Chapter Twenty-Four: Sleeping Outside
"Sister, wake up. ”
Wake up in a haze. When he opened his eyes and saw Kevin's face, he also looked like he had just woken up.
I don't know what motion sickness medicine he gave me, but I was still a little dizzy when I stood up, so I had to be helped out of the ball by Kevin. Kevin helped me sit down, and he began to pick up some leaves and twigs from the side and cover them over the ball. I looked around, and all but the trees were stones...... There are uphill and downhill, and you can feel that you are in a mountain. Shivering in the mountain wind, I gradually came to my senses. I searched back and forth, but I didn't find a big pipe.
"Kevin, where's that pipe?"
Kevin stopped picking up leaves and looked at me in surprise, "I didn't expect you to ask this first...... Pipeline...... No, it was a runway, and now it doesn't. ”
"Ahh
"If you, walking in the mountains, see such a ball, don't you think it's strange?"
I nodded understandingly.
Watching him completely cover the ball, passers-by might think it's a small dirt slope.
"Let's go, sister. Kevin picked up his duffel bag on the floor and walked over to me. I could feel the weight of this bag, and I wanted to help him carry it, but a cold wind blew, and I suddenly woke up with a cold war.
"Wait, where is this?"
"Do you remember asking? I thought you were sick and stupid. ”
I punched him hard: "I can laugh after such a big thing......"
His eyebrows flickered, trying to hide his uneasiness. "What's the matter, the sun is going down, we have to find a place with water, or we'll die of thirst. ”
"No, I ask you where is this?"
"General Mountain. ”
It is rumored that the General Mountain on the outskirts of City B is a general surnamed Liu in the previous dynasty, who led the whole army to resist the enemy bravely when resisting foreign enemies, and finally died heroically, and the whole army was annihilated, so this mountain forest was stained red with blood, and every autumn, it would be red all over the mountains. In fact, it is said that it is red with blood, but it is just a gimmick of the maple trees that cover the mountains. I swept back and forth, and sure enough, there were autumn leaves all around.
"That big pipe leads to General Mountain? Then we're safe now, right? But why didn't you see that big pipe just now, you already hid it?"
Kevin motioned for me not to speak yet, and then he sniffed with his eyes closed to the left before replying, "Again, that's a runway, not a pipeline." Isn't it amazing that the runway is gone?"
"How do you know where to go?" Seeing that Kevin had just sniffed around, he chose a downhill path, and couldn't help but be a little puzzled.
"Calm down and smell carefully, does the smell of the wind here be different from the one next to you?"
I stopped, sniffed several times, and shook my head in nothing.
"You don't usually climb mountains, and the air here smells of mud and dampness, like after rain. ”
I sniffed it a few more times, and sure enough, there was a faint earthy fragrance.
Kevin said as he walked, "In the mountains, there is usually water in valleys or depressions, and you listen, we can hear the sound of water now, which proves that we are about to arrive." ”
I looked at Kevin adoringly, and sure enough, in twenty or thirty minutes we were at a small stream. I walked over excitedly, and was just about to pick up the water to drink, when I was shivered by the biting water.
"Don't drink it yet! What should you do if you have diarrhea when you drink it, you delicate body. "I felt a warm feeling in my heart, because I had been cold before, so my body was more afraid of cold than ordinary people. He always took care of me in the smallest details. Kevin took out a small pot from his bag, "I knew that Lou Ye would forget to fill the water, but fortunately I came prepared." ”
He washed the pot in the stream, and then took half a pot of water and gave it to me.
"There is a flat land on the way we came just now, and I only have a sleeping bag here, not a tent, so my sister may have to wronged you. ”
"Spending the night here?" I was so frightened that I almost threw the pot out of my hand.
"The sun is about to set, and if you walk on the mountain road at this time, you may fall to your death. He said painlessly.
I looked up and followed him.
"Why isn't it right next to the river, it's flat too. ”
"If it rains, you can drown. ”
……
Seeing that he began to spread plastic sheeting on the ground, I asked with some concern, "What about ......that?" So there's no tree in the way, what if it rains? What if the sun is too big tomorrow morning?"
"In either case, you can bury your head in your sleeping bag, but if you're under a tree, you can be killed by a branch if it's windy. ”
"Why are you not so dead or so dead?" I angrily threw the pot on the ground. The water was splashing out a little, and I hurriedly stabilized it again.
"If you follow me, you won't die, and if you don't follow me, you won't have to. Is the bracelet still there?"
I nodded angrily.
He busily picked up some dead branches, piled them together, and found some stones to surround them.
"The bracelet is still there, what are you afraid of, it won't let you have anything to do. He waved my hand for help to pick up the stones, and I reluctantly walked over.
Finally, before we went down, we raised the fire, and he put the pot on a shelf with a few branches, and it looked solid.
"Cook you some hot water to drink, raw water may have bacteria. However, judging from the direction of the mountain, this creek is upstream, and the water should be fairly clean. He said as he handed me a compressed biscuit.
Tossed for a day, to be exact, I don't know exactly how long it was, it seems that it was night when I came out of the house, and now it's ...... It's night again...... So maybe after running for a day, it's normal to be so hungry. The cookies were eliminated in no time. For a person who usually only drinks drinks and does not drink water, he drank a whole half pot of water in this way, I don't know if it is because the stream here is sweet, or because he is too thirsty.
"Okay, you can say that. ”
Hearing my words, Kevin raised his hand and shook it. But soon he continued to pour water into the kettle, and asked without changing his face: "I don't know where to start, sister, you should ask the same." ”
"Why does that Chen Chong call you Xiaohan and Lou Yejing...... What do you ...... respect?"
"Jing Lian Kai...... "He took a piece of clothing and put it on me, I thought it wasn't obvious to shake, but he saw it, Kevin continued, "Lou Ye, my real name is Jing Lian Kai, Kevin is not my name......" He said and turned around and wiped his hands on his clothes before reaching out again, "Hello, my name is Jing Han Shi." ”
I was stunned for a few seconds before I came back to my senses and snapped his hand off: "Nervous! I didn't pass level 6 in English, and I thought it was an English name every day, and I was afraid that I couldn't pronounce it correctly!"
"You also saw it, we were hunted down! We were hunted down! Not incognito, could it be that Dafang told Chen Chong that we are still alive, and you came to arrest us?"
"No, not really......"
But two months after returning to China, he was discovered by him when he showed half of his face on TV. In the era of big data, there are no secrets. ”
"Right...... I'm sorry...... It's all my fault. ”
He looked at me with a smile and said, "My silly sister, it's only a matter of time before I am discovered, and I also volunteered to help Sister Cai at that time, I don't blame you." ”
"And what should I call you...... Kevin couldn't get it after all. ”
"Call me Hanten...... I'll call you Lingxi. ”
I glared at him and said, "Why don't you call me sister!"
"We have a lot to do in the coming period, for the sake of safety......"
"So?"
"So it's safer for us to pretend to be husband and wife, so that we can live together and prevent people from sneaking up at night......"
I picked up the wrapper of the biscuit in my hand and threw it at him.
"Why are you so fierce? It's not a big deal to sleep in a room, and I didn't say sleep in a bed. And it's not like I haven't slept ......."
"What do you say?! Say it again! Don't learn well at a young age!"
"Sister, didn't anyone tell you what it was like for you to be drunk?" he half-squinted and smiled like a scowler.
"What a drunken madness! I'm a good drinker! Don't divert the topic! Explain why you're here, why they're chasing and killing you! And have the heart to tease me, your father has been arrested by others! I can't be tortured!"
He sneered and lifted his upper clothes.
"What are you doing?" I hurriedly covered my eyes.
He took my hands away, one, two, three, four, five, six...... Six-pack abs...... There was also a scar from the chest to the stomach. He turned around, and the scars on his back, large and small, were five or six......
"Who hasn't been tortured? As long as you live, there is hope for life." He put the sleeping bag away and motioned for me to get in, "Why did I become Kevin, why did he become Lou Ye, I will tell you as it is." ”
