Chapter 309: Constant pressure
readx;?“ Brother-in-law, you wait for me......"
Zhang Qingshan, who was observing everywhere, vaguely heard Qin Fang shouting to himself, and when he looked back, it seemed that Qin Fang was running towards him, and he could only wait in place. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Soon, when he saw Zhou Baoyu running over while shouting "Big brother, wait for me to ......", he was a little puzzled: Qin Fang may have come out of guilt, but why did Zhou Baoyu have to follow?
When they were still about ten meters away from Zhang Qingshan, they were already going hand in hand.
At this time, Zhang Qingshan saw clearly that Zhou Baoyu was holding a bundle of torches in his arms, and immediately understood that this must be Zhou Ping and they were afraid that the torches they brought were not enough, so they sent Zhou Baoyu to rush over, and at the same time, they also had the intention of asking Zhou Baoyu to help. After all, in this hostile place, one more person is one more strength.
However, after the two of them arrived at their side, Zhang Qingshan still asked with a straight face: "Why don't you rest well in the camp and prepare for tomorrow's journey, what are you going to do with me?"
"Brother-in-law, I know I'm wrong, shall we go back?"
Zhang Qingshan glanced at her and didn't answer, but Qin Fang continued: "Brother-in-law, even if you want to find fish, you don't have to go so far, just look around the camp." ”
"I have my intentions. After speaking, Zhang Qingshan looked at Zhou Baoyu. Zhou Baoyu replied simply: "Big brother, I followed you on the third day of the revolution, I will go wherever you go, don't want to leave me alone." ”
After speaking, seeing that Zhang Qingshan's face was a little gentler, Zhou Baoyu boldly asked, "Big brother, what are you going to do here?"
"I was thinking that if you need bait for fishing, it's better to use live bait, so I'm going to look around and see if I can dig up some earthworms or other little bugs in other dry spots. ”
Upon hearing this, Qin Fang and Zhou Baoyu were obviously relieved: since they were just looking for a dry place in the surrounding area, instead of traveling far alone, the danger factor was much lower.
Zhou Baoyu hurriedly took out a bundle of rope from the big backpack behind him and handed it to Zhang Qingshan.
After Zhang Qingshan took it, he said, "You guys follow closely", and then led the team to set off.
However, Qin Fang didn't know what this rope was for, and asked Zhou Baoyu in a low voice. After listening to the answer given by Zhou Baoyu, she glanced at Zhou Baoyu appreciatively: "I didn't expect that you are usually careless, and this head melon occasionally has a bright moment." ”
"What do you mean by being careless? I've always been very careful, but you don't usually notice it. ”
"Yes?"
"Didn't you?"
Gotcha! The two little ones are arguing again.
Zhang Qingshan felt that the two of them talking was not only conducive to making himself feel presence, but also judged that they were not in danger, so he did not stop them.
When it was dark, there was fog and visibility was very poor. As a last resort, Zhang Qingshan not only lit the torches, but also reminded them to fight less and pay more attention to their feet. Finally, after thinking about it, I simply stretched the rope out of the way and let them hold on to the rope so that there would be no big accident.
Under the leadership of Zhang Qingshan, the three of them deliberately circled around the camp about two meters, and as a result, the torches were lit with a fourth one, but nothing was found.
Zhang Qingshan was a little unwilling, but it was not good to leave them at this time, or let them go back alone, thought about it, and said to them: "There are still three torches, enough for us to go to a distant place to find a photo, if you two are worried, I will send you two back first." ”
"No!" After the two replied in unison, Qin Fang took the lead and said, "Brother-in-law, you just lead the way, I will definitely follow." ”
"Me too. ”
"Well, let's look a little further, and if the fifth torch isn't found yet, we'll be back. ”
Immediately, the three of them walked directly to the northwest...... There is also a purpose for this choice: if you don't have time to get back to camp, or if you get lost. Then, this northwest is also the direction after Zhou Ping's departure at dawn, and there is a great chance for everyone to meet.
However, God played a little joke with them that made people cry and laugh.
When Zhang Qingshan finished solemnly, he set off again, only walking forward for about ten meters, but suddenly found that there was a gray-black protrusion by a puddle two or three meters in front of him. When I stepped forward, I saw that it was a dead bird. The most surprising thing was that this big rotten bird was densely covered with maggots - this is the best bait for fishing.
Zhang Qingshan showed his previous dullness and depression, and laughed out loud. Zhou Baoyu also laughed, but Qin Fang didn't know what to think, laughed and laughed, and actually cried, Zhou Baoyu felt more and more that this woman was a little inexplicably neurotic.
But Zhang Qingshan seemed to understand something: Qin Fang had been forcing herself to catch fish to eat, and in the end, she couldn't stand her persecution and ventured into this area at night, which definitely caused huge psychological pressure on Qin Fang and made her extremely self-blaming. And finding it all the way, and not finding anything, must have made Qin Fang blame herself more and more, which can be seen from the fact that she became less and less along the way, and finally became silent. Now, the maggots used for fishing have been discovered, and for Qin Fang, it is no longer a question of whether she can eat fish, but it has risen to the height of making her feel less guilty.
Zhang Qingshan naturally didn't say these thoughts, but bent down to catch the rotten big bird ashore, and said to them with a smile: "Baoyu, you find something and pack more insect repellent, if we want to fish and eat again in the future, we have to rely on it." Xiaofang, you come to light the torch. I'm going to smoke a cigarette. ”
"No!" Qin Fang took the torch first, turned around and handed it to Zhou Baoyu: "You come to the torch, I'll load these." ”
As she spoke, she took out an iron box that was probably used to hold needles and was the size of a palm, and squatted down to put maggots into the iron box one by one without being dirty or smelly, and said with a smile: "This is what I secretly prepared before, I originally thought that it would be used to hold earthworms, but I didn't expect that the earthworms were not loaded, but now they are used to hold maggots." ”
After Zhang Qingshan went to the water's edge to wash his hands, he lit a cigarette and smoked it slowly, and a smile gradually appeared on his face: this was not only a release of pressure, but more importantly, he felt that happiness and excitement from Qin Fang and Zhou Baoyu, and even with him, he felt that the burden on his body was a lot easier.
Because even this last thing was there, the three of them were more confident, and they hurried back in a good mood.
Then, I couldn't wait, and even shouted a little to express my happiness and anticipation to load the bait on the hook, which attracted Zhou Ping, who was chatting and worrying, to come and see.
What makes people depressed, or incomprehensible, is that the six of them squatted by the puddle and chatted for half an hour, but there was still no movement in the fishing line. Later, Zhou Ping thought that everyone was chatting so close to the puddle, and he was afraid that he would frighten the fish and make the fish dare not eat the bait. It is advisable to leave one person to take turns guarding here, while the rest go to sleep, to preserve the spirit and regain strength for tomorrow's journey.
Maybe it's because everyone has great expectations for the fish, and everyone seems a little excited. Lying on the ground, they chatted for more than an hour before they fell asleep. Before going to bed, Zhang Qingshan also deliberately glanced at Zhou Baoyu and Qin Fang, who were squatting by the puddle - they had to guard, but they were afraid of the dark, so in order to take care of their fear of the dark, they were specially grouped together. Then, with the thought of "the charm of the fish is so great, it can actually make them silently guard without fighting", and gradually fell asleep.
I don't know how long I slept, but I felt someone moving in a daze, and Zhang Qingshan woke up. When I opened my eyes, I saw that Lao Zhou was cautiously trying to stand up. Zhang Qingshan hurriedly got up and asked in a low voice: "Old Zhou, what are you going to do here?"
"I don't worry about those two little ones, go and see. ”
Zhang Qingshan understood that Zhou Ping said that he was going to have a look, but in fact, he was going to change the guard. immediately grabbed Zhou Ping: "Old Zhou, you have worked hard enough in the past few days, or I will go, you continue to rest." ”
"No matter how tired I am, I can't compare to you, or ......"
"Okay, that's it. After speaking, Zhang Qingshan bent down and grabbed the Tibetan clothes that fell on the ground, put them on his body, and walked quickly in the direction of fishing.
Zhou Ping had to sigh, looked at Zhang Qingshan respectfully, and fell asleep again.
After Zhang Qingshan walked a few steps, he took out his pocket watch and looked at it by the moonlight, and it was only 1:32 in the morning.
He rubbed his hands, felt the heat on his hands, rubbed his face again, stretched his waist, felt a little more comfortable on his body, and then continued to walk forward quickly.
Originally, he was walking briskly, but from a distance, he saw Zhou Baoyu and Qin Fang sitting shoulder to shoulder by the puddle, silent. Zhang Qingshan felt that they should both be asleep, so he lowered his footsteps and walked over quietly.
When they approached two or three meters behind the two, they heard Qin Fang almost muttering to himself: "Baoyu, I'm sleepy, it's time for you to get up and guard...... Remember, this fish has to be pulled up by me so that I can explain it to my brother-in-law...... If you dare to be disobedient, I won't give you candy in the future...... Baoyu!
Zhou Baoyu, who was sleeping in a daze, vaguely seemed to answer, and Qin Fang was probably very sleepy, and after screaming twice, there was no follow-up.
These two snacks, for the sake of a fish, actually insisted so tenaciously and competed. Zhang Qingshan shook his head and smiled bitterly, and coughed lightly twice, "Ahem!cough!", which woke up the two of them at once.
The two quickly stood up, and when they saw that it was Zhang Qingshan, they breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
"Brother-in-law, why are you here?"
"Well, you two don't have to say anything, now, right now, go over there and go to sleep at once. ”
"But ......"
"It's an order!"
"Yes!"
After Zhou Baoyu saluted Zhang Qingshan, he walked away quickly. Qin Fang said a little abrasively, "Brother-in-law, you must wake me up after catching a fish", and waited for Zhang Qingshan to nod helplessly, and then she pulled out her legs to chase Zhou Baoyu.
Zhang Qingshan sat down, looked at the three fishing rods, and after pondering for a while, he simply replaced the bait on the fishing rods...... Finally, perhaps feeling a little cold, he put on his clothes and put them on.
Sitting on the ground, smoking a cigarette, looking at the bright moon in the sky, imagining that Xiang Xueqin must be asleep at this moment, I don't know if she dreamed of herself in her dreams......
