Chapter 19 An Unexpected Encounter
God doesn't always make everything go your way. The second rain in June was also very sudden. It was early in the morning on the second day Zhang Tie had just left the tree castle. At four or five o'clock in the morning, the sky was rolling The sound of thunder shook Zhang Tie awake from his sleeping bag, and before Zhang Tie could put the sleeping bag away completely, the pouring rain began to fall.
In the Wild Wolf Valley, there are not always caves and tree holes for you to inhabit. Zhang Tie’s current location is about fifteen kilometers away from the Wild Wolf Castle. Pile of rocks, Zhang Tie slept in the pile of rocks last night. Among the two stones in this pile of rocks, there is a place on a slightly higher terrain, which is barely suitable for sleeping people. Zhang Tie cut a bunch of weeds with his sword and spread them on the ground, and cut a few bushes with lush branches and placed them on the two stones. In the gap above the stone, let it cover a little wind, and finally sprinkle a small circle of powder to prevent snakes and insects on the surrounding ground, then put the sleeping bag on the grass, and fell asleep.
Although he was lying on the ground, Zhang Tie did not fall asleep all night. Although the powder could prevent snakes and insects, it could not prevent wild wolves and other ferocious carnivores. Zhang Tie did not want to become a wild beast while he was asleep. Zhang Tie, who was camping alone in the wild for the first time, finally experienced what it was like to be a solo traveler. He slept in the wild until midnight, not to mention the cold, but those strange sounds in the surrounding environment often Zhang Tie overreacted, drawing his sword and jumping up, thinking that some ferocious beast was quietly approaching, making him nervous, which was a huge drain on his mental and physical strength. When he was working in Tang De’s grocery store, Zhang Tie learned from some pioneers that there is a kind of mutated army ant feces that can deter most beasts. This kind of feces can only be obtained in the abandoned nests of army ants. ,so. Sometimes it's useless to know, God just can't make something happen to appear in front of you when you need it, but it may, on the contrary, suddenly start to come to you while you are sleeping in the open air. heavy rain.
Under the circumstances last night, Zhang Tie, who regarded the Black Iron Fort as his greatest secret, certainly would not have swaggered in and out of the Black Iron Fort in the wilderness, so the tree on the small tree in the Black Iron Fort The second iron tire fruit is still hanging up and down.
"Damn it!" Before the sleeping bag was completely put into the rucksack, raindrops were already falling on Zhang Tie's face. Zhang Tie could only hurry up and move. As soon as he put the sleeping bag in, it started to rain heavily. By the time Zhang Tie put on his poncho, his clothes were half wet. Zhang Tie, who put on his poncho, quickly ran down to the edge of a distant cliff. After a few steps, he remembered the place where his sword was still sleeping. He had kept the sword in his hand last night. It was still dark now, so he almost forgot it just now. Zhang Tie ran back to pick up the sword, and finally, like a hair-shedding mouse being chased by raindrops, he rushed towards the place where he could shelter from the rain.
The cliff over there that can shelter from the rain is about one kilometer away from Zhang Tie, and the road in the valley is not very easy to walk. Zhang Tie has been running in the heavy rain for about five minutes before reaching that place. When we got to the bottom of the cliff over there, half of Zhang Tie's pants and half of his clothes were almost soaked.
While under the cliff helplessly looking at the dark sky to avoid the rain,
Zhang Tie took out some dried meat from his body to replenish his strength. When he came out this time, Zhang Tie only brought about five kilograms of dried meat and other food. Zhang Tie gave it to Pandora and Alice. Zhang Tie also wanted to see if he had the ability to complete the Lone Walker Trial.
You can shelter from the rain under the cliff, but the rain powder in the air will still blow on people's faces with the wind, itching, just like Beverly brushing her face with her eyelashes playfully, thinking of it Beverly, Zhang Tie thought of Alice and Pandora again, and thought of the night when he lost his first kiss. He thought of the little goldfish that the three girls got into his mouth and the unexpected kiss from Pandora. That night, it was actually Pandora who moved Zhang Tie the most.
Before he knew it, the disobedient guy under Zhang Tie was as hard as iron.
I don't know how they live today? In the dark rain and sky, Zhang Tie looked in the direction of Wild Wolf Castle. Zhang Tie didn't know whether his thoughts for them were desire or love, or there was no difference between the two. Well, desire is good, it’s just something made up by those boring literati and young ladies. I hope they live well, I hope they are happy, I don’t want to see them suffer any harm, I want to treat them well, and at the same time There is also an urge and desire to do something "terrible and disgusting" to them. This is my true feelings for them, what do you call it.
This rain was heavy, and it had been raining for four or five hours before dawn before it gradually subsided. The rainwater gathered in the valley rushed to the river in the valley along with the creeks and ravines. After several hours of heavy rain, The river water in the valley swelled a lot, and then the muddy river water mixed with some dead branches and leaves rushed downstream. The roads in the valley became muddy everywhere, and some places were still slippery, with small puddles everywhere.
The rain had just subsided a little. Seeing that the sky had brightened, Zhang Tie, who had stood under the cliff for two hours and squatted for two hours, immediately ran out wearing a rain cape. It's thick, it doesn't mean to disperse at all, and I don't know when the rain will fall. Before the heavier rain comes, Zhang Tie is eager to find a dry place for himself to stay tonight, preferably Caves, tree holes like the base of the tree house, are too rare.
After walking in the rain for more than an hour, when the drizzle turned into drizzle, and the drizzle gradually turned into heavy rain, Zhang Tie finally found a mountain at the foot of a mountain three kilometers away from the place where he took shelter from the rain. A hole, an abandoned mine, it seems that someone tried to dig a mine in this hole at the beginning, but the person who dug the mine tried to dig in less than ten meters, only opened a gap, and found that there were no them here What I wanted, so I stopped, this cave is very shallow, as long as you stand outside the cave, you can see the whole cave at a glance, it is not hidden, but for Zhang Tie who is looking for a place to stay in the rain. This cave is nothing less than a paradise that suddenly appeared.
When Zhang Tie came to this cave, he also found that someone seemed to have lived in the cave. There were still some scattered dry firewood and hay in the cave, and there were traces of a pile of black charcoal ash that had been burned on the ground. Looking at those Dry firewood, Zhang Tie was immediately overjoyed, he never thought that one day he would be so happy when he saw a little firewood.
He took off his poncho and put it on a stone in the cave to dry, and then found a dry place to put down his bundle and luggage. Finally, place the spear pouch in a convenient place near the entrance of the hole. Zhang Tie took out a flint lighter from his body, found a pile of hay and dry firewood, and after a while, a pile of warm firewood rose in the hole. In the light of the fire, water vapor began to emit from Zhang Tie's already damp clothes and trousers.
Seeing the heavy rain pouring down again outside the cave, Zhang Tie's heart was filled with a feeling called happiness. Sometimes, happiness comes as simple as that - when it's raining outside, you won't be drenched. There is still a pile of fire to cook, this is happiness.
Zhang Tie found another piece of dried milk from his food and roasted it on the fire. After a while, the whole cave began to smell of dried milk.
It would be great if only one of Pandora and the others was by his side at this time. Zhang Tie suddenly had a "beastly" thought in his heart. In this kind of weather, in this kind of deserted wild cave, there is nothing to do except warming up. Look at the rain, everyone can still have a lot of time left to do other meaningful things, hehehehe...
Just when Zhang Tie's mind was churning with various strange thoughts. A person wearing a yellow-green poncho rushed into the cave from the outside under a gust of wind and rain. When this person rushed in from the outside, neither he nor Zhang Tie seemed to expect to meet him in this cave. Others, and then the two people who looked at each other were slightly taken aback. The first reaction when suddenly meeting a stranger in the wild was that Zhang Tie was surprisingly similar to that person, and Zhang Tie grabbed his long sword in one go. The man flicked his poncho, and an arrow was already on the bowstring of his long bow. Zhang Tie's sword was not out of its sheath, and the man's long bow was not drawn either. The arrow pointed to the ground, and the two stared at each other look at.
Seeing that person's longbow and that person's age, Zhang Tie suddenly thought of a name, "You are... Bruce?"
The man froze for a moment, and the slightly nervous expression on his face suddenly relaxed, but he didn't put away the bow and arrow in his hand, "You are also a probationary student!"
"Of course, otherwise how would I have heard of your name, Bruce the Archer, you are very famous in Wild Wolf Castle!" Zhang Tie laughed and put the long sword in his hand to his feet. Bruce also let out a sigh of relief, and put away the longbow in his hand.
"How will you be here?"
The two asked each other the same question at the same time, then looked at each other, and found that the other was scratching their heads in embarrassment just like themselves, and then the two guys laughed together, and the atmosphere in the cave completely relaxed .
"Me, I'm going out to hunt down two wolves, and I'll try to see if I can challenge the Lone Walker Trial!" Seeing that Bruce seemed a bit introverted, Zhang Tie opened his mouth first, and told the truth without hesitation After coming out, there is nothing to hide about this in itself, Zhang Tie estimated that the news about himself in Wild Wolf Castle is now spreading everywhere, "What about you!"
"The hay and firewood in this cave were originally prepared for myself...
"Okay, then this time I'll be yours, Nuo, this is for you, it's my rent..." Zhang Tie handed the piece of dry milk he baked to Bruce...
Seeing Zhang Tie's hand stretched out naturally, Bruce hesitated for a while, and finally took the piece of fragrant dried milk that had been baked into golden brown, "Thank you, but do you have any more after I eat it..."
"Don't worry, I still have..." As he said that, Zhang Tie took out another piece of dried milk from his bag, and continued to bake it on the fire with a small wooden stick, until he saw that Zhang Tie really took it out again. After taking a piece of dried milk, Bruce began to eat the dried milk in his hand...
This guy is a little introverted, but he seems to be a nice guy! Zhang Tie, who noticed such a detail, said something to himself.
"Can you tell me about the two wolves you want to kill, maybe I can help you!" Bruce, who had been eating Zhang Tie's milk in silence, said seriously after eating the milk.
So Zhang Tie told the story of himself and those wolves without any concealment, including the first time he met those wolves who almost died, and those wolves almost hurt Pandora and the other three two days ago. Said everything about women.
"Does one of the two wolves you're talking about have a ring of brown-red fur around its neck, and one ear seems to be a little mutilated?" Bruce thought for a while, and then asked.
"Have you seen those two beasts?"
"Just yesterday, I saw them once. At that time, the two wolves walked by less than a few tens of meters away from me. I was on a tree and wanted to hunt a giant wolf. Because I was afraid of scaring the snake, I let the two wolves pass by. A wolf slipped away from me. I kept watching from the tree, and I just saw the two wolves go behind a hillside in the distance and never appeared again. I guess the old den of the two wolves may be in the Over there on that hillside..."
Zhang Tie is very happy... (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point (m) to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile phone users, please go to m to read.)
