Chapter 41: The Ideal Campsite

On both sides of the river, the grass is green, and all kinds of unknown flowers growing in it are like flowers dotted on the green carpet, just right. The green grass stretches to the forest on both sides, and there are ancient trees, and there are also overlapping bamboo shadows, as well as the green pines and firs that stand upright, and grow up along the ridge, surrounding the valley for more than ten kilometers. The mountain is not high, about five or six hundred meters, it is very ordinary, there are no strange rocks, but it has achieved such a paradise-like valley.

The valley is very large, looking down from where Xu Qiang and the two are standing, the still water divides the valley into two parts, and you can see all kinds of small animals, herbivores like deer running between the valleys, squirrels jumping among the fruit trees, birds chirping in the forest, and unknown beasts roaring from the depths of the valley. The valley is the lowest at the river and flat on both sides, and then gradually rises to connect with the surrounding mountains. Just like a basin, beautiful and rich, it is an excellent place to survive, and it may also be the living place of Xu Qiang and his life in the future.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Xu Qiang pulled back the fat man Luo who was intoxicated by the beautiful scenery.

"Let's go, fat man, we'll have time to see it later, but now we have to find a foothold tonight, what do you think of the bamboo forest over there? It's the edge of the hillside that would make a campsite or a place for us to live in the future. ”

Xu Qiang pointed to a bamboo forest in the distance, with a radius of dozens of acres, which was completely a sea of bamboo, facing south, growing up along the hillside, and between the bottom of the slope and the quiet pool formed by the waterfall was a plain where weeds and shrubs grew intertwined.

On the other side of the bamboo forest is a lush forest with all kinds of trees, and the weather is getting darker, so you can't see it very clearly. In the middle is a ridge, without tall trees or low shrubs, which separates the two sides into distinct areas, and a small stream flows down the hill through the hillside clearing, and joins the tributaries of the river.

On the edge of the bamboo forest, near the middle of the ridge, there is a relatively flat ground, not far from the stream, not far from the forest, which is really a rare campsite.

Luo Fatzi was also very satisfied when he saw that place, and hurriedly urged Xu Qiang to drive there. There was not much oil left in the tank, and a lot of oil was wasted in the mud, and the fuel gauge showed that it had reached the warning line, but there was enough oil left to get to that place. According to the previous fuel consumption, it can run about 70 kilometers after reaching the warning line.

It was dark, and two bright lights lit up the field, startling countless animals and birds, all the way to the campsite.

Under the light of the headlights, the two men, wearing only pants, used wooden sticks to clean up the surrounding weeds, drive away possible poisonous snakes or insects and scorpions, and after collecting a pile of firewood, they lit a bonfire.

The raging flames burned, not only illuminating this piece of heaven and earth, but also illuminating the last trace of darkness in the hearts of Xu Qiang and Luo Fatzi due to the crossing. The warm flame not only dispelled the chill of the evening, but also warmed the hearts of the two. * With the cold, bring the hope of survival and the yearning for a better life.

Xu Qiang took out two burning firewood from the bonfire, handed one to the fat man, and told him to light the surrounding weeds with him, control the fire and the scope, and clear out a small open space for camping items. After dawn the next day, the surrounding area will be carefully cleaned up, and this will be the place where they lived for a long time after they came to ancient times.

After the weeds were burned, four or five broken bamboo shoots were tied together to make a broom, and the embers in the open space were swept out, and it looked relatively clean. The fat man first made two three-legged stands of suitable height out of six wooden sticks, which were placed on both sides of the campfire, and then took a wooden stick and placed it horizontally on the three-legged support, and if a pot was added, a simple stove would come out.

Here is the structure of the multi-functional military kettle, the multi-functional military kettle is actually the 78-type military kettle, which is composed of a covered lunch box (which can be used for cooking), a kettle and a coat. The lunch box with a lid has a handle, which can be assembled into a handle to be used as a hanging pot (if there is no special description in the future, it will be called a hanging pot), as long as the material is appropriate, it can be used in any environment, strong and durable. In addition, the lid on the lunch box is tight, which can create a pressure cooker effect, and it can easily cook meals even in the high sea area. The aluminum kettle can be placed directly next to the fire to heat and boil water to drink, which is simple and fast. And some people say why not use aluminum lunch boxes? Because aluminum lunch boxes are used as medical boxes.

Luo Fatzi poured about 1L of water from a PVC bucket into the hanging pot, divided a piece of compressed dry food into two halves and put it in the kettle, then added a quarter of a bottle of rice, hung them on a horizontal stick and waited for dinner to be cooked. Finally, fill two kettles with water and place them by the fire to heat them until they boil.

After all this was settled, some stones were found from the surrounding area to surround both sides of the bonfire to prevent the fire from being blown into the grass or mountain forest at night, causing a forest fire. It was a nightmare for the two of them who had experienced a wildfire, and they were reluctant to try again.

Seeing that there was still some time, I was going to build a longer shelf by the campfire to dry the wet clothes of the two of them today. Sitting bareback by the campfire now, hot on one side and cold on the other, it feels like frying salmon

When Luo Fatzi was doing these things, Xu Qiang took out his sleeping bag, tent, and moisture-proof mat, quickly put it in order, and took out three sets of fishing lines from his backpack, and simply made three warning traps above the flat ground where the camp was located and on the left and right sides, so as not to be lurked by some carnivores, and the position below was a pickup truck, which could play a role in blocking. When they are actually settled here, they can build walls and houses, and there is no need to make warning devices.

When Xu Qiang came back, the meal was basically ready. At the end of the day, the two of them had not eaten a single meal, and had only drunk a little water, and were now in a state of hunger and thirst. After everything was cleaned up, the two of them sat down in front of the campfire and began today's talk, with only one purpose: to make a plan.

"Fatty, what do you think we should do next?"

After Xu Qiang added a large piece of wood to the bonfire, he turned his head and asked Luo Fatzi, who was picking his teeth naked.

Luo Fatzi is very thin and contradictory now, but he and Xu Qiang are now two hairy boys who have not dried up, with a body of about 16 years old, but there is a soul of about 28 years old hidden in the body, which is very weird, but it really happened. Xu Qiang thought, could it be that the time was out of order when the two of them traveled through the time and space channel?
