Chapter 113: Escape
Qianqian . , the fastest update of the latest chapter of the concubine!
The clothes on her body were wrinkled, stained with mud and water and hooked by branches, she couldn't see the original appearance, the long-sleeved Luo skirt, walking in the mountains was particularly difficult, she pursed her lips and reached out to tear the skirt directly, and the cloth torn off was wrapped around the cuffs, and the wide sleeves were directly wound into narrow sleeves.
The clothes were simply tidied up, and it was a lot easier to walk again, the sun would be in the sky, and it was estimated that the time should be noon, she reached out and touched her stomach, only to feel unspeakably deflated. There was nothing to eat except for trees and grass, and she would be hungry with her chest sticking to her back.
It was quiet all around, she didn't know where she was now, and she didn't know when she would be able to get out, so she only walked forward with her instincts.
When the sun was about to set, she finally collapsed to the ground tired, leaning against the trunk of the tree behind her, and wanted to rest with her eyes closed.
As soon as she closed her eyes, she noticed something drop on her face, she thought it was the water droplets on the leaves and didn't think much about it, she just stretched out her hand and wiped it indiscriminately, and her fingers touched the drop of liquid on her face, which had a sticky feeling.
She was stunned, opened her eyes and looked at her fingers, put the liquid on the tip of her tongue and licked it, and her eyes lit up.
Sweet!
When she looked up again, she saw that there was a honeycomb directly above the trunk of the tree she was leaning on, and I don't know if it was raining, but there were no bees around the honeycomb.
Sure enough, it is the road of endless heaven, such a large honeycomb, the honey in it is enough for her to eat for a few days. This swept away her previous depression, found a long branch, hid behind the trunk and stabbed the honeycomb directly.
The honeycomb shook when it landed, and a few bees flew out of it, and circled around the honeycomb a few times, Bai Susu held a branch in her hand and waved it a few times to drive the bees away, and then she quickly ran over to pick up the honeycomb and ran.
After running a long distance, I sat down and took a few breaths, and then I looked down at the honeycomb in my arms and couldn't help but smile.
Wild honey is sweet, although it is not as hungry as the food tube, it is also something that can be eaten in the end, and after eating some of it, I gradually have a little strength in my body, and my hands and feet are not as weak as before. Her stomach was still growling, but she didn't dare to be greedy, and she didn't know how long she would stay in this forest, and this bit of honey was something she could keep her alive, so she tried to eat it for as long as possible.
The sky will gradually get dark, and the temperature in the forest will suddenly drop at night, and she will only have a thin dress on her body, and it will definitely be cold in the night, no, she must find a place to hide as soon as possible.
It may be that God thinks she is a little pitiful, and really let her find a cave before nightfall.
The cave was not large, and there was some grass in it, and she had just congratulated herself on her luck when she heard a heavy sound. The cave is not big, and she can see the bottom at a glance, this sound is sudden, she can't help but be startled, and listen carefully and there is no sound.
After looking around to make sure that no one else was here, she was just relieved when suddenly the same voice sounded again, this time she confirmed that it was not her hallucination, that there was really a sound in the cave.
Just as she was nervous, a large rock in front of her suddenly moved, and then the stone stood up.
She chuckled inwardly, and when she saw clearly what was standing up, her legs weakened in fright.
Bear!
I stumbled into a bear's den!
The black bear turned around and locked his gaze on her face, staring at her as if he were already staring at his prey.
She leaned against the cave wall and moved little by little, and the black bear moved with her, and so little by little she moved to the mouth of the cave, she looked at the black bear, and then at the dark night outside, took a deep breath, and began to run.
The sound of hunting behind her was accompanied by the barking of the bear, no matter how fast she ran, she couldn't match the speed of the bear behind her, and she was about to be caught up, Xu was too anxious to be a little anxious, she looked down at the honeycomb that was hanging on her waist, and after a slight hesitation, she tore it off and threw it behind her.
The honeycomb smashed on the bear and the bee pulp that lay down flowed into the bear's mouth, and it suddenly screamed, stopped its pursuit, and lowered its head and began to lick the honeycomb.
She breathed a deep sigh of relief, she really didn't know if she was lucky or unlucky, and seeing that the bear was focused on the honey, she quietly moved back little by little, and only when she was far enough away did she turn around and start running.
This night she passed by the bear's den, and she didn't dare to look for any more caves, so she just found a random tree and fell asleep under it.
The night went on like this, and fortunately nothing else happened.
By the next day, the question that plagued her was still how to get out of here and how not to starve to death.
The former is not so easy to say, but the latter is already a very urgent matter, and there is no other way to be hungry but to find edible wild vegetables and fruits, and always have to eat something to maintain strength.
In the afternoon she found a wild fruit tree, and she didn't know what it was, and she picked the green fruit and took a bite, and her sore teeth were about to fall out, but it was better to have something to eat than nothing, and she closed her eyes and stuffed a few of them, and then picked some and stuffed them into her arms, ready to eat a few more if she was very hungry later.
Staying in the woods, she had no idea of the hours, years, months, only that the sun rose and set as a day passed, and so on thirty times passed.
She adapted to life in the mountains, and she survived. A stumbling encounter with a corpse that fell to the bottom of the mountain, thinking about it for some years, the corpse has turned into a pile of bones. But what was left next to the white bones made her very excited for a while, a dagger, a fire fold. What made her happiest was that the dagger was extremely sharp, and the fire breaker was still easy to use. Having fire means that she can make some food, which is undoubtedly good news for her who is hungry and cold.
"I don't know who you are and why you're here, so I'll take your things and bury you." She has been here alone for a long time now, and she has not opened her mouth for a long time, and her voice is a little strange when she speaks.
I buried the bones and made a simple grave bag, and I didn't know who this person's surname was, so I picked up a few stones at random and piled them in front of the grave bag. Standing in front of the grave, she suddenly felt a little sad about the death of a rabbit and a fox, and she didn't know how long she could last, whether she would soon become a white bone, and whether someone would come and bury her many years later.
I didn't dare to think about such a thing, and the more I thought about it, the more desperate I felt, this forest had been walking for a full month, but I didn't know if it was surprisingly big or she didn't move at all, as if there was no end to it.
"I must go out." She lowered her eyes and whispered, put the dagger away, and turned to walk away.
Walking under the tree that had been marked before, and lifting the weeds covering the ground, she pursed her lips and smiled, "You can open meat tonight." ”
In the face of adversity, people always arouse their hidden instincts, just like when she wakes up in a daze to when she can catch a hare neatly, simply clean it up and set it up on a fire, this series of actions is skillful and even she herself is surprised.
After a full meal, she wrapped the remaining rabbit meat in big leaves and carried it with her, and she did not delay and continued to walk. Although the future is unknown, she is finally not as uneasy as before, and she believes that she will not die here and will definitely find a way out.
Just like that, I walked around and listened again, and the weather became hotter and hotter with her pace, from cold at night to stuffy and breathless at night. She guessed that it was about the height of summer.
After the summer, into the autumn, counting the days in this forest has been in this forest for more than half a year, in the blink of an eye day by day cold, if you can't find the way before entering the winter, then she is afraid that she will really freeze to death here.
The colder it gets, the more irritable she feels, and the patience she has cultivated during this time disappears as the chill grows day by day.
"God, do you really want to freeze me to death?" Stuffing the last piece of chicken into her mouth, she silently touched the oil on the side of her mouth, got up and looked at the dark sky and said helplessly.
When the weather is cold, there are fewer and fewer hares and pheasants, and this chicken leg is still hunted by her three days ago, and it is only now that it is all eaten.
The next time she wanted to catch a pheasant, she didn't know when, she didn't dare to delay, and continued to walk, and this walk was another three days.
In the past three days, she has completely run out of food, and the wild fruits she found on the road have also been eaten, and just when she wants to give up, she finally sees the road ahead.
It was a very long and wide road, and there was a caravan on the road, with a few horsemen in front of them, followed by horse-drawn carriages, pulling slow goods, and it looked like a caravan.
She couldn't express the ecstasy in her heart at the moment, she had finally seen the living people after staying here for so long, she looked at these people as if she saw hope, and she didn't care about anything else, and rushed towards them.
In the woods, most of the shoes have been worn for a long time, and at this moment she is wearing straw sandals that she has knitted, and she has exposed her two toes, and the snow has fallen in the sky, and there is a cold chill on the neck of the person, but this time she seems to be completely unconscious, only staring at the car in front of her, and desperately running over there.
Just as she was about to get closer, the whip that fell in the air made a sound, and then a hot pain fell on her body, and she lowered her head and a red mark was whipped on her arm, and the man on the horse looked condescendingly with disdain and disgust, "Where did Hanako come from, don't you want to live?" ”
She paused, stopped to cover the hot and painful wound, watched the man slowly lower his head for a long time, and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm sorry, I don't know if I can bother you to take me for a ride." ”
She is hungry now, cold, she can't hold on for long, if she misses this gang, she doesn't know if she can meet another gang, she doesn't want to gamble, she just wants to seize this hard-won vitality.
"Hurry up, go quickly, don't look at whose carriage and horses dare to stop, and be careful of my whip if you don't go." The man waved his hand, clearly not wanting to say anything more to her.
