I, mythical giant

Chapter 5
The mountains and forests at night can only be described in two words: terrifying.

On a single tree, Jiang Shan was curled up in a rattan hammock hidden among the dense branches and leaves, his spirit tense.

It's almost three hours away from entering the mountain.Before night completely enveloped the forest, Jiang Shan found this single tree on the sunny side of a hillside.

This tree is very large, with a pavilion like a cover, covering half of the hillside.Such a big tree prevents other trees, flowers and plants from receiving sunlight, so the strong will grow stronger and gradually become a single tree.

One advantage of choosing such a place to rest is that it has a wide view and can avoid sneak attacks to a large extent.

He found rattan from nearby, woven it into a hammock, and rested temporarily among the dense branches and leaves of the tree crown.

The canopy is also a huge ecological circle.Mosquitoes and birds live there, and poisonous snakes and insects should not be underestimated.Fortunately, I have prepared insect repellent in the backpack, otherwise I will not be safe.

The night was getting darker, and Jiang Shan was about to fall asleep in a daze. Suddenly, there was the sound of howling wind in the night sky, and a huge black shadow flew past the tree crown at the speed of the sound. The suffocating breath made the insects None of them dared to tweet.

Jiang Shan was awakened instantly. At that moment, his heart seemed to be grabbed by someone, and it almost stopped beating.

Fortunately, the black shadow comparable to the size of the tree crown did not stop, but went away in an instant, rushing into the sky and disappearing; Jiang Shan barely let out a breath.

But not long after that, before Jiang Shan could calm down, another beast came from the other side of the hillside and walked under the tree without any haste.

Jiang Shan held his breath and didn't dare to move.

The beast that passed under the tree was not as big as the black shadow that passed by the night sky just now, but the dangerous aura it revealed when it passed was not bad at all.

Jiang Shan was afraid that if he breathed a little too hard, he would be attacked by a ferocious beast and be buried in its belly.He didn't even dare to look at the beast.So I don’t know what this beast looks like.

In just half an hour, the birds and beasts that could easily kill Jiang Shan passed by here, and Jiang Shan couldn't help wondering whether it was right or wrong for him to choose this place.

Fortunately, there is no danger.

In this way, the spirit was tense until late at night; after several hours, no more ferocious birds and beasts passed by, Jiang Shan slowly let go of his tense heart, and he was relieved while adjusting his state according to the breathing method of Wu Qin Xi.

In a daze, a ray of sunlight shone on Jiang Shan's face through the gaps between the branches and leaves, and Jiang Shan woke up suddenly.

Its daybreak.

Jiang Shan climbed to the top of the canopy, looked around, and saw that the forest was full of vitality under the crimson sun; the terrifying atmosphere of last night was gone.

The sky is boundless, only some birds are flying; the mountains and forests are green, and deer can be seen at first glance.

It was peaceful.

Jiang Shan exhaled, expanded his chest, and breathed in the morning air in the mountains. After a while, he came down the tree with his backpack and sword in hand.

This place can't stay anymore.

We need to find a safer and more reliable place.

I found a few simple traps that I set near the bushes before climbing the tree last night, and I got a pheasant and a rabbit.Then I went to the creek on the other side of the hillside to wash and peel it off, and found a leeward place, drilled wood to make fire, and roasted rabbits and pheasants to fill my stomach.

After eating, the wound on the shoulder was replaced with gauze and powder, and re-bandaged.

After taking a short rest, we climbed up the hillside and walked up the ridge of the hillside. At noon, we came to a cliff in a barren mountain.

The cliff is about 30 meters high, next to a steep rock.The upper part of the stone intersects with the cliff, forming an arched hole, which can accommodate one person in and out.

Jiang Shan climbed the boulder and got into the arched hole with difficulty, only to find that the inside was also spacious.

Not only is it spacious, but it also has spring water!
Jiang Shan had a change of heart and planned to use this place as a temporary shelter - after experiencing the horror last night, Jiang Shan was not sure that the cave was really as safe as he imagined.

It took him some time to tidy up the cave; he built a platform with stones to use as a bed;

Then he went in and out, up and down, and with the full-level wilderness survival skills, he found some medicinal herbs, smoked the cave inside and out, and drove away the damp and humid insects in the cave.

A bale of soft hay was cut and the bed was laid.

Finally, a few dead trees were cut down and moved back to the cave to be stored as firewood.

After several times, it was getting dark again.

Jiang Shan took advantage of the fact that it was not completely dark yet, so he went to the nearby mountain stream and got some mountain crabs to fill his stomach, and then hurriedly returned to the cave.

The wound was changed before the rest.

This night, too much security.

After all, the area where the cave is located is dominated by rocky and barren mountains. There are not many trees, and most of them are sparse and low shrubs. Compared with the vast mountains and forests in the distance, this place is not attractive to large creatures.

Without large creatures, it would naturally not attract other large creatures, barely speaking, it was safe.

Jiang Shan felt a little relieved. In the next two days, the injury on his shoulder healed greatly. He explored the surrounding area with the cave as the center.

On the south and east sides of the cliff where the cave is located, there are boundless mountains and forests, rolling up and down as far as the eye can see; the west side is full of rocky and barren mountains.

At the end of the rocky mountain, there is an abyss with no bottom to be seen!

The abyss is at least 300 meters wide, and there are rocky mountains on the opposite side; the abyss is shrouded in clouds and fog, and nothing can be seen.

To the east is the direction that Jiang Shan went into the mountain before.

In fact, Jiang Shan was a little confused at this time - he did not travel to this world to do a survival show in the wild.Especially after seeing Yuanxin's superhuman strength, he is even more unwilling to waste time in the mountains.

However, there are many crises outside the mountain now, Cheng Tang's army is everywhere to catch slaves, he ran out with his body, half of the slaves were killed, and half of them were naturally dead.

I really don't know how long Cheng Tang will have to catch slaves.

He can't wait to touch the world.

Because he was really free, and on the premise that his injuries were greatly improved, Jiang Shan, in addition to preparing the necessary food, used the rest of his time to practice martial arts. In order to strengthen his body, he collected skills. In addition to Wu Qin Xi, he also had several other skills. , among which there are fighting skills, Zhi Tai Chi, he plans to pick it up and practice it.

Although I know that even if I practice Tai Chi to the fifth level, I will be nothing in this world, but practicing it is better than not practicing it at all.

In the face of danger, a little more strength will not make a difference.

This afternoon, after practicing Tai Chi, Jiang Shan saw that the level of Tai Chi had reached level three on the skill panel. Jiang Shan felt happy and made a rabbit to celebrate.

There are not many other things in this barren mountain and rocky bushes, but there are quite a few rabbits.It is Jiang Shan's main source of food these days.

It's just that the salt brought by crossing seems to be not enough, Jiang Shan is a little bit troubled.

After eating the rabbit, before the sun had completely set, we went to the stream to wash up, change dressings for the wounds, and then returned to the cave to prepare for a rest.

You don't dare to go out at night, that's asking for death.

In the middle of the night, Jiang Shan was awakened suddenly by the muffled sound of beating drums and shouts of killing; he sat up abruptly, turned over and jumped off the stone bed, touched the entrance of the cave, and looked around.

I saw in the distance near the junction of the forest and the barren mountain, under the faint moonlight, a few smoke-like shadows flashed, jumped, and collided among the rocks. The thunderous explosions were as dense as rain hitting banana trees. Wherever they passed, Dozens of tons, hundreds of tons or even thousands of tons of large rocks were blown to pieces!
