Chapter Seventy-Four: The Important Thing Is to Help Others
The outside of the cave is a mess of branches and weeds, only when you walk in and look can you find that there is a cave that can be lived in in this deserted place, which saves them a lot of trouble, and now Yanchi's troops are behind, and the most important thing to worry about is to be found by them.
Leshan walked in front and turned on the flashlight to shine into the cave, the cave is not very big, barely able to accommodate more than a dozen people to sit down and rest, there is no way to lie down. But a group of big men don't care about this, it's already a gift from God to have a place to catch their breath after a day's journey.
Le Shan was about to go inside, but was stumped by a private army: "Brother Le, let's go in first, and you will go in last." ”
After saying that, the two private soldiers next to them walked inside, their lights illuminated the cave as if it were daylight, and every inch was carefully checked, and soon they found that there was nothing here except stone and earth, and only nodded to the outside after making sure it was safe.
Bai Ye followed Le Shan and walked in, walked to the edge of the cave and sat down, Xia Wei sat next to him and didn't say anything, just silently looked at the jungle outside.
This position is reserved for Leshan by the private army, if something happens, the outermost person is the easiest to escape, although there is a risk, but this is indeed the best position.
Xia Wei's identity is the highest in this group of people, and naturally she is also sitting in a safe position, as for Bai Ye, he thinks that it may be because he saved this group of people.
It's just that he is very curious, why such a suspicious person as Leshan would be willing to give him the position that is easiest to survive, which is a bit unbelievable. However, if he can't figure out the questions, he will put them aside for the time being, so as not to add unnecessary troubles to himself.
The lights were soon extinguished, and everyone did not dare to make a fire, so several private soldiers took out a cigarette from their pockets, put it on their noses, sniffed it, and put it back, and closed their eyes and went to sleep.
Bai Ye couldn't sleep thinking about that strange task, he looked at the outside environment and planned the most convenient escape route for himself if he was attacked, and by the way, he took out a finger-length jerky from his pocket and put it in his mouth to chew.
This is his last piece of jerky, after eating it, it is equivalent to having no food like this group of private soldiers, but he still eats without hesitation, this jungle he has never had a lot of unknown dangers, even if he is twice as much physical fitness as ordinary people here, he does not dare to support it here, and if he does not eat here, there is no combat effectiveness.
The sound of squeaking, crunching, and clacking was amplified countless times in the quiet cave, and the private soldiers who had been sleeping opened their eyes one after another.
After a tiring day, everyone forgets about hunger, but when someone is next to you and is gulping down something, the human craving for food will be released.
Gollum~!Gollum~!
For a moment, the sound of swallowing saliva and the gurgling of the stomach blended together, and the huge hunger beat everyone.
Xia Wei took out a jar of chopped chili peppers from her pocket and looked at Bai Ye's jerky again: "This is my last bottle of chili peppers, and I will exchange half a piece of jerky with you." ”
Bai Ye's eyes lit up after taking a look, and he hurriedly took out half a can from his pocket, unscrewed the cap and dipped it in some chili peppers to eat, and the taste was really much better.
This is still the bottle he threw on the ground in front of the private army, after the private army left, he picked it up again, although this thing is very spicy and salty, but the taste is excellent, he also plans to take this half bottle back to Ling Shan and them to taste.
Seeing Bai Ye's actions, Xia Wei knew what the other party meant, unscrewed the chili pepper herself, and sent it into her mouth with a branch torn from outside the cave.
Bai Ye never thought of himself as a gentleman, or that the refugee area didn't give him a gentleman's chance at all, and taking care of himself first was the foundation of survival.
If there is extra food, he may change it, but he doesn't have any psychological burden for not giving Xia Wei food, not to mention that this woman is much more dangerous than it seems.
Le Shan sat aside and covered his stomach: "Li Ergou, do you still have anything to eat, we will buy it with you with the money, and we can buy your half bottle of chili peppers." ”
However, this time Bai Ye shook his head resolutely: "I don't have anything to eat, and I can't sell this half bottle of chili." But give me five hundred pieces each, and I can tell you where you can find food. ”
Everyone's eyes lit up, even Xia Wei on the side sat up straight, and they took out money one after another and put it in front of Bai Ye.
Bai Ye took the money and counted it, and suddenly took out two sheets from it and threw them to the private army on the side: "What the hell are you fooling me with two pieces of paper?"
That private soldier's eyes widened, how can you see it when it's so dark, this eye bulb is made?!
Le Shan kicked him lightly: "Do you still want to eat, hurry up and take out the money." ”
Leshan is not interested in the food this time, he wants to learn how to find food from Bai Ye, the ghost knows how long he will stay in the mountains, learn to find food so that he will not starve to death, even if the other party offers a thousand, he will not hesitate to pay this money.
The private army does not talk nonsense and quickly pulls money out of his pocket.
After receiving the money, Bai Ye didn't say much, and he found that Leshan and Xia Wei paid the money the fastest, this kind of person was the easiest to distinguish his own situation, and the chance of survival was also the greatest.
He walked out of the cave, and Le Shan and Xia Wei followed on both sides. He walked over to a bush and searched for it, and found a plant uprooted, with oval-shaped fruit on its roots, and he handed it to the two of them.
"You remember that the leaves of this plant, the fluffy fruit cannot be eaten, and it will cause abdominal pain. If you don't have fluff, you can eat it raw, and you can eat a few more to fill your stomach. ”
Le Shan and Xia Wei were like two good students watching and listening carefully, for fear of missing a little, but they didn't notice that Bai Ye's hand paused a little when picking the fruit.
At this time, Xia Wei took out three more sheets worth one thousand from his pocket and handed them to him, saying, "You tell me in detail what you should pay attention to when looking for this kind of food, and if you have any doubts in the future, I will continue to pay you." ”
After receiving the money, Bai Ye said: "If you look for food in the wild, you can't eat plants with white sap, you can't eat mushrooms, you can sometimes find water in the forks, and sometimes you can find snakes." Try not to eat too much raw meat, as your body needs more energy to digest the food. ”
The two listened carefully, and Xia Wei handed out another three thousand: "Is there anything to pay attention to when eating this fruit?"
Bai Ye thought about it carefully: "It tastes better when you peel the skin and eat it." ”
Leshan: ......
Xia Wei: ......
Xia Wei had a headache, how boring she was to ask such an idiotic question, and it cost three thousand yuan......
But Bai Ye is very happy to receive it, and he earned 10,005 in a short period of effort, if there are more private troops in the mountains, he can consider being a guide or something, it doesn't matter if the money is not rich, the important thing is to help others.
