Chapter 904 The cannon fodder for the golden finger (24)
The melted snow suddenly rose up silently.
Fortunately, events during the day prevented many people from sleeping peacefully.
Therefore, when many people find that the water is rising, they quickly run to higher ground.
However, on the second day, those who had been squatting like a golden rooster in a high place all night suddenly discovered that when they looked up, they were surrounded by water like a vast ocean.
This is still the most serious thing. The most serious thing is that they found that the sun came out again!
Because Shi Jiang and the others had kayaks, although there was some distance from the city in Fengnan Mountain, they arrived at Fengnan Mountain very quickly.
"This...how did Fengnan Mountain become such a small hill?"
Shi's father looked at Fengnan Mountain in shock. Fengnan Mountain, which was originally as high as a thirty-story building, was now only about one-third of its height.
"The water is probably going to rise again. Dad, let's go to the top of the mountain and find a place to settle down first."
Shi Jiang was afraid that tomorrow would be like today during the day. After the sun came out, the ground would be too hot to stand on.
"That's right, let's find a place to settle down first. I remember that there is an air-raid shelter on Fengnan Mountain. Let's go to the air-raid shelter first to see if it can be occupied by people."
After Shi's father finished speaking, he checked the direction, put away the kayak, and walked with his wife and daughter in the direction of the air raid shelter in his memory.
However, it was obvious that Shi Jiang and his family were not the only smart ones. Before they even got close to the original air-raid shelter, they saw someone blocking the entrance of the air-raid shelter with a knife, staring at the father and daughter with defensive expressions.
Shi Jiang grabbed Shi's father who wanted to come forward to discuss with those people, took a few steps back cautiously, and then whispered.
"Dad, since you know everything here, others must know it too. Why don't we find another safe place, which is more convenient than here."
After hearing his daughter's words, Shi's father immediately thought of the supplies in their space.
If no one else has anything to eat, but the three of them, father and daughter, have something to eat, then they are really guilty of possessing a treasure.
He didn't want to wrong his wife and daughter to suffer along with him, so he immediately nodded in agreement.
"Don't worry, Dad knows how to build a shelter."
Fengnan Mountain was originally a protected area, and because of the proper protection of the trees, each tree is long enough for an adult to hold it in his arms.
Not thinking about the hot sun during the day, Shi's father finally found a place with two trees growing against a stone wall.
"Let's find a way to dig a hole in this stone wall that can accommodate people, so that we won't be afraid of the sun during the day!"
Looking in the direction of Shi's father's finger, I saw a recessed cave in the middle of the mountain wall, but it didn't look very deep. If I wanted to live in it, I guess I would have to dig it out more.
Shi Jiang squinted his eyes. This place was indeed quite suitable. Of course, the prerequisite was that there would be no earthquake or anything else. Otherwise, he would probably be buried under the mountain wall.
However, let’s get over the current difficulties first.
The three of them, father and daughter, even if they have crossbows in their hands, are still difficult to defeat with both hands. It is best to avoid them as much as possible.
Moreover, Shi Jiang was not actually worried about those extremely vicious people, but worried about those who showed weakness.
There are always some people who think that if I am poor, I am justified, and if I am weak, you should let me do it. They think this is natural and justified.
It wouldn't matter if Shi Jiang was alone, but Shi's father and mother had never met before, and she didn't want them to get into trouble.
"Let's dig out the cave first, then lower the climbing rope from the cave, cut down these two trees, and then put them diagonally on the mountain wall, and then cut some branches to cover them, so that a
Shelter. Then, we will stay in this shelter during the day and climb into the cave on the mountain wall to sleep at night to avoid snakes, insects, rats, ants and bad people."
Although the cave on the mountain wall looked like a concave shape, in Shi's father's opinion, it wouldn't take long to dig a cave that could accommodate the three of them.
"Okay, dad, let me help you!"
Shi Jiang took out a piece of rope from the space, tied a knot, crossed it, and put it on his feet, and then started climbing. Because of the rope, people could easily be fixed on the tree, forming a support.
point.
Shi's father didn't expect his daughter to move so quickly and neatly. He let out a sigh and climbed up not to be outdone.
It has to be said that these two trees were just right away from the mountain wall. The father and daughter hung on the top of the tree, and then with a force, they turned over to the hollow in the middle of the mountain wall.
Then the father and daughter each took out a sapper shovel and started digging holes.
"Dad, be careful if the hole collapses. We need to use a thicker stick to support it first."
Just like digging a mine hole, you need to build pillars first. As long as the hole is not dug deep and supported by these pillars, the hole will not collapse.
What was originally just a recessed area where two adults could stand was soon dug into a hole two meters wide and one meter deep.
"Dad, you keep digging. I'll go down and help mom tidy up the bottom first, so that it won't burn you when the sun comes out."
"Okay, you can go ahead. Dad can be alone here. I guarantee that our family can sleep peacefully tomorrow night."
These words are naturally comforting. Even if they can guard against the evil intentions of those snakes, insects, rats, ants, and humans, their biggest enemy now is nature!
Whether the water floods again or something else happens, this is what they have to be prepared for.
Therefore, it is impossible to sleep peacefully.
Naturally, Shi Jiang would not refute his father's words. He nodded, then drove a few steel nails on the floor of the cave, and then carefully wrapped the climbing rope around the steel nails, ensuring that even if one of the steel nails came out,
problem, it will not affect the firmness of the rope.
After climbing down the rope, Shi Jiang cut down the two trees.
Shi's mother helped cut them down together, then sawed the two trees in half, and placed them at an angle around the mountain wall and fixed them securely.
Then tie the chopped leaves and branches to the tree, leaving only a gap as high as a person in the middle for entry and exit.
The climbing rope hanging down from the mountain wall is hidden inside the shelter. If you don't look carefully, you won't know that you can still climb up from the shelter.
After finishing the outer shelter, Shi Jiang dug along the mountain wall and dug inside.
Let the mountain wall form a triangle. Even if you don't go to the mountain wall during the day, you won't be afraid of being burned by the sun.
After finishing all this, Shi's mother took out the rice and vegetables she had prepared before and called Shi's father to come down and eat first.
Shi's father responded, then climbed down from above, took the food and carbonated drinks handed over by Shi's mother, and took a sip.
"After the snow melts, when will all this water recede?"
Looking at the vast expanse of water in the distance, although their family of three had prepared enough supplies in their space, Shi's father could not help but fall into the worry of being prepared for danger in times of peace.
