Chapter 61: Snake Soup
Cangma never thought that everyone would be so convinced of him. He only felt that these things were what he should have done. Even if he was injured, it was nothing, because he expected to be injured from the beginning.
This has become his habit, and he is used to taking everything on his own.
Because he thinks that since he has this ability, he should do more for others.
But it is precisely because he has done so much for others that his ability has become greater and greater, so he can do more for others.
In his heart, this is nothing, in the eyes of others, this is responsibility.
A responsible person can always easily win the trust of those around him, because he carries a strong cohesion in himself, and people are willing to follow him.
And this is the charm of Cangma.
"Big brother, let's help you go to the basement to rest, just stay here for the next few days, and when you are healed, we will continue to hurry. ”
"Forget it. Cangma waved his hand, "I killed the patriarch, they must have a grudge against me, not to mention that the boy believed from the beginning that his father was also killed by me." It's not appropriate for us to just go over like this. ”
"Shall we just make it clear to them?"
"Do you think they're going to take our word for it, and even if we tell the truth, they'll just think we're making it up. Cangma continued: "There is no need to go to them to rest, the underground is boring, so it's good to find a random place to rest nearby." ”
"Well, then listen to you. Shen Fang instructed everyone to clean up a clearing nearby, spread hay, and light a bonfire.
Then he helped the horse to rest.
Everyone fell asleep one after another, but Shen Fang kept his eyes open, and he never dared to sleep.
This night, Cangma woke up four or five times, and each time he asked for water to drink.
But Shen Fang knew that he woke up in pain.
When Cangma fell asleep, as long as his body moved slightly, he frowned in pain. Because I fell asleep, my consciousness was not fully awake, so I subconsciously revealed my true expression.
But as soon as Shen Fang stepped forward, Cangma would immediately retract his painful expression when he saw him.
"Have you water, thirsty, thirsty awake? "His lips were white and his face was sallow.
After drinking the water, he quickly fell asleep again, because he was so tired that he began to snore not long after lying down.
Shen Fang kept the water bag in his arms, because it was cold, so he could cover the water warmer, so that it would not be difficult to eat.
He kept guarding the horse until dawn.
Qin Shaochong was the first to wake up, "How is it?" he asked Shen Fang.
"Shhhh Shen Fang made a silent gesture, "Don't wake up Big Brother, come and talk." ”
The two walked into the distance, and Shen Fang continued: "Last night, I woke up several times, and now I am asleep, so don't bother him." ”
"Otherwise, let's not be in a hurry these days, let the eldest brother recuperate for a few days. ”
"That's what I thought, too. Shen Fang said: "You go and talk to others, do things lightly, don't wake up the eldest brother." ”
"Where are you going?"
"I'm going to kill a few snakes and make soup. ”
"I'll go too. ”
"Okay, let's go together. After speaking, Shen Fang called Liu Rufeng and ordered him to find a pot to boil water for stewing soup, while he and Qin Shaochong went to the wetland to kill snakes.
Because he had mastered the knack of dealing with pythons, the trip went very smoothly, and when he came back, the water in the pot was not yet boiling.
After the water boiled, Shen Fang chopped the snake meat into small pieces and put it into the pot, and then waited quietly.
The soup simmered for several hours until Cangma woke up.
Everyone looked at Cangma in a circle, hoping that he would get better. Qin Shaochong helped Cangma sit up, and Shen Fang put out the hot soup to blow it cold.
"Big brother, drink soup. ”
The conversations between men are always so short and effective, they never express their inner feelings through beautiful sentences, because what hangs on their lips is always false. So they prefer to say fewer beautiful words and do more of what they can. Even a trivial thing is worth 10,000 nice words.
However, even if they don't say anything, Cangma won't be able to understand their hearts?
Experienced!
It was precisely because of the realization of this affection that Cangma's eyes were red.
The bowl of hot soup was very hot, but Shen Fang hadn't let go of his hand since he picked up the bowl of hot, and his fingers were still holding it carefully when they were red from the scalding, and he didn't spill a drop.
There was no table in the middle of nowhere, so he had to hold it until the soup was cold, cold enough to take his mouth. But he didn't feel any pain at all, because it was worth it, as long as drinking this bowl of soup could make Cangma feel a little better, it would be worth it!
But Cangma didn't take the bowl of soup for a long time, and he was stunned at that moment.
"Big brother, broth, drink it, the injury will heal faster. ”
"Okay, I'll drink!"
He took the bowl and drank it in a big gulp, there was no salt or any ingredients in the soup, only the fresh, rich, fishy smell of snake meat.
But as long as it's hot and fresh, it's enough, don't you have to have some jade plate delicacies?
For Cangma, this is the world's best delicacy.
Because only children are picky eaters, they can distinguish what is delicious and what is unpalatable.
This bowl of soup can provide Cangma with the nutrients he needs most to recover from his wounds, and after drinking it, it can provide him with warm calories all over his body, and it can give him endless emotion in his heart, which makes him have to get better quickly.
Isn't this the best delicacy in the world?
It is!
So he quickly drank a full bowl, and he wiped the corners of his mouth, "It's delicious!"
Shen Fang smiled, and everyone laughed too, because their kindness was fully accepted by Cangma, and there was nothing more pleasing than this.
I have met people who were guests at a friend's house who, despite his poor family, greeted him with the highest standard of treatment. But after these people had eaten their hearts, they patted their stomachs and said, "It doesn't taste good, I've eaten food that tastes better than this somewhere." They boast about how high-class the food elsewhere is, to show that they have a lot of experience, and they think it's amazing to pat their bellies. Perhaps, they were boasting the truth, but what they said must have made the friend very sad.
But I don't think it's really useful to say that. For to say such things would only make him more disgusting, and would only make him lose a precious friend, and he would gain nothing else. So I think it's going to be hard for such a person to make a few real friends.
"Big brother, since it's delicious, let's drink another bowl!"
The rest of the people followed suit: "Yes, big brother, drink another bowl." ”
Shen Fang took another bowl of soup and brought it to Cangma, "Big brother." ”
Cangma took the bowl and drank it again, the taste was heavier than the fishy smell of the first bowl, and it was more difficult to eat.
But he thought, isn't that the same thing when it's delicious and unpalatable? He remembered that when he was hungry, he couldn't even drink a sip of water. He thought that when he was separated in the future, he would want to drink such a bowl of soup cooked by Shen Fang himself, and I am afraid it would not be so easy.
So he immediately felt that this bowl of soup was extremely delicious, and he drank the second bowl in one go!
"Big brother, is that enough? Do you want another bowl?"
Cangma touched his stomach, "It's full, I can't be full anymore, hahaha, otherwise I'll really have to drink another bowl." ”
Shen Fang looked at the rest of the soup in the pot, "Then let's drink the rest of the soup separately." ”
Qin Shaochong was the first, picked up the bowl and took a big sip. He almost couldn't help but spit out the soup, but he glanced at Cangma and then at Shen Fang, and quietly drank a full bowl.
Next, everyone is the same as Qin Shaochong, they will show a strange expression when they take the first sip, but everyone will praise "It's delicious!" after drinking.
Finally it was Shen Fang's turn, the last bowl of soup was his, he was just about to drink it, but Qin Shaochong snatched it up and drank it all.
"It's so delicious, how can there be a bowl left. He finished drinking it in one gulp, looked at Shen Fang and said, "Oh, it turns out that you haven't drunk it yet, I forgot." ”
"Hahaha, it's okay, it's okay, just drink happily. ”
This pot of soup was boiled by Shen Fang himself, the first time he made soup, in the three hours of stewing soup, his eyes almost never left the soup pot for a moment. He kept adding or subtracting firewood to control the size of the flame, just because he was afraid that the soup would be ruined.
But in the end, he still didn't take a sip, because everyone didn't want him to know the secret, and the soup was actually very unpalatable.
So even if he didn't drink it, he was very happy, because everyone said that the soup he cooked was delicious, and his hard work was not in vain.
But I think that even if Shen Fang knew this secret, he would not be very sad, he would only be very moved, and in addition, he would definitely find a way to cook this pot of soup more delicious.
Cangma is not a very stubborn person, and in these days of injury, he has always played the role of a patient very peacefully. After some people get sick, for the sake of face and not to drag others down, they will always do something that is not conducive to physical recovery.
But Cangma didn't do this, he accepted all the kindness, rested seriously, ate seriously, and worked hard to recover his body. Because he knows that only by doing this can he get better faster, live up to the care of others, and not cause more trouble to others. So everyone is very relieved about this.
Cangma's injuries were also getting better faster than expected, and by noon on the fourth day, the surface had completely scabbed, but it was a little itchy, which was a sign that the inside of the wound was beginning to heal.
At this time, he could do some exercise properly, and the sun was very good, so everyone decided to start walking after discussion. At the same time, Qin Shaochong and the others also prepared a stretcher, and if Cangma was tired of walking, everyone would carry him.
But before leaving, Cangma raised another question, that is, did those villagers really let them live in that dark room?
Some people may not be worth saving, but the child named Wang Yuan has a good heart and attaches great importance to affection, if he doesn't give him a touch, his future will be ruined when he grows up in this environment.
He must not be willing to go with the "enemy", and even if he did, such an adventurous journey is really not suitable for a child, not to mention that Cangma is still injured.
Therefore, if you want to save this child and get him out of this environment, there is only hatred.
