Chapter 694 Have You Ever Heard a Tiger Roar?
Gu Chaoxi rubbed his arm. He had been sleeping on the tree trunk last night and now his whole arm was numb.
It took her a while before her arm felt better.
What she saw last night needed to be verified, so she walked directly towards the cave without saying anything.
The bone rack that was thrown beside the cave after eating the rabbit meat is now nowhere to be found.
Looking further into the cave, the place where the fire was made yesterday was ravaged by something, and a long streak of black charcoal was left on the ground.
"Did something come here?" Zhang Qingya followed Gu Chaoxi and was stunned for a while before asking dryly.
No one answered, because Gu Chaoxi himself didn't know the answer to this question.
She turned and looked outside. The sky was bright and a new day had begun.
"We have to go find the spiritual vein."
The distant mountains are shrouded in mist, as if hiding some unspeakable secret.
There seemed to be some unknown creature moving among the lush vegetation, but it seemed to be there and not there, making people wonder if it was an illusion.
Pei Yan just took a look, turned around and left the cave.
There is no time to think now, they must first finish breakfast and fill their stomachs before continuing to search for things about this plane.
Finding the spiritual vein should not be an easy task.
"Ayan, where did you get the rabbit yesterday?"
Gu Chaoxi just remembered this question. He forgot to ask Pei Yan yesterday.
"I saw the rabbit nest when I was surveying the terrain. They rarely came out, so I caught them all. I don't know what happened today."
However, it seems that it is very easy to get wild rabbits and wild vegetables in the mountains. After all, no large birds have been encountered along the way.
She nodded and said nothing more, but raised her hand and tugged at the corner of Pei Yan's clothes.
Then he understood what she meant.
"Chaoxi and I will go find some food. You guys go find some branches to start a fire first."
Although it was already dawn and the sun was out, the temperature was not very high.
My body felt cold after sleeping all night last night and now I urgently need to warm up.
The two of them walked along the same path they took yesterday. The remaining few people looked at each other and silently began to pick up dead branches around them.
Wei Fengze was not in a hurry, but started to check around the cave.
Since the fire in the cave was lit by something, there must be a living creature. Since a living creature appears, there must be traces.
These things rarely appear during the day, so why do they appear at night?
So this is the reason why we can’t stay on the ground at night. If we don’t stay in a high place, we will easily be discovered by these things and lose our lives.
He walked along the edge of the cave until he almost reached the point where he could go no further.
The trees were getting closer and closer. This slope was not a simple slope and there was no way to climb it.
The only way is to grab the bottom of some trees and climb up like rock climbing, but this is really too difficult.
After walking around, Wei Fengze didn't see anything else except some wild vegetables and mushrooms.
He looked into the distance from the small platform and saw that the fog lingering among the mountains and forests had become thicker.
This doesn't seem quite right.
After a while, he slowly walked back to the other side of the cave. Fu Zhizhao and Zhang Qingya picked up some dry branches and were already figuring out how to make a fire.
Zhang Qingya cleaned the original scratch with a broom made of tree branches and leaves, and it didn't seem as obvious as it was in the morning.
"You're back? Did you find anything?" Zhang Qingya discovered it when he went out to observe just now, so she asked this now.
Wei Fengze took a look and didn't want to say anything at first, but when he thought that they were teammates now and were on the same boat, he finally opened his mouth to answer.
"Nothing too important has been discovered. These things probably won't appear randomly during the day, so it's hard to judge."
"However, the spiritual vein we are looking for is definitely not here. We should change the location tonight."
As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Zhizhao started the fire.
It took quite a bit of effort, and now my whole hand looks red.
Zhang Qingya hurriedly helped to put branches up, and took a few broken thick tree trunks to stack on top.
Gu Chaoxi and Pei Yan haven't come back yet, so we can't let the fire go out too quickly.
The two people on the other side found not only the rabbit but also the vole.
“The diversity on this mountain is really, really special.”
Gu Chaoxi sneered and shook the field mouse in his hand. It was considered a snack. He just wondered if there was anyone who didn't want to eat this thing.
But it has come to this, it’s good enough to have something to eat, so you should stop being so picky, right?
"Ayan, come and take a look." She suddenly saw something, lowered her head, squatted on the ground and looked carefully.
Pei Yan came over after hearing the sound, and saw what seemed to be footprints in front of where she was squatting, with four claws and the concave part in the middle looked like a pad of flesh stepping on it.
"Tiger?" It wouldn't be surprising to find a tiger in such a deep forest, right?
"Have you ever heard a tiger roar?"
She tilted her head and looked into the distance. She had no idea what was hidden in the dark forest.
Pei Yan shook his head.
Indeed, they had never heard any tiger roars, which meant that even if there were tigers, they had never appeared or roared at the time they were there.
Tigers living in the deep mountains and forests probably won't deliberately adjust their hunting times.
Pei Yan was very surprised when he caught rabbits here yesterday. These rabbits did not come out of their nests at all. Every one of them was dug out from a hole.
Why don't they run away when they know someone is trying to catch them?
Or is it more dangerous to run out than to stay in the cave?
Gu Chaoxi frowned, and no one knew what he was thinking for a moment. It took him a long time to stand up from the ground, supporting himself with his knees.
Regardless of whether there is a tiger or not, they have to go back to eat and then look for the spiritual vein.
It is not very convenient to find spiritual veins in such a large mountain.
However, the direction of the footprints did remind Gu Chaoxi.
If there really is such a wonderful place in the mountains, and it is full of spiritual energy, there must be many good things that will attract these animals over.
Then just look in this direction.
Thinking of this, she told Pei Yan her idea, and then the two of them walked back with the things in their hands.
I had already dealt with a rabbit yesterday, so today it was particularly easy to deal with.
Zhang Qingya was troubled by the field mouse and looked up at Gu Zhaoxi: "I have never eaten this before, I don't know how to make it."
"Just like we did with the rabbit yesterday, we can't be too particular about it now."
In the plane, it is normal for the quality of life to decline occasionally, but it has never been as bad as it is now, to the point where they even have to do it themselves.
From an angle where no one could see, Gu Chaoxi silently gave the sky a middle finger. The inner world was really trash.
