Lost in Southern Sichuan Chapter 33 The Firewood That Saves Lives
I said, "If we fight the wild boar head-on, although we still have a good chance of winning, there is still danger in the end." Who among you knows best where the tiger was caught in the trap? ”
"Me."
Dahu took a step forward, and there seemed to be a trace of remorse and sadness in his demeanor.
I patted him on the shoulder as a sign of comfort, and then said, "Our general direction will not change for a while, I need your help us to find those four traps, if we can successfully lead those beasts into the trap, we will save a lot of effort." ”
Lao Ma patted me on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Hahaha, I said Zhang Gensheng, you kid can really break the water, you can think of it." ”
I glanced at him and said, "Do you know what is the essential difference between humans and animals?" ”
The old horse blinked and replied, "Isn't it true that you can't speak human words?" ”
"Will you use tools, idiot......"
The old horse kicked me in the back, and if I had beaten him, I would have pushed him to the ground and rubbed him.
Xiaohu puffed up his chest and said: "I don't have any other abilities, but I am very good at recognizing the way, the shopkeeper, you can leave it to me." ”
I nodded in satisfaction, as long as we find the four traps first, this battle will be twice as successful with half the effort.
Anyway, we followed the direction of the old horse and approached the next star, along the way the big tiger was carefully observing the terrain, trying to discern the direction, looking at his serious appearance, I couldn't help but feel a little sad, a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, his heart is probably full of hatred and remorse now.
But until we found the next bronze figure, he didn't say a word.
I could see that he was a little anxious, his brow furrowed all the time, and I thought, maybe I shouldn't have put so much pressure on him.
So he walked over and comforted: "It's okay, you just have to look for it, it's okay if you can't find it, it's not that we can't do it without those four beast clips." ”
The big tiger nodded truthfully, and we continued walking.
Finally, after walking a distance of about a few hundred meters, the big tiger suddenly shouted excitedly: "It's over there, it's over there!" ”
I looked in the direction of his finger and carefully discerned it, it seemed to be a little familiar, but it was a little far away, and I was not particularly sure.
I gave a thumbs up and said, "Well done." ”
Then he said to everyone: "Break some branches, explore the way forward, don't be caught by the beast." ”
I broke a branch and walked in front, moving slowly like a sapper clearing mines, carefully maneuvering with the weeds in front of me.
After walking more than 200 meters in this direction, we finally found the location of the four traps.
The four big iron guys were still lying there quietly, fangs and claws, like human-loving monsters.
Just half a day ago, these ferocious things broke the leg of a young man in the flower season.
Tony crouched down, carefully fiddled with the four traps with a branch, nodded and said, "It's a little rusty, but we're sure that all four can be used normally." ”
"Okay, let's start killing the pigs. Then everyone shouted at me, as loud as they could, and lured that brute over! ”
We tried our best to use our voices to create some attraction, and for a time it was a scene of demons roaring, and the wild boars did not attract them, but scared away many mountain birds.
Lao Ma sighed and said, "Gensheng, it seems that your method is not very good, and the second senior brother is not fooled." ”
I said confidently: "Don't say it too early, the second senior brother is the second senior brother after all, you see ......"
Sure enough, in front of us, a violent sound was approaching us, and the nearby trees and flowers were all staggered.
"Shout on! Provoke it! ”
It's kind of funny to think about it, our group of people are actually provoking a wild boar...... It's really insulting......
But the beast had been fooled, and our hasty intrusion into its territory had made it very angry, and the fact that we had so rudely yelled at it had already made it furious.
Strange, why can I feel the anger of a pig...... It's disgusting.
The brute, with red eyes, rushed at us without hesitation.
"Hurry back and retreat, lest you be affected."
Under my whispered persuasion, everyone stepped back.
At that moment, the beast finally plunged headlong into the trap.
"Smack! Syllable! Syllable! Syllable! ”
The four beast traps were triggered at the same time, and they happened to be clamped on its four legs.
I have to admire the hunter who placed the beast trap, this distance is just right, it seems that this person is very skilled in business, but it is a pity that such a talent should also fall in this vast jungle.
Look at the boar, which was rolling on the ground in agony by this time, and its limbs were so badly injured that it could no longer stand.
Such wild boars can be said to be no threat to us at all.
I looked at the big tiger and said, "If you want to kill it, you can go, we are waiting for you here, if you don't want to kill it so much, I think it's important for us to hurry." ”
Time is the most important thing, and we have to speed up the process so that it doesn't change later.
The big tiger shook his head and said, "It will die here sooner or later, we don't need to do it, shopkeeper, let's go." ”
I was glad that this child was sensible, so I said, "Old horse, look at the direction, let's keep walking!" ”
We followed the markers that the old horse had just left back on the right route and continued onwards.
After that, although we walked a little frightened, we never encountered any other obstacles, even if we encountered the river that cost Wang Cheng's life, we all passed it safely.
Finally, we came to the last and most important pass, the General's Mausoleum.
In fact, I have never understood why such a transparent cave should be called such an eerie name as "General's Mausoleum", which actually has nothing to do with any mausoleum.
Before entering the cave, I said to Tony, "Brother To, it's not that I don't believe you, it's just that there are some things that I was embarrassed to say before, and if I don't say them now, I'm afraid something will go wrong." I still want to ask, by now, how sure are you. ”
Without thinking, Tony said, "Fifty percent." ”
I took a deep breath and said, "Then we'll have to keep some hands on it." ”
Tony nodded indifferently, and I said, "Let's go find some dry branches and bring them with you, the more the better." ”
After about ten minutes, we gathered at the entrance of the cave again, and everyone except Tony had a large bundle of firewood on their backs, and I estimated it, nodded in satisfaction, and said, "Go into the cave, and the rest will be left to fate......
We didn't bother the bats, but walked quietly to the last bronze figure.
We were silent for a moment at the bronze figure, and I said, "This is the last one, let's work, and the bat will wake up in a moment." ”
When we finally got the bronze figures in place, the army of bats arrived as scheduled, and we fled again, rushing to the opposite light.
With the hardships of the last time, who would dare to stay longer, this group of people rushed out of the hole one by one faster than the other.
But the moment I rushed out of the hole, my heart was a little cold.
Daytime, or early in the morning......
I hurriedly shouted, "Old horse! Fucking watch the time! ”
The old horse took out his watch in a panic, looked at it, and then said weakly: "Damn, I crossed the ...... again"
There was a sound in my head, in this hot summer day, I was like falling into an ice cave, and my whole body was cold.
Could it be that there is something wrong with Tony's speculation? Could it be ...... We're stuck here?
I could see that Tony's face was visibly downcast, and his brow was furrowed, as if he was remorseful.
The prickly head sat down on the ground and muttered, "After a long time, my strength is almost exhausted, I am thirsty and hungry, and I still can't get out in the end?" ”
Zhang Genhuo kept looking at him unpleasantly, and shouted at this time: "Alas! Don't put that, you have the ability to do it! ”
Captain Yu glared at the stinging head and said, "Don't be rude!" ”
I walked up to Tony and said, "Brother Tony, it's not your fault, try other ideas, and we'll start over." ”
Tony shook his head and said, "I can't think of anything else right now. ”
The atmosphere was suddenly a little depressing, and everyone seemed to have lost confidence at this moment, either in a daze or bowing their heads, and the scene was lifeless.
Looking at the disheartened people, I thought for a while, clapped my hands and said: "Come on, come on, everyone cheer up, although this time it didn't work, but I believe that there must be some details that we haven't found, let's just start again." Besides, even if we can't get out for a while, the materials here can still support us to live for a while, there are all kinds of wild vegetables, and ...... There is also pork to eat, hahaha, what are you afraid of, can a living person still suffocate urine? If it doesn't work once, let's try it a second time, and if it doesn't work the second time, it's the third time, and it's a waste here to die, so it's better to fight the fuck! ”
The old horse spat and scolded: "Yes! Fight the fuck! ”
"Grass Grass**"
"Lao Tzu must give his mother to go out!"
……
Desperate swear words can sometimes be very morale-boosting, and suddenly an air of death and fearlessness flows through us, and I know that my words have worked.
I raised my arms and shouted, "Let's go!" ”
Everyone echoed in unison, and our team was instantly filled with energy bodies similar to revenge.
We didn't go far before we came to the place where we had met the black fog, and I motioned for everyone to put down the firewood on their bodies, pile half of it together, and hold the lighter in their hands.
Then my eyes were fixed on the place where the first two black fogs had appeared.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for a cloud of billowing black gas to float rapidly from afar.
"Ignite, ignite!"
The crowd set fire to the branches in front of them in an orderly manner, and then threw them into the pyre, and in a short time, a warm bonfire was lit.
We sat around the fire, and the black mist happened to arrive and engulfed us in an instant.
The familiar and disgusting cold surrounded me again, but fortunately this time there was a fire in front of me, but I felt a little cold in my back, but I could still stand it, compared to the previous two times, it was really a world of difference.
We threw the remaining half of the firewood into the fire one by one to keep it hot.
I looked at the fire in front of me and was stunned, feeling the collision of warmth and coldness in my body, which was a little subtle.
In this way, time was no longer so difficult, and more than ten minutes passed quickly, and the tail of the black mist swept over our bodies and drifted away into the distance.
