Chapter 2, was burned.

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

The wild boar fell silent, and the remaining wild boars, both large and small, immediately scattered. The white female wolf leaped once, and in her mouth, there was a small wild boar that was desperately squealing.

Being pushed from a high place to a low one, Yunlang rolled over several times, hearing a piercing pig's cry from beside him, yet his view was completely obstructed by the dense mugwort grass, rendering him unable to see anything.

Whether it is the leopard or Yunlang, both are very diligent; the difference lies in the fact that Yunlang's efforts yield significant results. That wild ginseng root has finally been moved to his mouth, and he took a bite.

Moreover, as a travel enthusiast and a fierce carnivore, the people of Guanzhong regard the uninhabited area of Mount Taibai as a place for spring outings; how could they possibly overlook this picturesque little mountain? Where would there be scenes of wolves, leopards, and bears roaming freely?

The monkeys on the pine tree were joyfully jumping around, while a plump monkey king favored one of his concubines in front of Yun Lang. After feeling satisfied with his desires, he picked some green plums from a plum tree and continuously threw them at Yun Lang, which could be considered a form of post-event play.

Yunlang originally intended to warn the wild boar, informing him that this was a trap, but the pain from the boar's snout digging into him was excruciating, making him naturally abandon any desire to play the role of a good person

There are benefits to being burnt, one of which is the high temperature. Additionally, being completely black enhances heat absorption. After testing a few times, a three-foot-long cauliflower snake, seeing that Yun Lang remained motionless, lazily coiled its body on his face and began to bask in the sun

The desire to pursue knowledge has arisen, and Yun Lang temporarily no longer wishes to die. After all, Hawking lives happily and easily. Although he is somewhat anxious, as long as there are significant discoveries, living is not bad. As long as there is some food, the issue of survival is not very great.

A white flash of lightning streaked past Yun Lang's eyes, and the few pairs of bright red nipples informed Yun Lang that the she-wolf had begun her attack

What does it feel like to be struck by dry lightning

Unable to move, Yun Lang quickly positioned himself based on the sun and the condition of the plants with his clever mind

The wild boar could no longer emit its final grunt, while the leopard continued to grip its throat tightly. Only when the wild boar ceased to move did the leopard violently shake its head, completely tearing apart the boar's throat.

He held a half-blood-red throat pipe in his mouth, casting a gloomy glance around with his dark eyes. The rustling sounds in the grass immediately intensified, and two gray wolves swiftly fled.

Yun Lang smiled wryly; the target of these wolves was the wild boars that appeared yesterday, and he had unwittingly acted as bait for their hunt

So hard, so bitter

Yun Lang made every effort to avoid the leopard's sinister gaze; in fact, the leopard was not paying attention to him. When the mother wolf and the wild boar resumed their fierce battle, he silently jumped down from the tree, his sharp claws fully extended in mid-air. Yun Lang watched in horror as the leopard's sharp claws pierced the wild boar's thick back like steel needles. The charging wild boar fell to the ground, its neck exposed, and was immediately seized by the leopard's jaws. The intense smell of blood was so strong that even from two meters away, Yun Lang felt like he might vomit.

Yun Lang, disregarding the pain all over his body, strained to hold his breath. Yesterday, he had been treated by these beasts as a piece of charred meat; today, he hoped that these creatures would still regard him in the same way

After yesterday's encounter, Yunlang realized that these wolves were not interested in the charred meat. At this moment, he fervently wished that the she-wolf would lie on his face, giving him the opportunity to drink a few mouthfuls of wolf's milk

The sky is a deep blue, with a few soft white clouds drifting by, one of which has deliberately shielded Yunlang from the sun

Then he glanced back at the leopard and quickly left the battlefield

Hope always lies in the morning of the next day, this is what the mother-in-law said. Whenever Yunlang feels disappointed and disheartened, his mother-in-law comforts him in this way

The leopard has tried many times, each time in vain, and it is evident that this creature is extremely anxious

Fortunately, the cold snake blood replenished him with a great deal of energy, while the snake meat beneath the skin, along with the skin itself, provided him with some protein, enabling him to endure yet another difficult night

Yunlang felt that he was a tragedy; although he was already roasted to perfection, those neighbors who clearly resembled beasts were unwilling to take a bite, wishing instead to hasten the end of his miserable fate

This is naturally a kind of luxury. After waiting for a full hour, the she-wolf showed no intention of approaching at all, but instead concealed her body among the wormwood not far away.

Long after, Yunlang felt fear at the sight of snakes, especially the sensation of a snake coiling around his neck, which could drive him to madness

The Suihua fir and the Qingqian willow both informed Yunlang that he was located in the Qinling mountain range, and the approximate latitude and longitude calculated indicated that he was currently near Lishan.

A wild ginseng plant grows right beside Yunlang's head, with a cluster of small red flowers blooming vibrantly at the top

What the mother-in-law says is always right, at least at the moment he was struck by the dry lightning, he was indeed glowing, the lingering taste of char helped him a lot, and last night, not even a mosquito paid him a visit

During this day and night, a total of four wolves, one leopard, one bear, and a group of wild boars came to visit him, among which one wild boar playfully nudged his body, allowing him to turn from lying on his stomach to lying on his back.

Yun Lang naturally had no intention of paying attention to what the leopard was doing. Being trampled by wild boars was not without its benefits; at least one root of the wild ginseng had been accidentally dragged over by the wild boar. He needed to work very hard to move his teeth in order to carefully shift that piece of root.

The wild boar is very heavy, much heavier than the leopard, and its attempt to drag the food up the tree is clearly futile

This item is exceedingly precious, and Yunlang is well aware of it. It is the renowned blood ginseng, and even in the production area of wild Panax notoginseng in Yunnan, one can hardly find a few genuine wild Panax notoginseng. Yet, here there is a vast expanse of it.

Three little wild boars with white stripes trampled over Yunlang's face and body, closely following their brave father

If greatness means being scorched by dry lightning, he would rather not have such greatness

If he were to find a suitable adjective, he feels that the term "roasted pig" very much fits his current appearance, yet he is still an undercooked pig

This is how a butterfly is born from its cocoon

Yun Lang once again lay on his back, deeply concerned about the area that had been trampled by the wild boar, as it was oozing blood. Right above his head, a golden leopard was glaring down with its emerald eyes, observing the battle beneath the tree like a schemer.

When knowledge conflicts with reality, knowledge that is time-bound becomes quite absurd

The wolf pack that hurriedly departed yesterday has returned, among them is a large, snow-white female wolf. The row of teats beneath her belly is red and swollen, indicating that she is a mother with cubs.

Yun Lang lay in the grass, pondering for an entire day and night, yet still could not comprehend why he had not died

His hands and feet remained immobile, which dashed Yun Lang's hopes of obtaining some wild ginseng tubers to replenish his blood

Yunlang also had a strong desire to eat ... The wild boar seemed to sense Yunlang's longing and nudged him aside with its snout, continuing to forage for food for its young.

The sun was quickly setting in the west, and a group of joyful wild boars emerged from the woods, their bodies covered in mud. The precious wild ginseng was uprooted one by one by their tusks and large mouths, revealing the thick tubers buried underground

A wild boar, scarred and blind in one eye, was solely responsible for digging up the tubers of the wild ginseng, while a group of piglets followed closely behind their father, eagerly competing to eat the wild ginseng tubers

It is often said that life begins with ignorance of letters, and this statement is indeed true

Even if the people of Guanzhong are simple and do not understand exploration, how could the government officials, who are so eager for economic prosperity that they would not hesitate to excavate ancestral graves to turn them into tourist attractions, let this paradise escape their grasp

This does not conform to reason He felt more like a silkworm wrapped in a cocoon than a person who has been roasted

A piercing and mournful cry of a pig rang in Yun Lang's ears, as he saw a massive wild boar charging through the weeds with a wolf on its back. It used its tusks to slash at another wolf's back, and then its heavy hooves came crashing down on the neck of a wolf that had not managed to stand up in time. It then spun in mid-air, violently throwing off the wolf on its back. Despite having a chunk of flesh the size of a palm torn from its neck, it still stood majestically, confronting the white she-wolf.

As for determining latitude using the sun's lines of dawn and dusk, it poses no difficulty for Yunlang; even through mental calculation, he can easily arrive at a conclusion

He is very certain about this; the only thing that confuses him is—when did the Japanese cedar and the green money willow grow abundantly enough to sprout freely on this small hill?

Indeed, he now looks like a corpse, with charred hands, charred arms, and a charred body, yet for some reason, his eyes are unharmed

This feeling is quite marvelous; the body still aches, but it is not the maddening burning pain. It resembles more the growing pains experienced by new life in its initial stages of growth

The Cunninghamia lanceolata and the Cyclocarya paliurus grow at the foot of the mountain. These two plants are easily identifiable, especially the Cunninghamia lanceolata, which has long, smooth leaves with two white stomata, making it very easy to recognize. As for the Cyclocarya paliurus, it is extremely familiar to Yunlang, as his grandmother suffers from diabetes, and he has often gathered leaves from the Cyclocarya paliurus to brew tea for her.

Wolves continuously passed over him, agile and swift, as if cavalry had launched the fiercest charge

This is a significant discovery—Yun Lang pondered to himself
