Chapter 889: It Wants Me to Live
The summer breeze that awakened in the cave has no precise concept of time.
He didn't know how long he had been asleep, but it should have been at least 2 days since he was separated from the bagpipes, because it was getting light outside again.
The wound showed signs of infection, the knife wound turned outward, red and swollen, and the surrounding skin was painful.
As for the penetrating wound on his chest, he had already given up on the examination, and even if he lifted the tight clothes now, he could not disinfect it, so it was better to stiffen it.
....
Although he looks embarrassed now, there is still something to be thankful for in the predicament, that is, he has somehow made a good friend.
That's right, it's the original owner of this cave, the big gray-black wolfdog.
Judging by the dog's current performance alone, the owner of this cave has changed, and there is no doubt that he himself has become the owner of this cave, and at the same time the owner of this dog.
"Siha, Siha~"
The big wolf dog stuck out his tongue and leaned next to Xia Feng, but now he was in no mood to respond.
The remaining half of the little boar had obviously begun to rot, and in order to prevent attracting mosquitoes and flies, Xia Feng gritted his teeth and picked up his arm to throw the lump of meat out of the hole.
As for the fresh hares that the big wolf dog brought back, he didn't have much appetite for them.
"Eat it yourself."
"Woo, woo."
Xia Feng leaned weakly into the cave and touched the huge dog's head in front of him.
"I'm sorry to rob your home."
"Woo~"
"Leave me alone, eat by yourself, I won't live long, and if my friends don't come to me, I'll die in a few days."
Animals can't understand human language, but dogs can.
Dogs are different from wolves, aside from predatory ability and habits, the biggest difference between dogs and wolves is that they are very afraid of loneliness.
Obviously, this big wolf dog has no owner, it has been living alone near this cave, and although it has been broken into the "kennel" by strangers, it is obviously more happy than afraid.
"Slip, slip~"
The big wolf dog licked Xia Feng's face, and seeing that Xia Feng didn't react, it left the hare and ran outside from the hole again.
....
The rain outside the cave was still heavy, and after regaining some strength, the summer breeze moved to the stone at the entrance of the cave to drink some rainwater.
Hydration is more important to him than food, and if the rain stops, it will be difficult for him to drink water again.
After drinking the water, Xia Feng lay flat in the dry area of the cave again.
Time passed with difficulty accompanied by severe pain all over his body, and according to the current trend, the infection of the wound would become more and more serious, and he would definitely become weaker and weaker.
...
In the evening, it was dark outside and the rain stopped.
When the rain stopped, the cave began to become damp and cold, at least until the sun rose tomorrow, and the cold would be difficult for him to survive the constant fever.
Late at night.
Xia Feng's whole body was shivering coldly, and in a half-dream, he could only curl up as much as possible, but as long as the range of movement was slightly larger, it would involve an inflamed wound, which was very uncomfortable.
Finally, a warm and soft object leaned into his arms in the darkness, and the furry touch relieved the tormented heart.
Leaning against this source of heat, the shivering of the summer wind gradually stopped, and finally fell asleep.
....
I don't know how long it was, but it was getting bright outside.
"Slip, slip~"
There was a hot and wet licking sensation on his cheeks, and Xia Feng opened his eyes in a daze, and he saw a huge dog head.
Unconsciously, he had become accustomed to the company of the big dog, and at the same time he knew that it was the big dog that warmed him with his body temperature when he was asleep.
As soon as the brain woke up, the inflamed wound immediately came with sharp pain.
Xia Feng inhaled in pain, but still managed to squeeze out a smile, put his weak palm on the big dog's head and touched it.
"Are you worried that I won't wake up?" 118
"Si~Si~Wang!"
Looking aside, he suddenly saw a lot of things placed next to the big dog at this time.
There are dead fish, bitten duck eggs, branches with leaves, unknown plants, and fruits attached to plants.
In addition to this, there are even a few potatoes with tooth marks.
Seeing these things, Xia Feng almost burst into tears.
Obviously, these things were brought back like big wolf dogs.
During the day and night he was unconscious, the big wolfdog went to catch fish, duck eggs, and plants, and as for the potatoes, he must have gone to a nearby farmhouse to steal them.
Because he doesn't eat hares, the big wolfdog uses his limited intelligence to take back all the types of food it thinks it can eat.
..
Looking at the food piled up in the cave, Xia Feng became a little dazed in an instant, and his mind jumped, at this moment, he actually experienced a feeling that he only knew what he meant before, but he couldn't empathize.
That's what it's like to be helped by strangers when the infected are helpless, sick, and everyone wants you to die.
At this moment, he truly understood how important the existence of Black Feather was to those desperate infected.
....
The big wolf dog did not regard him as an enemy, but regarded him as a master in the company of loneliness, and this feeling was far more pure than the human heart.
In the eyes of the big wolfdog, it just wants its owner to live, without asking for anything in return, just to make him better.
The corners of his eyes were a little moist, and looking at the big wolf dog sticking out his tongue innocently, Xia Feng's already somewhat pessimistic mentality changed.
He has saved many people, and he understands the desire to save others, and he doesn't want the big wolf dog to keep guarding him who is out of breath, and he doesn't dare to imagine the bagpipes being lost when they see his corpse.
There was a look of survival in his left eye.
He wants to live, not only for himself, but also for the people who are trying to save him!
"Thank you."
Touching the big wolf dog's head, Xia Feng sat up with his body propped up, and stretched out his weak palm to the pile of food.
....
Xia Feng first caught the fish of unknown species.
Compared to wild boar meat and hare meat, which are difficult to swallow, fish meat should be easier for the body to absorb and digest.
The fish didn't smell bad, and it was supposed to have been caught by the big wolfhound late last night.
"Boom!"
Simply scraped the fish scales with the Shenyue knife, opened his mouth, and Xia Feng bit the fat fish body.
"Crunch, crunch, crunch!"
The tender fish is much smoother than other meats, and it can be easily swallowed after a few chews.
In order to avoid parasites and internal organs, which have a chance of being poisonous, Xia Feng only eats the outermost meat of the fish, although it is not much, but the nutrients and energy provided are enough for him.
After eating the fish, he picked up another yellowish fruit of an unknown plant.
This thing looks like a small mango, with a smooth surface and a fresh smell.
Most of the fresh plant fruit food is non-toxic and provides scarce water, which is important for him when he can't leave the cave to find water.
Opening his mouth, Xia Feng took a big bite on the fruit.
"Click, click!"
This "mango" should be ripe, juicy, sweet and delicious.
....
Looking at Xia Feng's gulping of food, the dog next to him grinned and stuck out his tongue, as if he was very happy.
"Wang, Wang!"
A few "Wangwang" sounded in Xia Feng's ears, and was automatically translated into "Is it delicious?" ”
Xia Feng swallowed all the flesh in his mouth, wiped his mouth, and gave a thumbs up.
"It smells so good!"
