Chapter 228: In the Mountains and Forests 10
Lao Li Tou led the team to walk in the front, twenty miles of land walked for about two hours, although the road was full of fog, but because Lao Li Tou was familiar with the road, so everyone did not take any unjust road, to the river when it was almost one o'clock in the afternoon.
Li Wei took a look at the scenery on both sides, green mountains and green waters, a good paradise, provided that she did not escape from the wilderness.
The place where they stopped was the entrance of the dark river, and soon the Gu family set up the tents, and there were still some people behind who did not arrive, including the Chen family.
If you want to cross the river, you must have a boat, and the boat will not be able to do it for a while, so you have to make a raft first. There is a large bamboo forest not far away, and the ink is desperate to take everyone to cut bamboo, all the bamboo selected is the bamboo with thick calves of adult men, cut dozens of them back, shave off the branches, mark the bamboo strips, and then start to weave bamboo rafts.
Some followed, and when they saw the Gu family weaving a bamboo raft, they also made it together, and a few families made a bamboo raft for a few people, and a family with a large number of people made one or two for a family.
The Gu family plus a few stones, as well as a few salutes on wheelbarrows, and two bamboo rafts should be braided.
Therefore, Mo was desperate and took people to cut a wave of bamboo, but fortunately, there were enough bamboos in the bamboo forest, and he was not afraid of not enough.
As soon as the bamboo was cut and dragged back, the Chen family finally came, and Chen Chao and Chen Manman were both supported.
"Mrs. Gu, help."
When Chen Zhuo saw Li Wei, he rushed over as if he saw a bodhisattva
Li Wei was so frightened that she took a few steps back.
"Mrs. Gu, please save my younger brothers and sisters, they are sick."
Li Wei stepped forward to check, Chen Chao and Chen Manman were pale, their bodies were hot, and they were also groggy.
"My stomach hurts." Suddenly, Chen Chao held his stomach and pushed away Lin's stool and ran towards the forest.
Chen Manman soon ran towards the forest with his stomach in his hands.
Chen Zhuo hurriedly explained: "My second brother and my little sister have had seven or eight stomach pulls along the way, and they have a fever and stomach ache. ”
Li Wei: "They are frozen, I have some herbs for treating wind and cold, I will give them to you, let them drink them after boiling." ”
Seeing Li Wei say this, Chen Zhuo said with some embarrassment.
"Madam, my second brother and younger sister should have been hit by miasma."
Li Wei suddenly realized that the two of them did not drink the herbs boiled by Lin Dahong.
Chen Zhuo hurriedly explained.
"My second brother and younger sister have been weak since they were young, and they usually don't dare to take medicine indiscriminately, and they knew that they would encounter miasma, so they would definitely drink the medicine you prepared for everyone, Mrs. Gu."
Li Wei smiled, she didn't care if others didn't trust her, they were all irrelevant people anyway.
"It doesn't matter, it's just that since your younger brothers and sisters don't trust me, now you ask me to take the medicine, can you make sure that they will take it?"
At this time, Chen Chao also came back, and when he heard Chen Zhuo's words, his face was a little embarrassed, and then he heard Li Wei's answer, thinking that Li Wei didn't want to help them because he didn't drink medicine.
"Big brother, it's okay, I don't believe that this miasma can poison me to death, and I will detoxify my diarrhea."
Chen Zhuo saw that Chen Chao was about to lose his temper again, so he hurriedly scolded.
"Second brother, now is not the time to be willful, if we make a mistake in the wild, it is very likely that we will die."
Chen Chao pouted: "I said that I am a long-lived person, how can a mere miasma defeat me." ”
Saying that, he looked at Li Wei, Li Wei smiled and said, "Since the second young master is not worried, then I won't be in trouble, and this herb is almost running out." ”
Li Wei turned around and left, Chen Zhuo looked at Chen Chao, unable to speak.
"Second brother, what are you making trouble, look at what has become of the little sister."
Chen Chao looked at Chen Manman, who was very weak and walked over, and was also distressed, but he still had a hard mouth.
"I just can't get used to seeing her look high, but I just took a little herb out and wanted me to beg her, dreaming."
Chen Zhuo shook his head, his second brother was really spoiled, and he wanted everyone to hold him, but this was not at home, how could it be.
What's more, now it is their Chen family who needs her, not the Chen family.
"Big brother, you go and ask Mrs. Gu to help me get some medicine, and then thank her for me."
Seeing that the little sister did not follow the second brother to commit stubbornness, Chen Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid that Chen Manman, like Chen Chao, would have to suffer with face.
"Little sister, what do you thank her for, a mud leg is just a little herb, she thinks she is, how can she afford your gratitude."
Listening to Chen Chao's words, Chen Manman didn't say anything, and she didn't want to grovel, but she was really about to collapse, and she didn't want to die on the way to escape before she reached her destination.
Here the Gu family is busy with the division of labor, weaving bamboo rafts, and several children of the Gu family are still very good at slippery strips.
Chen Zhuo came to ask for medicine, but Li Wei didn't embarrass him, and directly gave the herbs.
Chen Zhuo called a few servants over and asked them to see how the Gu family weaved bamboo rafts, and they would have to learn when the time came.
For a moment everyone was busy, the fog dispersed, and the sun came out through the clouds. The temperature has risen a lot, many people have rolled up their trouser legs and gone down to the river to fish, and a few people have also run to the river to spear fish, and they have been eating with the Gu family for the past few days, and they want to catch some fish today to add a meal.
The stone sharpened a fork with bamboo, and I wanted to fork the fish, but it was not accurate enough, and I didn't get any results for a long time.
Li Wei looked at it, there happened to be a vine man not far away, asked the stone to cut some, made a basket, put the rice pot that was not eaten yesterday to the bottom of the basket, and then let the stone go to the middle of the water a little deeper.
Carried by hand, but for a few minutes, pulled up, already loaded with a basket of fish.
"Wow, this is really useful, auntie, why are you so smart?"
The stone smiled so much that he couldn't see his teeth, and the others looked very envious, but they couldn't learn from envy, because they didn't have any leftovers.
This method of catching fish is most useful in places where there are not many fishermen on weekdays, and this is what an elder Li Wei told her in her previous life.
Li Wei's elder followed her father on the boat when she was a child, and on the Jialing River, she would often put the rice in the basket and put it in the river when the ship docked, and then it was a basket when it was mentioned, but this method can only be used once in the same place, so the fish also have intelligence.
In the end, Shi and the others caught a few baskets of fish, Li Wei saw that there were many fish, so she asked Lin Dahong to make a pot of boiled fish, and then prepared to grill the fish, anyway, there are many seasonings in her system, and she is not afraid that the grilled fish will not be delicious.
After a while, the aroma of grilled fish came out, and looking at the charred fish, Li Wei had a great appetite.
Other people also caught fish, seeing that Li Wei's grilled fish was so fragrant, they also learned to grill it, but when it was cooked thoroughly, it didn't smell as delicious as Li Wei.
The Chen family is surrounded by servants and maids, adding up to almost twenty people, and a few people are guards, these subordinates of the big guardian family are good hands in the house, and they will be blind when they come out in the wild.
Originally, when they saw the stones, they caught so many fish, and they also went to catch them, but in the end, they only caught three, and they were only the size of a palm, and Kankan boiled a pot of soup for Chen Manman.
The Chen family came out in a hurry, and even the food was distributed to them by two families in the past two days, and there was no seasoning, so the fish soup was very bland.
Chen Manman disliked that the fish soup was not delicious, and his mouth had no appetite after drinking the medicine, and he wanted to eat something with a strong taste, Chen Zhuo saw the wilting appearance of the little sister, and pulled down his old face and came to borrow seasoning from Li Wei.
Li Wei has a bad impression of the Chen family, and many of these spices are not products of this era, so she is worried that she will be in trouble after lending them casually.
