78 Wilderness Survival
◎Where on earth did Yinyi go?◎
Ye Zhizhi was going to go out alone. In addition to looking for herbs, she also had to look for prey. Injured animals needed to eat a lot of blood and flesh to recover quickly.
After Ye Zhizhi felt much better, he rejected the wolves and Xiaohua's idea of accompanying him and climbed out of the passage alone.
The rain outside was still pouring down, and the jungle was shrouded in mist and rain, looking mysterious and dangerous.
Ye Zhizhi looked around, then rushed into the rain and soon ran into the jungle.
But she didn't know that not long after she left, Yin Yi crawled out and quickly disappeared in the rain.
Ye Zhizhi was walking through the jungle in the rain. The big raindrops kept hitting her body, which made her feel uncomfortable. She found some broad leaves and tied them around her body, which finally blocked out some moisture.
She ran through the branches of the jungle in the heavy rain.
There was no more thunder and lightning, and the puddles on the ground were muddy and unclear in depth. Ye Zhizhi walked among the trees without worrying about being struck by lightning, but the trunks were too slippery and could easily cause him to slip.
It was raining heavily in the jungle and the light was dim.
Fortunately, they had been in this jungle many times and were familiar with the terrain.
Following her memory, Ye Zhizhi first collected and pulled out a lot of medicinal plants. She tried to see if she could grow them in the cave, or directly plant them near the forest outside the passage, so that Xiaohua would have them when she needed them.
She had also plucked a lot of leaves and thorns from the green thorns. She wanted to install some traps in the passage to prevent accidents before they happened. She would dismantle the traps before entering or exiting, and then find a way to block the width of the passage before leaving.
Ye Zhizhi was still trying to find prey, but she wandered around for a long time and still didn't see any prey. Seeing that the light in the jungle was getting dimmer, Ye Zhizhi turned back home.
On the way back, Ye Zhizhi was covered with plants, and with his blurred vision, at first glance he thought that the plants had become spirits and could walk. He vaguely saw a large group of plants moving in the heavy rain.
When Ye Zhizhi dragged the plants back to the nest, he found that Yin Yi was not there.
She hurriedly asked Erzong, Sanbai and the others questions.
But the wolves responded with a few howls, and then looked at Ye Zhizhi with their wolf eyes.
Ye Zhizhi only understood the meaning of leaving they expressed, and didn't know more.
Well, can't expect more.
Ye Zhizhi looked out with concern from time to time.
She didn't detect any trace of Yin Yi in the jungle, so it shouldn't be in the jungle, but that couldn't be ruled out as the reason why they didn't meet.
However, based on Ye Zhizhi's understanding of Yin Yi, if it went out because it was worried about her, it would definitely follow her and would not completely hide its presence, so she would be able to discover it quickly.
So, Yin Yi definitely didn't go out to find her this time.
Where did Yin Yi go?
Yin Yi, who was being missed by Ye Zhizhi, was now running in the mountains and forests. There were a bunch of messy things wrapped around his body, which were vines, and some things were wrapped in the vines, which were the packages they had thrown on the road before. He had found all of Ye Zhizhi's things.
Some small packages were washed away by the increasingly powerful current, and Yin Yi searched for them for a long time.
Yin Yi couldn't pick up all the things in his mouth, but he had seen many times the wolf girl use vines to wrap things and take them away more conveniently, and the scene had been deeply imprinted in his mind. So he imitated Ye Zhizhi's behavior and wrapped the package he picked up with vines.
If its claws were not flexible enough, it could also learn to tie knots like the wolf girl.
Now that its claws couldn't tie a knot, it bit the vine in its mouth and carried it all the way back.
Because of this, Yin Yi wasted a lot of time outside.
When I came back, a day and a night had passed.
Ye Zhizhi became more and more anxious as he waited. He was about to go out to look for the wolf, but before he entered the passage, he sensed Yin Yi's breath and the sound of him approaching.
She waited outside for a moment, then saw Yin Yi and the things he had dragged back. How could she not understand? Yin Yi had already remembered that she needed fur clothes to keep her warm in order to survive the winter, but the packages had been thrown on the road to lighten the burden.
Now, Yin Yi has gone to find it back.
Yin Yi lowered his head and licked Ye Zhizhi's head, shaking his wolf tail that was still dripping with water. He looked obviously very happy, and his animal eyes looked at Ye Zhizhi with a look that seemed to be asking for praise.
Ye Zhizhi's eyes turned red.
She raised her arms and hugged Yin Yi, speechless for a long time. She had never thought about looking for him back...
Yin Yi kept his head down in cooperation, thinking to himself that the wolf girl was just too clingy and loved to act coquettishly.
After the wolf girl let go, Yin Yi strolled leisurely, shook off his fur, and returned to his temporary nest.
Ye Zhizhi rubbed his eyes and followed him.
Now the only thing left is the wound on Yinyi's body that has not been treated with medicine.
Ye Zhizhi was deeply moved by what Yin Yi had done, and specially picked some more tender herbs and stuffed them into his mouth.
Yin Yi: "..." Even if the plant became more tender, it still tasted bitter in its mouth, and even tasted more bitter because it stuffed too much of it in.
Wolf girl's preference is a little bitter.
Ye Zhizhi applied medicinal herbs to all the wounds on Yin Yi's body to prevent it from moving. Then, he began to pack up the things Yin Yi brought back with a bright smile.
No matter how well Ye Zhizhi packed his things, the clothes and cloak inside were all wet after being soaked in water and rained on for so long. Ye Zhizhi took out the clothes one by one, spread them out, and placed them on the rocks to dry.
Life in the cave was leisurely.
Xiaohua stayed in the hot spring lake all day long, and Ye Zhizhi would go over to accompany her occasionally after he was done with his work.
Xiaohua was very happy every day when she saw the little cub come to her from time to time to talk and lie with her. Of course, if she could stay with her for a little longer, she would be more satisfied.
The wolves recovered quickly from their injuries.
Ye Zhizhi's worry about a predator attacking him did not happen.
The wolves and Xiaohua stayed away from each other, had no intersection with each other, and no conflicts or contradictions occurred.
The only problem at the moment is the lack of food.
Ye Zhizhi can nibble on the plants in the nest to satisfy his hunger, while the wolves and Xiaohua have to eat meat.
Ye Zhizhi went out more frequently. Her hard work paid off and she finally found the trace of her prey.
Ye Zhizhi assessed the opponent's strength and determined that she might not be able to defeat him alone. It didn't matter, she had help!
Ye Zhizhi noted the location of the prey.
The rainy season has a great feature: the prey stays in one place and doesn't move easily.
Then Ye Zhizhi went back and called Yin Yi, Er Zong and San Bai. This hunting plan was still made by her.
Heavy rain can easily cover the wolves' scent, allowing them to hide and ambush very close without being discovered. Ye Zhizhi acts as bait and takes the initiative to lure the prey out of the cave.
The beast was stunned for a moment when it noticed the cub that suddenly appeared in its cave. Although it was a small portion that it usually looked down upon, food was scarce in the rainy season, so it was better than nothing.
Therefore, when Ye Zhizhi attacked actively and then quickly escaped, the beast chased after him without thinking.
With this chase, the beast entered the wolf's attack range.
Yin Yi took the lead in attacking. He kicked off with his hind legs, jumped up in an instant, and pounced directly on him.
Then the second brown and third white cooperated to attack and assist.
Ye Zhizhi quickly turned around and ran back to join the interference.
In the end, the lone beast unfortunately died under their siege.
Yin Yi, Er Zong San Bai dragged the beast back into the cave and started eating it. Ye Zhizhi stood at the entrance of the cave and kept watch.
The prey was not small. Yin Yi and his friends ate as much as they could, and there was still a large half left.
No food could be wasted now, and the remaining food was dragged back to the cave by people.
Ye Zhizhi thought of Xiaohua. They lived in Xiaohua's nest, so they had to pay her for the accommodation, and they also had to share a share of the prey they hunted, right?
Ye Zhizhi discussed with Yin Yi, pointing at the largest piece of prey on Yin Yi's back, howling and hissing.
The howling sound expresses desire, and the hissing sound represents the little flower.
Ye Zhizhi felt that Yin Yi was smart enough to guess it, but it pretended not to understand and didn't give any response.
Along the way, Ye Zhizhi was alert to his surroundings and worried about how to get Yin Yi to give in.
Entering the entrance of the passage, Ye Zhizhi walked in front, and Yin Yi followed behind dragging the prey. There was a sound of water in the passage.
Xiaohua was soaking in the hot spring lake. Suddenly, her snake head stood up excitedly, her pupils became more pointed, and her scarlet tongue kept moving in and out.
Xiaohua smelled the blood of her prey and became excited.
Most of its body was out of the hot spring lake, and it crawled silently to the entrance of the passage, with saliva dripping continuously.
If Ye Zhizhi wasn't walking in front, Xiaohua might have already attacked.
But Xiaohua became aware of the cub's presence and regained a bit of sanity.
When Ye Zhizhi walked out of the passage and saw Xiaohua next to him, he greeted her happily with a hiss.
Did Xiaohua come specially to greet her? She's been able to climb this far, so it seems she's recovered well!
Xiaohua caught the cub's unique hissing sound, stepped back slightly, and hissed at Ye Zhizhi.
At this time, Yin Yi dragged out the prey, his wolf tail straightened, his muscles tensed, and his eyes looked at Xiaohua with great vigilance.
Yin Yi did not leave immediately. His attention was on the python, as if he was always on guard against it.
Behind them, Erzong and Sanbai came out with prey in their mouths.
Ye Zhizhi had already sensed Xiaohua's desire and eagerness for food, so he kept hissing to comfort her and asked her to wait a little longer.
She hadn't yet persuaded Yin Yi to share the prey, and if Yin Yi didn't agree, she couldn't do anything about it. But when she turned around, Yin Yi had already put down the prey and stepped away to the side.
Erzong and Sanbai entered the cave with meat in their mouths, intending to feed Xiaobai and Yinxiaohui.
Ye Zhizhi understood Yin Yi's meaning very well, and agreed to share the prey with Xiaohua!
Ye Zhizhi hissed loudly, and the snake head beside him suddenly rushed over. In a blink of an eye, its snake head had bitten the prey and swallowed it into its mouth bit by bit.
Yin Yi walked up to Ye Zhizhi and bit her clothes, pulling them back slightly. Ye Zhizhi took a few steps back, but did not leave. She knew what Yin Yi meant, but she believed Xiaohua would never hurt her.
Nearly half of the prey was swallowed by Xiaohua, and there was no very obvious arc in her stomach.
Although it wasn't as much as a whole head, it wasn't too small either, and at least it alleviated Xiaohua's hunger quite well. Its snake head gently rubbed Ye Zhizhi, then happily crawled back to the hot spring lake and immersed itself again in the water.
Xiaohua wanted to roll the cub into the lake to be with it, but snakes are used to being straight when digesting food, and they would feel uncomfortable if they rolled up their bodies, so she reluctantly let the cub return to the group first.
Ye Zhizhi glanced at the lake for a few times, and then went back to the cave with Yin.
Xiaobai and Yinxiaohui were eating in the other corner. Their stomachs were already very bulging, and after they finished eating, they were just full. Only Xiaohua and she were not full.
Ye Zhizhi had eaten all the dried meat she had dried on the way. The smoked meat, which was a large portion for her, was just a snack for the wolves.
Ye Zhizhi nibbled a few more leaves pitifully.
In this kind of weather, there is no hope of starting a fire. There is no dry firewood, let alone wet firewood, in this cave.
In such a deep den, it was difficult to notice the passage of time. Ye Zhizhi only felt the passage of time when he saw the wolves and Xiaohua becoming increasingly lively.
During this period, Ye Zhizhi and the wolf pack went out hunting several times, and each time they brought back a large portion of the spoils they brought back, they gave it to Xiaohua.
After Xiaohua realized that most of the food brought back was its, it no longer attempted to attack and snatch the food like it did the first time.
Instead, she waited for the wolves to bring the prey to her.
Xiaohua is in high spirits every day.
In the cognition of animals, food is the most important thing, but the little cub always lets its own kind give it most of the food, which shows that it is more important to the little cub than its own kind.
Although he still hated them for snatching the cubs from him, he allowed them to continue soaking in the hot springs because they were so obedient in offering him food.
