Chapter 6 Entering the Crescent Grassland

In the next two days, Zhang Tie didn't get anything. Whether it was on the small tree or in the Wild Wolf Valley, Zhang Tie's luck seemed to run out all of a sudden.

After rescuing Bond that day and killing five giant wolves and one wild wolf, Zhang Tie had not encountered a single wolf in the wild wolf valley for two consecutive days. Others, I have encountered wild boars, hares, pheasants, argali and pangolins, and once even encountered a fat water badger shaking from a place not far from Zhang Tie. Walking wobbly, but Zhang Tie didn't make a move. Now Zhang Tie's entire goal is on the less than half-ripe wild wolf seven-li fruit. With sufficient food preparations, Zhang Tie feels that these things are easy to eat. It doesn't matter how much you kill.

Zhang Tie would never kill for the sake of killing, even if killing these small animals has become a very simple matter for Zhang Tie now. But as my mother often told Zhang Tie, if it is not necessary, it is better for a person to do less crimes.

Killing wild wolves is to improve his own strength, but Zhang Tie really doesn't think it's necessary to kill these small animals that don't have much resistance (well, maybe that wild boar is a threat).

A few days ago, Zhang Tie killed a giant wolf. The best front and hind legs of that giant wolf were cut into strips by Zhang Tie using the method Tang De taught him, and set alight on a pile of half-dried and half-wet pine branches. It hung on the fire for an afternoon, and then Zhang Tie hung it at the opening of the cliff to let it dry naturally. Tang De said that under the premise that there is not enough salt and ingredients to marinate, use This method of smoking and burning is the way to preserve the fresh meat for the longest time. Zhang Tie tried it and found that it was true. The meat seems to have a special taste, and the taste is quite good, just like dried meat that has been processed, it can be eaten after cutting, so Zhang Tie's food is not lacking, Zhang Tie's lack is only wild wolves.

And after a month of trial, the range of activities of those trial teams who are getting more and more courageous in order to obtain food is also getting farther and farther away from the wild wolf castle. The living space of the wild wolf is being compressed step by step. The number of wolves is also decreasing, so it is becoming more and more difficult to hunt wild wolves at this time. From the beginning of the trial to the present, Zhang Tie estimates that at least more than 1,000 wild wolves have been killed in the valley. Even if there were enough wolves in the wild wolf valley before, it has become sparse at this time.

Because food was becoming more and more difficult to obtain, the second month of the survival trial was the most challenging. But for Barry and Pandora, Zhang Tie was not worried. Their food was enough for them to eat until the end of the trial.

Compared with food, Zhang Tie is more worried about Greese and the others now. Zhang Tie is worried that Grece and the others may trouble Barry and Pandora. is the most dangerous.

Bruce said he saw Gris fighting with the golden wolf and gained the upper hand, which made Zhang Tie guess that maybe that guy Gris had hidden some strength in school,

Or he has made some breakthroughs in this trial. In short, it is best to calculate Gris' current strength as a third-level fighter, and he can no longer look at him with the old eyes of a second-level soldier. It will also improve. No one will remain the same forever, even the three dog legs of Sharon, Zuhaier and Ganel next to Gris, Zhang Tie feels that if he hears that they ignited the sparks of the shrine during the trial one day, I will not be surprised at all.

Never imagine an enemy as good as you are, and never imagine an enemy as you've known them before. These are two of the most dangerous thoughts that can ever come to your head about enemies and opponents.

Just like me, do Gres and the others know that in one day, I will ignite the second point on my spine and become a third-level soldier!

So, after staying at the No. 2 foothold for another two days, when the latest fruit without leaks was about to mature in one day, Zhang Tie made an important decision—advance into the New Moon Grassland.

This morning, after the sun rose, Zhang Tie packed his bags, packed his equipment, and left the cave on the cliff.

Today's weather is very good, the sun is bright, and the sky is cloudless. Out of the caution of a lone traveler, Zhang Tie has already explored the way ahead yesterday afternoon, and in the Wild Wolf Valley and The border area at the junction of the Crescent Grassland has found a foothold for itself.

As we go forward, the terrain of the valley becomes wider and wider, the hills in the valley become more and more sparse, and the highlands in the valley become shorter and shorter, as if an invisible big hand combed the valley. The shrubs and shrubs are getting lower and fewer, but the herbaceous plants are full and more. At the back, the tall trees in the valley are basically gone, only a few shrubs are mixed in the large grasslands and hills. Among them, there are two tall mountain beams extending from the valley, reminding Zhang Tie that he is already within the scope of the Wild Wolf Valley at this moment, but the increasingly lower mountain beams are also reminding Zhang Tie that the road ahead Not far away, it is no longer within the scope of the Wild Wolf Valley.

This kind of open terrain is the most dangerous killer for all the rookies who are still in the combat stage, because in this kind of terrain, you basically have no way to avoid, no way to escape, and you can use your surroundings to The environmental factors that allow you to escape for your life and avoid danger are becoming less and less.

Because of this, the route chosen by Zhang Tie is basically advancing along the hillside to the southeast of the Wild Wolf Valley. The road on the hillside is not easy to walk. distance, it takes longer time and more physical strength on the hillside, but the terrain on the hillside allows people to detect danger in advance, and when encountering danger, there are more terrain factors that can be used, the simplest and most convenient What is reassuring is that when there are no tall trees in the valley, there are still some tall trees on the hillside. These tall trees are sometimes the best refuge for you to avoid some dangerous beasts.

Zhang Tie has practiced climbing trees a lot these days.

Along the way, Zhang Tie also encountered several caves of gold-eating pythons, but compared with those around Wild Wolf Castle, in terms of the distribution density of these caves of gold-eating pythons, the closer to the Crescent Grassland, the number of these caves becomes smaller. The fewer the gold-eating pythons have, the fewer the caves of the golden-eating pythons, which means that the deterrent aura of the golden-eating pythons to other beasts and various mutated creatures has weakened, and it also means that those dangerous creatures are gradually increasing. Not only dangerous creatures, but also the number of the most common wild wolves has gradually increased.

Grasslands are naturally hunting grounds for wolves!

Along the way, because of the good viewing angle on the hillside, Zhang Tie saw more wild wolves in the valley in the distance from the hillside. He found several wolves along the way, ranging from two or three wolves to nearly a dozen. This put Zhang Tie in a good mood, feeling that the first Wild Wolf Qili Fruit was already waving to him.

The power of a wild wolf! In his heart, Zhang Tie's saliva has flooded into a river.

"Help... ah..." Just as Zhang Tie trekked cautiously all morning, and walking less than two miles ahead was the foothold he chose, a gust of wind blowing from the direction of the New Moon Grassland swept the faint Unexpected cries for help and groans reached Zhang Tie's ears. At the beginning, Zhang Tie thought it was an illusion, because Zhang Tie walked alone all morning and didn't meet anyone, so how could he hear someone calling for help. After walking a few steps, the voice seemed to ring in Zhang Tie's ear again, which made Zhang Tie know that it was not an illusion, but real, and the voice seemed to be coming from in front of him.

"Help……"

Zhang Tie pulled out a spear from the pouch with his backhand, arched his body, walked lightly, and walked forward on tiptoe. The guy who called for help, when he saw the guy lying on the ground for the first time, Zhang Tie didn't go over, but squatted down, carefully observed the surroundings and found that there were no traps or ambushes, and after making sure that everything around him was in order. There was nothing abnormal, and that guy didn't look like he was pretending, Zhang Tie stood up and ran over.

Zhang Tiechang is so old, he has met many unlucky guys, but the one he met today is definitely the most unlucky one he has encountered in the past fifteen years, even that guy Doug may not have been so unlucky, this one People, how unlucky do you have to be to step on a beast trap placed at the foot of the mountain by that wicked guy in this valley of wild wolves where you can walk everywhere.

On the grass at the foot of the mountain in front, a guy dressed as a pioneer lay down on the ground, a washbasin-sized animal trap was biting the calf of the guy's left leg, and the ground and the guy's pants were everywhere. There were bloodstains all over, some of these bloodstains were from this unlucky guy, and some were from the two wolves who fell dead on the nearby grass.

When Zhang Tie walked over, that guy closed his eyes tightly, his face was as pale as paper, and his consciousness was almost on the verge of collapse, but he was still using his last strength to whisper "Help..." from time to time. There were intermittent groans.

Zhang Tie first checked the blood on the animal trap and the guy's injuries. The blood had darkened and solidified. It seemed that it had been a while, at least ten hours. The calf bone of this unfortunate guy was directly broken by the animal trap. The two rows of serrations on the clip firmly bit into the flesh of this guy's calf. Zhang Tie felt a little shocking after only one glance at the wound.

After looking at the wound on the man's body, Zhang Tie went to look at the corpses of the two dead wolves next to him. Zhang Tie just touched the hardness of the wolves' corpses with his hands, which proved what he just thought. This unlucky guy has really been lying here since last night.

In Zhang Tie's mind, he could even imagine what happened here last night—this guy who didn't know why he was still wandering in the Wild Wolf Valley at night passed by here, and accidentally stepped on this place that was hidden by a small camouflage. The beast trap, the beast trap put this guy down, this guy screamed loudly, and then attracted two wild wolves, the two wild wolves were killed by this guy, and then this guy was sleeping here and was caught by a beast After lying between them for a whole night, after such a torment, until now, it is very lucky for this guy not to die, but even if he does not die, he is almost on the verge of death now.

Zhang Tie looked at Siye, and there was no one in sight. The devil knew that there was a person lying on the ground here, and there were a few black spots flying in the sky. It was unknown whether it was an eagle or a vulture.

If he doesn't save him, this guy won't be able to survive tonight. Maybe he might get into the wolf's belly before dark. Along the way, Zhang Tie saw more than one wolf wandering around. With this guy's current state, as long as another wild wolf comes, he will be finished.

"Save... life..." The guy who was almost in a semi-conscious state called again in a low voice.

Zhang Tie scratched his head helplessly, and then looked at the guy's face in his twenties. Thinking of his mother crying while looking at the photo of his dead brother, Zhang Tie sighed helplessly, help him. ...

Untie the luggage and spear bag with the sleeping bag and various things on his back, put these things that affect his actions on the grass next to him, and then carefully put the guy on the ground while trying not to touch the wound on the guy's leg. Help him up from the ground, let his upper body stand upright, sit on the ground with his legs, and at the same time carefully remove the dagger from this guy's hand. If the guy with a dagger hits him randomly, then he will really be more unlucky than this guy.

After a night of pain and suffering, and a lot of blood loss, this guy's face was as white as paper, his lips were as dry and chapped as crops that hadn't been watered by rain for several years, and there were white cracks everywhere. Supporting him, he untied the kettle on his waist with one hand, then unscrewed the lid of the kettle, brought the aluminum kettle to the guy's mouth, and took a sip of water.

The water in the kettle is a high-quality mountain spring produced by Black Iron Castle. This water is the best water that Zhang Tiechang has ever drank. It is clear, sweet, and smooth. Been drinking this water for a few days.

Just drank a sip of water, less than ten seconds passed, this guy's vitality and instinct seemed to be awakened, and he began to murmur unconsciously "water...water...water...", Zhang Tie was careful He fed this guy and drank water, fearing that he would choke. After drinking a lot of mouthfuls, this guy's throat trembled, and the rhythm of drinking water began to increase. After drinking half a pot of water, Zhang Tie took the water bottle from this guy. He took it away from his lips, and then quietly waited for this guy to recover his physical strength and sanity.

After only a minute, the guy opened his eyes, glanced at Zhang Tie, and closed them again. After more than ten seconds, he opened them again, looked at Zhang Tie, and slowly said in a hoarse voice. Slowly spit out two words, "Thank you...".

Seeing that this guy's sanity recovered a bit and he understood what had happened, Zhang Tie finally breathed a sigh of relief. It would be easy to wake up, and besides being able to open his eyes, this guy's breathing The strength and the ups and downs between the chest and abdomen have also become a little bigger, and it seems that I can't die all at once.

Just as the teacher said, this water is indeed the source of life, its function is irreplaceable, and nothing can live without it.

Zhang Tie let this guy sit on his lap to let him recover a little bit of strength first.

Just two minutes later, the guy seemed to have recovered a bit.

"Is there any water..."

Zhang Tie handed over the kettle, and this guy was already able to drink water from the kettle with his own hands. While the guy was gulping water, Zhang Tie flicked the kettle on the guy's waist with his fingers, and the water in the kettle The empty sound made Zhang Tie speechless again—unlucky guy, he drank all the water he brought, stepped on a beast trap, and stayed up all night, no wonder he was so hungry and thirsty.
