?? My cousin listened to my analysis, found a contradiction, and asked me, "Since both groups of people have spent the night here, how can you conclude that they have not bumpered together? You see, as you said, Xia Xia and the others hid in the middle of the night and arrived here the next night to stay overnight. And Zhao Chong and the others also found that they were missing the next morning when Xia Xia and the two hid up the mountain, and then they started to search, found the mark, and then found this place in half a day. Shouldn't it coincide at these two points in time! Both groups of people spent the night here on the same night, right?"

Uh-

This woman's thinking ability is too meticulous. I haven't even found myself conflicted yet.

When Tian Qiuqiu, who was next to him, heard this, he thought that his sister had fallen into the tiger's mouth, which had become a fact, and his face turned pale with fright. Stared at me helplessly, for my explanation.

I said, "This ...... Let me first correct the previous words, it should be Zhao Chong's group of people, they didn't set off to chase people the next day! They found that there was no one the next day, and it was impossible to find out the movements of Xia Xia and Xia immediately, it should be near the camp, in a radius, they searched all over the place, and they couldn't find it, and then they finally found the mark and determined the direction. It should have been the third day before they started to catch up!

I looked down at the ground and said, "I say that with evidence. These traces on the ground prove that it is impossible for two groups of people to stay here overnight at the same time! You see, here these two fires and ashes are next to each other, but they are clearly demarcated. If two groups of people were to burn the fire here for the night on the same night, that is to say, when Xia Xia and Kexin fell into the hands of Zhao Chong Ma Wang, would it be necessary for them to burn the two fires next to each other like this? These two fires were obviously burned at different times. ”

"I'll tell you my experience, we don't normally start a fire on the ashes of the same fire that has been completely extinguished. One is because it's dirty. Second, these plant ashes are the products of the wood after the wood is completely burned, and if it is not tight, it will no longer have the effect of fueling combustion, on the contrary, it will extinguish the fire! It is not conducive to fire. That's why Zhao Chong and them have to start a new one on the side!"

"And, you see, some of these sticks I found by the fire, and some of them from the grass on the side. Look at it, and see if there's any difference? There are four or five of them, which are cut out of sticks of wood. The other two are cut from bamboo. This different material also indirectly shows that the two groups of people did not spend the night here at the same time. The wooden roast sticks were used by Zhao Chong and those people, and the two bamboos were used by Xia Xia and them. ”

Su Wu asked at this time: "Then why are there only two beds on this side?"

I said, "That's a good question." Speaking of these two beds!" I leaned down and opened a few banana leaves on top of one of the beds to show the women, and said, "See, on this bed, there are banana leaves on top, and there is another layer of fern leaves at the bottom. ”

Then I lifted the banana leaf from the other bed and said, "You see, there is nothing under this." ”

"What does this mean? My guess is that the bed made of fern leaves below was originally slept by Xia Xia and Kexin. The two of them, one vigil and the other went to sleep, alternately, so that the bunk was very small, and only enough for the body of one person. ”

And later, by the next night, Zhao Chong and others also chased here, the four of them, in order to save trouble, there was a person, directly on this bed, spread a few banana leaves, spread much wider, and used it as a bed. The other has to go to the other side to find a flat place to make a bed. So on that bed, there are only plantain leaves, and there are no fern leaves underneath!"

After listening to this, my cousin couldn't help but nod her head and praise, and said, "Okay, young man, the analysis is still the way." It's not in vain that I didn't read serious textbooks when I went to school, and secretly watched so many Sherlock Holmes and Conan or something underneath. ”

What Sherlock Holmes and Conan?

I've been in that kind of special unit, and I've done thrilling and careful work. If I don't have this ability of logical analysis, can I be looked at by others, and can I stand in it?

My cousin was troubled again: "Then you said that Zhao Chong has a total of four people, why only have two beds, even if one person is always on duty at night, then three of them have to be laid out?"

I smiled: "Those two women have already returned to Zhao Chong Ma Wang, * they have already been sold, do you think they will sleep separately if they are one-on-one? Just like you will kick me away when you sleep at night?"

When my cousin heard my last sentence, she was very dissatisfied, and said to Su Wu and Tian Qiuqiu: "Ah Wu, Qiuqiu, look what this guy said! Tonight, the three of us will ignore him and let him sleep by himself." ”

"Uh-huh. Su Wu and Tian Qiuqiu joined together: "Let him sleep in the future, don't rely on us!"

I pouted: "The three of you are willing to squeeze together, then squeeze, I will sleep in a big bed alone, spacious and comfortable!"

My cousin said: "It's so cold at night now, let's squeeze together to warm up, you can lie on your big bed and see if it's cold to death for you." ”

Seeing that Tian Qiuqiu also had a smile on her face, after listening to my analysis, she was no longer so worried about her sister.

I tidied up the camp and spread the two pieces of canvas on the ground as a bed. Our conditions are much better than those of the previous two groups, and we don't need to sleep on banana leaves.

By this time, the women had gone to the neighborhood to collect enough firewood and returned. I made a fire for them, asked them to boil water, and went outside to wash and peel bamboo rats in the mountain stream.

There are two bamboo rats, both of which were found on the road and dug up. Round and fat, three or four pounds apiece, at first glance, there is a lot of fat, which makes people drool.

After a long day's journey, we were all hungry.

The mountain over there was eaten too cleanly by six or seven people in Xia Xia, and the prey could not be found at all. When we arrived in this area, there were more birds and animals.

The dry food we carried was also eaten in the past two days, so it was convenient for us to start hunting.

This kind of bamboo rat likes to eat bamboo roots or thatch roots, and its nest is easy to find in places where thatch grows on the mountain. Although it was hiding underground, it didn't bother me, so I dug directly into the hole with a sapper shovel until it appeared.

However, this kind of gadget has a very fierce temperament and will make a sneering sound to frighten people. When I was catching, I was accidentally bitten, and it hurt me for a long time.
