I opened my eyes, it was already the next morning, Xiaolu next to me was still asleep, it seems that we were too tired yesterday, this sleep is really fragrant, the fire not far away is still burning, I looked around, I didn't see Liu Yifan, I got up, combed my loose hair, and walked towards the outside of the cave.

Walked to the entrance of the cave and looked down, and found Liu Yifan, who was climbing up along the vines, only to see that he didn't know that he had found a ceramic jar from there, filled with water, and when he got to the entrance of the cave, I grabbed his hand and pulled him up.

"Brother Liu, you didn't sleep last night, did you?" I asked.

"I'm sleeping, it's just not as long as you, it's water, wait for you and Xiaolu to drink something, I'll roast some meat, and we'll continue to walk into the mountains after eating." After speaking, Liu Yifan put the water in my hand and sat down by the fire to barbecue.

Xiao Lu woke up when she heard our conversation, and sat up to see the ceramic jar in my hand, which was very puzzled.

"Sister Xiao Qin, where did the jar in your hand come from?"

"Brother Liu got it back. ”

"Not far away there is a thatched hut left by a hunter, which I found in the morning when I went to the woods. Without waiting for Xiaolu to ask him, Liu Yifan took the initiative to confess.

After eating the barbecue and drinking some water, we decided to continue walking towards the mountains and forests, Liu Yifan roasted all the remaining raw meat slices as dry food, and after I packed up the deer skin and water jug underground, the three of us went down the cave and walked towards the dense mountain forest.

It took nearly a day for us to climb the whole mountain, and in the evening the three of us came to a relatively gentle cypress forest at the foot of the mountain, on the other side of the forest is a higher mountain, Liu Yifan means that we will go to the high mountain to find a place close to the water source, his body needs to be meditated and conditioned for half a month, there are a lot of herbs that are good for the body in the mountain, and there are many animals, and the place near the water is convenient for us to live, and the second is to hunt animals near the water source to satisfy hunger.

When it was almost dark, we found a place to spend the night, in the cypress forest, a huge rock fell from the mountain I don't know how many years ago, and rolled here to be blocked by a huge stone on the surface, forming a natural "in" shaped rock tent.

Like yesterday, Liu Yifan took the initiative to take on the work of watching the night at night, although I proposed to watch the night with him alone, Xiaolu also wanted to help watch the night, but this Liu handsome brother resolutely disagreed, saying that when he got to the mountain, he found a good place to live, he recuperated and needed us to pick herbs for him, and now he is still watching the night to deal with it.

After eating a few pieces of venison and some wild fruits collected along the road during the day, Xiaolu and I lay on the deerskin on the ground, one end of the stone shed was blocked by Liu Yifan and I moved a few stones, Liu Yifan sat near the other exit, I knew that in this ancient mountain forest everywhere there are dangers, this era of deep mountains in the fierce beasts like clouds, poisonous snakes everywhere.

Tonight's position is much more dangerous than yesterday's cave, listening to the strange sounds in the forest outside, I remembered all kinds of terrifying pictures, and couldn't help hugging Xiao Lu next to me, Xiao Lu This girl is quite bold, and it didn't take long for her to fall asleep, I really want to talk to Liu Shuai, but I really can't disturb him when he sits with his eyes closed.

In this way, I fell asleep and woke up one night, and had several nightmares, one of which I dreamed that my mother and I suddenly encountered a group of Japanese devil soldiers on the beach, my mother and I ran away desperately, fled to a big boat, saw several machine guns, I took the gun and shot, but I saw that the bullets flew out, but I couldn't hit a Japanese soldier, and a large group of devils rushed to the boat, and my mother didn't know where to run, I was in a hurry, and screamed.

"Ahh

I woke up suddenly, opened my eyes, and found Liu Yifan squatting next to me.

"Miss Qin, it's a nightmare, don't be afraid, it'll be fine soon. He was smiling, he looked really handsome, my heart was still beating, seeing this handsome guy next to him, the sense of security doubled, and suddenly I wanted to be held in his arms, but this thought passed in a flash. I feel that my face is a little hot, I guess it is red, I am afraid of being seen by him, so I hurriedly turned around and buried my face behind Xiaolu, thinking that I have seen a lot of male models in clothing in the company before, and I have not been fascinated by any handsome guys.

Liu Yifan saw me turn around and stood up and walked aside, the night wind poured in from the crack in the rock, although the fire was still burning, but the side without fire still felt cold, I curled up, close to Xiaolu, at this moment I felt like an abandoned orphan, an inexplicable loneliness and sadness, maybe I missed my mother too much, the mother in the dream was so close to me, but when I opened my eyes, I had to face the rules of survival in this era.

The long night has been so long.

In the morning, I was woken up by Xiaolu, rubbed my eyes, and felt that I hadn't remembered the thought yet, but a gust of fragrant fragrance poured directly into all my nerves, I got up, and saw Liu Yifan on the fire wearing a long white strip of meat with a sword baking, and the meat was roasted by the fire.

What kind of meat is this?

I thought, wouldn't Liu Yifan go to the forest early in the morning to catch any animals?

After seeing me get up, Xiaolu handed me a large handful of wild fruits, I ate a few randomly, my eyes were still staring at the meat, suddenly my stomach hurt darkly, I quickly got up and walked out of this rock shed, I wanted to find a place to make it convenient, I didn't think that I walked out a few steps and found a bloody snakeskin on the ground!

"Ahh

I hugged Xiaolu:

"There's a big snake out there, Xiaolu, don't you see it?"

Xiao Lu saw that I was so flustered, but she laughed inexplicably, and Liu Yifan on the side was also secretly happy.

I don't understand what these two people are laughing at, it's normal for girls to be afraid of snakes, is it true that people in ancient times were not afraid of snakes?

"Sister Qin, the snake is dead, it's just a snake skin, and the snake meat Brother Liu is roasting, hehe. ”

Yes! I see, I was still thinking about what kind of meat Liu Yifan roasted just now, ah, snake meat, I haven't eaten it yet, I think I went to my second aunt's house as a guest when I was in the third year of junior high school, and there was a pot of white soup on the table when I ate, there was a black chicken in it, and several pieces of white meat, at that time my uncle said that this soup was called dragon and phoenix soup, made of snakes and chickens, my aunt and mother told me to eat a little, saying that it was a very good thing, I was afraid of snakes since I was a child, and I saw the white snake meat that my mother put in my bowl, and smelled a fishy smell, thinking of the terrifying appearance of snakes, for fear that the snake was still wriggling in my stomach, and I resolutely refused to eat, but now I think that this Liu Yifan roasted this snake meat, why does it smell so fragrant?

"Miss Qin, snake meat is a good thing, I killed several last night, this cauliflower snake is non-poisonous, I threw those snakes away, I didn't expect there to be so many snakes in this mountain." ”

Good thing it wasn't my vigil at night!

If it were true that I had kept vigil, I would have been scared to death by a few snakes, not to mention other animals, it seems that my courage is not ordinarily small, and I have to change it if I want to live a good life in this era.

At the very least, I've got to be bold!

Xiaolu repeatedly asked me to eat some roasted snake meat, but I just felt that I couldn't pass this level in my heart, while I made myself bold, and on the other hand, I resisted what I had been afraid of, I finally understood why Liu Yifan didn't let me go down to help Uncle Cheng in the carriage, he said that I didn't have a murderous aura, indeed, I really didn't have a murderous aura.

Think about your own situation, this era is not comparable to the sky of the new China and the new society, I can't see the police uncle, and there is no 110 for me to call at any time, not to mention that we are being hunted down by the imperial court in front of us, and the enemy's strength is still higher than ours, what should I do if I want to meet those Aquila gang murderers again?

Thinking of this, I grabbed the snake meat handed over by Xiaolu, stuffed it into my mouth without looking at it, and chewed it in a big mouthful, at this time I forgot what the snake meat tasted like, but I just mustered up the courage to eat several in one go, and when I came to my senses, I held the ceramic jar and drank a few sips of water, my eyes showed a look of not cutting, don't you just eat snake meat, hum, you won't die if you eat it!

Xiaolu didn't notice this subtle change in me, and ate snake meat with relish on the side, but Liu Yifan next to the fire seemed to see through my thoughts, and a smile of approval appeared on his face.

When everything was cleaned up, the three of us continued to climb towards the highest mountain.

Along the way, the mountain road was difficult and dangerous, and I encountered several poisonous snakes whose names could not be named, perhaps because I had eaten snake meat, but I was not afraid of snakes, and one of the snakes was picked away by me with a wooden stick in my hand.

Today's weather is no longer sunny, from morning to afternoon the sky is dark, the wind is blowing violently from time to time, it looks like it is going to rain, fortunately the rain has not fallen, Liu Yifan let us speed up the pace of climbing the mountain, we have to find a good place to shelter from the rain before the rain, if the location is well chosen, we will no longer go to the mountain, we will settle down there.

The wind blows cool, Xiao Lu and I are sweating profusely, Xiao Lu has no martial arts foundation, it looks like he is tired, he doesn't stop, according to my estimate of about 4 o'clock in the afternoon, we climbed to the halfway point of the mountain, a stream meanders through the mountain, a few of us are busy washing our faces in the stream, drink a few sips, about 150 meters away from this stream, we walked to a place where there are a lot of huge rocks and stopped, Liu Yifan carefully looked at the distribution of the rocks, and finally found a suitable position in front of the largest stone。

I saw a few big stones irregularly around this big stone, forming a natural tent-shaped stone nest, the stone nest is more than one meter high from the ground, the general small animals can't climb up, this place snakes don't like it, it seems to be a good wild dwelling.

"Xiao Qin, you and Xiao Lu go to the forest to find some dead wood and hay, and find as much as you can while it's not raining, I have to cut some wood and set up this place simply. After Liu Yifan finished speaking, he put the deerskin in his hand away from the stone nest, took out his sword and went into the forest to cut down trees.

I laughed with Xiaolu and went into the forest, there are the most dry wood and hay in the mountains and forests, and there is no need to look for it at all, you can kick a bunch of dry wood with any kick.

It didn't take long for Xiaolu and I to find a lot of dry wood and hay and put them into this stone nest, and looked at this stone nest, although it was not as big as the cave we lived in the night before, but it was slightly wider than the cave, and the back was against the largest stone, and there were huge stones on both sides and the top, as long as the exposed gap was blocked with wood and stone, and then a wooden door was set up in front of the door, the conditions were much better than the cave.

Find good dry materials, Xiaolu and I were busy Liu Yifan moved the cut wood to the side of the stone, after cutting the wood, Liu Handsome Brother was busy cutting the wood into many sections with a sword according to the size of the stone nest, and then plugged the wood respectively by the innermost few gaps, as I expected, he made a thick wooden door at the door, this wooden door is estimated to have dozens of catties, and the average animal is estimated to be unable to hit it, after reinforcing the stone nest, Liu Yifan selected some longer blades of grass from the dry grass, and did not make much effort to compile a big grass cover, put it on the top of the stone and cover it, with this grass cover, it is not afraid of rain and rain pouring in from the cracks in the stone。

I really admire this handsome guy, I didn't expect this guy's ability to survive in the wild is so strong, if it is estimated to be more powerful than those special forces in modern times, I don't know where it goes.

It was almost dark after doing this, so Xiao Lu put a few stones in the middle, and a fire was lit in the stones, and I chose some softer dead grass to make two beds on both sides of the fire, thinking that it would be comfortable to sleep on the grass in Doha.

Looking at the dry food, there was not much venison left, only enough for the three of us to eat two meals, and there were still some wild fruits, not much, it seems that we will have to find food tomorrow.

Nothing happened all night, but I ate some venison and wild fruits, and lay down on the thick soft withered grass, covered with deerskins, and the whole stone nest roasted by the fire beside me was warm, and the whole body was warm.

At this time, it was raining outside.

The autumn rain is dripping, and on rainy nights, the mountains and forests seem to be particularly quiet, and only the rustling rain can be heard in all directions, and there are many strange sounds of animals.

"That's right, Miss Qin, let's stay here, I have to meditate and recuperate my internal injuries from tomorrow, it's going to be a lot of hard work for you, go to bed early, there should be no problem tonight, no one needs to watch the night." ”

Liu Yifan on the side suddenly came out with this paragraph, I pulled back from listening to the rain's thoughts, he originally said it very lightly, but in this quiet environment, he woke up Xiao Lu, who was already asleep.

"Sleep, Xiaolu, it's okay. I hugged Xiao Lu, gently patted her forehead, I came to this era, and Xiao Lu got along with me I have always treated her as my own sister, in this world, except for love is family affection, although I came to this strange era, fortunately let me meet these sisters around me.

I didn't answer Liu Yifan's words, I closed my eyes, and I forced myself not to miss my parents anymore, hugging Xiaolu, dragging my tired body, and sleeping well.
