Chapter 224: In the Mountains and Forests 6
Seeing the tragic situation in the earthquake area, Li Wei did not feel sleepy, came to the tent, the rain outside was still falling, worried not to enter the rainy season, once it entered the rainy season, the road in the mountains and forests will be even more difficult to walk, and I don't know what danger I will encounter.
Early the next morning, Li Wei took out some herbs from the system, boiled a pot, and the Gu family drank a bowl, and then packed up their things and set off.
Gu Lao's legs were injured and he couldn't walk, either by riding a wheelbarrow or on his back, at this time the stone's gesture of favor had an effect, Li Wei let them follow by default, and gave one of them a raincoat, as long as they didn't do it, they would eat it.
In this way, the Gu family's team has grown, but because of the continuous rain overnight, the road in the mountains has become muddy and difficult to walk, so the speed of walking is slower than a few days ago
The wheelbarrows were covered with tarpaulins and tied with ropes so that they would not be caught in the rain, and the stones they pushed and the group moved slowly.
"What about the people of your Tuojiang Society?" Li Wei asked curiously.
After they arrived in Spring City, they successively sent three groups of people to set off to the secret mountain, originally to explore the way, but the three groups of people have not sent back the news so far, and it is unknown whether they are alive or dead.
Coming out of Evergreen City, there were originally dozens of secret guards who had been following, but after the Daqing earthquake last night, Mo Desire had already asked them to go back to check the situation and evacuate the remaining personnel, so now in this mountain forest, there was no one around Mo Desire to protect him, but he didn't have to talk to Li Wei, and there was no need.
"Lost contact?" Seeing that Mo wanted to never speak, Li Wei asked again.
"Almost, so, we're on our own." ”
Li Wei pursed her lips and didn't speak, and she didn't think about relying on others.
The speed of progress is getting slower and slower, the temperature is getting lower and lower, everyone feels a little cold, the two little babies must be carried on their backs, and the iron egg and the apricot blossom are only four years old, and they can't go far, so they can only be held.
Although the eldest girl, the second girl, the little cui, and the plum blossom are older, this mountain road is difficult to walk, and it can't last long, which slows down the marching speed.
"Everybody watch your feet, walk slowly, be careful not to fall."
"If you need help, speak up"
Boss Gu greeted back and forth, and when he saw where he needed help, he would help out. A few people pushed a wheelbarrow and climbed the mountain, it was very cold, but they didn't feel cold at all, and they were sweating profusely.
"Ahh
"Peach Blossom fell into the ditch with the apricot blossom in her arms."
"Boss, go down and have a look." Li Wei hurriedly ordered Boss Gu and Elder Gu.
Gu Boss and Gu Lao Er dragged the small tree on the side and went down, fortunately, although the mountain was high, the road they were walking now was not too steep, and the peach blossom fell into the ditch not far away with the apricot blossom.
Boss Gu hurriedly helped the two of them up.
"Are you alright?"
Peach Blossom shook her head, nothing serious, but Xinghua was frightened and cried.
Gu Lao Er came down and looked very impatient.
"Peach Blossom, what's the matter with you, you can't hug anyone?"
Peach Blossom didn't dare to talk back to Gu Lao Er, for fear that Li Wei and the sisters would think that they were a burden and throw them away, so she held Xinghua by herself this way, but she was also a teenager, and this mountain road was difficult to walk, so she accidentally lost her balance and fell into the ditch.
"I'm sorry second brother, I'll be more careful in the future."
Boss Gu looked at Peach Blossom's low eyebrows and looked a little unbearable, and said.
"It's okay, let's go up, put the apricot blossoms on the wheelbarrow, and let them push it away."
Gu Taohua nodded, she really couldn't hold it anymore.
A few people came up, Gu Boss put the apricot blossom on the wheelbarrow, Li Wei took a look at the eldest girl, the second girl, the plum blossom and the little cui, and finally let the three small ones, the little cui and the iron egg all follow the wheelbarrow.
In this way, the stones are carried by the six of them, but they are heavier.
"Brother, I'm glad I suffered you today." Li Wei said to the stone.
Shi shook his head: "It's okay, auntie, we have strength." ”
Don't have the strength, this rain doesn't stop, a few of them have nothing, either follow the Gu family, if they don't starve to death, they will freeze to death, but he saw it, the Chen family has been following them unhurriedly, obviously they can go faster, but they didn't do it.
Even the Chen family felt that it was safe to follow the Gu family, so they naturally had to hug this thigh.
It was raining heavily, but it was only two o'clock in the afternoon, but the sky was already dark, and I was desperate to go ahead to explore the way, ready to find a suitable place to stay.
Finally, I found a large rock, with an area of about 100 square meters, and the ground was very flat. The only bad thing is that it is a little cold at the tuyere, but I can't help it, the material of their tent is very good, and it is windproof.
When they arrived at the place, everyone quickly set up the tent, and they were afraid that the wind would be strong at night in the mountains, so they directly hit the screws under the stones and beat them very firmly. And Li Wei also put on an extra layer of oilcloth.
The Chen family has been following Li Wei and them, and Li Wei has let Gu Lao mostly build a canopy, but it can only shelter from the rain, there is no fence on the four sides, and it cannot prevent the wind.
"Madame. Madame," Xiaoqing called Li Wei.
"What's the matter?"
The maid glanced at the young master and young lady who were frozen and shrunk behind her, and pleaded.
"Madam, you see that the wind is so strong here, can you let our young lady and young master go into the tent to take shelter?"
"This is the tuyere, it's already windy, you can go inside, although it's cold in the forest, but the wind is light."
Xiaoqing looked embarrassed, they didn't even have an oilcloth, and there was no cave nearby, how could they live in the forest?
"It's only been a few days since we entered the mountain, and the road behind is still very long, you can't follow us all the time, let us help you."
After saying that, Li Wei turned around and left, the young lady of the Chen family looked polite, but obviously she had to rely on the Gu family, and the future was unknown, she was not willing to drag a bunch of giant babies.
Xiaoqing saw that Li Wei didn't want to help at all, and her tone was not too good
"Madam, it's such a cold weather, your tent is so big, let's go in and hide, it's not impossible to live if we squeeze it, those ruffian ladies are willing to help, why don't you want to help us?"
Li Wei sneered: "Stone they helped us along the way to promote the courtesy of holding children, what did you help us?" ”
"And more importantly, they are very grateful for our help and don't feel that we owe him."
Xiaoqing's face was embarrassed: "It's just a few ruffians, who do evil on weekdays, will such a person know how to be grateful?" It's just that I have asked you now, and I deliberately pretended to do it, madam, don't be deceived by them. ”
Li Wei: "Even if it's pretended, they at least pretend, but you don't even pretend." ”
After speaking, looking at Xiaoqing, who looked embarrassed, Li Wei reminded her very kindly.
"You still want to think about how to survive in this mountain forest, don't put your hope on us."
Seeing Li Wei leaving, Xiaoqing also went back angrily, fortunately, a shed was built here, so that it would not rain, and it would be able to ignite the firewood, but it had rained for a day today, and the dry firewood they picked up yesterday was almost exhausted, so there was really no way to do it then.
Xiaoqing took out a cloak from the salute and put it on her own young lady.
The young master of the Chen family was a little angry when he saw Xiaoqing returning in vain.
"You didn't tell them who we were?"
Xiaoqing shook her head: "They directly refused." ”
The young master of the Chen family has been pampered since he was a child, when did he receive this kind of bird qi, the mountains were cold and wet, he knew that his lips had no color at all, and he looked at Li Wei and the others hiding in the tent to enjoy the blessings, he was angry and blurted out a scolding.
"These untouchables, when we go out later, we can't spare them."
Seeing this, Mama Lou on the side hurriedly said, "Young Master, why don't you wait for Lin Da and Lin Er to come back and talk to them?" ”
Lin Da and Lin Er were the guards arranged by the Chen family to protect them, and now they were going outside to find food, and let the two of them talk, which meant that they were to force the Gu family to let them into the tent.
The two young masters of the Chen family all looked at Chen Manman, and Chen Manman pursed his lips.
"The Chen family is not a bully, let's find another opportunity to discuss with Mrs. Gu to see if they can change their minds."
