On the second day after entering the mountains, it started to drizzle, and the temperature dropped sharply in the mountains.
Su Yining took a breath and rubbed his fingers that were numb from the cold: "Let's find a place to take shelter from the rain first, it's really too cold."
Several people hid under a big tree, waiting for the explorers to return.
Sun Xingzhe, who had gone to explore the road ahead, rushed back and wiped the rain off his face: "Princess, there is a tree hole in front of you that you can take shelter for temporarily."
"Let's go!" Su Yining took the lead and quickly cut through the thorns with his hands. Over time, the flesh and blood in the palm of his hand stuck to the cloth, and he became numb and could not feel the pain.
Several grown men couldn't help but admire her. A delicate girl did not say a word of hardship or tiredness in this barren mountain, just for this living dead husband.
In their eyes, they felt that she was a very good woman and a rare infatuated woman. How could she be like this if she didn't really love her husband.
Sometimes they all think that it would not be a pity even if this prince dies, at least someone has worked hard and worked hard for him.
Ten minutes later, they hid in the tree hole. This old tree had lived for who knows how many years, and the middle of the tree was already empty. The thousand-year-old tree could be regarded as sheltering a living being.
When they first entered the tree hole, they found that there were some very small animals inside, also escaping from the heavy rain. When they saw them suddenly running into the rain with a "swish".
"It's dry here, and there's no smell. There shouldn't be any big wild animals coming or going. We can stay here for a while and have something to eat." Sun Xingzhe hurriedly took off his coat and began to wring the rainwater from his clothes.
It was difficult to find dry firewood on a rainy day, so I could only break off some old bark from an ancient tree to use as fire. When the fire was lit, the whole space seemed to be warmer.
"Princess, please change your clothes quickly. We brothers will go outside and guard you." Tang San and the other three brothers were afraid of another wild beast, so they searched around in the heavy rain. Su Yining also found a change of clothes from the animal skin bag.
The tree hole is very big, and there are a lot of dead leaves and branches inside. I simply built a clothes drying rack and grilled it by the campfire.
"Han Yunshen, you can't be sick, drink some water quickly." Worried that he would get sick and there was no one around now, she hurriedly took out a bowl of flu prevention medicine from the space and poured it into him, and also poured a lot of well water.
There was some porridge and water in the bamboo tube she carried with her, and she drank it too. One thing she didn't do well was Han Yunshen's rations.
The porridge and water in the bamboo tube would be eaten over time. She wanted to find an opportunity to separate from them.
"Brother Sun, didn't you think of bringing a pot with you when you came out?" Su Yining held the campfire, staring at the hard dried meat in his hands, thinking how nice it would be to have a pot at this time.
"Well, Princess, you didn't say anything..." Although Sun Xingzhe and the others travel around the world, they don't go into the mountains often. Most of the time they eat and drink in restaurants, or work hard at the dock to earn some hard money.
.
Tang San also felt that the princess was right. Why didn't the second child bring a pot?
"Second brother, if you bring a pot, we can drink broth..." Sha Wuwu said in a rough voice while chewing the dried meat hard.
Several people looked at each other, staring at their dried meat soaked by the rain and instantly lost their smell.
"Brother Tang, come and help me." Su Yining is not worried about the pot or not, but her palms are almost rotten and need to be disinfected.
She took off a bamboo tube from her body and handed it to the other party: "Come on." She bit a piece of handkerchief in her mouth.
"Princess, this is strong wine..." They have been wearing paint all year round, so they naturally know what it feels like to pour strong wine on a wound, and he hesitated for a moment.
"Stop the ink stains, hurry up!" The strong alcohol fell on the wound, and instantly all the muscles in her body tensed and trembled. The burning pain made her tremble involuntarily.
"Hiss..." A hissing sound reached Han Yunshen's ears.
He didn't know what kind of feeling this was. If he could describe it clearly, it was pain, and his heart twitched.
This feeling is different from the secret guard's feeling of being hurt for him. It's very strange and subtle...
She tore off the strip of cloth from her palm and took away a piece of flesh. The wounds caused by the alcohol were a little white, and her fingers were still trembling uncontrollably.
Fortunately, she was well prepared. She quickly sprinkled the golden sore medicine on the pain and jumped up. She hugged her hands and danced in the tree hole.
"Let me tell you, this golden sore medicine is too painful, and Li Chuan is too unreliable!!!"
Her posture is very funny, but none of the men in this tree hole can laugh...
"Hiss, he's going to beat him up when I see him! It hurts me so much." After Su Yining took out a clean bandage and quickly wrapped it on, the pain subsided little by little, but the burning sting was still lingering in his heart.
"Third brother, pick up all the dead leaves and branches in the tree hole. Don't put out the bonfire at night. I don't know what will appear when it rains."
They don't know much about things in the woods, but they still know that fire can ward off wild beasts.
Su Yining held Han Yun in her arms and slept soundly at night. The day's journey had consumed a lot of her physical and energy, and her eyes began to doze off after she rested.
"Brother Tang, I'm going to sleep for a while. You guys call me when the shift changes later..." I'm afraid that I might be besieged by wild beasts again, so I have to have someone on duty this time to finish the job.
The rain was falling heavily, and the raindrops connected together like an invisible net, surrounding them and the top predator.
In the heavy rain, the wild boar king whose throat was cut was eaten by the wolves that appeared. Suddenly the wolves fled in all directions, and several giant pythons appeared at some unknown time.
Before dawn, heavy fog began to rise in the mountains and forests, and everything was covered in white, looking like a trap.
"Hey, brother, do you smell anything?"
Suddenly Sha Wuwu stood up, holding a nine-ring knife in his hand, and his expression became nervous.
This sound woke everyone up. Su Yining rubbed her sore eyes and sat up. She also smelled a heavy fishy smell mixed with earth.
"It smells fishy, a bit like earth but not quite like it." This shocked her. She had heard that snakes had this smell before.
Along the way, they also encountered venomous snakes, but since they had medicinal powder on them that was very effective against snakes, insects, rats, and ants, they subconsciously ignored this problem.
At this time, I lowered my head and saw that their sachets had been wet by the rain at some point, and there was such a strong smell suddenly in the air. What a big snake it must be...
"Second brother, I have a bad premonition..."
"Princess, you don't need to say anything, I have already seen it..." Tang Sanzian's voice began to tremble.
The trees near the tree hole began to rustle, and I didn't know what kind of huge thing was walking around. I suddenly saw a big snake as thick as a person flashing past.
