Rate the wilderness

The sky was gray and bright, and Chen had already packed his belongings—actually, there were not many of them, and was ready to go on the road.

He rolled up the old bear skin and carried it behind his back, just in time for a star cave resident to come out for convenience, saw him from a distance, and spat on the ground.Chen thinks it's good, we won't see each other in the future, and we will be enemies if we meet again.

Putting on a leather pocket, carrying a bear skin and a bow and arrow on his back, Chen left the star cave with a spear attached.

He walked a long way, and was about to enter the forest, when he looked back, at this time, the morning light broke out in the sky, the star cave was looming, and most of the people were still sleeping.Among those sleepless people, there is the only thing he cares about.

Goodbye, Si.

Goodbye, Star Cave.

Chen Yi walked into the forest without hesitation. He kept walking, and kept walking, from the moment the sky broke to the top of the sun.He walked slowly through the woodland where he played in his childhood, waded through the stream where people in Star Cave fished, walked to the bottom of a mountain, and skillfully drilled into a cave.

The bats in the cave screamed because someone broke in.

Chen spread the bear skin on the floor and sat on it. He was already sweating profusely, and his calves twitched slightly.He was tenacious for a badly wounded man, and he didn't fall unconscious on the march.

Lying on the bear skin, Chen still fell into a heavy sleep, too tired.

After an unknown amount of time, Chen woke up from the pain. Several places on his body were still in pain. When he got up, he saw his sore and bruised legs. After the beating and kicking, his feet were the most seriously injured.

Outside the cave, the sun was westward. To spend the night safely in the wild, Chen had to act.

He dragged his injured leg around to pick up dead branches and piled them up next to the fire pit. Then he took out a small wooden bow from his leather pocket, put the bowstring around one end of the small wooden stick for drilling fire, pulled the small wooden stick back and forth, rubbed it quickly, and drilled wood to make fire.

Sparks danced in the grass, Chen excitedly held the grass, put it to his lips and blew gently, smoke rose and the flame burned.Chen quickly put the grass into the fire pit, and added small dead branches and leaves on the grass.

Not long after, the dead branches and leaves "cracked" and burned, illuminating the dark cave.

There is fire!

Chen added a few large dead branches to the fire to provide materials for burning, and then he left the cave, carrying a bow and arrow, and walked towards the forest.

While picking dead branches, he found many squirrels nearby, and he was very hungry.

Chen hid behind a tree, quietly observing, and waited for a fat squirrel to come into range, and was still unaware, Chen drew the bow.Just hearing the arrow "swoosh" fly out, a squirrel fell from the tree with an arrow.

Chen picked up the squirrel, pulled out the arrow, and the dinner was settled.

He was not the panic-stricken child who left the star cave many years ago. As he grew older and suffered more hardships, he was already a seasoned and steady hunter.

On the fire pit, the singed squirrels were roasting with a slow fire. Chen patiently dragged branches to cover the hole.

As night fell, Chen bit the squirrel meat and remembered that someone once lived with him in this cave, ate food with him, and kept vigil together.Wanting to be accompanied by someone who is good to him is something that Chen can only hope for. He has no clan and is alone, so it is easy to have a strong clan.

He should be living well under the care of his tribe. He is the son of Xishan Wu and Zhu Maoya, and no one in the tribe would dare to bully him.Chen envied him very much, and was very grateful to him. It was the first time someone helped him when Da Bei and the others beat him up.

After dark, the sounds of the beasts in the forest are disturbing.Chen held a bow and a spear, wrapped in an old bear skin, and sat at the entrance of the cave to watch the night.

In the wild, if you want to survive, you must not fall asleep after dark.

That night, Chen's luck was very good. There were only two badgers wandering around the entrance of the cave, and Chen shot and killed one of them.

Keeping his eyes open, he persisted until dawn, and Chen felt that his whole body was frozen to the point of freezing.He went back to the fire pit to warm up, ate a few herb leaves, and fell asleep beside the fire with the bald bear fur.

The crooked branches at the entrance of the cave let the morning light bloom in the cave, which is the light of joy, which means that the lonely resident survived the night by luck.A hog badger lay silently in the cave with an arrow stuck in it.Although it has a strong fishy smell and is meaty, at least it can fill your stomach.

Chen fell asleep tiredly and comfortably. The first day after leaving the star cave passed, and it was not so miserable.

On the morning when Chen left, Li and Xi went to the forest to look for Chen, but the two of them did not dare to go too far, so they could only look nearby.They didn't find Chen, and Xihong returned to the star cave, listening to the people around him happily saying, "Dirty hair is finally gone this time."

"I'm afraid he will come back again."

"I'll be the first to kick him out when I come back!"

"Yes, you still have the face to come back, this traitor."

Everyone you say, I say, no one cares whether Chen will die outside or encounter wild beasts.

Xi walked to the place where Chen usually slept, sat on an empty stone, and cried for a long time alone.The raccoon can only sit with her, how long she cries, how long he stays with her.

"After my mother passed away, we were still young, and sometimes we would go hungry, but if Chen had a bite to eat, he would give it to me." Xi's tears dripped down, her eyes were red from crying, she raised her finger and pointed at the people on the upper floor. , said angrily: "They all say Chen is bad, Chen is the best person, they are the bad guys! They always bully Chen and drive Chen away!"

Li whispered comfortingly: "Xi, he will come back, don't cry." Thinking that Chen will come back is probably the guess of most people.Living alone in the wild is absolutely fatal.Although he was bullied in the star cave, he could at least survive.

"Woooo...he won't come back. His injuries are still not healed, he was forced to leave, and he won't come back." Xi cried even harder, probably because he remembered that Chen had left once when he was a child. The second time, he was carried back by a hunting spear, and he was bitten by a leopard in the abdomen and almost died.

Mom is dead, and Spear is dead, and Chen won't be coming back.

The raccoon patted Xi's shoulder, and said softly: "Let's look for it again, I will call someone to help, and we will look for it together..." He remembered that Chen still had a friend who could be regarded as a friend—Pang Mu, maybe Fat Mu Wood is willing to go out with him to find.

Xi hugged the raccoon, crying heartbroken.

However, when the raccoon approached Fat Mu and explained that he wanted to find Chen, Fat Mu panicked and not only refused, but also told the raccoon not to look for him again.

"He is a star cave traitor, if you still want to find him, they will drive you away." Fat Wood whispered, with a panicked expression.

At this time, the young and energetic Li, because of his close relationship with Xi, he believes that Chen is definitely not a bad person, and he doesn't care what outsiders say.However, almost all the people in the star cave dislike Chen so much, he can only pay more attention to the surroundings when hunting in groups, hoping to find Chen's figure.

But it is more likely that Chen has no bones left and was attacked and devoured by wild beasts.

Chen lived in the Flying Squirrel Cave for three days, sleeping during the day and keeping watch at night.He set a trap at the entrance of the cave and spread grass on it for self-protection.One night, this trap fell into a leopard cat, which barked most of the night.It was dark at night and it was not safe outside. After dawn, Chen took a spear to stab it to death, only to find that it had escaped.

During these three days, Chen was used to heal his wounds, it was not easy to hunt for wounds, and there was not enough food, Chen, who was already thin, was so thin that his cheeks were sunken.But even so, the bruises on his body gradually disappeared, his legs were no longer swollen, and his mobility recovered.

Chen packed his bags again, he was going to leave the territory of the Star Cave Man, it was not safe to stay here.If he encounters the group of enemies in the star cave alone, he will die.They didn't want to kill him before, and they were concerned about the rule that the same tribe should not kill each other, but now, there is no rule to protect Chen's life.

On the early morning of the fourth day, Chen walked out of the hunting ground of the Star Cave Man and entered the shore of the White Lake.

He knew that there was a friendly tribe in White Lake. They lived in the earth caves they dug and hunted deer for a living.Chen had met them a few times before, and they didn't clash with each other, and they didn't know how to bow and spear each other.

Will any tribe accept me?Chen thought.

No, I am a ghost in the population of the star cave, or a person who was expelled by the original tribe.

Chen walked through the White Lake. From a distance, he saw big tigers and wolves. Their figures are not uncommon in the White Lake. He also saw the footprints of wild boars and leopards.Chen continued to move forward, he realized that he had to continue going west to avoid the beasts, and unknowingly, he entered the territory of the cavemen in Xishan.

He walked from early morning to noon, he was very tired, hungry and thirsty, and his pace was slow.He climbed up a mound, sat on the mound to rest, and drank water.The field of view here is good, and he can see all around at a glance. Whether it is an enemy or a beast approaching, he can quickly find it.

Fill the water on an empty stomach, and drink the water in the bamboo tube, and the hunger is relieved.What worries Chen the most at this time is not food, but a place to sleep at night. He needs to find a cave suitable for hiding before dark, but he is not familiar with the forest to the west of Sunset Forest.

Chen leaned against the tree trunk, the midday sun made him a little warm, there was a river under the hill, and there were deer grazing and drinking water, everything seemed not so bad.He can live alone, as long as his body is restored to health, he can hunt, and he can also deal with beasts and enemies.

The herd of deer by the river scattered in all directions. Chen noticed two hunters appearing at a relatively close distance. Chen recognized one of them who was often by Yi's side. He was tall and thin.With his luggage on his back, Chen stood up alertly and left the mound.He didn't know if these Xishan Cavemen would attack him when Yi was not around.

The tall and lanky hunter found Chen, he was waving his hands and muttering something, he seemed very excited.Chen ran uneasy into the forest, he was not sure of the other party's intentions, he was rarely treated with kindness by others, on the contrary he was often hurt by others' malice.

Chen ran away, and the other party was chasing after him. Chen hid in the bushes in a panic, hiding his trace behind the dense leaves and the calls of birds and animals.

"Hey, what are you running? Don't run!"

Changjiao also caught up to a certain distance and stopped. The person in front had disappeared into the bushes, and he felt a little helpless.

Mo followed closely, with a little excitement on his face, he asked, "Yi, are we going to arrest him?"

"Why arrest him? Forget it." Changjiao Yixiang was probably regarded as an enemy plotting evil, and chased him too enthusiastically, scaring him away.

"Aren't you caught?" Mo asked.

Changjiao also turned around and left, saying, "Go, go back and tell Yi!"

If Yi knew that the star cave man who rescued him was on their territory, he would be very happy.

The author has something to say: Director: In the next chapter, Xiao Chenchen will live in Xishan Cave.

Chen: Probably no one is willing to take me in.

Yi: I had a hard time finding you.

Changjiaoyi: I'm sorry, I chased him too enthusiastically and scared him away.
