Chapter 075: Together
Xie Yuanjiu rubbed his shoulder, at this time, the wound began to ache a little faintly again, but he endured it.
He had already seen and bandaged it himself in the morning, and there were only a few bloody scratches, which were nothing to him.
As for the question of where to live, in fact, he has been struggling for a long time, and he still can't make up his mind.
The cave in the rhododendron forest would definitely not dare to go back for a while, and judging from their current situation, it must be the most suitable to set up a tent to live in this grassy mountain.
Then with the two hares and wild vegetables given by Uncle Xiong, plus the little dry food he had left, he hurried to dig Cordyceps and went down the mountain as soon as possible.
In this way, Xie Yuanjiu has already calculated, their food will last on the mountain for two days at most, because there are still several days to go down the mountain, if there is no follow-up food supply, if they can't catch wild things, they will probably be directly explained in this mountain because of food shortages.
If this road is the only option, Xie Yuanjiu will not hesitate, but it just so happened that Uncle Xiong told him last night that if he continued to go up the mountain, it would take about a day or so, and there would be a sea, and there was a waterfall next to the sea, and there was a cave behind the waterfall, which was bigger than the cave below.
The climatic conditions above were very harsh, at first he was chasing a few wild goats unconsciously climbed to the top, and finally the sheep did not catch up, almost frozen to death on the top, at the last moment, only to find that there was a cave behind the waterfall, and finally relied on the fish in the sea, saving his life.
To tell the truth, Xie Yuanjiu was moved when he heard Uncle Xiong talk about it, if it weren't for Yao Wenjing, he might have gone up the mountain without hesitation, because Uncle Xiong said that there is also a grass mountain on it, which is almost unfooted by almost no one at ordinary times, and the quality of Cordyceps on it is better than this one.
But now with a quiet girl.
Today he hesitated for a whole day, and finally did not make his choice, until now when asked by Yao Wenjing, he decided to put the choice in her hands.
Yao Wenjing listened carefully to Xie Yuanjiu's words about Uncle Xiong, and finally couldn't help but complain to him.
"Why didn't you say it earlier, so that we can go directly to the mountain today, and we don't have to delay here for so long."
In Yao Wenjing's opinion, what else is there to be entangled, as long as they go to that high mountain and sea, there will be fish in the lake, then there is no existential crisis for them.
And according to Uncle Xiong, the cave is warm in winter and cool in summer, that is to say, food and housing have been settled, and there is a grass mountain nearby, so you can rest assured and boldly dig Cordyceps on it.
Why not?
Seeing that Yao Wen was so resolute, Xie Yuanjiu had nothing to hesitate about, and the two immediately decided to find a leeward col near here tonight to rest, and then set off early tomorrow morning.
Xie Yuanjiu had a tent, and it was not until this time that Yao Wenjing found that his preparation was still not sufficient, he set up the tent, and at this moment, Yao Wenjing had already set up a small antimony pot to cook porridge there.
After eating dinner at will, they were only half full, and Xie Yuanjiu urged Yao Wenjing to go to the tent to rest, and set off early tomorrow morning.
"What about you?"
Xie Yuanjiu wrapped the padded jacket on his body, lowered his hat a little, and leaned against the tent.
"I'm just outside, leeward here, and it's about the same as in the tent."
Yao Wenjing said that she didn't agree with anything, obviously she was occupying the magpie's nest, and at this time, she still cared about the difference between men and women.
She didn't bother to talk to him.
"Uncle Yuanjiu, what are you worried about, is it possible that you really have the idea of committing a crime so that you don't dare to live in a tent with me? This is your tent, if you really don't want to stay in a tent with me, if you want to go out, I will go out. ”
Xie Yuanjiu always felt that something was wrong, he was a prisoner of labor reform, or because of such a crime, he had been suffering from white eyes, and he had a deep inferiority complex in his heart.
Yao Wenjing on the side was open.
"I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of, are you afraid that I will eat you?"
Xie Yuanjiu secretly scolded himself for having a dirty thought, standing in front of him was a child, what was he thinking and what he was afraid of.
That night, the two leaned in the tent like this, wrapped in the quilt and rested for the night, at the beginning, Xie Yuanjiu was still far away from Yao Wenjing, for fear that this girl would be afraid.
But in the end, when I slept in a daze, almost out of instinct, they approached little by little, and it was warmest to lean together.
They leaned together through the quilt without the slightest distraction.
Since going up the mountain, this is the most restful night Xie Yuanjiu has slept on, no, it should be that since he was imprisoned five years ago, he has not slept so deeply, until he felt the itch between his noses, he sneezed loudly, and then woke up.
Yao Wenjing sat next to him and watched him, still holding a thatch in his hand, very naughty.
Seeing him wake up, he smiled as warm as the morning light.
"Uncle Yuan Jiu, morning, today I used nettle and rabbit meat to boil porridge, how about you taste it."
This is simply too happy, Xie Yuanjiu was in a trance for a while, and he couldn't wait to have such treatment every day, so he immediately sat up, his movements were too big, and the injury on his right shoulder was so painful that he frowned.
Yao Wenjing noticed this detail and came over again to pull his clothes.
"Uncle Yuan Jiu, you let me see your injuries."
