Chapter 41: The Wolf and the Sheep
"Let's go up a little bit first, so we can take a closer look at where the water is. ”
After all, Zheng Xin doesn't have a cheat like Ning Fei, he can check it in advance through his pet, and he can only choose other methods.
Although it was already very close to the water source, Ning Fei had already determined from Xiaoqing that the amount of water in this river was not large, so there was no obvious sound of water flowing.
It is precisely because of this that Zheng Xin has no way to judge where the water source is.
If you want to see the mountain clearly, you have to stand high, so Zheng Xin wants to climb higher so that it is convenient to observe the surrounding situation.
"Listen to you, I look at the one in front of me, there is a small mountain bag, I should be able to see clearly. ”
Ning Fei pointed ahead, on the mountainside, in a raised place, and gasped.
After all, the two of them have been walking for two hours, and they are both a little tired, and Ning Fei's physique is better than that of the girl.
The reason why he refers to that mountain bag is precisely because he can feel that when he climbs that mountain bag, he can basically see the river.
"Wait a minute, I'll see if I can hear the water. ”
Zheng Xin said, took a stone knife to clear a flat ground, and then the whole person half-squatted, and wanted to stick to the ground with his face sideways.
"You wait. Ning Fei hurriedly wanted to pull Zheng Xin up.
"I'll do this kind of thing. ”
Ning Fei had already thought about it, no matter if he heard it or not, he just needed to say that he heard it.
At the same time, he was also sighing to himself, why didn't he think of this method just now.
"Your hearing is not as good as mine, and you can't judge, you have to believe me, as a road idiot, I go up the mountain by experience and hearing, or I'll come." ”
Zheng Xin said, knelt down again, put his ear on the ground, and began to listen.
Ning Fei didn't stop him this time, if he was replaced by someone else, he could still pretend to be one, but Zheng Xin was here, and he really couldn't help it.
After all, the two know each other too well, if they say that they heard it, and Zheng Xin listens to it again, it will be exposed.
In this way, Zheng Xin can only be allowed to continue.
"I didn't hear any water, it seems that either we are far away or the current is not strong. ”
After a while, Zheng Xin stood up and said with some disappointment, while wiping the mud on his face indifferently.
"Wait! Don't move. ”
Ning Fei hurriedly shouted, looking at Zheng Xin, who was looking at him with blank eyes, Ning Fei had no choice but to wipe the mud off her face with the back of his hand.
"Hee-hee, have you wiped it clean?" said the girl, shyly.
"It's a little bit, but it's okay, just wait to find water and wash it." Ning Fei smiled dumbly, he would know that he cared, what he was thinking just now.
"Okay!"
Zheng Xin raised her cat-like face and looked at Ning Fei's expression, her mood suddenly improved, and she said happily: "Then let's go now, shall we?"
"Let's go, then. Ning Fei nodded, and the two continued to move forward.
"Let's go, let's go up to the mountain bag in front. ”
Zheng Xin looked at the jungle in front of her, there were trees of all sizes everywhere, if she was allowed to come here alone, she might not even be able to tell the direction, but fortunately she had Ning Fei with her.
"Follow me. ”
Ning Fei took the girl forward, and the terrain was much higher in the advance of the two, and the distance from the mountain bag was getting closer and closer.
Ning Fei was about to burst into a puff when the girl grabbed his arm and stopped.
"What's wrong?" Ning Fei wondered.
"Ning Fei, there is an animal footprint here. ”
Zheng Xin walked over with a solemn face, looked at it carefully for a while, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's okay, it's okay, it's not a carnivore. ”
Ning Fei had already hurriedly asked Xiaoying and Xiaoqing to check around, if there were really large animals, he really didn't dare to build a shelter here.
Hearing that it was not a carnivore, Ning Fei also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Can you tell what kind of animal it is?"
"It's supposed to be a goat, but there's more than one here. ”
"Can you see that?"
Ning Fei squinted his eyes and looked at Zheng Xin with a little surprise, not knowing when she learned these skills.
"Hmph, do you think that I have gone up the mountain to pick mushrooms for nothing in the past few years, and there are people in the village who raise sheep, so it is naturally easy to distinguish. ”
Zheng Xin was rarely arrogant for a moment, and then said happily.
"It seems that I was right, the goats also need to drink water, and they are in the vicinity, mostly because the water source is nearby. ”
Ning Fei rubbed the girl's hair and said happily along.
"Since the water source is nearby, what are we waiting for, let's go up the mountain. ”
Zheng Xin shook his head, looked down at the direction of the goat's footprints, stood up and said, "Don't go up, let's follow the goat's footprints, we should be able to find the water source soon." ”
"Okay, you say"
Ning Fei followed the footprints and walked in front, and the girl followed closely behind.
"Hey, it's a lot easier to walk here. ”
As Ning Fei walked, he found that the trees around him were not so dense, and he also knew that he was not far from the water source.
was about to take Zheng Xin over with him, but at this moment, Xiaoying suddenly came with news.
"Stop. ”
Ning Fei suddenly stood up and raised his hand to signal Zheng Xin to stop.
"What's wrong? Did you find something?"
Zheng Xin asked in a low voice, his whole body shrunk back, and his head looked forward from the gap between Chu Feng's arms.
"You stand here, I'll go over and take a look. Ning Fei admonished, and walked forward cautiously.
The news from Kitty Eagle just now really surprised Ning Fei, on the hillside, there was a lone wolf, but fortunately the two of them didn't go up just now.
Otherwise, with his current strength, it will be dangerous.
"What the hell is going on?" Zheng Xin asked with a little worry.
After Ning Fei confirmed through the eaglet that the lone wolf had left, he took a few steps forward and pointed to another footprint on the ground. Said in a deep voice.
"There are wolves here, and those sheep should have been chased by wolves. ”
With the way the two of them are now, it is really dangerous to encounter a wolf, and he must warn the girl.
"Really a wolf?"
The girl suddenly became nervous, and hurriedly checked the footprints, but she kept looking around at this time, after all, it was a wolf, and the girl was still worried, and they suddenly appeared.
After a while, the girl breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately, it should be a lone wolf, only one, otherwise we will be really in danger." ”
"Haha, one, that's fine, what if we kill this wolf? When the time comes, the goats will be our prey, think about the goat's fur, we don't even have to worry about winter clothes. ”
He already knew that the lone wolf had left, so naturally he was not so worried, and deliberately laughed.
The staff of the program team said before that it is not illegal to hunt any beast on Shifang Island, as long as you have the ability to hunt any beast.
"Go aside, this wolf should have left, let's make sure where the water source is. ”
Zheng Xin glared at Meimu, knowing that Ning Fei was joking, but he still couldn't hide his worry.
"I'm just kidding, let's go, find water. ”
Ning Fei smiled, it was indeed a joke now, but after a while, it would not be a joke, as long as he caught a large animal, this island would be basically safe.
