Chapter 7 Swamp Crossing Scheme
"Sen, you have a point, and for that, I believe in its magic. It's just that the meteorite you mentioned is embedded in your phone? "After listening to my words, Professor Xia was quite interested in meteorism, so I suspect that he seems to have listened to this and has no interest in anything else.
"Well, Uncle Xia, if you are interested, I will take it down and give it to you for study." As I spoke, I reached for my phone.
"Don't! A gentleman does not take the love of others. Your 'strong magnetic compass' was also developed by you with great effort, and losing the meteoric magnetic is equivalent to abandoning your martial arts. I appreciate your kindness! Professor Xia stretched out his hand to stop me and thanked me.
Seeing this, I nodded to him and said, "Well, if you need anything in the future, just mention it." ”
"Sen!" The listener on the side called out to me, his expression very puzzled.
"What's the matter, Listen?" Seeing that she seemed to be thinking about a question, I wondered.
"That's right," she frowned, "just when the two of you were discussing meteoric meteorism, I was thinking about what you said, you said that your 'strong magnetic compass' contains three books of theoretical knowledge, but I can't figure out how that 'Wild World' is related to the first two.
"Are you exaggerating again?"
When I heard this, I patted my head and explained, "I thought you were wondering something, but this is it!"
"Actually, I'm telling the truth, and I won't blaspheme it about Kanyuxue. The "Wilderness World" is different from the previous two books, it is from the classification of animals and plants, scientific names, geographical distribution, wilderness survival methods and a series of theoretical knowledge extracted the essence of arguments in the "strong magnetic compass" software, so as to make effective data analysis and processing of the environment, as a survival manual.
"Besides, I just set up that formation with stones on the ground, in fact, to cover up the fact that I ate soil. Due to the dryness of the sky and the compaction of the soil, the data analysis of the 'strong magnetic compass' needs to scan the moist soil before it can be operated.
"Therefore, it is necessary to identify the properties of the soil by tasting the soil in such an ancient way."
Hearing me say this, Ling Xin smiled at me: "Sen, you have also eaten the soil, can you tell me if it can find some plants that can be beautified?" ”
I didn't know how to answer this question for a while, but seeing her looking at me so sincerely, I said to her, "Well, theoretically, it's possible." ”
After answering Lingxin's question, Professor Xia seemed to see my embarrassment, or was afraid that Lingxin would have some questions there on a whim, so he said to her, "Lingxin, we are here to work, don't wander your mind elsewhere." ”
When Lingxin heard his father say this, he seemed unhappy, pouted, and retorted: "Dad, why am I doing this because of my own selfish desires, I thought, if I find a plant that can be beautified, and promote it to the market, won't it benefit the society!" ”
Wow! With such a high consciousness of benefiting society, why do I want to laugh so much when I talk about it from the mouth of the listener. In the end, I couldn't hold back my laughter.
"Don't laugh!" Ling Xin glared at me, "You, you, still smiling......"
"Okay, let's not delve into this issue first, and you two don't make trouble. Let's think about how to get to Quanshan first! Professor Xia said and looked at Ling Xin, "Ling Xin, you take out the bread in the bag and eat it with Sen first, it is estimated that you two are also hungry, so let's set off after eating." ”
"Dad, what about you!" After listening to Professor Xia's words, Ling Xin asked him.
"I'm not hungry yet," Professor Xia replied after looking up at the sky, and then looked at me, "Sen, according to you, how do we get over that swamp!" ”
"Build a raft!" After I said to him simply and clearly, I took a sip of the bread handed by Lingxin, "Uncle Xia, you were not thirsty at first, and now you are not hungry, how did you do it, it was almost seven or eight hours, and the weather was still so hot." ”
"How do you build a raft?" He skipped my question about his "immortal cultivation" and asked me about how to build a raft.
At this time, I saw his eyes glancing at Ling Xin, who was sorting out the food in the backpack, and at this time I subconsciously understood that his abnormal behavior of a normal person - the food in the backpack may not have been brought enough because he was in a hurry to go out.
Because I teased him just now, I am ashamed of this, but Professor Xia, who has a lot of bearing, doesn't care about this.
At this time, I walked up to him, looked with him at the swamp under the slope in front of me, and said, "Uncle Xia. I don't think it's realistic for us to hike there because the swamp is covered with mud.
"But the buoyancy of the water, which is a few feet deep, can carry the weight of the three of us.
"So we can build a raft and row it over."
Professor Xia listened to my suggestion, thought for a while, and nodded in agreement: "Well, it seems that this is the only way to work at present, so that's it." Let's build a raft now! ”
Because I needed to build a raft, I gave Professor Xia a better suggestion: "Uncle Xia, you see that we are building our own raft now, and I don't know how much time it will take." In my opinion, my old friend Uncle Zhang's house is nearby, and we went to him for help, and his family inherits the art of wood. ”
"Dad, Sen, what are you two talking about, I've packed up, let's go!" Ling Xin walked over and approached the two of us.
"Listen to your heart, don't be in a hurry. I heard from Sen that there is a carpenter in the vicinity, and we will ask him to help build a bamboo raft, otherwise we will not be able to go up the mountain, and the swamp is too dangerous! Professor Xia looked at Lingxin and told her what I thought, then looked around and wondered, "Sen, these surroundings are so barren, they don't look like Ye people?" ”
After listening to Professor Xia's words, Ling Xin also looked puzzled on this question and looked around.
When I heard this, I laughed, and blamed myself for not explaining clearly, so I said to them: "Uncle Xia, listen to your heart." Uncle Zhang's family is on the edge of a deep pool in the valley near this earth temple. Follow our current road, drive forward for 5 minutes, go straight for 1000 meters, reach a wooded area, turn into another hill, and you can follow the winding stone road to his house: the whole journey is estimated to take about 30 minutes. ”
"Then what are we waiting for, let's go early and come back early!" For her first time out of the internship, it was really boring to stay in one place for a long time, so Lingxin urged us both to walk towards the car.
At this time, because of the hot weather and Professor Xia, who had not eaten or drunk for a long time, his lips were white. When I saw Lingxin getting into the car, I handed the bottle of unboiled water in my hand to Professor Xia and said to him, "Uncle Xia, come, drink some water!"
"Actually, I can see that you want to save food for the two of us, so you would rather not eat or drink.
"But have you ever thought about how sad it would be if you fell ill because of this?
"So, drink it first. If there is not enough food, I will accompany you to starve, and I will not let Lingxin suffer for this. ”
"Eh, okay, then let's go first, go to Master Zhang's house, you see, Lingxin is in the car." After Professor Xia took the water, he suggested that we go to Uncle Zhang's house.
