Chapter 186: Fire Gall

As I remember, after the blizzard stopped, layers of white waves surged on the snow, rushing towards the western expedition.

I thought that it was best to rush to the woods at full speed now, but now everyone was still bare-handed, and it was difficult to deal with the dough snow monster. So he ordered everyone to rush towards the woods at full speed like the wind.

Finally, the members of the Western Expedition were lucky enough to rush to the woods before the snow monsters arrived, but the enemy and us were only separated by the front and back feet, and they were about to fight each other-for-tat.

The playboy picked up a thick trunk and immediately turned to the fight, and the others followed suit, picking up the thick sticks and smashing the haphazard snow balls.

I saw that Chen Dong, who was unable to move, also leaned on the tree to join the battle, so the fat man who was so relaxed also picked up a thick wooden stick and hit the snowball very bravely. The crowd formed a very tight blockade between the trees, intercepting the dough snow monsters that kept bouncing up from the snow outside the trees, and I began to pick up dead wood and broken branches with peace of mind.

Tianyu and I quickly tied up the two large bundles of firewood, and then the playboy turned back to me and said, "Gather three more bundles, and each of the three guards will carry a bundle on his back, so that it will not hinder the blow." ”

Although I was a little worried, but seeing that the fifth master was nodding, I was originally a little worried that there was not enough firewood, but now the problem has been solved. Moreover, the three guards carried the wood on their backs, and they might be able to resist the sneak attack of the snow masses from behind, which is not a bad thing.

The other three small bundles were also quickly picked up, and I was tired and sweaty, and I saw Tianyu's thin shoulders. I was very worried that she would not have the strength to carry the bundle of wood back.

There was a dude's urging from the edge of the woods, and it was useless to worry. I immediately picked up the larger bundle of firewood, and then helped to carry the bundle on Tianyu's back. But Tianyu's waist was pressed almost flush with the ground. I couldn't move half a step at all, so I had to be replaced by Captain Chen, which made me can't help but worry about Tianyu's safety, I wonder if she can do a good job of defense?

But to my complete surprise, I didn't expect Tianyu to be a great batter, even better than Playboy, as if he could knock snowballs out with his eyes closed.

In fact, it was my mistake in the first place, Tianyu is good at using hidden weapons, and he has practiced a dart stunt. If you want to shoot flies, you will never kill mosquitoes by mistake, she is a good shooter, and it is definitely a piece of cake for her to deal with something like a snowball that is large in size and not very fast.

The way back began, and I bent over and carried firewood like a mountain, like a turtle. Moving forward very slowly.

The fat man saw that my legs were shaking like chaff, so he had to change with me, so he asked me to carry Chen Dong on his back and command the battle by the way.

It dawned on me that I had made one mistake after another. If the arrangement is not done properly, they will no longer be able to do so, and they will bundle huge firewood like a hill. Swap to the fat man's back.

Chen Dong said that the team was moving slowly and strongly urged to go on its own. I couldn't resist him, so I had to support Chen Dong, who was limping. Alertly looking around, he slowly moved forward.

The speed of the team is too slow, so it will face more danger, and I found that the dandy's swing of the stick has obviously slowed down, and the appearance of Tianyu and Zha Wuye's sweating profusely is completely hard support, and it is definitely not a way to go on like this. But I couldn't speed up the march, so I had to replace the overworked Zha Wuye first, and he supported Chen Dong, and I took the lead to protect everyone.

I didn't practice batting at all just now, because I thought I was the member in charge of carrying firewood, so I didn't pay attention to the playboy's explanation. In addition, I didn't have any good sports cells, and I waved two thick branches, and I couldn't help but fall short, but fortunately I was rescued by the playboy next to me.

The cold sweat of the bean ran down the tip of my nose, sliding down continuously, and my eyes were so wide that I didn't seem to blink. However, the kung fu in his hands is good, and he is becoming more and more handy at swinging the stick, and the snow cave is already close at hand.

When I saw that victory was in sight, I felt all over my body, and beckoned everyone to speed up.

I didn't expect this operation to be so smooth and unexpectedly successful, and now as long as you set up a fire in front of the snow cave, everything will be fine.

The plan went smoothly and unexpectedly, and everyone arrived safely in front of the snow cave, but everyone was too tired to speak, and it was completely by relying on an obsession that the body could stand without collapsing.

Now that's the final crucial step left, which is to light a fire.

The teammates unloaded bundles of firewood in front of the snow cave, and then spontaneously formed a half-circle and hit the dough snowballs that were still bouncing up and down the snow.

Making a fire is also a headache and drudgery, and Chen Dong is naturally responsible for lighting the fire because of his limited mobility. However, with his own strength, he could not make the fire as much as possible, so Tianyu and I had to join the ranks of life.

There was knee-high snow on the ground, dead trees and broken branches were covered with a thick layer of frost, and it was almost impossible to make a fire.

The fire couldn't be lit, so I squatted on the ground, sweating coldly.

Suddenly, there was an exclamation, I raised my head suddenly, looked sideways at everyone, and was surprised to find that the right arm of the fifth master was missing, and he didn't even frown, so he immediately picked up the wooden stick that fell on the ground and swung it with his left hand instead. But the fifth master is not left-handed, since he waved the stick again and again, I saw it in my eyes, I was anxious, and hurriedly asked Tianyu to replace him.

Looking at the broken arm of the fifth master, my confidence suddenly dropped, and I even ran out of ideas. I thought to myself: now that there is no way to light a fire, do I have to experience another nightmare? At that time, Fifth Master Cha's arm will automatically recover, and he may be able to think of a way to make a fire.

The battle-hardened Fifth Master saw my thoughts at once, and then said to me: "Xiaowen, next time, maybe I won't be so lucky, but I just have one arm missing." ”

I fully understand the meaning of the words of the fifth master, and the fact that the Western Expedition team was able to carry out the plan smoothly to this point is almost unexpected by everyone. Next time, maybe someone will leave before it's halfway through. Therefore, we must do our best now not to light the flame and not to give up.

But now I am at a loss, and I can't think of any way to raise the fire, and there are no matches left in the matchbox in my hand. My hands were stained with the smell of gunpowder, and I couldn't set the wood on fire, and I was about to vomit blood.

After a while, there was only the last match left in my hand, and the fifth master suddenly reached out to hold my arm, reached out and took something from my neck, handed it to me, and said to me: "This thing is called "fire gall", and it is the treasure that my old man found for me to ward off the disaster. It contains a liquid similar to fire oil, and a single drop can set an entire forest on fire. You can now smash it on the wood and you will be able to raise the fire. ”

I looked at the beads in my hand that were red like fire, the size of chicken eggs, and said in my heart: This is a treasure that can save the life of the fifth master, such a valuable thing, how can you say that you will fall.

I got up and pulled the empty sleeves of the fifth master and said to him: "Fifth brother, since we have this baby, we can do it all over again, and then your arm will be back." ”

Fifth Master Zha stood up from the ground, pulled out the sleeve I was holding with his left hand, and then stared at me with sharp eyes, "Xiaowen, can you guarantee that I won't lose an arm next time?" And this pile of wood and fire, which has been transported so hard, will it be safe and sound here next time?" After speaking, he pointed to the firewood that was piled up into a hill and said to me: "If you take firewood again next time, can you guarantee that no one else will suffer?" Many things, it is not that you can start all over again, you have to learn to know how to give up at a critical moment, and there will be gains if you give up. ”

The questions that go straight to the depths of people's hearts, the thought-provoking realizations, leave me speechless. Because I can't guarantee that I will even wake up from a dream, I think it's a problem. And what the fifth master said is very reasonable, there will be a gift to get!

So I didn't hesitate anymore, but when I was about to make a move, I suddenly heard someone behind me shouting "Be careful", and then the fifth master who was standing next to me pushed me. At the same time that I fell to the side unexpectedly, I saw a snowball the size of a football and flew over the tip of my nose, which frightened me so much that I couldn't help but take a step back, and the "fire gall" in my hand also took off my hand, and the fiery red beads fell to the ground at once.

Sure enough, things did not go very smoothly, the fire gall beads did not fall on the wood pile, but fell on the snow very far away, I was fortunate enough to escape the catastrophe, immediately got up from the snow, ran to the broken fire gall, a strong smell like diesel, directly rushed into my nose, smoked my brain melon kernel pain.

I struck the last match in my hand, but at the last moment, the match was dumb and could not be struck in any way, and I was so anxious that I was sweating profusely and the top of my head was on fire. Moreover, I found out at this time that there would be snow balls attacking me, because the fat man fell to the ground, and the defending troops were missing, and the safety of the Western Expeditionary Team was now in jeopardy, and there was no delay for a minute or a second. But the last straw in my hand fell miserably on the white snow, my legs were weak, and I fell to the ground with my buttocks, and my heart said: It's over.

At this time, Chen Dong, who had been squatting on the ground and fiddling with Chai He, suddenly raised his hand and threw me something. I picked it up from the snow and saw that it was a very delicate tin lighter, so I lit it without saying a word, and then complained to Chen Dong in a hoarse voice: "Why didn't you take out the lighter earlier?"
