The wound was not yet healed, and the old ranger put down his backpack, took out a small leather bag from it, pulled the cork, and took a sip in his mouth. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info vaguely recited something similar to a spell, and then sprayed it violently on Zhao Mai's body, taking one bite on the front and another bite on the back.

The spray has a mint-like flavor that doesn't annoy you. Even by swiping and guessing, I finally figured out what it was for. There are many mosquitoes in the woods at night, and although bites may not be fatal, it is always painful and itchy, and sometimes you will get sick from it. The rangers in the forest have a variety of means to deal with this situation, and insect repellent is the most convenient one.

Neither man carried a tent, so the Chimera's skin was used as a canvas. With the help of horizontal branches between the two trees, and then pressed to one side with a heavy backpack, a simple canopy was completed. A small fire was raised, the ground was first roasted with fire, and then a layer of leaves that Zhao Mai had never seen before, and this was where they rested at night.

Dinner is still roast pork, no salt and no seasoning. Karl ate very carefully, took a dagger to pick off the edges and corners of the meat, and then roasted the bones in the fire, and then used them to grind his teeth when they were crispy. It may just be Carl's quirk, but it could also be a Ranger custom. Since you accept the protection of the other party, you must follow the host and follow the customs. Zhao Mai also did the same, gnawing his bones as if he had been robbed by a colony of termites.

The forest soon became pitch black, and as long as it was more than twenty feet from the fire, the sight was not as sharp as the sense of touch. Darkness does not mean tranquility, and all kinds of insects around are mixed with the sound of wind blowing leaves, and there is no pause for a moment. Zhao Mai was nervous in his heart, and several times he felt that there were footsteps approaching, and he seemed to see a pair of green beast eyes. But the old god Karl was there, and he looked leisurely, so he could only force his fear and make a confident expression.

The old man saw his pretense of composure and smiled at him, "Don't worry, it's safe here. Seeing that "Mike" looked uncertain, the ranger pointed to the thick "sea of words" and signaled that he should learn the language as soon as possible.

Zhao Mai also thinks so. By the light of the fire, he began to read and study as best he could. Because he chose to rest early, Carl was not very sleepy, so he sat side by side with Zhao Mai, pointed to the words in the book and read aloud, and then used words to form sentences, so that he could learn the most basic sentence structure and grammar first.

Using this method of communication, he assigned Zhao Mai a task: when reading a book, he threw in a little branch every once in a while to keep the bonfire burning. And before you get ready for bed, clean the branches and leaves around the fire again to avoid causing a fire.

After saying that, he put on his cloak, closed his eyes and fell asleep. Zhao Mai looked at it for a while, and always felt that he slept very lightly, and he looked like he could wake up with a little wind and grass. When I was a child, I went back to my hometown, and the guard dog at home was like this. The old man said that this is called alert light sleep, and the effect of rest is not as good as deep sleep, but it can save his life at a critical moment.

It is said that Zhang Fei in the Three Kingdoms period was a light sleep when he opened his eyes, and he drank too much on the night he was beheaded, but he fell into a deep sleep and lost his alertness before the thieves succeeded.

Zhao Mai didn't want to disturb him, so he closed his mouth and read, and even the action of adding firewood every once in a while became cautious. It was pitch black, and the time displayed on the phone was thirty times slower, making it impossible to use as a clock. However, with his biological clock, he estimated that it should have been past nine o'clock in the evening.

Zhao Mai is a nocturnal creature who usually sleeps during the day. As a result, at the end of the day, in addition to traversing, working, and running in the forest, it is to keep learning and pay a high degree of concentration. Normally speaking, he should be sleepy by now, but he only felt very little sleepy, and he felt that he could hold on for a long time.

When the time on the mobile phone was displayed as nine o'clock in the morning, it was already the second half of the night. Zhao Mai felt that it would be strange if he didn't sleep anymore, so he cleaned up the campfire, squeezed under the Chimerapi tent and closed his eyes. He quickly fell asleep, waking Carl up with a soft snoring.

The old man looked at the sky, glanced at the camp by the light of the fire, and smiled with satisfaction. He found that Zhao Mai was sleeping in clothes and had no quilts or anything like that, so he put his cloak on it and rested against a tree with his weapon.

Before dawn, the old man began to be busy, and he could no longer eat pure pork for breakfast, so it was enough to tear off some and cook it in porridge. The porridge is cooked with a mixture of oats, rice, and several kinds of beans, and the taste is very fragrant, and it wakes up Zhao Mai when the pot is just boiling.

The old man took out a paper bag, held it in the palm of his hand and opened it very carefully. Zhao Mai probed his brain and looked over and found that there was some coarse salt in it. The unpurified salt was yellow-brown crystals, and the salt in Carl's hand had some earth particles in one corner. Zhao Mai had heard of this thing, but had never seen it, so he stretched out his finger to grab a little. Karl also shrank back, his eyes rolling twice before handing them back.

I wiped it with my finger and tasted it, but I didn't taste anything, so Zhao Mai picked it up and tasted it. In addition to being salty, there was a mess of strange smells, and he swore he had tasted some chemicals. Picking up the skin bag filled with lake water, Zhao Mai rushed his tongue vigorously and spit it out, unwilling to let Carl put this salt in the porridge.

For him, this is not salt at all, but a poison. Although this thing is far less harmful than gutter oil and Sudan dyes, it is enough to destroy Zhao Mai's entire vision of a bowl of fragrant porridge. You can stick to it without eating salt for a day or two, and you have the opportunity to try to filter and purify some edible salt by yourself.

Seeing that Zhao Mai reacted so much, Carl no longer insisted on putting salt. After a day of getting along, he already regarded Zhao Mai as a kind and fragile junior, and he would take care of him if he could in some aspects. This is the smartest young man he has ever met, and he is studious and has a lot of prospects for development. However, he didn't believe Zhao Mai's statement that he could make salt delicious, thinking that it was a misunderstanding caused by wrong words and sentences.

Since he knew that the salt here was scarce and unpalatable, Zhao Mai decided to make some good salt. There is no gauze needed for filtration, and the cotton T-shirt on the body is barely usable. He needed charcoal to absorb the toxins, so he found some substitutes from the campfire. You can't do your best, but it's absolutely fine to raise the grade of salt.

The tin can is used to cook porridge, so it can't be used to boil salt for a while. Zhao Mai asked Carl and learned that there was a piece of rock salt near his residence, and the animals in the neighborhood often went there. In this case, go and see the situation before you start, maybe the ranger's house has all the better tools.

Always let the ranger take care of it, and this time it's time for him to show his skills. With such a vision, Zhao Mai trotted all the way behind the ranger and quickly walked through the forest. His legs are not idle, his mouth is not idle, whether it is a copycat version of the forest step or the lingua franca, all of them are making rapid progress.
