Chapter 4 Departure Blocked

After dinner, we didn't say anything all night, and we were still asleep when we were woken up by Uncle Galu in the outhouse.

I got up sleepily, saw that the time was about five o'clock, and knew that I would leave early today, so I didn't hesitate, and got up and dressed and went to the outhouse to wash.

The water used for washing is the river, and the ice is clear to the bone, which makes people feel refreshed in an instant.

In a few minutes, the other two also cleaned up, only Jiang Li had difficulty getting up, and when she saw us holding hot goat milk to drink, she quickly finished washing.

After taking a big sip of goat's milk, I went to the door of the yurt alone to breathe fresh air. There was a one-horned car in the distance, and I almost forgot about the three of them, and when I thought about it again, my mood was immediately a little heavy, and the good mood of the morning was only half left.

I almost didn't recognize the three people who got out of the car, and they were dressed in completely different outfits from yesterday. All three of them wore black jumpsuits that looked waterproof and a bit like a wetsuit. He wears high-waisted hiking boots of the same brand, a black light woolen hat, a pair of windproof goggles similar to large swimming goggles on the hat, and a colorful scarf folded into a triangle around his neck.

Straddling the back waist is a military short knife with the handle in the right-hand direction. Each person carries a medium-sized hiking bag, and they don't know what to pack. Each person has a bundle of thick rope hanging from the back of their bag, a small wolf's eye flashlight hanging on the left side, and different other things hanging separately.

A one-horned bag with a longbow hanging on the right side, this bow is not an ordinary old-fashioned hunting bow, but a silver-white metal, foldable, and scoped. There is a quiver next to it, which is also similar to a high-grade toothpick holder, pumping one and then exposing the end of the next.

The young assistant of the unicorn has a black crossbow hanging on the right side of the bag, which is much more professional than the kind that I used before with the fat brother, and there is a red dot sight on it, which is the kind of aiming place where there can be a small red dot, Zhao Tiesuo has popularized it for us before. There was a horizontal row of slots on the strap of his backpack tied horizontally around his waist, and exactly ten crossbow arrows pointed downward, neatly arranged on it. And the bundle of rope he carried was different, and a crossbow arrow was fixed to the end of the rope. At the top of his backpack, there was also a short shovel horizontally, with a triangular handle at one end, similar to a fire shovel, army green, which looked like the kind of professional trenches in the army.

Su Rina is different, in addition to the same outfit, knife, backpack, rope, flashlight, only a plush toy is hung on her bag, so that her energetic whole body equipment, immediately integrated some girls' cute atmosphere, it feels very compatible, but the professional level is greatly reduced.

The three of them got out of the car with smiles on their faces.

I nodded at them in a friendly way, and didn't forget to joke with them: "If you go into the mountains and play around, you won't make it look like a spy in a spy, right?" It's not a parachute on your back, is it? ”

The unicorn and the assistant didn't speak, just smiled happily, nodded at me and went into the yurt.

Surina walked straight up to me, carrying a large bag of things, which I could tell had brought us breakfast, all in a lunch box.

She stretched out her hand and said, "Why don't you hurry up yet?" Sink to death. ”

I hurriedly took it, ran into the house happily, and distributed it to everyone, not only the four of us, but also Uncle Garu's family of three. Inside the box was a large piece of fried egg, underneath which was rice, which Surina said was called omelet rice, a traditional Mongolian food.

I think that herders don't drive chickens, ducks and geese to herd, so Mongolian tradition is not reliable, but I didn't refute her, don't pick and choose if you have something to eat.

Jiang Li, who was still complaining about drinking milk and diarrhea, was quite happy to see the omelet rice, if it weren't for the one-horned duo, he couldn't wait to rush up and kiss Su Rina.

After the meal, the unicorn turned his head and said a word to his assistant in Mongolian, and then his assistant took off his backpack and took out four rectangular iron bottles from it. The texture is similar to aluminum alloy, polished to a very bright finish, with a small protrusion on both sides, and a round army-green rope is worn inside the small hole of the protrusion, which is very delicate.

The iron bottle is similar in size to an old-fashioned aluminum lunch box, but on one side of the lunch box, there is a long neck neck with a screwed lid on it.

After the one-horned assistant handed us the four boxes, Surina said, "This is a gift from him to you, and it is very convenient to use on the road." ”

I took a closer look at the box, and it turned out to be a multi-functional lunch box, with the lid open on the side to be the lunch box, and the bottleneck was the handle of the lunch box. When the lid is closed, there is a kettle, and you can drink water by unscrewing the cap.

It's the first time I've seen it, and the fat guy likes it even more, and he can't put it down to look left and right, and then he tied the rope to the backpack.

Including the one-horned three, everyone followed the example of the fat brother and found a place on the backpack to tie the lunch box.

After nodding and thanking the unicorn, I smiled bitterly, the people are well-equipped, and all the things hanging on the bag are practical things, the three of us, in addition to the change of clothes in the bag, is food. There is an iron box hanging outside the bag, or someone sent it, it is too earthy in comparison, and I have the heart to take out my scimitar to show it, thinking that if the unicorn sees this good thing, find a chance to slaughter it for me, it will be difficult to do, and I will dispel the idea of showing off my wealth.

But compared to Uncle Garu, we are much stronger. Uncle Galu carried a waist bag on his waist, just like the kind of conductor on the long-distance bus, except for the lunch box just delivered by the unicorn on the belt of the waist bag, he only hung a Mongolian scimitar wrapped in an old leather case, and he only wore an old sportswear, and the trouser legs were still open, and he used a rope to turn the mouth.

After resting for a while, it was almost six o'clock, and Uncle Galu gave an order: "Go." Everyone got up collectively and walked out of the door of the yurt.

I had only walked twenty meters before I could not walk. In front of us was the big river in front of Uncle Garu's house, separating us from the mountain, and on the other side of the river was the mountain pass where the water flowed, and we could only stare at it, and it must be impossible to cross.

The one-horned assistant is more neat, has sat on the ground and began to untie his shoes, it seems that he is going to swim across the river, but a few of us do not have this ability, such a wide river, can not swim over Another said, the river water is very cold in the morning, we swam over people frozen, soaking wet, how to go down?

Uncle Galu stretched out his hand to stop the assistant who was about to take off his boots, then pointed to a rock in front of him, and said to us, "Go, take the boat out with me." ”

"And the boat?" I stared, incredulous.

Uncle Galu smiled and said, "If you have a boat, I used to go to the river to fish, just a hobby, but then we had an accident here, and I never used it again." ”

We walked in the direction of Uncle Garu's finger, and there was a stone field by the river, which was paved very smoothly. Everyone worked together, you and I threw stones to the side one by one, and after a while, wood was exposed underneath, and there was really a wooden boat, which was buried under the stones by Uncle Garu.

Seeing that there was a real ship, everyone's speed increased significantly, and the assistant of the unicorn used his shovel for the first time, and the speed was much faster than before.

In a moment we were tired and sweaty, and everyone including the unicorn sat down on the aligned stones to rest, and only the assistant was still happily digging the boat with a shovel, and the speed was still very fast, and there was no sign of fatigue, and he beat everyone else.

We were bored sitting on the rocks, so I asked Uncle Garu, "You told me about the change, what kind of change can affect the fishing in the river?" Is the river rising? Flash floods? ”

Uncle Galu shook his head, and then said calmly: "That was five years ago, our residents like to go to this river to fish, the river is not urgent, there are many fish in the river, and the catch is not for sale, but for their own families to improve their lives." First, three young men went fishing in a boat, only to come back, and the other disappeared while sitting in the bow of the boat. Later, there were two brothers, the elder brother first drove a canoe to the river valley, and when the younger brother arrived, the elder brother had disappeared, and it took three days to find his brother's body, and there were no wounds on the body, but the body was full of purple and red marks, as if he had been hit with a blunt object, and the bones were shattered, and the reason could not be found. Later, the shaman's husband and son also disappeared when they went fishing together, and their bodies have not been found. ”

Yan Qiu hurriedly asked, "Just disappeared out of thin air?" No one in life, no corpse in death? ”

Uncle Garu nodded.

The fat brother said again: "Is there a perverted murderer nearby?" How cruel is it to be hit with a blunt object and shatter the bones? How did it get resolved? ”

Uncle Galu continued: "Then the shaman did a ritual and she said that one of us had salvaged the spirit of the river god and angered the gods, and the gods had punished us with a magic weapon and asked us not to go into the water to catch fish in the future. ”

We all looked at each other, wondering if we would be punished by the river god if we went into the water this time.
