Chapter 47: There is a Great Terror in the Darkness

 Within two hours of departure, Chen Chao was exhausted and panting. He was carrying a child with the two large rattan baskets on his back. What is so special is that he is really heavy...

    Would you like to pick up a shoulder?

    As soon as this idea came out, Chen Chao was speechless to himself. It seems that my thinking has been limited, and I am always thinking about how to upgrade manpower.

    But no matter how humans are, there are limits. At this time, you should use animal power!

    'Come on, get two hundred bisons for the boss of this system! 'Chen Chao roared boldly in his consciousness~~

    What followed was a familiar electronic sound, "Effective instructions, but within a radius of 30 miles, there is no bison. Moreover, bison is an entity, without generating a large number of progress points. Teleportation is not supported."

    Chen Chao lingering, he rested for a while, and planned to set off with the rattan basket on his back. His shoulders have been red and swollen by the straps of the two rattan baskets. I really want to go on like this. I don't know if I can walk back to the tribe.

    Just then, a burst of consciousness think kindly of electronic sounds, "straight-line distance from you to about thirty kilometers, a small group of wild horses. Map has been sent to you, if desired, can go on their own."

    About thirty kilometers ...

    by On foot, it takes about half a day. But after walking for two hundred kilometers for two or three days, it’s really appropriate to choose to catch wild horses~~~ In the

    spring of the coming year, we need animal power to transform paddy fields and carry heavy objects. Wild horses can be used without bison. Yes, the breeding industry must find a way to start!

    Without thinking, Chen Chao made up his mind in an instant. He first found a pile of leaves to cushion his shoulders, and then put on the rattan basket on his back to minimize the friction between the skin and the rattan basket.

    He looked at the map and found that the place where the wild horses are located is a small piece of grassland. The distance of 30 kilometers in a straight line requires two dense forests to reach it. If you bypass the two forests, you will have to walk about seventy. About kilometers.

    No way, Wangshan ran to death. It looks like it's not far, but if you really have to walk step by step with your feet...

    That's really a tragedy on earth.

    It sounds like it's just a matter of walking for an extra day or half a day, but the distance is not calculated in this way. Of course, Chen Chao doesn't want to take an extra step if he can take a short cut and walk straight, and the fiery wound on his shoulder is still reminding him.

    When he arrived at the first forest, Chen Chao looked up. Is it too late to

    regret now ... But if you regret now, you have to add about seven or eight kilometers to the distance of seventy kilometers...

    Regret There is no way to regret it. Chen Chao, I, even fell to death in this dark forest, was bitten to death by a beast, and never took a step back!

    Just look at this forest again. Although the outside is still bright during the day, the inside of the forest is like night. The crown is huge, the branches are staggered, and there is almost no gap between the leaves.

    From time to time, sparse sounds can be heard, like a giant python climbing a tree trunk. Occasionally, I can hear a "click", like a dead branch on the ground being crushed by something.

    'Hehe, can this be so rare that this system boss? Isn't it just darker? Lao Tzu has a golden finger bonus! 'Chen Chao swallowed and said that he was not afraid, that is impossible.

    Human beings always have a sense of fear for the unknown, especially the coming darkness. In the darkness, there is often great terror.

    What's more, it's a primitive jungle. When I think of the giant pythons that are thicker than people in the documentaries I watched before, and the poisonous snakes wandering around the ground, that slippery and cold feeling. There is no need to touch it, just look at it, and the fear hidden in the human genes will begin to grow wildly.

    What's more, there are many things that human beings don't know or understand are hiding, secretly peeping...

    human needs are the primary productivity and creativity.

    Chen Chao first tried to see if the golden finger could see it directly, but the Eye of God also declared it scrapped without light. He could only find out how to make a torch.

    There are two methods. One is to find a thick dead tree branch, split a cross-shaped gap at one end, put some twigs and hay inside, and apply a layer of lard to start the fire.

    The second is to tie the wood tightly with rag strips, and then pour enough fuel (kerosene, edible oil, torch oil, gasoline, etc.) on the sticks, and leave the sticks for a few hours to allow the fuel to dry before it can be ignited.

    Fearing that the first method burns too fast, Chen Chao decided to combine the two methods. After all, the resources that I carry with me now can fully satisfy this idea.

    The fat part of the bacon is cut out to extract oil, and then a small cabbage is sacrificed.

    The animal skin that originally covered the cabbage seedlings with soil was turned into a rag strip, which was wrapped around the dead branches. The oil is squeezed out and then poured on the branches, it should burn longer than a single method, after all, the animal skin itself has some grease.

    It should be possible. If not, you have to prepare a lot of wood and carry it with you, or go all the way to pick it up when the time comes. The torch must be maintained to be able to walk out of this dark forest.

    Seeing the torches gradually light up, Chen Chao breathed a sigh of relief, but just in case, he sacrificed one more cabbage seedling, so he made three torches in total.

    He packed his things, lit a torch, and inserted the two into the rattan basket where the little boy was staying. Chen Chao took the torch in one hand and the stone axe in the other, so he stepped into this dark forest.

    Listening to the sound of the torch burning and feeling the warmth it brings, Chen Chao felt a little relieved.

    I am not afraid if I can see it! What giant python viper, come and chop one!

    But it's better not to come...

    It's basically impossible for humans to kill the python with one hand, let alone the kind of thing that is swallowed by the python and then breaks open the python's stomach. Before the giant pythons eat you, they used their body to suffocate you, hang you, and smash your bones. The internal organs in the chest cavity, including the bones, were squeezed out. I want to fight back. Let's live the next life!

    After all, he only lights up an invincible IQ buff, and there is no invincible physical bonus for the time being...

    Chen Chao is holding a torch in one hand and a stone axe in the other carefully walking through every tree in the forest. He dare not touch it. The tree walks, who knows what's on the tree, the animals sit well in disguise.

    Chen Chao once saw a bird pretending to be a piece of rotten wood...

    it still looks alike. If it doesn't break its power, you won't be able to find it if you don't pay attention.

    While he was thinking about it, he heard a faint groan (sensitive word) from the rattan basket in his arms. Chen Chao thought that Shi Shi was making a murmur in his sleep, so he didn't pay attention.

    After a while, I heard "Ahhhhh" again.

    He looked down and surprised himself. A pair of huge eyes were staring at him closely, making "Ahhhhh" sounds from time to time.

    The original stone has been revived, struggles to lift a little hand, Chen Chao wants to touch the hands of the torch, but because they were hungry for too long, it is no effort, only slightly raised a little bit, put down

    Chen Chao didn't know what he was going to do, and now he couldn't get his hands free, so he lowered his head and rubbed the boy's forehead with his chin, trying to comfort him with his chin first.

    As a result, he forgot that he had never shaved since he came to Tianyuan tribe. The dense and messy beard rubbed against the little boy "quack" and laughed.

    Chen Chao was so scared that he quickly made a "hush" sound. The little boy also realized that the situation was wrong now, and quickly covered his mouth.

    "His", the torch burned for too long, and a drop of oil was transferred to Chen Chao's mouth, making him take a big breath of pain.

    The little boy in the rattan basket was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and puffed up his mouth, and gently blew into Chen Chao's hand, but he was hungry for too long, and after a few mouthfuls he looked a little wilted. Head little by little, as if going to faint again.

    "Pattern..." The countless birds around were frightened and flew around...

    Chen Chao's heart tightened, and he felt a heavy breathing sound behind him, similar to the sound made by a beast grinning and roaring, indirectly mixed with a low roar, and there was a fishy smell from time to time, and he secretly heard a bad sound in his heart!
