Chapter 271: Seeing People Again
ps: Just to explain, that's it for today, and I'll make it up to you tomorrow, sorry.
The three of us didn't know what this place was, so we instinctively ran towards the open area, and when we looked back, this cave was hidden in the grass, and at first glance it looked like a rabbit hole, and no one would have thought that this cave led to a magical underground world.
However, at this time, we can only say goodbye to everything here, and hope that no one will ever disturb the peace of these people, they belong to the underground, not to our world.
After about half an hour of running, I stumbled and fell to the ground, and at this point, the tremor became even more violent, and I wondered if the earth would crack.
However, my fears did not materialize, but another unexpected thing was unleashed, and that was that the part of the place we had drilled out had collapsed, the cave was gone, and the woman I loved so much, Lala, was buried deep in the ground.
The earthquake came and went away quickly, and after only half an hour, calm was restored, however, the cave we came from no longer exists, and it is impossible to enter from here, so I can only pay tribute in my heart and bury this marriage deep in my heart.
Because we often deal with ghosts, so, although there is a certain sadness about the death of people, we still have to face it, and the only thing is that because of our stubbornness, we killed them and made us feel sorry.
Although I didn't harm Bo Yan, Bo Yan died because of me, how sad it is, even the fat man who has always been big and unruly is silent.
"Don't be sad, this is fate, our mission makes us have to come back, let's think about how to get out of the vast mountains, now we have no water, no food. There are only a few cigarettes left, and in order to survive, we have to pull ourselves together. ”
Huang Tian analyzed our current situation one by one, which cheered me up and the fat man, yes, the deceased is gone, the living are working hard, and we still have to live.
"In this way, I have more experience in survival in the wild, and I am just as fat as a fat man. I would like to make a suggestion, everyone will see how it is, if we can, we will walk slowly outside, I believe that one day we will be willing to walk out of the barren mountains and forests. ”
Huang Tian once followed his master all over the famous mountains and rivers, and his experience in survival in the wild is extremely rich, at least I can't compare, I have also encountered this kind of thing in the evening, but at most I am hungry for a day. My uncle would pick me up and eat and drink.
I nodded and glanced at the fat man, although the fat man was not convinced in all aspects. But when it came to survival in the wild, he was really unconvinced, so he also nodded, motioning Huang Tian to tell him his method. Let's take a look.
"First of all, I use the dragon viewing technique to see the direction of the nearby mountains, so that I can avoid going in the wrong direction. In addition, wherever there is good feng shui, there will inevitably be people living in it, and there will be people who choose to have more cemeteries there, since there is a cemetery, it must be not far from the population, what do you say? ”
Huang Tian said that the fat man and I nodded frequently, and he was proficient in the dragon viewing technique, and the fat man and I could only look at a rough idea, which was basically useless.
"In addition, our first task is to find a water source that can be drunk, this matter is particularly important, once people are dehydrated, they are not far from death, you two pay more attention to this, don't be idle when you are resting, me and the fat man are responsible for hunting and collecting wild fruits, Liangzi, you are responsible for collecting firewood and making a fire."
The two of us nodded again, this arrangement is not to say, and they have taken special care of me, what else can I say?
After the arrangement, Huang Tian climbed a big tree, observed the terrain of the leylines near him, and then came down and pointed in a direction and said: "There is a dragon vein here that spreads into the distance, it should be a mountain dragon, it must be right to follow this dragon vein." ”
Since Huang Tiandu said so, we threw off the eleventh road and slowly measured out, fortunately, we are used to walking the mountain road, and we can still hold on to it through gritted teeth.
Half a day later, we stopped by a small stream, it was already noon, after scooping water in the stream and drinking a full water, the fat man and Huang Tian went out to look for food, I picked up a lot of dry firewood, and some dried weeds, lit a bonfire, and waited for them.
I have to say that the wild survivability of these two goods is really not ordinary, in just half an hour, the fat man dug a few large sweet potatoes, and Huang Tian hit a pheasant.
After washing by the stream, I moved the fire to a position, the fat man dug a pit in the ground with a military shovel, threw the sweet potatoes in the pit, Huang Tian also plucked the pheasant and disemboweled, and then wrapped it in yellow mud, and found a few large leaves to wrap them up, and threw them together in the pit, and after the fat man covered it with a layer of soil, we transferred the fire again.
After burning for about an hour, and the firewood was finished, the fat man took off his coat, went to the creek and wet it, and brought it back to extinguish the fire, after all, in the mountains, if it caused a wildfire, we could not afford to take this responsibility.
Pulling the remaining charcoal ash away, the fat man carefully shoveled away the layer of soil on it with a military shovel, and suddenly a fresh fragrance came, making our stomachs grunt a few times.
The leaves that wrap the pheasant have long been roasted and crispy, and the yellow mud inside has also cracked open cracks, and the fragrance of sweet potatoes seeps into it, fragrant and sweet.
The fat man didn't care about the hot hands, and directly took out the pheasant and threw it on the ground, and the yellow mud fell to the ground one after another, revealing the yellow, orange and orange roast chicken inside.
"Haha! It's called Huaji, and Lao Tzu should also be called Huazi once, but it's a pity that there is no salt and condiments, and it would be even more refreshing if there was a bottle of happy wine. ”
The fat man shook his head and complained that there was no this, no that, and he still wanted to drink at this time? Save it!
I glanced at the fat man with disdain, this guy is the most unreliable, in this case, it's good to have it, and you still want to drink? It's just wishful thinking.
I didn't move the flower chicken, but picked up a piece of sweet potato and put it on the stone to dry, the sweet potato roasted by this method is the hottest, and there is no way to eat it without a certain amount of time, and it is hot to the mouth.
All in all, the meal was okay, but after I stopped, my legs hurt and I just wanted to lie on the ground and sleep.
Although it hurt at the beginning, it began to be numb as I walked, and when my legs were completely numb, I didn't feel the pain, but when I stopped, the numbness disappeared, and the soreness and pain made people cry.
It's not just me, even the fat man doesn't want to move, but if you can't stay in the mountains for one more day, you will suffer one more day, it's better to go out as soon as possible, and I now know why the children in the mountains desperately want to get out of the mountains and settle down in the city, because the conditions in the mountains are too difficult.
In some literary and artistic works, the mountains are said to be beautiful and abnormal, and the folk customs are simple, just like Tao Yuanming's Peach Blossom Spring, the ideal country, but unfortunately there is no Peach Blossom Source in reality, maybe the underground where Lala lives is a Peach Blossom Spring, but unfortunately that life does not belong to me.
After another afternoon, we stopped at a water source when it was dark, as usual it was the fat man and Huang Tian to find food, I lived, this time it took several hits to ignite the fire, the lighter was almost out of gas, isn't this a fatal thing?
No lighter means no fire, no fire means we're going to eat raw, and more importantly, to survive in the wild, which is not peaceful in the mountains.
Among the most famous wild animals in Helan Mountain are stone marten and golden leopard, stone marten is nothing, although it is also a carnivore, after all, it is too small, but the golden leopard is not ordinary, there is no fire at night, even if anyone is in the tree is not safe, this thing will climb trees.
This time we didn't hunt any animals, so we had to eat two sweet potatoes and some wild fruits to satisfy our hunger, and because we were tired from the day, we slept quickly.
When I woke up the next day, it was already dawn, and the fat man was tending to the fire, and the yellow sky was nowhere to be found, probably taking advantage of the dawn to see the terrain.
I went to the water's edge to wash up, I felt the only half of the fragrance left, took out a branch from the fire and lit it, took a beautiful sip, and held it for a long time before spitting it out.
At this moment, I knew that smoking was happiness, and the fat man saw me smoking, and he also felt half of it from his pocket, and we only had half of the cigarette butt left.
After a few puffs of cigarettes, I asked the fat man what Huang Tian was doing, and the fat man told me that he had dug a few traps in the nearby woods last night to see if any prey had fallen into them.
As he spoke, Huang Tian turned out from behind the tree, carrying a fat rabbit in his hand, and his gray-brown fur looked exceptionally oily and slippery.
The method of making a hare is completely different from that of a pheasant, and it is impossible to use the same method again, but it can only be roasted by fire, and the hare is skinned and gutted, and then threaded with a stick, and roasted in a circle on the fire.
This is the real game, eat it with a mouth full of oil, but there is no salt, and the fragrance cannot be revealed.
After eating, we washed our hands, put out the fire and began to walk slowly along the foot of the mountain, after a long day of trekking, we saw that we could feel a little human smell, and at noon, we finally saw the traces of man-made, and the fat man jumped with excitement.
After there are traces of man-made, it is not far from the population, the fat man proposed, don't stop to rest, go out in one go, go to a place where there are people and have a good meal, and then sleep beautifully, and then find a way to go back to the headquarters after resting enough.
Naturally, we had no opinion, and we hurried up one by one and slowly found a winding trail along the traces caused by man, which the mountain people stepped on with their feet.
This walk, all of a sudden, came to more than three o'clock in the afternoon, close to four o'clock, we saw a house in the distance, finally out of the mountain, it is not easy!
Just when we were cheering and running down the mountain, we suddenly heard a crisp bell in our ears, and someone was reading something, listening carefully, the fat man smiled: "This is a Taoist priest to exorcise ghosts, our business is coming, maybe anyone in this small village under the mountain is haunted."
