Chapter 18: The Price

Xiang Weiguo has been here for more than a month, and Gao Yuan can't remember the specific time, he used to look at the date every day, but as time goes by, as the same life repeats itself every day, Gao Yuan doesn't pay much attention to the date now.

There is no sun and moon in the mountains, that's what it means.

It's dark, that's what it means.

Why is it dark, because in addition to being boring and repetitive, the biggest feeling of Gao Yuan's life is misery, since he started training him with Weiguo, he feels that he has lived a dark life.

Xiang Weiguo said that he didn't like to give up halfway, and said that he hoped Gao Yuan could persevere, at the beginning Gao Yuan felt very relaxed and happy, because what Xiang Weiguo taught him was very simple, but since Xiang Weiguo decided that he could practice with him one day, Gao Yuan understood why he needed to persevere.

It hurts, it really hurts, and I get bruised and swollen from being beaten with a stick every day.

In the middle of winter, the weather is really cold, and Gao Yuan's miserable life every day begins in the early morning.

When Gao Yuan, who was running and sweating, came to Xiang Weiguo's door, Xiang Weiguo, who was wearing a military coat, also happened to walk out of his door.

Gao Yuan consciously took off his coat, wearing only a fleece on his upper body and a pair of windproof softshell pants underneath, but he didn't feel cold when he was sweating.

I just feel fear.

"Uncle Xiang......"

"Come on."

After a simple conversation, Xiang Weiguo directly knocked the stick down on the top of Gao Yuan's head, and when Gao Yuan flicked it extremely quickly and then hit back, Xiang Weiguo's stick turned along Gao Yuan's short stick, and then hit Gao Yuan's arm firmly.

With a snap, the high short stick fell in response.

"Shhh...... Ha! Wow, wow......"

Gao Yuan grinned and made a strange sound, and he didn't move to defend the country, just stared at Gao Yuan.

Reluctantly picked up the short stick from the ground, Gao Yuan took a step back, he took a breath, and then screamed, holding the stick as if he was going to hit his head, but he put the short stick away, and then stabbed it straight forward.

Xiang Weiguo held the stick in both hands, his speed was still very fast, and he pressed down with both hands to press Gao Yuan's stick down, and when Gao Yuan pulled the stick and hit the head again, Xiang Weiguo's left hand was loosened, his right hand swept, and the short stick knocked on Gao Yuan's stomach silently.

"Oh oh,!"

Gao Yuan clutched his stomach and took a few steps back, then he squatted down, the short stick in his hand tossed aside, beads of sweat dripping from his head.

With an extremely painful expression, Xiang Weiguo frowned and said, "Stand up!" ”

Gao Yuanji was in pain, he sat back weakly on the ground, holding his stomach and said with difficulty: "No, it hurts terribly...... It can't be broken......"

Xiang Weiguo's face was confident, he still made a defensive look, and said, "I can't break you!" I'm going to make you hurt a lot, but I'm not going to break you! ”

"But you haven't hit your stomach before, how fragile this belly is, Uncle Xiang, I hurt to death......"

Xiang Weiguo's face finally changed, he knew that he hadn't touched anyone for a long time, so if he didn't master his strength, it was possible.

The stick in his hand fell to the ground and walked towards Wei Guo Xiang Gao Yuan, at this moment, Gao Yuan, who was sitting on the ground with his stomach covered, suddenly raised his hand and hurriedly waved the short stick to Wei Guo, but a stone still hit him in the chest.

"Hahaha! I've hit you! I hit you!"

Gao Yuan, who was still holding his stomach just now and looked like he was about to die, jumped up, he cheered, and quickly escaped from the range of attack towards Weiguo, and then he rushed back to the house where he and Luo Xingyu lived, and shouted: "Xiaoyu! I hit Uncle Xiang! I got it! ”

Gao Yuan was ecstatic and looked angry to Weiguo, while Luo Xingyu ran out of the door and said loudly, "Really? Are you sure? ”

"Of course it's true! I hit Uncle Xiang! ”

Looking at the ecstatic two, Xiang Weiguo suddenly smiled, he picked up the lofty short stick from the ground, and slowly walked towards the two.

Luo Xingyu looked at Xiang Weiguo and said expectantly: "Uncle Xiang, did Brother Yuan really hit you?" ”

Xiang Weiguo nodded and said, "Although it was a trick, although it was a stone, but he did hit me." ”

Luo Xingyu waved her fist fiercely, and then she said with great anticipation: "That means, we can go on an adventure?" ”

Since the arrival of the aliens, the word exploration, which can be said to have lost its meaning, has regained its relevance.

What is an adventure, going to the nearest village to see is an adventure, because there are villages and there are residents, and having residents means that there are zombies.

According to Gao Yuan's character, he would avoid all unnecessary outings, but now they really need to go to the outside world to collect some supplies, some materials that are impossible to produce in the mountains.

For example, salt, such as soy sauce, vinegar, and monosodium glutamate.

Of course, there are also things like clothes and quilts, because the weather is getting colder and colder, Gao Yuan and Luo Xingyu will be cold when they sleep at night, and even colder when they go out during the day.

There are also agricultural tools such as shovels and hoes, and if you want to plant something after the beginning of spring, then farm tools are of course a must.

So as long as you can go out and collect supplies, it's basically useful to check anything.

The only problem is zombies, because encountering zombies may be dead.

Xiang Weiguo thought about it carefully, then he nodded and said, "I'll go today." ”

Xiang Weiguo has absolute strength and experience, so he is naturally the main among the three people, and now Xiang Weiguo can be regarded as relieved, but he didn't wait long for Gao Yuan to be happy, and he heard a bad news.

"Well, since you really hit me, then the training can be upgraded, Xiao Gao, let's add something to tomorrow's training."

Gao Yuan was dumbfounded all of a sudden, and he said loudly: "No, you just said that if I hit you, you can go out to look for supplies, but you didn't say that there will be any training upgrades after hitting you!" ”

"Well, I didn't say it, but I thought about it a long time ago, if you can hit me, it means that your strength has improved, and if you have improved, of course you should strengthen your training."

"Is this revenge?"

"It doesn't count."

"Obviously!"

Xiang Weiguo smiled silently, looked at Xiang Weiguo with a fierce look, and finally slowly calmed down, people, you still have to accept reality.

No matter what Xiang Weiguo says, no matter what he does, since there is only acceptance, then why bother talking nonsense.

Looking at Gao Yuan's dejected face, Xiang Weiguo was very relieved: "You can quickly judge the current situation, which is not bad, I thought you would have to struggle a little longer." ”

Gao Yuan waved his hand weakly and said, "Say whatever you want, I admit it, I admit it." ”

Xiang Weiguo smiled, and then he said to Luo Xingyu: "Let's get ready today, make a battle plan, and act tomorrow morning." ”

Luo Xingyu said expectantly: "Uncle Xiang, why can't you go today?" ”

Xiang Weiguo said very gently: "Because it's a little late today, when we pack up our things and eat before we set off, it's after ten o'clock near the nearest village, I think the low temperature may have a certain impact on the movement of zombies, so we should set off in the early morning, when the sky is just dawning, there is enough light, and the temperature has not yet come up, and the action is the most appropriate at that time." ”

Sounds quite reasonable, Gao Yuan nodded and said, "Okay, let's act tomorrow, and we will do business as usual today?" ”

Xiang Weiguo shook his head and said: "Who said that everything is business as usual today, today we will go to investigate, first observe the terrain, figure out the situation in the village, and then act directly tomorrow, if it arrives tomorrow morning, we will act directly and look for death?" ”

I like to use military jargon to speak to the country, but it is indeed necessary and the safest thing to do to reconnoiter first.

"So what are we going to do to prepare?"

Luo Xingyu asked curiously, but Xiang Weiguo looked at Gao Yuan and said, "Let's go check the traps, and you go to hunt a few rabbits and pheasants by the way." ”

Luo Xingyu said: "Do you want to eat at noon?" ”

Xiang Weiguo shook his head and said: "No, I plan to bring pheasants and rabbits, in case I meet zombies, or if I am found and chased by zombies, throwing these flesh and blood out may distract the zombies, get these things done in the morning, take a break after lunch, and then go to investigate in the afternoon." ”

Now, for Gao Yuan, hunting a pheasant or a rabbit is no longer a matter of luck.

Gao Yuan's flying stone practice is fast and accurate, as long as he can find the prey, and within the range of Gao Yuan, no small animal can escape Gao Yuan's claws.

Xiang Weiguo has already made a plan, so just follow it.

Breakfast was wild boar, plus a pheasant that was hit yesterday.

Gao Yuan didn't want to change some tricks, but the problem is that after his trap has been improved by Xiang Weiguo, the effect is indeed much better, but hunting is indeed very lucky, this month they have been shocked by two wild boars, the big one has more than 200 catties, and the small one has a hundred catties, so there is absolutely no shortage of wild boars.

Now, Luo Xingyu finally has no interest in wild boar, don't care about the deliciousness, even after eating it for more than a month, no one can stand it.

But the roe deer that the three people were looking forward to was never seen, and it is no wonder that the roe deer in the mountains is much less than the wild boar, and the chance of being on the set is too small.

The traps had to be checked every day, and they had to change their positions frequently, and the three of them were already familiar with doing it again.

But today, it seems that many things have broken through.

Gao Yuan hit Xiang Weiguo with a stone, and Xiang Weiguo promised to go to a nearby village to collect supplies, and it was the first time that a roe deer appeared in the lasso.

Gao Yuan, who was at the forefront, was the first to discover, and then Luo Xingyu shouted excitedly.

"Uncle Xiang! Roe deer! We've got roe deer! ”

A beautiful male roe deer, about forty or fifty pounds, had been strangled to death by a lasso, and lay motionless on the ground.

Everyone was happy with the prey, and Xiang Weiguo couldn't help laughing, and then he was very happy and said: "Yes, there is roe deer meat to eat at noon, let me tell you, roe deer meat is delicious, wild boar can't be compared at all!" ”

Luo Xingyu couldn't help but swallow her saliva, and then she whispered, "Otherwise, let's go to investigate tomorrow?" Let's concentrate on eating meat today, okay? ”
