Chapter 126
After spending another night in the wetland, at noon the next day, the leading troops walked out of the wetland. Half an hour later, all the teachers and students of Huangpu walked out of the wetland. They continued to move forward without stopping, and arrived at the first town after leaving the wetland at [-]:[-] p.m. , Shucheng County.

Shucheng County is sandwiched between the wetlands and the Dabie Mountains. It is poor in supplies. It is a town rather than a larger village, but there are a lot of mountain goods.

After the teachers and students of Whampoa arrived in Shucheng County, although it was still some time before dark, they did not continue to move forward and rested here. However, the instructors of Whampoa did not have the luxury of letting the students lie on the bed to rest, but A few old hunters were called to explain in detail the situation of more than 30 kilometers in the mountain.

The Dabie Mountains stretch nearly [-] kilometers from east to west, and even experienced hunters can only clear part of the star point, but their survival skills are consistent.

The students in Huangpu recorded the various experiences of the old hunters in the mountains, one after another, and in the past few days, they have already memorized more than half of the notebook.Gathering around the bonfire at night, some students from Whampoa even read while eating. Li Chong liked this feeling of self-improvement very much. Progress is a happy thing.

Just like before, Li Chong never knew that he could eat bugs, there are so many edible things in nature.In the past, if he threw himself into the wasteland, he would have to see the King of Hades for at most five or six days without food, but now Li Chong confidently believes that staying for ten days and a half months will definitely not be a problem, and he can even struggle to get out by himself. .

This is progress, the feeling of progress is so good, Li Chong lay on the straw, looked up at the twinkling stars in the sky outside the window, and slowly fell into a deep sleep.

"Cuckoo!" A few cock crows resounded through the town, and the dawn broke through the darkness.

Li Chong got up early as usual, and punched and kicked in the yard. The ground was completely white, and the closer to the mountainous area, the heavier the frost and dew, which could leave clear footprints on it.

The teachers and students of Huangpu began to gather in Shucheng County. The wounded on the stretcher had recovered after these days of recuperation and could walk on the ground. So some bacon and wild pig legs were put on the stretcher. At the same time, the Huangpu instructor led the students It took a whole morning to buy flour and dry food in the whole county, and make pancakes to share.

The next road is not like the wetland in front. It can be walked out in two days and two nights. The short distance from Shucheng County to Huoshan County is more than 70 kilometers. The prelude to the Dabie Mountains can still have a stop in Huoshan County.

The real mountain road will be the main line from Huoshan County to Dabie Mountain. It will take more than 160 kilometers to reach Luotian County all the way south. The teachers and students of Huangpu will not stop halfway along the way. The necessities of life are not only the guns in hand, but also go to the wild. It will only be available through airdrops.

It will be a long mountain road.

At noon, after the teachers and students of Whampoa finished their outfits, they started to head towards the Dabie Mountains. Basically, everyone had a bamboo pole as a walking stick with a cloth strip wrapped around it.

Walking on the mountain road is a test for the knees. Many children like Li Chong who lived in the plains since childhood have never experienced trekking among the mountains, especially the irregular ups and downs of the Dabie Mountains. It's a test of a person's knees.

Li Chong is much better. Years of martial arts training have made his knees very strong, but the speed of a few people cannot speed up the collective marching speed, and the overall marching speed is moving forward slowly.

As soon as we entered the dense forest, the temperature was four or five degrees lower than the bare outside. It was winter, and the fallen leaves covered the mountains. Although there was sunlight coming in, the temperature was not much higher than zero. It didn't feel hot for half a day.

According to what the old Orion said last night, there are not many sunny days in the mountains, and the direction at this time is also the easiest to identify. Apart from other things, you can judge roughly by looking at the shadows of the trees on the ground.

A more accurate and simple method is to insert the bamboo stick in your hand vertically into the ground, a shadow will be reflected on the ground, and the toe of one foot will step on the end of the shadow.Wait for a few minutes, the shadow will gradually move with the movement of the sun, and then step on the end of the moved shadow with the other foot, and the line connecting the two toes will roughly form an east-west line, of course this is a bit Time consuming.

Along the way, the instructors in front stopped and went, looking at the tree shadows on the ground and the compass in their hands from time to time.In this area, the instructors of Huangpu can't compare with those old hunters. They can easily cross the mountains with dense tree trunks without any frame of reference. For them, there is no need to stop to identify the direction. , they have lived here all year round, and they have formed a heartfelt feeling.

In the eyes of Whampoa teachers and students, there is no difference between trees and bamboo forests, but in the eyes of those old hunters, every flower, grass and tree points out the direction for them.It's like the reeds in my hometown. Foreigners can't get out once they enter, but the locals who have played in it since childhood are like a fish in water, and they can easily drill around without stopping to identify the direction. .In the reed marshes, Li Chong had such a feeling that no matter which corner he was in, he always had an indescribable position in his heart.

And this kind of feeling is gone when you leave that homeland. For example, now that you are in the vast Dabie Mountains, you can't tell the difference between the south, the south, the north, and the north after walking up and down in the vast Dabie Mountains.

At four o'clock, the sun was still shining in the woods, but the sun could no longer feel any warmth when it fell on the body.The mountain wind whistling in and out, rolled up the fallen leaves on the ground, and many creatures in the mountains and forests had already entered a state of hibernation.

The mountain wind makes the water in the body disappear faster, and I have tried to drink sparingly, but many people's water bottles have been empty by now.Fortunately, after turning over a small hill, a small lake appeared on the downhill road, about four or five meters long, and small water streams as thick as thumbs from the mountains on both sides poured into this small lake, sparkling with the mountain wind.

The trainees immediately took out their water bottles to fill them with water, but the instructors stopped them and scolded them, "That's what those hunters told you yesterday! The water looks clear, but look, this small lake is in a converging direction. It’s okay if it’s bigger, such a small lake can’t dilute those bacteria and debris, so drink this raw water unless you plan to vomit and diarrhea in the next week.”

Only then did the students hold back their thirst, and built a few fires beside them until they boiled, poured them into kettles and screwed them tightly, and then plunged into the lake to cool down before drinking.

In this way, it was delayed for more than half an hour, which was equivalent to a short break. The teachers and students of Huangpu continued on their way, but they heard the roar of big insects and the sound of small insects in the distance in the mountains and forests, and all kinds of ecology were around.

　Thanks for the reward that I like z just a little bit.
