Chapter 13: The protagonist has to pick up something good
Li De clutched his knife tightly in one hand, and took advantage of the moonlight in the first month to walk cautiously into the forest, looking back every few steps, and then making a mark on the tree with the knife. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info is the easiest to get lost in the mountains and forests, and you must mark the road when you enter the unfamiliar forest, which is all learned from the mouth of Zhao Lihu in Zhuangli.
After walking for a while, Li Deyi's panicked heart because he entered the mountain alone at night gradually calmed down, and began to pour out his mind and think about what to do at night. In winter, if you can't find a place to shelter from the wind, the cold wind of this night can blow people into ice mounds. If you want to survive tonight, you must first find a sheltered place. After making up his mind, Li had to look around as he walked at first. To tell the truth, on this big night, it was moonlight, and I couldn't see far at all, and whether I could find a place to shelter from the wind or not was all up to luck.
Looking up at the dark sky, thanks to the fact that there was still the first moon in the sky, and he could see the road clearly, Li Deyi grabbed the knife in his hand and continued to walk into the forest.
The cold wind whistling in the forest blew more and more fiercely, and the streams were like knives piercing into people's bones, Li Deyi felt that his little face was shaved painfully, and his clothes were frozen. After walking for a long time and not finding a sheltered place, Li Deyi began to panic a little, and his steps began to be chaotic unconsciously. Rushed for a while in a panic, suddenly stumbled under his feet, and his upper body fell down sharply, Li De suddenly consciously covered his head with his hands, and then there was a whirlwind of the world.
Li De's straight hair was covered by the fall, and he slowed down for a long time, and only got up from the ground with his hands and feet. When I turned my head, I realized that I had just come down a slope. After taking a closer look, the slope was quite large, and there were many trees on the slope, and cold sweat couldn't help but come out, and I said: "If this had rolled onto the tree just now, I would have to break a few bones, and I would have lost a lot of money." "Rolling down from such a big slope, there is nothing to do, but the head is a little foggy, Li Deyi feels that his luck is really not bad tonight.
After standing for a long time, Li Deyi violently touched his body with his hand, and muttered in his mouth: "Where's the knife?" What about knives? It's broken, it must have just come down from the slope, and I don't know where it fell. The more he couldn't find it, the more panicked he became, and in the end, Li Deyi had no choice but to pinch the flesh on his inner thigh, and forced himself to calm down with pain.
Touching the tears that came out of the pain, I turned my head and began to slowly look up the slope, and after looking for a while, I finally found it under the root of a tree. Li Deyi swooped down and picked up the knife, carefully saw that it was not broken, and carefully put the knife away, but this time he didn't dare to hold the knife in his hand anymore, so it was better to stick it behind his waist instead.
Don't put the knife away, and when she looked up again, Li Deyimei almost laughed, it turned out that there was a big hole under the tree. Li Deyi is worried about where to rest tonight, so don't worry about it now. I went all the way down the slope and lost the knife, and finally I was able to find a tree hole, which was also the best luck. Li Deyi was just about to go in, and remembered that Zhao Orion had said that you should be careful when you encounter a hole in winter, don't be busy drilling into it, it is likely that there will be a black blind man sleeping inside, and it is not a joke if you wake up.
Reach out and grope for a small branch on the ground, and poke into the hole little by little, the hole is not deep, and it is easy to probe the bottom. After testing for a long time, Li Deyi felt that it was okay, so he climbed into the hole, and tried it just enough to lie inside, and there was still room to turn over. Li Deyi lay down and rested for a while, then got up and came to the outside of the cave, picked up some dead branches, and made a fight, rested at the entrance of the cave, and covered them with blood, so that if something came over in the middle of the night, he would step on these dead branches and make a sound.
It's already the middle of the night, and Li Deyi has been tossing for so long, he is already tired and sleepy. I couldn't care much more, so I went into the hole and fell asleep.
In a secret place not far from the entrance of the cave, the big fat man Wang took out a small tin pot, took a sip of wine, smacked his lips, watched Li Deyi get into the hole, and said in his heart: "The little doll is stupid and bold, dare to drill into it if you find a hole, and you are not afraid of being blocked in the hole by wolves at night." After looking at it carefully, this hole turned out to be the one who caught the black blind man a few days ago, opened his mouth, and said in a muffled voice: "This little doll is stupid and lucky." There is still a bear smell in this cave, and most wolves dare not come. After eating the meatloaf in his hand in two bites, he was not too cold, so he pulled a snow nest and rolled it in, and fell asleep directly.
Li De didn't sleep well all night, and he didn't dare to sleep steadily, in the deep mountains and old forests, fierce beasts infested, and he had to pay attention. Before dawn the next day, Li Deyi woke up, his stomach growled, and he was woken up by hunger.
Listening to the rumbling sound in his belly, Li De regretted at first that he was too honest yesterday and didn't secretly make a rabbit sleeve and take it into the forest. After a while, I was so hungry that I had no choice but to crawl out of the hole and look around to see if I could come across some wild fruit or something. However, Li Deyi knew that the snow covered the ground, and it was basically useless to pick up some wild fruits to eat, and he couldn't wait to eat them if he stayed in the cave, so he had to go out and wander around, trying his luck to pick up something.
After wandering around for a long time, Li Deyi didn't find anything to stutter, and it was extremely difficult to walk on knee-deep snow. Hunger kept stimulating Li Deyi's Five Organs Temple over and over again, and Li De, who was dizzy with hunger, walked the Luoquan Road at first, and when he walked back to the hole where he rested last night for the third time, the sky was already bright.
As soon as Li De arrived here, he saw that someone had carved words on the bark at the entrance of the cave, "Wang Zhuangbiao is here" The last word "swim" was half written, probably not able to write, and he cut it with a knife and wrote the word "go". Together, one thought is "Wang Zhuangbiao is here to go". It turned out that this was the hole where the big fat man caught the black blind man, Li Deyi suddenly realized, and remembered the tall and fat abnormal body shape of the big fat man in his mind, and said in his heart: "I didn't expect to meet a 'tall man' in the old forest, not only tall but also fat enough." It is not in vain that I can meet the handwriting left by the 'master' on this trip. ”
Wang Zhuangbiao was a hero-like figure in Li Deyi's heart, and when he saw the big hero lettering, Li Deyi felt that Wang Zhuangbiao's tall and complete image in his heart had a slight crack.
There was a rumbling sound in his stomach again, and Li Deyi knew that it would be dangerous if he didn't eat something, and he would definitely not be able to hold on. He had to make a decision before he could still have the strength to walk back, Li Deyi held on to the tree and rested for a while, gritted his teeth, and began to walk back.
Walking to the bottom of the slope that rolled down last night, Li Deyi gasped, this big slope has to be five or six zhang high, and it is very steep, at this time Li Deyi felt that he rolled down the slope last night, and there was nothing to do with his body, and his life was really big.
If you can't find the mark you made on the tree, the strong wind of the night has already blown away the footprints left on the snow, and now you are so hungry that you are dizzy for a while, and when the time comes to take the wrong road, you will really die. After settling down, Li De climbed up the slope with his hands and feet at first, and there were many trees on the slope, so that Li Deyi could rest and breathe a sigh by leaning on a tree from time to time.
Several times, Li had to slip on the soles of his feet, but he didn't roll down by clinging to the tree trunks around him. Grabbing a bowl-thick tree trunk on the top of the slope, Li Deyi used his last strength to finally climb the steep hillside. Climbing up, Li Deyi lay directly on the snow, panting heavily, unable to exert any strength at all. With his tired right hand, he put some snow on the ground and put it in his mouth, slowly turned into water and swallowed it, and after a while, Li Deyi gathered enough strength to get up.
Li Deyi is now hungry and tired, and he can't help but fight with his eyelids, and he is about to fall asleep. In a daze, Li Deyi suddenly smelled a pungent fishy smell, opened his eyes suddenly, and saw a wolf smelling on himself, and the saliva with a fishy smell in the wolf's mouth was dripping on his body.
This scared Li Deyi a lot, "whooped" in his throat, and shouted out in fright: "My mother-in-law." I don't know where I got the strength, and I suddenly jumped more than two feet high. Li Deyi's movement, in turn, frightened the wolf, and the wolf turned his head and ran back.
Li Deyi also wanted to run, but he stood still and didn't move. Because my legs and stomach are no longer obedient, I really don't have the strength to run. The wolf ran back a few steps, turned his head to see that Li Deyi was not moving, and turned around and walked slowly.
At this time, Li De was trembling with fear at first, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. Stretched out his hand and tried to pull the knife out of his waist, but his hand trembled two or three times and didn't pull it out. Li Deyi bit the tip of his tongue desperately, forced himself to calm down with severe pain, and began to think of a way in his head.
Suddenly, I remembered what Zhao Lihu said, "When you encounter a wolf in the mountains, you can't be cowardly, no matter how afraid you are, you have to stare at the wolf's eyes." Thinking of this, Li Deyi hurriedly stared at the approaching wolf. The wolf was stared at by Li Deyi, and couldn't help but grin open, revealing its sharp wolf teeth, and let out a low howl, trying to scare Li Deyi. Then the wolf leaned down, and slowly approached Li Deyi more carefully, ready to pounce at any time.
As the wild wolf continued to approach, Li Deyi was forced to slowly move his steps back, retreating little by little, trying to distance himself from the wolf. But he didn't dare to run reflexively, knowing that he would definitely not be able to outrun the wolf, so he could only make himself easier to be pounced on by the wolf from behind.
Since all his energy was focused on the wolf in front of him, Li Deyi forgot that behind him was the high slope that he had just climbed. The right foot that slowly retreated suddenly stepped half empty, and the upper body leaned back, and the whole body lost its balance and fell towards the bottom of the hill. The wild wolf seized this opportunity, exerted his limbs, and with a whining sound, he pounced on Li Deyi.
Li Deyi, who was falling backwards, suddenly felt a fishy wind rushing towards him, and at this moment, Li Deyi gritted his teeth, used his strength to eat, pulled out the knife on his waist with his right hand, and then used all his strength to hand it up with both hands.
The wolf grazed Li Deyi's scalp and pounced, Li Deyi felt the knife in his hand cut through the wolf's flesh, and the bloody and warm wolf blood sprayed Li Deyi's face all over his body. Li Deyi got mixed with the wolf, fell heavily on the high slope, and then went down the slope to the bone.
With a bang, a man and a wolf smashed heavily under the roots of a tree, and the snow on the tree fell down in large pieces. The cold snow smashed on Li Deyi's face and neck, and Li Deyi, who was in a semi-comatose state, was shocked and woke up. I looked up and down my body first, and found that only my clothes were torn a few times by the wolf's claws, and I was a little dizzy except for my head, but I was miraculously not injured.
I secretly said that it was dangerous, and I shook my head vigorously to drive away the dizziness. Li Deyi felt that he was holding something on his back, reached out and touched his back, touched the blood and hair on his hand, turned his head and looked back, it turned out that the wolf had used himself as a backrest, and one person and one wolf fell under a tree.
Li Deyi's previous knife took advantage of the wolf's forward momentum to cut open the wolf's belly, and after squeezing it again, the wolf's internal organs flowed out. After being so badly injured, the wolf was not even dead, and he still howled and struggled non-stop. Li Deyi looked at the wild wolf on the ground that was not yet dead, and remembered in his mind what the veteran who taught him to kill sheep said: "People are the same as animals, and the throat is the most fragile. ”
After steadying his breath, Li De pulled out a knife, grabbed the handle of the knife with both hands, and stabbed the wolf in the neck. This knife Li Deyi has practiced on sheep and is very familiar. With a knife, the sharp blade directly cut through the wolf's trachea and the nearby flesh, and the wolf's blood kept coming out along the knife edge, and the wolf seemed to know that he was going to die, and he struggled even more at this time.
The rumbling sound of his stomach forced the hungry Li Deyi, and after a little hesitation, Li Deyi leaned over and put his mouth on the bloody wound on the wolf's neck, and began to drink the wolf blood that was flowing out.
The first mouthful of wolf blood entered his stomach, and the fishy smell almost made Li De vomit it again and again, but he forced himself to drink it because he had to endure it. After drinking a few mouthfuls of warm wolf blood and gaining strength, Li Deyi took a knife and reached into the broken wolf's belly, and began to cut off small pieces of wolf meat, which he couldn't wait to send to his mouth.
Wang Da Fat witnessed the whole process not far away, and several times took out the ancestral gold brick in his arms, put it back in his pocket, and held it back. At this time, seeing that Li Deyi not only killed the wolf, but also began to drink wolf blood and eat wolf meat raw, nodded, and said in his heart: "This kid is calm and cerebral at a critical time, and he is ruthless." Yes, yes, it's a good piece. ”
After eating a few pieces of wolf meat, he gradually felt that he had strength in his body, and Li Deyi stopped eating it. After all, it's raw, and the meat is fishy and hard, not so hungry that I can't swallow it. According to the method of skinning the sheep, he skinned the wolf, and put the wolf skin around his body, and suddenly felt a lot warmer.
Li Deyi stood up and giggled around the wolf skin, and couldn't help but turn around again. At this time, the child's heart was revealed, and he played in wolf skin for a while.
After playing for a while, he seemed to remember something important again, and Li Deyi sat down and cut the wolf meat into several large pieces and carried it around with wolf skin. Such a big bloody qi can easily attract other fierce beasts, and Li Deyi doesn't know if there are other fierce beasts in this mountain, so he must find a place to bury the remaining internal organs. Holding the wolf's entrails and water in his hands, Li De walked into the forest at first, walked out quite far, dug a snow pit and buried it. Then he wiped the wolf blood on his body with snow.
After eating wolf meat and gaining strength in his body, Li Deyi leaned against the tree and began to think wildly. "You don't have to go into the woods anymore, such a big wolf, the meat on his body is at least dozens of catties, and it can't be broken in the cold, so I don't have to worry about eating in the past three days." There's a hole here, and the big fat man has been here, and there's a place to sleep at night, so I have to get something to cover the hole during the day. ”
At first, Li had to find some finger-thick branches, cut them down with a knife, put them together, and then cover them with snow, and then made a good job. If you take the crude fence that can't be called a 'gate' and compare it to the entrance of the hole, it can be covered, and under the cover of snow, you can't find it if you don't look closely at it.
Nodding with satisfaction, Li Deyi walked around the cave a few times, digging a few snow pits in several positions, building branches on them, and then covering them with snow. It is impossible to use such a shallow pit as a trap, Li Deyi just hopes that a mountain beast will step on it and make a movement, so as to remind himself of it.
After carefully arranging the surroundings, Li De returned to the cave, made the fence block the hole, and fell asleep. As soon as he fell asleep, Li Deyi got up again, and whispered in his mouth, "On such a cold day, the wolf meat will freeze like an ice lump for a while, and I won't be able to bite it anymore, so I have to think of a way." ”
Knocking his little brain melon with his hand, Li had to think about the trick at first. "By the way, I'll put the wolf meat in my arms for the next meal, don't let the meat freeze, and put the rest in the wolf skin, so that if there is meat to eat, the rest of the meat will not be broken." As soon as he said it, Li De picked up the knife, measured out a piece that was enough for his next meal, and began to cut with the knife. After such a while, the wolf meat was already frozen, and it took a lot of effort for Li Deyi to cut off a piece and put it directly in his arms.
As soon as he put it in, Li Deyi grinned and made a "hiss, hiss" movement, which turned out to be frozen by this piece of cold wolf meat. After a while, the wolf meat was not so cold, and Li Deyi fell to the ground again and fell into a deep sleep.
The big fat man Wang in the distance watched Li Deyi do these jobs meticulously, and nodded, "The little doll is not big, and her heart is quite thin." ”
Three days later, in the evening, with a wolf skin on his back and the remaining wolf meat in the wolf skin, Li Deyi walked back to Dingbei County from the forest. Doctor Xiao Liu was already waiting at the gate of the city early, and he watched Li Deyi lose a lot of weight from afar, but the whole person seemed more energetic.
Doctor Xiao Liu walked up and touched Li Deyi's head, saw the wolf skin behind him, and said appreciatively: "You beat it?" That's good, it's pretty good. Li Deyi was praised like this, raised his head proudly, waved his little hand, and said with a shy face: "That's it, master, I also studied under the two famous teachers, but I don't dare to fall into the prestige of the third grandfather and grandpa grandpa." It's just a wolf, a trifle, a trifle. ”
Doctor Xiao Liu endured it several times, but finally couldn't hold back, raised his hand and gave Li Deyi's head a bag, "Where did you come from, master!" Don't be scared, hurry back and take a shower and rest, Master and his old man are waiting for you. ”
Li Deyi held a bag on his head, and honestly followed Dr. Liu's ass back to the wounded barracks. As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw Wang Da Fat Man squeeze out of the tent door, and Wang Da Fat Man also saw Xiao Liu Medical Officer and Li Deyi at this time. Wang Da Fat Man hugged his fist at Doctor Xiao Liu, and then grinned at Li Deyi, laughing, staring at Li De and nodding all the time.
Looking at the big mouth that was close at hand, and then looking at the smile of the big fat man Wang, the flesh on his face was squeezed in the middle, his eyes were directly squeezed out, and there was only a big mouth left, Li Deyi was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, and secretly tugged on the sleeve of Medical Officer Liu. When Dr. Xiao Liu looked back, he understood what Li Deyi meant, and slapped directly on the back of the fat man Wang, with a crisp sound.
Doctor Liu said, "Look at your smiling face, don't frighten the child." Hurry up, go. "Push the king out with both hands, the big fat man. When Wang Da Fat was kicked out of the camp, he didn't forget to turn his head and give Li De a smile.
In the end, this smiling face frightened Li De's stomach twitched a little, and he thought: "I have killed all the wolves, why are you still so scared when you see Wang Da Fat?" Then he thought about it: "Oh, people can kill a bear with their bare hands, what is my wolf, and I should be afraid." ”
The little doctor next to him comforted: "Don't be afraid, the big fat man has made a breakthrough in the realm in the past few days, allowing him to cultivate the White Tiger Dao, and the original qi of his body has gradually turned into a killing qi." The White Tiger Dao Master killed, he had just broken the mirror, and he couldn't control the original qi in his body at will. Having said that, you can face Wang Da Fat and feel the murderous aura emanating from him, which proves that your qualifications are okay. ”
As soon as Li De heard that Dr. Xiao Liu praised his qualifications, he immediately trembled again, and his mouth followed with a sentence: "That's quite ......" In fact, he was frightened by the terrifying smile of the big fat man. "Smack" Doctor Liu was not polite, and gave another slap according to the door of the head, "Don't be scared, go in, my master is waiting for you." ”
As soon as I entered the tent, I saw the old doctor Sun sitting upright on a chair in the middle, and the whole tent was filled with a solemn atmosphere. Li Deyi tidied up his clothes, held his little face, and walked straight forward to salute: "Grandpa Sun, grandson salutes you." As he spoke, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times. Old Medical Officer Sun nodded, "Li Pingbei has a good grandson." I have heard Wang Zhuangbiao say about your performance in the forest in the past three days, well, it is very good. You don't knock these three heads in vain, I accepted you as an apprentice on behalf of your third grandfather. Medical Officer Xiao Liu handed it to Li Deyi from behind with a cup of tea, and said to Old Medical Officer Sun, Li Deyi thought, "Master, please drink tea." ”
As soon as Li De finished the tea, he obediently stood aside, but his heart was open: "How does the fat man Wang know what I am doing in the forest?" Old Medical Officer Sun saw Li Deyi's doubts and said: "Although I let you enter the forest alone, I also arranged for Wang Zhuangbiao to secretly protect you, and he told me everything you did in the forest just now." Old Medical Officer Sun explained slowly, Li Deyi looked at Grandpa Sun with wide eyes, and an expression of 'oh' appeared on his face.
"Go down and rest first, and meet me on that little mound outside the city tonight." After the old doctor Sun finished speaking, he closed his eyes and recuperated, and no longer paid attention to Li Deyi. Doctor Xiao Liu came over and patted Li Deyi on the shoulder, "Don't be stunned, come with me and take a good shower." Li Deyi followed Dr. Liu to the smaller tent next to him.
"What does this smell like, so stinky?" Li Deyi pinched his nose and asked. "The medicine I picked up in the mountain before was concocted, and today I used it, and they are all external medicines that relax the muscles and invigorate the blood, and they are all put in this basin of bath water." Doctor Liu replied.
"Fortunately, it's not a medicine to drink, otherwise such a big pot would have to be drunk for many years." Li Deyi was secretly glad that he was about to go in after taking off his clothes, holding on to the edge of the basin and asking Doctor Xiao Liu: "I won't smell like this medicine after I wash it." Doctor Xiao Liu deliberately scared him, "That's not easy to say, it's the first time I concocted this medicine, and you are the first person to make it." "Ahh Then can I not wash it......" Li De didn't finish his words, and was directly kicked into the basin by Dr. Xiao Liu, "Where is there so much nonsense, ordinary people don't have a chance to take this bath, don't be crooked." ”
Before leaving, Doctor Xiao Liu said, "After washing yourself and putting on new clothes, I will put them aside for you." Leaving Li Deyi in the bathtub carefully rubbing the ashes on his body, he was afraid that he would rub it hard, and the smell would never be removed. Li De muttered while rubbing: "What can I do if I get this smell?" After a while, he muttered: "It's good to get this smell, and when I fight the Tuliao people in the future, I will stand in front of the battle, and all the Tuliao people will have to cover their noses with one hand." The Tuliao people who beat one hand, I can take advantage of a lot. After muttering, in the end, it was the child's heart, and he actually played with the water happily.
After playing for a while, Li Deyi seemed to remember something, "No, the Tuliao people cover their noses, and the people here also have to cover their noses, except that I don't have to cover myself, hey, it seems that I still can't take advantage of anything." Thinking of this, after washing it a few times, he quickly jumped out of the bucket.
After taking a shower and changing into clothes, Li Deyi walked to the sleeping tent, smelling whether he had the stench on his body as he walked. Halfway through the walk, he was seen by Dr. Xiao Liu, "Don't smell it, Master has already instructed me to give you this kind of bath every seven days in the future." It didn't smell at once, but after washing too much, it was there, and it was the same as pickled salted meat. As soon as Li De heard this, his face immediately changed, his head drooped, and he walked listlessly back to the tent where he was sleeping.
After sleeping until midnight, Li Deyi suddenly felt a chill all over his body, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that Dr. Xiao Liu was standing in front of him. "Don't sleep, come with me, have you forgotten what Master said about something important tonight?" Li De got together, began to dress neatly with his hands and feet, and asked in his mouth: "What the hell is going on, can you tell me Brother Liu?" ”
"Don't ask, you'll know when you get there, come with me." As he spoke, Dr. Xiao Liu pulled Li Deyi up, and the two walked out together.
Tonight, the moon is sparse in the sky, and the moonlight of the first month reflects on the snow, reflecting a soft white light, making the whole night quiet and empty.
