The guy sitting on the ground drank Zhang Tie's water bottle without politeness. Zhang Tie didn't care. He looked at the guy gasping for air after drinking the water. Zhang Tie discovered that this guy seemed to be a little younger than he had just guessed. It was just the dirt on his face and the beard that hadn't been shaved for several days that made him look a few years older. He was probably in his early twenties. Please visit...

When taking the empty water bottle, Zhang Tie asked, "Can you have something to eat now? This should help you regain your strength!"

The guy nodded, stretched out his hand and touched himself. When he saw the guy taking out a piece of compressed dry food from a small leather bag on his waist, Zhang Tie stopped him, "You'd better eat mine. The calories of compressed dry food are not high, and eating that thing has no effect on meat. Can you sit up alone now?"

The guy nodded, put his hands on the ground, and struggled to sit up. The action of sitting up caused his legs caught in the animal trap to move. A thin layer of cold sweat broke out on the guy's forehead, but he still gritted his teeth and remained silent.

Seeing that this guy had already gritted his teeth and sat up, Zhang Tie nodded secretly. A guy who can run around alone in Wild Wolf Valley in the middle of the night is really tough.

"Sit down, I'll get you something to eat!" Zhang Tie turned around and walked towards the bamboo cage where he was carrying Giant Wolf dried meat. Zhang Tie turned around When he got up, the man sitting on the ground suddenly sharpened his eyes. He glanced at the dagger that Zhang Tie had thrown beside him, and then he looked at Zhang Tie with a look that was full of scrutiny and vigilance. E looked it over. Zhang Tie's age, height, build, clothes, weapons, and the backpack carrying a sleeping bag, everything about Zhang Tie Nothing escaped the man's eyes. After taking all these things into his eyes, the man blinked. He seemed to have thought of something, and then breathed a subtle sigh of relief, and the vigilance and scrutiny in his eyes disappeared.

Zhang Tie, who turned around to get the food, had no idea that the man behind him had already had many thoughts running through his mind just now.

Giant Wolf's dried meat is packed in a schoolbag-sized food box made of bamboo that Zhang Tie can carry around his waist. This kind of food box is also used in outdoor Survival Trial One of the necessary equipment is made by the girls at Wild Wolf Castle using bamboo and reed strips. It is very effective. Although Zhang Tie can enter and exit Castle of Black Iron at any time. But Zhang Tie doesn't want to look too special or different, so Zhang Tie still carries some basic equipment and food with him, even in the wild, if it is not necessary. Zhang Tie is not willing to go in and out of Castle of Black Iron at will, increasing the risk of exposing his biggest secret, and carrying these things, Zhang Tie also feels that it is a kind of exercise for himself.

Zhang Tie brought over a piece of smoked meat jerky from Giant Wolf. The man was not picky or polite. He ate it all and after eating the jerky, the man's spirit and condition improved significantly after resting for a few minutes.

"Thank you, you saved my life this time. If it weren't for you, it would be difficult for me to survive here until tomorrow!" Although he was still a little weak, the man looked at Zhang Tie seriously with a pair of light blue eyes, "Please allow me to know the name of my savior!"

"My name is Zhang Tie!"

"Students who are undergoing trials at Wild Wolf Valley?"

"Yes!" Zhang Tie glanced at this guy curiously. He didn't think it was strange that this guy knew his identity as a trial student. Now there are trial students everywhere in Wild Wolf Valley. It's not a secret. "What's your name again?"

"My name is Salwei!"

"There are not many people as unlucky as you!", Zhang Tie looked at the animal trap on Salwei's feet, "How are you, have you regained some strength now? I can't open this thing by myself. If you let go and let the animal trap close again after you open it, you will suffer the consequences again. It seems that you have tried it yourself..."

A hint of embarrassment appeared on Salwei's pale face, "This thing requires about level five strength to open, and I'm still a little short..." Salwei tried it twice last night, but the result was the same as Zhang Tie said. If you don't have enough strength to forcefully open this thing and then let go, it will have no effect at all except making yourself suffer twice more.

"There are too many Prospectors who come here to Moon Grassland to hunt Gold Wolf and pick Gooseneck Grass. I don't know who set up the animal trap here!" Zhang Tie looked at Salwei sympathetically., "Are you also here to hunt Gold Wolf and pick Gooseneck Grass? Why did you come to Wild Wolf Valley? There are no Gold Wolf and Gooseneck Grass here..."

"It's dark, and I'm a little unfamiliar with the surrounding terrain..." Salwei, who was slightly stunned, answered in the tone of Zhang Tie.

Zhang Tie doesn't doubt it. If it weren't for these two things, how could there be any Prospector who would be willing to come to Wild Wolf Valley and Moon Grassland to pick up wolf dung? Bruce said that Moon Grassland has recently come here with a lot of Prospector., this Salwei is probably one of those Prospector. Based on Zhang Tie's life experience, he did not realize that in the sentence just now, Salwei actually intentionally avoided his first question. Zhang Tie only thought that Salwei acquiesced.

After resting for a few more minutes, some blood returned to Salwei's face, and then Salwei nodded to Zhang Tie, indicating that he was ready.

"You really don't need to take a rest?" Zhang Tie asked worriedly.

"No need, it should be fine if the two of us come together this time..."

"Okay, let's strive for success..."

There is a row of round holes on the two zigzag-shaped bite steel bars of the animal trap. This design is not only to reduce the weight of the animal trap, but also to make it easier for people to open the animal trap. Since Salwei has said that there is no problem, Zhang Tie will not say anything more, Zhang Tie picked up the animal trap with his hand, turned Salwei's feet in a different direction, and raised his knees, so that the two of them could use force at the same time. When both people's fingers were inserted into the round holes on the two zigzag-shaped interlocking steel bars of the animal trap, the two people looked at each other and nodded together.

"I'll count one, two, three, let's come together..." Zhang Tie said.

Salwei nodded and took a deep breath.

"One... two... three... start"

The two people violently exerted all their strength, and the basin-sized animal trap began to fully open under the strength of the two people, and the saw teeth biting Salwei's legs also began to leave Salwei's calves.

The moment the saw teeth of the beast clamp were pulled out from the wound on Salwei's calf, Zhang Tie felt Salwei's body tremble. The strength of Salwei's hand weakened, and the bite force of the beast clamp on his hand suddenly sank. Zhang Tie quickly shouted, "Hold it. Try harder..."

Zhang Tie blushed, but Salwei's face became paler and paler. Beads of sweat appeared on the foreheads of both of them at the same time. The huge mouth of the beast trap slowly opened again, and the angle gradually became wider.

"It's now..." When Salwei's calves could be completely pulled out of the animal trap, Zhang Tie did not need to remind him, and he mustered up the last strength. Salwei's legs retracted, and they were freed from the huge mouth of the animal trap. Then the two of them released their hands almost at the same time, and the animal trap "stuck" again, and they bit together tightly.

In just a short while, the two of them sat on the ground. They gasped for breath together. The bite force on this animal trap was really too strong...

As soon as the animal trap left Salwei's calf, the wound torn open by the saw teeth began to bleed again, but the color of the blood was already a little darker. Zhang Tie tore open a section of Salwei's pants. He found that the lower half of Salwei's calf was swollen like a carrot and was as black as a glossy black. Zhang Tie poked a piece with his finger and found that Salwei had no reaction at all. Salwei also discovered this situation. He tried it himself and found that he could no longer feel any pain in the calf below the wound of the animal trap. He naturally knew what this meant, and his face couldn't help but change horribly again.

"If you don't take care of your calf quickly, the back may be amputated..." Zhang Tie said solemnly to Salwei.

"You will handle it..." A glimmer of light lit up in Salwei's eyes, and he asked Zhang Tie eagerly.

"I heard someone say once before that during the treatment process, you will encounter broken bones and wounds, which may be very painful. I don't know if you can bear it..."

"Come on..." Salwei gritted his teeth.

"Well, you have to hold back. What is more important than bandaging the wound at this time is to circulate the blood in the upper and lower parts of the wound first and let the bad blood flow out, otherwise the wound may become completely necrotic..." Zhang Tie is not very sure about this method. Tang De once told him that this is the only way when there is no other way. But it is the first time to do it, and Zhang Tie has no experience.

Salwei nodded seriously, so Zhang Tie pinched the part of Salwei's calf below the knee with both hands, and squeezed it toward the wound like a cow's nǎi...

Zhang Tie just exerted a little force on his hand, Salwei's eyes bulged, and after a scream, he yelled, "Wait a minute..."

Zhang Tie looked at him and stopped...

Salwei gasped violently and said a little embarrassedly, "Can you find a stick for me to bite..."

Thirty seconds later, Salwei had a stick found by Zhang Tie in his mouth. Seeing that Salwei was ready this time, he nodded, and Zhang Tie's hand continued to move.

This time, Salwei didn't scream anymore, but just like a fish that was thrown onto Stone, its whole body straightened up and began to sway and twitch.

Anyway, it was not him who hurt, and it would kill him even if he hurt like this twice. Zhang Tie was still a little hesitant at first, but later on, his movements became more and more agile, and his strength became stronger and stronger. Within a few minutes, the color of the blood flowing from the upper part of Salwei's calf wound had begun to return to normal, and Salwei's whole body really looked like he had just been fished out of the water, and his whole body was soaked with sweat.

"Are you okay?", Zhang Tie felt that Zhang Tie had stopped, and Salwei, who just felt like he had come back from hell, asked Zhang Tie energetically.

"Okay..." Zhang Tie clapped his hands, and a smile of relief appeared on Salwei's face.

"The preparations have been completed, and now we will officially start..." Zhang Tie just finished saying this, and found that Salwei rolled his eyes and fell backwards, "Ah, why did you faint..."

The nerves are too fragile! Zhang Tie shook his head. Still minding his own business, he began to help Salwei regain the feeling in his calf. This first step was still to eliminate the dirty blood in the calf. Only by removing the dirty blood After the blood is eliminated, fresh blood can flow in, and Salwei's calf can regain its senses and be preserved. What the fresh blood brings is fresh energy and nutrients that can rejuvenate the calf muscles and nerves...

The dirty blood can be removed by massaging and squeezing the cow's nǎi. However, the wound Salwei was pinched by the animal trap is on the top and the calf is on the bottom. The dirty blood will not flow, just like a pool of stagnant water. After one night, it may have condensed in the blood vessels of the calf. It will be more difficult to remove it from the bottom up. Thinking of Tang De's teachings, Zhang Tie took out the dagger and opened two medium-deep wounds on Salwei's calf along the direction of the muscle fibers. Then he massaged and squeezed Salwei's calf. With Zhang Tie's efforts, the black blood began to flow out from the wound on Salwei's calf.

The squeezed out dirty blood was black at first, then purple-black, and then purple-red. Slowly, it began to return to its normal red color. Salwei's swollen and shiny calf was as black as a carrot. After Zhang Tie's troubles, after the dirty blood was completely eliminated, the swelling slowly disappeared, and then the color slowly returned to normal.

In the end, Zhang Tie took out the Golden Sore Medicine he had brought and applied it on Savile's calf wound. Salwei woke up faintly after being stimulated by the medicine. When Salwei woke up, he opened his eyes and saw Zhang Tie was busy working on the wound on his foot, but there was a slight pain in the lower part of the calf that had lost all feeling. Salwei almost shed tears. For the first time, he discovered that being able to feel pain was a wonderful thing.

Twenty minutes later, Zhang Tie was back on the road, but compared with an hour ago, Zhang Tie now had an extra companion - the unlucky Salwei.

Salwei was weak and embarrassed, tapping one foot, holding a branch Zhang Tie found for him with one hand, and holding Zhang Tie's neck with one hand. The two of them just walked slowly toward Wild Wolf Valley and Walking to the handover area of Moon Grassland, Salwei said that he had several companions near Wild Wolf Valley near Moon Grassland, and Zhang Tie just had to send him there to join his companions.

Since everyone has been saved, Zhang Tie naturally cannot leave Salwei who is still unable to act at this time. In the spirit of a good person who will do his best to the end and send Buddha to the West, Zhang Tie also took a bite. Ya, after carrying all his luggage, agreed to Salwei and send him to join his companions. According to Salwei, the destination of his companions was only three to five kilometers away from the destination he chose.

As long as Salwei is delivered, it won't take long for him to come back - Zhang Tie thought of this, so he just thought of getting familiar with the surrounding terrain.
