Chapter 4 Leaving × Confused Memories × First Night in the Snow Forest
When he set off in the morning, Qi Yu stood at the hatch and asked the little guy to repeat what he had told him yesterday before he was relieved.
The little one turned his head and ignored him. Qi Yu twisted the hatch and pushed the snow away before he could get out. After coming out, Qi Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly when he saw the blood mark on the hatch, the plan didn't change quickly. Listening to the little guy latch the door and slowly walk away, Qi Yu pulled the snow back to the original place, the snow was small but it never stopped, and in the morning, there was no door here.
After getting these done, Qi Yu set off to go down the cliff, and after a shallow foot in the snow, his shoes became wet and cold, which made him regret that he didn't peel the deerskin back. It's better to wrap your legs and feet without tanning than now, and maybe you have a deerskin scarf and a hat.
Qi Yu rearranged the strip of cloth around his neck, wrapped his head, ears, mouth and nose, and walked much better. It didn't take long for Qi Yu to arrive at the edge of the rock wall. When he went down, Qi Yu still didn't regret it, for the sake of the little guy, he also had to go this way. There is no shortage of food and clothing in the bunker, and the two are like frogs in warm water, facing an unknown future, which is actually very dangerous. It was right to come out, but he, the father, had to break in first.
Without thinking about it anymore, Qi Yu turned around and began to climb down from the edge of the cliff, but the moment he went down, a palpitation suddenly flashed in Qi Yu's heart, and he always felt that something extremely important had been left out by himself.
After descending the cliff, Qi Yu packed up his things and walked to the only open observation window. It was so close that Qi Yu couldn't see the situation inside, so he just smiled and waved his hand to the observation window, turned around and walked into the forest. What Qi Yu didn't see was that in the window behind him, the little guy also waved his hand and burst into tears.
Before leaving the valley, Qi Yu first came to the prey of the first day to take the deer skin, and the deer's eyes were already covered with a layer of gray and white, and they were no longer smart. After leaving yesterday, this thing didn't seem to have been moved, and there were no signs of other animals nearby. The neighborhood is safe for the time being. It's just that the deer's body is already frozen, it's icy and hard, and the weather is not good, if you don't hurry up, Qi Yu won't even be able to go out of the forest today.
Qi Yu made an I-shaped incision from the abdomen to the neck, and peeled off the rest of the deer body from the skin and the cortical fat fascia. It's best to peel the deer when it's just dead, and now it's frozen hard. However, the deerskin of the following journey is very important to Qi Yu, so he can only peel it off slowly.
The skin that was peeled off in the end was not big, Qi Yu scraped off the residual flesh and fat with ice particles with a knife, cleaned it up indiscriminately in the snow on the ground, and wrapped it on his head and feet, which was immediately much warmer. Looking at the sky, Qi Yu knocked down a few more antlers. The antlers are very hard, and when sharpened, they are easy to make into a pair of long and short spears, and the extra weapons are paid, which gives Qi Yu a little more security. In the end, Qi Yu took another rib for dinner and set off again.
Before leaving, Qi Yu looked at the rock wall from a distance, passed through the trees and branches, found the small window at a glance, and turned to leave. With the deerskin, the trip was much easier, but it was almost dark, and Qi Yu hadn't found a way out of this woodland yet.
Qi Yu finally understood what the vague sense of crisis was after he went out. He couldn't remember the way he had been, and even the memory of how he had come here before was vague!
The only thing that impressed me was that after the day's white light, Mark muttered a lot of things to himself that people couldn't understand, and hurried their father and son along the road to the north. Then came the chaotic images in his brain, and now Qi Yu's ears still rang with Mark's roar: "To the north - maple valley - bunker".
Then there are fragmented fragments: endless long nights, fathers and sons running wildly, snowy forests, valleys, rock walls.
At the end of the clip, he wakes up in the bunker and his son who is sleeping next to him.
Qi Yu didn't have a complete memory, and he didn't want to think about it now. When night falls, if you don't act, you may freeze to death here.
In the memory fragment, the rock wall appeared on the front, and the simple inference was to go out in the direction facing the rock wall. It's just that the direction is right, and the weight on the body has to be reduced to go fast. It was dark for a while, and Qi Yu no longer hesitated. The climbing rope was dropped first, then the short antler spear, and finally the meat steak that had been cut not long ago, and the temptation of the deer chop was unfortunately too heavy. It's about surviving in the wilderness, not where Dad is going.
Traveling lightly again, Qi Yu strode forward, and after walking for a while, the sky no longer allowed Qi Yu to go further.
Qi Yu felt that he was going to stay in the snow forest at night, so he stopped and found a place to get up and down. He got the place where he spent the night in a moment. Fortunately, there are a lot of dead trees and branches in the woods, and the raw materials are sufficient.
After a while, Qi Yu picked a bowl-thick fir tree in the nearby forest. Many of the branches in the lower half of the fir have dried up and died, and only the bare branches on the main trunk remain. The upper part of the cedar is still alive and snowy. Qi Yu is very satisfied with this cedar, and it can be directly made into a simple tree shed.
Qi Yu selected a convex branch as the fulcrum of the tent, and found two dead branches of about the same length nearby, broke off the thin branches on them one by one, and used them as the main beam of the tent. The two dead branches were cleaned up and erected on both sides of the selected fulcrum, and the main beam of the tent in the shape of "one" was erected.
Qi Yu ran to the neighborhood to pick up a lot of materials, put them on both sides of the main beam, and finally built a crooked tree shed before dark. Fortunately, the fir canopy is large enough to directly block the roof of the tree, which is much more reliable and practical. It was only when the fire was lit that Qi Yu found that the tent opening was facing the direction where the wind was coming from in the valley. If the fire is lit and the wind blows the fire, Qi Yu will turn into bacon overnight, which makes Qi Yu a little worried.
Making a fire is a big deal. Qi Yu made a lot of bow and arrow binders, and he mixed some fat made from the fat on the deer leg in it, which became a good accelerant. This time, Qi Yu brought some with him, which was just right to use. Tinder is simpler because there are lighters. It was Mark's gift to the little one to become a Scout, a Zhibao lighter, which was also customized with the blessing text and logo of the Eagle Scout, which was always filled with oil and kept in the bag. I usually put it in my bag, and now I estimate that I still have most of the oil.
Qi Yu swept away a large area of snow in front of the tree shed, dragged some dead branches and dry leaves in the tent, dipped them in his own secret accelerant, and quickly raised a fire against the smoke and fire. Following the firelight, Qi Yu picked up a little left and right nearby, barely getting the night's habitat right. The ground was too wet, so Qi Yu could only straddle the dead branch at the bottom of the main trunk in the tree shed, and rest against the trunk.
Opening a bucket of dry food, Qi Yu poured out all the dry food inside, filled a bucket of snow and boiled water, and at this time he couldn't care about the strange smell of burning. The deerskin, shoes, and socks wrapped around his feet were all taken off by Qi Yu and roasted on them, and the fishy smell of raw deer skin, the smell of shoes and socks, the smell of pine smoke, etc., smoked Qi Yu with all the flavors along the breeze.
The water in the bucket of dry food boiled in a moment, gurgling and splashing. Qi Yu threw a piece of dry food into it, and watched the brown dry food pieces tumble inside and spread out into porridge, Qi Yu kept swallowing his saliva. Finally, when the porridge was colder, Qi Yu couldn't care about burning his mouth, so he took a sip, it was so fragrant!.
Qi Yu, who was smoky in the fire, kept crying, and Qi Yu looked in the direction of the fortress vaguely. I don't know how the little guy is now, he should have finished eating and sleeping at this time.
Thinking of the little guy, Qi Yu leaned on the trunk of the tree and fell into a deep sleep.
