Chapter 10 Confluence
After quietly turning over the three hillsides, Yan Shou Lisheng cautiously approached the mouth of this valley, behind which were all jungle trees, and no one would find out, unless he was standing on the top of the mountain, or someone who knew about it, but if so, Yan Shou Lisheng had no choice but to consider himself unlucky.

Just as he was about to go inside to find out, a voice came from inside.
"Recently, a lot of scary-looking things have gathered outside, and I've heard that they're youkai. ”
"Don't talk nonsense, with Lord Tengwu here, what monster dares to come?"
"That's what I've seen with my own eyes, have you ever seen a spider that big with someone?
"It's not like you're dazzled, is it?"
The sound was getting closer and closer, Yan Shou Lisheng looked at a protruding stone at the foot of the mountain on the left, and hurriedly ran over, turned over and hid.
Listening to the voice getting closer and closer to him, Yan Shou Lisheng became a little nervous, he didn't notice that he didn't know when he didn't have the fearless mentality of last night.
Although Yan Shou Lisheng can now kill these two people with a single sword, he knows that it is best not to alarm others, which makes him nervous and uneasy, and there is still a sense of grievance in his heart.
Fortunately, the two of them are no longer as careful as they were at the beginning, after all, it has been almost three years, and they have been completely lazy.
If it weren't for the scolding they had just been given by the Grand Commander, they would still be asleep.
The voice began to go away, and he had already left, Yan Shou Lisheng pressed the waist knife with both hands, and slowly followed on tiptoe.
It was a small valley, no more than a hundred paces long, and the widest part was only thirty or forty paces, and there were no trees in the valley, but there was a dense mountain grass, half a man high, and a clump of grass in the middle should have been removed, revealing brown and blue grass roots.
There was no place to hide at all, for fear of alarming the two of them, Yan Shou Lisheng did not enter rashly, but hid in the valley. When the voice was weak and inaudible, Yan Shou Lisheng poked his head from behind a big rock at the mouth of the valley, and when he saw it, Yan Shou Lisheng was stunned - the two people had disappeared.
However, he knew that it was impossible for those two people to disappear for no reason, if it was Teng Wu to take the clock, he would not doubt that he had this ability, but these two people must be a little mysterious here, Yan Shou Li Sheng saw that there was no one in the valley, and carefully entered the valley.
There was no silence, which made Yan Shou Lisheng a little uneasy, but he was already here, and he couldn't back down if he said anything, not to mention that there was a big secret hidden here.
The valley is not big, Yan Shou Lisheng quickly walked to the end, in front of him is the intersection of the two mountains, only a piece of green vine hanging down from the mountainside, there is no way forward.
But fortunately, the footprints are still there, and the traces of the grass that people are overwhelming are still there, and along with these, Yan Shou Lisheng finally found a crack hidden behind the rattan, and the rattan obviously still shows signs of being pulled.
Yan Shou Lisheng poked his ears out, only to hear a whisper and the sound of whirring wind.
The possibility of being found after entering is very high, it can be said that it will definitely be discovered, how many people are inside? Who is inside? I don't know these things, after thinking about it, Yan Shou Lisheng still retreated, knowing that there is this place is enough, don't startle the snake first.
In the final analysis, Yan Shou Lisheng is still very jealous of Teng Wu's clock, and he doesn't know how to face his current father.
The birds are chirping, one after another, crisp and tactful, very pleasant to the ear, Chengli only lay down for a while, the water traces on the body are almost dry, I feel that I have rested almost, and I began to consider my own situation.
If you are equipped, you will only have clothes and sticks, and the straw sandals will have long since fallen. The clothes were very simple, a lining, a coat, and a pair of trousers, although they were already tattered - they would be scraped by some sharp stones from time to time in the water, but the good thing was that it was only the clothes, and there were only a few more abrasions on the body, and there was no serious problem.
In the end, is it still the upper part of the right hand that is the most serious? Cheng Li looked at his right hand, the strip of cloth that bandaged the wound did not know when it was washed away by the current, the flesh at the wound was already a little rotten, oozing yellow water, touched the flesh on the edge, there was no pain, pressed it, still didn't feel it, the muscle was already necrotic?
I clenched my fist, but I couldn't use any force.
The injury on his right arm became more and more serious, and Cheng Li looked at the palm of his left hand again, the cherry blossom was still there, as if it had been moistened by water, and now it was becoming more and more clear.
What should I do? I'm getting hungrier and hungrier, and I haven't eaten for a day.
Although it is out of danger at present, Chengli does not dare to relax at all, he has nothing, and if he continues like this, he will definitely die, not to mention that there may be some changes.
The first thing to do is to find the direction and return to the hut, where it is not only the best place to rest, but also a part of the weapons, with which you can have prey, defend yourself, and live.
What's more, once others escape from danger, they also return to the hut, and those people are all helpers, and in case of their own injuries, they are natural bodyguards.
If you want to go back to the cottage, you also need someone to remember the way, and the old hunter Toriji is the best candidate, with his experience for so many years, Chengli doesn't think he will die.
First of all, it's better to know where you are at the moment and figure out the direction.
Chengli began to get dressed, although he had squeezed out the water at the beginning and basked in the sun for so long, it was still tidal, but it was much better than soaked clothes, not to mention that Chengli was not used to standing naked in the sun, it was too shameful.
The clothes and pants are very tattered, but at least they can cover the shame, and the right hand and the entire right chest are exposed, which makes Chengli very unaccustomed to it, but there is no way.
The threat to life safety has come to an end, although the stomach is hungry, it can still hold on for a day or two, and the separation is no longer so urgent, but it is much more careful to walk.
The reason why an accident is an accident is that it is unexpected, and if there is a defense, it will be much better, just like being attacked for the first time, why do so many people die? First, the mind is taken away under nervousness, and second, it is unexpectedly defenseless.
Although there are some situations that you know and understand, you can't change the overall situation, just like the centipede monster, I'm afraid that hundreds of people are useless together, even if you know that it is going to attack, what's the use? Can you stop it? Can you escape? It's just the difference between dying sooner and dying later
If you encounter this situation, there is nothing to be done, this is God wants to let you die, but at least many other situations can be discovered and avoided in advance.
Chengli decided to go around the two peaks and head up the river to find the collapsed cliff first.
There is a distance at the foot of the mountain where the grass and trees are much sparse, which makes it easier for Cheng Li to walk, otherwise he will have to rub the wound on his right arm from time to time through those bushes, although it does not hurt, but the cool feeling is very bad.
Fortunately, it wasn't far, maybe it had been a long time in the water, and there was a long detour on land, but the speed of walking was much faster than the speed of swimming, and it still didn't run, it seems that people are really land creatures.
The forest also began to thin out, and it was better to go, no matter what movement there was at a glance, you could immediately find it, and you didn't have to be suspicious and nervous for a long time, and you scared yourself.
Chengli walked over and saw more than one rabbit gnawing on the grass in the grass, playing everywhere, even if Chengli made a lot of movement between walking, he just raised his head and watched vigilantly, did not escape, Chengli also wanted to get close and catch one empty-handed, but unfortunately as soon as he saw someone approaching, the rabbit jumped away from it.
It's a pity that Chengli can have a good meal if he has a bow, but he can't do anything, and Chengli didn't waste time and walked out of this woodland directly.
Soon Chengli bypassed the mountain peak and walked to the flat ground under the cliff, only after a maximum of two hours, and then seeing the scenery here, Chengli actually had a feeling of being in a different world.
"Huh. Chengli shook his head, there is a great fear between life and death!
There is no need to discern what direction to take, just bypass the cliff and follow the river upstream.
Although Chengli remembers last night's route, there was obviously something wrong with him at that time, maybe he felt that he was walking straight at that time, but in fact, he was already walking in a bend, maybe he felt that he was going south, in fact, it was going north, and the feeling of being disoriented and having almost no end to go down made Chengli still scared now.
Maybe it was the cherry blossom dryad that caused the ghost, but what if it wasn't? Not to mention that after walking so many ways last night, if you don't get lost, you have to get lost, and Seori is very suspicious of how she feels.
On the contrary, if he followed the river upstream, at least Chengli remembered that the river where he escaped from the giant centipede was downstream, and when he ran here later, he also went downstream.
Just walk forward and you will find the place where you were from.
Izumita, Wei Zhong and Toriji have returned to the hut, as for the others, there is no trace, presumably it is more auspicious, although now although the rabbit has been roasted, it has almost revealed a fragrance, but there is no appetite in everyone's hearts.
The three of them all had calm faces, their hearts were heavy, and the other hunters said that even if they died, it would not be a big deal, after all, they were all just commoners, but this time it was not just the common people who died, and it would not be easy for these commoners to die a guard, not to mention the death of a leader.
To tell the truth, Toriji regretted it very much in his heart, he was afraid in his heart, the shadow of death was in front of him, he didn't consider the pros and cons at all, he just wanted to live, not to mention that he was a leader with great bravery, and the river was not far away, how could it be...... Alas, it's really unthinkable.
"Now the only way to do this is to go out and look for it. "Toriji knows that it's useless to wait, it's just a waste of time," we didn't see Kasaku-sama's body, so it means that he is still alive. ”
"But the others haven't come back yet, just a few of us, I'm afraid it won't be of much use, the mountains and forests are so big. Izumita was a little unhappy, of course, he didn't say anything more important, and the others didn't come back, but he was afraid that there were some fierce beasts around here, and if he went out, what would happen if he encountered it.
Toji glanced at Izumita, and as soon as he heard this, he knew what Izumita was thinking, but couldn't he go back to the cottage with these three of them?
Wishful thinking, so many years of experience have made Toriji know that if the leader of Kasaku is really dead, then the three people here don't want to live, if they escape, the fate of their families is only afraid...... Thinking of this, Toriji didn't dare to think about it, he still had a wife and son in the cottage.
What's more, so many people who came out to hunt have relatives, "Don't forget your family." Hearing Toriji say this, Izumida and Weizhong both fell silent.
"So, then are we scattered to look for it?" As soon as Zhong heard about his family, he remembered his wife and four-year-old son, and knew that it was impossible not to go out to look for him.
Izumita is actually more inclined to run away, and if he had made a boat down the river here, he would have found other villages, and when the time came...... After all, his wife gave birth to a daughter, so what if she abandoned it?
However, seeing that Wei Zhong also agreed with Toriji's opinion, he had no choice, he couldn't support it alone, he knew that he couldn't survive alone.
I had to go to the chief, and when I thought so, I heard Yuzhong's inquiry, and I looked at Toriji to see his answer.
Toji frowned, he actually tended to scatter to find it, but looking at their expressions, he knew that it was unlikely, but if they were scattered, it was very dangerous.
"Don't scatter, the three of us go looking for it together. ”
There was no bloody plot that passed by, they all walked along the river, and after walking for about two or three hours, he heard a shout in the distance.
"Boss—"
I didn't believe it at first, until a cry came, and I came back, "I'm here! I'm here!"
Hearing the voice, Cheng Cheng was excited and hurriedly ran over.
Wei Zhong's voice was almost dumb, although the three of them took turns shouting, and they could drink a sip of water from time to time to moisten their throats, but they also shouted too much and too loudly, and their throats were already hot and painful, which could not be relieved by drinking water.
But if you don't scream, you can't do it, thinking that you are your son and still waiting for you to go back in the cottage, you are about to shout for the bell again, but at this moment, you hear a voice coming from afar.
Wei Zhong turned his head and Toji Izumida glanced at each other, and both saw the surprise in each other's eyes, and at this moment, another shout came from the distance, this time I heard it clearly, and it was clearly the voice of the leader.
There was a surge of surprise in the hearts of the three of them, they thought that there was no hope, they never thought that the leader was still alive, everyone who thought about it that day felt terrible, but they didn't expect the leader to survive, sure enough, is it worthy of the leader.
Following the direction of the voice, the three of them hurriedly ran over, and soon the two sides saw each other, but it was a little troublesome because there was a river in the middle.
This made Cheng Cheng afraid for a while, the hut was not on this side, if he couldn't distinguish the terrain, he was afraid that he would have to keep moving forward, and when the time came.
Thankfully, thankfully!
However, when Cheng Li saw that there were only three of them, a wave of doubts arose in his heart, "Is it just the three of you?
"None of the others have come back, and we don't know. It was Izumi who spoke, and Seori knew the name of this person when he had an argument with Tsuchijo Otake after escaping from the dense forest.
Quantian's answer made Cheng Li tighten, the others are only afraid that it is more than auspicious, is it the giant centipede? It is unlikely, it should be some fierce beast or something nearby, Cheng Li thought about the most likely reason, maybe there are more than one or two.
But for now, it's better to go back quickly, with the protection of the hut, at least psychologically comforting, thinking of this Chengli didn't say anything, and began to prepare to cross the river.
This section of the river is not deep, but it also saves a lot of effort, after crossing the river, the four of them did not stop, began to walk back, Chengli did not take off his clothes to dry and put on, that would not only damage his prestige, but also Chengli is not so bold, although it is said to be the same sex, but the thought of being naked in front of others Chengli is awkward for a while, he is not as open as the Japanese.
However, the clothes and pants were all attached to the body, wet and dripping down, and there was such a long wound on the right arm, and the clothes were already tattered, and they looked embarrassed.
Chengli knew what he was like now, and the three of them saw it in their eyes, and after careful observation, they found that the three of them involuntarily began to show a contempt.
This makes Chengli feel bad, and now is the time for people's hearts to move.
But he didn't say anything, just a little wary in his heart.
After all, Chengli was already very hungry, the injury on his right hand was not light, and he had lost so much blood, and after soaking in ice water for so long, his body was much weaker, his speed slowed down, and his stomach still made hungry noises from time to time on the way.
This lowered Chengli's image in the hearts of the three of them a lot.
In the evening, the four of them returned to the camp, although Chengli's performance made the three of them a little contemptuous, but Chengli was the leader after all, if they returned to the cottage, at that time.
Thinking of this, the three of them were more or less uneasy, and they wouldn't go back to the cottage to turn over the old accounts, but fortunately, they weren't too explicit, and they were children, so what could they know.
It was only at this time that Toji suddenly realized that Kasaku was only thirteen years old, but his calm performance along the way almost made people forget that he was only so young.
The three of them began to prepare dinner, and Kasaku watched them roast the rabbit, but the process of skinning, disemboweling, bloodletting, and cleaning was not shown in front of Chengli, and when he came back to his senses, the rabbit was already on the fire.
The right hand is still not strong, and the wound is only afraid that it will fester, and it will be very troublesome if it is infected at that time, and besides, there is also the prestige of being the leader.
To be honest, Chengli is very afraid that the three of them will get out of control, although he came to look for himself today, but on the way back, he does not guarantee that it will be calm, once something happens, there is no leader who is not a leader in life and death.
Chengli suddenly saw the tongue of fire that kept burning in the fire, and his heart moved.
Stood up and walked to the fire, which made them a little puzzled, the meat is not cooked yet, and the leader is so hungry?
However, seeing Cheng Li pull out a piece of firewood from the fire, the three of them knew that they had thought about it, but they had a question in their hearts, what was this for?
In the next second, Chengli replied with his own actions, and he pressed the still burning part of the stick directly against the wound on his right arm.
Suddenly, there was a long sizzling sound of meat being cooked in the ears of the three of them.
At this moment, all three of them opened their mouths wide, and they couldn't close together.
