Chapter 270

It’s raining . It’s really raining .

Compared with the time predicted by Shao Xuan, it was only a few seconds apart .

Coincidence? Or is it really the same as the result predicted by the knot?

After using the rain to rinse off the bird poop, Shao Xuan walked back into the hole . He took out the straw rope in the animal skin bag and cut it again . Looking at the rain outside he thought to himself, why not try it once more?

Since it’s already raining, why not predict when the rain would stop .

Shao Xuan thought of his state when he made the knot; he was thinking about what he was thinking when he was tying the knot . Then picking up the rope again, closing his eyes and letting go of other distracting thoughts, he thought about the time when the rain stopped .

Finally, the knots appeared in Shao Xuan’s mind . It was inconsistent with the previous one . Shao Xuan carefully observed the movements of the hands in his mind . In his own hands, there appeared a knot that was similar to the one he had in his mind .

When Shao Xuan finished the knot, the feeling of fainting came back . There was a moment of darkness in his eyes, and his brain was hurting for a while . Shao Xuan looked at the new knot in his hand; Shao Xuan interpreted what the knot meant .  

The rain will stop before noon .

Even without the sun, Shao Xuan could estimate the approximate time when the rain would stop . As a hunter, he could guess what time it would stop raining .  

Noon, not too long from now . I merely have to wait and see .

Shao Xuan put the knot next to him, munched on a piece of chilly barbecue, and rested against the wall . He needed to restore his strength as soon as possible . When it was almost noon, it was drizzling outside . But it didn’t stop raining .

After going back into the cave, Shao Xuan looked outside; the thick clouds of the sky were dissipating . The sun was shining through the gaps between the clouds . The rain gradually decreased until it stopped completely . The sky and the dark clouds scattered . The sun was out .

The first time is a coincidence . But is the same thing happening two times a coincidence?

Shao Xuan believed that the leaf recorded different knots . So is it technically a weather book? Even when he was traveling, he had never heeded a weather book . He didn’t expect he would get such a thing .

He didn’t know which one of the members of this tribe left this behind . There was no trace on the totem . After the rain, Chacha flew out and grabbed a not-too-big beast and came back and ate it with Shao Xuan . After eating, Chacha rested next to him in the cave .

His physical strength had almost recovered . Looking at the remaining straw ropes in the animal skin bag, he contemplated about it and decided to cut it again with a stone knife . Not in a hurry to leave, Shao Xuan intended to try tying a knot once more . He planned to study more .

He wanted to predict where the stone he needed to find is, but it wasn’t so smooth the third time .

He tied the knot

Tried again!

Failure .

Tried again!

It failed again .

……

The straw ropes in the animal skin bags have almost been used, and Shao Xuan put down a mess in his hand . Rested beside the wall .

How can I fail?

Was it just a coincidence the first two times?

Chacha was next to him, watching Shao Xuan create one grass knot after another and then hit his head against the wall . It didn’t completely understand Shao Xuan’s thoughts . It just thought human beings were really fascinating animals .

When his physical strength was restored again, he picked up a straw rope and tried again .

When the knot was finished, he looked at the knot . It was successful . Shao Xuan felt a sigh of relief .  Was it just because it was excessively confusing? The place he needed to go next was a place where he can find the stone .

However, when Shao Xuan interpreted the meaning of the knot and compared it with the direction given by ChaCha . He found the directions pointed in two different directions

To have a better understanding, Shao Xuan made a slight adjustment and tried again with a straw rope . The result was the same as before . Shao Xuan looked at the direction predicted by the knot, thought about what was more important . After a little thought, Shao Xuan made a decision .

“Hey, let’s not go to the stone first, let’s go there instead . ”

Shao Xuan pointed to the opposite direction while talking to Chacha . The direction pointed by Shao Xuan was a place he has never visited, but it didn’t matter . It was quite thrilling to go to a strange forest area .

Because of the consumption of physical strength and time, Shao Xuan decided to start traveling tomorrow .  

Shao Xuan and Chacha, who regained their spirits the next morning, left the cave together and marched in the direction indicated by the knot . There was a river running through the forest . The river was a little green, and some animal activities were occasionally seen around .

Shao Xuan didn’t walk by the river; it was too risky . He was at least 20 to 30 meters away from the river . By the river, there were some things there, and Shao Xuan wanted to take a look . However, as he walked over, there was a whistling sound that cut through the air . Shao Xuan had been aware of his surroundings . After perceiving the movement, he shifted his body and dodge to the side .

Snap!

A water arrow came charging at that place where Shao Xuan was standing .

Water arrow?

Shao Xuan’s eyelid rose .

Where did the water arrow come from? Was it from a fish by the river?

It didn’t wait for Shao Xuan to think . A second shot was shot again from the river . Although it was water, it possessed fierce power, and the speed was extremely fast . The second water arrow missed Shao Xuan .

The third and fourth water arrows were shot .  From the river, there was an object that was holding something .  

Shao Xuan didn’t have time to investigate . After he had avoided the water arrow, he left the river bank .  ‘The deeper you go into the forest, the more dangers there are . Even a small fish is a threat . ”
