Survive in the beast world

Chapter 57 The Realm of Dreams

In the boundless wind and snow, even the creatures that often live on the snowfield will get lost, and it is not suitable to move forward again at this time.Li Shizhen jumped out of the trailer by himself and helped Baihu push the cart behind. Baihu turned his head and said something loudly in the front. Li Shizhen couldn't hear clearly in the wind and snow.

He coughed and said intermittently: "Find... find a... shelter from the wind..."

Baihu knew his stubbornness, no matter what he said at this time, Li Shizhen would definitely not be willing to go back to the trailer, so it was better to find a shelter from the wind and stop to rest.

Finally, they stopped in a mountain depression sheltered from the wind. A group of mammoths had already stayed in the mountain depression. The elephant herd surrounded several small elephants in the innermost part, keeping warm while avoiding the wind and snow.

There is still some distance between them and the herd of elephants, and the two sides live in peace for the time being.

Under the wind and snow, Baihu dug a hole downwards, and then dug a snow hole horizontally. After taking a picture, he jumped into Li Shizhen, who was trembling and coughing.

Even though it was just a temporary safe haven built by ice and snow, Li Shizhen felt that the whole world would suddenly become warmer without the wind and snow, so he closed his eyes in peace.

Bai Hu was worried and annoyed when he saw Li Shizhen, whose face was purple in his arms and semi-fainted due to the cold and lack of oxygen. In his memory, it was impossible to have such a snowstorm at such a time. However, it was even more unexpected Surprisingly, the heavy snow has not stopped for two days.

Li Shizhen was half asleep and half awake, and felt his chest was heavy, as if he couldn't breathe.The world is always cold and white, but the white around him seems to be very warm. Sometimes when the white leaves, he is very reluctant, hugging and rubbing.

Then, someone would feed him warm soup, gently smooth his chest, help him change a relaxed position, and let him continue to sleep comfortably.

In the middle of the night, Li Shizhen, who regained a little consciousness from the warm feeling, slowly opened his eyes, and the surrounding was completely white. Even in the dark night, the visibility was not low.

He saw a face that seemed familiar yet strange, familiar because the face of a tiger had been cute and playful in front of him since the first time they met, and it was so majestic in front of dangerous challenges. He never escaped; it was strange because this tiger face was so emaciated, it seemed that the flesh he had replenished since he transformed into a human had lost weight quickly, and he looked even more emaciated than when he just transformed into a human form.

Li Shizhen coughed slightly, and looked around. Baihu's underground snow cave was dug fairly well, leaving only a small ventilation hole, and the entire cave was tightly surrounded by snow blocks.

It seems that he is really very familiar with this way of life, and there are still logs burning on the ground.

Li Shizhen took a closer look and smiled helplessly. It was indeed the end of the world at this time, and he could still hear the whistling of wind and snow outside the house. He looked at the empty food bag next to him, and then at the trailer that had been dismantled into wood. At this point, even the trailer had to be burned to keep warm.

In order to keep Li Shizhen warm, in such a cold weather, the white tiger actually lay down around Li Shizhen like this, almost all the animal skins were piled on Li Shizhen's body, and only a thin layer was placed under his body. Thin animal hides insulate from ice and snow.

Li Shizhen finally took his hand out from the thick animal hide and put it on the white tiger's forehead. Fortunately, he didn't have a fever, but his hand slid down the big cat's cheek, and the fur was a little dry, almost too thin to touch. Below the skin is the bone.

This stupid big cat is probably switching its body frequently to take care of him. Li Shizhen wanted to laugh helplessly, but he didn't succeed. Only a drop of crystal in the corner of his eye quickly solidified into ice crystals in the cold snow cave.

As if feeling the warmth on its cheeks, the big cat slowly opened a pair of eyes that were clear and blue even in the dark night, and then gave a soft "owwow".

He stretched out his tongue and licked Li Shizhen's hand lightly. The rough feeling of the feline tongue passed by, but what Li Shizhen felt more was warmth.

What is he capable of? In this strange and cruel world, he would like someone to bear his life with his own life. He never thought of giving up. warmth.

Li Shizhen coughed, since the white tiger was so stubborn and refused to give up on him, then he himself should not give up.

He slowly sat up around the animal skin: "Are the elephant herds still outside?"

The white tiger patted its tail, it seemed that Bai was also paying attention to the group of mammoths all the time, thinking of their plans.

Li Shizhen looked at Baihu's empty stomach, how dangerous this guy was to forcefully change his body while hungry.

For those mammoths, Li Shizhen pondered, there is no way, in this desperate situation of survival, everyone can only fight to the death.

There was a herd of elephants calling outside, and Li Shizhen gently pushed the white tiger: "Let's go and have a look."

In order to save fuel, one man and one tiger climbed up after pulling out a few wooden sticks. Hiding behind the snowdrift, one man and one tiger clearly saw the movements of the elephant herd, and the wind and snow had eased.It seemed that the herd was about to leave, but one mammoth lingered and refused to leave.

The snowstorm at this time is no longer a problem for the activities of the elephant herd. It is a terrible fact that they have not eaten for a few days.Their huge size requires a lot of food to maintain heat.

Li Shizhen turned his head and asked, "What's going on?"

His eyesight was not as good as that of the white tiger, and he could see vaguely in the snowflakes. Why was the elephant that refused to leave circling around something while the herd was about to leave.

The white tiger waved its paw, gesticulating something.

The snow is also white, and its claws are also white.

Li Shizhen coughed, there were double images in front of his eyes, he felt that he was really cheating, he was already dizzy, and he was dazzled for a while, but he couldn't see anything.

Li Shizhen supported his forehead, forget it, let's continue to read by himself.

The elephant herd seemed a little impatient, and many elephants took their own steps under the long cry of the leader.

From where they got out of the way, Li Shizhen saw a small group on the ground, which was a baby elephant.Its mother curled it gently with her long nose, as if she hoped that it was just being naughty for a while, and could get up as lively as usual. The baby elephant just lay quietly on the ground without any response. One long beep after another.

Without words, in the snowflakes falling from the sky, Li Shizhen felt the grief in the long cry.

The blizzard was so severe that this little elephant didn't seem to be able to make it through, and only its mother was willing to stay in the cold for him in the whole herd.

Perhaps this wind and snow also has a last bit of love, the sky is full of snow, it seems like a silent funeral, sending that little life to this world for the last time, it came to this world clean and clean, and now it is doing it here Leave in the pure wind and snow, just like when you came.

Li Shizhen coughed a few times and felt a little dizzy. Baihu gently arched him beside him, as if he wanted him to go back to the igloo to rest.Baihu is confident that he has enough patience to wait until the female elephant leaves.

Li Shizhen looked at the lingering female elephant, then at the thin white tiger, and made up his mind. In the desperate situation of the jungle, the compassion and sympathy in human nature are really too extravagant emotions.He felt a kind of unspeakable sadness, but he still firmly walked back to the house.

Li Shizhen returned to the igloo and did not add fire immediately. Obviously, this kind of fire cannot maintain much heat. Eating a lot of food is the key to keeping him and Baihu warm, and the sooner the better.

Li Shizhen dug out his backpack. The mobile phone was in the innermost layer of the backpack. After wandering around for so long, he didn't lose it.

In the cold weather, Li Shizhen put his hand next to the dying fire and roasted it, and he took a breath before pressing the power button. The cold made the phone's response seem to be a bit slow.

Li Shizhen turned to the alarm that was recorded last time, Baihu saw the impressive interface on the phone, and silently moved aside, waiting for Li Shizhen to go out with him again.He wouldn't admit that when this female was experimenting last time, he immediately sat up in fright and checked around, it was too embarrassing.

Li Shizhen didn't do any more experiments this time, Bai Hu and him went out to ambush behind the snowdrift, and Li Shizhen pressed the trial listening button.

The terrifying sound of the tyrannosaurus gradually sounded from weak to strong. From a distance, it sounded like some terrible creature was slowly approaching, and even the sound of its steps was recorded in it.

This is also on the snowy field, and there are relatively few creatures, so Li Shizhen dared to play it. If you want to be in the woods, you may not be able to attract any creatures.

An urgent call came from the leader of the elephant herd from afar.

Finally, the mother elephant patted the baby elephant with her trunk, raised her head to the sky and let out a long mournful cry, and followed the herd of elephants back and forth.

No matter how sad or painful the state of mind is, it cannot withstand the threat brought by reality. This is also the bloody law of survival on the mainland.

When the elephants walked away, Li Shizhen prepared the ropes on the trailer, and he stepped forward to check the baby elephant's signs, and it was true that he was not breathing.Li Shizhen breathed a long sigh of relief, at least his sense of guilt would not be so strong, although even if the little elephant could still breathe, he had already made up his mind.

One man and one tiger, one pushing behind and the other pulling in front, pushed the baby elephant's body into the snow pit dug by the white tiger, right next to the igloo.

Li Shizhen stopped the white tiger's idea of ​​eating raw, or cooked food is more conducive to restoring physical strength and calories.

Back in the igloo, seeing that there was only one bar of battery left, Li Shizhen silently removed the battery.Then he was surprised to find that the small adhesive tape he had pasted on the phone card for easy extraction was gone. He thought about it, did he accidentally leave it behind when he disassembled it?

But those memories of changing phone cards were so long ago that they seemed to have happened in his previous life. He had no memory of such things. He lost his mind for a while. He felt that the memories of the earth were illusory like a movie, and the ice and snow in front of him was real.

When Li Shizhen turned his head, Baihu had already set up all the fires.

One of the elephant's legs was already in its mouth, and Li Shizhen stretched out his head to see that the baby elephant had been buried in snow by the white tiger.In this kind of cold weather, there is no need to worry about bloody attracting other predators for the time being.

Soon, the cooked food warmed the bodies of one person and one tiger quickly. Li Shizhen observed the weather outside, and estimated that it would be sunny outside after the snow stopped.

"How long will it take to arrive?" Li Shizhen asked the white tiger who was napping after eating.

The white tiger let out a soft "owwow".

Li Shizhen nodded, it seems that it is really not far away.He spit out a mouthful of phlegm slowly, took a few breaths of cold air, and suppressed the bloody smell in his throat.

Fortunately, he met a herd of elephants, otherwise his physical condition might not let the white tiger relax to hunt.

Prepare food and weapons later, take a good rest, and get ready to go when the weather clears.

Li Shixuan stroked the white tiger beside him resting with his eyes closed. Outside the snow cave, the wind and snow all over the sky gradually dissipated, and the heavy lead cloud in the sky seemed to gradually dissipate. Seeing the golden light coming in through the ventilation holes, Li Shixuan Zhao narrowed his eyes slightly, but didn't wake up the tired white tiger immediately.

His coughing gradually subsides, and the warm sun rises after the snowstorm, hoping that everything will be better——

One person and one tiger brought plenty of food, and Li Shizhen even prepared a lot of oil. This time there was no trailer, and Baihu carried all the food alone. Fortunately, both of them left unnecessary daily necessities here, which greatly eased his burden. burden.

According to Baihu's description, this place should not be far from his home.

The two set off together with food and weapons. Li Shizhen wrapped himself up thickly and tied him directly to the white tiger. Then he lay down between the white tiger's strong shoulders to avoid the cold wind.

This last section of the journey seemed extremely long, the sky and the earth were still white, and even after it got dark, the sky and the earth were still ominously white.Li Shizhen felt that the world was dead silent and numb, only his heavy breathing sound like a broken bellows and the creaking sound of a white tiger stepping on the snow seemed to be a never-ending rhythm, as if this terrifying snow white was going to trap them forever Here, like that little elephant.

This repeated rhythm has a terrible hypnotic rhythm, as if to say: sleep, sleep, after sleeping, there will be no more pain, and the cold, dizziness, and pain will all go away.Look, this snow-white world sleeps here, how clean and comfortable it is.

But the body beneath him that has been constantly moving forward made Li Shizhen bite the tip of his tongue fiercely, and only then did he feel that his whole body was numb unconsciously.He bit off the animal skin on his fingertips with his teeth, the cold wind quickly took away the heat from his fingertips, as if he had no consciousness anymore, he put his fingers on the white tiger's shoulders, feeling the muscles of the fiery body stretching beneath him , feeling that the people below are desperately moving forward.

Someone is willing to carry him so desperately forward, why would Li Shizhen give up, and how dare he give up!It seemed that from a moment on, all sleeping thoughts were far away. Li Shizhen pursed his lips into a resolute arc, raised his black eyes, and stared directly at the white world in the darkness.

He pressed his left rib hard, and coughed heart-piercingly again. Although he was still a little dizzy, the sudden inhalation of a large amount of cold air was slightly better than the state where he might fall asleep and faint at any time. a little bit.Li Shizhen even spared no effort to pay attention to Baihu's physical condition.

In the cold, he stretched out his hand and touched the wet snow on the white tiger's body. The white tiger spewed out a large amount of white mist during his breath, obviously trying to move forward with will.But Li Shizhen didn't dare to tell him to stop and rest. They were all afraid that once they stopped, they would never be able to move forward again. They dropped all their equipment and only had a little food and weapons. They had no way out and could only keep moving forward.

Even the big cat who is not good at endurance can only move forward at this time, no one understands the horror of this snow field better than him, and there is no retreat at this moment, just like it did many years ago.However, the difference is that at this moment many years later, there is a clear goal of returning home in front of him, and he is still burdened with heavy worries behind him. How can he stop?How can you stop?

In this snow field, he couldn't defeat him when he was young, let alone now!

At this moment, the two seemed to have a tacit understanding, as if they felt the belief that the other party would never give up at this moment.Li Shizhen wiped the water stains on the white tiger's body with the animal skin in his hand, and the two walked according to the speed of walking. Li Shizhen first fed the white tiger something to eat, and then ate something himself. They just stayed for a short moment, and then moved forward immediately. If they stayed for a while longer, they would probably get cold and it would be difficult to move forward——

Even if it is a boundless snowfield, in the face of an iron will, there will be an end.

Li Shizhen, who raised his head amidst the white tiger's soft "owwow", forced himself to shake his head to get rid of the dizziness in his head, and then he saw clearly what the white tiger wanted him to look at: the snow-capped mountain ridge in front of him. There is a tall green tree standing still.

It seems that it has been there since the beginning of Xuefeng for thousands of years, without saying a word, and the years are its best explanation.

In the whiteness of the sky, this touch of verdant green seems to be the most unruly struggle of all life, so tall and straight, so unyielding.

At this moment, the endless dark blue sky, the endless white snowfield and even the gorgeous morning glow behind it all become its background. As long as this touch of green is there, you will know that this place is occupied by life, and this place is not barren.

The white tiger climbed up the snow peak gradually, and Li Shizhen had been staring at the big tree that made people have to pay attention. He was surprised that this big tree was so huge. Just now, against the backdrop of the snow peak and the sky, he He already felt how tall it was, but as he got closer, Li Shizhen became more and more sure that even in the primeval jungle, he had never encountered such a tall and stalwart tree.

No, maybe it can no longer be called a tree. It has stood in such a harsh snowfield for such a long time, seeing all the clouds and clouds, and the vicissitudes of life. It should be called an elder who has gone through the changes of time.

Years have left countless traces on its trunk, those forced to bend the trunk, and those places with deep imprints, but they can't change its straight upward and lush flourishing.

As the white tiger climbed, Li Shizhen was even more amazed to find that what he saw was only the canopy of this big tree!Its roots are deep in the back of the snow peak!

Could it be that the place where the roots of the big tree take root is the home of the white tiger?Li Shixuan couldn't help but feel his heart beat faster.

Then, as the white tiger climbed to the back of the snow peak, Li Shizhen lay on the white tiger, dumbfounded. The long trek through the snow field made him think that he was almost hallucinating, because the scene in front of him could only be seen in a dream.

Below is a huge valley, surrounded by snow-capped peaks, all the scenery is blurred like a phantom, or a fairyland that can only be seen by accidentally entering the back garden of the gods in a dream.

The lush forests and clear and calm lakes seem to be shrouded in thick smog, looming.

At this moment, the first ray of sunlight in the morning pierced through the heavy clouds and mist and shone on the lake, creating a small wave of light.One, two, and countless rays of sunlight pierced through the clouds like spotlight beams, and the calm lake began to reflect sparkling golden light.It was as if a stunning figure in the painting suddenly stood in front of his eyes, with a bright smile, which made people startled to wow.

With the sunlight, it can be clearly seen that these graceful mountains and mist are not static, but are slowly flowing and surging. No language in the world can reproduce the magnificence and shock of this cloudy and misty scene.

These clouds and mists seem to float slowly from the surrounding snow peaks, and seem to rise slowly from the lake, intertwined and merged into one piece, regardless of each other, it is too beautiful to behold.

Under the reflection of the morning glow, this white cloud and mist was dyed with golden light, and the whole valley was almost wrapped in this warm and dazzling golden light, which was not like the scene that should be in the mortal world.

Li Shizhen looked back, and there was still a boundless snowfield behind him. He turned around again, and the sun in the clouds, forests, seas and lakes in front of him had not disappeared, and the movement of the valley surrounded by golden light was amazingly beautiful.

Li Shizhen couldn't help coughing, just now he was afraid that if he made a sound, this too beautiful dream would be disturbed.

It turns out that the fairyland-like place in the dream is really the home of the white tiger.It is like a god lost in the back garden of this snow field. If not, how could such a peaceful, beautiful and vibrant place appear on this barren and bitterly cold snow field?

That big tree stands at the bottom of the valley close to the snow peak, and it actually rises from the valley, exposing the crown of the tree to the snow peak to absorb more sunlight and rain.

The huge tree canopy can even completely cover a person and a tiger on the snow peak. Li Shizhen looked up and saw that there seemed to be some small animals on the tree in the early morning looking for food. A clumsy animal that looked like a big squirrel, no wonder Be careful what fruit you drop.

Li Shizhen smiled slightly, reaching out to grab the fruit that was about to hit him on the head. The fruit was still a little green, with only a touch of brown, but it was also about the size of a tennis ball. It seemed that the flesh was hollow and not heavy. .

Li Shizhen looked at the big tree in front of him and smiled slightly. He should regard this fruit as a blessing bestowed on him by the elders in this fairyland on earth.

Finally arrived, the white tiger seemed to be hesitating under his feet, probably because of the timidity of being close to the hometown.Li Shizhen hugged Baihu's neck in understanding to comfort him, Baihu turned his head and rubbed against him, one person and one tiger stared at the dreamlike place in front of them again, seeming a little crazy.

They have finally arrived, Baihu's hometown, a place they once thought they could not reach or return to, they have finally arrived.

The author has something to say: This is the normal plot progress under the outline arrangement, and good and bad depend on each other. If you have not experienced these, there will be no extra gains.

Well, finally completely finished the copy.

In addition, I didn't want to explain it at first, but I should say it after thinking about it. If you don't explain the big environment such as terrain, climate, and ecology, there will be no special humanistic environment, let alone a different civilization.All the development of civilization in human history is closely related to these big environments. This is to explain the rationality of society, as well as foreshadowing. Please don’t skip it as nonsense, I’m not rambling casually [ Dirt]!
