173 Wilderness Survival
"Is this your companion? Very cute."
When Qin Fei just woke up, his brain was confused and dizzy, and his whole body was in pain inside and out, especially his head.
He concluded he had a concussion.
The injuries on my body have been treated and I can feel that they are getting better.
However, the moment Qin Fei regained consciousness, he did not open his eyes rashly or act rashly. Instead, he continued to maintain a steady breathing and calmly sensed the surrounding environment.
He could feel a distinct breath moving not far away, as if fiddling with something, making noises from time to time.
He was rescued.
No, more than one person...
Qin Fei suddenly opened his eyes and met a pair of clear big eyes and a face that was getting closer and closer.
His breath was choked, and he instantly remembered the scene before he completely lost consciousness.
But this time, Qin Fei did not attack again, but looked at her silently, their eyes meeting.
“Ouch!”
Ye Zhizhi saw the man finally open his eyes and immediately let out a cry.
She knew that she was not mistaken. The human's breathing changed for a moment and he had woken up.
But Ye Zhizhi turned his head and looked for a moment. The human was still lying there motionless, and his breathing rate returned to that of a coma.
Ye Zhizhi thought he was hallucinating, so he moved over silently, squatted in front of the human, and stared at him silently.
Not long after, the person woke up.
When Lin Duoyu heard Ye Zhizhi's voice, he turned his head and saw her squatting in front of the man. He immediately walked over quickly and stood beside her, as if he was afraid that Ye Zhizhi would suffer a loss, holding a thin fork tightly in his hand.
Lin Yuyu's expression was stiff, his voice was thin, but his eyes were full of undisguised inquiry and vigilance. "Are you awake?"
Qin Fei sat up silently, trying not to shake his head. However, his face paled noticeably, but his expression remained unchanged. "You...you saved me? Thank you."
Qin Fei's hoarse voice rang out. As he spoke, he took in everything in the cave without making any expression.
After figuring out that there were only two little girls here, he tried his best to restrain his aura and appear weak and harmless.
"It was Ye Zi who saved you." Lin Yuyu's tone was dry, "Otherwise, you would have been eaten by the wild beasts in the jungle."
Qin Fei looked at the obviously special little girl squatting before him. Her name was Ye Zi? He thanked her again. "My name is Qin Fei. I'm from Kyoto and a retired soldier. I've formed a mercenary team with my former comrades, but we had an accident in the jungle."
Lin Duoyu saw him introduce himself. Whether it was to eliminate their vigilance or for other reasons, after knowing his basic information, especially his identity as a former soldier, she really let down her guard and even felt embarrassed for making groundless and malicious speculations about others.
She said weakly, "My name is Lin Duoyu."
"Miss Lin."
Perhaps feeling guilty, Lin Duoyu took the initiative and said, "I'll get you some water." Lin Duoyu was embarrassed to look at him because he was worried that this man was a bad person. On the other hand, he was afraid that his position in Ye Zi's heart would be threatened. Lin Duoyu was not very dedicated in taking care of him.
Qin Fei was indeed very thirsty, his lips were white and peeling, so he did not refuse: "Thank you for your help, Miss Lin."
Ye Zhizhi looked at the man who called himself Qin Fei without blinking. She observed from his subtle expression that he was not lying. No wonder she felt that his blood was not turbid. It turned out that he was a soldier.
She felt that the soldier uncle was still very honest and did not lie to them just because they were little girls. After all, even in this world, ordinary people trusted the soldier uncle from the bottom of their hearts. If the soldier uncle said that he was in active service, he would definitely be more trustworthy in Duoduo's heart.
Qin Fei's gaze fell on Ye Zhizhi, and then he noticed what she was holding in her hand, his dagger?
Ye Zhizhi lowered her head following his gaze, then hid the dagger behind her. She raised her head and looked back with confidence, with a clear expression in her eyes: I saved your life, and this is my reward.
Qin Fei: "..." Of course, he had no intention of taking it back. This was his little savior, just a dagger, but -
"I've used this dagger to beat up bad guys. I have a collection of quite a few knife products. If you like them, I'll give them to you when I have the chance." Qin Fei saw the smooth and shiny blade and naturally knew that she used this dagger to cut and process her prey.
But this dagger was in his hand, and he had used it to kill many criminals not long ago.
When Qin Fei thought of the people he met, his brows furrowed slightly and a serious look flashed in his eyes.
His mercenary team received a rare order to protect scientific researchers into the jungle, but unexpectedly they encountered extremely heinous S-class fugitives, one of whom was a fugitive who had escaped during a previous mission he was on.
I didn't expect to see it in the jungle.
They avoided the eyes and ears of the base and built an underground shelter at the intersection of the jungle base.
They lived in a hidden underground place, isolated from the smell of their bodies. If Qin Fei had not discovered some traces and found this secret base after tracking and investigating, it is unknown what would have become of them.
These fugitives had many lives on their hands and had committed numerous serious crimes. Their capture was always a matter of life or death, and they could be shot on the spot if necessary. Even though Qin Fei had retired, he couldn't just watch these fugitives slip away from under his nose. He had his companions escort the researchers away, and he followed them.
Who would have thought that these international criminals gathered together and secretly set up an underground base in this jungle.
Qin Fei originally planned to leave the jungle and report to his old leader so that he could wipe out the entire hideout, but he accidentally exposed his tracks because of the sudden interference from the animals in the jungle.
He thought he would die here, but what was even more surprising was that he was rescued by a little girl.
And still...
Qin Fei's expression was steady and calm, but he was very shocked inside.
For some reasons, he had a deep understanding of this jungle. He always knew that humans could not survive in this jungle for long. Not to mention the attacks that could happen at any time, no one could survive safely even in the annual bad weather.
But this little girl seems to have lived in the jungle for a long time...
Qin Fei glanced at her again, but of course he was very polite and didn't look at the place he shouldn't have looked at, that is, the clothes made of snake skin.
Ye Zhizhi had no idea what was going on in Qin Fei's mind beneath his calm expression. She gave him a look of contempt. Of course she knew that since this person was a good guy, those people must be bad guys. This was a weapon that had seen blood. She had washed and boiled it before using it to skin the prey.
Ye Zhizhi thought that the nights in the mountains were quite cold, and even with a tent, Xiao Duoduo would not be warm when sleeping at night. She also didn't like having humans in her grass nest.
Ye Zhizhi was not sure how long they would stay, so she thought of getting a piece of animal skin as a blanket for Duoduo. Her own dagger was dull, and this dagger was so sharp that it would naturally be more convenient for skinning.
However, this human said he would give her more knives!
Ye Zhizhi's eyes lit up, and she immediately let out a loud cry. She remembered this! No regrets allowed!
Lin Duoyu poured the boiled water into a wooden barrel, let it cool for a while, and then handed it to Qin Fei, saying softly, "Be careful, it's still a little hot."
After Qin Fei took it, he thanked him politely.
He drank the water in the wooden barrel in one breath, and his lips looked much better.
But his face was still very pale, not only because of excessive blood loss, but also because of his concussion.
Thinking of this, Qin Fei couldn't help but look at Ye Zhizhi again. He didn't hurt his head originally, but he was hit by this little girl and fainted.
However, he was the one who attacked first, and the little girl was just trying to protect herself, so he didn't hold any grudges.
He was already in a semi-comatose state at that time. When he sensed someone approaching, he thought it was the people chasing him and almost made a mistake.
Qin Fei drank some water and made sure that the surroundings were safe, so he lay down again and soon fell asleep.
He couldn't help but think that this little girl had a really strong grip, and she had given him a severe concussion.
If Ye Zhizhi knew what he was complaining about, she would definitely refute it seriously. She was holding back! If she had used a little more force, it would not only be a concussion, but a direct blow to his head.
At this time, Ye Zhizhi found this human much more pleasing to his eye, and he said that he would give him a lot of weapons.
This is a good person!
So Ye Zhizhi didn't disturb him and continued to sleep. In her opinion, if you are injured, you need to rest more.
Ye Zhizhi thought happily that the dagger she was given would definitely be better than the one she had. What would it be like? She was so excited!
When Qin Fei woke up again, it was almost dusk. He was awakened by the smell of fragrance. Before he opened his eyes, two voices came into his ears.
"Is it delicious?"
"Hmmmm...Ah~"
"I'll do it again next time I catch a pheasant."
The small cave was filled with a familiar aroma of meat, which made people drool.
Ye Zhizhi went outside for a walk and brought back a colorful big wild pheasant and a fat rabbit.
Lin Duoyu thought that eating barbecue every day was bad for his health in the long run, so he put his culinary skills to good use, spending the whole day trying to make different dishes with the limited seasonings and ingredients.
After Lin Duoyu's cooking skills were recognized, she became the chef for three meals a day, and Ye Zhizhi was responsible for hunting, cleaning and cutting food. Lin Duoyu was very interested in this every day. She firmly believed that the jungle was rich in resources and there must be a lot of edible things. So after confirming that some plants were non-toxic, she tried to make them into food to see if they would taste good.
Lin Duoyu studied hard and his cooking skills improved by leaps and bounds.
Today, Lin Duoyu used wild pheasants to make a pot of fragrant and non-greasy chicken soup. It was so sweet that Ye Zhizhi drank most of it in one gulp.
Of course, such a big pheasant can be used for two purposes. She put some plant seasonings into the whole chicken that had been boiled in soup, then wrapped it with broad leaves, covered it with a layer of mud, and then buried it in the fire and simmered it slowly.
The chicken that has been boiled in soup is tasteless. After stewing it for a while, the chicken will be more flavorful and not so tough.
After Ye Zhizhi finished drinking the soup, he continued to eat the stewed meat with big mouthfuls.
Among the belongings they picked up, there were many kitchen utensils such as pots and pans. The heroine and her group entered the jungle mainly with the intention of traveling and having fun. Even if they came to a place that was extremely dangerous for others, they would not treat themselves badly.
There were quite a few seasonings in the camp, and now they were all cheap for them.
More than ten pounds of rabbit meat is cut into pieces, put into the pot and cooked, and stewed with different seasonings until the soup becomes rich and thick. The overbearing and tempting aroma almost covers the aroma of chicken soup.
Ye Zhizhi poked a piece of meat and ate it with relish.
Xiaohua made the right decision to pick up Duoduo. In just a few days, Duoduo's cooking skills got better and better, and every day she ate the most delicious food she had ever eaten!
Duoduo is really amazing! If I have the chance in the future, I will take Duoduo to meet the wolves and let them taste some delicious food!
Lin Duoyu was extremely satisfied. Seeing Ye Zhizhi eating happily, she was happier than herself, and her appetite also increased a lot.
She ate well and slept well during this period, and her mood improved. She was no longer depressed all day long. Not only did her complexion improve a lot, but her cheeks also became plumper and she looked less thin.
Xiaohua was also fed from time to time, and the snake's body swayed with beauty.
Ye Zhizhi and Xiaohua, as the only two diners, were very supportive of Lin Yuyu's cooking skills and had to go out to digest their food after every meal.
Ye Zhizhi was so absorbed in the food that he didn't even notice the person lying in the distance had woken up. It was Xiaohua who first noticed and silently crawled over.
So when Qin Fei slowly sat up and leaned against the mountain wall, when he raised his eyes, he was face to face with a huge snake head.
"hiss--"
Xiaohua raised her head slightly, looking down at him with her tongue hissing.
Qin Fei's muscles tensed instantly, and his hand touched the straps between his thighs. Behind the giant python, the voices of two little girls rang out cheerfully.
Qin Fei stared at the giant python with his black eyes, trying to relax himself.
Ye Zhizhi noticed Xiaohua's movements. When she looked up, she saw a man and a snake confronting each other silently.
Ye Zhizhi thought of Xiaohua still muttering about wanting to eat this human, and then thought of this human being still very fragile, and not wanting to be scared to death, so he quickly stood up and walked over.
“Hiss!”
Xiaohua, don’t play!
Ye Zhizhi stood beside Xiaohua and taught her seriously that humans cannot be frightened, but they cannot be scared to death.
Xiaohua hissed, and the snake head dropped down, leaning against Ye Zhizhi's left side and sticking its head out, half-circling her.
While Ye Zhizhi was communicating with Xiaohua, he noticed the human sitting on the ground out of the corner of his eye. He wondered if he was scared to death.
Qin Fei stared at the man and the snake before him without blinking. No matter how turbulent his heart was, his face remained calm. He slowly removed his hand from his thigh and said calmly, "Is this your companion? Very cute."
Ye Zhizhi's eyes lit up instantly and he let out a loud roar.
You are a good human being! You have good taste!
