Chapter 88: Into the Sea
Hu Yi'er is really a lot whiter and has lost a lot of weight. However, she used to exercise too much and was a little strong, but this thinness made her slender limbs, thin waist and thin shoulders, and her round chin was also pointed, which became more in line with the aesthetic standards cultivated by later generations.
The process of bathing is indescribable. In short, among a group of women who have no taboos, Lin Ji also took a bath. It wasn't until the water ran out that one by one put on warm new cotton clothes and changed to another car.
Lin Ji collected the excavator, cleaned the inside and outside of the shower's car, opened the doors and windows and blew in the cold wind. Time freezes in the small town, and if this car is not cleaned, it will still be wet and smelly.
The ice and snow under the car were washed away by the warm water, and they were also knotted with the jet-black animal skins that everyone had replaced.
After cleaning, return to the other chin, and Lin Ji will treat the wounds for everyone, or apply some mutton fat to prevent the skin from drying out.
Lin Ji has seen Pi Jiaoer's body, the problem in the chest is not very big, and the fetus is stable, but the lower body is a little erosive and needs to be recuperated.
Hu Yi'er said with a lot of guilt: "According to your Ji Lin, this child may still be flat, and if it weren't for me, she wouldn't be like this." ”
Pi Jiao'er said with a nonchalant look: "The men of their tribe are not as useful to me. ”
Lin Ji patted Pi Jiao'er, not knowing what to say. I can't help but say that this child has a big life, and after going through so much when he was first pregnant, he is still pregnant well, and he will definitely be terrible when he grows up.
After inspecting Pi Jiao'er, Lin Ji continued to look at the flat gravel.
Both of Pingli's feet are almost useless. A comminuted fracture of one knee that has grown crooked. Under the other knee, both bones were broken and crooked. This kind of injury will be difficult to recover even in future generations, let alone now.
"The best thing to do is to see this off your knee when you have the conditions, and you don't want the rest of it. Let's go back and figure out how to see if we can hold it back. The process can be painful, though. Lin Ji said the solution.
Waiting for the conditions means that after a few years, wait for Shouli or whoever has learned medical skills, and then give it to Pingli. Otherwise, with Lin Ji's current medical skills, when the major arteries are cut, Pingli may die.
Pingli is much more pessimistic than Pi Jiaoer: "Then what's the use of me living?" ”
The mission of the barbarian guard is to fight, and what is the point of living for a barbarian who can't fight? He insisted on living before, just trying to do his part to save Hu Yi'er, if Hu Yi'er was safe, he felt that he no longer had any burden, and just wanted to get rid of things.
Lin Ji comforted: "Life in the future will be different from now, there will be many things suitable for you to do." This time I can hunt, and I will save a lot of people who are disabled like you. They're all living well. Among them were several brute guards. Don't think about it yet, just go back and see. ”
"Moreover, you have a child of your own, and this child will definitely be a strong one in the future. Don't you want to teach your child to be a warrior like you or Pi Jiao'er? ”
After hearing the previous these, Pingli was still a little suspicious, thinking that Lin Ji was coaxing him. He had seen the final killing and maiming of the hunting ground, and he didn't quite believe that Lin Ji had changed the situation.
But when he heard the latter ones, he looked at Pi Jiao'er's stomach again, and his gaze became different.
He had been in Ji Lin, and he knew what Ji Lin said about the relationship between men and children, and he probably didn't care about it at the time. But now that it's about him, he finds himself as excited as his first brother. Looking at Pi Jiao'er's belly is like looking at the whole world.
A little later, Lin Ji collected the deformed minibus and drove the minibus to continue along the ice. After driving a few kilometers, he suddenly found that the car had reached the frozen sea.
Considering that it was difficult for a bunch of people in the car to walk, Lin Ji decided to slowly drive to the place where Hu Yi'er was boiling salt and wait for Fa Arc and the others.
The speed of the car was only ten or twenty kilometers, and the ice surface was relatively flat, and the people in the car finally sat down on their seats and began to look around. One of the dexterous girls ran between the seats, helping everyone tie their braids.
Hu Yi'er sat in the co-pilot, and Pingli and Pi Jiao'er also sat behind them, listening to Lin Ji talk about this year's hunting, or their experience this time.
"When I came to the seaside, I met their tribe, and then I began to dry salt in the way you said...... I didn't think that there would be a big tribe that would dare to come to make trouble, at that time, their tribe only had four clapping people, and there were two small tribes in the back, and there were less than nine clapping hands......" Hu Yi'er said the scene of coming here.
At that time, she didn't realize the problem that the tiger barbarian deterrent could not reach here, so she was naturally still fearless and went her own way. That's about the same as most fledgling people.
"What about the others?" Lin Ji asked.
"Dead, or eaten." Hu Yi'er turned her head to look at the women and children behind her with crooked braids and strange new clothes. She still felt that the experiences of the past few months and the things in front of her were a little illusory.
This kind of gap and ups and downs is something she never thought about in Human, as the daughter of Qingmu.
It was also because of her arrival that this disaster was brought to the tribe of these people. She felt a little guilty. She felt like she was giving them a life of abundance.
Lin Ji also turned his head to look at Hu Yi'er at this time. He found that Hu Yi'er had really changed a lot.
She used to look like a leopard, full of strength, doing things in a hurry, and always maintained a posture of starting without saying a word. Now she has become introverted, warm, and her style of acting is becoming more and more mature, and she has a bit of Qingmu's appearance.
Seeing that Hu Yi'er felt a little guilty, Lin Ji said: "The pain that the Shijing tribe gave us, we will definitely let them return it." ”
"We still can't beat them now, can we? Let's go back to the tribe first? Hu Yi'er asked.
Although Lin Ji had these magical things, she could also see that Lin Ji was actually on the run all the way. And Lin Ji also said that there are actually only a dozen people on the other side, and it is not easy for such a person to deal with the Shijing tribe.
Now drive back along the river, as long as you stop and rest on a sunny day, or it may be feasible. But Lin Ji didn't want to go back.
Lin Ji said: "Since we are here, there is sea water under our feet, let's get some salt and go back." And let our people come here, the road is too far, I want to find some tribes here to cooperate, see if I can rely on the tribes here to deal with the japonica. If it can be done, they can also let the tribes here deliver salt to them in the future. It also allows you not to run in vain. ”
"How?"
"I haven't figured it out yet, I'll go back and wait until I'm with them, and then plan again. Maybe I'll need your help. ”
"Then listen to your ...... We actually got a lot of salt. Cooked. Later, they snatched it away from them, along with the equipment you gave me. Hu Yi'er sighed with emotion.
"It's okay, I still have a lot more." Lin Ji said with relief. Now that even the car is driven, lighters or something, as long as the quantity is controlled, it is nothing to take some out appropriately.
At about 10 o'clock in the morning, the sun was gradually rising, and Lin Ji saw that the ice was showing signs of melting, so he did not dare to go any further, so he had to park his car on the beach to rest.
After eating a bowl of noodle soup in the morning, everyone was already starting to get hungry. Lin Ji turned on the fire again and cooked the noodles, and asked them to eat another bowl each. They can't eat much, so they can only feed their stomachs in small quantities. After that, they will take turns to rest and plan to leave in the evening or in the second half of the night. Anyway, the two sides are not far away, and you may be able to walk in the middle of the night by car.
In the afternoon, Xiaobai squeaked on the roof of the car. Lin Ji was also woken up by Hu Yi'er: "It seems to be a ghost eagle." ”
After Lin Ji got out of the car, the ghost eagle swooped down with an eagle's cry.
The ghost eagle's abdomen was sprayed with the word "demolition", and Hu Yier didn't dare to recognize it. Hu Yi'er's appearance has changed a lot, and the ghost eagle has only been recognized for a long time.
After the two sides recognized each other, the ghost eagle stood obediently like a statue, and let Hu Yi'er touch his head and pull his wings. It couldn't help it, it remembered the fear of being captured.
"Is it bigger?" Hu Yi'er ripped off the wings of the ghost eagle and looked at the big word, as if she had found something different.
Lin Ji said: "Eat too much, get fatter." ”
The weight of the ghost eagle has indeed weighed a lot in the more than a year since it was raised at home. But it's not fat, it's strong.
When it was first caught, it looked like an unkempt, disheveled, scarred, cunning and fierce scoundrel who was snatching food everywhere.
Now that the food supply is stable, it does not have to hunt desperately often, and it has become like a samurai from a rich family, not only majestic and powerful, but also has a bright and neat coat, and its temperament has become handsome.
When Hu Yier saw such a ghost eagle, she naturally touched and scratched, and couldn't put it down.
Lin Ji saw that the ghost eagle's feet began to tremble, and he relieved it and said, "Are the vermilion monkeys nearby?" Bring them here. ”
The ghost eagle got the order, as if it had been pardoned, turned around and ran away a few steps, and suddenly flapped its wings and flew away in an instant.
A little later, there was a figure of people riding on the coast.
Lin Ji silently counted the number of people, and found that there were many people, and immediately relieved: "No one is injured, right?" ”
Fa Arc and the others jumped down from the back of the deer, and said happily: "No, they didn't know why they messed up after you left, and almost no one chased us." Later, we saw that you were walking too fast, so we let the ghost eagle chase after you, and finally we chased after you. ”
It's good for them to come over, the combat power here is limited, and if something happens on the road, Lin Ji will bring a group of women and children, and it will be enough to deal with it.
In the crowd, Jiao Ke walked to Hu Yi'er's side, surprised and guilty. Hu Yi'er had already learned about Jiao Ke's response from Lin Ji, and she praised him quite a lot. Although he didn't find Hu Yi'er when he came out, it was because of him that Lin Ji found himself. This achievement cannot but be praised.
Hu Yi'er praised Jiao Ke and asked him to go to see Pingli, and he pulled Pi Jiao'er around the baby elephant and the bighorn deer full of curiosity, and also had endless likes.
The bighorn deer and the baby elephant have poor physical strength, and they are almost exhausted after running dozens of kilometers. Otherwise, the two of them are afraid that they will go on a ride. Pi Jiaoer naturally doesn't care about her belly, riding or something, it's not a problem for her.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Fa Arc and the others came all the way over and didn't eat, so they moved the cauldron out again, but this time he didn't do it, and after the vermilion monkey learned how to use the gas stove, he turned around the cauldron.
Anyway, it's boiled in white water, there is no technical content, and Lin Ji is happy.
He took out a telescope and stood high on the shore to look around, the coast was naturally a wilderness of ice and snow, and there were no people around. However, he saw that the ice in the sea only stretched out for less than two kilometers, and there was actually blue water outside.
Is this the result of ocean currents? Lin Rui remembers that part of the warm current flows through this area.
Seeing this, Lin Ji ran down from the high place on the shore and shouted: "We won't eat noodles tonight, we will eat seafood!" Let's go, go fishing! ”
Lin Ji shouted lively, and the response of the crowd was enthusiastic, but the preparation time took a little long.
Everyone actually went to the sea, but it was on the afternoon of the second day. The location is Hu Yi'er's boiling salt point.
There are speedboats in the town, but there are no trawls suitable for sea fishing. At the same time, considering the digestion ability of Hu Yi'er and the others, Lin Ji's lively descent into the sea was postponed.
Lin Ji moved a few barricades from the small town and turned them into a small trawl, so that the people who won the fight in the crowd put on life jackets and stepped on the ice to go to the sea.
Walking to the edge of the ice in the sea, where the forest trails made the thin ice under his feet chisel, he drove the speedboat from the small town, and a group of people climbed into the boat and drove the boat into the water.
Lin Ji drove the boat a few kilometers away, so that the people on the boat fully felt what it means to be in the sky and the sea.
"Remember, in this world, the ocean is wider than the land, and the sky is wider than the ocean. You can tell your descendants that after conquering the land, you can conquer the seas and finally the skies. The ultimate journey of mankind is the sea of stars! Lin Ji screamed on the boat, shouting unwillingly.
The sea breeze was very cold, and after a while, everyone began to return to the sea, and at the same time began to disembark.
Look at the location of the fish group, everyone doesn't understand. So it's all up to luck.
As soon as the net went down, Lin Ji drove a speedboat around the sea. Then I felt that it was almost over, so I asked everyone to pull the rope and start the net.
When the rope was pulled first, there was no feeling, and when it reached the position of the net, everyone could feel the net vibrating. When the net is pulled up, you can see a tail hanging in the net.
Forest trails are made of trawls in the shape of a funnel. There is also a cyst at the end.
When I pulled it to the position of the cyst, I could see that the whole piece below was white, and the big and small fish were struggling in it. The fish in it are afraid that there are thousands of catties.
There are so many fish, and these few people on the boat may not be able to drag them. And if it drags on, the big fish inside may break through the nets and escape at any time.
When Lin Ji saw this scene, he immediately decided: "Put it back a little, let's dock first." ”
The nets were lowered back a few meters to keep the fish in the water, and then Lin Ji steered the boat closer to the ice. After breaking some thin ice in front of him and driving into the thicker ice, Lin Ji asked some people to pull the rope of the net to the ice first, and let a few people slowly drag it on the ice, and then a few people stood at the intersection of the ice and the water, and lifted the net to the ice little by little.
After more than half an hour, everyone finally dragged a net of fish the size of a hill to the ice.
After lying on the ice and catching his breath, Lin Ji untied the bag, and the fish poured to the ground.
Big yellow croaker and small yellow croaker are all over the ground, the hairtail fish is almost palm-wide, the yellow-lipped fish baby, the forest traces casually turned out a few, all twenty or thirty catties.
The oceans of this era are much richer than those of later generations.
