next to him while catching a rabbit. A Ze knew that males love cleanliness. His younger brother used to Every day I have to send myself to fetch water for him to wash and pick fig leaves. Although Ake is now sent by him every day, but also thanks to his brother, Aze knows that the males like to use figs to clean themselves, so I saw them on the road. Time to be ready.

"Don't be afraid, these fish don't dare to attack orcs." Of course, Aze didn't say that those fishes didn't dare to attack only the female orcs, and the males were not within their range.

Chen Qi sneered, not wanting to admit that he would be frightened by the fish, took the strange leaf that Aze handed over and asked, "What is this?"

"The leaves and fruit of the fig tree, the leaves can be used to clean the teeth, and the fruit can be used to clean the body," Azer explained.

The fig tree here is different from Chen Qi's perception. The reason why it is called a fig is because you can't tell whether it is a leaf or a fruit growing on this tree at any time. They are not in bloom, and the leaves will grow after falling off. It produces fruit that is exactly the same as the leaf, and when the fruit falls off, it will grow back to the same leaf.

Chen Qi picked up two leaves that looked a bit like bananas, and when he looked left and right, he couldn't see any fruit in one of them.

A Ze pointed to one of them and said, "Look here, the fruit with the darker stem in the middle is the fruit." After speaking, he stretched out **** and twisted it lightly, and a trace of green juice flowed out, "You rub it and see."

Chen Qi Wenyan rubbed his hands and saw the white foam in his hands visibly. It seemed that the fruit of this fig was the equivalent of soap.

"Walk along Chishui for another day and you will reach the tribe." A Ze said to Chen Qi as he twisted the rabbit's head and threw it into the river.

"Does your tribe depend on this river?"

"Well, the location of our tribe is not very good. One side is close to the mountain and the other side is the river. It is not as strong as the Lion and Wolf tribe, but there are many fig trees outside our tribe. Its smell can hide the breath of the orcs, so that the Hyena dragon can't find us."

Chen Qi wiped the foam on his face and rubbed his face. He leaned beside Aze and quickly washed his face, but the fish didn't come here, "Is this river called Chishui because of the color of the soil? ?"

"Well, the soil in this river can be burned. Every year we go to the gathering of the Lion and Wolf Tribe to exchange things with other tribes in clay pots. The flint and salt stones are exchanged."

"Can you burn Tao?" Chen Qi said in surprise, he thought the world would be more primitive.

A Ze nodded, the two rabbits had been dealt with, A Ze filled the water with milk fruit, to see that Chen Qi had almost cleaned up, and said to Chen Qi, "Let's go."

Seeing that the sun is about to disappear on the horizon, the plains of Dora will get dark very quickly without the sun. The night vision of orcs is not as good as that of other nocturnal predators on the plains. It is not wise to stay by the river for too long. choose.

The place A Ze chose to rest was an acacia tree not far from the river. Perhaps because it was close to the river, this acacia tree was much taller than anything he had seen before. Aze still tore off some semi-dried branches from the acacia tree, and Chen Qi didn't want to just stand on the side. He took the initiative to gather a little hay, cleared an open space, and then took out a lighter to make a fire.

Aze sprinkled the juice of two ghost needle flowers along the roots of the acacia tree. I didn't encounter the ghost needle tree all day today. Fortunately, I left two of them yesterday. When I looked back, I just saw that Chen Qi had put the fire on fire. After giving birth, he walked over and added the broken branches to the fire, "Chen Qi, your flint is so powerful, you can start a fire all at once."

Chen Qi looked at the lighter in his hand. It was silver-white metal with a wolf logo on it. The shape was very unique. Chen Qi did not smoke. This lighter should belong to the original owner of the jacket. Chen Qi handed the lighter to Aze, "Do you like it? Give it to you."

A Ze was stunned for a while, then waved his hand quickly and said, "I can't accept such a precious flint, Chen Qi, keep it for yourself." His two flints cost more than a dozen animal skins to exchange, Chen Qi's flint You can make a fire all at once, I'm afraid it is more expensive than your own.

Chen Qi grinned, not knowing how to explain to Aze that this thing is not a flint, but well, it is something that can make a fire anyway. "This is a gift for you. Not only did you save me, but you also helped me a lot along the way. In the future, I will trouble you to take care of me when I arrive in the tribe. It's just that a small flint is really not precious."

"gift?"

"Well, I'll teach you how to use it." Chen Qi put the lighter into A Ze's hand, held A Ze's strong and slender fingers, and adjusted the other's gestures, "Hold it like this, open the lid here, look, the fire It's easy to come out, isn't it? In the future, you won't have to worry about regenerating fire." Last night, I saw Azer use flint to make a fire, and it took a dozen hits before sparks came out.

Chen Qi let go of his hand, A Ze felt that the place touched by Chen Qi was hotter than the fire, "Thank you." A Ze whispered his thanks, feeling warm in his heart, how could the male in front of him be so good, like Put the lighter in his arms as carefully as a fragile treasure.

Chen Qi set up a shelf according to Aze's appearance last night, and put the water-filled rutabaga on it. The shell of the ruta has been burned to black. Kai misses the kettle at home that has never been used a few times since he bought it.

While Aze was roasting the rabbit, Chen Qi walked around the fire, but this time he didn't find any edible plants, mainly because Chen Qi himself didn't know much about plants.

The taste of rabbits is obviously better than that of warthogs, and Chen Qi ate one by himself this time.

The sky was completely dark, and the moon tonight was much dimmer than yesterday. After all, the two were by the river. After eating, Aze added some firewood to the fire and put his arms around Chen Qi on the acacia tree. Perhaps it was because Aze slept on the branch on the next floor tonight, Chen Qi's heart was a little more peaceful, and he had a good night's sleep.

When I woke up in the morning, the sun had just climbed out of the horizon. The wildebeests I saw yesterday were nowhere to be seen. Today, a group of stone antelopes crossed the river. A strong adult white-fronted tiger sprang from the grass. Pounced on the first male stone antelope to cross the Chishui River, the group of stone antelopes fell into a panic, and those who had not set foot on the shore changed directions and fled, until the tiger dragged the prey around and calmed down again.

Chen Qifeng was in a mess, why did tigers appear on the grassland?

"Are you awake?" Aze tied the unwanted internal organs and head with freshly peeled skins, and planned to throw them into the Chishui River. He wiped his bloodstained hands with acacia leaves and climbed to where Chen Qi was. on the branches.

"Well, you hunted for food so early?" Chen Qi looked at the prey that had been treated under the tree. After peeling it, he couldn't tell what species it was, but it looked a bit like a deer.

"When I woke up, I saw an elk nearby, so I caught it. Let's go to the river to wash up." A Ze bent down and said to Chen Qi. Chen Qi leaned on Aze's back familiarly.

The two still cleaned the prey at the place yesterday, and the water and milk fruit can no longer be roasted on the fire, so this time Chen Qi did not worry about whether the water was not boiled.

After cleaning up, the two returned to the acacia tree with the prey. The fire had been rekindled by Aze, and they only needed to put the prey directly on it and roast it.

After the two finished eating, there was still half a deer left for lunch at noon. A Ze buried the fire with soil, tied the luggage in front of him, carried Chen Qi on his back, and ran towards the tribe along the banks of the Chishui River.

As the sun rises, there are more and more animals on the river bank. Most of them cross the river from across the river. Chen Qi guessed that their migration route should be in the direction of the Chishui River. Because of the increase in the number of animals crossing the river, the predators on the Dora Plain gradually began to surround, and Azer had to move away from the river bank and make a detour.

After hurriedly disposing of the remaining venison at noon, the two continued their journey. Azer did not rest until the sun set. Chen Qizheng wanted to ask Azer if he didn't find a place to rest at night. Azer suddenly slowed down and turned around. Said to Chen Qi: "It's almost there."

Chen Qi looked forward and could vaguely see a rocky mountain.

"We're not resting in the wild tonight, we just hurried home, can you hold on?"

The corner of Chen Qi's mouth twitched. He has been lying on Azer's back. If he wants to ask, he is also asking if Azer can keep running with him on his back. "Well, I'm fine."

A Ze handed a green fruit to Chen Qi, "If you are hungry, you can eat this. This kind of fruit is not delicious. If you are not used to it, just bear with it. I will prepare the food when I go back." There are not many fruit plants. If it wasn't for the fear that Chen Qi would be hungry, Aze would not give Chen Qi such unpalatable fruit.

Chen Qi took the fruit and looked at it, but couldn't recognize what kind it was. Aze accelerated again, and Chen Qi kicked the fruit into the pocket of his coat and didn't eat it.
