"Uncle Xue, are you sure you let my brother and I fend for ourselves in this barren valley and wilderness?" Zhuge Xiaoqiang, who turned into a bitter gourd face, asked.

"How can you say it so seriously, I just went to see it, and the contents inside are enough for you to survive." Xue Bufan said.

"And where are we staying?"

"I remember there's a place called the Sleeping Moon Cave next to here, and you can go there and sleep in it at night." Ouyang Qianyu said with a smile.

Immediately, Xue Bufan handed over the travel bag containing some daily necessities to Bai Qi and said, "Here are some dry food and seasonings I prepared for you, as well as matches, so that you can survive here." ”

Bai Qi took the travel bag, opened it and looked at it, and found that there were only two small bags of compressed biscuits in the dry food, and said in surprise: "Uncle Xue, that's all?" ”

How can this survive?

Just two sachets of compressed biscuits means that after eating them for dinner tonight, you'll have to fend for yourself from tomorrow.

But...... Is it easy to find food in this kind of place?!

Don't have a meal at that time, it will be embarrassing.

"That's enough." Xue Bufan smiled meaningfully and said, "When you enter the Bagua Forest, you will know that I have given more than I have to give." ”

"......" Bai Qi nodded helplessly, he could only take one step at a time, and then act at the opportunity.

"Don't worry, I'll come to see you when I'm free, and I'll bring you something delicious by the way." Ouyang Qianyu said.

Zhuge Xiaoqiang's eyes lit up, this feeling is good!

"Alright, let's go." Xue Bufan said.

Li Lin looked at Bai Qi and Zhuge Xiaoqiang, the three of them never knew each other to share hardships together, and their feelings have been as close as brothers along the way, although they have been psychologically prepared to separate at this time, they still inevitably hurt and parted, and they didn't know what to say to the two of them, so they had to nod their heads heavily: "Take care!" ”

Although there are not many words, the feelings are fully revealed.

Bai Qi could understand Li Lin's mood, and at this time a smile appeared on his face, and said, "Well, you have a smooth journey too." Wait until the next time we meet, and then we'll work together again. ”

"Brother Lin, take care!" Zhuge Xiaoqiang put away his bitter gourd face and said solemnly.

"yes, okay."

"Uncle Xue, you have to take care too."

"Okay, I'd like to see the results of your training the next time I come back." Xue Bufan said.

Then, Li Lin followed Xue Bufan and turned to leave.

Ouyang Qianyu turned his head and smiled at Bai Qi and Zhuge Xiaoqiang, and said, "Then I'll leave too, you have to come on, I'll come to see you when I'm free." ”

Immediately, Ouyang Qianyu also left with Xue Bufan and Li Lin.

Bai Qi and Zhuge Xiaoqiang stood quietly by the black pond, watching the three of them drift away from each other, and they didn't move until the three of them disappeared from view.

Immediately, Bai Qi opened the backpack containing the clothes and took out a few changes of clothes inside.

"Brother, what are you doing?" Zhuge Xiaoqiang asked.

As soon as I finished asking, I saw an egg-like body the size of a basketball jumping out of the backpack, sticking to the white, like a spoiled baby.

Bai Qi picked up the balls that were rubbing his clothes, touched its eggshells, and soothed: "Okay, don't make trouble yet, wait for me to clean up my clothes." ”

Dan Dan immediately obediently did not move, and was honestly held by Bai Qi.

Zhuge Xiaoqiang was suddenly pleasantly surprised, with the little thigh of Dandan, you can hold it here, so you don't have to worry about any danger.

"Brother, let's go find the Sleeping Moon Cave first." Zhuge Xiaoqiang suggested.

Before entering the Bagua Forest to practice, it is best to have a place to live as a base to ensure daily life. And the Sleeping Moon Cave is undoubtedly the best choice.

"Hmm." Bai Qi put his clothes back into his backpack, hugged Dandan, and went to the sleeping moon cave next to the black pond with Zhuge Xiaoqiang.

According to the route Ouyang Qianyu just said, the Mianyue Cave is to turn left by the Black Water Pond, which is exactly the opposite direction to the Bagua Forest.

So, Bai Qi and the two walked along the left, and after about two minutes, they saw a pitch-black meniscus-shaped cave, presumably this was the sleeping moon cave that Ouyang Qianyu said.

Zhuge Xiaoqiang took out the flashlight in his bag and opened the way into the cave with the light in front.

Because the depth of the cave is not long, Zhuge Xiaoqiang only walked a few steps to the inner wall of the bottom of the cave, and it is estimated that it is about ten meters deep.

"Let's find a dry place to put the bag first." Bai Qi in the back said.

"Okay." Zhuge Xiaoqiang took the flashlight and shone around, and found that there was a big stone on the left side of the inner wall, like a big bed, which was probably made by the former mountain hunters when they came here.

Then, Zhuge Xiaoqiang walked to the side of the stone bed, and a layer of green light appeared on his hand, which turned into a strong wind in an instant. Immediately, he used the strong wind to sweep the dust from the stone bed.

With this sweep, I saw that the thick dust and smoke were carried up by the strong wind, and then scattered to the left and right, billowing down. It is clear that no one has been here for a long time.

In the blink of an eye, a clean and tidy stone bed appeared in front of me.

"Brother, put your backpack here." Zhuge Xiaoqiang said to Bai Qi behind him.

"Okay."

Both took off their backpacks and placed them on the stone bed.

"What time is it?" Bai Qi asked.

Zhuge Xiaoqiang raised his wrist and pressed the light button on the watch, looked at the time on it and said, "It's six and fifteen." ”

Although the days are long and the nights are short in summer, due to the environment here, it gets darker than outside, so the risk of getting lost in the Bagua Forest now increases, so Bai Qi decided: "Okay, I'll go outside to get some firewood, let's rest here for one night, and then go to the Bagua Forest tomorrow." ”

"Well, I'll go get it too."

Later, the two brothers went to the outside of the cave to collect local materials, and used lightning and wind to chop off the branches, or directly broke the branches with violence.

Of course, Dan Dan will occasionally insert a kick and hit the top of the egg, directly breaking the trunk of a large tree, which is quite fierce.

However, Dandan himself didn't seem to realize his fierceness, and just wanted to show himself in front of Bai Qi, with a look of "Baby is amazing, right?" Praise the baby" is full of interest.

Bai Qi naturally will not be stingy with praise, while stroking the eggshell, while praising the ability of the egg, the balls are happy to jump, happy Taotao.

Then, Bai Qi and Zhuge Xiaoqiang carried these dry branches back into the cave in batches, back and forth four or five times, and it seemed that they were ready to fight a protracted war.

At night, the canyon is gloomy, a little cold, and it seems secluded, but with the sound of gurgling water and the sound of the breeze, it moves in the quiet, giving people a sense of relaxation and leisure.

In the Sleeping Moon Cave, in front of the stone bed, a pile of firewood burns. Bai Qi and Zhuge Xiaoqiang sat on the edge of the stone bed and began to eat compressed biscuits for dinner.

At this time, the two especially missed the days at Hoba Yiliao's house. At that time, every meal was three meats and three vegetables with one soup, and the food was fragrant and fragrant.

And look at the front of me, I am gnawing on hard compressed biscuits, which are difficult to swallow. However, the stream water here is sweet and delicious, and even if you can't swallow it, you can use the stream water to flush it into your throat and digestive tract.

At this time, Dan Dan was already lying on the white sleeping bag, motionless, as if he was resting, which was rare. According to Dandan's cheerful temperament in the past, if it hadn't been noisy until late, it wouldn't have been quiet, but I didn't expect tonight to be surprising.

However, Bai Qi didn't care about the state of Dandan, only when it hadn't adapted to the new environment, or when it was tired from chopping firewood in the evening...... In short, he treats DanDan like a child, so he won't be surprised by Dandan's behavior no matter how he behaves.

"Brother, what do you think our fathers will leave here for us?" Zhuge Xiaoqiang said after taking a sip of stream water. Every time he asked Xue Bufan before, Xue Bufan was silent, which increased his curiosity. Now that I'm here, my inner curiosity is naturally revealed.

"Fathers?" Bai Qi did not answer immediately, but looked at the dark place in the cave, as if the darkness there could be extended indefinitely, and also traced and moved forward with his thoughts.

In Bai Qi's memory, there is not the slightest impression of his father's generation, so he doesn't know what kind of person his father is and what kind of personality he has, so it is difficult to guess what they will leave for him.

"Brother?"

"I don't know." Bai Qi was interrupted by Zhuge Xiaoqiang, came back to his senses and shook his head, "Maybe we will know tomorrow." ”

"Yes." Zhuge Xiaoqiang nodded, anyway, I've been waiting for so long, and there is no need to rush one night.

Later, Bai Qi added some firewood to the fire to ensure that the temperature in their vicinity was not too low.

Then, after eating the dry food, the two people got into their sleeping bags and prepared for bed.

It wasn't long before there was only a slight snoring in the cave.

Quieter ...... Deeper Evenings

The next morning, before the sun rose, the balls on the side of the white face had already moved, it seemed that they had slept early and well last night, and now they were full of energy and alive.

After a while, Bai Qi, who felt movement beside him, opened his eyes.

Zhuge Xiaoqiang also felt the movement and woke up.

Immediately, the two got up, put the sleeping bag in their bags, and then went to the black pond to wash up briefly, and walked to the Bagua Forest on the right with excitement and curiosity.

Not long after, Bai Qi and Zhuge Xiaoqiang, who were holding the ball, stood in front of the gossip forest, both with shocked faces. At a glance, this is simply a primeval forest, with ancient trees towering to the sky, ten thousand trees verdant, dense layers, covering the sky and the sun, no wonder there is no entry and no exit.

The two discussed for a while, and decided to explore the edge of the Bagua Forest first, and then go deeper after they were familiar with the surrounding environment.

Subsequently, the two entered the Bagua Forest.

At intervals, Shiraki releases electric shocks that leave conspicuous marks on yew, tealis or horsetail trees to mark the road and facilitate return.

After walking for about ten minutes, Bai Qi and the two came to an area where the trees were shorter than the other forest areas, and saw several peach trees.

It's the height of summer, and it's the season when the peach bears fruit, so the tree is full of small peaches.

Bai Qi and the two of them suddenly became excited, and breakfast had fallen!

"Xiaoqiang, it's up to you." Bai Qi said.

"Okay." A layer of green light immediately appeared on the soles of Zhuge Xiaoqiang's feet, and in an instant, it turned into a strong wind and took him into the air and landed on the peach tree.

Then, Zhuge Xiaoqiang happily picked peaches on the treetops, and said to Bai Qi under the tree: "Brother, go on." ”

"Okay."
