Zhang Wenfeng was a little dazed. He had an illusion just now that he had pushed open the stone wall passage that almost sucked the blood from Xin Yue's body. Or maybe it was a coincidence that the blood of the fox demon was absorbed just in time to meet the conditions for opening the door, so he stretched out his hand and pressed on the stone wall. .
Seeing Xin Yue falling towards him, he hurriedly stretched out his free left hand to hold the fox girl's soft shoulders.
"Hurry through the door...pass the customs, time waits for no one..."
The fox girl was so anxious that she cried weakly.
She lost blood twice, and her body's essence and blood were depleted too much, and she couldn't raise her strength in a short period of time.
Zhang Wenfeng picked up the fox girl's legs, which would not recover for a while, and lifted her up horizontally. He placed the fragile woman who seemed to be weightless on the back of a donkey and lay down on it. He didn't look at the expression of the woman whose face was covered with dried blood. He walked into the darkness first. Go through the passage in the middle.
The donkey carried the fox girl on its back, thinking endlessly and harboring deep resentments.
"Master, you are not kind, why did you put her on my back? You carried her through the cave and walked quickly and steadily. If she falls off my back, who will it be? If everything goes wrong, I will It’s said that you, the temple master, weren’t there to help support you…”
Zhang Wenfeng turned a deaf ear. He was already used to the noise of a gibberish donkey. He just walked around with his big sleeves fluttering.
He cast a pale green flame to float in front of him, illuminating the deep passage.
The rugged area of the cave is uneven and there are many rocks and obstacles. The donkey chatters but walks steadily.
After turning two corners, I followed the viewer out of the cave. It was still dark outside, the sky was bright with stars, and in the distance were the dark rolling hills and shadows of trees. They were on a hillside overgrown with shrubs and weeds.
When we turned back, the cave had disappeared without a trace, and the donkey didn't make a fuss. It was a country donkey who had seen a lot now.
Zhang Wenfeng was not surprised, and stretched out his hand to help the poor fox girl off the donkey's back.
"This is the second level of the forbidden area. It seems to be a big place... Let's set off again after I have recovered a little from my breathing and can see the direction clearly at dawn."
Xin Yue raised her head and looked at the distant mountains and starry sky, her tone full of excitement that could not be concealed.
After narrowly escaping death, she finally entered the forbidden area that the ancestor of Nine Lives told her to enter, and was one step closer to the Fuyao fruit tree.
Zhang Wenfeng breathed the fresh air that was no different from the outside world, and the concentration of spiritual energy was almost the same. He looked around and said, "I'll bake some meat and cook some broth. Let's fill our stomachs first. Don't worry for a while. You are weak in energy and blood." Seriously, I have..."
His right hand suddenly stopped when he touched the black bag. Strangely, he couldn't sense the storage space of the bottle.
Xin Yuezheng was also hungry in her belly and weak in body, and needed to supplement her food. She was embarrassed to ask Guanzhu Zhang to do these chores in the kitchen, but she even struggled to walk. Hearing that Guanzhu Zhang was very considerate of her, he smiled on his face and wanted to take some food from the bracelet. She put away the demon pig's hind leg meat, but suddenly realized that she couldn't get it out.
The two looked at each other, they couldn't be so unlucky, their belongings were basically stored in the storage space.
Zhang Wenfeng tried to release the simplest green wood thorn, but it was like a stone sinking into the sea. He also tried other spells. His Yuan Qi flowed through the meridians in his body, but he couldn't cast it.
There is no need for spiritual consciousness. He can see the sea of consciousness internally. The scriptures on the ancient scrolls are shining with golden light, but they cannot be touched.
The donkey also tried for a while, but the two of them and the donkey finally had no choice but to accept the reality.
"It's forbidden in this place!"
Xin Yue was only wearing a long white dress, and her shoes were damaged while crossing the bridge. In order to cross the bridge as quickly as possible, she did not have time to replace them with new ones, so she sat down barefoot, hugged her knees and smiled bitterly: "The ancestor of Nine Lives did not mention this. Point, we can’t afford all the food and clothing expenses, we can’t even fly, and we don’t know how far is the ‘Ghost Valley’?”
Zhang Wenfeng was able to see clearly. He held the jujube sword hilt in his left hand and said comfortingly: "Now that I have come, I will make peace with it. Just treat it as a training on the road of spiritual practice." He turned to look at the donkey with its teeth and a strange smile. This guy had problems eating at any time.
He could solve it anywhere, but he was looking at their jokes and said: "You should be more tired, be more vigilant and keep vigil, and be careful not to let wild animals approach."
The donkey agreed wholeheartedly, shook his head and suggested: "Master, actually eating vegetarian grass leaves and stems is quite delicious for a change. Do you want to try it?"
Zhang Wenfeng smiled, raised his fist, and said one word: "Get out!"
The donkey ran to higher ground carelessly and shouted: "Master, please practice your oral virtues."
He was jumping around happily, and there were not many opportunities to teach the patron the principles he taught.
Nowadays, it is less likely to say vulgar and obscene words like "Donkey Day's".
Zhang Wenfeng ignored the donkey who didn't know the dangers of the world. He went back to clean up the donkey and punished it to use its hooves to copy scriptures on the dirt. He chose a slightly flat stone three feet away from Xin Yue and sat down on it. He meditated, adjusted his breath, and built up his energy.
In order to deal with the dangers that may be encountered after dawn.
At present, it seems that the fox girl's knowledge of the forbidden area is limited.
After resting for more than an hour, he heard the noisy chirping of birds on the branches of the mountain. Zhang Wenfeng opened his eyes and stood up.
The sky was already bright, and the early morning mist was no different from the outside world. He used to use his energy to evaporate the moisture and dew on his clothes and hair. He was stunned for a moment before he remembered that Yuan Qi could not be released outside, and he could use his inner breath to slowly dry his clothes.
, just not that fast.
He smiled at the fox girl who opened her eyes and looked at her. Seeing that her complexion had recovered well, he said, "You continue to adjust your breathing, and I'll go find some food."
The magic power of cultivation here cannot be used, so survival has become their top priority at the moment.
The fox girl nodded and said with a smile: "Thank you."
She subtly noticed that the other person's eyes were avoiding her. When Zhang Guanzhu turned around and left, she used her fingers to uncover the white skirt that was wet with dew and clung to her chest. There was a trace of embarrassment on her face. Then she looked at the white skirt covered with skin.
The dried blood stained her "flower" skirt, and she shook her head helplessly.
I'll find a water source later and have to wash it off. It's really ugly like this.
Zhang Wenfeng had not gone far when he saw a donkey coming from the foot of the mountain with a piece of green rhizome in its mouth.
The donkey ran forward like a treasure offering, put the rhizome into the hands of the viewer, and said with a smile: "I found it by the stream at the foot of the mountain. It has a sweet taste when eaten crispy. Can you try it? I saw a hare before.
I'm too lazy to catch the prey. If you don't roast it over a fire, you won't be able to eat it. You won't be able to take advantage of that fox."
It has always made a clear distinction between outsiders and friends.
You can give everything you have to the viewer.
Zhang Wenfeng wiped the rhizome with his sleeve and took a bite. It tasted like raw polenta. He smiled and said, "Let's go pick some more for breakfast. It tastes good."
He and the donkey are brothers, so how can he casually punish it for copying scriptures on the dirt?
The donkey had to run down the mountain. It was worried that the viewer would not be able to eat it, so it picked and picked again and again.
The grass and trees beside the stream are lush, and no one has probably been to this place. The rabbit squatted stupidly about ten feet away, watching a man and a donkey collecting crisp and tender roots with broad leaves peeled off, and did not know how to avoid it when he came closer.
Zhang Wenfeng picked up a pebble and smashed it with his wrist. "Bang", the rabbit fell into the grass and twitched its limbs.
The world is huge, and eating is the most important thing. It’s hard to join in some fun.
The donkey ran to pick up the rabbit. Watching the spectator pull out the wrist blade and quickly skin and disembowel the rabbit, the donkey asked curiously: "Viewer, are you planning to eat the rabbit alive?"
"Stupid, just think of a way to make a fire and roast it and eat it."
Zhang Wenfeng wrapped rabbit meat with wide leaves, folded a few hemp-like plants, peeled off long fibers and twisted them into ropes, bundled the collected roots, and hung the bundled rabbit meat on the back of the donkey one on the left and the other on the right.
If you want to eat meat, you can only make enough food and clothing yourself.
I found two dead trees and cut them into several pieces, took out the thin dead branches and velvet moss from a bird's nest, then chopped a wrist-thick bamboo, cut out a few sections to make water containers, the sun was rising a little high, and the
The donkey returns to the hillside.
He handed a piece of bamboo tube to Xin Yue who stood up.
"Where is the water source under the mountain?"
Xinyue took the bamboo tube, took a sip and asked with a smile.
Zhang Wenfeng pointed to the location of the stream, took off the wrist blade bound to his right wrist, and said, "You can use it for self-defense."
The woman was much worse off than he was. She had almost nothing except a dirty skirt and a jade hairpin in her hair. Her short blades and swords were all stored in her bracelets.
Xin Yue took the wrist blade and walked down the mountain impatiently. She was very used to walking on mountain roads barefoot.
Where had she worn shoes so long ago? She had never worn any clothes.
It was only after she was able to transform that she began to learn the rules of life. Now that she has returned to nature, she runs with her skirt flying, as light and enchanting as an elf.
Zhang Wenfeng withdrew his gaze and called the donkey to go under a nearby tree. The sun had already collected the dew. He untied the dead wood, bamboo tubes, bamboo slices, a bundle of roots, rabbit meat and other items from the donkey's back and put them aside.
With a few swings of his sword, he chopped up the dead wood into a chopping board, placed the thin dead branches and velvet moss on a rock under the sun to dry.
He spent some time making a fire bow out of bamboo slices and a few twisted strands of rope, and cut the pressure rod. In his previous life, he learned how to drill wood to make fire from a wild survival program on TV. The principles are easy to understand, and he can actually use the fire bow.
He came to drill the fire, made a busy appointment to carve the seeds, and changed several drill holes, but it took him a lot of effort to find the trick of rubbing the drill pipe at a constant speed to keep the drill pipe balanced.
Easier said than done, and he worked hard just for a bite of cooked food.
The donkey watched the viewer using a small broken bow to spin around on the wood. He was so busy that he was sweating. He felt some sympathy for the viewer and babbled.
"...Whether it's going to work or not, I haven't even seen a single one from Mars. I'm a bit doubtful. Otherwise, it's easier to just eat raw."
"Look at how big I am, I just eat raw food and chew hay every day."
"Master, let me tell you, only the raw ones are chewy. Didn't you eat a grass root as thick as a raw one before? It tasted very delicious. If you eat it a few times, you will like the feeling of eating it raw...
"
Zhang Wenfeng didn't want to talk to the talkative donkey, so he kept rubbing the drill pipe with his hands.
He felt that after returning home, it would be better to let the donkey use his hooves to copy scriptures and sharpen his character.
The palms of his hands were almost blistered, so he finally rubbed out the charcoal, ignited the dry moss, then carefully blew on the small dead branches, set up the dead trees, cracked firewood, and lit a bonfire.
"One Sword Dominates"
When Xin Yue washed her body, washed and dried her skirt, she walked up the hillside wearing it.
She was surprised to see Zhang Guanzhu eating barbecue and burning a fire under the shade of a tree.
"Come on, I've left half a roasted rabbit for you!"
Zhang Wenfeng greeted him with a smile and said, "I asked the donkey to go hunting. It's been almost half an hour, but he still hasn't come back?"
Use the polenta-like rhizomes as vegetables and eat them with roasted rabbit for a unique taste.
He planned to roast some more meat to make dry food and take it with him on the road.
It is still too troublesome to drill wood to make fire.
