After Qin Xinru and the five of them left, the people from Zhang Liu and the two villages hurriedly surrounded him, concerned about Zhang Xiaopaw's injury, and were even more curious about what the five young ladies and Zhang Xiaopaw said.

Zhang Xiaopaw didn't rush to speak, he first took a pill, and then asked each of the injured to take one pill. The pill was reddish-brown, round, the size of a little finger, and the fragrance was overflowing, a hundred times more fragrant than the most fragrant thing Zhang Xiaopaw had ever smelled. Niu Dawa stared at a pair of bull's eyes, and asked Zhang Xiaobao vigorously if there was anything left.

Zhang Xiaopaw calculated, there were a total of five injured people, according to Qin Rulan's instructions, each person needed to take two pills, counting him to eat one pill himself, a total of eleven pills were needed, and there were a total of twenty pills in the medicine bottle, even if each of the five seriously injured people was given one more pill, there would still be four pills left.

Of course, even if there is a surplus, Zhang Xiaopu will not use such a precious elixir to satisfy everyone's appetite. Even if he was willing, Niu Yao and the other elders would definitely not agree. It is about to go into the Black Forest to hunt, and there are many dangers, and these pills are both confidence and security.

Zhang Xiaopaw put away the pills, and then he told the story in detail about the cause and effect.

After hearing this, the people of Zhangliu and Liu villages all patted their legs and felt sorry for him. Among them, Niu Yao and Li Dashan regretted it the most, because the two of them had a broader vision and knew what it meant to be closed.

The ignorant are fearless, and Zhang Xiaopu feels that he will be able to overcome the difficulties and break through the closed battle gate. Fortunately, he didn't know how difficult it was for him to overcome, otherwise he would definitely be hit hard and see no hope.

The time was already six o'clock in the afternoon, and it would be dark after another o'clock, Niu Yao and a few other elders had a brief discussion, and decided not to rush this time, not to rush into the Black Forest today, camp at the mouth of the valley and repair overnight, and recuperate enough to enter the valley early tomorrow morning. It was just the time to take advantage of the night's rest to elect a new team leader, because he, Li Dashan and Zhang Daqiang were all seriously injured with broken bones, and they could only become a burden if they barely stayed, so it was better to go back to the village to recuperate in bed.

After Li Dashan took the pill, he woke up in only two quarters of an hour, and his complexion was very good, which made the people of the two villages breathe a sigh of relief.

Niu Yao chose a secluded place against the cliff wall to camp in case of a sneak attack by wild beasts or people at night, mainly to prevent people.

Buried in the pot to cook, frightened for a day, everyone had a full meal.

Niu Yao and Li Dashan took advantage of the meal time to briefly tell about their deeds when they were young, and the story was brilliant and wonderful, but if you explore it carefully, you will find that there is not much real material. It's just that they were conscripted into the army when they were young, and after layers of screening, they were about to be selected to become the best hoplites in the empire, but unfortunately they were eliminated at the last level, and then they returned to the village in disgrace.

Zhang Xiaopaw smiled and said nothing, knowing that they were hiding a lot, but they didn't ask, if they didn't say it, they couldn't say it, and if they asked, it would be in vain. But in the second half of the night, he was sleeping soundly, and was suddenly woken up by Niu Yao and Li Dashan, and after stuffing his mouth with a hard bun, he quietly took him to a secluded place.

The two successively explained the "three-step killing" knife technique they had learned, as well as their own comprehension and understanding of the knife technique, to Zhang Xiaopaw one by one, and finally endured the injury and picked up the hunting knife to practice.

After doing this, the two of them soaked in the roots of the tree and went back to sleep. From beginning to end, they didn't let Zhang Xiaopaw say a word, and Zhang Xiaopaw also wisely didn't say a word.

As soon as the sky was white, everyone woke up early, ate breakfast quickly, and packed their bags and equipment. Twelve people came out of Zhangjia Village, made several improvised stretchers, and were responsible for sending Niu Yao and other five injured people, as well as the dead thin monkey and the body of another person back to the village. Zhang Xiaopu became the deputy leader of Liujia Village, and the main leader was Li Dashan's cousin Li Dahe, who was also an experienced old hunter.

"Finally, check whether the trouser cuffs, cuffs, waist bundles, and buttons are all tied, tied, and buttoned? Snakes, scorpions, insects, ants and other poisons are everywhere in the Black Forest, and if you accidentally get into your clothes and bite your dick, don't blame me for not warning you in advance. Zhang Youxiong, the leader of Zhangjia Village, took the trouble to stress once again that because no one has ever entered the Black Forest, everything inside is unknown, so you must be cautious.

Zhang Youxiong walked around the crowd a few times, and after making sure that everyone strictly followed the order, he waved his hand and said, "Let's go." ”

The crowd cheered and entered the canyon with an infinite longing for the Black Forest.

In fact, more than half of these people have been to Shuanglong Ditch and stepped into this canyon leading to the Black Forest, but none of them have passed through the canyon to the end. Just like Zhang Xiaopa, he and Niu Dawa have been here many times, stepping into the canyon with infinite curiosity about the Black Forest, wanting to explore the mysteries of the Black Forest through the canyon, but each time they have failed.

Not because the road in the canyon is thorny and rugged, and it is difficult to trek, but because the canyon is too long and long, and the cliffs on both sides are vertical and steep into the sky, the valley is dark, damp and empty, and people will have an inexplicable sense of oppression when they walk in it, and the deeper they go in, the stronger the sense of oppression, and finally suffocation, and then think of all kinds of horror legends about the Black Forest, guts and courage will soon collapse, and then flee.

Zhang Xiaopaw remembered that the deepest time he entered, about 500 steps inside, that time he called Niu Dawa and the thin monkey, a total of more than ten people, and finally escaped like a lost dog, a few were so frightened that they cried, and one was so frightened that they peed their pants.

Thinking of the thin monkey, Zhang Xiaopaw couldn't help but feel sad and sad, thinking that if the thin monkey was still alive, it would definitely jump up and down happily, blowing all kinds of to conquer the canyon.

As the saying goes, how bold a person is, it's not false at all.

More than 100 people talked and laughed, emboldened each other, and it took nearly a while to finally get out of the canyon, and everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, wipe off the cold sweat on their foreheads, and look back, the long and deep canyon made people feel palpitations.

As soon as you get out of the valley, the rich forest atmosphere comes to your face, and everywhere you look, the ancient trees are towering, the branches are bent, covering the sky and the sun, the old trees are coiled, the thick vines are entangled, and the thick dead branches and rotten leaves on the ground do not know how many years have been accumulated. The strong smell of primeval forest everywhere made everyone lose their minds for a while.

Although the yellowing of the leaves, the shedding of brown bark, the withering grass and the wilting vines of the towering old trees indicate that the Black Forest has also been affected by drought, it is far less severe than the outside, at least there is a slight humidity in the dry air, and green grass teeth can be seen under the dead branches and leaves.

The scenery in front of them brightened everyone's eyes, because they saw the hope of life.

"Damn, I'm suffocating, wait a minute, I'll go pee and pee. Niu Dawa suddenly ran away screaming from her crotch, breaking the silence.

"I'll go too. ”

"I'll go too. ”

"Haha, together. ”

One does not fall, and the scene of more than 100 old men peeing together is spectacular. It can be seen that even if people are bold, the long and deep canyon still makes them nervous and afraid, even afraid.

"The people of those villages went in these directions. Li Dahe pointed to the footprints on the ground. The dead branches and leaves on the ground were so thick that they would sink into their calves when they stepped on them, and the people of those villages had gone into the Black Forest yesterday afternoon, leaving some footprints on the ground.

"Let's go this way. Zhang Youxiong pointed to a direction without footprints and said, Li Dahe nodded in agreement, and then ordered: "Let's go in this direction, spread out in groups of two and two, and advance in parallel, the young ones go to the middle, and the experienced ones go to both sides to take care of them, and leave marks on the trunk every time they walk a distance to prevent getting lost or falling behind." Pay attention to the ground when you move forward, see if there are any wild vegetables and mushrooms that can be eaten, and if you find prey, adapt to the situation, and never let go of a prey. Let's go!"

More than a hundred people stood together, which seemed like a lot, but when they were scattered in this primeval forest, they suddenly seemed very rare.

Zhang Xiaopaw and Niu Dawa formed a group, the two collected the hunting knife, picked up the bow and crossbow, and smiled at the corner of their mouths, unable to hide their excitement.

"Haha, Lao Tzu caught a rabbit!

"Haha-"

As soon as he walked less than three hundred steps, someone received the goods and caught a fat rabbit, and the excited laughter reached everyone's ears, giving everyone a shot of strength, and they believed that the trip would be full of joy.

"Cut!"

"Two and a half pounds at most!"

"Not fat at all!"

Niu Dawa ran to look at the rabbit that the man caught, and when she came back, she pouted and said to Zhang Xiaopaw with a look of disdain. But anyone can hear the strong sour taste in his words.

"!"

"Shoot a pheasant!"

After walking a little further, someone caught another prey.

"Damn, be quiet, the prey has been scared away by you!" Niu Dawa said angrily, and gestured to Zhang Xiaopa, signaling to go faster and walk ahead.

Zhang Xiaopaw smiled and shook his head, although he was as greedy as Niu Dawa, he was not in a hurry. Now that you know that there is an abundance of prey in the Black Forest, you are not afraid that you will not be able to catch it, and it will only be sooner or later.

"Fourth, the rabbit is running towards you, block it, don't let it run!"

"Come here, there's a white mushroom here, a big one!"

"There's a rat hole, dig it up, there must be a small granary in it!"

......

The good news was frequent, and Zhang Xiaopaw was anxious when he heard it, because he and Niu Dawa were still empty-handed, and just now the champion was carrying a big bird of unknown breed to sour the two of them.

In a hurry, Niu Dawa, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped, and hid behind a big tree, and eagerly gestured to Zhang Xiaopaw, looking at his excited and bloodshot cheeks, he knew that there was prey in front of him.

Zhang Xiaopaw was in high spirits, wound his bow and arrows, and quietly touched forward.

Thorn - stab -

Before he saw the prey, Zhang Xiaopaw heard the sound first, stinging and stinging, very weird, and he didn't think that any prey would make such a sound after looking around in his head. After he touched Niu Dawa's tree, he poked out half of his head and looked in the direction Niu Dawa pointed, his cheeks were instantly bloodshot, and the hairs on his whole body stood up excitedly.

It turned out to be a big black wild boar, a little bigger than Zhang Xiaopaw's cognition, and it was conservatively estimated to be at least 1,500 catties. With its huge size, shiny black hair, and long snow-white fangs, it was a sturdy boar at a glance. The tree it tickled was as thick as an adult's hug, but it rubbed its branches and shook its branches, which showed its great strength.

Zhang Xiaopaw took a deep breath, calmed down his excited emotions, lowered his voice and said to Niu Dawa: "You star, I'll call someone." If you die, you will have to keep an eye on it, and if you catch it, the people of the two villages will not have to starve for ten days and half a month!"
