survival in the wilderness

There is a small river tens of meters south of Mang Village, which is very convenient for water.

Gao Qiang successfully borrowed two wooden barrels from the village, one big and one small, and they were already full of water.

Lin Yan looked at their achievements and praised with a smile: "You and Lu Yu are too good, you can do this in one day, not bad."

Gao Qiang smiled honestly, scratched his head and said, "The people in the village are pretty nice, they are very simple, they just want to eat and wear warm clothes."

Lu Yu: "Gao Qiang only used a pot of meat mixed with noodles, and it was successful."

"Where did you get the noodles?" Lin Yan was surprised. The flour they brought had already been cleaned up. She hadn't eaten noodles for more than two months, and she ate all kinds of meat and wild fruits every day.

"It's made of rye." Gao Qiang pointed to a basin, "It's reserved for you guys, eat it quickly."

The rye in the field was already ripe. With the consent of the villagers, Gao Qiang and Lu Yu worked hard to grind the rye into coarse powder and made a simple pot of black noodles.

It's just that the materials are limited, that's all.

But even so, it opened the eyes of the villagers who only steamed the rye, as if they had eaten a delicacy.

That scene touched Gao Qiang and Lu Yu endlessly.

Compared with the white flour in Sun City, the rye meal is like cloud mud, and the difference is too far.

Even so, it caused a sensation in the whole Mang Village, and they looked like gods in their eyes.

When Lin Yan and the others heard the words, they picked up the bowls and started fighting for it.A large basin of noodles was cleaned up in the blink of an eye, and there was not even soup left, and the wooden basin was as clean as if it had been washed.

After eating and drinking enough, everyone sat around and talked about today's harvest.

Lan Xing said: "The hunting harvest was good today. I got eleven gray rabbits, three wild sheep, eight pheasants, one sack each of wild fruits and wild vegetables. The fur has been processed. Gao Qiang, you have to work hard to make dried meat, Lu Yu You're going to sew the fur coat."

The two nodded with a smile, and they didn't find it hard. This was their job.

Lin Yan suddenly said: "You can take the villagers to do it together and teach them. When we leave next year, they will be able to live better."

Gao Qianghan said with a smile: "I was just about to say this. People in Mang Village live too hard. They stay indoors during the winter season, which is similar to the way we used to hide in underground caves. The good thing is that they can The house was lit with a fire, and the whole family gathered together to endure the cold, waiting for the cold season to pass.”

Mentioning this, the people present couldn't help sighing, they had such a difficult time before.

Lu Yu also said: "The weaving of the people in the village is very backward, and the leather clothes they sew are not good. The fur is simply processed, and the smell is very strong. I will teach them to process fur and sew clothes tomorrow."

Speaking of this, he paused, "I went to see several companies today, and they have limited fur. It is impossible for everyone to wear leather clothes to keep out the cold."

Gao Qiang: "They don't have anything to eat. Now they are all hungry and full, and there is nothing to eat in the cold season. I heard that many people will die in a cold season, especially the elderly and children. Can they survive?" The past is all about fate."

Lin Yan asked, "Who manages the village?"

"There are two prestigious old men, old man Mu and woman Hua. They are only in their 40s and [-]s, but they look like they are in their fifties or sixties."

"When you told them that the winter season is approaching, how did the villagers react?"

Lu Yu shook his head, "Almost all of them are skeptical. They don't believe that we know when the cold season will come. But the habit of the villagers is to start storing food a long time ago, relying entirely on past experience."

"It's understandable. They don't know the time, and it's normal for them not to trust us." Lin Yan understood that this was a normal reaction, just like when Sun City announced the year, month, and day to predict the hot and cold seasons.

Seeing that everyone was quiet for a moment, Wen Xue said: "There are a lot of dead trees around the village, and it is very convenient to cut firewood. The firewood cut today is about [-] catties, all of which are piled up in the yard. Some have already been chopped and stacked, and some Most of them didn't split."

"Aren't you in any danger?" Lin Yan asked with concern.Although it is around the village, it should not be careless.Everyone in the team is critical and life-saving must come first.

Wen Xue shook her head, "There are ferocious beasts around the village, but none of them are big ones. A few of us can handle them. We killed a big snake and a few pheasants, and brought them back."

"Today's harvest is very good. Gao Qiang Lu Yu, discuss with Mu Laotou and Hua Pozi tomorrow, let the villagers come to repair the house as soon as possible."

With the results of a day's hunting, I believe that the villagers must be very willing to work after seeing so much meat.

Lu Yu and Gao Qiang nodded together.

Lan Yue suddenly said: "The two of them have too many things to do, let Zuo Tian also stay tomorrow, he is good at building houses and carpentry."

Zuo Tian looked at Lin Yan, saw her nodding in agreement, and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely repair the house to protect it from the cold." He had already thought about how to repair the house and prepare some furniture yesterday.

When I went out today, I also carefully observed the surroundings of the village. It is very convenient to use local materials for wood, and the soil is also very suitable.Time was urgent, and it was too late to burn bricks, but there was a river beach outside the village with many stones piled up, which happened to be useful.

Except for Gao Qiang and Lu Yu who were busy, the others rested early.

Although the two of them don't have to go hunting, they have heavy responsibilities on their shoulders.There is so much meat and fur waiting for them to deal with, this is just the beginning, and every day will only get busier.

After Lin Yan finished training, he looked at Gao Qiang and Lu Yu who were still busy in the firelight, and walked to them and sat down.

He picked up the dagger and helped Gao Qiang cut the meat.

Gao Qiang hurriedly said: "It's already ten o'clock, you go to bed quickly, you have to go hunting tomorrow. I can handle these small tasks by myself."

Lin Yan waved his hand, "Don't worry, I'm in good health, so I'll be fine if I sleep late."

Seeing that Gao Qiang still refused, she hurriedly said, "I just finished practicing and I can't fall asleep. I might feel sleepy after working for a while."

Lu Yu kept busy with his hands, and said: "You have something on your mind and can't sleep?"

He secretly observed Lin Yan, and found that she was tangled and hesitant many times before going to bed, as if she had something on her mind.

Lin Yan glanced at the room partitioned by wooden boards, and said in a low voice, "What's on my mind, don't guess."

The wooden house is not big, originally there were no compartments, but on the first day they arrived, they divided it into three rooms with wood.One room for women, one room for men, and in the middle is where everyone eats.

More than a dozen people crowded into this small wooden house, not daring to make too much movement at night.

Although it is small and crowded, it is much better than a tent built with oilcloth, and it makes people feel more secure.

Lu Yu glanced at Lin Yan and said no more.

The three of them were afraid of disturbing others, so they did their work in silence.

In fact, Lin Yan just wanted to find something to do. She really didn't feel sleepy. Seeing that Gao Qiang and Lu Yu were still busy so late, she offered to help.

After working for more than an hour, the three of them packed up and went to bed.For the other two vigil.

The village is not safe either, and every night they have to take turns to keep vigil.In order not to affect the next day's work, two groups of two will watch the night for two hours, taking turns.
