Chapter 713 Shelter (two chapters in one)(1/2)
Facing the enemy that suddenly jumped out, Lin Li reacted very quickly. He turned sideways to avoid the opponent's attack, suddenly raised his leg, and kicked the enemy in the abdomen, sending him flying.
"boom."
The huge force caused the attacking enemies to fly out instantly, draw a parabola in mid-air, and hit the ground heavily.
"Isn't it a strange beast?"
Lin Li looked at the creature that was kicked away by him and could not detect any spiritual energy in it.
"Roar……"
The tiger-like creature climbed up from the ground, howling in pain.
Lin Li's kick just now seriously injured the tiger. It must have caused internal injuries.
If it was a strange beast, Lin Li would be interested in killing it and taking it into the mysterious island to feed the magical little tree.
Now this tiger was just an ordinary creature, which immediately made Lin Li lose interest.
"Boom..."
Thunder exploded, the cloudy sky flashed with bright lightning, and the terrible thunder was deafening, as if it was ringing in people's ears.
"Roar……"
The sneak attack just now failed, and he was severely injured instead, which made the tigers who attacked Lin Li fearful.
It dared to roar a few times, as if to say harsh words, and then ran to the side of the dense grass without looking back.
"Run away now?"
Lin Li looked at the escaping tiger in surprise, muttered to himself, and then ignored it.
"Roar?" The tiger paused before getting into the grass and looked back at Lin Li.
It was quite confused now as to why this terrible human didn't come to chase it. Then it stopped thinking about it and plunged into the grass and disappeared.
"Boom..."
"call……"
"Shashasha..."
The dark clouds had spread to the sky above Lin Li's head, and when the bright silver-white electric light appeared, it illuminated a large area like forked branches.
The gentle breeze that originally blew occasionally became much stronger.
The flowers, plants and trees of the Zhou Dynasty were violently swayed by the wind. Some brightly colored flowers were scattered on the ground, and wild fruits hanging on the trees were also shaken and fell down.
"Look at the weather, it's very likely to rain. I have to find a place to stay..." Lin Li looked at the increasingly bad weather and made a judgment in his mind.
Then, he looked around, looking for a place to escape the violent wind and rain.
The current location is deep in the valley, surrounded by a very spacious area with high slopes, depressions, patches of woods, and lush bushes.
After scanning the surrounding environment, Lin Li found that there was no place to hide from the violent wind and rain.
Although there are various camping equipment on the mysterious island, tents can be set up on the spot.
But now that the wind is so strong, once a tent is set up on the spot, when the strong wind and rain come, the tent will definitely not be able to withstand it for long before it will be destroyed.
You have to find a sheltered place to set up your tent, and without such an environment right now, it's really a headache.
Fortunately, there are always more solutions than difficulties. As long as you use your brain, you can always come up with a solution.
Lin Li's eyes fell on a high slope in the distance. He quickly ran over and came to the back of the high slope.
"It's a good place. Not only is it leeward, but the space recessed inward is quite large. It's enough space to set up a tent."
Lin Li originally just thought of digging a concave hole on the back of the Gao Po with a shovel to protect it from wind and rain.
Unexpectedly, when we arrived at the place, there were already ready-made ones, so we didn’t have to spend any effort digging holes.
"This place is on the lee side anyway, so the wind won't blow. How about I stop setting up the tent?"
Lin Li took out a bunch of camping equipment from the mysterious island and looked at the tent bag. He was a little too lazy to put up the tent, so he changed his mind, put the tent away, and started playing with other things.
It's now noon, and the hunger in my belly is coming as expected.
"Gululu..."
Lin Li felt his stomach growl, stopped what he was doing, raised his hand and patted his stomach to comfort him.
"I know, I'll have lunch right away, don't rush me..."
Lin Li put the table and chairs away, then took out some tableware and put them on the table.
Then, he took out the ingredients and started preparing his lunch.
With the passage of time, the side effects caused by Lin Li's previous consumption of the superpower fruit have weakened a lot.
Therefore, he does not need to prepare as many ingredients for lunch as before.
"In two or three days, my food intake should return to normal." Lin Li thought to himself as he marinated the cut meat.
When the ingredients were prepared, a fireball instantly appeared at Lin Li's fingertips.
When the small orange-red fireball landed on the pile of firewood, it ignited the firewood within a short time.
After the fruit wood is ignited, a faint fragrance spreads, and it smells quite good.
Lin Li put the marinated mutton skewers on the grill and cooked other things.
…………
After the clear sky was shrouded by dark clouds, it became completely dark. It felt like the evening when the sun was about to set.
"Boom..."
Thunder explodes from time to time, making the creatures living in this world quite uneasy.
Zhao Xiaoya, whose hair was tied into a ponytail, looked at the dark clouds above her head that were flashing silver-white electric light, and said to Wu Qingfang beside her with some worry.
"Miss, the weather is getting so scary! Will something happen?"
Seeing how worried Zhao Xiaoya was, Wu Qingfang smiled and comforted her, "It's okay. When we were exploring the ancient city, the weather with constant thunder every day was no better than the current situation."
After hearing what her young lady said, Zhao Xiaoya felt that it was indeed true, and her worries immediately dissipated a lot.
"That's right! Comparing this, the weather is not bad now..."
Guard captain Chen Zhiyuan looked at the sudden change in the weather and kept frowning.
His first priority is to ensure Wu Qingfang's safety. Now that the weather is like this, it is most likely a sign that something bad will happen in this ruin space.
"Next, I have to be more vigilant. Once something bad happens, I have to protect the young lady from harm as soon as possible."
Wu Qingfang chatted with Zhao Xiaoya for a few words, and then came to Chen Zhiyuan's side.
"Miss." Chen Zhiyuan was thinking about something. When he saw Wu Qingfang coming to him, he stopped his divergent thoughts and said.
"Now the weather has changed suddenly. Look at the situation, it is very likely that there will be heavy rain. We have to find a place first and prepare for shelter in advance."
Wu Qingfang had the same idea in her heart. After hearing Chen Zhiyuan's suggestion, she nodded, "Uncle Chen, that's what I meant, but there seems to be no suitable place to take shelter from the rain around here."
After saying that, the two of them looked around. As Wu Qingfang said, there was no suitable place for a group of people to take shelter in the surrounding terrain.
The experienced Chen Zhiyuan did not suffer from this problem for a long time. After thinking about it for a while, he came up with a solution.
"It doesn't matter. There is no place suitable for shelter from the rain. We can build one ourselves... It will still be some time before it rains. Let's seize the time to build a shelter from the rain."
Then, Wu Qingfang and his group quickly ran towards the woods in the distance.
If it is just raining, run into the woods and there is a certain probability that you can find a place to hide from the rain.
But now, with thunder bursting in the dark clouds in the sky, and thunder thundering when it rains, it would not be a wise decision to run into the woods.
Wu Qingfang and his group ran toward the woods, but they did not run into the woods.
There is an open space in front of the leafy woods. The terrain of this place is flat with a slight slope and is not prone to water accumulation.
"The weather is getting worse and worse, and it is very likely that there will be heavy rain in half an hour.
Everyone, go cut down some trees and come back quickly..." Chen Zhiyuan said to his men.
"Yes." The guards nodded, then picked up their weapons and ran towards the woods not far away.
When Chen Zhiyuan saw that Wu Qingfang was about to follow him, he quickly said, "Miss, just leave this kind of rough work to them, I don't need you to do it."
Wu Qingfang smiled and replied, "Uncle Chen, more people can help each other.
As you just said, a heavy rainstorm may come in half an hour, so setting up shelters as soon as possible is a top priority."
After saying that, she turned her head and looked to her side, "Xiaoya, come with me to help cut down the tree."
"Okay, miss." Zhao Xiaoya responded, and then followed Wu Qingfang who ran towards the woods.
"Miss..." Chen Zhiyuan wanted to persuade Wu Qingfang not to do such rough work, but when he saw that the other party had already run into the woods, he stopped talking and shook his head with a look of relief.
"Compared with other young masters and young ladies in the family, the eldest lady is really different..."
When the guards who were cutting down the tree saw Wu Qingfang running in, they all had surprised expressions on their faces, and at the same time, they stopped moving their hands.
"Don't be stupid. Didn't you hear Uncle Chen say it's going to rain soon? Hurry up and chop down the trees!" Zhao Xiaoya reminded at this time.
