Chronicles of Primordial Wars

It's raining.

It's really raining.

It was about the same time as Shao Xuan predicted, only a few seconds apart.

coincide?

Or is it really as predicted by the knot?

After washing the bird droppings on his hands with rainwater, Shao Xuan walked back into the cave, took out the straw rope in the animal skin bag and chopped it for a while, looking at the rain curtain outside the cave, thinking, do you want to try again?

It's raining already, so what's next?

Why don't we try to see when the rain stops.

Shao Xuan recalled the state when he tied the rope just now, what he was thinking when he tied the rope, then picked up the rope, closed his eyes, put aside other distracting thoughts, and thought about the time when the rain stopped.

Waiting for the hands in his mind to appear again, Shao Xuan observed it and found that the knotting action of the hands was not only different from the previous chaotic knotting, but also different from the one just now.

There is a play!

Shao Xuan carefully observed the movements of the hands, and in his own hands, the straw rope was tied in the same way.

When Shao Xuan broke away from his consciousness, the feeling of collapse came again, his vision was dark for a moment, and his brain was aching for a while, and it would be better after a while.

It seems that this method of knotting a rope for divination is indeed very expensive.

Looking at the new conclusion typed in his hand, Shao Xuan interpreted it and found that this time, it was not as detailed as before, and the meaning was a little vague, but it was roughly inferred.

The rain will stop before noon.

Even if there is no sun, Shao Xuan can guess the approximate time. I'm used to the days without clocks, and I can guess at the sky even if there are dark clouds all over. This is an essential skill for hunting in the mountains.

It was noon, and soon. Just wait and see.

Shao Xuan put the knot aside, ate another piece of cold and hard barbecued meat, and rested against the wall of the cave. Recover as soon as possible.

When Shao Xuan felt that the time was about the same, the sound of the rain outside the cave also decreased. But it didn't stop.

go to the cave,

Shao Xuan looked outside, the thick clouds in the sky were dissipating, and between the gaps in the clouds, there was still sunlight shining through on this vibrant mountain forest.

The rain subsided until it stopped completely.

The sky, the dark clouds dissipated. The sun is just right.

Once is a coincidence, twice is a coincidence?

Shao Xuan believed even more that the inheritance recorded on the Long Live Leaf was the divination of knotted ropes.

Since the knotted notes were gradually replaced, Shao Xuan seldom saw such a method again, even when he was traveling far away, he never thought that he would get such a thing. I just don't know which witch of which tribe left this. There is no trace of the tribe's totems.

After the rain and the weather, Cha Cha flew out to catch a not-so-big beast and returned to share it with Shao Xuan. After eating. Chacha rested next to him, while Shao Xuan stayed in the cave. His lost physical strength had almost recovered. Looking at the straw ropes left in the animal skin bag, he thought about it and cut a section with a stone knife again.

Not in a hurry to leave, Shao Xuan intends to try to tie the rope a third time. After finally tying the rope successfully, he plans to do more research.

He wanted to predict what he might encounter next, but. The third time was not so smooth, and it was still a chaotic section. tied to the fingers.

Come again!

fail.

Come again!

Failed again.

...

Half of the straw rope in the animal skin bag had been used up, and Shao Xuan put down the mess in his hand. Rest against the wall.

How can it fail?

Could it be too difficult?

Chacha was beside him, watching Shao Xuan create one after another grass balls, and then slammed his head against the wall of the cave. It doesn't quite understand Shao Xuan's thoughts, but it just feels that humans are indeed complex animals.

When his stamina recovered again, Shao Xuan thought, maybe the things he just thought were too difficult to figure out, so let's do something simple. If it's not easy to get it done, don't try it today.

Picking up a piece of straw rope again, Shao Xuan thought about where to go next.

When the knot was finished, Shao Xuan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the knot that finally succeeded. Was it really too difficult just now? A simple replacement did the trick. Don't be too ambitious, let's take it slowly.

The next place to go is naturally the place where Chacha wants to tell him that he found the stone, which is really not difficult.

However, when Shao Xuan interprets the meaning of the knot and compares the directions given by Chacha, he finds that the two directions are not the same.

If the knot is successful, it should not be knotted indiscriminately. So, does the direction of the divination make more sense to Shao Xuan?

In order to understand, Shao Xuan made some adjustments and tried again with a piece of straw rope. The result is the same as before.

Shao Xuan looked at the direction indicated by the knotted rope and thought about what was there that was more important than stone.

After a little thought, Shao Xuan made a decision.

"Chat, let's go there instead of looking for the stone." Shao Xuan pointed in a different direction.

Chacha has never been to the direction Shao Xuan pointed, but it doesn't matter, he is quite excited to go to an unfamiliar forest area.

It took a lot of physical strength and time to knot the rope. Shao Xuan decided to set off tomorrow. At the same time, he also took time out of the hole to find some vines for ropes in stone boxes, in case the straw rope was not enough by then. He used so many straw ropes to tie the rope, and he had to prepare some more in case he needed it.

the next day.

The recovered Shao Xuan and Cha Cha left the cave together and went in the direction indicated by the knot.

There is a river running through the forest, the river water is a little green, and occasionally some animal activities can be seen around.

Shao Xuan did not walk by the river, it was dangerous, and he was at least twenty to thirty meters away from the river.

On the gravel beach by the river, there were some shiny things, and Shao Xuan wanted to pick one up and have a look.

However, as he bent over to pick it up, there was a sudden screeching sound that cut through the air.

Shao Xuan has been guarding the surrounding, after hearing the movement, he turned his body and dodged to the side.

Snapped!

Where Shao Xuan was standing, a water arrow passed through there and hit a big rock hard.

Water arrows?

Shao Xuan's eyelids jumped, where did the water arrow come from? River fish?

Before Shao Xuan thought about it, another water arrow shot out of the river. Although it was water, it was powerful and extremely fast.

The second water arrow was dodged by Shao Xuan and hit a tree nearly 50 meters away from the river bank, leaving a hole directly in the trunk.

Immediately following, the third and fourth water arrows also chased after Shao Xuan and shot.

However, because of these consecutive arrows, Shao Xuan also saw the source of the water arrow. It was indeed from the river. There was a bulge floating on the river, which was part of some kind of creature in the water.

Shao Xuan didn't want to waste time here. After avoiding the water arrow, he left the river bank. The deeper you go into the forest, even a fish in the river cannot be underestimated. Big fish have the threat of big fish, small shrimp have the ability of small shrimp, if you are not careful, you will stay here forever.

It's just that Shao Xuan didn't understand what was going on in the depths of the perilous mountains and forests. (To be continued)
