Chapter 2: The clouds are deep and I don't know where
The water flows downward.
People live by water.
Eventually, the mountain stream will merge into the great river below the mountain, and you will definitely be able to see people on the riverside.
A trickle of water guides the way for a lost fish.
As you go, the mountains get lower and lower, and you can already see the occasional deciduous broad-leaved forest in the coniferous forest.
Intuitively, Chen Yu thought that he was likely to be in the depths of the Qinling Mountains.
Mixed coniferous and broad-leaved forests are common in this area.
But when he saw the bamboo, Chen Yu couldn't help but be a little shaken.
It's not that there is no bamboo in Guanzhong, but it is mainly delicate spotted bamboo and ink bamboo, and thick arrow bamboo is very rare, not to mention on the high mountains.
I didn't come from a botanical background, and my geography knowledge was almost all back to my teacher, so it was still a little difficult to judge the location by the vegetation.
If there are ancient buildings, maybe you can still deduce one or two through some clues.
Unfortunately, by noon, there was nothing but the vast forest and the mist, and the occasional sight of birds and animals.
Chen Yu finally realized, what is called-
Only in this mountain, the clouds are deep and do not know where.
However, it is also a good thing to find bamboo, the bamboo pipe can hold water, set it on the fire for a while, and barely have hot water to drink.
It is even more enjoyable to rinse the feet that have already worn blood blisters and have frostbite with hot water.
Along the way, Chen Yu is also looking around, collecting as much food as possible.
Pine nuts are a good thing, fat-rich nuts that are the best way to fuel up.
It was only while the harvest was being picked that a few squirrels were scurrying around the branches, as if in protest.
Chen Yu picked up a bow and arrow and bluffed, and the squirrels were frightened and disappeared into the pine forest in an instant.
And Chen Yu still pulled the bow and drew the string, stunned.
The feeling of pulling the bow is very familiar, and the arrow is wound and aimed, almost in one go.
Chen Yu believes that if it weren't for his last-minute surprise, the arrow would have been off the string, and it was likely that a squirrel would have been hit by an arrow.
The former owner of this body was a hunter who walked through the Yang in a hundred steps?
Ever since he saw the unfamiliar faces in the reflection by the stream, Chen Yu was thinking.
It stands to reason that there should be memories of the original owner in the head, which is also the most direct and true information.
Era, place, identity, situation, interpersonal relationships......
It's a pity that I want to break my head, and I have no impression at all.
There was still a slight pain in the back of his head, which made Chen Yu reasonably guess that maybe the original owner had injured his head and lost his memory!
As for whether it is temporary or permanent, it is difficult to say.
Providence!
It seems that God wants to let himself run around like a blind man touching an elephant in this strange era.
Although pine nuts are good, they can only be regarded as barely satisfying hunger.
Chen Yu was overjoyed when he saw a few swimming fish in the stream pool.
In the wilderness, a grilled fish can undoubtedly fill a full meal and replenish calories and stamina.
But when I sharpened the wooden fork and prepared to fish, there was a strong emotion in my mind.
No fishing, no fishing......
The thought flashed, but it was very strong, and Chen Yu couldn't help but be stunned.
Didn't the original owner eat fish?
Or is there any reverence or taboo for fish?
Not really, right?
Although his name has the word "fish", the original intention of his parents to choose the name was to hope that he would be as happy as a fish in water.
There is no taboo to eat fish, from childhood to adulthood, fish meat, fish soup, steamed, braised and sweet and sour, never broken.
Life is not so messy and poor.
In the end, the wooden fork still stabbed down, and several delicious fatty fish were arrested.
Use a hunting knife to remove the scales, gills, and internal organs, clean it, and grill it on the fire, although there is no seasoning, but the fragrance still makes you want to stop, and your index finger moves.
The grilled fish may not taste good when grilled, but the aged fish is immediately feasted.
The fatty fish immediately warmed my belly, and I felt that my strength was much greater, and my spirit was much stronger.
Maybe it's around the winter solstice!
The days are especially short in the mountains, and the sky darkens early.
Chen Yu had to find a place to rest overnight in advance.
This time, it was chosen on a big tree.
Three thick branches, and a few vines around them, to make sure that you don't fall down if you lean on them.
Then there was no need to worry about the wild beasts, who had not slept long last night because they were worried that the bonfire would go out.
Today, I am already exhausted after trekking through mountains and rivers.
After replenishing calories, the urgent need is to get more sleep.
In this way, we have the strength and spirit to walk out of this uninhabited barren mountains and mountains.
……
When the darkness completely engulfed the earth, Chen Yu fell into a deep sleep among the branches.
In the middle of the night, the howling of wild beasts was still heard, and it even seemed as if a wild beast had walked under the tree.
Fortunately, the big tree was tall enough, and even if the beast found out about Chen Yu's existence, it was helpless.
Thrills.
After this experience, in Chen Yu's eyes, those wild survival and adventure programs are not a matter at all.
If you tell those colleagues and classmates that they have been lying on top of tigers and wolves, they will definitely think that they are bragging.
It's a pity that there is no chance to be "slandered" and braggadocio by them anymore.
Chen Yu sighed, stunned.
Sitting on the trunk of the tree, he secretly observed for a while, and made sure that there were no wild beasts around, and then Chen Yu came down from the tree.
I hurriedly built a fire, roasted two fish, filled my stomach, and set out on the road to the world again.
It is rare that there is no fog today, but the bleak cold wind and the sky covered with lead clouds made Chen Yu very nervous and had to speed up his pace.
The soles of the shoes were worn out, and the blood blisters on the feet were painful.
But he couldn't care about much, and after winding a little vine and weed, he endured the pain and walked forward.
It is self-evident what the consequences of heavy snow closure will be.
If you can't get out of the mountains before the snow falls, or find someone to take refuge in, you'll probably become a frozen ice sculpture in the mountains.
Luckily, I walked all the way and finally saw the house.
Visually, it looked like a temple, but when I entered, I found that the temple had long been dilapidated, and the Buddha statue had collapsed and been damaged.
I haven't even seen a mouse, let alone a person.
However, it is not all without gains, at least according to the historical process of the spread of Buddhism in China, the era can be inferred.
After the Eastern Han Dynasty, it can even be boldly speculated that the Wei and Jin dynasties and later.
However, it is useless, and the timeline is too broad.
And the priorities are more important than time, place, and survival.
However, if you can see the temple, it means that it is very close to the people.
A short walk along, a village came into view.
Chen Yu hurriedly ran in, but after turning around, he panicked.
It's empty, it's a ghost village.
The house was dilapidated and seemed to have been uninhabited for a long time.
What's the situation?
People have moved away?
Or has it experienced wars and plagues?
With a stomach full of questions, Chen Yu continued to hurry.
Thankfully, before evening, Chen Yu walked out of a mountain pass, and his eyes suddenly brightened.
When he saw a plain, especially the stretching road, and the slowly moving ox carts, Chen Yu was so excited that he almost cried.
