Special Forces Survival in the Wild Continent

Chapter 58

The two walked in the snow for nearly three or four hours and finally arrived at the cave that Molus had mentioned.

Due to the low terrain of the cave, almost only the uppermost roof was exposed. If Morus hadn't been familiar with this place, he might have missed it.

Lu Kang looked at the temporary settlement in front of him that was almost covered by snow, and twitched the corners of his mouth. It really is a very big project.

The days in winter are always short, and the two of them took the time to clear the snowdrifts. Because there were not many tools around, the two of them could only find ready-made sticks and other things with their bare hands.

The cave is about 1.6 meters high. Although it was almost covered by the snow outside, after cleaning it, I was pleasantly surprised to find that there was not much snow accumulated in the cave, which may be due to the leeward wind of the cave. The snow didn't flow into the cave because of the strong wind, but a snow wall piled up on the surface of the cave.

The animal skins that Molus had piled up inside the cave were not as damp as the two of them had imagined due to the accumulation of snow. Although it was dry and cold, they were barely usable. As long as they lit a fire, they could be worn and kept warm.

The two of them cleaned the snow from the cave floor and started to prepare a fire. In the wild, especially in winter, lack of fire is the deadliest thing.

There are too few things that can be used to start a fire outside. Most of them are wet with snow. Even if the dry snow falls on it, it can barely be used as firewood after shaking it off. It couldn't be done at all, so Morus had to take out the fluffy grass that he had brought with him just in case.

The thick smoke from the grass made the whole cave full of gray-black gas, choking them so much that they couldn't bear it and ran out. After a while, some snakes, scorpions and mice that hibernated in the cave for the winter all ran out. , was stunned by Maurus' quick knocks one by one.

"Wow, what a surprise." Lu Kang said with a smile, his face was covered with black marks from the smoke.

Looking at Lu Kang's appearance, Morus couldn't help laughing. He stretched out his hand to wipe off the dirt on Lu Kang's face, only to realize that his hands were not clean. Instead, he wiped Lu Kang's face more like a big It's a cat.

Lu Kang indifferently wiped his face with the back of his hands, looked at the cave full of black smoke and asked, "Shall we go in?"

Molu paused, rushed in with a few wooden sticks in his hand, quickly added them to the fire frame, rushed out again, let out a sigh of relief, and said, "Once the grass is completely burned, the soot will naturally decrease. , wait until there is no more smoke before going in." Molus looked at the sky after finishing speaking, "It should be in time before it gets dark."

Molus took out the temporary dry food he found in the cave, broke off a piece of jerky and handed it to Lu Kang, "Haven't you eaten since morning?"

Lu Kang took it and chewed it a few mouthfuls. The air-dried meat was very sticky and tasteless. Lu Kang swallowed it, and took another handful of snow into his mouth. Shivering from the cold, he managed to taste some water.

Annoyance flashed in Maurus' eyes, he actually forgot to bring out the water from the two large water tanks in the stone house.

Lu Kang noticed Morus' gaze, saw what Morus was thinking, laughed, waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "Even if you take the water in the stone house, you won't be able to bring much, not to mention the temperature outside will soon drop." Freezing the water won't help."

"It would be much better if I go and get back the things that I temporarily put on Ida's side when it's late at night. We can boil snow water to drink." Molus pursed his lips and said.

"Okay." Lu Kang nodded.

On the other side, at the gate of the Dals tribe, twenty or so people who had gone out hunting with Molus and Lu Kang came back carrying the big snake of more than ten meters in a mighty manner.

"What? Morus and Lu Kang have left?!" Upon hearing the news, the people in the team exploded and asked, "What's going on?!"

The people in the tribe briefly explained, and most of the people in the team turned a little ugly when they heard it, and whispered among themselves, "No wonder it has been snowing for so long."

"Yes, yes, and Lu Kang also has such weird attack methods, it's too scary."

"That's right, that's right, I see him, he can probably kill people from a distance, did you see that thing directly pierced into the body of that big snake!"

"terrible……"

"Don't you see that Lu Kang is helping us? Even if his attack methods are weird, they are still used on prey!"

"Without Lu Kang, would you have killed the large anaconda so easily?" Someone questioned, "Can you come back unscathed now?"

"We should get them back!"

"Are you crazy?! Want to bring back that catastrophe?!" Immediately, different voices came out from the crowd, and the atmosphere became tense for a while.

Mang Mo glanced at the restlessness in the crowd, twitched the corner of his mouth and turned to leave.

"It seems that there is a group of people who are not so hopeless." Mangmo came back and said to Ida.

Ida looked over suspiciously, "What do you mean?"

"The hunters who went hunting with Molus and the others are back, and a small half of them believe in Lu Kang." Mangmo explained.

"It's only a half..." Ida curled her lips.

"Ida, you have to understand that to most people, Lu Kang is just a stranger, but Lisa is the person closest to the high priest." Mangmo looked at Ida helplessly, "But at least not everyone It's good news that everyone believed Lisa's side story."

"Do you think Morus and Lu Kang will return to the tribe?" Ida lowered her eyes a little desolately, looking down at her injured calf. There was Morus's herbal medicine on the wound, plus what was forced by Mang Mo later Rest and recover quickly.

Mangmo shook his head slightly. With Morus' character, he would never come back again. As for Lu Kang, Mangmo didn't know much about it, but I'm afraid he would follow Morus.

This answer was similar to Ida's. He pursed his lips and looked at Mangmo, "I want to be with them."

"I don't want to stay in this place anymore."

Mangmo fell silent, and after a long time he said, "It's winter now, leave the tribe and leave this house, the living conditions in the wild are unimaginably harsh, can you persevere?"

"I know, it's not that I haven't gone hunting in winter, remember?" Ida said, how could he not know about the cruelty of winter?But as long as he thought of his friends being kicked out of the tribe and struggling to survive in that environment, while he stayed in the house, he felt disgusted as if he had abandoned his companions.

Ida repeated, his head bowed and his fists clenched, "I feel like a deserter right now."

"You are not a deserter." Mangmo covered Ida's fist, sighed helplessly, and compromised, "If we can improve the situation of Molus and Lu Kang in the past..."

"Of course." Ida said without hesitation.
