Chapter 272: Mountains and Forests (Part II)
Deep in the mountains and dense forests, it is like a dark night, pitch black, and there is no sunlight in sight.
Lelang walked in the old forest covered with layers of leaves, surrounded by hundreds of years old trees, and the old branches were covered with moss and unknown plants.
It was dark, and if it weren't for the fact that he could still see the road under his feet, Lelang wouldn't dare to walk.
Few people dare to come to such an old forest, because such an old forest has always been the best hiding place for poisonous snakes and beasts.
Walking forward slowly, although I have also walked in such a forest, but when I walk through it again, my heart can't help but pound, it is eerie, it is too terrifying. Some trees may be too old to have mottled bark on the outside, revealing a wordless vicissitudes of time. Some of the trees have died, but they are still standing upright, with mountain vines and moss, which looks not only hideous, but also very scary, a bit like the plot of a ghost movie.
Le Lang didn't dare to go too fast, for fear that if he accidentally stepped on some broken snake, it would be over. This south is not the north, and cold weather in the south is only relatively rare, but it is not impossible. It's better to be careful in this gloomy jungle, if any one of them is in a bad mood and runs out for a walk, sees that you are not pleasing to the eye, and loves you, then you can basically go to see your ancestors. The snakes in the deep mountains and old forests are all poisonous, and there is no kind and lovely guy.
Hold the bow and crossbow and walk slowly. Suddenly, there was a commotion in the forest, and something that didn't know what ran in front of him, looking a bit like a rhinoceros, his whole body was covered in mud, and he looked very panicked, as if he was hiding from something.
Suddenly, the rhinoceros ran back in a panic and ran to the place where he had just rushed out, and Le Lang finally saw what it was this time, it was a rhinoceros. This rhinoceros is about two meters long, and it looks very muscular, but it seems to be a bit silly, how can it run around in front of him. I remember that there is a saying in the Nanzhou Mansion Chronicle: There are mountains in the dense forests in the south of the state, which are big like buffaloes, the horns are white and long and curved, the joints are striped, the bamboo leaves and tender grass, the hooves have claws, and they can go up the rock cliffs, and everyone can see them in the alpine old forest.
The mountain is now called a rhinoceros, but this thing was not seen in the classics during the Republic of China, I didn't expect it to be extinct, and it can still be seen here, it seems that there are still many species in this Dayu Mountain, not as few as I imagined. Le Lang thought and continued to walk forward.
Suddenly, a huge snake head suddenly poked out next to him, Le Lang was startled, and the bow and crossbow in his hand were about to be shot, and he was relieved when he saw who the snake head was. threw the bow and crossbow to the side, vigorously pounded the head of the snake that stretched out, and scolded hatefully: "I didn't make any sound when I ran out, do you know that snakes are scary and scared to death." ”
It was Ah Hua, it felt Le Lang on the mountain just now, so it ran over, but I didn't expect to be punched by Le Lang, and I was immediately unhappy, so I tilted my head and ignored it.
Seeing that Ah Hua was angry, Le Lang hurriedly comforted and touched its head and said, "You suddenly ran out and scared me, I'm sorry, don't be angry, I'll bake something for you to eat later." ”
However, Ah Hua didn't intend to let him go, just twisted his head to the side, Le Lang persuaded him with kind words for a long time, and after promising a lot of food, Ah Hua barely got angry with him. But he still ignored him, raised his head, and walked forward.
Le Lang hurriedly picked up the bow and crossbow and followed, this is to lead the way for him. Not to mention, walking with Ah Hua is to have a sense of security, and there is no need to be afraid of any snakes, insects, rats, ants, beasts and the like, because Ah Hua is the boss here. The rhinoceros was driven out by Ah Hua just now, Ah Hua likes to tease these silly guys, it looks very funny. But it doesn't have much appetite for these things, the skin is too thick, the meat is too thick, and it is not delicious.
There was no way to rush to Dashan Village at night, so Lelang found a vacant land, set up a tent, and spent the night. After setting up the tent, Le Lang took out the hares and pheasants captured by the burly young man and cleaned them up in the mountain stream not far away, and then lit a small fire and roasted them.
Rabbit meat and chicken came out with a drop of gold *** meat oil under the roasting of the flame, and the dripping on the fire made a "snort" sound, and the fragrance slowly spread, Ah Hua's two lantern-sized eyes stared straight at the barbecue on the fire, without blinking.
Ah Hua likes to eat Lelang's barbecue the most, and every time she sees Lelang, she asks him to give it barbecue.
Le Lang took out the spices brought from the jade Ruyi space and sprinkled them evenly on the barbecue, as soon as the spices were sprinkled, the aroma of the barbecue that was originally fragrant became even stronger, floating in the forest, and Ah Hua, who was watching from the side, almost drooled.
After roasting it for a while, it felt almost over, Lelang rabbit meat took it down, gave the relatively large rabbit meat to Ah Hua, and gnawed the chicken by himself. Le Lang took out a bottle of banana wine while eating roast chicken and drank it, Ah Hua looked greedy and came over with a big head to ask for it, Le Lang had to give it a small jar and pour it on a basin for it to drink.
After eating and drinking, Lelang went to sleep, went to bed early and got up early, and he had to hurry early tomorrow morning.
The night was dark, the trees were so dense that I couldn't see my fingers, and I couldn't even hear the birds and insects. Generally speaking, no one dares to sleep too well in such a forest, but Le Lang is not afraid of Ah Hua guarding outside.
As soon as the sky dawned, Lelang got up, and Ah Hua was still sleeping there. It is said that snakes are cold-blooded animals, but Ah Hua is one of the outliers, and she is still very lively in this winter weather. I ate something casually, and under the leadership of Ah Hua, I walked to Xiaoxi Village. The road in this forest is more familiar than anyone else.
Under the leadership of Ah Hua, Le Lang finally arrived at Dashan Village at noon, and when he was about to enter Dashan Village, Le Lang took out the things he brought from the space, but he couldn't take it, so he found a branch and picked it up, and then walked to the village.
As soon as he entered the village, the old man who was resting at the entrance of the village greeted Le Lang warmly.
"Ah Lang is here."
"Ah Lang is here this time, but he has to stay a little longer."
"Ah Lang, come to my place to drink later, I caught a big fish yesterday."
Listening to the words of the old people, Le Lang's heart warmed, he stopped to talk to everyone, and after chatting a few words, he picked up his things and walked to the old village chief's house.
When he came to the old village chief's house, She Mao, who was resting in the yard, saw Le Lang coming in with a lot of things, and said angrily: "It's good to come, what are you doing with so many things." ”
Le Lang didn't care when he heard this, put down the things on his shoulders, smiled at the old village chief and said, "This is not for you, this is for everyone." ”
"Oh, what's for everyone." She Mao asked curiously.
"You'll know later, Grandpa, if there's anything to eat, I'm hungry."
"Yes, yes, you sit in there for a while, I'll give you a bowl of noodles, Amu brought me a big piece of fish meat in the morning, and I'll cook you a fish noodle."
"Okay."
After a while, a bowl of fragrant noodles came out, and Le Lang was hungry after walking such a long way, so he picked up the noodles and ate them. Ah Hua in the courtyard outside saw Le Lang eating, looking at him with his head on his stomach, and his tail still slapping the ground from time to time, looking very pitiful. But no one pays attention to it, Ah Hua is a big rice bucket, and he can't eat enough.
After eating, Le Lang immediately put together the things he brought. He brought a solar panel and installed it in a place where the sun could get it.
The last time he came over, he saw that the old people had no entertainment, so he wanted to get them a solar power generation equipment, but he didn't have time, so he took the opportunity to bring it over this time. He also bought a satellite receiver and an LCD TV, just so that the old people could watch TV or something.
It's so hard in the mountains that I don't even have electric lights or anything, and I use kerosene lamps or candles at night, and sometimes I don't light them at all. Some people get together, chat, and go to bed when it feels like it's late, and that's always it. I can't communicate with the outside world. It's also too remote here, and their children and grandchildren can't live a good life for the elderly.
But this is all chosen by the old people themselves, they are attached to this land, they are all returning to their roots, and this is their roots.
Lelang quickly installed the solar panels, as well as batteries, satellite receivers, and TVs, but they can't be used now, at least the solar panels need to absorb heat to generate electricity.
"Ah Lang, can you use this?" She Mao looked at Le Lang playing with the machines and asked, he was very skeptical about this, he wanted to watch TV without pulling the wire? Although he lives in the mountains, it doesn't mean that he doesn't know or know whether these things that Le Lang is making up can do.
"Don't worry, it will definitely work, but it won't be until tomorrow." Le Lang got everything done, patted his chest and said to She Mao.
She Mao looked at the solar panels in the distance, and still felt that it was not very reliable, so he leaned on a few glowing broken panels and wanted to watch TV? It's so whimsical. But seeing that Le Lang was working so hard, he didn't say anything, the junior's mind.
After installing the things, Le Lang walked around the village, I haven't been here for a long time, and I really miss seeing things in the village.
