Chapter 5 Return
Li Ming suddenly woke up from his sleep and suddenly sat up. A very strange sound came from his ears. It seemed that he had heard it somewhere, but it seemed very strange, like a dragon's roar, and like a tiger's roar. He shook his dizzy head and opened the door. The heavy rain and strong wind blew over his face. Li Ming's whole body was soaked on the spot. Two other sleeping people in the room were also awakened. It was already dawn, and Li Ming, standing in the rain, heard this strange cry more and more.
The closer and closer, the louder it became. Li Ming shivered suddenly and began to understand what the sound was. He turned his head and shouted loudly into the house: "Get up quickly!! The mountain torrent is coming! Get up quickly." The two people in the house were confused and suddenly bounced up when they heard this and rushed outside the house. At this time, Li Ming had already rushed to another wooden house and was about to smash the door, but the mountain torrent that was more than one person high hit the face. In a blink of an eye, the wooden house had been turned over by the flood and rushed downstream along the flood.
Li Ming struggled in the surging flood, and the cold flood kept pouring into his mouth and nose. Li Ming once again felt that the god of death was so close to him.
Suddenly, the surging flood swept Li Ming up and threw it hard on a huge rock on the shore, causing his desolate speed to suddenly stagnate. The water in Li Ming's lungs was actually sprayed out by the collision. Li Ming, who was struggling on the verge of death, took advantage of the slowdown and reached out to grab an old vine hanging on the shore.
The roaring flood drifted Li Ming's body hanging in the water, and again and again smashed him hard on the stones on the shore. The huge impact force made him hold Lao Teng's hand tightly and slide down little by little. The instinct of survival made him pull Lao Teng tightly, and bright red blood splashes emerge from the place where his hands grabbed him.
Li Ming's hand slowly slid to the end of the old vine. Just when he was desperate again, a huge dead tree rushed down the upstream and hit Li Ming's waist hard. Li Ming endured the severe pain, raised his feet and kicked it on the dead tree, and tied his hands around the old vine, making the old vine tightly on Li Ming's hand. Suddenly, a piercing pain came from his hand, but at this time he didn't care about so much and let the flood throw his body around.
I don't know how long it took, the sky slowly cleared up, and the fierce flood gradually became gentle. The flood came and went quickly. In a few hours, the flood that rushed across the valley turned into a weak stream. The old vine pulled by Li Ming was broken even after he could not bear the weight. Li Ming fell from the hillside and rolled into the stream. The cold stream water made Li Ming gradually wake up from the coma, and his body slowly recovered his consciousness. The pain in his body made him moan, and his hands were covered in blood and blood...
The air in the forest was particularly fresh after the rain, and the birds began to sing in the forest again. It seemed that nothing had happened just now, and everything showed vitality before the flood.
Li Ming slowly climbed up from the stream, the sun had already hidden behind the ridge, and another night was coming.
Li Ming no longer had the strength to climb forward. He was isolated and helpless and could only lie quietly on the ground waiting for the arrival of death.
He held Li Ming's shoulder with his hands and slowly turned him over. Li Ming broke away his eyes, and what caught his eye was Li Chaoyang's surprise face. Li Ming stretched out his hands and hugged Li Chaoyang tightly, and the two survivors burst into tears.
It turned out that Li Chaoyang hugged a piece of wood tightly when the mountain torrent arrived, and was washed down by the flood as the wood was washed down. Later, because the wood was blocked by a large stone standing in the middle of the river, Li Chaoyang climbed up the big stone and waited until the flood receded. He was not injured much except being hungry and tired, so he was able to find Li Ming upstream along the stream.
Li Chaoyang staggered into the woods with Li Ming. After this mountain torrent, the two of them dared to spend the night next to the stream.
Walking into the woods, the two were stunned by the scene in front of them. On the ground covered with thick leaves, white mushrooms were grown at some point. Looking around, under the big tree, the shrubs covered them with a layer. The two screamed happily and rushed over, regardless of the strange smell of the mushrooms, grabbed the mushrooms and stuffed them into their mouths.
It became dark and the two people, whose stomachs were filled with mushrooms, were lying quietly on the ground. The fatigue and fatigue surged into their hearts. Before they knew it, both of them fell asleep.
It was noon the next day when Li Ming woke up. Li Chaoyang had already gotten up early and picked all the nearby mushrooms. Now it was spread in the sun. Li Ming was covered in wounds and his hands were covered in blood scabs. He felt pain when he moved a little. He had to watch Li Chaoyang busy around alone.
A week passed in a blink of an eye, and Li Ming's injuries were recovering day by day. In the past two days, they could barely help Li Chaoyang do some light work. They found a low old tree nearby and built a small nest on the branches of the old tree. The two of them squeezed into the nest at night, and at least felt a little safe in their hearts. Fortunately, the machete that Li Chaoyang did not lose in the flood, allowing the two of them to easily build a small nest.
The mushrooms dried by Li Chaoyang a few days ago have almost eaten. Today, the two went to the nearby forest to try their luck. Although there are many birds, squirrels, hares and other animals in the forest, they can't do anything about it unless God has the eyes to let a hare kill him in front of them.
Li Chaoyang was driving the road in front, and Li Ming followed him closely. There were bushes in the dense forest. The two of them were not afraid of beasts such as tigers and bears. But there were too many snakes in the forest, and they would encounter one by accident. Fortunately, the situation did not happen like the last time.
Li Chaoyang, who was leading the way in front, suddenly stopped Li Ming from moving forward, and was listening to something. A rustling sound came from the bushes in front, as if they were coming in the direction of them. Both of them were shocked and sweated: Don't be a group of snakes again. The two hurriedly retreated for a distance, revealing a path leading out of the front.
The rustling sound was getting closer and closer. A huge python emerged from the bushes in front and rushed towards Li Ming and the others.
Li Chaoyang pushed Li Ming away, raised his machete and chopped towards the python.
The knife slashed the python, but it was bounced back by thick scales. The python was wrapped around Li Chaoyang's arm, and the snake's tail wrapped around Li Chaoyang's body. Li Ming rushed up and grabbed the machete from Li Chaoyang's hand. It was a knife that shone on the snake's head. The blade was deeply embedded in the snake's head. Before Li Ming could pull out the knife, the python gave up Li Chaoyang's arm and wrapped it around Li Ming's neck. Li Ming was immediately wrapped up and his face was red and he had difficulty breathing. In an emergency, Li Ming
Seeing a white area under the snake's neck without scales, this place was right next to Li Ming's mouth. Li Ming opened his mouth without thinking and bit it. The snake's body trembled for a moment. Li Ming and Li Chaoyang were about to escape from it. Li Ming picked up the machete and chased the place where the python escaped. He took a knife and fell, and another knife was cut on the python's head. This knife happened to be in the crack of the knife just now, and cut off half of the python's head on the spot.
After a long time, the two of them took off the python's skin. Looking at the bloody pile of snake meat in front of them, no one had the courage to take the first bite.
Li Ming sat down in front of the snake meat and used a knife to peel off the snake meat piece by piece. Li Chaoyang put the slices of snake meat in a cool and ventilated place to spread it. The food for the next few days will depend on this pile of snake meat.
Li Ming picked up a piece of snake meat and smiled at Li Chaoyang: "It's good to have a fire, we can eat roasted snake meat."
Li Chaoyang smiled bitterly. Where can I find fire now? In the past few days, the two of them have thought about ways to find fire. At first, they thought of drilling wood to make fire, but can they find dry wood in this wet jungle? As a result, Li Chaoyang rubbed the wooden stick for a day but didn't get a trace of smoke. Later, he thought of using stone to make fire, but in the end he failed. The delicious snake meat was placed but there was no fire, which was really funny.
Li Ming poked his head out of the shack, looked under the tree, turned around and helped Li Chaoyang down the tree. It was almost time to get together. The two of them planned to go upstream a few days ago to find the previous base, but they didn't expect that Li Chaoyang was bitten by a red snake two days ago. If Li Ming hadn't sucked out the poisonous blood in time, Li Ming would have lost his last partner now.
Li Ming carried a bunch of dried snake meat and mushrooms on his back, and helped Li Chaoyang walk upstream along the stream.
When the two found their original base, the people who were receiving them had been waiting for a day, and the people from other groups were gathered here. When they came, there were 27 people. Now, only Li Ming and the others were left in the first group. The situation in the second group was better, and there were only four people left, but the third group was the hungry Wang Long.
