Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Head Breaks and Bleeds
Lantern Xiao turned his head to see me, frowned and looked at me, "Are you okay kid?" Seeing that I shook my head, Lantern Xiao suddenly became energetic, "Zhuo Ran, and you, let me tell you, I was kicked off the tree by Wenmo to save you!" You've got to get a treat when you turn around! Where to go I order! ”
I smiled and made an OK gesture at him, and it took a while for Lantern Xiao's indignant mood to calm down.
We rested for a while, and then we continued down the hill to the valley ahead. Along the way, we saw the main trunks of the ghost vines the size of buckets, and they were all hanging weakly on the trees on the ground at this time, or fell to the ground, and I believe that soon they will completely dry up and decay, and become nourishment for other trees.
I can't help but wonder if we are doing a good thing for this jungle, even if it is for the trees!
After getting out of danger, my tight strings also loosened, I clearly felt that I was not in good shape, my physical strength was seriously overdrawn, and I almost used all my strength with every step I took, but I did not want to stop. I just want to get out of this jungle as soon as possible. As we get closer to the center of the valley, the sound of rushing water begins to become clearer and clearer.
I knew we were almost at the edge of this jungle, and I couldn't wait to pick up my pace, I had never wanted to see a river so much, and I had never been so afraid of the lush, cascading greens.
My mind wandered, I didn't notice what was happening under my feet, and I stumbled on the roots of the tree, and my mind was a little dazed due to physical exhaustion. So I didn't even have time to make a countermeasure, so I rolled down.
I don't know how many hits I had, I don't remember whether it hurt or not, I just felt the world spinning, and when I came to my senses, I heard a clear sound of water right next to me, and I tried to stand up and look, and I found a wide river rushing past me.
At this time, the second uncle and Lantern Festival also arrived and stepped forward to help me up, "How is it?" You okay? ”
I shook my head weakly, and just as I was about to speak, I suddenly felt something strange itching on my forehead, as if something was running down. As soon as I reached out and touched it, I felt a little wet, and I took my hand down to see that it was full of blood!
"Holy! What is the situation! "I reached out and touched my forehead a few times, and it was bloody, and it looked very horrible.
Anado stepped forward and stopped me, "Hey! Don't touch it, your hands are not clean, beware of infection! With that, Anado led me to the edge of the river and washed the blood from my face. But the blood kept pouring down my head, and if I continued like this, I was a little worried that I would die from excessive blood loss!
Anador rummaged through his backpack, but only found some commonly used internal medicines and a few band-aids, "Aren't the people of this Yuan family even ready for first-aid bandages?" ”
"Forget it," I waved my hand, "Most of the Yuan family's first-aid medicines should be in the team doctor's place." ”
In fact, a few of us were prepared at the beginning, but they were all put in Anado's backpack, but unfortunately her backpack was lost when she passed through the underground river, which is a loss of eating "all eggs in one basket"!
At this time, the second uncle next to him hesitated for a moment and said, "Actually, I also prepared it, but I ran out." As he spoke, the second uncle pulled up his trouser leg, and I saw a long bandage wrapped around his calf, and there were blood stains on it.
I hurriedly asked, "Second uncle, what's wrong with you?" ”
The second uncle sighed, "Hi! People are old and their hands and feet are not flexible, before I met you, when there was a section of the mountain, one did not grasp steadily, rolled down, the leg rubbed on the stone, rubbed off a piece of meat, but lost weight! As he spoke, the second uncle looked at me, "Why don't I give you a piece of it?" ”
I looked at the bandage on the second uncle's leg not only had a trace of red blood, but also some dirt on the rubbing, red and black mixed together, I would rather die of blood loss than wrap this bandage around my head, and waved my hand again and again, "You spare me, second uncle, I still continue to bleed, I feel that I can still hold on." Isn't there also a bloodletting therapy in traditional Chinese medicine! ”
The second uncle looked at me helplessly, "Our family is also a few generations of practicing medicine, how can you say such layman's words, Chinese medicine bloodletting therapy, which is to discharge evil blood and remove evil heat, the main manifestation is excessive body yang!" With your current virtue, what else is too much body yang, eating ginseng can't make up for a while and a half, and you are still bleeding, did you knock your brain just now! Saying that, the second uncle was about to untie the bandages on his legs, "When is it, you are still blind, you are a cleanliness addict!" If you don't just bleed, you'll really hang up! ”
I waved my hand again and again, "Second uncle, don't!" ”
At this time, Anaduo stepped forward and slapped away the second uncle's hand that was unbandaging, "You don't have bad ideas!" ”
The second uncle got up in surprise and looked at Anado, and was stunned for a while. Anaduo glanced at the second uncle, "Your used dirty bandage, if you use it for Xiao Ran, it will be easy to cross-infect, and it will be even more troublesome when the time comes, so don't make a mess!" ”
The second uncle opened his mouth, but he didn't speak, and after a while, he said, "Then what do you say?" ”
Anaduo took out a handkerchief from his pocket, it was embroidered in the style of a minority person, it was very beautiful, "Give you this, although it is not suitable, but it is much stronger than your second uncle's bandage!" You press it hard against the wound! ”
I reached out a little and took it, looked at Anado, and then looked at the second uncle, and smiled secretly in my heart, this is really one thing to one thing! Seeing that I didn't move, Anador took back the handkerchief in my hand, "What are you smiling at!" As he spoke, he pressed the handkerchief to my head, "Hold it!" Anado's hand strength is not small, I shrank my neck when this press hurts, but I still hurriedly followed what she said, pressed the handkerchief on the top of my head with my handkerchief, and then smiled at Anado, "Thank you, thank you, second aunt!" ”
Hearing me say this, two crimson flowers quickly flew on Anado's face, "You, what are you talking nonsense!" ”
The second uncle jumped up next to him, "Hey! You little bastard! I'll let you talk nonsense! "Raise your foot and kick it. I quickly ducked to the side.
I avoided the second uncle and came to the side of Lantern Xiao, who smiled ambiguously at me, "Your family is happy!" ”
I looked back at the second uncle, "I didn't expect the second uncle's old tree to sprout, hehe!" ”
Lantern Xiao pointed to my head, "Are you okay?" And blood oozing out! I shook my head, "It's okay, I can't die!" I'm just so tired! So saying, I sat down by the river.
Lantern Xiao lit a cigarette and squatted down next to me, "Hey, Zhuo Ran, what do you say this has to do with our previous experience?" Could there be any connection between them? ”
I thought about it and nodded, "Relationship, I think there must be, and judging from the performance of the second uncle after the Shan Huan Ancient Kingdom, the relationship must be extraordinary!" ”
"That's right!" Lantern Xiao then asked: "Have you asked your second uncle why he didn't say goodbye when he was in the underground royal tomb of the ancient kingdom of Shan Huan?" ”
I smiled wryly and shook my head, "I haven't had time yet, there's so much to ask him!" The thought of these things made my head big, and I didn't want to dwell on them anymore, so I asked, "Hey, where's the boss?" ”
Lantern Xiao spat out a cigarette, and then pointed to the river not far ahead, "Wow! There's that! ”
Looking at Wen Mo's lonely back, I couldn't help but sigh, "This is also a big mystery to walk!" ”
Lantern Xiao smiled and nodded while smoking a cigarette.
At this time, the sky gradually darkened, I turned my head to look through the valley to look at the western sky, the remnant sun was like blood, the sunset was like fire, and the thick orange yellow sprinkled from the sky to the earth, making the lush green and the silver river surface covered with a layer of golden light, making the whole valley look like a magnificent oil painting.
At this time, the second uncle walked over, "This sunset is good, then let's camp here tonight!" ”
I thought that the second uncle chose to camp here because of the scenery here, "Your old man still has this poetic feeling!" ”
The second uncle glared at me, "What kind of poetry, the morning glow doesn't go out, the sunset travels thousands of miles, haven't you heard this sentence?!" Seeing that I was stunned for a moment, the second uncle continued: "Such a sunset means that the weather is very good from tonight to tomorrow!" If we want to camp in the valley, the weather is especially important, once there is rain, all the rainwater on both sides of the valley will collect it, and then the river will swell, and we will be washed away without even having a chance to run. ”
I nodded, "I see!" Alright, let's get ready to set up camp. ”
"But," Anador on the side seemed to have something to say, so I opened my mouth and asked: "Second ......" As soon as I turned my head and saw the murderous gaze of my second uncle, I quickly swallowed the word "aunt" in my mouth again, "Sister, are you sometimes?" ”
Anador said, "I just looked at it, and we have almost no food, do you still have it?" ”
A few of us all shook our heads to say we didn't, and Anador sighed, "What can I do?" ”
Lantern Xiao smiled, "It's okay, I'll go to the forest to hunt two pheasants, when we came here just now, there were several frightening flights along the way, and it's not hard to find." ”
I just wanted to nod in agreement, when Wen Mo, who had been standing by the river, suddenly said, "There's something in the river?" ”
We hurried to look over the river, and sure enough, we saw something floating on the surface of the river near the river's edge. Lantern Xiao went into the water and scooped that thing up. When we took a closer look, it turned out to be a bag of instant noodles.
