Chapter 173: Wagging the tail and begging for mercy
Although Wang Ping's yard has collapsed, the house is still fine, so the rest of our big guys are full of joy at this moment.
A few men stood guard at the door for a few women, and a few of them neatly changed their dry clothes, and then came out to hang their soaked clothes on the side of the campfire to dry.
Wang Xiaoxiao and Xu Wei carefully dried Douding and Douding's mother with shabby clothes.
The two little monkeys also relaxed a lot at this time, and Pea's mother was sitting next to the bonfire with Peeding in her arms.
It made several women laugh.
It seemed that last night's rush had all turned into memories in an instant.
After the women changed their clothes, Xiao Qiang pushed a few of us into the house again.
"The clothes we found on the ghost ship before, they are all plus-size, you should be able to wear them, go and change them, these soaked clothes are also good for baking and roasting, I just saw that many of those herbs have been broken, but I should still be able to distinguish it, let's drink some herbal soup hot in this pot to ward off the cold, and those bell peppers are put in to borrow the flavor." ”
I looked at Xiao Qiang's ruddy little face and nodded: "You can arrange these things, let's go change clothes first." ”
Xiao Qiang pushed me into the house with a smile, and soon followed Liu Jiaojiao out to get busy.
The trouble was that all our firewood had been soaked by the heavy rain, and the fires were very small, so the pots in which we were heating the soup cooked very slowly.
By the time we had dried our hair and changed our clothes, the women were laboriously chopping the wood into chips so that they could be dried quickly.
Chen Jian looked at it and frowned: "When will we be able to eat in this way?" I think it is better for me to go down and pick up some branches, after all, the branches are relatively thin, so let's dry them quickly." ”
Wang Ping nodded, and the two of them went out together, and it didn't take long to drag back a lot of branches, and several people were roasting branches and splitting wood, and they were busy chopping wood, and their whole bodies were all hot.
By the time we had all the campfires up, the pot was already boiling.
The fragrance is fragrant, and Liu Jiaojiao put the sea cucumbers and shrimp that we found before and the sea shrimp that have been ground into powder, and the taste is even fresher to make people drop their tongues.
Chen Jianjian went to get the bowl, and we all had a big bowl of soup, and we were all sweating, and our expressions were completely relaxed.
Some of the wooden beds and skins in the house had been soaked by the rain, so they had to be dried before they could be reused.
Fortunately, the two rooms inside us were still dry, and we let a few women go to rest first, while the men took turns to keep watch outside.
After all, we don't know if there will be aftershocks after this earthquake has passed, so we have to be careful.
Waiting until the evening, I had already woken up in shifts, Chen Jiangang wanted to go to sleep, and there was a commotion at the bottom of the mountain.
When I looked up, I saw that it was Bai Wei's group back.
But they were clearly more embarrassed than we were, and a few of them were covered in mud, their faces were pale, and their feet were limp as they climbed up the mountain.
Wang Ping was sitting by the fire, adding firewood to it, and when he saw Bai Wei coming back, he didn't say a word, turned around and entered the house.
I sat by the fire, Bai Wei glanced at me, the whole person was lost, and turned to see their collapsed house.
Several male colleagues were louder than women at this time, and they had already screamed.
"Oh my God, this house is collapsing, where are we going to sleep?"
"It's over, I see it's still cloudy, I'm afraid it's going to rain, it's over......"
Bai Wei didn't say anything, and several female colleagues immediately came to their house, with expressions of wanting to cry or not.
"We still have food in this house, this has collapsed like this, can we still find it?"
Listening to their noisy and shouting, I didn't bother to talk to them, I just thought about getting some greens and putting some wine in the evening, so that I could sweat after drinking.
After all, we don't have many herbs, so we can only use these soil methods.
Bai Wei's gang quarreled for a long time, and finally one of the male colleagues came up to me with his face licked and looked at the pot we were setting up next to the campfire and licked his lips.
"Four, Brother Sihai, you see, our house has collapsed, and now we don't have dry firewood in our hands, it is estimated that if we continue to toss like this, we will all get sick, do you think you can give us two mouthfuls of soup first?
I didn't say anything, and I didn't pay any attention to him.
The male colleague paused, smiling all over his face.
"Well, let's show you the fire, we'll help you bake this dry wood, and then you go to rest, do you think this is okay?
This male colleague had been to the gringo camp with me before, and although he hadn't been in contact for a long time, he was quite okay.
And he can be regarded as a very knowledgeable member of their group, after all, he also knows to come and wagging his tail and beg to exchange with me......
I glanced at the colleagues standing next to Bai Wei's pile of collapsed houses, all of them were indeed pitiful, if they didn't take them in now, it was raining this night, I was afraid they would really not be able to survive.
Although I have a deep prejudice against Bai Wei, these female colleagues are pitiful after all.
"In that case, then drink some soup first, and then when you have drunk the soup, you will split all the dry wood, and when it is dry, throw it into the campfire, and you may well come and keep warm. ”
When the male colleague heard that I agreed, his face immediately burst into cheers, and then he turned around and wanted to call someone, but turned his head to look at me again.
I nodded: "Let them come together, the women can go into the house and change into clean clothes, the men will roast outside, there is not much soup left in the pot, you can go down the mountain and get some water to mix it later, you can also take a sip, and you can also keep warm." ”
The male colleague was very excited and thanked me repeatedly, and then called all the other colleagues over.
Wang Xiaoxiao in the house heard the movement and went out to take a look, the expression on his face was a little obscure.
However, the few of them still called the female colleagues into the house, changed their clothes, and served them hot soup.
I looked around at these colleagues, but found that Bai Wei did not come.
The male colleague who was chopping wood for us seemed to notice what I was looking for, so he leaned over to me with an embarrassed face.
"Mr. Bai may be a little embarrassed, I guess he should be hungry too, do you think I can send him a bowl of soup too?"
I didn't say anything, but Chen Jian on the side came out and saw the male colleague and sneered.
"It's not uncommon for Mr. Bai to come over and wagging his tail and begging for mercy with us, so what kind of soup do you still send to him? Even if you send it to Mr. Bai, I'm afraid I won't eat it, I think you still don't have to eat your own leisure, maybe Mr. Bai has a way to find something to eat, and we don't look down on the soup Bai Zong has left. ”
I looked at Chen Jian's appearance, and I couldn't help but laugh in my heart, this kid has really been getting more and more skinny recently.
However, Bai Wei didn't come by himself, and there was no need for us to rush to bring him soup, anyway, only we knew if we were hungry or not.
