Sun Chong held down Sun Liya, who was holding him down, and looked at the corpse of the dead wolf on the ground, "Liya, you don't have to help me, I can still walk, you go and carry the corpse of the wolf on the ground, in such a rainy season, it is not easy to find prey, this wolf should be lost with the wolves in the rainstorm, this can be our rations, it is not easy to find food in the mountains on rainy days, don't worry about the bloodstains, the rain will wash away the traces, let's go quickly, I found a hidden cave in this forest, where there are some herbs I picked, which can cure my injury." ”

"Okay, second uncle, with you, we will feel much more at ease, this is the Yangqing sister of Lijia Village, she saved my life, Yangqing sister, this is my second uncle." Sun Liya introduced the two to each other.

Sun Chong looked at the little girl next to Sun Liya, her face was a little shocking, she should have smiled, but because she looked a little imposing, ordinary children would be scared, "Yangqing, hello, thank you for saving Liya's life, you can call me Uncle Chong!" ”

Li Yangqing hurriedly stepped forward to greet Sun Chong, "Uncle Chong, hello, I may have to trouble and disturb you in this mountain in the future." ”

Sun Chong saw that Li Yangqing was young, but he spoke like an adult, and couldn't help laughing, "Hahaha...... you little girl is interesting, go, I'll take you to the cave I found to rest, the little girl can't get in the rain more." ”

After speaking, Sun Chong dragged an injured arm to hit the head, Li Yangqing was in the middle, Sun Liya carried the dead wolf on his shoulder, this wolf is not heavy, only about eighty pounds, it may be that he suffered the same crime as a person during this time, he didn't eat anything, this weight is nothing to Sun Liya, when the animal lives, it is scary, and it is just a lump of meat when he dies, Sun Liya is not afraid at all now, and secretly rejoices in his heart, he can finally eat a meal of meat.

With Sun Chong, who is familiar with the mountains and forests, leading the team in front, Li Yangqing and the two no longer have to tremble, and they don't have to worry about getting lost in the forest.

The three of them hurried all the way, and it took an hour, and finally arrived at the cave that Sun Chong said, this cave is indeed hidden, there is a circle of lush weeds at the entrance of the cave, and there are many dense trees growing in front of the weeds, and you can't find this place without looking carefully.

Sun Chong stretched out his hand to pull away the weeds, bent down and entered the cave, turning his head to look at the two people following behind, "Come in, this cave is not very big, but it can still accommodate six or seven adults." ”

Li Yangqing and Sun Liya have long been looking forward to this hidden cave, a dry place that will not be wet by rain, but the two of them have always dreamed of it! Maybe you can have a barbecue later.

The two hurriedly followed into the cave, Li Yangqing began to look at the cave, this cave is indeed not big, eight or nine square meters, adults must bow their heads to enter, there are some dry firewood, herbs, mountain goods, and some Sun Chong's personal belongings, the most conspicuous is the bow leaning against the stone wall.

Sun Liya put down the wolf and hurriedly stepped forward to help Sun Chong, who was sitting, bandage his wounds, when Sun Chong came in, he had already picked out the herbs to heal the wounds in the herb pile, and Sun Liya took over to help mash them with stones.

Sun Chong tore open the sleeve on his left arm that was bitten by the wolf with his right hand, and the wound appeared, the wound was still bleeding, and the wound was already a little white because of the soaking of the rain, but fortunately it only tore the flesh and did not hurt the bones.

Li Yangqing saw it, "Uncle Chong, I still have some medicine for treating trauma here, you try it first, this is the powder that our family asked the doctor to prescribe in the town, which is convenient for external application." After speaking, he hurriedly put down the cloth bag on his back, opened the oilcloth, and found the medicine for treating trauma in a pile of wrapped medicine bags, and opened it to see that it was some ground medicine powder.

Li Yangqing took the medicine to Sun Chong's face, after Sun Chong thanked him, Li Yangqing helped sprinkle the medicine on the wound, and some stopped the blood coming out, Sun Liya was very happy when he saw this, "Sister Yangqing, your medicine works, the second uncle will definitely be fine." ”

Sun Chong also thanked: "Thank you, Yangqing, the effect of these herbs must not be as good as the medicine prescribed by the doctor to treat injuries, I just try my luck, I don't know if I can get through, what I am most afraid of is the problem of wound infection, and you are equivalent to saving my life!" ”

Li Yangqing hurriedly waved his hand and said embarrassedly: "Where, where is the grace to save lives, Uncle Chong, you are too polite, if it weren't for you and Liya to jointly kill the wolf, I wouldn't have been able to get out of this forest, with you, we are much more at ease, hehe!" ”

"Okay, okay, Liya, there is dry firewood there, you get up, your clothes are wet, everyone roasts and cooks some food, I don't have anything to eat here, let's stew some wolf meat today!" Add some mushrooms and stuff like that. ”

"Okay, second uncle, I'll help you wrap the wound first." Sun Liya took out a clean piece of clothing and tore it off, ready to use it to bandage the wound, "Liya, you can also apply the herbs you just mashed to promote wound healing." ”

"Okay, second uncle." Sun Liya put the mashed herbs on the wound, and then carefully wrapped the wound with a cloth towel, and the barren mountains and forests did not pray for any good bandages to bandage the wound, and after the wound was wrapped, the three of them were a little loose, and their expressions relaxed a lot.

"Second uncle, I can't peel this wolf skin, you teach me to deal with it!"

"Okay, I say you do." Sun Liya and Sun Chong bent down and walked to the wolf corpse placed at the entrance of the cave, Li Yangqing still couldn't see the process of peeling the skin, so he began to make a fire.

I found some dry firewood and put it in the stove that Sun Chong had stacked with stones, lit the hay with flint and steel and put it under the dry firewood, and blew it with my mouth, first a small cluster of flames slowly turned into a big fire, the fire became bigger and bigger, and after the fire began to burn steadily, Li Yangqing saw a small iron pot in the corner, so he couldn't wait to pick up the pot and go to the hole to catch a pot of rainwater, bring it to the stove with the stone and put it on, and wait for the water in the pot to boil, and then you can stew meat later, Li Yangqing thought beautifully.

Under the guidance of Sun Chong, Sun Liya picked up the knife in her hand from the wolf's head to the limbs, cut the opening, and slowly began to peel off the skin.

Wait for a wolf skin to be peeled, then remove the internal organs and wash it, chop it into several large pieces, take out a small piece to cook tonight, cut it into small pieces that can be eaten and put it in a bowl, Sun Liya turned her head and beckoned to Li Yangqing, "Sister Yangqing, come here, stew this wolf meat, second uncle, you are injured, go and sit by the fire!" ”

"Okay, I've got some salt here, but not much, I'll find it and add it to the soup later, and the rest of the wolf meat will have to be smoked with a branch near the fire!" There is no extra salting, I hope to keep it for a little longer, otherwise I don't know where to find food! Now the prey in the mountains doesn't know where to hide? ”

Li Yangqing poured the meat in the bowl into the boiling water, sprinkled some salt into it, and then took the mushrooms to the hole and washed them and put them in.

Sun Liya planted the wolf meat on the branch around the fire in turn, and when the fire slowly smoked, the three of them sat around the fire, and then they had time to talk about their respective situations.

"Second uncle, let me tell you, that is, not long after you went into the mountains to hunt, the village first began to recruit soldiers, and each household must be conscripted a male, you are not there, Brother Rong did not inform the second uncle of you, he secretly concealed the second sister-in-law to sign up to replace you, and went to the battlefield, and then it rained heavily for a long time in the village, listening to the words of Yang Qing's sister, because the torrential rain lasted for more than half a month, it may be that the river embankment in Wei County collapsed, and the water of the Mojiang River flooded the surrounding towns, and the disaster spread to our three villages of Sun, Li, and Wen, It was at night, and I don't know how many people escaped, so I ...... My father and mother ran away with my younger brother, they didn't want me, I still relied on my strength to climb the tree in the village so that I was not washed away by the water, and then I was rescued by Yangqing girl, and we arrived at the only Qingzhou Mountain that was not submerged, woo woo woo ....... Sun Liya couldn't help crying after speaking.

After listening to Sun Liya's description, Sun Chong's face changed greatly, and he suddenly sat down on the ground, punched his leg hard, and his eyes widened, "What? You said Rongwa went to the battlefield, why? Why didn't Rong Wazi notify me? I'm just such a son as him, if Rong Wazi has a mistake, how can I be right! If I had known, I wouldn't have gone up to this Rausch Mountain, so why didn't I stay at home? The eldest brother and sister-in-law are also ruthless, it is true that there is a stepmother and a stepfather, so I will leave you like this, I am not worthy of being a parent, how to get up the dead sister-in-law, hey! Sun Chong punched himself a few times in annoyance.

Li Yangqing looked at the two people who were in grief, and could only comfort: "Liya, Uncle Chong, don't be excited and sad first, calm down, Brother Rong went to the battlefield may not be a good thing, he avoided the flood early, if it is this time, the probability of living is much lower than on the battlefield, my second uncle and uncle also went to the battlefield, I believe they must still be alive, Uncle Chong, you went into the mountains to support your family, it's just that God is just making people, you are injured now, you have to take care of your wounds!" In the future, we will go down the mountain together to find relatives, and Aunt Liu Ye is still waiting for you to reunite! ”

The two listened to Li Yangqing's comfort, and felt much better, "Liya, Yangqing, I was originally going to go to the mountains to hunt and collect some mountain goods to sell some silver, and the taxes paid at home have been hollowed out, where would I have thought that there would be conscription later, I want to stay more and hunt more prey and prepare to go back, but the heavy rain has dragged down for days, and I haven't caught any prey, it's not easy to find food, and some small prey I caught was also eaten by me in the cave, today I was going to go out again to try my luck, find some food, and met a wolf, I know that it has been raining for days, but I don't know that there are such serious consequences, hey! ”

"Uncle Chong, let me tell you that the water has risen to the halfway point of the mountain in Qingzhou, this is the land that has not been submerged, I suggest that we first rest and recuperate on the mountain for a period of time, now it is raining, we can't go far, although you can go to Nanfu County by crossing Gyeongju Mountain, but the road is difficult and you are not familiar with the route, the reason for this conscription is that Nanfu County and Donglin County are fighting, I don't know where the war has spread now? We might as well wait for the rain to stop and the water recedes, and then go down the mountain to find someone, Uncle Chong, you are also familiar with the road back to Sunjia Village from Gyeongju Mountain, what do you think? ”

Sun Chong nodded, "Yangqing, what you said is right, even if they flee, they will only go north, and now is not a good time to set off, I was injured again, and if I encounter danger on the road, I will suffer." ”

"I, I don't have an opinion anyway, it's good if you say yes, wow! This meat is so delicious! Let's eat it! Sun Liya's emotions came and went quickly, and when she smelled the smell of meat, she forgot her troubles, and stretched out her tongue and licked her lips exaggeratedly.
