Volume 2 Survival in the Forbidden Land Chapter 29 Relocation of the Camp
On the second day, the food was still abundant, and Wang Qingyun's symptoms were reduced a lot, but his internal organs were still damaged, and his qi was deficient and buoyant. There were still three doses of the first decoction, and Ning Yuanru planned to let Wang Qingyun take one dose and Ling Chen take two doses. Continue to use ginseng supplemented with various herbs into the decoction, although the effect is not as good as the first post, but the effect is not bad.
Last night, the dumpling seemed to have sucked out some of the cold poison in Ling Chen's body, but because of this, the dumpling has been frozen very hard all over his body now, and the cold is overwhelming. Ning Yuanru was a little worried about the situation of the group, but no matter how it was said, it was its own choice, and Ning Yuanru didn't know what harm this would do to the group.
Ning Yuanru told everyone about the situation last night, and also showed everyone the dumplings wrapped in thick cloth. Although the cold air is not as fierce as it was at the beginning, you can still feel the cold emanating from the dango's body.
Wang Qingyun's brother and sister saw the group for the first time, and they couldn't help but be a little curious. Although there are many spirit beasts, for them, there are still relatively few living spirit beasts that they come into contact with. Most of them were summoned by powerful elders through spirit summoning, and even the water blue butterfly that Ling Chen had seen before was the first time he had seen a living spirit beast.
Today, the ball was lying stiffly in a thick cloth, looking like a dead thing.
"Why do you call it dumplings? I think the strips should be more suitable for it. Wang Qingyun pointed to the group, very puzzled why Ning Yuanru gave this snake such an unrelated name.
"Just because you talk a lot! I think the name Dango is cute. Isn't it a nerd?" Wang Qingyu said on the side, and at the same time turned Xu Ziqing with his elbow.
"Ahh Xu Ziqing woke up from a dream, nodded frequently, and said, "Very reasonable." ”
Ling Yue was silent on the side, she seemed to be very afraid of snakes, and even if she stood far away, she would not come closer.
Yesterday's heavy rain was very sudden, but fortunately it has stopped today. Everyone will also have to think about rebuilding the shelter, after all, they will stay here until Ling Chen is well. If a few people are committed to the big tree again, it will not be a good thing. And it does seem that this place is not safe, it is not more than a mile long from the canyon, and if there are wolves chasing it, everyone will have no choice.
Fortunately, after a heavy rain, many traces were washed away, and along with their smell, this is the magic of nature.
After feeding Ling Chen the decoction and having breakfast, everyone's task today is to find a safe place and build a shelter that can provide habitat for six people. In the past, the location of the shelter was Ling Chen's search for the nearby situation, and then he chose a location to build the shelter.
Now it is Ling Chen's test of everyone's learning these days, without Ling Chen's command, how far can everyone do all this? The answer will be revealed soon.
Wang Qingyun was still very weak, and it was still a little difficult to stand up. Therefore, Ning Yuanru, Xu Ziqing, and Ling Yue continued to find shelter and explore the surrounding environment, leaving Wang Qingyu to take care of the two wounded and sick. Without Ling Chen and Wang Qingyun, it was gradually Ning Yuanru leading everyone in the team, although she didn't say much, everyone still accepted it very much, and didn't feel anything wrong.
Ning Yuanru didn't plan to choose the shelter far away from the original camp, because Ling Chen's transfer was quite troublesome, and Wang Qingyun also needed someone to take care of him. It looks peaceful, not like a dwelling for large birds of prey.
Peeling aside a dense woodland that had been completely deserted, a small pond came into view. On a sunny day, you can tell from the dirt under your feet, but unfortunately it rained. It's not a stagnant water, and there's a flowing stream that flows into it.
"Ling Chen said that shelters can't be built near water sources, so let's find a place to build shelters near here. Ning Yuanru said.
Many birds and birds of prey need to drink water, and if you build a shelter near a water source, you will increase the probability of contact with these predators, and the risk will be greatly increased.
In the end, the three of them chose a stone wall. There is good light and air circulation, and the stone walls are sunken inside, so there is plenty of space inside. It is also sheltered by tall trees, and it is not afraid of being exposed. Build a roof at the edge of the stone wall to keep out the rain, and build a ring of fortifications around it, and the whole camp is complete. When resting at night, you only need to approach the inside of the stone wall, and the wind will not blow in at night.
After cleaning up the inside of the stone wall, setting up the roof, and dealing with the surrounding environment, it was already early afternoon when all this was done. At this time, the sky is just right, the sun is warm and very comfortable. After a busy morning, the sweat of the three of them was blowing, and at this time a gust of wind blew, which looked particularly refreshing. It was time to bring everyone here, and after the three of them had eaten some dried meat and drank enough water, they set off to go back.
Follow the markers along the way and soon return to the camp. This was taught to them by Ling Chen, and it was easy to get lost in the wild with dense trees. Therefore, it is necessary to mark it at all times and remember the references. Only by knowing the direction so that you don't get lost. On the first day she arrived in the primeval jungle, Ning Yuanru had been taught by Ling Chen, so she remembered it very clearly.
Although the sun is shining, the water in the forest does not evaporate much, and the ground is still very wet.
cut a branch for Wang Qingyun and let him use it as a crutch, and Wang Qingyu could help him on the side. As for Ling Chen, several people weaved a pair of stretchers, and there is always no shortage of vines here. It is better for two people to carry it than for Xu Ziqing to carry it alone, and Ling Chen's body at this time cannot withstand such a toss.
Xu Ziqing carried one end, and Ning Yuanru and Ling Yue took turns to carry it. The terrain is gentle, and the trees and grass are not too thick, so it is very brisk to walk. Just avoid slipping and be careful when walking.
The new environment is definitely much better than the original place. The stone walls are cool and the sun is warm, which is just the right time for rest. I believe that a good environment can also help the recovery of the wounded and sick.
Although everyone has already come, there is still a lot to be done. There was no firewood yet, and there were not many fires and firewood brought from the camp before, so we needed to pick them up again. Just in time for the firewood you have picked up to dry here and let the sun bake. The water source is nearby, so it doesn't take much effort to get it, but you still need to be safe.
Ling Chen had a very heavy cold poison on his body, so Ning Yuanru saw that the weather was very good today, so he directly forgave Ling Chen outside, planning to bake it with the sun. At the same time, they lit a fire on Ling Chen's side and prepared to start boiling water and cooking, after all, after they drank the mountains directly, several people had diarrhea for a few days, and now they drank boiled cooked water.
It looked like it was working well, the sun was very hot today, and there was a raging fire burning on the side, and Ling Chen's whole body was covered with tiny droplets of water, which looked like a piece of meat that had been thawed. The effect of using this method to get rid of cold poison is not ideal, but at this time they do not have better conditions. There is no medicine, no silver needles to measure the pulse, and no aura to regulate the qi, so we can only rely on the outstanding ability of nature.
Ling Chen should also feel lucky, fortunately, everyone came over with classmates and knew how to save the emergency. If any character believes in what feudalism, maybe he already has three pillars of high incense on his head at this time.
After coming here, the food was very monotonous, from cooking cakes and rice porridge at the beginning, to wild vegetables, mushrooms, and meat. Along the way, it is their increasingly mature way of survival. Although the food is still monotonous, they can already live better on this land by this time. Find your way and move forward. Maybe at some point, they will be able to return to the world.
A few people who had gone out came back one after another, bringing back a lot of firewood, grass and drinking water, which could be used to live here for many days.
"Didn't you encounter any situation on the road?" Ning Yuanru would habitually ask, if there were any clues, it would directly threaten their safety.
"Nope. Ling Yue went to fetch water and came back, being cautious along the way, always keeping an eye out for any other beasts that would be by the pond.
"But I think there might be fish in that pond. Ling Yue added.
If there are fish, their food will be more abundant. Now they still have the wolf meat in their bags, and compared to the strong unknown beast they hunted, the wolf meat is very unpalatable. It's not hard to swallow, but it's not enough to eat wolf meat.
"There's nothing wrong with us either, I deliberately searched under some rotten leaves, but I didn't find any mushrooms. Xu Ziqing said.
Nowadays, they will inadvertently look for the food necessary for survival, which is the consciousness gradually cultivated in the jungle. The environment was different, and the pine forest they had found last time had many mushrooms growing in it. But when they got here, they were nowhere to be seen, so they were far away from where they were.
They also observe their surroundings at all times, from the beginning of the vegetation to the shade, it is very difficult to walk on the ground. The deepest depths of the weeds stretched to the waist, and the vines were densely packed, weaving together in the sky to form a huge vine web. Nowadays, the surroundings are much more sparse, and although the trees are still tall, the weeds are no longer growing wildly, and many shrubs have appeared. In comparison, it is much wider than before.
"Let's eat first, and I'll give them the medicine later. Ning Yuanru nodded in understanding.
After eating dinner, Ning Yuanru began to decoction the medicine. At the same time, he wiped the beads of sweat off Ling Chen's body, and called Xu Ziqing to help Ling Chen change out of the clothes that had been soaked in sweat, put on the clothes that had been washed before, and at the same time change the medicine for Ling Chen's wound.
The wound is not healing, but there is no sign of getting worse again, which is already good. Although Ning Yuanru looked very indifferent every time she changed her dressing, she was very anxious in her heart. If this continues, Ling Chen may really die.
With a strange mood in her heart, Ning Yuanru decocted the medicine as usual. Finally, cut off a small half of the ginseng that had been boiled twice and put it into Wang Qingyun's bowl. Although this thing is very bitter, it is currently the most effective for Wang Qingyun. As for Ling Chen...
After feeding Ling Chen medicine, it seems that the sun has set. The sun was nice today, and everyone had a good day. There is still a lot of firewood and grass in stock, which has been dried today. At night, Ning Yuanru planned to roast Ling Chen with fire, and maybe he could force out some more cold poison.
