Chapter 58 Feeding
Locke, who was only wearing broken clothes and half a piece of turf, was awakened in the middle of the night. When he woke up, he found that Angelina was holding Locke tightly like an octopus. Locke was not polite at all, holding the greasy ball of meat with both hands, and Angelina's clothes were deformed by him.
Well, Locke, who woke up from the cold, pulled out his hand awkwardly. Half of the turf was woven half. Before falling asleep, Locke covered Angelina mostly. He only covered one corner. No wonder he was woken up by the cold after the bonfire was extinguished. After sucking, Locke quietly opened Angelina's limbs, wrapped her torn clothes, and hurried to the extinguished fire. There was no spark in the fire, only a pile of burning black charcoal. This was not difficult for Locke to cover some flammable dead branches into the pile of charcoal. When he blew hard, the charcoal emitted a red light. With a "swish", the dead branches in the charcoal slowly ignited the flame. Locke protected the flame and added some new dead grass, leaves, and the flame slowly grew into flames. Finally, a few branches were added, and the warm bonfire appeared.
Locke, who rekindled the bonfire, was in a state of no mood to sleep when he returned to the cave. While watching the bonfire, he continued to weave the half of the turf. The woman didn't know when she hugged him. Thinking of the scene where she hugged her, Locke looked intoxicated, Princess, this is much more noble than a nobleman. My brother is also very charming, and Locke is content.
The bonfire was burning, the quilts were woven in the cave, and Angelina was sleeping quietly. This night was very warm.
"And~" In the early morning, Rock, who yawned, stretched out his laziness that had not moved all night, walked to the lake to wash his face, and woke up clearly. There should be no other animals in this place. In the second half of the night, Rock didn't hear anything, only the faint howling of beasts came from the depths of the jungle in the distance. Of course, the distance was very far, Rock was not worried about uninvited guests coming to visit.
It was uncomfortable to wash his face with salt water. In addition, there were some minor scratches on Locke's face. Locke had carefully avoided the wound, but he still bared his teeth. After washing his face, Locke held the sharp stone stained with blood in one hand and held his dagger in the other hand, continuing the goal that he had not achieved yesterday and exploring the surroundings.
Angelina, who had not woken up for a day and two nights, made Locke's heart sank. The soldiers in the military camp usually didn't wake up for so long, so they probably would never wake up. Locke didn't know that Angelina was exhausted and her mental power was backfired. As for when Angelina could wake up, it depends on when her mental power could be restored. Judging from the actual situation of her entry-level apprentice, this time is between two and three days.
Locke went to the place where he woke up yesterday. He couldn't figure it out. If he fell directly from above and fell on this sand beach, even if the soft sand beach was used as a buffer, it would inevitably be pressed into meat pie. Unless it fell directly into the water like Angelina. Locke felt downstream yesterday that the buoyancy of this saltwater lake was not very great. No wonder Angelina, a living person, could float quietly on the water surface and not sink.
Since he might have fallen into the water at the first time, how could he get ashore? This saltwater lake should be a stagnant water, and he has no motivation to push him up. This time, Rocky carefully circled the saltwater lake. When he walked to the side of the cliff wall, a very faint "dingdong" sound came from behind a raised stone wall. When Rocky approached, he saw that water was constantly seeping under the stone wall, and the water flow rate was not low. Rocky took some with his hand and tasted it.
Tamsui, Locke's eyes lit up.
Looking at this stone wall that is not smaller than his body, Locke spitted in his hand, grabbed both sides of the stone wall with both hands and broke it hard. The stone wall was not as hard as expected, and it was easy to break it down. The stone wall fell into the lake, and then the "wag" water flowed down from the break of the stone wall and flowed into the lake. Locke guessed that there was a source of water in the mountain wall, and the water flow directly flowed into the bottom of the lake from the mountain wall, so the lake surface looked very calm, but in fact there was a thrust of water under the lake surface.
With the water source, Locke is much more relaxed, at least he doesn't have to worry about them thirsty. After all, the body fluids of the strange creature are limited. To provide the water for two adults, it also needs fresh water provided by the water source. Holding the water in his hand, Locke drank several sips. The water is much better than river water, and it has a sweet smell. Unfortunately, there is no container for water storage. Locke himself is fine, but Angelina is in trouble. It can't be held in his hand and put the water back and feed it to her. I guess the water has been sprinkled before he ran over.
Locke looked at the surrounding woods and had to make a wooden pot.
When he walked into the forest, Locke was not in a hurry to find a tree trunk that could make wooden pots. He couldn't cut down the trunks as thick as the tree trunks, and even the thin ones could not be made. Let's go and see first. In addition, Locke also tried to find a tree with fruits. In such a dense forest, he didn't believe that there were trees without fruits. There were many trees that could bear fruit even in winter, not to mention that it was not winter yet.
Locke didn't dare to go too far. He was afraid that the forest would make him confused. Every time he took two steps, he would use his dagger to engrave a mark. There were many pine trees here. Locke had already planned to go back at noon to bring a pine tower. He could not fill his stomach, and it was good to be a snack.
There are many trees in the woods, Locke didn't know. Although he had been traveling around the country for many years, most of the plants in the forest had never seen. After all, it was the Bering Mountains with demonized creatures, and it was normal to have plants he didn't know. Locke explained himself that the strange creatures by the lake, at least he had never seen them by the river in front of the village when he was a child.
After walking a lot of roads, he didn't find anything. Locke, who was a little impatient, simply walked a little deeper into the forest, and this time he didn't disappoint him. A strange tree with red leaves, with a few wilted yellow fruits hanging on the branches. Locke inserted his dagger back into the boots, used his hands and feet together, like a flexible monkey, climbed up the tree in two strokes. Locke was a good guy. When he was a child, he often went to the back mountain of the village with his neighbor Hans, and there were a lot of trees there.
After picking seven of them in total, Locke couldn't find them. If it weren't there, if it weren't for the trunk too far away from the tree, Locke couldn't reach them. After getting down the tree, Locke stuffed seven walnut-sized fruits into his arms and then walked forward. Perhaps the forest was deep and the trees were richer, Locke found several trees with fruits one after another, and the variety was different from the one he had met before. After a busy work, Locke had a bunch of fruits that he didn't know in his arms.
Mark this place and Locke walked back along the way.
It was already noon after I went back. The sun shone on the sand beach, and I felt a warm feeling, which was almost the same as the cold night. The lake water shone brightly under the sun, which was a beautiful scenery on earth. Unfortunately, Rock had no time to visit. However, the grayish-white creatures crawled out of the sand beach and basked the sun attracted Rock's attention. He licked his mouth and then "chicken" was used to play fruit plates at noon. Rock decided.
Back in his nest, Locke first obtained the harvest of the trip. He placed more than a dozen green or yellow fruits on the ground, and there was also a tree similar to a bamboo pole behind him. This was the material suitable for making a kettle that Locke had been searching for a long time.
Locke didn't know whether these fruits were poisonous, so he could only use the most primitive method to taste each one. He had Dou Qi in his body. As long as it was not very poisonous, it would be a little problem to take a little toxin. At most, he would have a stomachache. There were three kinds of fruits, two of which were fine after tasting them for half a day, and they were not poisonous. The other was slightly green and black spots. After Locke ate them, there was a little numbness on his abdomen. Even if it was not poisonous, Locke didn't plan to eat this kind of fruit. Who knows what side effects it had? Throwing away the slightly green fruit, there were still 12 fruits left, which should be enough to eat.
First, the bonfire was regenerated, and Locke went to the sand beach to reuse the same trick. "Bang! Bang!" Two sounds, the sharp stone in Locke's hand was stained with two fresh lives. Carrying two strange creatures with eight claws, Locke thought of a new method. He stuffed the washed several yellow fruits directly into the shell of the creature, and threw them into the fire together. Although the materials were limited, Locke was still very good at eating.
After a while, the aroma of meat came and it was time to eat. It had the aroma of meat and the fragrance of fruits. Locke had a very comfortable lunch. Of course, he did not forget to leave half of Angelina. The feeding process was no longer the first day of the day. Although Angelina's noble identity excited Locke, she was just a sleeping beauty at this time. After several tests, Locke calmly helped Angelina swallow it. He ran to the side of the cliff, used the shell of a strange creature that had been retained to collect some water, and fed Angelina. Locke was finished and packed up the residue.
After preliminary investigation in the morning, there was not even a living creature around these strange creatures, and I was too lazy to clean up. I just piled up food residues and threw them into the fire to keep glowing and heating.
Locke didn't plan to go out for the time being. There were still a few fruits left in the morning, and the strange creatures still crawling on the sand beach, so you don't have to worry about dinner. Locke bit a dark green fruit of another kind and took a dagger to pick up the trunk he found. Locke's sour fruit was sour, but he still ate very delicious. After all, he got a kettle with two arms long. He took it to the water and tried it. OK, no leak. Locke's principle is that it's rough and not important, just use it.
It's time to worship the Five Insect Temple again. Working together, Locke was too lazy to make new tricks, just like noon, "Fruit and Fruit", which was the name of the meal that Locke made for herself. As for when to leave this place, Locke has not yet considered it, so she has to wait for her to wake up. Her injuries have healed and her fighting spirit will recover before she can make plans. There are no threatening beasts here, there are water and food, so it's good to temporarily settle here.
