Chapter 235: Giant Catfish Group

At the firelight, Zhang Cheng and the sergeants waited anxiously, because almost everyone had already come over except for Lin Bei.

"Don't put out the torches, light a few more torches so that the adults can see them." Zhang Cheng roared, his voice a little hoarse.

The first torches were made of pine wood, because the oil of the pine tree was very sufficient, and later the times progressed, and in order to make the torch can be used in rainy days, the torch was coated with animal fat, generally cattle and sheep fat, and it was also this kind of torch when it was in Xishan Township before, and now Wanghai City is located by the sea, and the butter torch has also become a fish oil torch, Zhang Cheng feels that the fish oil torch is not as good as the butter can withstand the rain, and it is easy to extinguish, in fact, this is just Zhang Cheng because he was in a hurry, so he just found a reason casually.

Lin Bei dragged the tree to the vicinity of the firelight and heard Zhang Cheng's roar, and said that this Zhang Cheng was quite reliable.

The sergeants and Zhang Cheng heard the sound of rushing water, and they all looked in the direction of Lin Bei, and Lin Bei shouted Zhang Cheng.

"Your Excellency, you're back." Zhang Cheng rushed over excitedly, at this time, Lin Bei, the backbone, could never have an accident.

The sergeants rushed forward and helped the three people down the tree, Lin Bei pointed at the sergeant just now with his tail, and said to Zhang Cheng: "He is very good." ”

The sergeant suddenly became excited, forgot about his exhaustion, and stood up straight: "Zhao Yang thanked the adult, and it is the duty of the villain to die for the adult." ”

Lin Bei smiled: "Zhao Yang, right? I remembered. He turned his head and asked Zhang Cheng: "How are the people moving now?" ”

"My lord, we have all arrived at the mine. It's safe, and I'm the only one left waiting here for my lordship. ”

"Then let's go, join them."

Lin Bei and Zhang Cheng walked in front, and Lin Bei asked as he walked, "Can you send a sergeant to count the number of people?" ”

"The sergeant has already counted the number of people, and I think the adults will know as soon as they arrive at the mine."

"When you get to the mine, quickly give an order, let everyone boil the boiling water, wipe the lower body, so as not to be infected with the wind cold, in addition. Beware of the beasts rushing into the mines. By the way, everyone should be sheltering from the rain in the mine now, right? Seeing Zhang Cheng nodding, Lin Bei said again: "Send some sergeants to inspect the mine to see if there is any looseness." lest the mine collapse. Never mind. I'll do it, you just need to pacify the people. ”

"In this way, it will be annoying to the adults."

Lin Bei thought that sending a sergeant to patrol the mountain might be enough. If he was not mistaken, there should have been a lot of beasts gathered around the mine, at this critical moment of life and death, Lin Bei's breath is estimated to be unable to deter them, and the sergeant's patrol of the mountain is quite dangerous, or he just has to work hard himself.

The terrain of the mine is still relatively high, it is a continuous and wide mountain range, how long Lin Bei does not know, because he has never explored, he only came to the mine once, I remember that there are several mine entrances and exits, all of which are halfway up the mountainside, about two or three hundred meters away from the flat land of the forest, so Lin Bei immediately thought of this place when he moved.

Under Zhang Cheng's lead, Lin Bei quickly followed the large army, which did not all enter the mine, and was still slowly squeezing into the mine, Lin Bei asked Zhang Cheng to maintain order first, crossed the team, and went to the vicinity of the mine to take a look.

Although the level of science and technology in this era is not good, but thanks to Lin Bei's instructions, the craftsmen are still very careful when digging the cave, the rock layer above the mine is hundreds of meters thick, unless it is a natural disaster such as an earthquake, the probability of collapse is quite small.

The people of Linjiang City slowly entered the mine, and the sergeant guarded the entrance of the mine, picked up some wet leaves and wood, and began to make a fire to boil water, making a cloud of smoke, but now the rain has not drenched people, and a fire has been lit again, so compared to the pouring rain outside, the mine is okay.

Lin Bei's wound burst when dragging people, and was soaked in water, so he couldn't stop the bleeding, in terms of his huge body, although this blood is nothing, but it was shocking to watch, the military doctor came up to wrap Lin Bei with a cloth, and when he was bandaging, the sergeant came over to report the situation.

"My lord, five people are missing."

Lin Bei's heart was shocked: "Five people? Count the ten people who were killed by the bison herd? ”

"Those ten people have been removed, but there are still five people missing, as if they were not seen when they set off from Linjiang City."

"Didn't you see it when you set off from Linjiang City?" Lin Bei suddenly had a headache, it's been three or four hours, Linjiang City is next to the Mekong River, maybe it has become an ocean, "Then I'll go to Linjiang City to have a look, I hope to see these five people." ”

Although Lin Bei was a little tired, he had to cheer up at the moment, because for him, it was a matter of coming and going, but for those five people, it was a life-threatening matter, and Lin Bei naturally couldn't ignore it.

At that moment, Lin Bei found Zhang Cheng and said that he wanted to go back to Linyi Jiangcheng again to find the missing five people, Zhang Cheng persuaded: "My lord, now the water outside is extremely high, since the five people have disappeared in Linjiang City, I am afraid that they have been more than lucky, the adults have been injured so much, the villain is really a little worried, why don't you rest for one night tonight and go again tomorrow?" ”

Lin Bei smiled: "I know that you are worried about me, but this is a small injury, it is not a big problem, you and others are the people of this adult, you can't favor one over the other, abandon it, don't worry, Zhang Cheng, I am very fast, and I will return in an instant." ”

"In this way, it is inconvenient for the villain to stop the adult, but I still hope that the adult will be careful in everything, and the more than 50,000 people in the two cities of Wanghai and Linjiang can not leave the adult."

"Well, I know, you're going to have to work a little harder here when I go."

"It's the villain's duty."

Lin Bei crawled out of the mine and watched Lin Bei's figure disappear, Zhang Cheng sighed: "My lord's kindness is really my luck." Then he said to the sergeants around him, "You must also keep it in mind." ”

All the sergeants nodded yes, looking at Lin Bei's direction, these sergeants all had fanatical worship on their faces, because Lin Bei's actions won the hearts of these sergeants.

Lin Bei is now the leader of these people, and in this era, it is the lord. These sergeants are all Lin Bei's domestic servants, who doesn't want their lord to have a generous personality? Lin Bei can save those five civilians today regardless of his own injuries, and he will also save them tomorrow.

In these years, benevolence is quite marketable, Liu Bei finally achieved a great cause because of the name of benevolence, if Liu Bei is cruel and unkind, how can his soldiers die?

Lin Bei didn't know that because of this incident, the loyalty of the sergeants had been raised to a higher level, he was just doing what he should do, as he said, they were all his own people, of course they were saved. And the barbarians or the natives. Lin Bei did not see these people as people.

Lin Bei's speed was very fast, Linjiang City was only more than 20 miles away from the mine, and it didn't take a quarter of an hour for Lin Bei to rush to Linjiang City. See Linjiang City at this moment. Lin Bei could only smile bitterly and was speechless. Because at this moment, there are many buildings in Linjiang City.

The water in the city is now almost two meters deep, and the water here is much more turbulent than the water in the forest. The turbid river surged down, sweeping away all the original buildings in Linjiang City, and some large trees and some animal carcasses also drifted in the river.

"People must be choking enough." Lin Bei sighed, even he felt a little difficult to walk here, this place is not like the sea, even if there is a typhoon, the bottom of the sea is calm, the impact of the water on the surface of the river and the bottom of the river is about the same, Lin Bei has to go against the current if he wants to stabilize his body.

The Mekong River, which was originally only a hundred zhang wide, is now wide and I don't know how wide, anyway, it looks like it is full of water, Lin Bei is looking for traces of human beings, people don't see it, but they see a big boat tied to a big tree, the hull has fallen apart, only a few pieces of wood are tied to where they are, and other hulls can't be seen, they are all washed away by the river.

"Those natives are all funny." Lin Bei scolded in his heart, it is precisely because of these natives that Lin Bei's judgment was wrong, unless the original indigenous people of the Wabo tribe have not suffered floods, but Lin Bei feels that it is impossible, so Lin Bei can only think that these natives are teasing, and they have all suffered from floods and built the tribal camp here.

In fact, Lin Bei really didn't wronged these natives, but these natives actually can't be teased, their planting level is not high, and almost no grain can be planted, the rice fields that Lin Bei saw were still planted because of trade with the Han people, but the Han merchants in this era were actually very cunning, and they didn't blink at the pit, and the food could be exchanged, but the grain seeds were almost not given to the natives, anyway, the natives couldn't tell the difference, and the natives admired the culture of the Han Dynasty. Rice and wheat crops were identified in Yixin, and as a result, grain production has been scarce.

But the aborigines also have to eat and drink, after all, hunting is dangerous, and hunting is not safe, compared to hunting, fishing is a less dangerous, more harvest work, so the tribal camp is built by the river is also a matter of course, although they don't know the word flood season, but as long as the Mekong River rises, the aborigines can know in advance and then transfer, Lin Bei because he is not clear about the way of life of the aborigines, so he suffered a little loss, but this loss is worth it, and then encounter the flood season in the future, Lin Bei will definitely learn to be smart, which is also the so-called eating a trench and growing wise.

The river was surging, Lin Bei swam down along the bank of the Mekong River, while swimming and observing the surroundings to see if he could find anything, so, after swimming hundreds of miles, Lin Bei felt that even if he swam again, he was just doing useless work, so he was ready to return.

Just as I was about to return, there were suddenly many huge waves in the Mekong River, and the fish jumped up from the river, and they went upstream, and these fish were all big fish.

"Is this the Mekong catfish? Wow, that's huge. ”

The Mekong giant catfish belongs to the giant catfish family, is a kind of catfish, but the size is huge, during this time Lin Bei has seen the manta fish and Siamese giant carp in the Mekong River, but the Mekong giant catfish has not been seen, I didn't think that at this time, I can see so many giant catfish.

These giant catfish swim upstream, leap out of the water from time to time, the size of each head is five or six meters up, Lin Bei can even see more than seven or eight meters long giant catfish, the giant catfish are all over the river, you can't see the head at a glance, it is estimated that there are tens of thousands of heads, which is extremely spectacular.

"What are these giant catfish going to do? Is it the spawning period? So you have to go upstream to spawn? (To be continued......)
