I traveled through time, this is unscientific
Chapter 37: Through the Jungle
Zhou Xiaozhou originally wanted to lie in the wind for a while, but the advancing team did not wait for her. Everyone was focused on the food.
And where does the wind in the forest come from?
After feeling it carefully, Zhou Xiaozhou was sure that there was a gentle breeze blowing, accompanied by a fine mist, gently blowing on people's faces.
If you don't understand, ask Zhou Xiaozhou immediately online: "Where is the wind coming from? Is it raining?"
Zhou Xiaozhou touched his face and felt a thin layer of water, and the outer surface of his jacket also became moist.
Is the humidity in this forest so high? Zhou Xiaozhou was confused.
"It's the water bugs flying." Zhang Gou'er explained to Zhou Xiaozhou while wiping his sister's face in his arms. He then buried Zhang Xiaoya's face in his small chest. His sister's whole body was wrapped up by his wide clothes.
Seeing that Zhou Xiaozhou was still confused, Zhang Gouer continued, "Trichomonas like to live in dark places. When they fly, there will be a lot of water."
The child tried hard to explain, but this was all he knew and he couldn't explain it clearly.
Zhou Xiaozhou decided to turn off the microphone. In fact, she understood the child’s explanation. There was water on her face and clothes because there were flying bugs. However, the key point was that she didn’t see any flying bugs?
Damn it, did she enter some fantasy dungeon of a game? The game settings couldn't be so outrageous!
Invisible bugs dripping water when flying?
Wu Sanmei's voice came over several people, adding at the right time: "There shouldn't be such insects at the foot of the mountain. Sister Zhou, my grandfather said that this is an insect that only exists in Qingfeng Mountain."
Oh! Or maybe Zhou Xiaozhou is just too ignorant. The world is so big that there are so many strange things. Zhou Xiaozhou tried to comfort herself not to think badly of everything, but her heart was beating fast, afraid that something new would appear that she didn't know about. There were really too many new things in this place.
Zhou Xiaozhou felt that the more than ten years of formal education he had received were in vain. Really, he knew less than the ten-year-old kids in the village.
This time, after walking for a while, the road ahead suddenly became clear.
Actually, it was not the case. It was just that they finally got out of the forest. Above their heads was the pass on the other side of Huluyao. The sunlight shone on the bare stone wall, making it look particularly bright.
Following the group to the bottom of the stone wall, Zhou Xiaozhou discovered why few people walked on this road.
The main thing is that the path leading up here is steeper than the one they just walked down from under the big tree at the entrance of the village.
While everyone was taking a break, Zhou Xiaozhou looked around carefully.
She opened her eyes wide and searched for a long time but couldn't find the way to climb up.
There is a small path on each side along the stone wall, but it can be seen that no one has walked on it for a long time and it is overgrown with weeds.
Zhou Xiaozhou chose the left side and prepared to explore: "Can I go to the village chief's house by walking over there?"
As a result, he was stopped after taking only two steps.
"I advise you not to go over there," said Li Dahu, who had never liked the new female teacher. "There are snakes over there, poisonous snakes. Last year, several people went in and never came out."
Li Dahu was not trying to scare Zhou Xiaozhou. Although he felt that there was something wrong with this woman, he could not bear to see her die in vain.
In an instant, Zhou Xiaozhou's outstretched foot stopped obediently. The boy's words made Zhou Xiaozhou feel that he had not survived thoroughly enough. Damn it, what kind of crappy place is this? People could die at any minute!
"It's not a poisonous snake. My grandfather said it was a changren snake," Wu Sanmei added. Her grandfather was well-informed and would not be wrong. "I heard that it loves to eat people."
The blood in his body suddenly froze. Zhou Xiaozhou had never expected that this was cannibalism? This was not the cannibalistic society described in Lu Xun's Diary of a Madman. This was the reality of cannibalism!
Zhou Xiaozhou stepped back. Now she had to stay among the crowd to feel safe.
Seeing Sister Zhou looking at her in horror, Wu Sanmei thought for a moment and then said, "Grandpa said Changren is asleep now, it's okay."
Otherwise, she wouldn't dare to bring Xiaobao and follow everyone into the woods.
"Grandpa said that Changren likes cool places the most and likes to eat people, but after eating people he will sleep, and usually sleep for a very long time," Wu Sanmei counted on Wu Xiaobao's fingers and showed them to Zhou Xiaozhou: "One, two, three, four, five."
She held up Wu Xiaobao's hand and told Zhou Xiaozhou: "We haven't seen it for five months, right, Xiaobao?"
The basic rules of survival are passed down by word of mouth in Lai'an Village. Wu Sanmei has always been with her younger brother, and of course she will pass on the survival knowledge she learned from her elders to her younger children.
"Yes." Wu Xiaobao nodded and took the initiative to spread his five fingers wider and raise them higher.
Lin Daiyu was not to be outdone, she raised her own hands and said loudly: "When my mother asks for a pair of hands, Changren will come out again."
There were other children who whispered in agreement.
"My mother said that Changren likes to eat children because their meat is very tender."
"Yes, yes, that's what my mother said. My father also told me not to run around alone, saying that Changren likes to eat children who are alone the most."
"No, my mother said that my younger sister is the most delicious and Changren likes to eat my younger sister."
It seems that everyone in the village knows about this thing, and every family has told their children about the dangers of this thing, and there are many exaggerated and frightening words. But generally speaking, Changren, this snake-like thing, eats people, and has eaten people more than once, which is something everyone is used to.
"Yeah, yes, yes, your mother is right." Zhao Xiaoer also shouted, and it was unclear which kid he agreed with. "My sister and I met her last time!" This was a blatant show-off.
In fact, Zhao Xiaoer didn't know about the danger that time. Zhao Danniu couldn't help but smile bitterly. Was it something worth bragging about that she wasn't taken away by Changren?
Sure enough, a kid immediately ruthlessly exposed him: “That’s because you were almost eaten by Changren. Hahahaha!”
A group of children burst into laughter, and one child agreed with the previous statement: "That's right, that's right, Xiaoer, my mother said that she doesn't want me to play with you anymore. She said you are stupid and didn't even know to run away when you saw Changren!"
Zhou Xiaozhou felt that these kids were really brainless. How could they say bad things about someone in front of him?
"You are the one without brains?" The village bully was angry. He pouted and retorted loudly, "That was me... I..."
After talking for a long time without saying a word of rebuttal, the village bully simply put his hands on his hips and said righteously: "I don't believe that you will not be afraid when you see Changren, and you can run away, humph!"
Zhao Xiaoer was desperate. He was just scared. He didn't believe that these children wouldn't be scared when they saw such a big thing. The adults couldn't run away, so it was useless for the children to run.
"Yes, yes, our Xiao Erzi is the bravest. He didn't even cry when he saw Changren." Zhao Da Nv still gave face to Zhao Xiaoer outside and usually coaxed him.
And when other children laughed at her little boy, she would definitely stand firmly behind him.
A few kids started bickering with each other, and Zhou Xiaozhou's nervous mood was relieved a lot by their jokes.
From their conversation, she also learned about the experience of the Zhao siblings escaping from Shekou last year.
That’s really hard to put into words.
