Chapter 8 - 08. Catching furry and sudden test!

Zi Zen walk toward the fallen tree and start sharping it into a simple slide. He put the bear first then he put the boar on the wood. Slowly, he push to the train.

/After some time/

"Hup, hu, huh, hu, finally arrive. Ahhhh, I curse for my laziness that make me lack of exercise. When I got time, I only go to play game. Now I get tired easily over thing like this."

Zi Zen sit and rest for a while before start dissembling the boar and the bear.

First, he dig the head and found crystal in each of their head. He keep it in his pocket. Then, he remove the fur and keep aside for further use. Meat is cut into smaller pieces for food, internal part is separated to use as bait and bone is use as weapon after further processing.

First, he bring the meat to the furnace to cook it to well done. While waiting, he start sharpening the bone. Depend of the shape, large long bone can be use as handle and be convert to hammer when tie with stone he pick up outside, middle size can be use as axe if the shape is suitable and smaller bone can be use as knife.

After the meat are cook, he bring the meat to be smoked at the chimney. He swap the meat he previously left there and put the new meat on it. The meat is then keep aside in the train corner on a mini table. Of course, the table is made with clean cut wood.

For the fur, it time to make into my sleeping bag, bed, curtain, floor mat, and pillow. For bed and pillow, I need more grass than I expect. I shall go and pick up later.

After done half of that, the sky has darken. Wow, time sure flies. For now let do the rest first.

/During sleeping /

Tutu, sneak in and take 2 pieces of meat before running off with it. "Tu, tu, tu"

/After sleeping /

"Huarrr, such a nice sleep. Time to have my meal" Zi Zen walk

"Huh? Somehow some pieces is missing. Let count again. 1, 2 ,3 ..... There definitely lack of 2 pieces. Did I ate extra but I didn't notice it?

"No, I definitely feel something is stealing my meat. The meat is arrange neatly before, but now is messy. Impossible my sleeping posture is that bad until I kick the table. Time to make a trap to catch this thief."

I will seal all window to prevent it escape and only let one window open. But, the window will close itself after it trigger the trap I left there. Next, I will keep all the meat with me except few piece as bait. I will place a obvious trap here to outsmart it. Then, I pretend to sleep again when the time is right. Now I will continue making my fur bed.

/Night time/

Now is the right time to set my plan in motion. I will have my dinner, close all window except the one with trap. Then, now is wait time.

/After few minutes/

"Why, there nothing" I almost fell asleep. It warm and cozy in here.

/After half an hour/

"Zzzz, zzzz, zzzz" Zi Zen fell asleep.

A shadow is lurking by the window outside looking at Zi Zen.

"Tu, tu" It look at Zi Zen asleep and slowly climb into the train through the window. Then, it slowly walk to the meat on top of the table. It jump on the table and see some meat under a cover support by a stick. It look around the trap and confirm it only can be trigger by knocking the stick down. It want to get the meat, but by doing so, it will trigger the trap with its body. It feet is too small to do so.

It look around the train interior and found some stick, then it jump down and walk toward the wood stealthy. It hold on the stick using it mouth and move back to the table. Then, it push the meat out of the trap using the stick.

"Tuu, tuu, tu" In a low voice, saying it did it. It put the stick down and walk to the meat and chomp it down. The moment it chomp it, it feel a string attach to the meat. Realize it has fallen into a trap, it can't help but freak out.

"Tuuuuuuu"

'Pom' (Sound of window close)Too late, the string attach to the meat trigger to pull the wood by the window to shut and trap it inside. It quickly spit out the string then jump to the window and attempt to open it but it too heavy for it. Then, it see Zi Zen has woken up by the noise and quickly hide under the driver seat.

"Huh? What sound is that? Disturb my sleep." Zi Zen look around and realise the window is shut and the meat is missing. "Hehehe, finally. I get it. It must be somewhere in here." He look around the train and spot a white thing shaking under the driver seat. It the furry butt. He slowly walk to the furry and when in distant, he grab it to prevent it from escaping.

"Tùûú, tůūů, tü" It struggle as hard as it can to escape from his grab. But how can the strength of it stronger than Zi Zen. It a futile attempt. Zi Zen lift the furry up while it still struggling.

Then, something happen, the control panel light up and shine a light to the furry and Zi Zen. Then, the crystal in Zi Zen fly out and absorb by the panel. Then, a hologram monitor show up from the panel. At the same time, the train interior start to light up and a light surround both of them.

"Ahh, the crystal"

"Initiate teleport"

"Location qualification test zone"

"Wait, what you just say?"

"Tu, tuuu"

Both of them disappear from the train.

---------

"What I just see just now? I could not believe my eye"

"Teleportation or spacial transfer"

"I not that blind, you granny. Of course I can see that. What I mean is the train achieve the what we consider impossible even with our current technology, magic and cultivation technique."

"It getting interesting, I know it that the train is not ordinary. As it was the only thing left intact in a underground where many junk metal lying around."

"That not junk. It a broken part of machine or structure of ancient relic. And I currently studying them."
