Chapter 161: The Third Child

The earth after the snow is a dazzling white, the seemingly warm sunlight is actually getting colder, white will emit light, after a long time will hurt people's eyes, see things will become blurred, they do not have any goggles, and can only try not to walk carefully in the direction of direct sunlight.

This is the down mountain, the three of them brought a lot of things, fortunately, they all have the experience of living in the Northeast, cut a few branches to make a small sled, Doudou was pulled by the fat man on it to temporarily forget the pain of grandpa's departure, she was amused and giggled.

"It's really tiring to take a child," to the foot of the mountain, as long as you turn over the mountain in front of you, there should be a fairy platform in front, and the river water that is still flowing slowly in the middle is crystal clear. The fat man was very careful and chose to use the heating method, after all, the beanie is still too small. "This thing is delicious, I'll buy it for you when I go back."

Nibbling on the baked steamed buns, Cha Wenbin smiled: "Come on, I have to call you uncle, don't keep demoting yourself." ”

"Doesn't that look young?" The fat man tilted his head, and the monster was not far from him, and the thing was with him along the way, and you said that you could completely not pay attention to it, but it was impossible, and I didn't know what it wanted to do with alcohol.

"Yes, I think it's a very solid bodyguard," he took a steamed bun from the stick and threw it back, "Big brother, please eat, you're welcome!" ”

Turning around, the fat man continued to accompany Doudou, and not long after, suddenly a big hand was on his shoulder. As soon as the fat man turned his head, the three-petal mouth was cracked and he was smiling at himself......

"Oh mom," the fat man jumped up in fright, and he didn't forget to pick up the child with him, and jumped so fast that he stepped on the fire in front of him, and the sparks that bounced made his pants suddenly become embarrassed. While slapping, the fat man shouted: "Second child, help!" ”

At that time, Ye Qiu and Cha Wenbin were washing their faces more than ten meters away from him, and as soon as they heard the sound, they immediately rushed back, and the three of them tried their best to keep Doudou in the middle. The thing shook its head at them, then at the ground, and slowly it raised its hand and pointed at the fire, its eyes narrowed, not knowing whether it was laughing or what it was doing.

"What the hell does this guy mean?"

"I see," Cha Wenbin took two steps forward and spread his hands, which is a common harmless gesture in nature. He half-squatted and slowly leaned towards the fire, his eyes were always on the monster, and after seeing that the other party did not move, Cha Wenbin picked up the steamed bun that had fallen on the ground and had been baked. He put it to his mouth and blew it lightly, the burnt steamed bun exuded the fragrance of flour, and he slowly handed his hand to the monster, and said softly, "Eat, please eat." ”

Cha Wenbin's action was extremely dangerous, Ye Qiu was sweating for him from afar, that monster was close to him, and the cracked mouth and sharp canine teeth could easily bring him over and bite his throat at any time.

The two looked at each other again, the monster looked at him, he looked at the monster, Cha Wenbin always kept smiling, he believed that even if there was a language barrier, any species could identify danger through each other's emotions.

Slowly, the thing raised its hand, it turned its neck and stretched out its hand, and when it was about to touch it for the first time, it retracted it, as if to test whether the other party was really willing to give it food. The second time, I finally made up my mind, and took the steamed bun from Cha Wenbin's hand with lightning speed, and the three-petal mouth was opened and the whole stuff was gone.

Seeing that it seemed to be a little unsatisfied, Cha Wenbin turned his head to the fat man and said, "Is there any jerky, bring some more." ”

"Eat, it's all yours." Cha Wenbin held a large handful of beef jerky in his hand, which was almost a day's ration for one of them, the monster didn't seem to have seen this thing, Cha Wenbin first took a piece and threw it into his mouth, and soon the claw stretched out. This time, it seemed to be so pleased with the taste of the jerky that it didn't swallow it in one gulp, but tasted it in small pieces, and its eyes narrowed so much that it was about to become a slit.

Taking advantage of this effort, Cha Wenbin decided to simply make another more daring attempt, he cautiously took a step forward, the thing was slightly startled, and then continued to chew on the jerky. Seeing this, Cha Wenbin took another step forward, and slowly he stretched out his hand, and the fat man screamed: "Cha Ye, don't mess around, it can tear you up in an instant!" ”

Cha Wenbin still maintained his previous posture, when his hand touched the head of the thing, the other party did not react, and his heart that kept beating so fast that he didn't even dare to breathe at this time. At last he began to stroke the other's head, and the monster was unsuspecting, and from time to time it looked up at him and grinned, though it did laugh in a funny way......

With a sigh of relief, Cha Wenbin stood beside it with some relief, and the thing completely let down his guard at this time, this person and monster turned out to be as harmonious as a person and a pet.

After eating the jerky, it went to the river to drink some water, and the distance between it and people was no longer so far away. After Cha Wenbin's attempt, the fat man also began to learn to behave, he touched the skin of the thing, which was a little rough but unusually smooth. And Doudou was very happy to see this thing, and that thing seemed to pay special attention to Doudou, it actually took advantage of their inattention to stick out its tongue and lick the child, which made Doudou laugh and tremble.

Facing the noon sun again, the thing no longer kept such a distance from them, but began to take the initiative to walk into the crowd, it was very curious about everything, it would go to the bag that the fat man put on the sleigh, and it would also touch the long sword that Cha Wenbin was carrying, and occasionally it would be naughty to jump on the sleigh for a while, so that the fat man didn't find out that it was the ghost of that thing until he couldn't pull it.

"Or, give him a name, I see that it is a three-petal mouth, and I don't know Ye Qiu, so I just call it the third child." The fat man turned around and said, "Third, how is it?" Look at it, that's your second brother, that's your eldest brother, what about me, it's your uncle, remember? ”

"The third, the third" Doudou clapped his hands and kept cheering, this scene is indeed a strange scene, there is an extra partner for no reason, and I don't know where it jumped out......

The uphill slope is very difficult, especially with a child, this day was very good, but at one or two o'clock in the afternoon, the wind and clouds suddenly changed. The black clouds swept the sky in large swaths, the low air pressure was accompanied by the biting cold wind in the mountains, and the worst thing was the snow powder hanging on the trees, and the large snow powder was blown down and blown into people's eyes.

"Master, let's find a place to avoid it, Doudou hasn't spoken for a long time, we have to take care of the child if we can bear it."

"No," Cha Wenbin said: "In any case, you have to go up the hill before dark, and if it snows again, you will definitely be trapped, and then it is really a dilemma, you move the child to your chest and turn your back to the outside." ”

Later, the snot can form ice edges, and the eyebrows, hair, and eyelashes are covered with a thick layer of frost. The cold in the south is different from the north, and the humidity in the air can make people feel cold to the bone. After a long time, they finally reached the top of the mountain before dark, and their legs had become as imperat as sticks.

Winding around the back of the hill was a large rock with a few pine trees growing diagonally outward, leaving them the only small space they could camp in. Several balls of alcohol were thrown in a row, and the damp pine branches began to burn with huge smoke, choking people's tears, but it was a blessing to have a fire, especially in this field.

The fat man reminded: "We have these few pieces of fuel left, and if we can't find a suitable place to use dry firewood, we won't be able to make a fire." ”

"One more day," Cha Wenbin said, "one more day we will be able to reach that immortal platform." ”

"Are you sure that foggy place across from us is where we want to go?" The fat man said: "I'm afraid I can't get to it in a day, it takes half a day to go down from here, and the mountain on the opposite side looks much steeper than here," After that, the fat man knocked on the layer of stone behind him with his hand and said: "When the weather was good just now, I observed that it was all stones, covered with a layer of ice shell, and we didn't have spikes." ”

"Wait a minute," Cha Wenbin suddenly got up and said, "You get out of the way and bring a torch." ”

The fat man turned around and saw Cha Wenbin standing in front of the stone wall behind him, because of the fire, the bottom layer of ice shell had begun to fall off, did he find something again?

The dark red lines are mixed with water droplets and moss, which is indeed very difficult to find, and after slowly peeling back the ice shell, the true face inside is revealed little by little, and the red paint on the stone wall is still painted with some murals!

The frescoes depict figures that are very similar to those they had seen in the Savage Caves, but with some differences, depicting a large group of people in a long line from afar, and a man lying in a mountain in the middle of the mountain.

"It seems that the record of that year is correct," Cha Wenbin said: "This painting should be the ancestor of the Feng clan migrated from a distant hometown, I think the mountain people are the burial place of their ancestors, these murals are left here by the descendants of the Feng clan to commemorate this distant migration, it seems that we are following the road they once walked." ”

"There are three people with torches on the wild man's side, how can they assume it's us?" The fat man patted the sleeping monster lightly and said, "Also, what kind of enmity does this thing have with those savages?" Using us as bait, in fact, it seems that the third child is not a fierce and evil thing. ”

"There are some things that can only be seen with the development," Cha Wenbin said: "Judging from the various rituals performed by those savages, I think their ancestors will have some connection with the ancestors of the Feng clan, maybe they learned these things from their predecessors, and that mural is the best proof of this, maybe it was also the place where the Feng clan lived." ”
