Chapter 121
Will: "That's right! The woman ran away with no clothes on, she couldn't have survived in this dangerous place! and she didn't know there was a gold mine here......"
"Will, we should check out the terrain here!"
Someone finally began to challenge Will's position, and in fact, some people have long been unaccustomed to Will's conservatism.
With their help, they were able to carry all 15 bamboos back to the cave before dark.
Every time, Tang Yun carried one by himself, and the three women carried one together.
Even so, the three women were so tired that they didn't want to move, they finally knew how hard it was to do physical work.
Tang Yun cooks, boils fish soup, crab and smoked pork.
Liu Jie looked at the bamboo and asked suspiciously, "Mr. Tang, do you want to connect these bamboos to the upper reaches of the river?"
Tang Jing nodded: "Yes, I have seen the terrain, these are enough." ”
Liu Jie: "Then how do you get the water? The node in the middle of the bamboo is not connected. ”
Tang Jing stopped talking, and suddenly smiled: "If this matter is handed over to you, what will you do?"
Liu Jie: "Use a knife to stab the middle node...... But you can only stab the two ends, and there is no way to do it in the middle. ”
Tang Jing: "Liu Jie, you have to understand what our purpose is. ”
Liu Jie: "Pick up the water." ”
Tang Jing: "That's right, so, but what do you do with these bamboos, as long as you can get water." Therefore, you can split the bamboo in half, so that you can dig up all the nodes with a knife, and you will naturally be able to receive water. ”
I see!
"Mr. Tang is so smart!"
"Cut! Tang Yun also knows. Isn't it, Tang Yun?"
Tang Yun: "You don't need to ask such a simple question. ”
Liu Jie was not convinced, and said to Tang Yun: "Xiaodong, what if the bamboo is not split from the middle, half of it is big and half of it is small?"
Tang Yun: "It's okay, if the small half can't be used, don't use it, anyway, there are a lot of bamboos, and these are not enough to cut it." ”
Liu Jie had nothing to say.
Tang Jing: "This is character and vision. Liu Jie, I'll give you a task, when you keep vigil, you can carve a pair of mahjong with bamboo when you have time. "TV Mobile/
Liu Jie said excitedly: "Okay, Mr. Tang." ”
According to Tang Jing's arrangement, Liu Jie and Anne kept watch in the middle of the night, each for two weeks. And Tang Jing has been keeping watch for the first half of the night, and Tang Yun is not keeping vigil.
After the meal, Tang Yun split all the bamboo, as Liu Jie said, not all the bamboo is exactly split from the middle, but it can barely be used.
After chopping the bamboo, he had no intention of sleeping, and carried an axe to cut down trees nearby.
Under Tang Jing's arrangement, Anne used a knife to dig out the bamboo part, while Tang Jing herself tied the toilet frame.
The toilet shed that Tang Yun had tied to the river before was unexpectedly washed away by the heavy rain and river water.
Tang Jing originally said that this matter would be handed over to Tang Yun, but after seeing the framework that Tang Yun tied, Tang Jing would do it herself, so she didn't want to trouble Tang Yun about this kind of trivial matter.
Liu Jie lowered her head and whispered, "Mr. Tang, I'll go find Xiaodong." ”
Tang Jing shook his head and objected: "Liu Jie, he is not cutting down trees now not only to vent his excess energy, but to prevent us from having firewood available when the next rainy day comes." If you go to accompany him now, it will certainly allow him to enjoy it, but it will delay his time. With his character, if we don't have firewood to use on a rainy day, he will brave the rain to find wood for us. We can't let him rest when it's raining. If he wants you to be with him, he'll tell you, you know?"
Tang Jing said clearly, and Liu Jie naturally understood, "Thank you, Mr. Tang." ”
Tang Jing: "You have to keep watch in the middle of the night, rest early." ”
Tang Yun cut down trees without using spiritual power. Because the spiritual power is consumed, it needs to be reabsorbed and replenished. If the spiritual power he consumes and the energy he absorbs every day is the same, then he will never be able to cultivate to the next realm.
After being struck by lightning nine times, Tang Yun had vague signs of breaking through the second layer of the Qi Gathering Realm, but after massaging Tang Jing twice, some of it was consumed, and the signs of that breakthrough disappeared again, so he wanted to save spiritual power.
Tang Yun already had some experience in cutting trees, and his own physical fitness was almost twice as high as before he cultivated immortals, so the speed of cutting trees was not slow.
He had cut down the tree before, and there was still a long part of the trunk that had not been cut off, and Tang Yun wanted to finish it today.
The next day, because he wanted to make a bamboo frame to divert water, Tang Yun didn't go anywhere, and he was busy for most of the day, and finally completed the big project of using bamboo to divert water.
Tang Jing excitedly announced: "It's worth celebrating!
Tang Jing's relatives are gone, and they can eat crabs.
Anne was the only one who was unhappy when she heard Liu Jie's translation, she didn't like to eat crabs. And Tang Yun didn't go to the beach, so she didn't have her favorite lobster.
"I hate crabs!"
At the top of the mountain, the patrol of the Gold Guarding Alliance team found the wolf smoke that Tang Jing had pointed.
There were four people in the team, originally there were five of them, but one of his companions was bitten by a snake and went back to the cave halfway to treat his wounds.
It was not easy for the remaining four people to reach the top of the mountain, they strayed into the territory of the wild boar and escaped the pursuit of the bear, and they were almost injured by the wild bee that sought revenge from the bear, so they were very embarrassed.
One of them asked, "What should I do? Do you want to go and say hello to them? They were probably the victims." "These people are all communicating in English
Another said, "Let's go back to the camp and discuss it, and if we don't go back, we will spend the night in the woods." ”
The first said, "They must have a place to live." ”
They didn't know that there were many caves on Tang Yun's side, and they were very safe caves.
"But will they let us stay?"
"We four men, what are we afraid of?"
"I think it's better to go back to camp first, leave early tomorrow, and see them at noon. We have medicines, we can trade them with them. Even if they don't accept us, we'll have plenty of time to get back to camp. ”
"I agree!"
"I agree!"
Three of the four supported the return to the camp, while the other had no choice but to follow them back.
There is river water drawn by bamboo, so you don't have to go to the river to cook rice.
Liu Jie: "Mr. Tang, it's so convenient!"
Tang Jing: "There are still two pieces of bamboo left, just to carve mahjong for you." Be careful not to cut your fingers when carving. ”
Liu Jie: "Okay. ”
Tang Jing said to Tang Yun again: "Tang Yun, do you know where there is a big water tank? I will use it to cook the bark in a few days." ”
Tang Yun: "Boss, there are a few small water tanks. ”
Tang Jing: "They all moved over, they are all useful anyway." One for crabs, one for lobsters, one for fish, and one for meat. You should have moved here a long time ago, look at the crabs in the crockpot, there are several dead!"
Tang Yun: "I'm going to move over now." ”
Tang Jing said to Anne again: "Anne, in ancient China, washing clothes was done by beating wet clothes with wooden sticks, which is very simple. English"
Annie: "Quiet, where do you put the clothes to blow after they are washed?"
Tang Jing: "Roast on the shelf next to the fire. English"
Annie: "Jing, why don't you work?"
Tang Jing: "Because I am the queen, the queen's work will be arranged by herself." English"
Tang Jing smiled, she thought that Tang Yun's previous jokes might come true.
If I can't go back, I'm the queen!
Annie: "Is Dong our king?"
Tang Jing was stunned for a moment, but did not object, "Yes." He's a king, but he listens to me. English"
After eating the crab feast, Tang Yun went to cut down the tree again, because Tang Jing said that it takes a lot of wood to cook the bark.
Tang Yun likes to cut down trees because it is simple and meaningful.
Only then does he feel that he deserves a good life. And the beauty is not only the applause with Liu Jie, but also the agreement with Tang Jing.
Tang Yun didn't deliberately slow down his cultivation speed, he was running the Spiritual Convergence Technique anytime and anywhere, when he was walking, when he was eating, and now when he was cutting down trees, and even when he was sleeping.
Cultivating immortals does not have to be pure-hearted and have few desires to sit in a cave.
The ten men of the Shoujin Alliance got together again, and they discussed the wolf smoke they found while patrolling the mountaintop today.
"They must also be victims, lighting wolf smoke to be rescued!"
"I don't think there's any need to contact them, or they'll know the secrets of the gold mine sooner or later!"
"We can observe their camps in exchange for medicines and substances. ”
"And then, if we visit them, they will come to visit us in the future, how are we going to keep the gold mine a secret?"
A white South African man named Gavin said, "Let's seal this cave, and if we have a chance to go home, we'll find a way to come back." If you can't go home, no amount of gold is useless. In this way, we can reach out to them. ”
"I think so. ”
"I agree. ”
Seven out of ten agreed to seal the cave, and continued to discuss what would happen after the cave was sealed.
"No matter what, we need to be united, and in this dangerous place, we need to rely on each other's strengths," Gavin analyzed. We don't have to keep our distance from each other......"
Will finds himself gradually losing leadership, and since the discovery of gold, this middle-aged man named Gavin suddenly rises to the top, seriously threatening his position.
"Don't forget that you're a bunch of angry gangs! Keep your distance from them and wait for rescue!"
As soon as Will's words came out, everyone reacted. That's right, everyone is no longer normal.
Gavin said angrily: "At least we have to find out the situation of the other party's camp! Even if we don't contact the other party, the other party will find out about us sooner or later! The most important thing is that we have found gold here, and maybe the other party has also found gold mines!"
"Yes, we should know what is going on in each other's camps. ”
"I agree. ”
This time, six out of ten agreed with Gavin's proposal, so they made a plan for the next day,
Gavin said: "Transactions are the bridge of communication. Trading gives us a clearer picture of them. But we can't trade drugs, drugs are our hole cards. We can't just expose our hole cards in the first place, that's stupid. ”
"Gavin, what do you say?"
Gavin: "We can trade paper towels with each other, and in this hellish place, paper towels are probably worth better than dollars." At least I'm willing to pay a thousand dollars for a pack of tissues. ”
Will immediately objected: "We only have seventeen packs of tissues left!"
Gavin: "That's right, Will, there's no difference between seventeen and fifteen! So there's nothing wrong with us taking out two packs for trading." Of course, you'll also need to bring a few packets of biscuits and lamb. ”
Gavin was right. ”
"I agree. ”
When you wake up in the morning, there is a morning glow, a sea breeze, and birdsong in the woods.
There is water to wash your face, salt water to rinse your mouth, and Liu Jie prepared crab roe fish soup.
Tang Yun felt in a trance that it was not bad to be here all the time.
However, no, because there are parents at home.
Men are homesick and can't speak.
He needed to boil the sea salt, because the pickled wild boar meat had almost exhausted the salt he had boiled for two days.
Of course, Tang Jing also got up, she had to rebuild the toilet, she had already tied the frame last night, and just lifted the frame to the river and then wrapped the rattan and leaves.
Tang Jing also wanted to enclose a fence wall of branches at the entrance of the cave, and also planned to open up a vegetable patch.
However, Tang Jing's affairs hardly need to be done by herself, and she has rich experience in directing others to do things.
What's more, she is the queen.
Liu Jie stayed in the second half of the night and needed to rest to make up for sleep, so she could only work hard for Anne.
Tang Jing: "Hooligans, you must come back at noon." ”
Tang Yun's expression was innocent, he couldn't control the state of raising the flag in the morning in a certain part.
It's just strange why he hugs Tang Jing every morning when he wakes up, and Tang Yun wonders if he is really dishonest when he sleeps. But why didn't you hug Anne?
Is it because Anne's body odor doesn't smell good?
"Got it, stay safe. Don't go far, and don't go to Octopus Lake. ”
Tang Yun carried the crockpot with a broken fishing net, then picked up the axe, and set off in stride.
Passing by the monkey fruit forest, Tang Yun found that there was less fruit on the tree. It may have been washed away by heavy rain, or it could have been eaten by monkeys.
Tang Yun performed a magic trick for the monkeys again, and a curious little monkey actually jumped off the tree to watch the show two or three meters away from him.
Because no one has come for too long, the monkeys are not afraid of humans.
Tang Yun didn't think about hurting them, he just thought it was fun to perform so-called magic tricks for them.
After the magic show, leaving four monkey fruits, Tang Yun picked up his things and left. The little monkey followed him a few steps when he was stopped by a group of big monkeys in the tree.
"I wonder if monkeys eat fish or not?"
Tang Yun smiled and muttered to himself.
Wild boars, dogs, bears, and wild bees are still busy with their daily tasks. Tang Yun suddenly thought of a question, since there are bees and honey, there should be flowers, right?
"Could it be the monkey's fruit that blooms? But now there are only fruits and no flowers? There must be flowers somewhere else. ”
Tang Yun collected dead branches and grass as he walked, as well as branches that had been broken by heavy rain and wind.
With no outsiders present, Tang Yun can rest assured that he can use the space ring to pack things without fear of being seen.
When I arrived at the beach, I first put the dead branches and grass in the sun to dry, and after the heavy rain, it was this trouble, and there was no dry firewood.
"Collect it in advance in the future. ”
Only a corner of the three stones was exposed when buried by the sand, and Tang Yun had to dig out the stones and find a place to put them again, and then put the crockpot on it.
There were some debris floating in the bay, and in addition to the branches, Tang Yun actually saw the drink bottle! He rowed the hovercraft to fish out everything and prepare to burn it.
Wait for the dry grass to dry, light a fire and boil salt.
