117 Wilderness Survival
◎Ye Zhizhi experienced high-altitude flying again.◎
Ye Zhizhi relied on the dagger and a vine in his hand, and moved slowly and carefully, and unknowingly went down a long distance.
The giant beast on the top of the mountain noticed that the small prey was taking the flower away and was at a loss as to what to do. It howled in anger.
The ice on the cliff became thinner and thinner, and Ye Zhizhi became more cautious. Later, she scraped off the unstable ice layer on the surface first.
This drained her energy immensely, but fortunately, she was strong and had considerable stamina, otherwise she would have fallen. Despite this, she rested after every short climb and carefully located the next section of the route.
After crossing the high ice layer, the temperature rose noticeably, and the terrain became a series of rocky cliffs. Ye Zhizhi chose to walk through the cracks between the rocks, where she could occasionally step in with her hands and feet to steady her body.
Although the cliff was steep, she could always find a less flat place, and fortunately she was not afraid of heights.
Ye Zhizhi originally thought of climbing diagonally so that after the giant beast left, she could climb to other places on the top of the mountain as quickly as possible. She didn't know how high the cliff was, and climbing up would always take less time than climbing down, but unknowingly, she was climbing lower and lower.
At this time, the movement on the top of the mountain was almost inaudible, and the sound of the fierce wind was the only sound.
Ye Zhizhi sat on a huge protruding rock. He couldn't see the top of the rock above or the bottom of the rock below. There were rugged cliffs on both sides. The moonlight was blocked, leaving only layers of shadows, which was easy to cause an illusion.
She also felt a little tired, so she looked up at the night sky and decided to spend the second half of the night on this huge rock.
Ye Zhizhi tied a vine to the handle of the dagger and inserted it into the crevice to increase his safety index. Then he sat in the middle, leaning against the cliff, and closed his eyes to rest.
Being at a dangerous height, Ye Zhizhi felt very insecure, and the howling wind was very cold.
But still let yourself close your eyes and rest.
After a while, Ye Zhizhi opened her eyes. The sky was clear at this time and she could see clearly what was happening around her.
The giant beast on the top of the mountain seemed to have given up on leaving. Ye Zhizhi looked around and realized that it would be very dangerous whether he climbed up or continued to climb down.
Now she could clearly see the steep ice wall above her head and couldn't imagine how she had climbed here.
Perhaps the life-or-death situation sparked her rock climbing talent?
But now, Ye Zhizhi looked around again. The steep cliffs on both sides were made of huge stones. There was no place for her to stand, and the dagger could not be inserted.
Ye Zhizhi was thinking about the possibility that Yin Yi asked Xiaohua to save her.
Even a small flower can’t climb over this kind of cliff!
Is she going to be trapped here to death?
At this time, the sky was getting brighter. Ye Zhizhi was looking at the cliff and thinking about how to climb it. He keenly caught some movement in the sky.
She looked up instantly and found several particularly large birds flying in the sky.
Ye Zhizhi looked carefully and felt vaguely familiar.
The giant bird flying across the sky seemed to have discovered the living creature standing on the cliff, and it circled in the sky and came back.
Ye Zhizhi silently moved two steps to the left, pulled out the dagger from the cliff and put it on his waist.
As the huge creatures in the sky got closer, Ye Zhizhi recognized that these flying giant birds were the giant eagles that he had met once before.
The giant eagle flying towards her now seemed vaguely familiar. Ye Zhizhi felt that it was the giant eagle that had carried her into the air and almost kidnapped her.
Ye Zhizhi moved her hands and feet, trying to relax, pretending not to notice the giant eagle hovering nearby. She knew how to get down.
She felt that the giant eagle must have felt that her breath was somewhat familiar, perhaps recognizing her as the prey that escaped from its claws that year.
The giant eagle was already thinking about how to catch the prey that had hit it. The protruding part of the boulder was not wide, and the prey was standing close to the edge. If it dived sideways, one of its wings would be blocked by the cliff. So it dived head-on from a high place, and subconsciously slowed down when approaching the boulder to avoid hitting the cliff.
When the giant eagle's sharp claws were coming towards her, Ye Zhizhi dodged to the right, and just when she was stepping on the edge of the boulder, she suddenly jumped directly onto the giant eagle's sharp claws and hugged its thighs again, turning the passive position into the active one.
With the giant eagle's sharp claws, Ye Zhizhi's fragile little body would be broken directly by the claws. She jumped to this position on her own initiative, so the giant eagle's claws could not hook her.
Ye Zhizhi hugged him tightly.
The giant eagle's claws caught nothing, but it felt the prey, which was heavier than before, on its thigh, so it pulled itself up and flew high, directly away from the cliff.
This time the giant eagle went out to hunt. Ye Zhizhi was so small that he was not even big enough to feed a young eagle, so the giant eagle did not fly back to the nest.
Ye Zhizhi experienced high-altitude flying again.
This time she didn't dare let go easily. The giant eagle already knew of her presence. If she jumped down again, the giant eagle would turn around and hook her with its sharp claws, and she would be either dead or crippled.
The giant eagle chased the team flying forward.
Ye Zhizhi didn't know what would happen if the other giant eagles discovered her. She looked around, looking for a chance to survive.
At this time, the giant eagle flew over a deep valley, and soon a vast wasteland appeared, as if an animal world was being performed.
There are huge herds of buffalo, running herds of deer, scattered flocks of sheep in the Gobi Desert, and fat rabbits and silly roe deer that appear from time to time.
Many predators are hiding around, aiming at their prey and chasing them, while groups of hyenas are hiding in the dark, waiting to reap the benefits.
Ye Zhizhi is confident in her own strength. As long as she can land, she will be safe.
But the giant eagle carrying her was circling high in the sky.
Ye Zhizhi saw a huge river. The further down he went, the more turbulent the river became, and he could faintly hear a roar.
She lowered her head and looked at the deep water. She had to think of a way to make the giant eagle fly lower.
Before she could find an opportunity, a very beautiful deer was chased by a giant eagle and rushed towards the water in panic, which happened to be within the hunting range of the giant eagle.
Ye Zhizhi could vaguely sense the giant eagle's eagerness to move. Finally, it flew slightly higher and then swooped down.
The opportunity has come!
The giant eagle flew over the river in mid-air, lowering lower as it flew towards the deer.
Ye Zhizhi suddenly jumped down and dived into the water, splashing a lot of water.
When the giant eagle noticed that its prey was escaping, it gave up on the deer, circled back and looked at the calm water.
Ye Zhizhi swam underwater for a while, wanting to quietly surface to breathe fresh air and see if the giant eagle had left. However, as soon as she emerged, before she could even see clearly, the giant eagle's sharp claws swooped down on her.
The crazy danger signal made her dive into the water quickly, at an unprecedented speed of life and death.
Crash——
The giant eagle's sharp claws reached into the water, and the gaps between its claws hooked Ye Zhizhi's hair that was floating in the water, almost brushing against the top of her head.
Ye Zhizhi swam downstream along the current and quickly swam away for a distance.
She didn't expect that the giant eagle was still staring at her, which meant that she couldn't show up at all, let alone get ashore.
Although her breath-holding ability is now stronger than before, she cannot guarantee that the giant eagle will give up so quickly.
Ye Zhizhi didn't dare to swim shallow for a while and could only stay at the bottom of the water.
Thinking about the danger downstream, she was about to swim to the shore, but the water flow underground suddenly became turbulent, and Ye Zhizhi was swept downwards without noticing, and her forehead hit a rock below with a bang.
Ye Zhizhi felt dizzy and his limbs relaxed, causing him to be swept down by the increasingly turbulent water.
In just a moment, Ye Zhizhi was getting closer and closer to the waterfall.
She only had time to curl up and protect her head and neck before she rushed straight down.
Ye Zhizhi fell with the water flow and rushed directly into the pool. The huge impact made her consciousness, which had just recovered, go blank for a moment.
After a while, when she regained some consciousness, she was still worried about not coming out of the water, so she slowly paddled her hands and feet in the water, continued to float forward along the current, and rushed into the mountain stream.
The giant eagle didn't catch the scent of its prey for a long time. It hovered and flew low over the river for several circles, and then flew to the deep pool under the waterfall.
It was not until the giant eagle team had sounded the call to return to the nest that the giant eagle reluctantly flew away, admitting that its prey had escaped from its claws again.
***
At the edge of the dimly lit canyon, a gentle stream flows quietly in the low area.
Several squirrel-like small animals made rustling noises on the rocks. They jumped on the rocks by the water, and their round black eyes looked at the strange wolf cub lying motionless not far away, as if they were discussing her.
This young predator, emitting a powerful aura, was very different from the ones they had seen from afar before, but that aura instinctively made these small animals wary.
But at the same time, the little predator's side exuded a scent that tempted animals to come forward instinctively.
Upon closer sniff, she discovered that the scent was coming from something wrapped in a piece of snakeskin that she was holding tightly to her body. The opening of the snakeskin bag, which had been tied tightly, was now slightly open, revealing a few white petals, as if emitting an invisible fragrance that made the animals addicted.
Finally, the bravest squirrel approached cautiously, nervously observing the movements of the little predator.
There was still no movement until it got close to the bag. The squirrel stretched out its claws, hooked the snakeskin bag, and pulled it slightly outward.
At this moment, a small hand suddenly grabbed the sneaky paw.
The squirrel suddenly screamed in fear.
The other small animals were also frightened and fled in all directions, leaving their companions behind in a spineless manner.
Perhaps frightened by the sound, the little hand that had caught the squirrel loosened its grip, and the squirrel immediately ran away and disappeared in an instant.
After a long while, the cub lying on the ground seemed to finally calm down and began to move.
She slowly got up, sat on the rock, and touched her still dizzy forehead. The other side of her forehead was swollen, and the slightly cracked wound was whitened by the water.
It was so thrilling that Ye Zhizhi felt like she had a concussion.
She didn't dare shake her head, fearing that it would only add to the injury, so she slowly turned her head to get a clear view of the situation nearby.
Ye Zhizhi first made sure that there was no danger nearby before allowing himself to lie unconscious for a while.
She was awakened by something approaching and trying to steal her flowers. If she had not sensed the danger, she would have killed it.
Ye Zhizhi slowly lowered his head and checked the flowers in the snakeskin bag to make sure not even a petal had fallen off before continuing to tie it tightly.
This was something she had spent half her life to get, and she couldn't let a harmless little animal take advantage of it at the last moment. Otherwise, she would cry to death.
Ye Zhizhi paused for a moment before slowly getting up and preparing to find a safe place to wait for the wolf to come.
Although there was a mistake in the connection and she was unable to run towards Yin Yi, she believed that Yin Yi would definitely find her.
