6. Find a way to treat yourself!
Although the foot of the mountain can already be seen from a distance, by the time the two of them really arrived at their destination, the time had already reached three o'clock in the afternoon. The main reason is that the mountains here are all undeveloped, there are no roads at all, and there is a cliff in the middle, so I have to go around a big circle.
This walk, when he saw the entrance of the village, Hao Dong directly collapsed on the ground and couldn't get up anymore, it was this trip that made him deeply understand why there is a saying that it is easy to go up the mountain and difficult to go down. Compared to running down from the top of the mountain, it is definitely much easier to go up from the bottom of the mountain!
Don't look at the step by step up the mountain is very laborious, but the center of gravity of the person is relatively easy to grasp, and it is not easy to have problems. If you go down the mountain, especially when your physical strength is very low, you will be frightened when you step out step by step, and you will be afraid that you will be unable to step on the next step and roll down directly.
Fortunately, Hao Dong didn't roll down the mountain, but it was almost there. Their supplies are insufficient, high-intensity activities do not have corresponding energy supplements, and the whole body is like being scooped up in water.
Ergou looked at him like that, and felt that even if his face was so dark that he could compare with the ash at the bottom of the pot, this kid would probably not be able to bird him, and observed the distance between the entrance of the village and this end, and could only helplessly kick the guy who was paralyzed on the ground like a dead dog: "I'll go to the village first, be careful yourself, if someone comes closer, you have to go to the village anyway, you know?" ”
Hao Dong felt that he had no strength to answer at this moment, so he finally moved his head and agreed, but as soon as the second dog ran away, he fell asleep directly.
This sleep was very restless, the various figures in my head dangled, and although there was no clear theme in the dream, the tension was very distinct. It's like his own experience, being chased, running away, resisting, but he can't see the last scene clearly, because he woke up in the violent shaking.
When he woke up, he found himself lying on a simple stretcher, and he couldn't see the situation behind his feet, but when he looked up, he could see that he was carrying him near his head, wearing brightly colored local clothes, especially the bright red pheasant feathers on his hat, and his swarthy face was very eye-catching.
Hao Dong looked at him, he also looked at Hao Dong, and suddenly the young man screamed, as if he had just come back to his senses and woke up the person he was carrying.
Hearing the scream, Ergou finally appeared in Hao Dong's field of vision, first said something to the two people carrying Hao Dong in the local dialect, and then the stretcher was put down on the spot, and Ergou also squatted down: "Hao Ye, you can be considered awake!" Thanks to you waking up early, otherwise you will wake up again after we go out for a decade or two, even if these two big brothers run away in vain, we will have to pay for labor and mental damage! ”
Hao Dong didn't care about the poverty of the two dogs, so he wanted to struggle to sit up, but his body was only half raised, his head was dizzy, his eyes were white, and he lay flat again.
Seeing him like this, Ergou didn't have any thoughts about him, and carried Hao Dong back to the village with the two villagers. Fortunately, they had just left the village, and they returned to the original stone house after almost turning a corner.
Leaving Hao Dong behind, the two villagers fought with Ergou for a while before leaving, but they didn't see Ergou take money to them, just looking at the expressions of the two people, Hao Dong felt his heart sank. It's an instinct that only comes when faced with hostility, and the villagers here are afraid that outsiders are not very welcome.
Ergou has obviously been very vigilant, seeing that the two people are gone, he ran outside the house for a turn, and then came back to explain to Hao Dong.
It turned out that Hao Dong had slept for a full day this night, and no matter how much he shouted in the middle, he couldn't wake up. Not to mention the hospital in this village, there is not even a serious clinic, and the villagers all go up to the mountain to get herbal medicine for minor disasters and diseases. They hadn't seen Hao Dong's sleeping sickness before, and they even tried the method of pouring cold water in the end, but they still didn't wake up, and finally the second dog was anxious, so they decided to find a way to get him to the county seat outside the mountains to find a way.
"It's a good thing that you can't wake up no matter how much you pour cold water, if you go down with a basin of water, you will wake up, I guess a few old guys here will definitely find a way to get you into their house, to see what caused your coma."
When Ergou said these words to Hao Dong, Hao Dong had already stuffed himself with a mouth full of food. He hadn't eaten anything the day before, and then he had slept for a full day, and now he understood why he couldn't even sit up just now, and the hungry man had already been weak in his limbs.
Although the food in this place is really a little unsaved, but for the hungry people it is still a life-saving thing, Hao Dong stuffed a mouthful of barbecue meat that was particularly difficult to chew, choked and stretched his neck, while still slurring the words of the second dog: "Do you make them arrogant, suspicious, oh?" ”
Ergou saw him like that and his hands were itchy and wanted to slap him on the back of the head, thinking that people were still weak and sick at this time, so he could only endure it: "I don't know exactly what the situation is, but don't be careless, just guess the worst situation." ”
"The worst case," Hao Dong finally swallowed the meat in his mouth, threw away the meat and bones in his hand, and sighed, "It's bad enough now." It's a good wild boar, right? can make this virtue. I'm afraid that if we stay here, we don't have to think about anything else, and we will get food poisoning first. ”
The people take food as the sky, even if Hao Dong doesn't say it, Ergou has already felt a little unbearable since he arrived here yesterday. The food in Miao Village is not delicious, and there are even a lot of real delicacies, but obviously this village is not in the ranks of making good food, and the food here can barely fill people's stomachs, and the taste is indescribable and difficult to swallow.
Hao Dong made a good dish by himself, and it was naturally even more uncomfortable to eat these, and the two completely forgot about the previous topic and immediately began to discuss important livelihood issues.
Ergou: "It's unpalatable, but the conditions here, that's the only way." ”
Hao Dong: "Nonsense! No matter how bad the conditions are, things can be made delicious. Just that pork, it's purely a matter of craftsmanship! For example, I can taste that it actually has a taste similar to sand tea sauce, and there is definitely no shortage of chili peppers and salt here, and there should also be oil. With these, no matter how well the wild boar meat is handled, even a simple meat skewer can make you want to swallow it with your tongue. ”
Hearing Hao Dong's words, Ergou's eyes were straight, he believed in Hao Dong's craftsmanship, if the other party said that he could make a delicious dish that made him want to swallow his tongue, then he would definitely be able to make it. So by this moment his mind had turned away, and he was wondering how to get the meat and spices out of the hands of the villagers, and there was also oil.
The oil here is rapeseed oil grown and rolled by the villagers themselves, and he has seen it raw, and the smell is fragrant. It's a pity that the yield is not high, that is, each family gets a little bit of their own food, and it is estimated that it is not easy to get it.
To be honest, it is also inconvenient to communicate with the outside world, although there is a highway, but this place is too remote, and it may not be possible to come to a car with goods for a month. The only car in the village is a light container truck bought by all the villagers, and every time there is a big market in the nearest town, the whole village will go out to drive it once, and the gasoline is usually sealed in the warehouse of the village chief's house, and even he tried to persuade them to drive a trip to send him and Hao Dong out.
So this small village is basically a self-sufficiency model, only some more modern supplies such as toothpaste and the like will go out to buy, and basically concentrate on the day when everyone goes out to buy together, and the insufficient amount is then packed by the village chief's brother-in-law to pack a truck back, put it in his small shop and sell it slowly, and other similar things are produced by the village itself.
In this kind of place, even if you promise him a lot of money, people may not sell you this account. Ergou thought about it for a while, rummaged through his pockets for a while, and finally decided that he had to go to the village chief's uncle to have a look. That person knows how to get things and sell them slowly in the village, and his brain should at least be more active than others, so that is to say, it is possible to be accommodating.
After thinking about it, he went through the list of things he needed with Hao Dong again, and Ergou asked Hao Dong to rest in the house for a while. Although there are no windows on the windows and no door panels on the doors, this stone house is a good day today, and there will be no problem lying down like this.
Hao Dong was really tired, but he was still young, and he didn't rest for long, and the second dog hadn't come back yet, but he couldn't stay any longer, so he got up and walked out of the house to see.
