Back to the Wilderness

The wind blown up by the rapid running slapped Ji Fuyun's face fiercely, making his tears dry before they shed.

He Zhongqing was already numb and let Ji Fuyun drag her away.

It was getting dark.

Ji Fuyun finally stopped after turning around several times, as if there was no oxygen in his lung lobes.He collapsed on the ground exhausted, breathing in the air with great gulps, his throat felt as uncomfortable as being burned.

Not seeing the saber-toothed tiger chasing after him, Ji Fuyun was slightly relieved, and then a great sadness surged up uncontrollably.Why didn't the saber-toothed tiger catch up?It doesn't matter or I'm full...

But at this moment, there was no time for him to be sad.

At night, it will be more dangerous.He had to find a safe place for them to spend the night.

After a while, Ji Fuyun struggled to get up, but his legs were weak and he fell down heavily.

Ji Fuyun smiled wryly.Of course, he would be amazed if he knew how long and how fast he had been running.

"Zhong Qing, Zhong Qing!" Ji Fuyun yelled a few times before He Zhongqing reacted a bit, tilted her head stiffly, without saying anything, her body fell down weakly, she also ran the same distance as Ji Fuyun, Even with Ji Fuyun's help, such a large amount of exercise is not acceptable to her body.

Ji Fuyun dragged his feet and crawled to He Zhongqing's side, and felt relieved when he saw that she was just fainted from exhaustion.

Seeing that the sky was getting darker and darker, Ji Fuyun couldn't rest anymore, so he beat his thigh hard, and suddenly the numb pain broke out like ten thousand ants piercing the bone.Ji Fuyun gasped and gritted his teeth to avoid screaming.

But anyway, the legs are conscious.The veins on Ji Fuyun's forehead popped up, and he stood up.

While still able to see clearly, Ji Fuyun started to shuttle around the edge of the forest with He Zhongqing on his back, looking for a place to live.

As if by God's blessing, Ji Fuyun finally found a dry pine tree hole before it was completely dark. It was not big, but it was not a problem to accommodate two people.After placing He Zhongqing inside, Ji Fuyun found some big fern leaves and a few thick branches around the tree hole.

Ji Fuyun held a relatively short but thick enough branch into the tree hole, inserted the rest of the branches vertically in the tree hole, and piled fern leaves on top of it, pretending to be a parasitic tree on a dead tree. plants on.Without looking carefully, it is impossible to find that the inside is empty.

After making rough arrangements, Ji Fuyun finally relaxed, suddenly felt drowsy, his upper and lower eyelids kept trembling, desperately trying to get together.After pinching his thigh fiercely, Ji Fuyun shivered and regained a little bit of energy.He can't fall asleep.

Ji Fuyun used the tree branch as a temporary defensive weapon, and placed it on the left hand side, and leaned his body against the tree wall so that his left ear could hear the movement outside clearly.

"Hmm..." He Zhongqing woke up faintly, and was stunned when she saw the cramped and dark space in front of her. She didn't cry until she felt Ji Fuyun was beside her, and threw herself into Ji Fuyun's arms.

Ji Fuyun hurriedly whispered: "Zhong Qing, don't cry, it will attract wild beasts."

Having just lost her father, she only had Ji Fuyun to rely on, and He Zhongqing obeyed his words, swallowing her crying forcefully.

Ji Fuyun patted He Zhongqing's back lightly, and comforted him: "Don't be afraid, Senior Brother Ji will protect you."

He Zhongqing nodded heavily, but her body couldn't stop shaking, tears streaming down her cheeks, soon wet Ji Fuyun's shoulders.

Ji Fuyun sighed, extremely bitter.Apart from patting He Zhongqing on the back like coaxing a child, comforting her, and reminding her that he is always there, Ji Fuyun can't do much.

He couldn't think about it himself, so how could he comfort He Zhongqing?

The night is silent, with occasional slight sounds.This is a good thing for Ji Fuyun, not hearing howls and wailings can always make people feel safe and secure.

Maybe it was tired from crying, or maybe it was instinctive self-protection, the shaking of He Zhongqing's shoulders became smaller and smaller until it became calm.she fell asleep.

Ji Fuyun carefully moved He Zhongqing, who was buried in his arms, unexpectedly, as soon as he moved, He Zhongqing whimpered in fear.Ji Fuyun had no choice but to let her continue to rely on him.

Ji Fuyun opened his eyes, as if he was concentrating on listening to the movement outside the tree hole, and seemed to be lost in thought.

In the early morning, the first ray of sunlight illuminated the dark tree hole through the dense fern leaves, Ji Fuyun's eyes were stung, and he couldn't help being in a trance, feeling illusory that everything was just a nightmare.

The sound of birds came from not far away, the sound was weird but melodious.

The first night in the other world was finally passed without any danger.

Seeing that He Zhongqing was sound asleep, Ji Fuyun moved her aside, while he planned to exercise outside the tree hole, his muscles were sore all over his body.

At this time, Ji Fuyun was still on high alert, he grasped the wooden stick tightly and then gently pushed aside the fern leaves, observing the situation outside through the gap with his right eye.

Facts have proved that his vigilance is not superfluous.

Ji Fuyun's hand stopped, a snake not as thick as his index finger coiled around the branch he planted in the ground.The green snake scales glow faintly under the sunlight, looking noble and beautiful.If it wasn't for this light, Ji Fuyun would not have been able to spot it.

The snake seemed to sense Ji Fuyun's presence, gracefully swinging its fingernail-sized triangular snake head, and spit out a scarlet snake letter towards the tree hole.A pair of vertical pupils are like mung beans, but full of boundless evil and gloom.

Ji Fuyun held his breath, fixed his eyes on the poisonous snake, and while leaning back, quietly raised the wooden stick in his right hand under the cover of fern leaves.

The little green snake wobbled its head uneasily, and quickly shot towards Ji Fuyun.

Ji Fuyun had already made preparations, and the wooden sticks slammed forward to meet them. One snake and one stick met in midair. The wooden sticks supported by manpower naturally had an advantage over the small poisonous snakes. Suddenly, the small snakes were ejected heavily and hit the ground superior.

Ji Fuyun hurriedly ran out in two or three steps, stepping on the poisonous snake's head recklessly.

The snake's body twisted crazily in an instant, and soon wrapped tightly around Ji Fuyun's ankle. Ji Fuyun resisted the discomfort in his heart, and his feet became more and more forceful, grinding hard on the ground.Within a short while, Ji Fuyun felt the body of the snake wrapping around his feet gradually loosen, and fell to the ground with a plop, and after shaking a few times, there was no more movement.

Ji Fuyun didn't dare to relax, so he spun around a few more times, and then retracted his foot when he saw that the snake had no reaction.

The snake's head had already been trampled to pieces by him.

Ji Fuyun took a few steps back, and exhaled with lingering fear.What he did just now was clearly thought and calculated, but now in retrospect, it looks more like a counterattack based on the instinct to survive.

People in desperation can always be stimulated to unlimited potential, hit the poisonous snake accurately, run quickly... These are things that Ji Fuyun can hardly do under normal circumstances.

Ji Fuyun observed the surrounding plants vigilantly, and after roughly confirming that there were no poisonous snakes, he took a few steps and wiped off the snake blood and snake flesh stained on the soles of his feet on a dewy plant.Just now the situation was urgent and there was no time to feel it. Only then did Ji Fuyun realize that his legs were as heavy as lead. Every step he took seemed to be pulling the muscles and nerves, and the pain went from his limbs to his heart.

This is a really bad thing.

Unable to relieve the pain, Ji Fuyun had no choice but to get used to it.

Ji Fuyun was worried about He Zhongqing and didn't dare to go too far from the tree hole, so he had to run back and forth at the hole, exercising his legs and arms.

The forest was very cool in the morning, and the wind was chilly, but big drops of sweat slipped from Ji Fuyun's veined forehead, and his face was as pale as paper.

It took a long time before Ji Fuyun stopped this masochistic exercise, walked to a fern plant he knew, gathered the dew on the leaves and drank it.Then I plucked a larger leaf from a nearby tree and collected a small handful of dew.

He dare not collect dew easily from plants he doesn't know, and he can't be sure whether they are poisonous or not.

After thinking about it, Ji Fuyun picked a few more leaves to cover the poisonous snake's body, he was afraid that He Zhongqing would be frightened.

After doing all this, Ji Fuyun entered the tree hole and woke up He Zhongqing.

He Zhongqing's eye sockets were red and swollen, and she couldn't help but want to cry when she woke up, but her eyes were astringent and dry, and she couldn't shed tears.

"Don't be sad, we have to live on." Ji Fuyun said, handing the dew to He Zhongqing.

He Zhongqing sniffled, lowered her eyes, honestly drank all the water, and said in a low voice, "Senior Brother Ji, I still have some snacks in my backpack."

Ji Fuyun couldn't help being happy when he heard the words, but he was worried that he couldn't find food.When he opened the backpack, he was a little disappointed. Except for the seeds left by the teacher and some little girls' things, there was only a bag of jellybeans and a bag of potato chips.

better than nothing.

Ji Fuyun didn't know how sensitive the sense of smell of prehistoric creatures was, and he was afraid that the smell of potato chips would attract wild animals or something.So he took apart the fudge and ate a little with He Zhongqing. Fortunately, the fudge contains sugar, which can satisfy hunger for a period of time.

"We can't stay here all the time." Ji Fuyun said, thinking of the poisonous snake he met in the morning, he added, "Besides, it's not safe here, we need to look around, maybe we can meet other people, I remember there were many When people come to this world, there must be some who survive, and if there are more people, it may be safer."

He Zhongqing couldn't help trembling when she heard the words, she was afraid!

"We don't have food and water, we can't survive here hiding here."

Ji Fuyun comforted him a few more words before He Zhongqing nodded and agreed to find a way out together.

He Zhongqing also ran more than ten kilometers yesterday, and her legs were already numb.Ji Fuyun had no choice but to look for life behind her back.On the way, He Zhongqing was trembling slightly, holding Ji Fuyun's arm tightly with both hands, not daring to let go.

Seeing her like this, Ji Fuyun was helpless, and even more distressed.

Keeping walking on the edge of the forest, Ji Fuyun will concentrate on observing the surrounding environment every step he takes, and any wind and grass will make him stop.

"Brother Fuyun, what do you think will happen to us?" He Zhongqing asked softly while lying on his back.

Ji Fuyun's eyes flickered for a moment, but the words he said lifted his spirits: "Don't worry, we will survive, nothing can stop you, Brother Fuyun."

Neither Ji Fuyun nor He Zhongqing noticed the change in address, from "Senior Brother Ji" at the beginning to "Brother Fuyun" just now, from friendship to intimacy.In a desperate situation, it is only natural for the two to depend on each other for life.

Ji Fuyun stopped suddenly, his eyes fixed on the front side.

He Zhongqing subconsciously hugged Ji Fuyun's neck tightly.

That black shadow was really not his illusion, there was a tall black bear more than ten meters away from him.

Ji Fuyun took a deep breath and almost ran away.However, the common sense of survival in the wild calmed him down, and he firmly controlled his feet. It was impossible for him to run past a bear with a speed of 50 kilometers per hour.

It seemed that the black bear was not in a state of hunger, and it did not show any urgency towards Ji Fuyun and the two.

Probably just accidentally entered this black bear's territory.Thinking about it, Ji Fuyun moved his feet slowly, facing the black bear and retreating backwards.

30 m.

Ji Fuyun was already 30 meters away from the black bear, and the black bear just looked at these two strange things motionlessly.Perhaps out of curiosity, the black bear thought about it and took a step forward.

This step shocked Ji Fuyun, and the alarm bells rang out.Not daring to continue to retreat, stood there confronting the black bear.

"Zhong Qing, give me your backpack." Ji Fuyun said softly.

He Zhongqing quickly unloaded the bag upon hearing the words, and handed it to Ji Fuyun.She was trembling violently in fear, but she clenched her teeth and did not make a sound.

Ji Fuyun opened the backpack and threw the three bags of seeds left by the teacher into the tree hole beside him, and he threw the bag containing potato chips at the black bear.

The black bear was attracted by the flying thing, and didn't notice that Ji Fuyun stepped back a few meters.

Flutter——The black bear's claws scratched through the backpack and the bag of potato chips, and a tempting scent came out.The tip of the black bear's nose twitched a few times, and quickly stuck out its tongue to lick it.

This lick was unbelievable, and opened the door to a new world for black bears. I didn't expect there to be such delicious things in this world!The black bear roared excitedly and took another big lick.

At this time, Ji Fuyun had retreated to a place more than 100 meters away from the black bear. Seeing that the black bear was addicted to the smell of potato chips, Ji Fuyun immediately ran quickly.

Carrying He Zhongqing on his back didn't affect Ji Fuyun's speed much. He didn't know that he still had the talent to be an athlete.

Taking a breath, Ji Fuyun hadn't had time to comfort He Zhongqing when he suddenly heard rustling sounds in the woods, as if some wild animal was coming through the bushes, which made him stiffen involuntarily.

Breathing becomes clear and audible.

"Little brother, don't be nervous."
