Chapter 386: Overnight

The heavy rain shows no signs of stopping, but as the sky gets darker, the rain gets heavier and heavier, and the low-lying areas are filled with cement and rainwater in the ravines, making it difficult to move an inch. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Seeing this, Li You suggested that Tian Chun stop for the time being today, find a place to set up camp, and spend the night. Tian Chun didn't have any opinions, but all the way over, there was no suitable place to be stationed, so he had to say: "This area is not suitable for camping, let's take a look at it a little longer, Jiang Chun said, if you go twenty miles in this direction, there will be a servant's village, where you can spend the night." ”

Li You nodded. The twenty miles that Tian Chun said did not mean that he would continue to walk twenty miles forward, but that he would be the foot distance after entering the mountain. In fact, since I set out in the morning, I have walked more than ten miles. The mountains are rugged, the forests are densely covered with grass and trees, and the roads are slippery and difficult to walk in heavy rain, and it is actually very good to be able to walk more than ten miles of mountain roads in a day.

"Hurry up and hurry, when you get to the village in front, you can eat hot food!" Tian Chun shouted. This is not for the ink man, if there is only the ink man in the team, it is his style to rush all night, what wind and rain hinder the way, it is all hours. But there are actually not many ink players in the team, and most of the team members, except for Li You, Mo Fangyuan and Sun Buchang, are all recently recruited refugees. Although they are all good people, their physique cannot be compared with the ink who takes suffering as pleasure after all.

"It's time to rest...... Sun Buchang walked in front of Li You, listened to Tian Chun's words, and said to Li You in a courteous tone: "Uncle, your body is just better, you can't work too hard, you should listen to me, make a pair of sliding rods for everyone to carry, then you won't be so tired......"

Li You waved his hand and said with a look of disgust: "You come to lift?!" He said that. There is no shortage of labor in the team, but in this kind of weather, these environments are still sitting on sliding poles, not to mention the enslavement of the people, this safety is also very low, walking is still unstable, on the sliding pole, not falling along the way dozens of heel fights are not finished.

Sun Buchang smiled, there was still a certain gap between his mouth and his actual loyalty, but he still didn't change his face, patted his chest and said that if Li You didn't dislike him for not doing this job, it might not be safe to carry the sliding rod, then it would be no problem at all.

Mo Fangyuan, who was following Li You, gave Sun Buchang a knife, and said, the sliding rod is not stable, but Sun Buchang's back is spacious, and it is also a good way to carry Li You on his back.

The two have never dealt with each other, and when they have the opportunity to quarrel, they will inevitably tear each other apart. Li You was tired of listening to it, and asked the two of them to stop talking.

The twilight in the rain curtain gradually disappeared, and after the darkness shrouded in, the surroundings were pitch black, this kind of thick darkness like ink, made Li You have the illusion that he had re-entered the dark night zone of the underground world. After his pupils were focused, he gradually adapted to the darkness of the forest, and Li You gradually eased up. But there was no one else in the team who had this ability, and the torches fluttered in the rainy night, and the visibility was not a single foot. If it is flat land, it is fine, but in this vast and roadless forest, everyone is like a fly without a head.

"Come with me." Li You pulled out his machete and came to the front of the line.

In this era of war and lack of food and clothing, many people lack nutrition and have night blindness. More than half of the people in the team had such symptoms.

Fortunately, it is not a matter of a day or two for the people to follow Li You, to deal with night blindness, he knows some methods, the scientific method is to give these people more animal offal, and there are also a lot of local methods, boiling pine needle water for everyone to drink. Although it did not completely eradicate the night blindness of the people, it probably improved. Otherwise, as soon as the night falls, these people will have to stop eating completely.

The speed at which Li You opened the way was not comparable to the ink master. While chopping open the mountain road blocked by shrubs and vines, Li You felt endless emotion in his heart. Once upon a time, he was still a soy sauce player in Linglong's expedition, but now he has become the most powerful figure in the fierce group of ink people, and it can even be said that the ink people in the team are not necessarily his opponents, and he has to lament the impermanence of life.

But this did not make Li You feel much joy. If he could, he still wanted to be just an ordinary member of the team, protected by others.

"There's a light over there!" After walking around the mountainside for a while, Li You split the branches in front of him that blocked his view and cried out in surprise. On the mountainside, less than two miles away in a straight line, two faint fires flickered. This light, except for Li You, no one else can see it clearly, even Tian Chun, squinting his eyes, also feels that the direction Li You is pointing to is still a dark rain curtain.

"Just come with me." Li You is very confident in his eyesight. The two flames were not oil lamps, but torches. It should be the torch at the entrance of the village, used to guard against fierce beasts. It's just a little far away, and it looks like it's only the light of an oil lamp.

Looking at the mountain and running a dead horse, Li You has already experienced this sentence. Visually speaking, the village was only about two miles away, and under the winding mountain road and the rain, the team had to walk for more than an hour before approaching the village.

From a distance, the village is built on a rocky plateau that stretches down from the mountain wall, and it looks like there are seventy or eighty families. Deep in the mountains, such a village is no longer small. The periphery of the village is piled up with stones to build its three or four zhang high wall, although the gate is wooden, but from the wooden door is made of the thick and thin trunk of the tree, you know that it can not be viewed with ordinary eyes.

The light of the fire that Li You saw was the brazier burning on the walls on both sides of the wooden door. There is a shelter on top of the brazier, which is protected from wind and rain.

There was a faint figure moving in the shed. It is a well-defended village. From this aspect, it can also be reflected that the seemingly quiet and peaceful forest is not as calm as it seems.

Seeing this scene, both Li You and Tian Chun frowned. The village is so strict that it must be wary of outsiders, and it is impossible to stay in it.

However, Li You and Tian Chun didn't want to give up without trying. Even if the villagers are unwilling to let them in, they can camp on the high ground outside the village, and they can stay overnight.

"Who ......" Li You and Tian Chun walked over, and a hundred steps away, some villagers shouted loudly in local dialect. Li You didn't understand, but Tian Chun understood a little, stopped, first answered a few words loudly, and then slowly approached, bringing the torch close to his face, so that the other party could see his face more clearly.
