Chapter 004: Survival in the Wild
The reason why Zhao Yong began to call Zhao Xing Mr. was because the little Zhao Yong saw that Zhao Xing not only spoke elegantly and had a rich vocabulary, but also saw that when he turned around for the second time, he took the sword and carved a line of words on a big tree.
Yes, it's the word. Although I can't understand those words at all, they are definitely the words of the Central Plains, horizontal and vertical, square and square, but I don't know which of the vassal states it is.
This is not unusual, in the 800-year history of the Zhou Dynasty, after the Spring and Autumn Period began to collapse and break down, in the Spring and Autumn Period alone, thirty-six kings were killed, fifty-two countries were destroyed, and countless princes ran away. And the aristocratic clan that wiped out the clan is even more like a galaxy and a sea of sand, not to mention other families, it is their own Zhao family, and there is a tragedy of the Zhao orphans.
And in this era, being able to write is definitely rare, and it is an absolute aristocrat or clan. Although it can't be seen that he has been educated in the etiquette norms of the nobles or the nobles, it may be that the family has been extinct for a long time, and there is no one to teach and inherit the etiquette of the nobles. It could also be a hermit, and hermits are wild and uninhibited.
But the knowledge and the profound connotation cannot be hidden, and according to this person's knowledge, after some investigation, this gentleman may be called a son.
If he left this Zhao Xing in Zhao State and became a Xingzi who was respected by the world, it would be a prosperous story for Zhao State. After all, the Zhao State has not yet appeared a son, and has always been despised by the other princes of the Central Plains, like the Qin State and the Chu State, as classified as barbaric and brutal. As for the ancestors' Zhao Xiangzi or something, just like this Zhao Guojun, it is all self-appointed, and it is not recognized but a laughing stock.
This era is an era when countries are hungry for talents, and it is the obligation of every Chinese person to recruit great talents for their own country.
And this gentleman calls himself Zhao Xing, Zhao is the surname of the country, at this point, it can be seen that he used to be a Zhao person, or he has long lived in seclusion in Zhao State, and he has already identified with Zhao State.
Seeing that Zhao Xing was busy with food and accommodation at night, Zhao Yong, who had never done any work, folded his hands, and watched and thought about it with interest.
It was getting late, and the light in the forest was darker, drowsy, and unsettling. And because the night is coming, the howls of tigers, leopards and wolves are even more up.
What Zhao Xing must do now is to find something to fill his stomach, and then find a safe place to spend the night, so as not to let his big and small become the belly of tigers, wolves and beasts.
Pine nuts are highly nutritious, and there is no shortage of them in the forest, which is dominated by pine trees in the north.
In this era, the quantity and quality of pine nuts are definitely the top grade of exports. A tower of pine trees, each the size of a child's head, is the size of a small corn particle, making it easy to collect.
And what excites Zhao Xing the most is that he also stole a squirrel's cellar granary, not only has all kinds of nuts, but also allows them not to be poisoned to death for eating poisonous things, what squirrels can eat, people can definitely eat.
"I don't think you're going to work."
"Servant." Zhao Yong said seriously: "Despicable things. ”
"I am not your slave, I am your savior, please remember this, so I can't serve you." This point must be emphasized, emphasized and emphasized, this is the basic tone of the two getting along in the future.
"But it's just the two of us here, and if we don't work, we're going to go hungry. So, are you prepared to wait to starve to death, or do you have to do it yourself? Zhao Xing smashed the nuts diligently.
After Zhao Yong tilted his head and thought about this philosophical category, he had nothing difficult to decide, his stomach decided his thoughts. Only when you fill your stomach can you think about your thoughts. Starve to death, and you can't think anymore. So, he picked up a nut, picked up a stone, carefully smashed it, and put the nut in his mouth. Actually, he was hungry for a long time.
Zhao Xing snatched it over: "The child's spleen and stomach are delicate, if this kind of high-fat thing is eaten raw, it will hurt the stomach, I don't have antibiotics to treat you." Diarrhea will kill people. So, we have to fry it to be done. ”
Zhao Yong looked around, and finally shook his head: "No fire." ”
Zhao Xing was in his arms and carefully took out a disposable lighter. This lighter only has half a bit of fire oil, it must be used cautiously, if it is not used, it is really gone, drilling wood for fire, Zhao Xing has always thought that it is unrealistic.
I looked for some soft grass and some dry firewood. Of course, there are no pots, and the pots in the convoy have been taken away by the Lin Hu people, and that thing is absolutely precious to them.
I found a stone slab, built it with three stones, and then put the firewood and grass under the bottom, lay down, pouted and carefully pressed the lighter button. At this time, Zhao Xing's mood was extremely nervous, he was afraid that this firebolt would be changed because of his own crossing, and the properties of physical molecules would be changed, and maybe it would become a nail clipper.
Fortunately, after pressing it, with a crisp click, a small orange-red flame burst out, reflecting Zhao Xing's face and the dark forest with a little light.
The light of the fire made people feel hope and safety, and Zhao Yong, who had always maintained a standard aristocratic figure, also ran over with a rolling belt, carefully surrounding the outside, sheltering this little bit of light.
Holding the lighter with one hand and covering his surroundings with the other, he carefully leaned over the soft grass. The grass was ignited in this spark, and then the fire grew larger, and finally the dry wood was lit, and finally a bonfire was lit with the sound of beeps.
With a sigh of relief, he carefully put the lighter in Zhao Yong's extremely curious eyes and put it into his arms again.
Zhao Yong swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, pointed to Zhao Xing's arms and said, "This, treasure, should be sacrificed." ”
What he said was definitely not Zhou Tianzi, the co-ruler of the world, but Zhao Suhou of Zhao State.
As the chaos of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States began, Zheng Zhuang Gong shot an arrow from Zhou Tianzi, Zhou Tianzi was wounded and bled out, and the mystery of Zhou Tianzi collapsed. It was discovered that he was not a god, but a man, and that the person who shot him was not punished by heaven, and that those who were shot died soon after. Therefore, the people of the vassal countries no longer regard him as inviolable, so Zhou Tianzi is weak, and a courtier dares to blatantly cut Zhou Tianzi Zhou Yuan's wheat, and there is no respect.
And from the first Chu State to claim the king, he began to fight against Zhou Tianzi, and in the end, Zhou Tianzi had no way to take him, which indicated that the ceremony was broken.
Therefore, what Zhao Yong said was his father Zhao Suhou.
The concept in his heart is that all good things should be his own family, and Zhao Xing should take the initiative to give them.
