Chapter 55: Magic
Angry and running away from the little devil, Zhang Cheng swept through the team, and then found a single Latino beauty who ran up to say hello: "Hi, beauty." I'm Bruce Zhang......"
Traveling, in addition to seeing the scenery, of course, is also to make friends. Zhang Chengxin's friend has a name that is very familiar to Chinese - Santana.
By understanding Zhang Cheng, he learned about Kelly. Santana is a Brazilian student studying geography and geographical sciences at the University of Nevada.
After looking down at the Colorado River from above, the helicopter took the students down to the bottom of the valley in droves. It was here that the organizers of the student council announced the following itinerary: after rafting dozens of miles on the Colorado River, they would survive in the wilderness for 24 hours, collect their own food, and the organizers would only provide each person with a sleeping bag for the night.
If you can't find food, you'll be hungry – the organisers also know that people don't carry more than a day's worth of food in their bags, and even if someone does bring that much, it's impossible to eat alone.
Of course, if you don't want to play, you can still take a helicopter up, but as soon as you get on the boat, the activity will start.
After thinking about it, dozens of students announced their withdrawal from the group activities, and Zhang Cheng saw that McFushan was also among them and was one of the leaders of the withdrawers, thinking that this kid was really a shame for the Asian masters.
Zhang Chengma, naturally, chose to stay in the team with the new team and boarded the Indian inflatable boat.
In the process of drifting on the boat, Zhang Cheng looked at the thousand-meter-high cliffs on both sides of the bank and looked at the Colorado River from above.
When the rafting was over, the Indian boatmen sailed away, leaving eighty-six students to become self-reliant.
At the bottom of the cliff, Santana pointed out to Zhang Cheng what generation the strata belonged to, and what happened to the creatures at that time.
The two of them were very leisurely, unlike the other students who had already started looking for food and firewood, looking for food was the rarest, there were fish in the river here, and there were all kinds of animals and plants on the bank, but the difficulty of catching wild animals was not ordinarily high - it was also because they had just come out of school and couldn't bring a shotgun, and now they finally knew why they had to meet at the school bus stop, and there was a security check at the school gate.
Fortunately, the activity is only one day and one night, and the students with stomach problems and those who are afraid of hunger have already left in advance, and healthy people will not have anything to do if they are hungry for a day, not to mention that many girls who diet and lose weight at every turn have become accustomed to the feeling of fasting.
Zhang Cheng and Santana strolled around until two o'clock in the afternoon, and Santana unconsciously 'gurgling' sounded in her stomach after taking a sip of the drink.
"Hahaha." Santana herself laughed first.
Zhang Cheng took out a piece of heart-shaped chocolate and tore off the wrapping paper: "Baby, open your mouth." ”
Santana took a mouthful of the heart-shaped chocolate, closed her eyes and waited for the chocolate to melt half in her mouth, then suddenly opened her eyes and hugged Zhang Cheng, blocked Zhang Cheng's mouth with her mouth, and sent the remaining half of the chocolate over with her small tongue.
In the face of Santana's passionate attack, Zhang Cheng resisted for 0.1 seconds before breaking through the defense, and the two of them just nibbled on a piece of sweet chocolate.
Zhang Cheng, who was full of happiness, thought: No wonder Westerners always associate love and chocolate, it turns out that eating chocolate and love are really linked.
Zhilu Dao Chocolate didn't know when Ludao would melt clean, and Santana let go of Zhang Cheng. Zhang Cheng immediately took out another piece of heart-shaped chocolate and tore off the wrapper: "Baby, open your mouth." ”
After the two of them ate five chocolates in a row, Santana stopped: "Okay, dear. I've eaten enough calories. ”
The two men found a rock on the shore and sat down to rest, and watching the others go about their business, Santana said, "Do we need to get some dry firewood to keep warm at night?" ”
Zhang Cheng kissed Santana on the cheek: "Honey, don't worry. There will be dry wood, and there will be fire. ”
Santana: "It's up to you. ”
The sun sets at the bottom of the canyon relatively early, and although the sky is still bright, there are no fish in the river anymore. Those who have found their prey began to set fire to grill fish - no oil or salt, the taste can be imagined, you must know that the Tao is a foreigner who has long been out of hair and drinking blood for many years, and such a good character as Bei Ye can only be cultivated in a country with British dark cuisine.
Zhang Cheng and Santana had rested enough on the stones, and when they walked down, Zhang Cheng said to everyone, "Hey, I'll do a magic trick for everyone." ”
Zhang Cheng took out his wallet, took out a seed from it and said to everyone: "Now, I will plant a seed of a pear tree, and then when it takes root, sprouts, blossoms and bears fruit, we will have pears to eat." ”
Everyone burst into laughter.
Zhang Cheng didn't care and continued: "Don't underestimate this seed, this is the seed left by the ancient immortals in China more than a thousand years ago. Now I'm going to find a suitable place to plant it. ”
Everyone continued to laugh and applaud.
Zhang Cheng found a stone chip, dug a small pit in the ground to bury the seeds, and then poured river water on it with an empty bottle, and then stared at the land closely.
After about a minute, when many people lost interest in the joke, Zhang Cheng said, "Look, it's sprouting." ”
Attention is focused on it, and the germinating seeds begin to grow in size as if in a documentary. It grows until it is two meters tall before it stops growing taller, and then the branches and leaves continue to pull out from the thin trunk, and the trunk itself becomes thicker.
When the trunk of the tree grew to the thickness of the bowl, the pear tree was already full of branches and leaves, and it was only five minutes before Zhang Cheng planted the seeds and watered them, and then a large area of white pear blossoms bloomed all over the branches. A gust of wind blew, blowing off a large area of pear blossoms and aromas, and the audience was relaxed and happy.
Then the green pears hung on the branches after the pear blossoms landed, and the pears became bigger and bigger, and even bent some branches in everyone's eyes but did not stop growing.
After the last pears and leaves of the pear tree turned golden, Zhang Cheng pushed the trunk, and countless dry leaves on the branches of the pear tree fell to the ground, Zhang Cheng picked a pear and took a bite, a mouth full of sweet pear juice into his throat, Zhang Cheng chewed the pear and said vaguely: "Well, it tastes good." Let's eat too. ”
Santana was closest to Zhang Cheng, and she didn't see how the magic had changed, but it seemed that there were really pears to eat, and Santana also reached out to pick a pear and nibble on it. Others came up to pick pears and eat them, and this kind of magic was the first time for everyone here. Everyone has seen Dawei magic, but it is directly from nothing, and this seems to really grow from a seed.
Someone roughly counted the more than 300 pears that had borne on the tree, and there were still some left of three per person. After eating two sweet pears, Zhang Cheng plucked all the remaining pears, and then pushed the pear tree that had completely dried up to the ground.
After Zhang Cheng tore the dry branches of the pear tree into firewood, he used the dry wood to build a bonfire and said to Santana beside him: "I said that there will be dry wood and a fire at night." ”
