Chapter 310: The Road Is Walked by Man
A series of thoughts flashed through the boy's mind, and he was suddenly startled by himself!
What is this doing?
Why bother thinking about these meaningless things?!
The boy took a deep breath and stretched his injured hand out of his sleeve.
Shicai hid and hidden, originally he didn't want Xiaoling to see it, but he couldn't hide from his sharp eyes, and he was finally seen.
Since he was discovered, there was no reason to hide it anymore, but the young man was concerned about his feelings, and deliberately understated it, without revealing the truth of the matter, and did not want to tell him that his hands were not only injured, but also poisoned.
He looked down at his wound, which had been coated with a layer of powder, and the color around the wound still didn't look good.
The skin around it is dark cyan in color.
Last night's fight was supposed to be as easy as finding something for him, but unfortunately there was one more person around him who needed protection.
The boy expected that the situation was not right, and guessed that the Orion was definitely not simple, and for the first time in two days he had traveled in the mountains and saw a place where he could spend the night, but the Orion had evil intentions.
If he hadn't gone into the man's room and examined the strange situation, he wouldn't have even discovered the man's secret.
When Xiaoling went in, he was immediately frightened by the beast head hanging on the wall, and ran out after a while, his face turned pale.
Last night, he was afraid that the situation of the day would repeat itself, for fear of scaring him, so the young man took action and pointed at his hole.
With a person who fell into a deep sleep by his own acupuncture points! Mobility issues require extra care.
It is precisely because of this concern that when I was a teenager, I was distracted and worried, and I would fight with Orion until the end before I was accidentally hit.
Once a person has a weakness. It's easy to be caught by the other party!
He didn't expect that the hunters in the mountains were good at using poison, and it was still a rare poison.
When the final killer comes out. It was to go to Xiaoling, who was asleep, and the young man stood in front without a trace of hesitation
The boy pursed his chapped lips. There was a vague worry in my heart.
He had brought with him the best medicine and antidote from the southern border of Zealand, but the environment was different.
There is a difference between the north and the south, and he is not a doctor, after all, he is not completely sure!
If something happens, will that kid be scared by him when he comes back later?
The young man slowly closed his eyes and decided not to move for the time being, for in this situation, he had to conserve some physical strength to nourish his spirit
Walk to the mouth of the cave. The rain outside has stopped.
The weather has not yet cleared, and the mountain wind is blowing and the chill is blowing.
I raised my eyes and looked into the distance, the rain-washed mountains and forests were verdant, and the four fields were wet, but as far as the eye could see, the scene was completely different from what I saw yesterday.
This means that we are long gone where we were.
I secretly wondered, where would it be now?
I couldn't even see the path in the mountain at a glance, and then I knew. This means being in the middle of nowhere!
I looked helplessly into the distance, what the hell did that guy think, he walked in vigorously without leaving the mountain.
At first, he told me that he would only stay in the mountains for two days, and that he would see it that way. It must be more than that.
According to my judgment, isn't it getting farther and farther away from Suzhou City?
In Suzhou City, the senior brother is afraid that he is in a hurry. We've said before that even if you get separated by accident, you have to find a way to get to a place where you can get in touch as quickly as possible. No matter how bad it is, you have to think of a letter to send it.
I can't do either of these at the moment!
I sighed and decided to look around for something to eat first. The boy was right, I couldn't go far.
Now that he looks desolate, if he turns unconscious and can't even make out the direction, he may not have the strength to come to me when he is injured.
I've seen the medicine he used, and I know it.
If I can't find my way back to the cave, I'll be sleeping in the mountains and forests tonight, and I'll get drunk just thinking about it!
Although snakes and insects are rare in winter, there may be fierce beasts outside.
Looking at the endless mountains, I felt very worried.
I stood downhill and thought about it, but I still couldn't think of a better way.
I knew I had to go to the mountains to find some dead branches to use as firewood, but as soon as the rain stopped, I was afraid that what I could find would get wet and it would be difficult to light it.
After thinking about it, I remembered the big sweet potatoes buried in the residual fire in the hearth last night, and I suddenly felt that it was a pity!
I don't know what happened to the boy with that Orion last night, so that when I woke up, I slept in the cave.
I saw that he came back empty, and he didn't take any food, so I guess last night was not a good thing.
I don't want to speculate, maybe the reason he didn't tell me was so that I wouldn't be afraid.
Don't look at that big young master who is arrogant and twisted, he is a good one in his bones.
I walked down the hill to find out if there was a stream nearby.
When the boy took me to settle down in the cave, he caught a lot of fish and roasted them in the cave.
I remember very well, he didn't say anything about tools or anything.
I sighed in my heart, people who are good at kung fu can eat openly, let alone use harpoons, even if they can catch them with their bare hands!
I don't have that good skills, so it's okay to use a stupid way.
Walking down the hillside, you will come to a forest.
Before I walked in, I went back and checked my bearings, so that I wouldn't be able to find the north when I came out for a while.
Not long after approaching the woods, I heard the sound of water, and I was overjoyed.
I ran a short distance ahead and came across a waterfall hanging down the hill.
The waterfall cascades down the edge of the forest and converges into a small stream that runs through the forest.
Without hesitation, I hurried over to the creek to check.
I approached the stream and looked, and sure enough, there were fish swimming happily in it.
There really are fish!
I busily carried the stones with my hands, intending to make a simple embankment of a pothole in the stream with stones.
It sounds like a grand project, but it's actually a small pond half a meter square.
It took a while to complete the work.
Water is absolutely unstoppable. Even small fish can swim through the cracks in the rocks, and the big fish that can't cross the embankment are the ones you have to catch!
If this is not the case. I'm afraid the fish will slip away so easily that I won't be able to catch them.
So. If you catch fish in this area carved out by the creek, the big fish will not be able to escape.
It takes a little time at most, and the probability of catching it is greatly increased!
I know that my gestures are very slow, and they are far worse than those of Lian Jiazi, but my luck is good, if there is no stream and only a deep pool, then even if I jump in and catch it, I may not be able to catch a fish.
After about an hour and a half, I finally managed to get two fish. Looking at the fish that I had left in the open space and fainted, I was very emotional.
It's one thing to be clumsy, but the fish are also slower to react, and if you're unlucky, won't this just hit me?
Looking around, I think this one looks pretty good.
Wouldn't the mountain people like to live in a place where there is water? At least it seems to me.
I stood in the woods and hesitated, but behind me was the direction I had come, and I would return the way I came, and I would be able to return to the cave with the fish I caught. Rendezvous with the boy.
But now, after the rain has stopped, the weather looks like it's slowly clearing.
The sun was shining through the leaves, and it was still early. If I don't take this opportunity to explore the way forward, will I come out when it gets dark?
Then I didn't dare, walking around in the mountains and forests when it was dark. Well, I still don't want it!
Therefore, if you want to go, you have to take advantage of the daytime, whether it is catching fish or exploring the way.
The teenager took the medicine. It shouldn't be a big deal for the time being, he needs to rest. When I go back at this time, the dead branches left in the cave will only last for two hours.
I guess by the time it gets dark, they'll all run out.
The night in the mountains is the coldest, the temperature difference is large, and the wind outside blows like a knife.
The boy had told me not to go far, and I knew what he meant, so I decided to walk a little further, at least along the edge of the stream out of the woods.
When we get out of the forest, maybe there will be people living in the mountains over there, so not only do we not need to worry about firewood tonight, but we can also find a place to stay.
I still had the fish in my hand, and as I walked forward, I deliberately looked back, and after some struggle, I came up with a plan.
It's hard to keep me from getting lost in this way, but wouldn't it be better if I could make some markers?
I found a rock with a sharp edge from the stream.
With the stone in my hand, I marked it as I followed the direction of the stream.
I made marks on the trunk of the tree, marking at intervals that I could read.
That way, even if I go farther, I can find my way back.
There's no way, you know you're a road idiot, and you have to have a countermeasure.
I was walking in the woods, which was much lower than the cave, and the wind was blocked by the trees above, but it was not so cold.
I didn't walk fast, because I had to take care of the markers, and I had to stop and paddle every time I walked.
After walking and stopping, I finally reached the edge of the forest.
The stream pools into a deep pool and flows along the slope to form a channel.
My vision suddenly widened, and I was surprised to find that there was a "path" ahead, and naturally it was not a road that was built, but a road that was stepped on.
My interest was immediately aroused, and my spirits were lifted, proving that my guess was correct.
Looking at the traces of people stepping on the mountain road, it proves that at least this section of the water near the pond will be visited.
Isn't there someone who will come to fetch water from this pool? Or come over and go fishing
My mind turned, and with the fish in my hand, I quickened my pace and continued walking.
After a while, I saw a low hut on the hillside along the road.
I was overjoyed, and immediately sped up and ran over.
There must be someone, I can meet people!
While running, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a wry smile, I didn't expect that even seeing a living person became a rarity, no wonder people who have been in the mountains for a long time are silent!
Luckily, I'm only staying here for the time being.
When I was out of breath and ran closer, I stood outside and looked out not like a mountain people's house, but it looked very much like a temporary hut borrowed by Orion.
It's the same as living in a cave.
Mountain people hunting, and always build such simple huts in some places for temporary residence.
I stood there and gasped, and it was a lie to say that I was not disappointed, but I had come to this point, and I had to go in and see what was going on inside.
I was thinking, living in a cave is also living, and living in a simple wooden house like this is also living!
As long as the boy can walk, this one may be better, at least closer to the water source, and when he recovers, the glorious task of catching fish can be entrusted to him.
People take food as their day, and all considerations will be related to food.
I stood in the doorway for a few moments before I stepped forward and pushed open the mottled and old-looking wooden door.
The wind and rain in the mountains are invading, so it looks like there are traces of old age, and it is also some years, and from the outside, it may not be abandoned now!
I walked in and smelled a smell of wood.
By the light, I looked at it and found that there were many things inside.
First of all, a bed-like kang was stacked with simple stones and branches against the wall, and some straw and dead leaves were laid on it, which seemed to be a place for mountain people to rest and sleep.
I took out a rusty wood knife from under the "kang", and although it was a little larger and rougher than my hand, it was also a usable tool.
I thought that if I went to the stream and washed it and grinded it on a big rock, I would at least be able to use it!
What pleased me the most was that there was a large pile of dry firewood against the wall, and I was more happy to see this than anything else.
It means that you don't have to be frozen tonight, and you have firewood for grilling fish!
I continued to search under the "kang" and found a rope for the bundle of straw, which was probably left by the mountain people who lived in the previous one.
There was also a tattered padded jacket on the "kang", which looked like it must have been thrown down.
Of course, I don't want to wear it to protect myself from the cold, just by looking at it, I know it's dirty, so I don't throw it away until I can use it later.
After looking around, the most useful thing for me is the firewood and the knife.
Although I was also worried about the injury of the person in the cave after I had been away for a long time, I had to do the things one by one, and I couldn't rush them all at once.
I made up my mind, took the knife and went out, ran to the brook, washed it carefully, and sharpened it on the stones by the stream.
I crouched down, and the edge of the knife rubbed against the big stone by the stream, making a sharp sound that made people feel sore.
My strength is really limited, and I will definitely be able to do it quickly if I change someone with more strength.
It took me about a quarter of an hour to sharpen the knife.
Shaking against the top sunlight, I saw that the edge of the knife was sharper.
Then I walked back to the cabin, put the knife aside, and sat down on the kang to rest for a while.
At this moment, I looked at the pile of dry wood in the corner of the house, and I was a little embarrassed.
Because we need to arrange the next thing! (To be continued......)
