Chapter 48: It doesn't matter if the others are dead
Wang Zhi is not in a hurry at this time, anyway, he has already found a living person, he is just thinking about it now, how to deal with these people, he still has to find a way to find the Gao brothers, and he has to find out what happened to his parents, looking at the current situation, I am afraid that they are also trapped here, and they will not be able to find a way to go back for a while, as for the danger, at least he doesn't think there is anything dangerous about this group of docile deer people now.
Fortunately, he doesn't need to worry about communication personally, he just needs to tell Zheng Likai what he thinks, anyway, Dad knows how to deal with it.
He has really become a high-minded adult now, he doesn't say anything, he is stunned like a bodhisattva, which makes him happy and leisurely, and he can pretend to be a high-minded person.
Zheng Likai talked to them for a long time, seeing that the sun was about to go down, they didn't know where to bring a plate of food, most of the food was shriveled bread and other things, very little meat, and half-cooked, but the tableware that held the food looked good, with gold and silver, and it was still shiny.
Wang Zhi ate Lagu's little thing, and now he is already hungry, and he doesn't care if it's delicious or not, so he eats it, not to mention, when people are hungry and uncomfortable, whatever they put in their mouths is delicious!
When a group of people had eaten, a large group of deer people cheered and jumped, in the rising moonlight, by the muddy pond, singing and laughing, at this time the whole deer people came out, men and women, and small deer people, they were wearing simple clothes, and they looked even dirty, but their smiles at this time were so pure, so sincere, Wang Zhi was also invited by them, holding hands and dancing with them.
Without verbal communication, we couldn't understand each other's words at all, but we could get along so happily.
The deer people here seemed to be able to see Zheng Likai, and the old ghost was also invited in by them, pulling him staggered.
By the time everyone was happily lively, the sky was already full of stars, the deer people scattered one after another, and walked towards the surroundings of the valley, Wang Zhi watched them leave, and finally pulled Zheng Likai and said: "Dad, we don't have much time, you still have to find a way to find out the situation, where are my parents?" We can't afford to wait here for long. ”
Zheng Likai nodded in agreement, and at this time, Lahu stepped forward and spoke enthusiastically again, Zheng Likai told him that Lahu invited him to rest.
So Wang Zhi followed the patriarch and walked towards the mountain wall next to him, bypassing the barren land, looking at the sparse plants on the ground that could die at any time, Wang Zhi suddenly felt that it was really not easy for these people to live in such an environment.
After walking a little further, it was obviously very dry here, and finally a cave appeared in front, the cave was pitch black, and there was no light at all, Wang Zhi frowned, and looked at the cliffs elsewhere, and sure enough, he saw a lot of caves at the foot of the mountain, thinking that this is where the deer people live, but there are so many caves, all of them are pitch black, and it makes people feel weird when they look at it.
Wang Zhi said to Zheng Likai beside him: "Why is there no light here?" ”
"Because the deer can see things at night, they don't need lights, and besides, look here, is there anything that can be lit?"
Wang Zhi looked back and looked around, indeed, there were only dwarf crops left in the barren here, and there was not even a tall tree, so what could he use to light the lamp?
They followed Lahu into the cave, which had no door and was not very large, and was divided into two levels, the lower one with some tools, and the upper one with hay, which was obviously where they slept.
There was a suffocating smell in the whole cave, Wang Zhi endured it so that he didn't let himself vomit directly, he stood at the door for half a minute, and finally calmed down his stomach, and then walked in with his breath.
This is a simple and unorthodox cave, even judging from the virtue of Wang Zhi's family before being poor, it is not a place to live, and it is even similar to the pig shed of his family.
He stayed in it for a while, finally getting used to the unpleasant taste, and at the invitation of his master, sat down on a ball of hay.
Zheng Likai floated beside him and whispered: "The life of the deer people is hard, and it is really not easy to survive in this desert. ”
Wang Zhi hasn't felt pitiful for a long time, since he was chased and killed day by day, escaped death, and even lost his relatives, he felt that the life and death of others had nothing to do with himself, as long as he could live well, the people around him could live well, and it didn't matter if other people died.
But now, he still had a trace of unbearability in his heart, and whispered to Zheng Likai: "You ask them, is there anything that can help them?" ”
Zheng Likai immediately told Lahu, and after a while, he returned: "They said that there is nothing special, now except that the lake in the pool is almost dry, life is still passable, but I don't know when the pool will dry up, he is trying to find a way for people to explore other places to migrate." ”
Wang Zhi's gaze was cast outside, the night was deep, the starlight was shining, the pool under the starlight was indeed not big, at most it was like a mirror used at home, reflecting the moonlight, he looked at it like this, and realized that the valley in the middle was only afraid of lakes before, but now it is only a small pond left.
Wang Zhi nodded, indicating that he knew, but he didn't respond immediately, and thought about it: "Then ask them if there is any news about my parents and the Gao brothers." After he finished speaking, he immediately raised his hand and grabbed Zheng Likai and said, "Don't let him know that we are from outside." ”
Zheng Likai nodded to show that he understood, and talked to Lahu again, this time it was long enough, Wang Zhi was confused, he simply got up, came to the entrance of the cave, looked at the valley in front of him, and a kind of understanding that he had never had before suddenly burst out of his mind.
Living in a normal world, he never imagined that a life could live so hard, under such simple conditions, they could also be satisfied, at most, they felt that there was less water, and they might need to migrate, and people and people could not be compared after all, when Wang Zhi looked up, he saw Liu Bi, Tianhuo, and the Tang brothers, they were always high, arbitrarily arranging the chess pieces of all parties, not that he didn't know that there were more people living in hardship below, but he never had time to look down.
He looked at the crops growing tenaciously in the sand in front of him, and when he came, he didn't even want to look at them again, and then he finally walked slowly, came to the nearest crop, and crouched down.
