Chapter 3: It's hard to eat

The bamboo forest gradually went away, there was a pine forest in front, the plants here are very regional, there are no pine trees where there are bamboos, and there are pine trees where there are no bamboos, compared to bamboo forests, pine forests are much safer, poisonous snakes generally do not like to stay in the pine forests, bamboo forests are the paradise of poisonous snakes, and the green and good-looking bamboo leaves are most fond of biting on the neck when people walk by......

Stockpiling food is what Yun Zheng has always done, pine nuts are a good food, the pine tower more than a foot long is full of delicious pine nuts, picking seven or eight pine towers from the low pine trees, Yun Zheng feels like a rich man, at least the big-tailed squirrel standing on the pine tree looks at him with admiration.

The sun was already in the west, and it was about to set in two hours, and it was almost the top of the mountain, and there was still no signal on the mobile phone, which made Yun Zheng's uneasiness even stronger.

He Jianqiang fell asleep deeply, his head resting on Yun Zheng's neck and sleeping very sweetly, too, the three- or four-year-old body did not allow him to do too much exercise.

There are no snakes in the pine forest, but there are bears, there are so many animals here, it is impossible not to have large carnivores, just look at the oily and slippery pine tree rubbed by the bear, you know that the bears here must be very huge.

Primitive people all know to find a cave to live in, how could Yun Zheng not know, the cave was not found, but fortunately found a tree hole, never thought that a tree could grow so thick, the middle is already empty, the outside is still lush, there is a hole that only one person can climb into, and the other cracks are only palm wide, if the inside is dry enough, it is the most ideal place to live.

I lit a handful of pine needles and threw them in, and soon a large group of squirrels fled for their lives, great, it was good to have squirrels around, and squirrels also hated moisture.

A lot of pine resin was collected in the pine forest, and the lighting at night depended on it, if there was no fire, he and He Jianqiang would not be able to survive this long dark night, and the wolf howl was already heard in the distance......

Collected a lot of dry pine needles and threw them into the tree hole, I checked it just now, the location inside is very loose, what makes Yun Zheng most happy is that someone found traces of someone lighting a fire inside, a wooden stake inside was burned black, although it has long been cold, Yun Zheng is still happy, only people can use fire, as long as there are people, he can naturally take He Qiang to live well.

Lighting a fire in the hollow of the tree was supposed to be the way to die, but this was a living tree, and the moist wood would not cause a fire, so a small nest was laid out of pine needles and thatch, and the sleeping He Jian was wrapped tightly in his own clothes. I lit another fire in the original charred place.

It turns out that there are holes at the top of the big tree, and the smoke naturally drifts outside with the hollow trunk, and there is no smoke at the bottom, which is a gift from nature.

When Yun Zheng's wooden stick hit the pine cone, He Jianqiang woke up, rubbing his dark green eyes and looking at the bright pine resin torch in a daze, he didn't understand how he ended up in a wooden house.

"Awake? Are you hungry? Wait a while, I'll roast pine nuts for you to eat, it's not good to eat too many raw pine nuts, if you're hungry, you can nibble on two pears first. ”

Yun Zheng turned his head and smiled at He Jianqiang, and began to knock on the pine tower hard, the pine nuts leaked out of the flattened pine tower, and the seeds were full, this kind of big pine nuts, Yun Zheng couldn't afford to eat them before.

A stone slab was placed on the fire, Yun Ye sprinkled the pine nuts on it, stirred carefully, and the crackling sound of the pine nuts made He Jianqiang feel a lot more comfortable, and whispered to Yun Zheng: "It would be great if I had a brother like you." ”

"What nonsense, aren't I your brother now? It stands to reason that I am your teacher, and you should compare me to my father, but I am so young and handsome, and it is a great loss to be a father, so you can call me brother! Yun Zheng worked hard to make the atmosphere of the two people lively, happy, and the depressed people couldn't live long in the wild.

"I hate the surname He, brother, is it good for me to follow your surname, as long as I see that surname, I feel uncomfortable, I also want the surname Yun, this surname is so beautiful, the reason why I have a good impression of you is from hearing that your surname is Yun."

"Strong, as long as you like it, I have a very bad premonition, we probably can't go back, you look at this tree hole, someone has been here, I have found this since I cleaned the tree hole."

Yun Zheng handed a wolf tooth arrow to He Jianqiang, this was really a wolf tooth arrow, the arrow on it was not iron, it was inlaid with a very sharpened wolf tooth.

"Who still uses this kind of thing to hunt now, generally use guns, and again some use crossbows, bows and arrows are very difficult to master, the accuracy is very poor, ordinary people can't use them, we experience wormholes, strong, we can't grasp the time and place, because we are passive, the outside environment may be very bad, we must be psychologically prepared."

He Jianqiang was more calm than Yun Zheng, nodded, and pointed to the pine nuts on the board and asked if they were cooked? Yun Zheng was very satisfied with He Jianqiang's expression, swept the roasted pine nuts to the ground, patted them one by one, let He Jianqiang eat them, and then roasted the pine nuts himself.

The meal was eaten until midnight, and neither of them was full, but they just felt that they were not hungry, Yun Zheng added some firewood to the fire to make the flame burn more vigorously, and then he hugged He Jianqiang and listened to the wolf howl outside and fell asleep......

After dawn, Yun Zheng left the tree cave without the slightest hesitation, and the lack of food made him have no other choice. The creek at the foot of the mountain has merged from a trickle into a small river.

The mountains on both sides became steeper, there were fewer trees and more rocks, but fortunately there was a soft sand beach under his feet, and there were fish in the river, Yun Zheng knew that he couldn't catch it with his own skills, so he could only continue to rush with drool.

For two hours, Yun Zheng didn't stop for a moment, there was no way to calculate how far he had gone, he only knew that as long as the small river became a big river, he would be saved, and the only thing that could be called a big river in this generation was the Yangtze River.

The river became wider and wider, the water surface became very shallow, looking back at He Jianqiang who was delighted, Yun Zheng knew that he had to find something to eat, he didn't eat much last night or this morning, He Jianqiang was trying not to trouble himself.

There may be snakes in this generation, don't dare to put it down, so he can only continue to carry it on his back and find a shallow inlet, where several fish are wandering, not bad, the size of a palm, Yun Zheng quietly built a sand bar on the mouth of the inlet, only in this way can it be possible to catch fish.
