Chapter 26: The Willows and Flowers
"Well, I'm okay." Yao Changsheng realized what he had said, and he was very annoyed in his heart.
It's strange, they pushed me to do what I should, why did I refuse, it's really not like my own style of doing things in the past.
"Mother, go up, let's go quickly." Tao Qini said briskly, very satisfied with his answer, if she really wanted Tao Liuyi to push him, she wouldn't mind throwing him directly and leaving him to fend for himself.
Tao Qini looked down at her unconsciously trembling hands, numb arms, and felt that the black knife in her hand could not be held. Although the knife is sharp enough, it can't hold up the bushes!
Walking higher and taller in the bushes can drown people, and it also proves that they can't grow so tall without enough water!
Constantly bending over to mow the grass, normal people can't bear it, not to mention Tao Qini, who is hungry with her chest against her back.
Fortunately, the grass roots are sweet enough and have enough water, so I can replenish some physical strength.
Hold on a little longer, walk through the dry forest in front of her, victory is in sight, she already feels the water and the fish, this time it is no longer a cake to satisfy hunger, Wangmei quenches her thirst.
Tao Qini shook the knife in her hand and continued to walk in the front to open the way.
Cutting through the dead woods, tall rock walls blocked their way.
The rock wall towers into the sky, as if there is no end in sight, and people stand below, and a huge sense of oppression hits the face, and the steepness is almost ninety degrees.
Looking left and right, I can't see the edge, and it's unlikely that I want to get around it.
But it's not easy to turn over it, the breath in my heart is poured, exhaustion hits, and I don't have the strength anymore.
"This?" Yao Changsheng and the others were dumbfounded, there was no way out at all.
How do you feel right now? Obviously hoping is close at hand, but he forcibly cut it off, just like a joke made by God!
Yao Changsheng's face was flushed, sweat was dripping down his cheeks, he looked at the roadblock in front of him, and swallowed his saliva, "It's over now, it's slippery, there are no hands and feet, it's impossible to climb." ”
"I'm weak!" Tao Fifteen's face turned pale, and he sat directly on the ground, and his spirit was suddenly gone, "I can't be hit, and I can't walk anymore." ”
"What is this going to do?" Tao Liuyi sat on the ground on the wheelbarrow in embarrassment and wanted to cry without tears, his eyes were flustered and scurrying around, and finally fixed on Tao Qini's body, and his eyes moved with her.
"Tao Qini, shouldn't you talk about it, what are you going to do next......
Before Yao Changsheng finished speaking, he looked at the person in front of him, and took the treasure knife of the dead trees and bushes in front of the rock wall, and cut them down with a brush, revealing a glimmer of heaven that was only enough for one person to walk.
"Dad, is it my errand? How do I hear the sound of water? Tao Liuyi's eyes seemed to be wide open to the window, and he looked at them in disbelief and asked.
"It seems that there is still water vapor, and it is damp." Tao 15 sniffed and said.
"What are you still doing? Let's go. Shen jumped down from the wheelbarrow and said excitedly.
"What about this wheelbarrow?" Tao Fifteen looked at Tao Qini and them who were walking inside, and shouted loudly.
"Stay here! I won't lose it again. Tao Qini said very simply without looking back.
Tao fifteen got up directly from the ground, trotted into the sky, and the further he went, he heard the loud roar of the water.
The last few people simply ran inside, and suddenly opened up through the first line of sky, and they were greeted by all kinds of wildflowers, swaying in the wind.
The waterfall that is more than ten zhang high in the distance is flying down along the steep rock wall, and suddenly throws ten thousand pearls, splashes thousands of silver flowers, and sprays beads and snow.
The five of them walked up the river, and the cool water splashed on their bodies, as if it was drizzling, sweeping away the heat.
Such a large amount of humidity seems to explain why the natural phenomenon of mirage appears in this drought-stricken land.
Tao Qini and the others walked to the bottom of the waterfall, and at their feet was a pool of water ten feet wide, and from the edge of the pool were bare large and small pebbles, because of the drought, the area of this waterhole was reduced by half.
The clear waters of the pool lured them.
Immediately squatted down, held the water in both hands, and splashed the water on his face.
"Comfortable!" Yao Changsheng looked up to the sky and praised.
"Mother, I want to jump in." Tao Liuyi couldn't hold back anymore when he looked at the clear water.
"You all go down, Niel and I go outside and pack up our things, and when we're done, you'll call me." Seeing this, Shen Shi said simply.
Don't say they want to jump in, they want to.
"Then let's wash first, I'll keep watch for a while, and you and Nill will wash well." Tao Fifteen looked at the two of them and said with a smile.
"You wash well, and it will save our Nier from disgusting you with lice and fleas." Shen looked at his man and son and said.
"Then don't think we're taking a long time." Tao 15 looked at the two of them and said, "Actually, it's not in a hurry at this moment, there is water here, there are wild vegetables, how ...... we are here."
"Daddy, Daddy, there's a fish, a fish!" Tao Liuyi pulled his arm excitedly and said.
"Great, great, finally something to eat." Tao fifteen waded into the water excitedly.
"Daddy, Daddy, you scared the fish away." Tao Liuyi looked at the fish fleeing in all directions, and he was so anxious that he was about to cry.
"Fool, we're catching you if you run away!" Tao fifteen slapped him on the back of the head, "Look at your little breath, what are you crying about?" Funny, he said, "I still need to teach you how to catch fish!" ”
Children who grew up in the countryside, digging birds' eggs and going down to the river to fish, are all housekeeping skills.
"Hehe......" Tao Liuyi scratched his head straightforwardly and said, "I'm in a hurry, I've forgotten everything." As soon as he raised his eyes, he saw that Yao Changsheng had already jumped into the water, "Hey! Why did you go down, Auntie, they ......"
"It's long gone." Yao Changsheng swam into the distance, the water was warm from the scorching sun, and it was not cold at all.
Tao Fifteen, father and son, also hurriedly picked up the essence and rushed towards the water.
Swimming back and forth, lying calmly on the water, untied the hairband on his head, and spread his long black hair in the water, so that the pool water could wash his head well.
After feeling that his head was much lighter, he sat down on the edge of the pool and rubbed the dirt on his body with his hands.
The mud was a lot, gently rubbed it with his hands, and it fell down with a splash and a splash, but fortunately this pool of water was living water, and the dirty things were washed away along the water.
The three of them rubbed each other's backs again, Tao Fifteen and his son began to catch the fish in the pool, both of them were masters of catching fish, and after a while, more than twenty palm-sized small black fish were thrown onto the shore and jumped.
"Oops, I didn't get clean clothes." Yao Changsheng looked at the dirty clothes on the shore, but he didn't want to wear them on his body.
"I'll go get it, and I'll wash it when I come back!" Tao Liuyi said briskly, put on dirty clothes, and ran towards the sky.
Soon came over with two burdens, and Tao Liuyi, who was like a loach, jumped in and washed and put on clean clothes.
