Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 15458

15456. Chapter 15456 Forest

Shi Jie felt a flash in front of his eyes, and then he found himself in a forest. In this forest, there were bursts of insect sounds, and the air was full of a damp smell mixed with rotting leaves, which was not very good.

Shi Jie immediately became alert. He had no spiritual energy at all. Although his body was much stronger than ordinary people because he was a cultivator and had practiced physical skills, and his defense was also very strong, the poisonous insects in the Seven Universe Realm were not vegetarians. If they really bit him, he would lose half his life if he didn’t die. Shi Jie didn’t want to suffer that. Of course, he didn’t want to embarrass Sheng Si. If people knew in the future that he was Sheng Si’s disciple, but died in this training, it would not only be embarrassing for him, but also for Sheng Si, so Shi Jie was more careful now.

He looked around. This time, because his spiritual energy was sealed, even his mental power was sealed, so he couldn’t open his space equipment, and he couldn’t take out any magic tools. He was now unarmed.

Shi Jie carefully looked around and found that there seemed to be no animals around, and there were no snakes on the trees. He was relieved. Then he looked around, and then he walked to the side of a big tree, and then broke off a branch from the tree, and then simply cleaned it up and turned it into a wooden stick. Now he has no other weapons, so he can only use this wooden stick first.

Shi Jie held a wooden stick in his hand, looked around, then he looked at the direction and walked forward. While walking, he carefully observed his surroundings and kept sweeping the ground back and forth with the wooden stick in his hand. There was no road on this ground because no one had been here for many years. In addition, there was a thick layer of leaves, and it felt very soft when stepped on. However, Shi Jie did not dare to take it lightly, because he knew very well that there might be a poisonous insect under each leaf, and he used the wooden stick to sweep the leaves on the ground, in fact, to alert the snakes, that is, to scare away the poisonous insects in advance.

Don’t think that poisonous insects are not afraid of humans just because they have venom. In fact, humans are definitely large animals in nature. Under normal circumstances, other animals dare not provoke humans. When those poisonous insects see humans, their first reaction is to escape rather than fight. Unless you want to kill them or their lives are threatened, they will bite you. Otherwise, they will not easily provoke you. Although poisonous insects are poisonous, these poisons are all synthesized by their own bodies, and synthesizing these poisons requires energy. Their only source of energy is food, and they hunt by poison, so they will not easily use the poison in their bodies. Because if they use their poison casually, they may not be able to hunt, which will increase the risk of their survival. Therefore, even if those insects act out of instinct, they will not easily provoke humans. Doing what Shi Jie did can at least scare away more than 99% of the poisonous insects.

Many people think that it is easy to find the direction in the woods, just look at the branches of the big trees and see how lush they are on each side. But this is actually wrong. In a primeval forest like this, there are countless trees, and it is very difficult for sunlight to reach the ground. In order to get sunlight, the plants here will try their best to grow taller. So you see the trees here, the short ones can only grow a few leaves, and absorb some sunlight from the gaps between the big trees. The branches of those big trees generally grow upward continuously, layer by layer, and are very dense, just to absorb more sunlight and try to prevent sunlight from falling on the ground. So if you want to judge the direction by looking at the density of the branches, it will almost never work in such a primeval forest.

However, Shi Jie was not trying to get out of the woods. What he needed now was to find other people. He knew very well that 100,000 people were thrown onto the island, and the distance between two people would not be too far. Although it was in the woods, not to mention being far away, even if they were only a few dozen meters away, you might not be able to find each other, so it was not an easy task to find a companion. Shi Jie walked forward slowly. After a few steps, he would knock on the tree trunk next to him. The sound was not very loud, but in the woods, it could be heard for a distance. If other people heard the rhythmic knocking sound, they would know that there were people around, and they would also make a sound at that time. This was the easiest way to find a companion.

However, this method was not agreed upon in advance, and Shi Jie did not dare to guarantee whether other people would understand it. However, he believed that as long as other people were not idiots, they would know what the sound meant, so he knocked while walking, hoping to get a response.

In this way he walked forward for about an hour, but still didn’t see anyone. Shi Jie looked at the surrounding environment and found that the environment here seemed to be all the same, nothing special, which made Shi Jie’s heart sink. Then he looked around, and finally he walked to a tree. He picked up a stick and knocked on the trunk a few times. This time he paid special attention and kept knocking in one place, so that there would be a piece of broken skin on the trunk. This was a mark for him. He was worried that he would get lost. If he was not moving forward, but kept going around in circles, it would be really troublesome, so he had to do this. You know, getting lost in the woods is very dangerous. You may be in a small area, turning in circles, but you can’t get out. So Shi Jie must make sure that he is not lost, so that he can move forward.

After walking a short distance forward, when Shi Jie arrived under a tree and was about to knock on the trunk, he felt something seemed to pounce on him from above his head. Instinctively, Shi Jie dodged to the side, and this dodged really allowed him to avoid a fatal blow. A small green snake flashed past his ear, and Shi Jie couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat. He knew very well that such a small snake must be poisonous. Once bitten by this little snake, he would be finished.

He immediately walked a few steps to the side, then turned to look in the direction of the little snake. The little snake was crawling towards him at a very fast speed. Shi Jie’s face changed slightly, but he immediately took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. Then he looked in the direction of the little snake, with the wooden stick in his hand ready to go. Just when the little snake swam to more than one meter in front of him, Shi Jie swept the wooden stick in his hand fiercely. This time it was very fast, and the little snake did not dodge and was swept away by the wooden stick. It flew more than ten meters away and finally fell into a bush and disappeared. Shi Jie breathed a sigh of relief, then he took a look at the bushes, then he turned and walked quickly in another direction. He had no idea of looking for the little snake and seeking death for it. With his current strength, it was not an easy task to kill the little snake, so he decided to leave quickly and not take the risk.

He walked forward for nearly a hundred meters before slowing down a bit. He then looked around, and this time he paid special attention to the trees. Although his spiritual energy was sealed, his eyesight was still very good. He did not find any danger and he breathed a sigh of relief. The reason why he was almost bitten by the little snake just now was because he had been walking in the woods for a long time and was a little slack, otherwise it would not have happened. Now he was alert again and would not be attacked by the little snake.

After walking forward for about half an hour, Shi Jie came under a tree, then he habitually picked up a wooden stick and knocked on the trunk a few times, then he held the stick and prepared to move forward. He no longer thought about whether he would get a response. He had not received a response for such a long time, so of course he thought that he would not get a response this time. However, surprises often happen inadvertently. He had just taken a step forward when he heard a few knocking sounds of wooden sticks on his left. Shi Jie was stunned, then he immediately stopped with a look of joy on his face, then he immediately walked back to the side of the tree and knocked on the trunk again. The next moment, there was a knocking sound on the left side as well. Shi Jie was sure that he had not heard it wrong.

He immediately shouted loudly: “That senior brother is here. I’ll go find you now.” After that, he walked towards the direction where the voice came from, with a hint of surprise on his face. You know, he has not seen anyone in the woods for a long time, and he is under a lot of pressure. This retreat is different. When you are in retreat, you know what you are doing and you will be very busy. And you also know that you are safe, so you are not afraid of loneliness. But it is different in this woods. The surrounding environment is very depressing, there are not many sounds, and you can’t see anyone. The most important thing is that you know it is not safe here and there is danger at any time. This is a completely different feeling from retreat, so Shi Jie has always been under a lot of pressure. Now he finally meets someone, of course he is very excited.

Not long after he spoke, a voice came from not far in front of him: “Don’t be anxious, be careful, this forest is very dangerous.” Shi Jie responded, and his pace slowed down a little. At the same time, he looked around carefully. After an incense stick of time, he finally saw the person. It was a short cultivator who looked to be in his thirties. From his figure, he was not a physical cultivator, but Shi Jie was still very happy. He immediately walked up quickly, saluted to the man and said: “Greetings, senior brother, my name is Shi Jie, hello.” He was very polite to the visitor, and he also saw that the visitor had a smile on his face. No matter what, in such an environment, it is a happy thing to meet someone like him.

The man also returned a salute to Shi Jie, and then said: “Junior brother, you are polite. My name is Xin Feng. I have been walking for such a long time and finally met someone. But to be honest, junior brother, you are really smart. You actually thought of knocking on the tree. When I first heard it, I thought I had heard it wrong, so I tried knocking a few times, but I didn’t expect to get a response. Good, that’s great.” When he said this, he had a smile on his face and looked really happy.
