Chapter 1508 Hidden
It was obvious that there was no hope of escaping until the wolf was temporarily gone. It is best to do this when other greedy wolves are very tired, such as when they suddenly took a break to drink water after running for a long distance, that is, that time just now.
But at this time, the wolf will circle around the box. The most important thing is this wolf. The other greedy wolves are at most the same level as Chen Xuan. They are only stronger in body. If they really fight, Chen Xuan still has a glimmer of life. But the first wolf is different. He has surpassed humans at a glance. In the realm of mortals, Chen Xuan is no match for him.
Why is this dead wolf following the box so closely? Chen Xuan secretly cursed the wolf.
wait! Waiting for the opportunity, I don't believe that there will be no chance.
After resting for about half an hour, the greedy wolves loaded up the box again. After about an hour, the wolves entered a cave. The box was put down, and there was a burst of noise, but soon everything became quiet.
At first, Chen Xuan thought that these greedy wolves had arrived at their destination, which really worried him for a while. Later, he discovered that no Greedy Wolf came to check the box, and he realized that the wolves had just found a place to hide and rest temporarily. It seems that they will continue to transport spiritual crystals when night falls.
Chen Xuan was in the box and had no idea where he was at this time, and of course he had no idea where the wolves' final destination was.
Still can't find a way out of trouble! Chen Xuan was secretly anxious, but he didn't dare to relax and rest, fearing that some greedy wolf would open the box.
There were only a few greedy wolves making "huffing" sounds in the cave, and the other wolves should be distributed around the periphery of the cave. The high-intensity exercise last night made these low-level greedy wolves almost exhausted, so now more than half of them have fallen asleep.
Chen Xuan turned over in the box. Keeping in the same posture made his feet numb. He thought that he should find a way to restore his physical strength as much as possible. Either rest or practice, these are the two ways for a martial artist to recover his physical strength. Since he is trapped here now, Chen Xuan decided to try both methods.
It was okay when he was practicing, but when he was resting, Chen Xuan could still remain alert at first. As time went by, he actually fell asleep.
When he suddenly woke up, he couldn't help but be afraid for a long time. How could I be so careless? If someone had opened the box just now, I would have been doomed long ago. Fortunately, such a thing did not happen.
In fact, Chen Xuan also knew that Tanlang would not open the box again on the way. Because he heard that low-level orcs do not need spiritual crystal cultivation. They naturally increase their cultivation mainly through the growth of age. This time may be longer or shorter depending on their respective talents. Those with good talent will reach a cultivation level similar to that of a human cultivator in a very short period of time. At this time, they will become spiritually intelligent, and only at this time will they consciously use spiritual crystals to practice.
And now these greedy wolves participating in the transport are all the lowest level greedy wolves. They only have instinctive animal nature. They don't care about the spiritual crystals they carry.
And the escort was most likely a subordinate of a certain high-level beast clan. Although he already had spiritual intelligence and could rely on spiritual crystals to practice, it was impossible for him to escort the transport in front of so many low-level greedy wolves. of spiritual crystals. There is generally a natural and absolute obedience relationship between the superiors and subordinates of the orcs, especially when they are still at a low level. Only when they are fully transformed will they be the same as human monks, but by that time, they have already reached the semi-immortal realm.
After resting for a whole day, night came again, and the wolves began to carry the pack again. For wolves, night is when they feel safest. Chen Xuan couldn't even see anything outside at night, so there was no chance of escape, so he simply closed his eyes and waited for dawn.
Three days later, Chen Xuan almost went crazy. The alpha wolf is really a madman who is devoted to his duties. At night, he usually explores the way ahead. Once it rests, it will circle around the box a few times and then find a suitable position to squat down. In order to carefully observe the situation of the wolves, Chen Xuan has now left gaps on all sides of the box, so he can know the surrounding environment well. But the wolf just didn't leave him any chance.
On the morning of the fourth day, Chen Xuan was ready and decided to run away no matter what today. Because if he didn't escape, he would have no choice but to starve to death.
If the alpha wolf doesn't give him a chance, he must escape. In the past few days, he had also thought of a way to escape unless it was a last resort.
Because these greedy wolves are running with heavy loads, they always stop to drink water when they encounter a water source. Those water sources may be small streams, but they may be large rivers. The method Chen Xuan came up with was to break open the box unexpectedly when encountering a big river, and then rush into the river. As long as the alpha wolf intercepts him before he enters the river, his escape plan will be more than half successful. He knew that these greedy wolves couldn't swim. Even if the wolf barely knew the water, it would not be able to exert the strength of a cultivator like it could on land.
The most likely thing is that the wolf will not go into the water to pursue it at all, because it does not know how it suddenly appeared, and it will first feel psychologically afraid.
The decision has been made, Chen Xuan just needs to wait for the opportunity. Is the place where we are going to stop this morning a big river? Chen Xuan was looking forward to it, otherwise he would have to wait until night.
I have to say that Chen Xuan was very lucky. The wolves really stopped in front of a big river. In fact, the place where these greedy wolves stop every morning is usually the big river. Because most of them will jump into the river to take a bath at this time. If it were just a small stream, more than a dozen wolves would not be able to enjoy themselves at all. Speaking of bathing, Tanlang just stood in the water and groomed himself on this cold day.
Chen Xuan is not a landlubber, but his water quality is not good either. In addition, the weather is cold now, which is why he has not chosen water escape in the past few days. But aren’t we being forced into a hurry now?
Seeing the pack of wolves jumping into the water one after another, and the alpha wolf moving to the farthest place from him, Chen Xuan used all his strength to slam into the box.
With a "boom", the lid of the box was knocked out. Despite the pain in his back, Chen Xuan jumped out of the box without hesitation and ran towards the river with all his strength.
The wolf was startled at first. He stared blankly at a little man who suddenly jumped out of the box, and took a few steps back. By the time it saw what was going on, Chen Xuan had already run more than half the distance.
"Ouch", the first wolf went crazy, and at the same time he should have issued an order to the wolves playing in the water.
When the wolves in the water heard the roar, they all had frightened expressions, but when they heard the howl of the alpha wolf, they all raised their neck hairs and looked angrily at Chen Xuan, who was rushing toward them.
It seems that these greedy wolves are all born and well-trained warriors, and their reactions are excellent. Chen Xuan did not choose to stay away from the wolves and enter the water. Otherwise, the distance would be much longer and would leave enough time for the alpha wolf. He spotted a wolf blocking his path and rushed towards it with all his strength.
The wolf was still in the water, and its speed of movement was greatly affected. Seeing Chen Xuan rushing over, there was a trace of hesitation on his face, and his body leaned slightly to the side.
In this way, there is a little gap in the wolf pack. Chen Xuan crashed into the river through this gap.
With a "pop", Chen Xuan disappeared into the river. At this time, the wolf had already rushed to the riverside. It pounced on him, and it only took less than ten steps to make the final pounce. But because the speed at the start was still a little slow, this pounce still didn't even touch the skirt of Chen Xuan's clothes.
"Aw, aw", the first wolf was very angry and ordered the wolves in the water to continue chasing. But the wolves all looked at each other. Although they could play in the water by the river, they were still beasts who couldn't swim. Seeing the rapid flow of water in the middle of the river, although they were eager to give it a try, none of them dared to pursue it.
The first wolf opened its mouth wide, bit the greedy wolf that had just avoided Chen Xuan, and threw it into the middle of the river. This poor greedy wolf flopped in the middle of the river for a while and then sank to the bottom of the river, never to emerge again.
Chen Xuan held his breath as close as possible in the river and followed the flow of the river. After five or six minutes, he got up and took a breath. The alpha wolf on the shore soon discovered him, but this wolf had no way to continue the pursuit and could only watch him fiercely and dive into the water again.
The wolves followed Chen Xuan for a long distance, but finally gave up the pursuit. They have a more important task to do, which is to protect the spiritual crystal. The alpha wolf howled again, and when Chen Xuan emerged from the water again, he could no longer see the wolves.
After holding on in the water for a while, Chen Xuan climbed out of the river shivering. Of course, he chose to climb ashore from the other side of the river.
Cold, this was Chen Xuan's first feeling. He touched his wet clothes and smiled bitterly in his heart. Although it is safe for the time being, the first thing to do is to light a fire as soon as possible, otherwise you will die if you freeze for a while.
Chen Xuan took out the ring from his underwear pocket and took out a fire certificate from inside. Chen Xuan had prepared this fire dumpling in the past few days.
The most important thing to do after being able to escape from the water is to light a fire. Chen Xuan had planned this countless times in his mind. As for where the Huozhezi can be hidden, there is no need to think about it. The ring space belongs to another space and will never get water. Chen Xuan threw everything inside, including some of the wood spirit crystals in the box.
Although the ordinary wood spirit crystals in the box were not worth mentioning in Chen Xuan's eyes, he thought that he could not scare people with the best wood spirit crystals wherever he went, so he grabbed two handfuls of wood spirit crystals when he was preparing to escape. crystal. As for the number, I'm afraid it's more than a hundred.
It's a pity that Chen Xuan didn't prepare any clothes. This was what Chen Xuan felt most regretful about. The second thing is food. Chen Xuan is so hungry now that his head is a little dizzy. It seems that in the future, more daily necessities will be prepared in this space.
