Chapter Thirty-Four: Arrival
In the early morning of the day of departure, Liu Lei got up early and carefully prepared things to go to the valley, and Xiao Cui, who also got up very early, sat with red eyes and pouted on the side. Liu Lei firmly refused Xiaocui's request to go with him, which provoked the little girl to bring rain.
Liu Lei put the stuffed burden on his back, walked to Xiao Cui's side and bowed down, touched Xiao Cui's head, and Xiao Cui gently dodged.
Liu Lei opened his mouth and said: "It's really not, I think you're cumbersome, it's too dangerous this time to take you."
Xiaocui whitened Liu Lei with crying red eyes: "You can go, can't I go?" Isn't it dangerous for you to go? ”
Although Liu Lei couldn't bear it, he still shook his head firmly and said: "I must go to this operation, otherwise who will lead the team?" Besides, your injuries aren't healed yet! Good ha, I promise you, I won't be fine"
"You must not lie to me" Xiaocui listened to Liu Lei's words, knowing that Liu Lei would definitely not take him, and said with concern and resentment.
"Pull hook" Liu Lei stretched out the little finger of his right hand.
"Childish" Xiao Cui chuckled and stretched out her hand.
Finally coaxed the little girl, Liu Lei breathed a sigh of relief, opened the door and walked out, closing the suppressed sobbing sound behind him in the door.
"The eldest young master is ready!" Li Tianlong, who had been waiting, saw Liu Lei come out and come over.
Call...... Liu Lei exhaled lightly.
"Let's go!"
The small martial arts training ground in the cottage, the personnel have been assembled, and on the far right are forty young adults from Qingfeng Town, these people are the most numerous, and the weapons in their hands are even more strange, bows and arrows, long knives, firewood knives, and even two people holding farm tools, and the queue is scattered.
In the middle are eight family members wearing a somewhat shabby private army armor, all with uniform long knives in their hands, and they are lined up neatly.
On the far left is a four-man combat group of four expedition teams dressed in professional expedition suits, in addition to all carrying long knives, two people in one group are holding shields, one is holding spears, and the last one is holding bows and arrows.
Liu Lei walked to the simple wooden platform, and the tall figure under the stage hurriedly leaned over to Liu Lei, Liu Lei smiled and touched the head of the war bear, and let it stand aside.
Looking at the three teams with clear positions, Liu Lei took a deep breath and said: "Brothers, folks, we are going to set off today, I don't want to say anything superfluous, the future of Qingfeng Town is in our hands, no matter how terrible the beasts in the valley are, our success or failure is here, let's go!" ”
After receiving Liu Lei's order, the eight expedition members set off first under the leadership of Liu Bushan, who had recovered from his injuries, to lead the way and clear obstacles for the team, Li Tianlong in the middle with thirty people from Qingfeng Town, and Liu Lei and Jia Ding at the end.
Along the way, Liu Bushan, who had good strength, and the members of the challenge team opened the way, and there was no danger, even if there were occasional fierce beasts, the people of Qingfeng Town, who had dealt with wild beasts all year round, did not panic, and finally had more animal skins and meat.
The distance is not too close and not too far, most of the people are dealing with the forest all year round, Liu Lei and the family members are a little behind, and the whole team is still very fast. And the easiest thing in the team is the killer of this operation, Old Man Li.
The treatment of this old man made Liu Lei a little jealous, at this time, the old man Li rode on the broad back of the war bear, and after a while out of the village, the old man used the excuse that he was too old to walk, and he had to ride on the body of the war bear, which caused the war bear to be disturbed for a while, and finally Liu Lei calmed down, and the war bear did not react so violently.
The war bear originally lived in the forest, although he carried a person, but he still walked on the ground, and the thin old man Li could even lie on the back of the war bear, and Liu Lei, who only hated, itched his teeth.
The group hurried and hurried, and finally came to the north entrance of the valley where Liu Lei and the others came out last time before dark. Liu Bushan found a relatively flat place outside the valley mouth as a camping place. A few young girls who could cook in the people were busy preparing dinner. Li Tianlong took his third son to set up some traps nearby to prevent wild beasts from approaching and attacking.
And the old man Li, who had been "paralyzed" on the giant bear, arrived at the camping place, as if he had "cheated the corpse", running around collecting all kinds of plants, and finally said hello to Liu Lei and disappeared into the forest, Liu Lei was not worried, he knew that this mysterious old man was definitely not simple.
Lying on the soft fur of the giant bear, Liu Lei squinted his eyes, soothed his somewhat soreness limbs, and several family members sat not far away according to Li Tianlong's arrangement while resting and protecting Liu Lei.
The smell of dinner slowly wafted away, and the tired people who sat on the ground swallowed their saliva unconsciously.
"Young Master" At this time, Liu Bushan came to Liu Lei's side and said: "The surrounding environment is good, there is no danger, Old Man Li gave me a bottle of medicine saying that it can repel insects and mask our smell, and I also arranged for someone to scatter it nearby."
Liu Lei stood up, patted the soil on his body and asked, "Rong Feng, have they been in touch?" ”
"Someone has already been sent" Liu Bushan pointed to the valley not far away and said: "Rongfeng and a few of them are in the valley, it is estimated that there will be news at night."
"Well, Captain Liu, you work hard at night," Liu Lei said apologetically.
"Young Master, you're serious," Liu Bushan said modestly.
"Don't talk about this, let the brothers eat first" Liu Lei pulled Liu Bushan to sit down, and the family on the side brought the freshly cooked rice.
"Eat together, eat together," Liu Lei said to Liu Bushan.
Tonight's dinner is the dry food I brought, which was simply cooked, and the beasts that were hunted on the road.
Liu Bushan saw that Liu Lei was so enthusiastic, and he was embarrassed to go against Liu Lei's kindness, so he didn't refuse.
"Captain Liu! This harvest in the valley is one-tenth of you," Liu Lei said vaguely as he chewed something in his mouth.
"Ahem, cough, cough" Liu Bushan was choked after listening to Liu Lei's words, hurriedly took a sip of water, and slowed down for a while before saying: "Young master, you can't help it, you gave a lot more last time, saying that you asked us to help for a while, how can you collect money now", Liu Bushan of course knows how much value the resources in a valley will have if they are all developed, although it makes him very tempted, but reason tells him that so much money is not easy to take.
"Let's talk about it again" Liu Lei waved his hand, thinking to himself, even if you don't promise your teammates, can you give up? If you are reluctant to have children, you can't trap a wolf.
Although the dinner was very simple, everyone was satisfied, and most of them fell asleep early because they were tired from the day's journey, and a few tall fires burned near the crowd.
Rubbing his sour eyes, Liu Lei tightened the clothes on his body, he heard a soft sound, looked up, and his face showed joy. I saw that Rong Feng and a few people came back, and they were coming over under the leadership of Li Tianlong.
"Big Young Master" Rong Feng walked up to Liu Lei and whispered hello.
"How's it going in the valley?" Regardless of the greetings, Liu Lei directly asked the question he wanted to know the most, although Liu Lei was very confident in Old Man Li's medicine, but this kind of thing still had to be listened to, and the actual situation was easy to judge.
Listening to Liu Lei's words, Rong Feng's face was a little strange: "Young Master, the three of us have been drugged into the river every day for the past three days, and the effect is very good, that is, ...... It is............
