Chapter 179: The Awkwardness of Meeting
Father Li's voice came from the other side, "Have you forgotten that you are going up the mountain today?" Hurry up. ”
"It's only six o'clock, it's still early, and now the mountains are full of dew, why don't you go to take a bath?" Li Chen really didn't want to get up.
"It's not early, the sun rises at eight o'clock, and then it's not dew, but sweat! I've now packed my things and am waiting for you here, and that's it, hanging. ”
Li Chen listened to the "beep" sound from the mobile phone, a little speechless, and after putting it down, he looked at the wooden beam blankly for a while before getting up.
"Is something wrong?" Ye Jingting, who had woken up next to her, asked in a daze.
Looking at Ye Jingting, who didn't even open her eyes, she didn't know and thought she was talking in a dream, so she said softly: "It's okay, it's just that Dad told me to get up and go to the mountain with him, you can go to sleep." ”
"Yes, be careful all the way." Ye Jingting didn't move after she finished vaguely, as if she had fallen asleep, or maybe she was too lazy to speak.
Li Chen glanced at her funny, took a deep breath, stirred up the bed, lifted the quilt and turned over.
When Li Chen hurriedly washed up and came to his parents' house, it was already more than half an hour later, the sky was already slightly bright, and Li's father was sharpening the mountain knife in the yard.
After seeing Li Chen coming, Father Li scraped the blade with his fingers, nodded with satisfaction, and splashed water to wash off the stains on the knife before he spoke: "Why is it so late, the sun is coming out soon." ”
"Doesn't it take time to wash up, I'll go have breakfast first and set off immediately." As he spoke, he was about to go into the house.
Father Li glared at him, "What kind of breakfast, I'll go up to the mountain when you're done!" Grab a few fruits to eat on the road, and when you arrive, you can hunt game to fill your stomach. ”
Li Chen had no choice but to respond, who told Father Li that the initiative was now on him!
The two of them walked on the path outside the village while eating fruits, looking at the foggy water vapor everywhere, and the little dew drops hanging on the grass blades next to the path, Li Chen was very resistant to going up the mountain at this time.
Li Chen pointed to these flowers and plants: "Seriously, Dad, can't you wait until later to go up the mountain?" ”
Father Li naturally knew what Li Chen meant, and refused very resolutely: "No, just take a stick and beat it when you go up the mountain, besides, the road to Tianxian Lake has already been opened, and how much dew can there be." ”
In this regard, Li Chen no longer raised objections, and it was rejected anyway.
When he came to the bottom of the mountain, looking at the mountains in the clouds and fog, there was really a kind of eerie taste, Li Chen couldn't help but take out his mobile phone and take a photo and put it on his neck, with a paragraph: Brave the ghosts.
At this time, the words of Father Li, who was walking in front, came: "What are you doing, don't go quickly." ”
"Hey, come on." That being said, the footsteps are still motionless, the signal here is too poor, and the upload of the scarf is a bit slow.
After waiting for a while, the picture was successfully uploaded, and Li's father, who had been a distance away, stopped again and urged: "What are you doing, it will be difficult to walk when the sun comes out!" ”
Li Chen, who heard this, looked at the eastern sky, which had begun to brighten, and hurriedly withdrew his scarf, hurriedly took out the vacuum bag, loaded the mobile phone and the camera that he had brought over, and ran quickly towards Li's father.
After the two of them gathered, they plunged headlong into the white mountains, and the silence returned to the edge of the forest, as if nothing had happened just now.
Although the road up the mountain has already been opened, it is only a path of one or two meters with a knife. In addition, there are very few people going up the mountain, and a lot of the grass that has been pressed to the side has also been restored to its original position, and it is necessary to cut or remove it when going up the mountain.
After more than half an hour, Li Chen and Li's father's sleeves and lower half of their trouser legs were already wet, and they didn't dare to tie them up, otherwise they would be scratched by the blades of grass and itchy, which would be even more uncomfortable.
At this time, there was already a red glow in the east, and the weather began to get stuffy, needless to say, it was a great day today.
However, for Li Chen's father and son, it was torture, so they had to speed up their pace and march towards the mountain, passing by Luo Tianya without stopping, and directly heading towards the mountain.
After walking forward for a short time, there was a sound of footsteps in front of them, accompanied by the sound of "bang, bang, bang" in the grass, Li Chen and the two immediately stopped their steps, and put the mountain knife on their waists in their hands, and the two of them also got a little closer.
Li Chen regretted a little that he didn't bring the dog with him, otherwise he wouldn't have been so passive, and he didn't realize it until he got closer.
Under the nervous gaze of the two of them, the voice came to a place more than ten meters away, but because there was a bend in front of him, he didn't know what it was, and the mountain knife in his hand couldn't help but tighten.
The degree of chaos in which it is heard should be in groups, and it is not small. In line with this condition, Li Chen was only familiar with Taishan's group of wild boars, but the sound of his walking was very different.
When the two of them were ready to start, the sound finally reached the corner.
But soon, Li Chen's tense mood relaxed all of a sudden, but he didn't expect it to be a person! The crowd that came out one after another also explained why there were so many noises.
The person who took the lead on the opposite side was obviously startled by the two people who suddenly appeared in sight, and he was relieved when he saw that it was a person, but then looked at the knife in the hands of the two, and his relaxed mood became nervous again.
What comes to mind is, robbery! This wilderness couldn't be more suitable.
However, seeing that there were only two people on the other side, and then thinking that the local guide who took them up the mountain had a clay gun, he didn't worry so much anymore, and stood in place waiting for the sparse companions behind him to come.
And when the first part of the companions came, the leader gave them a silent gesture, apparently this is also a group of people who often show wilderness.
Li Chen looked at the group of people on the opposite side who were carrying a bulging mountaineering bag, and knew that they had spent the night on the mountain yesterday, and as for the appearance, he didn't see it very clearly, after all, although the fog in the mountains and forests was not as dense as when he went up the mountain, it had not been fully digested.
Li Chen and Father Li glanced at each other, put down their knives, and walked towards that side.
Unexpectedly, when the two of them left, the crowd in front of them took a few steps back, which made Li Chen's father and son inexplicable, so they simply didn't leave, but shouted over there:
"Hello, you are camping on the mountain, we are the villagers under the mountain."
The person who took the lead breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and his tone didn't look like he was going to rob, but he didn't dare to take it lightly, who knew if it was true or not, in case it was to coax them? Maybe there's a bunch of bandits hiding around here!
Thinking that they were not familiar with this person, it was better to wait for the guide to come over after the break, so he replied:
"Yes, I don't know what you're doing in the mountains so early?" At the same time, he also complained that the group of female team members behind him were grinding, and they had fallen a long distance, and they hadn't come over yet.
