Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Raid in Sleep
Once again, he was attacked while still asleep. This time it was even worse, and it was carried away directly in a sack. In the sack, which was only transparent, I was jolted and taken to a completely unknown place.
A huge boom sounded, was it a helicopter? Oops, I don't know how Wu Shuang is, and didn't you say today that you wanted Wu Liang to take us to the back mountain to start training?
Is this what it is? All my doubts were held in a sack.
When I was tied with a rope around my waist and seemed to be suspended in the air, the huge roar of the helicopter faded away, and I was lowered to a dirt floor, I felt as if there was someone else beside me.
The mouth of the sack was loosened, I couldn't wait to get out, looked up, sure enough, a helicopter was still hovering directly above, Wu Liang sat at the door of the cabin, holding an intercom and said: "The old man said, give you fifteen days to walk back to the village, the two of you only have a set of outdoor survival equipment, and a spare signal flare, if you choose to give up the training, use the signal flare to notify me." ”
Wipe! I looked down at Wu Shuang, who also came out of the sack, with a calm and indifferent expression.
Wu Liang said again: "Wang Quan, do you remember the road that took you yesterday? That's the only route back to the village from the back mountain, and I'll be waiting for you there in fifteen days! ”
After saying that, the hemp rope that was hanging from me before was thrown from the helicopter, and then slowly flew out of my sight.
Well, in such a situation now, there is nothing more to say. I turned around and looked at the current equipment, two sacks, two hemp ropes, and a black backpack, which was not too big, and I didn't think it contained much outdoor survival gear.
Wu Shuang took the backpack away first, opened it and checked: a few rolled-up T-shirts; a ruler-long military spur and a mountain knife; a regular lighter; four packets of compressed biscuits and a leather kettle (only half the water, though); two rolls of bandages; some medicines and powders; a compass that is not very correct (Wu Shuang said that it seems to have been adjusted, and the direction pointed is not quite correct); a slinger; a flashlight; A small glass bottle with spices written on it and a flare.
I didn't know what to think, but suddenly I squatted down, picked up two sacks, rolled them up and tied them with hemp rope, and made them look like a backpack, and the other hemp rope was wrapped around and stuffed into the gap between the sacks.
Afterwards, it has been proved many times that my convulsive behavior at that time was solid, making our journey of survival in the wild less miserable and embarrassing.
Carrying the sack on his back, he picked up the military thorn from the ground, checked it, and said: "It's really ruthless, I don't even have a map, I declare first, my sense of direction is not very good, and if I lead the way, something will happen." ”
Wu Shuang put the mountain knife aside, stuffed the compass into his trouser pocket, then rearranged the backpack and carried it, and said, "Well, I am responsible for leading the way, and you are responsible for breaking the back." If all goes well, we will be back in the village in less than fifteen days. Believe me. ”
At this point, even if I don't believe him, I can't help it. Watching him take out the not-so-correct compass and study it for a while, and then look around for a while, he picked up the mountain opener and pointed in one direction and said, "Go that way!" ”
Yes! No way! I couldn't help but scream in my heart. At present, the place where we are staying seems to be a central point, surrounded by tall dense forests.
The forest was pitch black, and not even the sun could shine through. The position he pointed to was on our right, and if the other directions were pitch black, then I could already feel the gloomy atmosphere on this right side before I even entered it.
Suddenly remembered what Wu Liang said yesterday, there are wolves in the back mountains, as well as bears, tigers, leopards, lynxes, and hundreds of poisonous snakes, I couldn't help but shudder and said: "Wu Liang said that there are many beasts in the back mountains, is it really fake?" ”
Wu Shuang turned to look at me and said, "What if it's real, what's fake, if you want to quit now, you can just take the flare." ”
", how could the master want to quit! Today, the master will give you the head killer wolf dinner! "I raised my spur and made an assassination motion.
He snorted, turned and walked to the right, and a mountain-opening knife began to swing in front of him, cutting through the vines and thorns that stood in our way.
And I followed him about two paces away, holding the military thorn and guarding his back steadily.
"Hey, be careful, don't look behind you, you look up too, the snakes will hover on the branches and suddenly fall in front of you." He said without looking back.
I looked up instantly, and I was shocked! Oh my god! Is there really a big python entrenched in a thick tree, but it doesn't show its skull, so it should be asleep?
"Quiet, there are many fierce beasts in the depths of the dense forest, this should still be resting, if you dare to shout, just wait to be torn apart by them." Wu Shuang suddenly stood up and stopped walking.
I swallowed an exclamation. Although I have experienced life and death, I am still a little scared when I face all kinds of beasts for the first time.
Wu Shuang began to move forward again, and this time I was only one step away behind him, tightly, and the military thorn in my hand was also grasped more tightly.
I don't know how long I walked, but when I felt that my legs were about to go numb, Wu Shuang stopped again, and in front of him was a small open area similar to when we first landed.
Wu Shuang stuck the mountain knife into the ground, tested the solidity of the land, and then dropped his backpack and said, "You take a break, I'll see what food is nearby." If you're hungry, it's okay to eat compressed cookies first. ”
I'll go with you. I insist on that. He didn't say he disagreed, so Wu Shuang picked up his backpack again, picked up the mountain knife and chose a direction and walked over.
I don't know if we were lucky, we didn't go far from the rest area, and we ran into a python that fell down suddenly, because Wu Shuang walked in front, so I could only see his hand up and down, and the python's head was cut off by him.
It's that simple! It's really that simple. He stabbed the python in the head vertically, picked it up, and said, "You have no taboos about eating, right?" ”
Not! At this time, there is still a taboo of fart, it is good to eat, I don't want to nibble on compressed biscuits. I hurriedly nodded.
Wu Shuang glanced at me, sneered, and said, "Then you are responsible for carrying the python's body, going to find a small river to deal with it, and I'll clean up the place where I settled today." ”
Stream? I looked around, and it was all woods, and there was a small river from nowhere.
Wu Shuang pointed me in the direction with a mountain knife still stuck in the snake's head and said: "Go over there, you will see it in about three hundred meters, and by the way, fill the kettle and bring it back." ”
He fished the leather bottle out of his backpack and threw it to me.
Yes! I followed his example, took the military thorn and stuck it into the body of the python that was not completely dead, and walked in the direction he said, silently remembering the journey in my heart, and I had to continue to follow this path when I turned back.
Sure enough, after walking for about a few hundred meters, I heard the sound of running water. As I quickened my pace, there was a twilight in front of me, and when I got out of the woods, a small river appeared in front of me.
I was very excited, but I still turned around and paid a good attention to the position where I had just come out, and dropped the python, and I moved a few rocks to mark there.
I filled my skin with water, and then I lay on my stomach at the water's edge, my head dipped in the water, drank a few sips of cool river water, and rubbed my face. Again, I'll be eager to strip naked and jump into the river to bathe.
Looking up at the sky, forget it, it's tomorrow morning to take a bath, now hurry up and deal with the python, and dinner will be settled.
Peel the skin and remove the internal organs, dig out the snake gall bladder and look at it twice, close the eyes and throw it into the mouth and swallow it, and then bow his head and hold the river water, and quickly drink two sips to remove the fishy and bitter taste.
After cleaning up the python, I rolled up the snake body and carried it on my shoulders, hung up the skin, and walked back. As soon as I walked to the place marked with stones, my eyes couldn't help but glance to the side, but suddenly I noticed that there seemed to be something in the grass next to me, and one of the tails of the thing was leaking outside.
So I took two steps to that side, and pulled the grass apart with my thorns. Was this a surprise bonus? Or did someone come here in advance and put these two things here?
It was a bigger one than the one I was wearing, and it was filled with enough water for the two of us to drink on the road.
Instead of clinging to this one skin, neither of them was willing to drink too much water.
On the side of the new skin is a machete. Neither looked brand new, and was even stained with dirt and rotten blades of grass.
I hurriedly picked it up and went back to the creek to wash my skin and machete. I sniffed the inside of the skin, and there was no strange smell at all, just a small amount of water. So I filled it again and hung it on the sack.
Looking at the machete in the light, its blade was a little notched, the handle should have been stained with blood, a little slimy and fishy, found a small stone in his pocket, hurriedly washed the handle of the machete, and walked back again.
Although I didn't have a good sense of direction, my memory was still good, and I quickly returned to the place I had found before.
Wu Shuang didn't know what method to use, so he cleaned up all the fallen leaves where we landed, and then lit three bonfires, two of which were small and crackling, and a puff of smoke.
He leaned against a big tree, sat on the root of the tree and sharpened a few small wooden sticks, the front of which was pointy, presumably intended to be skewered with snake meat and roasted.
When I came back from the creek smoothly, the corners of my mouth seemed to curl up. He said: "The ground is too wet, bake it with fire, and sleep comfortably at night, and smoke it by the way to prevent the invasion of fierce beasts." ”
"Angkor, I found a new water bladder and a machete by the creek. Now we have more weapons and water. "I didn't wait to put down the sack behind my back, so I hurried over.
"Yo he, you're in luck! This can give you a windfall. Wu Shuang glanced at it and said with a smile.
I've checked, it's not someone who put it on purpose, it should be someone who trained here before left it behind or some other reason, I washed it, there is no strange smell.
Hehe smiled, I said as if offering a treasure.
Alright, the water bladder and machete will be handed over to you! You're going to have to take good care of my back! Wu Shuang handed me the sharpened wooden stick.
I untied the python that I was still carrying, cut it into sections in a circle, skewered it on a stick, and then stuck it on the edge of the biggest bonfire, and began to roast the snake meat.
Wu Shuang took out the glass bottle with the spice written on it from his bag and sprinkled it on the snake meat.
"Angkor, this python is big enough, can you eat so much meat?" I listened to the sound of snake meat being roasted and smelled the fragrance wafting out.
If you can't finish eating, you will carry it tomorrow. Wu Shuang told me.
