Chapter 352: Into the Mountain
Out of the New Year, the snow is getting heavier and heavier.
I don't see the spring light, but it gets colder and colder.
For Shen Qiutan, there are still three days to sit for two months, and she fantasizes about the feeling of taking a hot bath, and now she can only wipe it with a hot towel every day, which is really uncomfortable. Thanks to the fact that it was winter, she would have blown up if it had been summer.
The well-fed chubby and strong are very well-behaved.
Shen Qiutan kissed the chubby little meat hand, and kissed the strong little feet, and the chubby laughed, but the strong but calm was very calm.
The bad-eyed Shen Qiutan took the red pompom, I heard that the child who is almost two months old has limited vision, but he is very sensitive to red, Zhuang Zhuang did catch the red ball, but after looking at it, he calmly ate his little hand.
On the contrary, Chubby stretched out his little hand, as if he was catching a ball.
When Li Qi came in, Shen Qiutan was teasing the two children with a rattle, the children were not amused, she didn't know why she was laughing.
Seeing that the prince came back, Mama Xu led the girls to retreat together.
Every night at this time, Li Qian would join in the activities of playing with children, but today he was a little silent.
Shen Qiutan laughed enough, and realized that it was not written correctly, so he couldn't help asking, "What's wrong, but what happened?" ”
"Well, one of the three teams that went to explore came back, and there was a harvest, I want to follow and have a look."
The rattle in Shen Qiutan's hand was snatched away by Chubby, and she said slowly as if she didn't notice it: "Now that the winter is very cold, it's not a joke to get lost in the snow, do you really want to go in person?" Also, in case of a heavy snowstorm......"
Li Qian understands the reason, the three teams sent out a few years ago are all positions that he deduced based on his mother's words, so no one knows the position he is looking for better than him.
"Don't worry, Xiaohong will lead the way."
"Little Red?" Big squirrel little red? I heard that Xiaohong was sent back to Beichuan, but she really didn't see her after she came, so she went out to run a mission.
"Well, this time the surviving team was able to come back because Xiaohong went with him, and it never got lost." Li Qian explained.
His tone was calm, but Shen Qiutan heard the insistence in it, when a man really wanted to do something, it was actually difficult to stop it.
Li Qian kissed her daughter's little feet: "I'll go and come back quickly." ”
…………
After Li Qi left, there was one less protective barrier in front of Shen Qiutan and the child.
Shen Qiutan, who has gone through hardships, is really scared, and he is always very nervous when he encounters things involving children.
Li Qi entered the mountain to hide from everyone, in order to hide people's eyes, Lu Dou and Qin Lang would go to the study twice a day, just like Li Qi was still there, Xu is Li Chen's killing was effective in the years, and he had been as calm as water in the past month.
The children grow up fast, the daughter is chubby and a laughing child, Shen Qiutan teases, she is often very face-saving and laughs, the laughter is crisp, it can really make the old mother's sorrow pause, and the son is still cool, or lazy, rarely laughs, and does not like to cry, it is uncomfortable to pee, at most wrinkles the plain little brows, hummed twice, and the nurse knew that he was urinating.
However, a month of dullness also means that Li Qian has been away for a month.
I don't know how they're doing now?
…………
After a day's trek in the snow, the team found a sheltered col, Qin Feng skillfully lit the fire, and another personal soldier cooperated tacitly to set up an iron pot on the fire, and pulled the snow around him, and chose the cleanest layer in the middle and put it into the pot.
The snow water melted into water and was boiled, Qin Feng threw the frozen dumplings into the boiling water, and after a while, everyone ate hot soup and hot rice.
"Ha, this time it's stuffed with weed." Qin Feng also filled himself a bowl, and seeing Li Qi drinking the soup slowly, he walked over and said, "Your Highness, there is only half of the dumplings that Niangniang asked someone to prepare, shall we continue to go deeper?" ”
If the food supply is insufficient, the risk factor will be doubled if you go further in.
Li Qi took out two dumplings from the bowl and gave them to the red squirrel, and Xiaohong squeaked twice and ate happily.
"Let's go one more day, and if we haven't arrived, we'll turn back."
"Yes."
They climbed over one mountain after another, and under their feet were large expanses of snow, which were densely wooded in some places and looser in others.
This large area is a no-man's land, and it is rumored that there are wild people haunting it. But whether there is one or not, no one knows for sure.
The team walked for another half a day, and arrived at a dense forest, the snow under the dense forest was knee-high, Qin Feng moved forward with some hesitation, but Xiaohong suddenly squeaked, obviously very excited.
"Xu is just ahead."
"Hmm."
They stepped deeper and deeper into the snow at a shallow pace, faster and faster, and at that moment, there was a sound not far away, like the creaking of snow being stepped on.
Everyone moved, but after waiting for a long time, no movement came, and the soldiers who went to the direction of the sound to investigate came back: "I didn't find anything abnormal, maybe it was the sound of snow falling from the pine branches." ”
The crowd breathed a sigh of relief.
So, the team moved on.
Walking through a dense forest, Little Red stopped in front of a low hill.
"Brothers, dig it!" Qin Feng greeted, everyone took out their tools and dug down into the snow, and after a while, someone was surprised: "It's the signal left by the brother in front!" ”
Between the snow and the soil lies a frozen potato.
Further down, it should be all iron ore.
Li Qian nodded, and finally his hard work paid off.
There was a creaking sound all around, accompanied by unintelligible language:
"Ahh
"Ahh
Li Qian was still holding an iced potato in his hand, and as soon as he looked up, he was surrounded.
There were about a dozen people on the other side, wearing animal fur and sharpened stones as weapons in their hands, looking at Li Qian and his party vigilantly.
They talked a lot, Li Qi frowned, he didn't understand.
The other party also seemed to find out and made a move to drive away.
Li Qian took a few steps back with the people and left the marked position.
The other party put away the "weapon" and waved at Li Qian again, as if to drive him away.
Li Qian stopped, this is his destination, of course he won't go, he took two steps forward, and wanted to communicate with a middle-aged man on the other side, he had already seen it very clearly just now, other savages always have to look at this man when they do things, he should be a leader.
Li Xuan stroked the pen, but he didn't know if the stroke was right, and the middle-aged man spoke: "You go, we won't hurt you, and you can't come to our territory." ”
He can speak official language, and what he says is not bad?
Li Xuan was very surprised: "This brother, can you take a step to speak?" Seeing is believing now, there are indeed "wild men" here, but this man is not.
