Chapter 4: The True Color of Life and Death
The principle of drilling wood to make fire is really child's play in the eyes of modern people. It is something that everyone understands. Even if you ask some children who like to read books, they will understand that it is nothing more than friction to generate heat and eventually burn into fire.
But understanding is one thing, being able to do it is another.
Let me reiterate, Wu Ming is a young man who is a homebody. Although he is not a homebody, he still belongs to the kind of people who grew up in the city and come from modern society. Let alone making fire with wood, I am afraid that he has never even used a coal stove.
It was around four o'clock now. Wu Ming felt the temperature. It was around the end of summer. It was still a bit hot at this time. Depending on the situation, it would probably be dark around seven-thirty. In other words, he had almost three
Many hours go into preparing the shelter for the night, and building a fire is the top priority.
Wu Ming used some knowledge of wilderness survival, found some dry firewood, carved some dents on it with stones, and found some dry grass-like fire items, and then used a slender stick to make fire.
After rubbing against the firewood for only about ten minutes, his fingers were burning and painful. In the past, Wu Ming would naturally not have been able to continue, but it was different this time. In the wilderness, he was still in the wilderness.
In the wilderness where there are ferocious beasts, whether there is fire or not means whether he can survive. He wants to live. This great life has just begun, how could he die so silently?
Gritting his teeth, he kept rubbing for an hour, sweat dripping all over the floor, but he was careful not to drop a drop on the firewood, and the dents in the firewood were already scorched black, with smoke rising from time to time.
There were already blood blisters on his fingers, but he gritted his teeth and persisted, again and again, until about an hour, ten or twenty minutes later, a small spark loomed in the dent. Wu Ming was overjoyed, and carefully removed it.
The spark fell on the withered grass, and then he blew into it gently like the demonstration in wilderness survival. Slowly, a cloud of smoke rose up, choking Wu Ming and almost immediately coughing.
But he endured it forcefully, and when the withered grass burned and his hands began to feel hot, he placed the withered grass on the dry firewood that he had prepared, and immediately the dry firewood also started to burn.
Wu Ming's heart was filled with joy, but his hands were really painful. For a moment, he grinned and just complained.
It was already dusk at this time. Wu Ming looked at the sky, carefully placed the dry firewood on the fire, estimated the burning time, and then continued to prepare other things for the shelter. Firewood was definitely needed, the more the better, more
There are also food problems and drinking water problems, which are difficult to solve because they are difficult to find in this wilderness.
But Wu Ming was lucky. There were wild fruit trees not far from where he landed. Most of them he didn't recognize, but some of the fruits had traces of insect bites and bird pecks. They were non-toxic and edible. At the same time, they were not far away from him.
About four to five hundred meters away from the chosen shelter, there is a small stream flowing down from the hillside. It is very small and is probably formed by the melting of snow on the mountain. However, this solved his urgent need. The weather is still quite hot now.
He had sweated a lot while drilling wood to make a fire, so he drank a lot of water in front of this stream.
"We have food, water, and firewood. As for a place to sleep, we can barely hang it on a tree for a night. We still need... weapons..."
Wu Ming sat down in front of the fire and murmured as he ate the fruit. The fruit was actually not delicious and a bit astringent, but it could barely fill his stomach. After eating the fruit, Wu Ming looked at the sky and saw that it was already dark.
It was evening, and it seemed that the sun would set in about an hour. At this moment, a cool breeze was blowing, making it slightly cooler. He didn't stop for long, and just checked among the nearby trees. After checking for a while, he finally found his target.
It was a branch that was thick at the back and thin at the front. After Wu Ming climbed up the tree, he hung his whole body on the branch and finally shortened it. After that, Wu Ming used stones to cut the branch.
After making it sharp, he carefully roasted it with fire and carbonized it to increase its hardness. It was not until the sun had completely set that his wooden spear was finally completely finished.
When night falls completely, the surroundings are really dark, with only a glimmer of the moon in the sky, and the whole world seems to have nothing else but his pile of flames. Although there are faint sounds of insects around, this only adds to the gloom and terror.
, in Wu Ming's eyes, in the distance illuminated by the fire, whether it was stones, trees, or anything else, they all looked horribly distorted, as if there were countless monsters lurking in the darkness.
If an ordinary person was in such a situation, he would probably have a mental breakdown. Even if he didn't collapse, he would at least be nervous and would lose control completely before long. However, Wu Ming became more and more calm. He just sat on the fire with Changmao in his arms.
Beside the pile, there was someone eating fruits one by one. Although there was fear in his heart, he did not let it spread. He paid attention to his surroundings but did not appear to be afraid. He himself was surprised at his current state. This state had been in the past.
I have never experienced this in decades.
"Sure enough, people are forced to come out. If I hadn't been forced this time, I don't know that I would still have the potential to survive in the wilderness." Wu Ming smiled bitterly as if he was mocking himself, but he was enjoying the hardship.
But in fact, even he himself didn't realize that his potential for survival in the wilderness was not at all, but another, much more advanced thing, which was a kind of qualification.
About an hour or two later, Wu Ming was adding firewood and calculating the amount of firewood he would use for the night. After the calculation was completed, he planned to run to a tree next to the fire and relax for a while. Suddenly, he was here.
At that time, he heard the howling of wolves.
The moment he heard the howl of the wolf, Wu Ming stood on his head with all the hair on his body. He picked up the long hair and stood up violently. As if his body was faster than his brain could think, he ran towards the big tree next to him.
Going up, in less than ten seconds, he had already reached the top of the tree. He was motionless as he climbed on top, making no sound except his heartbeat.
(Wolf? There are wolves here?)
The fear in Wu Ming's heart was simply overflowing, but the more this happened, the calmer his mind became, which surprised him again and again. But now was not the time to think about this. He just held his breath and silently crawled on the ground.
There was no movement on the treetop. The location of the treetop was completely dark. With the fire below attracting attention, it was impossible to spot him even if he stood under the tree and looked up. However, Wu Ming remained silent on the tree.
Even if there were mosquito bites, they would not move at all. After an unknown period of time, a dark shadow of a creature appeared from the darkness.
Wu Ming didn't dare to look at this thing directly, he just looked at it with the corner of his eyes. He had previously checked on the ancient government network. People with level 2 gene locks and above will become sensitive to hostile eyes, and wild creatures will also
They also have this kind of wild intuition. If it is a monster, this intuition may even evolve into their innate skill. Wu Ming will never make a mistake in this kind of detail. He will only look at the incoming thing with his peripheral vision.
Soon, a blue-gray giant wolf stepped into the range of the fire. Judging from the visual inspection, it was a giant wolf that was more than three meters long including its tail. It looked like a calf. Its blue-gray fur was very rare.
, Wu Ming doesn’t know if the wolves in the prehistoric continent are like this, but at least it is impossible to exist in the earth world. Maybe it existed in ancient times, but it is almost impossible to exist now.
This giant wolf looked really scary, but what worried Wu Ming was that it was not a pack of wolves, but only this lone giant wolf. This was one, and the other was that this giant wolf had injuries.
, and it was seriously injured. There were bloodstains on its back, a whole piece of fur was lifted, and there was a big gash on its belly. Although it was already scarred, this big gash almost cut the belly into two pieces. It
How could he not even die from such a serious injury?
Finally, there is a large wound on the skull of this giant wolf, and even one eye is blind. It looks extremely scary. Bones can even be seen in the wound on the head. There is a thumb about the size of the skull on the skull.
The size of the hole seemed to be bitten on the head by another beast. Not only did it bite a hole through the bone, but even tore off a lot of skin on the head.
(This is a lone wolf. I don’t know if it is the product of the wolf pack’s destruction, or if the former wolf king was driven out of the wolf pack...)
Wu Ming thought in his mind. Although he was not an animal expert, he had watched many animal science and education films. It was also mentioned in novels and comics that lone wolves were the most dangerous wild wolves. Usually lone wolves were once the wolves of the pack.
The king, or the remaining wolves after the wolf pack was destroyed, no matter what kind, the lone wolf is full of violence and murderous intent. If an ordinary wolf pack encounters a rival beast that they think may be dangerous, they will usually retreat, but
Lone wolves are different. They lurk in the dark and fight to the death against their prey, which is the most dangerous thing.
Moreover, lone wolves are more cunning than wolves in the pack, because lone wolves are often injured, and they still have memories even after they are healed. Therefore, they are cunning and deadly, and are the most terrifying hunters. Moreover, they are often extremely patient.
You can stay up all day or even several days just for a little bit of food.
All this information flashed in Wu Ming's mind, and his face gradually turned livid. Next to the fire, the giant wolf looked at the fire with fear, and then it smelled on the ground, bit by bit.
, its figure gradually came towards the tree where Wu Ming was staying.
Wu Ming immediately looked at his fingers. Because he had dug wood to make fire, there were blood blisters on his fingers. One of the blood blisters had burst, and blood flowed out from it. Although the blood volume was not much, and
Scars have begun to form, but there is no doubt that it was the blood that exposed his location.
Gradually, the giant wolf got closer and closer to Wu Ming, and the more critical the situation became, the calmer Wu Ming became. He himself was surprised by this calmness, and even reached the level of ruthlessness. He watched the giant wolf approach coldly.
, his heart was filled with fear, but his eyes were full of murderous intent.
Finally, the giant wolf came under the tree. The moment the giant wolf raised its head upwards, Wu Ming actually jumped straight down from the treetop. He held the wooden spear in his hand, the tip of the spear facing directly...
It's the tooth hole on the giant wolf's head!
For an instant, the giant wolf's surprised eyes met Wu Ming's cold and murderous eyes. The hunter and the prey were confused with each other, and they could no longer tell who the other was.
