Chapter 260 259. Cave

Walking all the way up the plank road, the cave at the corner that Huaiyu mentioned was actually still far away.

The original plan for this week's dive was to wait until three or four o'clock in the afternoon, when the sun was shining brightly and the heat from the earth and rocks that had been exposed to direct sunlight for the whole day was evaporating. At this time, we could rest on the spot.

Wait until five o'clock before setting off, and find a suitable place to spend the night when it gets dark around 7:00.

But he forgot that he was no longer the captain Zhou who ordered and forbade him, but he had transformed into a tormentor himself, and Huaiyu had also transformed into a tormentor in terms of physical strength.

The two tow trucks bumped into each other, and finally arrived at the cave they planned to visit at 6:00 in the evening.

At this moment, Huaiyu was holding on to the stone wall next to the plank road, refusing to walk no matter what: "I'm too tired! I can't walk anymore!"

Zhou Qian's clothes were also wet with sweat. He looked up and looked ahead at the cave Huaiyu mentioned. This was not a cave. It was clearly a wide and bright depression in the mountain wall.

As far as the eye can see, they are all flat rocks, and there are no weeds in all directions. It does not look like a place where fungi can grow.

Zhou Qian was slightly relieved.

Look at the time again - 6:00 is an awkward time period. You can keep walking, but you can't say whether you can find such a good place to shelter from wind, rain and morning dew at night.

He had no choice but to nod: "Okay, just rest here - don't go near the cave yet, I'll go in and take a look."

He was used to walking at the front, but Huaiyu stopped him: "Brother Zhou Qian, you are not as safe as me on the mountain."

After approaching, Huaiyu only glanced at it and immediately felt relieved: "It's so dry here. Most plants don't like it. Brother Zhou Qian, we can have a good rest at night."

This coincided with Zhou Qian's thoughts, but he was still thinking about the mutant bacteria Kuang Biao described, and at this moment he was wondering: "Isn't it this cave?"

Then Huaiyu was not sure: "This mountain is so big, it's normal for there to be hidden caves in other places. Brother Zhou Qian, come and move the stones to build the stove, and I'll get some branches."

After running around all afternoon, and not seeing anything edible on the road, Zhou Qian was actually hungry. Now he used local materials, piled large and small stones together, and quickly put up the multi-functional pot.

Look at their inventory - a bottle of shrimp oil, six dry pancakes that won't spoil immediately in this weather, a head of garlic, a pack of dried chili peppers, and a little salt.

There is also a pack of dried shrimps that are caught and fried and dried.

Zhou Qian had already finished eating the taro lotus at noon. Thinking of the crispy texture, Zhou Qian couldn't help but salivate, so he took another sip of water.

Three large bottles of mineral water-like water weighed heavily on his back, which was not much weight to him now. It's just that the backpack is full. Even though a day has passed, there is nothing missing except a bottle of water - the empty bucket is still stuffed in the backpack, so as not to waste it.

Hold the warm water in your mouth, and then slowly swallow it. While moisturizing, Zhou Qian is also thinking about another thing -

Judging from today's situation, Huaiyu is safe wherever there are mutated plants. Occasionally, if a mutated animal wants to take action, the plants on the side will help stop it.

In this way, she didn't have to worry about her safety on the road to the wasteland.

But since mutated animals dare to attack, mutated creatures like strange fish in the pond must not be able to avoid them. However, water sources are a top priority in the wild, and the garrison site is generally chosen nearby.

When he and Huaiyu go to the wilderness, they can't bring a cart full of water, right?

This will have to be solved sooner or later. He looked around and found a tall rock standing straight up not far away, like an abruptly stretched out finger, facing the entrance of the cave. It was indeed particularly eye-catching.

There is a thin waterfall splashing from top to bottom on this rock. Although it looks very close, it actually takes some effort to reach it. Apart from this, there is no other source of water.

At this moment, Huaiyu had already dragged a dead tree back: "Brother Zhou Qian, I got the firewood back, you can break it."

"Withered?" Zhou Qian took over and found that it was light and airy. It was clear that the water had evaporated long ago, and now it was the best time to make a fire.

"Well," Huaiyu also took a sip of water: "The plants in the mountains are competing too hard. Some small trees can't get sunlight for a long time and can't get nutrients, so they have to die like this. I asked several trees Shu, some of them wouldn’t answer me, and they only told me after asking many questions.”

This was about the size of an oak tree. Looking at its rugged skin, Huaiyu felt a little regretful: "It would be particularly suitable to take this home to plant black fungus."

While talking, Zhou Qian had already neatly removed its side branches, and then the branch that was too long above his knees broke with a slight force, and the branch snapped again.

Huaiyu: ...Forget it.

She couldn't drag the tree back anyway, so she would have to buy another fungus bag. Without meat or eggs, only fungi can taste delicious, otherwise it always feels like eating grass.

Zhou Qian was a little amused: "You have such a good relationship with plants, will you be sad if this tree dies?"

"Of course not!" Huaiyu said matter-of-factly: "There are cycles between species, do I have to feel sorry for it?"

"If this is even difficult, then when I first cut down trees to build a house and make firewood, wouldn't I have to knock one for them? A life for a life?"

She shook her head: "Brother Zhou Qian, you are too narrow-minded!"

Then he mumbled again! "What's more, the trees I'm looking for have no mutated abilities at all, and they won't pay attention to me even if I want to talk."

Narrow-minded Zhou Qian: I understand, Huaiyu’s logic does not start from people, but from species - as if she herself is not a person.

He simply changed the subject: "What are you going to eat tonight?"

Good question!

I saw Huaiyu pointing to the plastic bag on the side: "When I was looking for firewood, I came across an acacia tree. Although the season was wrong, I heard that I had no food to eat at night, so it was still willing to bloom a few bunches of flowers for me. —The price is to help it grow a little longer, because autumn is coming and it needs a stronger root system to grow to store capacity for the winter. "

"so…"

Huaiyu stared at the materials he could use now and couldn't help but become curious: "Brother Zhou Qian, do you think the fried shrimp oil will be delicious if mixed with steamed sophora japonica flowers?"

This combination sounds a bit strange, but what hasn’t Zhou Qian eaten during his previous missions? The nutrient solution specially provided by the defense army is also terrible to drink. Huaiyu still wants to take two sips after drinking it.

So he raised his eyebrows: "Just try, I can eat whatever you want."

Thinking about Huai Yu's criminal record, he added the necessary conditions: "The materials must be purified by you."

Huaiyu snorted: "I haven't lied to you a few times. Why are you so defensive... I also want to eat the steamed locust flowers at night."
