"The shout is the silence that erupts, and the silence is the silent call. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info whether agitated, or quiet. I pray—as long as it's not bland! If the distance cries out to me, I go to the distance; If the mountain beckons to me, I will go to the mountain. Feet worn out, simply let the sunset smear the path; If your hands are scratched, you can simply turn the thorns into cuckoos! There is no road longer than feet, and there is no mountain higher than people! ”

Wu Rui recited "The Mountain is High and the Road is Long", with a bit of embarrassment in his heroism.

This Wang Guozhen became famous, of course, from Jin Tong's "Wilderness Collection". After completing the "New Moon Chapter" and "Fog Hidden Chapter", he was still unsatisfied, and added several modern poems, which were compiled as "Addendum".

"The Mountain is High and the Road is Long" is the finale, and it was loved by Wu Rui as soon as it came out. Whenever things didn't go well and he was in a bad mood, he would look to the south and chant "There is no road longer than the foot, and there is no mountain higher than the man."

The reason why the leader of the revolutionary group sighed helplessly was because, after Xu Jingjing, they lost two more comrades.

Zhao Ying, a girl majoring in fine arts, has been very low-key since she came to the wasteland. She doesn't like to talk, she doesn't like to show off, and she does every task given to her well.

After the granary was completed, she was responsible for counting the remaining rations.

When she found a nest of rats in a crevice in the rock next to the tall warehouse, she took it seriously and destroyed the nest of the small animals with a stick.

Then she fell ill, fever, nausea, head, eyes, chest, abdomen, and waist, and there was no pain in her body.

At first, she didn't expect that the fever was related to mice, but Li Jiantong, a medical student, took care of her and found that the skin of her face and neck was red, and the conjunctiva of her eyes was also congested, as if she was drunk, and immediately became suspicious.

When asked about her experience before she got sick, she accidentally mentioned mice. Li Jiantong immediately examined his chest, back, and armpits, and found bleeding spots of varying sizes.

"Hemorrhagic fever!"

The source of this infectious disease, which has a very high mortality rate, is generally small rodents.

Wu Rui did a good job of protection, inspected the rock crevices near the tall warehouse, and identified it as a nest of "Dalin Ji Mouses" based on the remaining hair.

The stilt warehouses were abandoned, and they transferred supplies. A fire burned down the grove next to the camp that had been cut down to the ground.

At the same time, Zhao Ying was quarantined.

Her body temperature began to drop and she went into shock from time to time.

There were many herbs in the wilderness, none of which could save her.

Jin Tong knew that hemorrhagic fever was caused by the "hantavirus", and that the vaccine for that virus was only successfully developed in the 21st century.

Li Jiantong and He Xinru, two medical students, tried every means to boil many herbal decoctions, but they failed to save this young life.

Zhao Ying lost her heartbeat and breathing in a coma and passed away.

It was wilderness after all, and they did their best.

The pioneers cremated her, put her ashes into a brick kiln fired jar, and buried next to Xu Jingjing.

The third person to pass away was Li Jiantong, but the culprit was not an infectious disease. He died absurdly by a wolf's kiss, but it all started with fishing.

Low-yield, inefficient hunting has long since ceased, and meat must be ensured, with fishing as the only option.

For thousands of years, the fish of the Great Northern Wilderness have grown on their own. With such an abundant resource, it would be a fool not to take advantage of it.

The lakes on the eastern side of the moor are not completely cut off from each other, and there are always streams that lead to the rivers further east.

In April and May, the lake's sturgeon migrates to the streams to their seed-producing fields. It is common to see a large number of sturgeons, more than one meter, which is suitable for rifle hunting.

When the work was assigned, Jin Tong and Wu Rui took the initiative to ask for help and made a military order of "guaranteeing to fight 30 catties of fish".

So Wu Rui sent Cao Dong to go fishing with him.

The two entered the eastern lake area, carefully explored the way, avoided falling into the mire, and found a small river.

Jin Tong found a ash tree on the shore, climbed to the tree, and aimed his gun at the water. Cao Dong is ready to respond under the tree.

After guarding for half an hour, I finally waited for a big fish.

As soon as the gun rang out, Cao Dong couldn't wait to jump into the kneeless water, but he didn't see the fish come out for a long time, he looked up and asked Jin Tong if he was sure if he had calculated the refractive index of water.

As soon as he finished asking, the Zheluo fish with his head crashed into his leg, and he quickly picked it up and hugged it.

hugged the fish and went ashore, and Cao Dong realized that it was too cold. The stream was too cold, and he shivered, and his teeth "clicked" like a machine gun.

Jin Tong said that it would be hot when he ran. He threw the fish into the grass and ran around the tree for ten minutes before relieving himself.

An hour later, another one was hunted.

Two fish, each of which weighed seventeen or eight pounds. After taking it back to the camp, everyone was excited. In particular, a small fish weighing a pound was cut out of the belly of a fish, which was really unexpected.

However, rifle hunting fish can only be done occasionally in the "reproductive migration season" of the Zheluo fish, and the normalized fishing has to rely on the "fish liangzi".

It was He Gongda who contributed this ancient method. He grew up in a village near the river as a child, and he was no stranger to fishing and casting nets, and he had seen people use this fishing method.

Since there are no fishing nets in the wilderness, fishing is time-consuming and the yield is small, so he can only choose the "fish liangzi" that He Gongda has never practiced.

To put it simply, Yuliangzi is to set up fish fences in river forks and small rivers with narrow water flows.

Insert wooden poles and bamboo foil in shallow water, as if a fence wall is tied up on the surface of the water, and the fish will not pass through the water, leaving only a small exit, and the fish will "throw themselves into the net" with a wicker basket.

At first, there was no harvest for several days due to the wrong location. After all, a small stream between lakes is not a big river.

After more than ten days of experiments, after a certain amount of experience, Yuliangzi began to play a role, and it can catch dozens of catties of fish every night.

But the good times did not last long, and the harvest fell rapidly, with only a few small fish toads per day.

Could it be that the fish have been caught?

Bu Yi went to investigate, and soon found that Yu Liangzi was densely covered with wolf paw prints.

Everyone suddenly realized that there were wolves stealing fish.

"The wolf lamb is quite good at picking up ready-made." Cao Dong suggested sending two gunmen to ambush Yu Liangzi and beat him hard at night.

Bu Yiren shook his head and said, "As the old saying goes, the wolf's nose smells three miles from the wind." The smell of sweat and gunpowder, as soon as it smells it, it hides away. Didn't the ambushers feed the mosquitoes in vain? ”

"What then?" Cao Dong asked.

"Dig a wolf hole!" Step one person to the point.

She followed the trails and found a hole in the dirt. There was a slip of grass at the entrance of the cave that had been trampled flat, which was a sign of a wolf's den.

Bu Yiren, Mao Zhigang, Li Jiantong, Cao Dong, and Jin Tong, plus two horses and five dogs, formed a wolf fighting team.

The wolf's cave is on the edge of a forest not far from the fishing spot.

Bu Yiren smeared some plant juice on his head and face, and observed it closely. Not long after, she returned to the woods and greeted the others.

"There's a she-wolf who just came out of the woods and got into a hole!"

The wolves approached quickly, but the wolves never came out.

Cao and Jin raised their guns to be on guard, Mao and Li dug holes with shovels, and one person poked into the hole from time to time with a tree stick.

Five dogs barked around the hole. The three puppies were teenagers, close to the size of adult dogs, and their roars were loud.

At this time, an old wolf came out of nowhere, staring at a few people from a distance.

The two old dogs immediately ran out to chase away, but the old wolf was very nimble and ran away with the dogs.

Jin Tong wanted to catch up and help, but Cao Dong grabbed him, "Two to one, win steadily!" ”

Because the soil is soft, it digs quickly. It didn't take long for Buyi to feel the tree bars being dragged in.

"Biting!"

She told the others to back off and continued to poke herself. The wolf was desperately biting at the tree in the hole and trying to climb out.

Feeling that the time had come, Bu Yiren stretched out his right hand to Jin Tong, "Give me the gun." ”

Jin Tong loaded the bullet and handed it to her.

One of the steps let go of the branch, put the barrel into the hole, and probed a few times. Wait for the wolf to bite the muzzle of the gun and shoot directly.

The gunfire was muffled. There was no movement inside.

She poked twice more, stood up, and returned the gun to Jin Tong.

"If you're dead, dig with a shovel."

Didn't dig much. And I saw something furry. A person stepped forward and pulled it, and the wolf corpse more than one meter long was carried out.

The others felt strange and touched it. The two dogs also circled around the wolf corpse, looking excited.

Only Jin Jing's favorite "little white dog" guarded the wolf cave and still couldn't take his eyes off it.

Buyi pointed to the wolf hole, "There must be a small one!" ”

Digging deeper, two gray-brown, chubby wolf cubs ran out of their holes.

The little white dog pounced on a tiger and picked up one. The remaining one, which ran a little further away, was also surrounded by four dogs.

Li Jiantong picked up a bargain, threw down the shovel and reached out to pinch the wolf cub's neck, and lifted it up.

The first battle was won, and the five were full of joy.

At this point, the low howl of the hounds in the distance turned into a shrill wail.

They felt that the situation was not right and decided to evacuate first.

Li Jiantong picked up the two wolf cubs, Bu Yiren and Mao Zhigang went to lead the horses, and Jin Tong and Cao Dong called the two dogs back while pressing the bullets.

But the dog did not come back, the old wolf returned. It was slightly lame on one of its hind legs and had blood on its neck.

Undeterred, the three juvenile dogs ran towards it. They had barely run a few steps when three more wolves emerged from the grass behind the old wolf, each with blood stains on the side of their mouths.

Three-on-four, to lose!

"!"

Jin and Cao picked up guns and fought.

The two exerted their strength far beyond the military training shooting assessment, shooting, pulling the bolt, shooting, pulling the bolt, shooting, pulling the bolt......

Two people, two guns, ten rounds of ammunition each, poured out in less than thirty seconds.

Two wolves were shot in the head, one was seriously injured and not dead, dying, and the old wolf also lay on the ground and did not move.

"Gone?" Jin Tong held the empty gun and turned his head to ask Cao Dong.

"It's gone." Cao Dong let out a sigh of relief and sat on the ground.

The old wolf stood up in the surprised gaze of the five people, shaking his hair, and there was not a single bullet hole on his body.

The three dogs stopped and watched, as if they were not needed for this fight.

The old wolf raised his head to the sky and roared, and five more wolves came out of the woods, and five came out of the grass.

"Blocking back and forth!"

Cao Dong took out the last five bullets in his pocket, "How many did you bring?" ”

"Ten more rounds." Jin Tong began to reload.
