Chapter 151: Night
These people believed that Fan Jingjing was their young master's mother, and Mrs. Niu also told Fan Jingjing that they should do whatever she commanded.
Just having a meal is also good for them and can save some food.
"Let's get the camp up and go over right away, do you need us to help?"
They were a little embarrassed to see that Niu Yingxiu was also helping, how could they ask the host to help them get food.
"You men want to set up camps, and you have to be responsible for cleaning up the ground around here and cooking, so leave it to us, the two of us have nothing to do, not to mention that we are just barbecues, not serious cooking."
Fan Jingjing just doesn't know how to control the heat, although it is a little troublesome to deal with these foods, but the matter of peeling and removing hair, Liang Shu has already taken care of it, and it is not a big problem for Fan Jingjing of the next task force.
"It's a pity that this blood can only be wasted, and I didn't bring enough rice to soak it."
Fan Jingjing thought of rice blood, and her saliva flowed down.
The Niu family naturally only agreed to Fan Jingjing's invitation, not to mention that Liang Shu also counted their share when they were hunting, and all the people could just eat enough after eating, but it was very inconvenient to walk outside and go to the toilet, so most of the people just ate until they were not hungry, so they could have sufficient physical strength, but not so much that they needed to go to the pit from time to time.
In fact, in the wild, most people don't need to look for any thatched pits, find a hidden place, all the roadside is thatched pits, and you can also fertilize by the way.
However, the population density of Datang is extremely low, and there are not too many pedestrians passing by, and when the next person comes, the feces on the person in front of him have already been decomposed by various animals and insects in the wild.
In the wild, earthworms are not uncommon.
Fan Jingjing is good at barbecue. Fan Jingjing's so-called barbecue is to bury everything that needs to be heated into the ground, or bury it slightly, and then add a fire source on it, and use a slight temperature to cook things, so that general things will not burn, and the fragrance will be particularly high.
What's more, it's easier to find what you need to carry, you don't need wood, just some dry leaves, and grass.
In this way, with Fan Jingjing's means, even if there is no fire, it can still be lit with a match.
After everyone set up their tents and cleared all the dangerous items in the vicinity. The food was also prepared.
Fan Jingjing kindly boiled a pot of soup, this pot of soup is not to be drunk immediately, she cleaned some skeletons and put them in, looked at some wild vegetables, as well as salt and other seasonings, and let the accompanying people drink some hot soup when they were ready.
In the summer, it is hot during the day, but it is still cooler at night.
"It's so delicious, I didn't expect it to be so easy to cook in the soil. If you want to eat it, dig it out of the soil slowly. ”
"Then you have to keep it warm on it, it's not delicious when it's cold. And the fire must be extinguished. ”
Fan Jingjing responded that Niu Yingxiu ate with a bulging belly, and it is estimated that she may have to get up and go to the pit at night.
The little guy has no way to go up the pit in the wild by himself now, and he has to be accompanied by someone.
It's a pity that no other girl came out and let the man follow, Fan Jingjing felt a little weird. I had to go with it.
When Fan Jingjing wants to go to the toilet, it is also very troublesome.
Liang Shu and they often have to clean up a place and confirm that there are no dangerous animals before they are willing to let Fan Jingjing go to the toilet.
Fan Jingjing usually digs a pit. The toilet is followed by the toilet to bury the pit.
Fan Jingjing really feels that in this era, it is really inconvenient to go out. It's no wonder that travel isn't popular in this era.
No matter how beautiful the scenery is, it can't solve personal problems. It can be prohibitive.
There is still a big difference between a casual type of travel and an adventurous one.
It is more inconvenient for women to come out than men. Because men can pull anywhere, they are also relatively defensive against wild animals.
Most women are delicate and often in danger of their lives in the presence of wild animals.
Only one day after she came out, Fan Jingjing encountered a lot of problems beyond her imagination, and most of the preparations she made were used, but there were often more things than she imagined.
For example, the existence of wild animals, such as a big tiger will suddenly appear in front of her, it is more difficult to find water sources on the road than imagined, and not every place has water on the surface.
But with a lot of buckets of water on the road, it is very uneconomical, and it will also drag the speed of the horse.
The kettle they prepared for Liang Shu was not enough.
It can only allow everyone to save a little and drink a little more when it is time to boil water.
However, these problems are just small problems, and if there is a problem on the road, they will try to solve it, and try not to delay the trip.
The Niu family's team seems to be accustomed to traveling, and there are no rules for them to travel, so many on Fan Jingjing's side.
Fan Jingjing needs to boil water to drink, but they can get water if they find a water source at random, and they can drink it when they get water, and they don't understand what Fan Jingjing is doing, but they won't stop it.
Fan Jingjing really wanted to stop their behavior, but it was nosy to think that she herself was not the Niu family, and it was nosy to persuade them so loudly.
However, for Niu Yingxiu, she is more strict in management.
Mosquitoes and flies often gather at night. There are also some grasses in Datang that can repel mosquitoes. Even the black tree itself can make some disinfectants, as well as anti-mosquito agents.
It's just that Niu Yingxiu is relatively young and her skin is more delicate, so I'm afraid that some side effects will occur. Fan Jingjing still took a white cream from her Maserati that had a mosquito-repellent effect. wiped all the exposed places on Niu Yingxiu's body.
Fan Jingjing was going to the mountains at that time, and she knew that there were more mosquitoes in the mountains, so she didn't bring all kinds of anti-insect plasters.
"Sister, I won't be bitten at night, I'm so happy."
Fan Jingjing noticed that the number of civilizations in this era was very high, even if they lived in the Fan family manor or in urban areas, they could not avoid mosquito bites, and the number of mosquitoes and flies in this wild area could be said to be overwhelming.
It is no wonder that the plague can spread everywhere, fortunately mosquitoes and flies do not have the ability to move long distances, and if a plague occurs in one place, if no one takes them to another place, these mosquitoes and flies will not fly far away, even if the place where rats have lived all their lives is not far away.
Fan Jingjing also brought some mosquito repellent made of black tree leaves, and asked Liang Shu to spray some of them, although the effect was a little worse, but it could also make Liang Shu have fewer mosquitoes and flies around them.
Looking at the mosquitoes and flies flying in and out of the tent, Fan Jingjing knew what she had overlooked.
"It seems that mosquito nets must still be prepared, but at this time, there is no plastic to make mosquito nets, so you can only use some silk thread or twine."
Fan Jingjing found that her small book had a lot of records this time, and she didn't know when she would be able to digest her small book.
In addition to delaying the trip because of safety, Fan Jingjing really didn't dare to do other things halfway, although she felt that there were many things she could do for the people, but Fan Jingjing thought, if not on this road, the people in places farther away from the road should have a harder time, right?
Because in all dynasties, the people who were able to live close to important roads were not too hard, and they were all relatively good people.
People who are close to important transportation routes can get close to the flow of people and the flow of people is often the way money goes, even if they are just passing through, but if they slow down some items along the way that the other party can be interested in, they can earn more.
When it got dark, Fan Jingjing and Niu Yingxiu, who had no task on their bodies, fell asleep in the carriage, fortunately, the seats in the carriage were very large and could be used as mattresses, Niu Yingxiu was a small man, barely squeezed, and was able to sleep in the car, this carriage was used by Fan Jingjing as an RV.
And Liang Shu and the Niu family cooperated, and each sent one person to take turns to keep vigil.
Even if they stay in a restaurant inn in the past few days, they will send people to keep vigil, because it is not necessarily safe to live in the crowd, not to mention that many times the inns and restaurants they stay in are in the wilderness, and God knows what will happen at night.
Many criminals will start committing crimes at night, when others can't see them, so that during the day, the facts of their crimes will disappear, and in this day and age, there are no cameras, as long as no one sees them, or no one hears what they do, no one can know.
People in the field noticed that ordinary people could turn into bandits.
Let the whole village become a bandit village, it becomes too difficult for you to be alone when committing crimes, but when you live in the village, people still live according to certain rules, you won't rob me and I rob you, if the internal harmony is not enough, such a bandit village is easy to be exposed in the eyes of the yamen.
If such a village does not commit a big crime, no one will know about it, not to mention that when they rob some lone travelers, they can often make the other party completely unknown who robbed it.
If the resistance is too severe, they will attack and then kill and bury all of them.
Therefore, Liang Shu and their vigilance along the way did not relax, but the group of people from the Niu family was more relaxed, because people would pick people if they wanted to rob, and this group of people from the Niu family seemed to have something to do with the army, and they had a certain demeanor between the marches.
Liang Shu's previous job was to work in the fields, and he had a little earthy smell on his body, but after Liang Shu arrived at the Fan Family Manor, his work gradually changed from farming in the fields to a martial arts instructor, and his temperament was gradually changing, not to mention that when his martial arts became more and more sophisticated, he would gradually change his temperament, and his gestures were not the same as those of ordinary people.
Sleeping in the wild, it's not very good to sleep, although it's coated with mosquito repellent, but the carriage without mosquito nets still has mosquitoes from time to time, flies will fly in, buzzing all the time, but walking in the wild is very tiring, Fan Jingjing still has the noise of mosquitoes, and goes to sleep, even if it comes from modern chemical weapons, it can't ban these words, and occasionally help Fan Jingjing add a few bags, but it's Niu Yingxiu, a native of the Tang Dynasty, who looks much thicker when facing mosquitoes, even if the mosquitoes bite her limbs, and it does not necessarily cause redness and swelling.
Fan Jingjing is much more pitiful, there are many more mosquitoes in the wild than in the inn, and in her sleep, she scratches and scratches from time to time because she is too itchy.
Maybe she didn't sleep very well, and she heard the outside world.
The night in the wild is not quiet, all kinds of sounds will be strung in the forest, if it is an asphalt road in the future, the traverser is estimated not too much, but now the dirt road for some animals, there is no obstruction at all, during the day due to the human coming and going, they are noisy, maybe they will avoid, but there are few people walking on the road at night, there are many more animals coming and going on the road, after all, these roads are not covered by trees, and the animals that walk on this road often move quickly, In the animal world, the law of the jungle is the strongest, and danger can occur at any time, so they prefer places with shelter.
Most of the people who can make sounds are predators, and it is some predatory animals that make noises.
Night is actually a battlefield for animals. They had to survive the night by their skills.
These natural sounds, Fan Jingjing listened to them all night, and they are familiar, after all, she fell asleep listening to these sounds, but she felt that the current voice was not quite right, there was the shouting of people outside, and the beating of sticks, "bang bang bang" was terrifying, she listened carefully to the sound outside, and felt that there seemed to be a fight outside, although Fan Jingjing had a little self-defense ability, but after coming to Datang, she recognized the facts, her self-defense skills, only in a very casual moment, can block success, If she is in a state of fighting, others can knock her down in minutes.
She wanted to open her mouth to ask, but she was worried that Liang Shu was busy fighting, if she opened her mouth to ask and let them shine, it might cause Liang Shu to be accidentally injured and cause him to lose the fight.
The carriage was not fully enclosed, and there were windows from the beginning, because at the beginning, the carriage was not used as a wagon, but Fan Jingjing's car.
Of course, for the sake of privacy, Fan Jingjing also set up curtains above the windows, if the curtain is to be made simply, it is not simple, if it is the kind of high-end curtains in later generations, Fan Jingjing is not unaware of some principles, but she thinks that such things can be made when her own craftsmanship is mature, and these luxury goods will not be passed on at this time.
What's more, now even the people's daily necessities have not been able to be fully presented, and Fan Jingjing is also worried that if they are concentrated in Chang'an, the gap between the rich and the poor will become wider, and there are many things that dare not be taken out.
Now there is no light in the carriage, and if you secretly open the curtains, you should not be discovered.
