Chapter 223 Strange Cave
He Fei thought for a moment, then a kind smile appeared on her lips.
She placed the rabbit meat in her hand at her feet and nodded to the little fox dog.
The little fox terrier tilted its head, seemingly trying to understand what He Fei meant by nodding.
After He Fei turned and left, the little fox dog darted to the rabbit meat, took a bite, and then let out a happy "squeak".
It devoured almost half of the rabbit meat in no time.
You wouldn't believe how big this little guy's appetite is.
The little fox terrier ate until its belly was round and full, then licked the oil off its mouth and paws with its pink tongue before swaying back into the white mist.
"That little thing, it must have eaten rabbit meat by now, right?" Even after leaving Hongmeng Heaven, He Fei was still worried about the little fox.
Remembering the little fox, she entered the space. Inside, the little fox had finished eating the meat and was resting. Seeing him come over, she was very happy, it seemed she had eaten well. She remembered that she had just killed a snake, but she had forgotten about it because the snake meat didn't taste as good as the rabbit meat.
So she took out the snake meat, placed it next to the little fox, and waved it around, asking, "Do you want to eat this?"
The little fox was really hungry, so when it saw there was still meat, it happily ran towards it and meowed. He Fei could tell it seemed to be saying that it wanted to eat.
"Eat up, and then get some rest. Practice your skills and improve yourself," He Fei said to the little fox.
The little fox understood He Fei's words and happily began to eat.
Seeing the little fox like this, He Fei secretly made up her mind to find some more meat the next day and continued deeper into the mountains.
She spent the entire day searching for antidotes alone, gradually moving from the outer perimeter to the inner perimeter, and finally gathered all the necessary antidotes before nightfall.
While it was still light, she found a dry tree and began the most primitive steps of starting a fire. However, due to the dampness, it took her more than an hour to get the fire going, and her hands were blistered from the process. But all of this was worth it after she finally ate the roasted rabbit.
After finding some antidote herbs and filling my stomach, I crushed some herbs I had picked in the afternoon and rubbed them on my body. Then I put out the fire, climbed a big tree, found a comfortable spot, and planned to rest for the night.
Being in such a place, and all alone, she naturally couldn't light a fire. Otherwise, she would become a target for wild animals as soon as night fell. She didn't have the energy to deal with wild animals right now. So, even though it was a bit cold in the tree and there was no fire to keep warm, it was safer, wasn't it?
Sure enough, as night deepened, the faint howling of wolves echoed through the forest, reverberating in the darkness and sending chills down one's spine.
He Fei, however, was fast asleep with her eyes closed, taking the wolf howls as a lullaby in the forest at night.
Naturally, she was unaware that a dark figure in a nearby tree was watching her every move in the woods...
As the sun rose, the monster's howls faded into the distance, and only a few cries could be carried by the wind.
Straightening her back and wiping away her sweat, He Fei estimated her location and realized that she was getting further and further away. The sunlight was now half blocked by the towering mountain peaks, and in the damp places, moss was gradually growing, making the road surface much more slippery.
Suddenly, a rising mist caught He Fei's eye. About a hundred meters away, the terrain was extremely low, and the path down was even steeper and more difficult to walk. Clumps of white mist were rising and lingering in the air for a long time.
He Fei tightened the knife handle around her wrist with a strip of blue cloth, roused herself, and carefully walked toward the place where the white mist was rising, cutting away the bushes that were blocking the way.
When He Fei reached the place where the mist was rising, she was stunned. It turned out that this was a bottomless pool. The sound of flowing water echoed in her ears, and a dampness floated on her face. Even in the summer, it felt cold.
"Hey, isn't this the Blood-Clearing Grass?"
A blood-red herb with three leaves growing side by side, layer upon layer, came into He Fei's view. However, when he saw where the herb was growing, he immediately calmed down and couldn't help but gasp.
This Blood-Clearing Grass was growing on the edge of a deep pool, below which the bottom was unseen!
With a quick glance, He Fei had an idea. He turned around, swung his knife and cut down a few long tendrils, then wrapped them together to make an incredibly strong rope.
One end was tightly tied to a tree, and the other end was wrapped around her waist. A smug smile appeared on He Fei's face.
She took two steps, took a deep breath, and bent down to reach for the Blood-Activating Grass with her left hand. At the same time, her eyes were fixed on her surroundings, and she gripped the knife tightly in her right hand, ready for an attack from the magical beasts protecting the grass.
The blood-clearing grass swayed in the wind. He Fei bent down and reached down. The rope tightened and made a crackling sound. Slowly, she bent down until her body was almost parallel to the ground. Her face turned red, the veins on her arms bulged, and her breathing became rapid.
"I'm almost there!" He Fei was so close to the Blood-Clearing Grass that she could even smell its unique fragrance. She couldn't help but feel excited.
call out!
Just as she was about to reach out and pluck the Blood-Activating Grass, a dark object flashed before her eyes like lightning, then rammed into He Fei's chest with great force.
The moment she was hit, He Fei recognized her Waterfox. She immediately shuddered, squeezed her chest, grabbed the rope with her left hand, and pulled hard, bringing the Waterfox with her to the edge of the cave.
Squeak squeak squeak! Puff puff puff!
The water fox was gripped tightly and went berserk, its sharp mouth making tearing noises as it ripped at He Fei's blue cloth clothes. At the same time, it kept spitting out a yellowish liquid, but because it was wrapped in its chest, the liquid did not sting its eyes.
The water fox struggled desperately in her arms, squeaking incessantly. He Fei smiled and reached out to catch it.
But the moment my hand touched the water fox's extremely smooth fur, it broke free of its restraints and darted like an arrow to the other side of the cave.
At this moment, the little fox also saw this creature of its own kind, which actually wanted to harm its master. It was tired of living.
So it quickly jumped out of its space and chased after it.
What's wrong with the little fox? It feels like the little fox is guiding it.
Following closely behind the little fox, He Fei discovered that the water fox had disappeared into a low thicket of bushes, which was extremely dense and quite different from the others.
He Fei was overjoyed and looked at the little fox.
