After drinking some water by the river, going downstream to take a bath, and washing off the camouflage uniform by the way, Meng Yun rushed back wet.

There were some oval leaf green grass by the river, and some insects that looked like beetles, just when the turtle master was dumbfounded, Meng Yun ate several handfuls of aquatic plants in a row, and there were four or five beetles.

The taste of aquatic plants is astringent, and the beetle is not only bitter and fishy, but also has a disgusting pungent smell, and I almost didn't vomit after eating it.

When the army was training, Meng Yun had eaten raw meat and live fish, and also eaten wild grasshoppers and other insects, but it was the first time he had encountered such an unpalatable beetle, but no matter how unpalatable it was, he had to eat it, and if he didn't eat it, he would have to starve to death.

Biting off his head and jagged legs, Meng Yun swallowed hard, and after eating, he raised his head and said to the turtle master with a bitter face, "How can you hold on without eating?"

"I'm not hungry for this," Master Turtle said with some astonishment, "Did you often go hungry before?"

"Why do you say that?" Meng Yun spat a little unappetizingly.

"You seem to be very skilled at eating these things, and I used to see homeless people who have suffered from natural and man-made disasters often do this," said the turtle master.

"You're wrong, there are no displaced people in my hometown, and I will never allow it to have any wars," Meng Yun raised his head and said to the turtle master, "I have been specially trained to make you feel like this." ”

"What did you do before?" asked the turtle master curiously.

"Soldier," Meng Yun replied.

"The soldiers are still training to starve?, how come I don't know?"

"You don't know much," Meng Yun said and looked at the wizard again, "Is it a custom for her to wear a veil?"

"Do you want to open it and take a look?" said the turtle master with a smile on his head.

"When I didn't say it, you take care of her," Meng Yun said, turning his head and walking upstream.

Master Turtle called him from behind, "What are you going to do?"

"I'm going to find a way to speed us up and save our energy," Meng Yun noticed that not far upstream, there were a lot of dead trees washed ashore.

The forests of this place are dominated by pine and cypress trees, which are more resistant to corrosion than other trees, and if nothing else, the dead trees on the upstream shore may not have been eroded and rotted, but he is a little worried that the amount of wood may not be as large as he wants.

After inspecting the place, Meng Yun breathed a sigh of relief, most of the wood was intact, almost all of them were small trees with the thickness of arms and legs, of course, there were also broken and too heavy ones, this part could not be carried away and could not be used, and the rest of the rest was enough to make a raft.

The water in the upper reaches of the river is too shallow, and there are too many stones in the water, so it is difficult to build a raft and enter the water. Downstream, the situation is quite different, with wider water and waist-deep water suitable for rafts.

Meng Yun had to move the wood back, and the turtle master saw him coming with the wood on his shoulder, "You want to build a ship?"

"I have to know how to build a boat, I want to make a raft out of these woods," Meng Yun said as he threw down the dead wood, and then turned his head to the turtle master and said, "Don't be idle, go to the forest and find some sturdy vines or vine bark, and if you find them, come back and tell me, and you can use them later." ”

"No problem, you can make it bigger, I'll go find you something to eat by the way," Master Turtle readily agreed.

It is not difficult to make a raft, spread out the trimmed wood, and then use a rope to tie the beam to the raft, and finally leave a pole, the general process is these steps.

The whole process took more than two hours, most of which was spent on carrying and bundling the rafts, as well as cutting wood.

Everything was ready, and after pushing the raft to the shore, just as he was about to enter the water, the turtle master came out of the woods, circled the raft for half a circle, and said to him with some disgust, "It took half a day to build such a thing?"

"What do you know, you'll know it's worth the time when you get into the water," Meng Yun stood on the raft and stepped on it a few times, making sure there was no problem with the strapping strength, "Why did you come back so slowly?"

"Look at this, I've gone find something good for you," Master Turtle grinned and spread his hands.

"What is this?" Meng Yun said, jumping off the raft and reaching out to take something from the turtle master's hand.

It is an unknown plant rhizome that looks like ginseng but has no roots, like wild ginger but is rounder than ginger, and I have never seen anything like this before.

"Ginseng root, the big tonic thing," the turtle master said with a squint.

"Mend a yarn, I'm hungry and not deficient in qi and blood, you can find a few wild fruits, there's a fart for eating this thing?" Meng Yun threw the ginseng root back again.

"Bah, you think this barren mountain is your orchard, it's good to find this," Master Turtle hurriedly took over.

"Okay, you can take it first, maybe she'll be able to use it," Meng Yun said, pushing the raft into the water, then picking up the pole and jumping up.

The draft of the raft is okay visually, and it can support the weight of two and a half people, of course, this half person does not need to say who it is.

"When are we leaving?" Seeing him on the shore, the turtle master came over again.

"Do you want to stay here for a few more days?" Meng Yun said as he docked the raft and turned to glance at the wizard again, "Will she be able to survive her injuries?"

"It's strange to say, if you look at the pulse, the poisonous gas in her body has been dissolved, according to common sense, even if she is not cured, at least she should wake up," the turtle master said with some confusion.

"Maybe she's hurt more than we thought," Meng Yun said, nodding.

"Leave her alone, let's leave as soon as you're ready, this place isn't safe," Master Turtle said again.

"By the way, how are your injuries?"

"Don't worry, leave me alone, let's go quickly......"

Along the way, the raft drifted down the water, and the speed was indeed much faster than walking on land, but the process was not as easy as imagined, the raft was not a boat after all, and there was neither a tail rudder, nor an oar or canvas.

On the way forward, he avoided the reef by relying on the pole in his hand, which was a great physical drain on him.

At first, it was okay, I stopped to rest on the shore twice a day, and each time I rested for half an hour, I could eat whatever I could find on the shore, of course, the most was aquatic weeds and insects

However, people have limits, and the aquatic plants and insects they find are far from enough to make up for the physical strength consumed, and he hasn't slept well for a few days and nights, so his eyes are beginning to redden.

Seeing that he couldn't hold on, Master Turtle took the initiative to ask Ying to take care of the road ahead on his behalf, and he only went up when he encountered tricky trouble, but even so, he didn't survive for long.

Two breaks a day turned into four breaks, and then slowly turned into a day break, and a night rush, during which the raft broke down twice, and once nearly disintegrated.

Earlier, Master Turtle had made a promise with Wizard Qi that he would come back to look for them in a few days, but now seven days have passed, and Wizard Kai still hasn't come.

Both of them had a bad premonition in their hearts, Meng Yun had prepared for the worst, but the turtle master swore that the wizard was still alive......

A crescent moon hangs high in the night sky, reflected in the sparkling waters.

The moon was always ahead, the raft was drifting quietly behind, the nocturnal beasts and birds on both sides of the bank were screaming, and the seemingly beautiful scenery nearby, but the two of them didn't have the heart to appreciate it.

The middle and lower reaches of the river are wide, the current is gentle, and there are not many reefs.

The raft drifted slowly, but steadily, and tonight was the eighth day.

In the first half of the night, he was keeping vigil, and nothing happened, but in the second half of the night, the turtle master suddenly woke him up, "Wake up, bastard, why do I feel like I'm suddenly speeding up?"

Hearing this, Meng Yun hurriedly turned over and got up, and in his field of vision, dozens of meters ahead, the water surface was foggy, and there was a faint sound of uproar.

Meng Yun's face changed almost instantly, "Uncle's, there is a cliff waterfall in front." ”

"What should I do?" the turtle master was also a little flustered.

"You stay up there and don't move," Meng Yun said, quickly ripping off his shirt and jumping into the river after speaking.

The raft is getting closer and closer to the cliff, and before falling off the cliff and falling to his death, the raft must be pushed to the left side to the shore.

"You told me not to move," said Master Turtle and picked up the pole.

The two of them pushed and supported each other, seeing that the shore was already close at hand, but at this moment, an accident happened, on the surface of the river near the shore, a reef protruding from the water was in front of the raft, but he was pushing the raft with all his strength at the moment, and did not notice the situation on the river.

"Watch out for the stones ahead," the turtle master hurriedly shouted.

It was too late, as he got closer to the waterfall, the more turbulent the water became, and even more so near the reef, Meng Yun didn't have time to react, the water wrapped around the raft, and quickly pushed him into the reef.

Under the violent impact, Meng Yun only felt that his back was very painful, his eyes were a little blurry and black, and his hands also let go of the raft, and at the moment when he let go, the whirlpool undercurrent quickly dragged him into the water.

The raft was impacted and skimmed to the shore by the current.

On the riverbank, the turtle master ran along the riverbank and shouted, the undercurrent under the water tore at him, and Meng Yun was like a kite with a broken string, swept by the wind and rolled in the air.

At this moment, Meng Yun shook his head violently, and instantly came to his senses, and the reef had knocked him unconscious just now.

After waking up, Meng Yun struggled to swim out of the water, the undercurrent at the bottom of the river was very strong, and the more he struggled, the more he found that it was futile, and just when he gave up struggling, these undercurrents threw him out directly.

The moment his head appeared on the surface of the river, Meng Yun quickly discovered that something was wrong, the white mist was in front of him, and there was a dull sound of falling water in his ears.

"Bastard bite quickly," after the turtle master found him along the riverbank, he immediately stretched out a life-saving pole.

After grabbing the wooden pole, with the turbulent water above his head, Meng Yun turned around and peeked behind him, and suddenly felt cold sweat all over his body, the edge of the cliff was only about four or five meters away from his position.

In other words, if the turtle master is half a beat slower, he will definitely disappear, which is very thrilling.

Against the current, the moment he climbed ashore, Meng Yun felt that his whole person had collapsed, and he kept spitting water out on the ground, "Ahem, puff—"

"The two of us could have escaped by jumping into the water, you have to slap your swollen face and become fat, hey, it's good now, my little life was almost lost," Master Turtle deliberately taunted him next to him, "You said you don't even know what the parents are like, why are you working so hard?"

After vomiting, he plunged into the soil on his side, the hot pain came from his back, and the hunger that had accumulated for several days, almost all the negative emotions came to his head at this moment.

Meng Yun felt tired like never before, and said without raising his head, "Find me something to eat......
