Su Hong feasted on a few servings of slate fried crocodile meat, although the taste was average, but every bite of it could relieve the discomfort on his body and make Su Hong feel refreshed.

Once you've eaten and drunk, it's time to continue your journey.

Although he wanted to stay here for three days, the smell of blood on his body was disgusting, so he continued to look for clear water to wash off his clothes and blood.

But where do you go to find clear water?

It stands to reason that the water upstream should be relatively clear, right?

Su Hong picked up a leaf and threw it into the river, intending to determine the direction of the river by relying on the direction in which the leaves floated, and in which direction the leaves floated, he just went in the opposite direction, this was the method he got when he had nothing to do with all kinds of messy knowledge before, and he usually liked to look at some strange and unused knowledge.

Su Hong doesn't hate knowledge, learning knowledge itself is not painful, the pain is that you have to take exams, you have to make a living from it, you have to understand the incomprehensible part, if it is only the level of popular science, it can satisfy people's desire for knowledge, and it will not make people feel painful.

But the ideal is very plump, the reality is very skinny, the leaves neither drift to the left nor to the right, the leaves float horizontally, and float to the other side.

There is always a gap between theory and practice, and often the theory is beautiful, but there are always some unexpected problems in practice.

If you don't judge the level of the terrain...

Forehead...

It seems to be flat ground, it seems to be high on the left, and it seems to be high on the right, with the naked eye, it is impossible to observe where the undulating place is high and where it is low, the slope here is very gentle, and the ups and downs, plus the towering trees make Su Hong unable to see the whole picture of the surroundings, it is even more difficult to judge where to go.

If you are undecided, you should ask more, although others may not necessarily answer, but you will not lose a piece of meat if you ask anyway: "Xiaobai, where should we go?" ”

"Hehe~" Xiaobai glanced at Su Hong and muttered, "This is a good question, but I don't know." ”

"ε=( ́ο'*))))Alas..."Su Hong sighed, it seems that he may not have a chance to wash off the blood stains on his body, but to be honest, the blood has dried up now, and the taste has faded a lot, plus Su Hong is almost used to this smell, even if he doesn't wash it, it's not completely unacceptable." Shall we set up camp here? ”

"No problem, but we still face food shortages. If the hunger debuff appears, it will quickly become weak, so don't try to starve for three days. ”

"Isn't there crocodile meat?" There was a lot of smoked crocodile meat before, Su Hong felt that it was enough to eat, and people would eat about a pound of meat at a meal, if it was only three days, the bacon should be enough, after all, these crocodiles are not small.

"Ahem... The crocodile meat is eaten by you, and the rest can't be eaten due to various unexpected factors, after all, it is a primeval forest, and there are many environmental factors that make the food spoiled and spoiled. Xiao Bai rolled his eyes, looked at the tree on the side and said to Su Hong, looking a little weak.

"Hmm." Su Hong nodded, this is not incomprehensible.

But in fact, crocodile meat is not spoiled because of environmental factors, but Xiaobai wasted a lot when seasoning, after all, if you want to make a proper taste, it also needs to be experimented, and after countless failures, Xiaobai only made a barely delicious taste.

The smoked itself is only enough for two people to eat for three days, and after being consumed a lot by Xiaobai's experiment, it is almost gone.

"So, do we need to go hunting?"

"Yes."

Su Hong frowned, it was not that he had never seen wild beasts when he came, most of them were herbivores, that is to say, the danger of hunting was not high, but there was a big problem that those animals ran away before Su Hong could get close, showing a lot of vigilance.

Seeing Su Hong's animal that doesn't run, Su Hong can't beat it, Su Hong can beat it, and he ran away when he heard the movement, it can be said that it is an unsolvable problem, if you want to catch up with a wild deer or other animals in this primeval forest, it is simply difficult to reach the sky, it is better to expect the carnivore to take the initiative to come to the tip of his sword.

Why don't you catch a fish?

However, the water is too muddy, and it is almost impossible to see if there are any fish in it.

"Xiaobai, do you want to take a walk in the direction of the river?"

It's not easy to get lost along the river, it's better if you can walk to a place where the water is clear upstream, even if you go wrong, you can return here, if you go to the woods, it is estimated that you will lose your direction after walking about a hundred meters, after all, the surrounding environment looks the same.

"Yes, it's a good choice."

Hearing Xiaobai's affirmative answer, Su Hong got up and was about to start leaving, but was stopped by Xiaobai again: "Stop, stop, you just leave?" ”

"Uh... Shouldn't I have walked like this? Su Hong scratched his head with some confusion, lowered his head and looked at his feet, and didn't know how to walk to call it appropriate.

"Hmph~" Xiaobai patted the big bag on the side, pouted and said to Su Hong: "Can you bear to let the cute and petite beautiful girl carry such a big bag?" ”

“。。。”

All right...

The bag was a little heavier than Su Hong imagined, but it was not unacceptable, so he picked up the bag and Xiaobai and began to walk along the river.

Walking along the river, Su Hong's luck is not bad, after passing a while, the water becomes clearer and clearer, this is the direction of the upstream, there is a lake nearby, the water in it is relatively clear, at least there is no problem with the naked eye, it should be able to wash clothes.

The density of trees around is not as large as before, and there is a lake, so the view is relatively good, which is refreshing.

Choose one of the two, Su Hong is lucky, but there is a good part of luck, and there is also a bad part of bad luck.

Su Hong walked a few steps very normally, just felt that the ground was a little soft, but what he didn't expect was that soon Su Hong sank in, this is a swamp.

"Xiaobai, can you pull me?" Su Hong didn't panic much, anyway, with Xiaobai here, he shouldn't be able to die, he believed that Xiaobai would definitely not let him die like this, no matter if Xiaobai wanted to use him or treat him as a pet or something, he wouldn't let him die like this.

Xiaobai was very lucky, she had been walking with Su Hong all the time, but she had just decided to go and see what fish were in the lake, and Su Hong decided to find a better location to set up camp.

"Throw the bag out, the rope is inside, I'll pull you out with the rope."

Su Hong did so, but as soon as he threw the bag out, Su Hong sank again, originally only submerged to his knees, but now he was almost submerging his thighs, even if he didn't struggle, Su Hong was constantly sinking.

To be honest, the feeling of being swallowed up in a swamp is quite magical.

Because his chest has not yet submerged in the swamp, he does not have a feeling of tightness in his chest, Su Hong has a feeling that he is slowly falling, which may be a bit outrageous, but Su Hong inexplicably has a feeling of flying, just in the air against gravity, closing his eyes has a feeling of a lonely hero.

Su Hong shook his head, no, he must have a brain, he has never heard of someone falling into a swamp have this feeling, most people fall deeper and deeper, and then die.

"What are you doing?" Xiaobai looked at Su Hong suspiciously, she had already thrown the rope over, but Su Hong didn't grab the rope, but closed her eyes with a strange expression.

"I feel like I'm a reed now."

“？” Xiaobai looked at the sky for a while, and almost wrote the question mark on his face.

"Haven't you heard that a man named Pascal said that man is a thinking reed, and now I understand a little bit."

In the past, Su Hong didn't remember whether it was a textbook for elementary school or junior high school, anyway, there was an article with this sentence in it, and Su Hong couldn't remember what was written in the other words, but only this sentence, Su Hong remembered it very clearly, maybe because this sentence sounded unclear.

"So you want to die here and be reincarnated as a reed?"

"No, I'm just a reed, and I don't need to be reincarnated." Su Hong said with a serious face.

Yes, I am not a human being, but a reed, a reed that thinks.

Xiao Bai flicked the rope and signaled, and the other end of the rope was tied to a nearby tree to prevent Su Hong from dragging her directly into the swamp: "If you don't grab the rope again, you will become a dead reed." ”

Su Hong was already submerged in his abdomen at the moment, but he still didn't panic at all: "Xiaobai, ask you a question." ”

"Can you come out first and ask?" Xiaobai said a little speechlessly, she didn't understand it, she had lived for so many years, and it was the first time she had seen someone fall into a swamp when she suddenly had a look of enlightenment on her face, even if she couldn't die, she shouldn't have this kind of expression, right.

"You don't necessarily feel it when you come out and ask, can you help me live here and let me stay here? There is an inexplicable sense of relaxation. Su Hong changed his posture and became half-lying on the swamp, so that his chest and head were exposed, so that there would be no feeling of chest tightness, except that his hair was not very comfortable with mud, soaking in the swamp was actually quite comfortable, but it could be fatal.

“。。。” Xiao Bai squinted his eyes and looked at Su Hong with a confused expression.

However, Su Hong still pulled the rope, and he couldn't ask the question, it was better to say that he didn't ask it, and now that he came back to his senses, he felt that the question he wanted to ask just now might be more shameful, after all, people in the state of a sage who has realized so much will think about some very high-end questions, life and death, war and peace, and so on.

It was quite comfortable to soak in the swamp just now, but now after coming out, the mud is a little uncomfortable, and I feel a little heavy in my body, as if I am muddled.

"Why can't you think about it all of a sudden?" Xiaobai circled around Su Hong a few times, but she didn't mind that Su Hong was a little whimsical, if everything was within her expectations, then it would be meaningless at all.

"Haha, it's just a feeling, touching the scene."

Su Hong smiled awkwardly, he didn't think it just now, but looking back, even Su Hong himself felt that he was a little sick, and he couldn't do this kind of thing without 10 years of cerebral thrombosis.
