Crossing to Live in the Wilderness Plains

After A-Zhang and A-Li brought the food for A-ke, they went back to the entrance of the cave outside the small bamboo forest to defend. There was a tall acacia tree not far from the entrance of the cave. A-Li stood at the tallest root of the acacia tree. On the branches, the animal skin backpack behind him was full of arrows, and he held a wooden bow in his hand, and his eyes were fixed on the mouth of the cave illuminated by the fire.

A Zhang handed the food to A Ke, "Did something happen?"

Ake took it and first took a mouthful of bone broth to moisten his throat. His throat was already dry and thirsty when he stayed by the fire for a long time. Hearing A Zhang's question, Ake shook his head, "But I smelled a trace of blood before. The smell, it is not very clear that it is isolated by the fire, I don’t know if the Hyena dragons killed each other inside.”

"The hyena dragon has a strong sense of community, and there should be no such thing as cannibalism. Now I just hope that the tobacco can trap them." A Zhang picked up a tree trunk and threw it into the fire, and continued: " You go to rest first, let me take care of it here, I'm afraid I will be there for a whole night tonight."

Ake nodded, climbed the acacia tree where Ali was and began to enjoy his dinner.

A low and low roar came from the depths of the cave, and was drowned by the crackling fire, the wood was wet, and the black smoke half sank along the depth of the cave, half rose into the air, and disappeared. In the vast darkness.

The moonlight on the second day of the month was very bright, as if the entire Dora Plain was illuminated with a slightly dim street lamp, Aze climbed to the city wall, added some wood to the fire plate beside Chen Qi, and persuaded: "I'll just guard here by myself. You can go back to the watchtower and sleep for a while." The tiredness in Chen Qi's eyes could not be concealed, and Aze felt a little distressed.

Chen Qi grabbed Aze's slender fingers, sighed at them, and put them on his face, when the cold fingers touched the skin, Chen Qi couldn't help shivering, "It's okay, I'll be with you. keep."

"In case you fall ill again..."

Chen Qi smiled, pointed to the several thick animal skins under him, and pulled the two cloaks on his body. Except for his face, there was almost no exposed skin on his entire body. , In addition, there was a big fire plate burning beside him, but he came out after he was fully prepared. "I am fully prepared now, and I will definitely not make myself sick this time. And I drank a large bowl of **** soup when I came out just now, and now my body feels warm. If you don't believe me, reach in and touch it. "

Naturally, Aze wouldn't really reach out to confirm. Seeing that Chen Qi insisted on staying with him, he could only sigh, took his hand away from the other party's face, and helped Chen Qi pull the scarf up, then Most of his face was covered, leaving only a pair of beautiful black pupils.

"If you can't hold it any longer, you must go back to the watchtower, don't let me worry, okay?" Azer's tone softened and he asked inquiringly.

Chen Qi raised his eyebrows, "Okay."

Azer got the answer he wanted and went back under the fence, found a suitable distance and sat down cross-legged. Just now, he heard bursts of hissing noises from the cave. With his understanding of the Hyena dragon, they were not the same. It’s not so easy to be knocked down by tobacco. Although the Hyena dragons run rampant in this world by attacking in groups, they can completely surpass the power of the female and son in a single round of single attack. The mother Hyena dragon always gave him a strange feeling, and Aze was afraid of what would happen, so he didn't dare to be distracted at all.

In the second half of the night, Chen Qi couldn't hold it anymore, so he stood up and moved his body. Aze saw Chen Qi's movements and looked up slightly, and then heard Chen Qi's exclamation, and an arrow fell from the sky, straight fall on the fire.

A figure covered in dark red blood broke through the raging fire, stumbled to the side of the snowdrift, and rolled on the spot, using the coldness of the snow to burn the red and painful scales. A to cool down.

Aze picked up the firewood next to him and threw it into the cave, and then poured the melted bamboo oil down, and the fire that had been flushed out of a hole started to burn again.

The female hyena dragon stared at Aze in a haze, and stood up staggeringly after the temperature on her body dropped a little. .

Aze and the female hyena dragon opened a little distance, standing in a position enough to counterattack, the nails formed by the ten-fingered beast glowed coldly in the moonlight. Chen Qi clenched the bowstring nervously, and pulled out an arrow from the backpack behind him. The arrow had been wrapped with cloth in advance. Chen Qi slightly wet the arrow in the pottery plate with grease beside him. The fire was lit, and the rocket took the wind towards the mother Hyena dragon.

The female hyena dragon snorted lightly, turned her body slightly, and swung her tail directly to the arrow, the arrow broke off, and Chen Qi's second arrow came again, the mother hyena dragon roared, and ignored the arrows. Before bullying him, he planned to get rid of the female child not far away. The female hyena dragon opened its huge mouth, and there seemed to be vaguely shredded flesh and a few white hairs in the gap between the deep-cold fangs.

Aze hunched slightly, and when the female hyena dragon moved, he moved, and circled the female hyena dragon for half a circle, always keeping a safe distance. Chen Qi took advantage of this gap to shoot at the female Hyena Dragon with two flaming arrows. One of the arrows just inserted into the wound that had been scorched by the fire and exposed the flesh. The Female Hyena Dragon cried out in pain and looked at Chen Qi. His eyes were getting worse and worse, but he knew that if he didn't kill the female in front of him, he wouldn't be able to do anything to the person standing on the wall.

Hearing the voice of the Hyena Dragon, Carlo put Ayao on the slate bed, put several layers of thick animal skin cushions on him, and then instructed Ajing to take care of it, and the wooden bow and arrows that he took on the side came out.

As soon as Carlo went out, he saw Aze, who was chased by the mother Hyena dragon all over the yard, and quickly walked up to Chen Qi, "What's going on? Did the Hyena dragon run out?"

Chen Qi shook his head, "Only this one escaped, the others are still trapped in the cave." Chen Qi picked up the other arrow, dipped it in oil and set it on fire, and his movements became more and more proficient, "Carlo, you are here too. Help cover Aze, that hyena dragon seems to want to fight to the death."

When Carlo heard this, his face froze, and he quickly picked up his wooden bow and started to cover for Aze according to Chen Qi's appearance. I have to say that orcs are probably born with more developed motor nerves than Chen Qi. After a few arrows, Carlo got used to it. The speed of the female Hyena dragon, and almost every arrow with the fire aimed at the wound on the Hyena dragon, if the Hyena dragon hid quickly, I am afraid that every arrow Carlo will be able to hit the target.

In order not to be anesthetized by the effect of tobacco, the female hyena dragon can only use pain to dispel the sense of chaos. Later, in order to rush out of the fire, her scales were burned by the fire, and now the hyena dragon is not only covered with injuries , the scales on his body that had been incomparably strong and blocked all kinds of damage for it countless times have become fragile.

Carlo's arrows are much stronger than Chen Qi's. As long as the female hyena dragon can't escape, it will be firmly stabbed into its body, but after a while, the female hyena dragon's body is like half a hedgehog. The arrows were full of arrows, and the arrows were still burning with grease, and an unpleasant smell of burnt flesh permeated the yard.

The Mother Hyena Dragon didn't dare to ignore the two people on the wall who seemed to be weak in attack. It took a few steps back, intending to stay away from the two people's positions to give itself a little breathing time.

However, how could Aze get around to the back of the female hyena dragon quickly, as he wished, and take advantage of the moment when the mother hyena dragon's attention was attracted by the two people on the wall, he stepped forward quickly, and inserted his ten fingernails deeply. At the burnt wound on its tail, the Hyena Dragon turned around in pain and wanted to bite off the abominable orc who dared to sneak attack on it. Because its body was soft enough, Aze flexibly avoided it, and pulled out his right hand. , took a step forward and planned to point directly at a wound on the Hyena dragon's neck.

Just now, the Hyena Dragon stabilized his mind, and when Azer pulled his hand away, his strength weakened. As soon as the tail exerted force, the tip of the tail directly wrapped around Azer's hand that was still inserted into its tail wound, and then flicked, Azer Ze lost his center of gravity and fell to the ground by the Hyena Dragon, followed by the Hyena Dragon's front claws, and one claws attacked Aze's chest.

When Aze landed, he used his strength to roll on the ground, but after all, he was still a step slower. He couldn't dodge the right wrist, and was scratched by the hyena dragon. The animal skin on his wrist was scratched away, accompanied by blood fall to the ground.

"Aze."

"elder brother."

The two people on the fence were startled by this change and called out in unison. The wooden bow was drawn full again, and five or six arrows were shot towards the female Hyena dragon, separating it from Aze.

Looking at his bleeding right wrist, A Ze's eyes darkened, and the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned. After the arrow passed, he stepped forward again, and his sharp nails stabbed straight towards the Hyena Dragon.

Hyena Dragon did not expect that the beastman was injured, but his strength increased a lot. Instead of retreating, he advanced, and his tricks pointed directly to his vital parts.

Compared with the Hyena Dragon, the orcs are already petite. Aze is more flexible and faster than the Hyena Dragon. The Hyena Dragon defended the left and Azer has started to attack the right. Being trapped in the cave consumes a lot of energy. Its legs have been injured. When running, it has to use the power of its tail to move in coordination. Now that the tail has been injured by Aze, it feels heartbreaking every time it moves. pain. The female hyena dragon knew that she was afraid that she was going to explain it here today.

But how could it be reconciled? It was not reconciled when it was driven out of the Hyena dragon group, and it was not reconciled when it started to hunt those prey on the Dora Plain that could not fill its stomach at all. Now that it is getting closer to death, it is even more reconciled.

Obviously, as long as it survives this winter, it can go back to the forest.

why? Why are these prey things not conscious of being prey? Obviously just lie down and enjoy it for yourself?

The mother Hyena dragon's eyes were getting redder and redder, as if it was about to drip blood, and under the reflection of the moonlight, there was an enchanting feeling.

Azer didn't dare to be careless and increased the speed to the highest. Chen Qi's bow and arrow were not accurate enough for fear of accidentally hurting Azer, and he did not continue to cover, but Carlo seized the gap when Azer left with a single blow and fired arrows without interruption.

The battle seemed to last a long time, and it seemed to be over in the blink of an eye. Chen Qi couldn't see how the mother Hyena dragon fell.

Azer's sharp nails pierced the throat of the hyena dragon, and then dug out the scales on the hyena dragon's chest. With one claws, he took out a heart that was still beating slightly, and ze threw the heart into the fire next to him. , reached out and wiped the blood stained on his face, his eyes were flickered by the fire, and he could not see the other party's emotions at the moment.

Seeing that the Hyena Dragon finally fell, Chen Qi hurriedly got down from the fence, rushed to Aze in three or two steps, grabbed his wrist, and saw a scratch across half of his wrist. Fortunately, the wound was not deep, and it seemed Injuring the hand tendons and the like should not have any effect on the future except for the continuous bleeding.

"Aze, you and I will go back to the watchtower to treat the wound first. Let Carlo stare at the wall for a while in the cave." Chen Qiqi cut off a small piece of animal skin with a sword-horn knife and wrapped it around Aze's wound, pressing it hard Stop, don't let the blood continue to flow out.

A Ze looked at Chen Qi clutching his wrist and was a little lost. After Chen Qi shouted again, he came back to his senses. He bent down and kissed the corner of Chen Qi's lips, his eyebrows and eyes curved, "Okay."

Chen Qi helped Aze clean up the wound and then sutured it with catgut. After finishing the treatment, Aze continued to go back to the cave.

The entrance of the cave is not too big, but the fire piled by the entrance of the cave almost illuminates the entire yard as if it were daylight.

This night, except for the accident of the female Hyena dragon, the other Hyena dragons did not rush out of the cave again. In the second half of the night, everyone could take turns closing their eyes and raising their spirits.

The fire at the entrance of the cave burned until noon the next day. When the fire was about to go out, Ake came back and asked Chen Qi what to do next. After a few discussions, they decided to go in from the cave in the yard to see what was going on inside.

Because A Zhang's arm was injured, the task of going into the cave was handed over to A Ze and A Ke, while A Zhang and A Li continued to guard the entrance of the cave in the small bamboo forest, lest the Hyena Dragon still have the strength to escape.

Ake didn't know that the female Hyena dragon had rushed out of the cave last night, and when he saw the gray corpse in the yard, Ake's eyes darkened. He walked over and observed it, and finally pointed to the chest Looking at Aze from the place where a hole was dug out, "This hyena dragon..."

A Ze nodded, "It has eaten the giant wolf god." After a pause, he added, "There is more than one."

Akko was silent for a while, and didn't speak any more. Together with Azer, they removed the extinguished charcoal ashes. Both of them had thick wet cloth strips tied to their faces. Chen Qi and Carlo stood on the high fence. They are always on alert for the movement around the cave, and once a hyena dragon rushes out like yesterday, they should also cover the two females as soon as possible.

The two found the four male hyena dragons in the middle of the cave. The hyena dragon hadn't died yet, but it couldn't move. The size of the hole was not big enough for them to drag the hyena dragon out all at once, so the two had to drag them one by one. , as soon as they came out of the cave, they first cut off the throat of the hyena dragon and took out the heart. The hearts of the four male hyena dragons were not like the female hyena dragons with a hint of dark purple in their blood.

Ake also found the Maoxuexiong that was almost torn to pieces near the entrance of the small bamboo forest. The picture was too cruel. It was estimated that the Hyena Dragon disliked the Maoxuexiong's size and blocked the way, so he directly ate the other party. Ake disposes of the corpse of the fur snow bear, and then refills the cave with the others.

The corpse of the hyena dragon in the yard was set up on a fire and burned directly.

After the cave and the Hyena dragon were all dealt with, everyone moved back home. Chen Qi's house was fine. Because of the rice berry powder, the Hyena Dragon only destroyed the fire in the hall and furniture such as tables and chairs, and placed them in the corner. The large wooden box used to store potatoes and sweet potatoes was also destroyed, but there were not many remaining potatoes and sweet potatoes, so it was not a hindrance.

The damage to Ali's house was relatively serious. His house was the closest to the hole where the Hyena dragon came out, so the Hyena dragon was the first to enter Ali's house. Not to mention several large holes were smashed into the walls, even the kang bed and the stove. All collapsed in half.

Seeing this tragic situation, Chen Qi was silent, "How about you move to my place to live first for the rest of the winter?"

"No need." A-Zhang laughed and pointed to the room behind which was used for storage, "The Hyena Dragon didn't destroy the storage room, just move the things out of that room and tidy it up a bit to live in. , Ah Li and I will just move there." After speaking, he shook his head in distress, "But there is no fire pit in that room, so Ah Jing can only let him go back to your house first."

Chen Qi nodded clearly, "It's alright, just let Ajing stay at my place."

A Zhang patted Chen Qi on the shoulder, "Then leave it to you."

As a result, the next day, the utility room that A Zhang mentioned was a makeshift room, and he rebuilt a heated kang bed out. The width of the second room is estimated to be enough for three Chen Qi to roll on it.

Chen Qi: "..."

The most damaged by the Hyena Dragon were the pots and pans. Except for a few things in the storage room in Chen Qi's house, all the others were broken. When A Zhang sent his tribe to the Lion and Wolf Tribe, he gave it to him. The other party has a lot of pottery, but the pottery he has exchanged from Ali over the decades is too much to fit in several houses. At this moment, almost all the pottery is broken, and there are few that can be used. With a wave, he took Azer and Ake back to the tribe to carry pottery.

It took almost a week for the follow-up to deal with this attack. After all was done, Chen Qi felt that life had returned to normal. All the snow in the yard was cleared to the outside of the fence. In order to prevent the hyena dragon from being clever enough to use the fur snow bear to make a hole and sneak in, Chen Qi asked them to build the entire yard with pumice fruit mixed with sand, which is convenient for daily cleaning. The snow is also convenient for the first time to find cracks when they appear.

There was no snow until the pomegranate in the yard had solidified. After cleaning up the damage caused by the Hyena Dragon, the days seemed to return to the original calm. It seemed that the threat some time ago was just a dream.

Chen Qi sometimes sees A Ze staring at his wrist in a daze. Chen Qi is worried about whether his wrist will have any sequelae because he was scratched by the Hyena Dragon, but every time he asks A Ze, he just smiles. Said it was okay, Chen Qi had no choice but to try not to let him work, so as not to tear the wound.

A Ze's injury actually healed very quickly. Within two or three days, Chen Qi removed the sutured catgut and touched the skin near the wound with heartache. "It's a pity, there may be scars."

"pretty good."

"Where is it?" Chen Qi glared at him, obviously he didn't pay much attention to the injury.

A Ze was a little absent-minded, and touched the small circle of scars on his wrist that had almost healed. "If you don't look carefully at this thing, people think I have stretch marks."

Chen Qi was stunned, gently hugged Aze into his arms, kissed his eyebrows, and leaned into his ear half-jokingly, "Then do you want to try to give me a baby now?"

The tip of Aze's ears turned slightly red, and he pursed his lips, and it took a long time before he said in an inaudible voice, "Okay."
