002 Journey
On the 302nd day of coming to this world, Zhang Xiangyang and Steelmane continued to walk on the mountain road full of weeds and stones. Baidu search, more good free reading.
There are no roads here, and countless dangers lurk in the messy grass.
The presence of steel bristles solves most of the problems.
Bugs and snakes and rats in front of the steel mane are side dishes.
Zhang Xiangyang calculates the time and records the terrain.
Because it is impossible to establish a timetable based on the climate, most of the wisdom summaries of the ancients in the past have begun to fail, and now Zhang Xiangyang and others are taking on the role of this ancient.
Whether it is knowledge or experience, they are trying to summarize as much as possible.
It's not just about living for the sake of living, Zhang Xiangyang doesn't know much, but he still hopes to contribute to the reconstruction of mankind.
The steel mane carried a weight of two or three hundred catties and walked forward, and there was no road here.
The steel mane didn't know where to go, anyway, as long as it kept moving forward, Zhang Xiangyang wouldn't pinch its ears.
There are many places under his feet that are not easy to walk, and Steelmane still wants to walk a little better.
Zhang Xiangyang chose to set off only after the winter snow melted, and at this time the flood period had already passed, and most of the stagnant water had already been deposited.
The weeds in the neighborhood were all the same lush young grasses, and the steelmane was just a taste, preferring meat and fruit to grass.
If you just eat grass, you can't meet your body's energy needs.
When the steel mane is growing its body, and it also exercises a lot every day, it will work very hard to find food every time it eats.
Even, it can be said to be greedy.
"Let's rest ahead." Zhang Xiangyang jumped down from the steel mane, pulled the reins and led the steel mane towards the river.
After Steelmane saw Zhang Xiangyang coming down, he followed honestly.
From the grass to the barren river beach ahead, it was full of stones and dry silt.
Zhang Xiangyang walked to the riverbed with clear water with a steel mane, there was no silt here, and the place under his feet was very close to the current, so he didn't have to worry about sinking.
Moving down the things on the steel mane, the things of more than two hundred catties are Zhang Xiangyang's current belongings, in addition to food and weapons, there is also a large iron pot of fifty centimeters.
This iron pot was made before leaving, and there is an iron bucket for boiling soup.
Zhang Xiangyang took the iron pot out of his luggage and put it on the ground, put the luggage aside, and then untied the reins and saddle on the steel mane.
"Okay, let's go out and play, remember to come back when you eat, I'll help you brush your back at noon, and your body is dirty."
"Hmph"
Steelmane snorted, snorted as Zhang Xiangyang stroked its neck with his hand, and then rushed out to the side.
Zhang Xiangyang used an iron bucket to draw a basin of water, and then began to find some stones to fix the iron pot, poured river water into it and began to boil water.
"The water in the river here is fairly clean, and I don't know if there are big fish in the water."
Zhang Xiangyang put the dry branches and hay used for the fire back into the salute and began to look around for dry firewood.
That's why I chose to set off at this time, because if it had been earlier, I wouldn't have found a single dry log on the road.
Zhang Xiangyang is concentrating on cooking, there are some plants and fruits picked on the road in the pot, and his excellent resistance makes Zhang Xiangyang also play a recording role in many times, recording some of the plants and ingredients that have been explored. Baidu search, more good free reading.
Usually Steelmane likes to eat things, and there is generally no problem.
Steelmane also likes to eat poisonous snakes and poisonous insects
In order to let the steel mane grow healthily, Zhang Xiangyang will also regularly feed the steel mane some insecticide prepared safely, so that the steel mane can pull out the parasites in the body.
Just as Zhang Xiangyang was about to eat, a black shadow flashed over Zhang Xiangyang's head.
Zhang Xiangyang suddenly felt a tightness in his heart, quickly picked up the hammer axe next to him, and looked vigilantly in the direction where the shadow was going.
But soon, Zhang Xiangyang was stunned.
"White Snow"
Zhang Xiangyang looked at the big white bird flying in front of him in surprise, this big bird he was very familiar with, it was the night owl neighbor who lived next to the earthen house.
Bai Xue quickly grabbed a fat fish more than a meter long, and after circling back to the river, he pressed the fat fish that was struggling in his hand to the position next to the boiler.
Seeing this, Zhang Xiangyang walked over and squatted down, grabbed the big fish under Bai Xue's paws and threw it on the stone on the side.
The snow soon flapped its wings and flew again, and it did not like to stand on the ground.
There were no trees or other highlands nearby, and Bai Xue quickly stood on top of Zhang Xiangyang's luggage.
Zhang Xiangyang beat the fish to death with a stone, and when he saw Bai Xue wanting to turn over his luggage, he quickly walked over.
"Don't move, I'll give you some cured meat, can you help me carry a letter back?"
Zhang Xiangyang let Bai Xue fly out first, then took out the salted dried meat from his luggage, and then quickly took out a piece of paper and wrote a line with a quill.
The journey went smoothly, and I occasionally saw snow, and I could see if I believed it
The writing with a quill pen is very sloppy, and the paper made of bamboo is very difficult to use due to the current technology.
Zhang Xiangyang folded the paper and tied it to Bai Xue's leg with a hemp rope.
After eating a small piece of meat, Bai Xue flew out, not coming down to eat, but more like playing a game.
After Bai Xue flew out, Zhang Xiangyang sighed and began to deal with this big fat fish by the river.
"Bai Xue's range of movement is huge, but I'm too slow, and it took me two days to walk this way."
The distance between Zhang Xiangyang and Steelmane is really nothing to a huge bird of prey.
Because there was no seasoning, Zhang Xiangyang simply deplaned the fat fish with a duck's beak, then put some herbs and licorice in the belly of the fish, and then began to grill on the shelf.
The hot water in the iron pot has been boiled, but the fish is too big to fit in the stewpot.
Put the iron pot full of water aside to cool, and Zhang Xiangyang concentrated on grilling the fish.
After another ten minutes, there was a humming sound from the place behind him, and Zhang Xiangyang stood up and looked over there.
Steelmane took a lot of time this time, and his mouth was covered in mud and blood, but not Steelmane's blood.
It was a yellow-spotted creature that looked like a leopard, thin and slender, with fangs on its mouth, but it was dead.
Steelmane likes to eat next to Zhang Xiangyang, and if he finds something if he is not particularly hungry, he will return to Zhang Xiangyang to eat again.
After Zhang Xiangyang saw this animal with a very good skin, he walked over and pulled the corpse to the river, took out a knife from the luggage and began to dissect it.
Skinning, medicine mining, mining, logging, tailoring, smelting, blacksmithing, stone carving, alchemy, cooking.
Basically, Zhang Xiangyang slowly mastered and mastered the abilities he needed.
Alchemy is the refinement of chemical properties, such as soap, insecticides, cold medicines, and the knowledge of some basic medicines, Zhang Xiangyang has already memorized them.
Stone carving is a skill that Zhang Xiangyang has practiced out of boredom, which is equivalent to sculpture, and the marks left by Zhang Xiangyang along the way are used for this.
Peeling was already very skillful, and Zhang Xiangyang quickly used a knife to cut open the beast's abdomen and find the place between the skin and the fat.
The scene is not easy to see, and there is nothing to be proud of, just a necessary means of survival.
Pulling out the bloody pieces of meat and internal organs and setting them aside, Steelmane quickly gulped down.
Zhang Xiangyang peeled off the skin, he didn't have time to mix the skin, this animal skin could not be processed well in his hands, but this leather like a leopard skin was of good quality, and it could also be used as a mat when worn.
washed the skin with stream water, and when he almost felt that it was okay, Zhang Xiangyang took the skin and walked to the shore.
The grilled fish was already a little burnt, and the steel mane was full, and he was sleeping comfortably on his side.
Zhang Xiangyang walked over and took the grilled fish off the shelf.
Using a knife to remove the burnt pieces of meat on it, this fish is so big that Zhang Xiangyang can't eat it alone.
Zhang Xiangyang saw that the steel mane was sleeping, so he didn't bother, and after eating his grilled fish, he also cut some pieces of meat that the steel mane had not eaten, and took a piece of hind leg meat and roasted it as a reserve grain.
How many people are still in this world, Zhang Xiangyang is not sure.
The F39 team is still not there, and Zhang Xiangyang is not sure.
But after all, I have to confirm it, Zhang Xiangyang knows the danger of this matter, so now he is eating the flesh and blood of wild beasts in this quiet and dangerous wilderness.
It didn't take long for Steelmane to wake up, and when he woke up, he ate everything he hadn't eaten before.
Zhang Xiangyang took out the brush and began to wipe the steel mane, keeping a beautiful red flame that was soft and clean.
The journey continued quickly, and the road down the hill was not easy to follow.
Zhang Xiangyang did not ride on the back of the steel mane many times, but came down to help the steel mane step on things and climb the stones.
It's not all the ones you encounter that are easy to bully, and sometimes the steelmane will quickly run back after encountering a powerful predator, and then howl loudly.
At this time, Zhang Xiangyang will quickly pack up his things and leave here quickly.
The wisdom of human beings and the danger perception ability of wild beasts are the key to the smooth survival of Steel Mane and Zhang Xiangyang.
In 304 days, Zhang Xiangyang walked out of the area of the mountains.
After climbing a hillside, Zhang Xiangyang looked at the Great Wall-like road ahead with some surprise.
"The Great Wall is not right, the location is wrong"
Zhang Xiangyang didn't remember that there was a Great Wall in East China, and after careful observation, he suddenly realized what it was
I quickly crouched down to check the soil, and on this weedy road, there was thin soil, and some harder black clods.
"Highway"
Zhang Xiangyang took a deep breath, and looked at this grassy path full of weeds and no road in sight, there were no traces of human beings here.
"Since it's a highway, there should be some scattered crops nearby."
In order to deepen his affirmation, Zhang Xiangyang jumped to the side of the hillside, looking for the forest area accompanied by wild grass and a large number of trees.
Soon, Zhang Xiangyang found some plants that looked like wheat.
The wheat has been severely degraded and is gradually evolving in the direction of wild grasses, which are more like grass seeds grown for reproduction than wheat eaten by humans.
I don't know if I was lucky or unlucky, Zhang Xiangyang found a brown watermelon, each watermelon was only the size of a fist, Zhang Xiangyang picked a few and fed them to the steel mane.
The road ahead became a lot smoother, Zhang Xiangyang sat on the back of the steel mane, looking at the winding road in front of him, a little sad.
The traces of human beings are almost invisible, and the traces in front of him make Zhang Xiangyang a little suspicious of how long human beings have been asleep
The mountains and rivers are changing, and the vicissitudes of the sea are not only a thousand years
Without human maintenance, the traces of human beings are quickly washed away by nature.
Perhaps there were still a lot of vehicles parked on this road before, but under the invasion of nature, these traces will soon be smoothed out.
After a day's walk along the highway, Zhang Xiangyang came to the ruins of a broken wall that was severely sandy.
There is no human writing here, and there is no such thing as rust, only a few tall stone piers and pillars, and fallen stones, telling the story of this place's past.
Zhang Xiangyang rested here for the night, although he also wanted to find something, but because of the time that had passed, he found nothing but stones.
This was supposed to be a high-speed service area before, and Zhang Xiangyang tried hard to find evidence of which city it was, but he didn't do it until he left here the next day.
Burning his message with a chisel on the stone, Zhang Xiangyang then continued to move forward.
A lonely journey.
For 307 days, Zhang Xiangyang and Steel Mane encountered problems.
In front of the highway is a broken wall, and in front of it there is a long river more than 400 meters wide
Zhang Xiangyang looked nearby, and the river in front of him was horizontal, and he couldn't get around it either to the left or to the right.
The hardest thing is coming
Zhang Xiangyang looked at the big river, sighed, and thought about how to cross the river.
There are trees nearby, so you can make a wooden raft and go there, but it will waste a lot of time.
Zhang Xiangyang knew that it was impossible in three or two days, and looked at the surrounding terrain depressedly at this time.
"The river is much calmer, it's not too turbulent, but I don't know if there are monsters in it."
Zhang Xiangyang observed for half an hour, and then began to look for materials with the steel mane.
Not only his own past, but also the steel mane.
A wooden raft that can bear at least the weight of a steel bristle is not easy to make.
It is necessary to have a draft, that is, to press part of the hull into the water in order to provide sufficient buoyancy.
A simple thing like a wooden row can only let Zhang Xiangyang go by himself, and he can't bring a steel mane.
Zhang Xiangyang didn't have much time to delay, broke a small tree before the evening, then lit four bonfires, and began processing materials overnight.
For 309 days, the raft was launched into the water and was trampled by steel manes.
311 days, again failed.
312 days, failed
313 days, windy, cancel the plan.
In 314 days, Zhang Xiangyang and Steelmane crossed the river together.
