Chapter 16: New Foundation: Exploration Around the Camp

Wumeng Tianlong's mysterious "surprise" piqued everyone's appetite, and the three of them couldn't wait to set off towards the east early the next morning.

After walking for a while, just as Wumeng Tianlong said, a lush forest appeared before our eyes, with birds singing one after another, and the air was filled with the fragrance of soil and grass. It was so healing!

However, the ideal is full, and the reality is very skinny.

It is easy to build a camp, but finding a suitable place to build a camp is really "hell-level" difficult.

The surrounding trees were either too thick or too thin, as if they were deliberately against them.

"This tree is too thick. I can't cut it down!" Zhaoyang Ruyue complained, feeling like she was going to collapse from exhaustion in the next second.

The situation of Wumeng Tianlong was not much better. He tried to cut down a few small trees, but once they were put up, it felt like it would fall apart at the slightest wind. It was definitely a shoddy project.

Just when the three were at their wits' end and ready to give up, Zheng Xiongxiong stood up and patted his chest: "Leave it to me!" He led the two of them through a thicket of bushes, and suddenly the view in front of them opened up to a forest. The trees were of moderate thickness, with straight branches, and they looked very sturdy.

"How is it? Didn't disappoint you?" Zheng Xiongxiong raised his eyebrows proudly. "This is my secret base. I won't tell anyone!"

The three of them immediately plunged into the busy camp construction.

Zhaoyang Ruyue was responsible for planning the layout of the camp, Wumeng Tianlong was responsible for cutting down trees, and Zheng Xiongxiong was responsible for building the framework.

The three of them worked together in perfect harmony and with great efficiency, and a simple camp framework was quickly built.

"Only a few more!" Wumeng Tianlong swung his stone axe, preparing to deliver a fatal blow to the last tree... Suddenly, a muffled groan broke the silence of the forest...

"Oh my god!" Wumeng Tianlong screamed, and the stone axe flew out of his hand and flew straight out. Fortunately, no one was hit.

"What's going on, brother?" Zheng Xiongxiong rushed forward and saw Wumeng Tianlong covering his left hand, blood oozing out from between his fingers, and his face was pale.

"My hand... my hand slipped..." Wumeng Tianlong grimaced in pain, with beads of sweat the size of beans streaming down his forehead.

"Oh my god! This is too deep!" Zhaoyang Ruyue also rushed over and couldn't help but gasp when she saw the shocking wound.

If this happened in modern times, wouldn't the patient be rushed to the hospital for stitches immediately?

But now... where can I find a hospital in this remote place?

She suddenly remembered a herb she had seen in the tribe before, which was used by priests to stop bleeding. The leaves were slender, with serrated edges, and it smelled faintly fragrant.

"You guys wait here, I'll be back soon!" Zhaoyang Ruyue said this and dived into the nearby bushes.

Hard work pays off, and she finally found it!

She carefully picked a few leaves, wiped them with her clothes, and then put them in her mouth and chewed them. A bitter taste spread instantly.

"Pah, pah, pah, this thing is too disgusting! It's even more bitter than bitter melon!" She complained while applying the chewed herbs on Wumeng Tianlong's wound.

Miraculously, this herb really worked. The bleeding stopped after a while.

"Oh my god, Sister Yue, this is a secret recipe passed down from our ancestors, it's so effective?" Wumeng Tianlong felt the pain relieved a lot and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

"Of course, don't you see who I am?" Zhaoyang Ruyue raised her chin proudly and was about to praise herself a few more times... Suddenly, Zheng Xiongxiong raised his head abruptly, his eyes full of vigilance, and whispered, "Shh, don't say anything..."

Zheng Xiongxiong held his breath and stared at the dense grass in front of him.

Zhaoyang Ruyue and Wumeng Tianlong also immediately became alert and picked up the tools around them, ready to fight at any time.

The atmosphere froze in an instant, with only the rustling of leaves in the wind and the nervous heartbeats of the three people.

The bushes shook, and a huge bear slowly walked out.

Wow, this bear is even bigger than the brown bears in modern zoos. Its brown fur is shiny and greasy. It looks like it is someone you don’t want to mess with.

It seemed to be full of curiosity about the newly appeared camp. It sniffed the air and then walked towards the camp with heavy steps.

"Oh my god! What's going on? Are there bears around?!" Wumeng Tianlong took a breath of cold air. It was in this remote wilderness and there was not even a signal. If he was really targeted by this bear, he would be helpless.

"Don't panic!" Zheng Xiongxiong, a true warrior of the tribe, remained calm in the face of such a behemoth. He picked up his spear, assumed a fighting stance, and whispered, "Sister Yue, Tianlong, you two make some noise nearby to distract it. I'll take the lead!"

"Okay!" Zhaoyang Ruyue and Wumeng Tianlong no longer cared about being afraid. They picked up stones and sticks and threw them towards the big bear. They shouted loudly while throwing, trying to anger the big bear and attract its attention.

Zheng Xiongxiong seized the opportunity, rushed forward, and pierced the big bear's eyes with the spear in his hand!

The big bear reacted very quickly, swung its paw violently, and with a "snap" sound, it knocked the spear off course.

Zheng Xiongxiong dodged the big bear's attack by turning sideways, then went around to the side of the bear and attacked again.

A man and a bear started fighting back and forth.

Zhaoyang Ruyue and Wumeng Tianlong were also making noises to interfere with the big bear's judgment, and they would throw stones at it from time to time, making the big bear scream.

"Warrior, be careful!" Zhaoyang Ruyue suddenly exclaimed... Zhaoyang Ruyue was sharp-eyed and saw that a python as thick as a bowl appeared behind the big bear at some point, spitting out its tongue and waiting for an opportunity to move.

The python was emerald green all over and blended in with the surrounding vegetation. If it weren't for Zhaoyang Ruyue's good eyesight, it would have been difficult to spot.

When Zheng Xiongxiong heard Zhaoyang Ruyue's reminder, he immediately realized that the situation was not good.

He made a feint to force the bear back, then quickly retreated to create distance between himself and the python.

"Oh my god, there's a hidden BOSS here!" Wumeng Tianlong complained, but his hands were not idle. He continued to pick up stones and throw them at the big bear, trying to lure it away.

The big bear roared in anger after being hit by the stones. He no longer cared about Zheng Xiongxiong and turned around to rush towards Wumeng Tianlong.

"Tianlong, be careful!" Zhaoyang Ruyue shouted nervously.

At this critical moment, Zheng Xiongxiong suddenly threw the spear in his hand and hit the big bear's throat!

The big bear let out a scream and fell to the ground with a bang.

"Beautiful!" Wumeng Tianlong shouted excitedly. He was really scared to death just now.

However, the crisis has not been resolved.

The bloody smell emanating from the big bear's corpse quickly attracted the attention of other carnivores around.

In the distance, there were bursts of wolf howling and the roars of other unknown beasts.

"Looks like we'll be busy tonight." Zheng Xiongxiong said solemnly as he picked up the spear from the ground and said to Zhaoyang Ruyue and Wumeng Tianlong, "We need to quickly reinforce the camp and prepare for the next challenge."

Zhaoyang Ruyue and Wumeng Tianlong also realized the seriousness of the problem and took immediate action to collect wood and reinforce the fences, and were very busy.

Zheng Xiongxiong set up some simple traps around the camp, hoping they would be effective.

The sun gradually sets and the sky becomes darker.

Zheng Xiongxiong looked up at the sky and said in a deep voice, "It's a dark and windy night, a time for murder and arson..."

"Warrior, this is not a good sign..." Zhaoyang Ruyue said worriedly.

Zheng Xiongxiong patted her shoulder and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, I'm here. Even if the king of heaven comes, I can beat him back!"

Suddenly, a cold wind blew, and the leaves rustled... Zheng Xiongxiong turned around abruptly, looked at the woods behind him, and whispered, "Here it comes..."
