Chapter 48 Rope
The railway is on the mountainside, about 30 meters away from the bottom of the valley. The road down the mountain is extremely steep. Although there are plants growing so that it is not impossible to climb with bare hands, it is always dangerous to go down the steep cliff with bare hands.

It is dangerous to go down the mountain from the broken railway, but if you want to take a detour, you don't know how far you have to go, and you may not be able to find a suitable road, so it is imperative for a group of people to go down the mountain from here.

"The cliff is steep, with a height of 30 to [-] meters. If you continue like this, it will always be dangerous. After all, we are not professional climbers, so we must find tools such as ropes." Ling Tao looked around. Looking at the cliff in front of him, he turned around and looked at everyone with a frown.

At this time, he thought that if the rope tied to the railway to intercept the living dead had not been used, it would be of great use now, but unfortunately, if nothing happened, it would be even more unrealistic to go back and find that rope.

"How about we all take off our clothes, tear them into strips and connect them together as a rope"?Wang Jun asked tentatively.

Ling Tao rolled his eyes and said: "You can figure it out, although this is a solution, but let alone whether the cloth strips torn from the cloth of the clothes can bear the weight of a person, in case it is broken by a stone when going down the mountain What about it? If you fall, you will be smashed to pieces, do you dare to try?"
Wang Jun shrugged his shoulders and stopped talking. Although he had participated in field survival training, it was with a full set of tools. There was nothing he could do in such a poor and empty state.

Many self-proclaimed wild survival enthusiasts, you see, throw away all his equipment and see if he dares to say that he can survive in the wild.

"Then what to do"?Jiang Feifei asked tentatively. As a girl, she really didn't have the courage to climb down the cliff with her bare hands. Once she did that, she felt that she would definitely be thrown to death.

"Everyone look around, it's best to find plants like vines, weave them into ropes, and we can probably go down the mountain," Ling Tao said, looking around.

Vine plants contain a lot of fiber. In autumn, the vines grow steadily and are most suitable for weaving ropes.

But the idea was very good. Looking around, there was no trace of vines, except for grass, it was grass, and it was the kind of green grass. The idea of ​​using vines to weave ropes suddenly fell through.

"It would be great if those corpses weren't thrown away. At least if all the clothes on them were taken off, they should be able to bear the weight of our descent," Wang Jun murmured.

No one answered him, let alone the question of morality and immorality of pulling out the clothes of the dead, who would dare to touch the clothes of the living dead alone?

Just when everyone was at a loss, Zhang Guohua said, "I have a way."

"any solution"?Ling Tao looked at him and asked in surprise.

Zhang Guohua looked at the surrounding grass and said slowly: "I have lived in the countryside since I was a child. When I was a child, I saw my parents weave ropes with straw (plants of rice), which were so strong that they could even bear the weight of a cow. Maybe it can also be used to weave ropes, the grass is about two feet long, which is about the same length as straw, so it should work.”

Since ancient times, the wisdom of the working people is infinite. When there is no modern craft rope, people in the countryside will use straw to weave rope (of course, other plants are also possible), and the load-bearing capacity is extremely strong. Of course, the woven rope is not It may be so thin, at least the size of a glutinous rice ball, and to bear the weight of a cow, I'm afraid it will take a thick wrist.

The so-called wind blowing strong grass, the grass blades are relatively soft and tough, rich in a lot of fibers, and it is completely feasible to weave ropes. (If you don’t understand, do you understand the principle that more people are more powerful? A single blade of grass is not strong enough to bear the force, but how can tens of thousands of blades of grass be stressed at the same time? Even now, people in many rural areas still use straw to weave ropes ,This is a fact).

"Can it really work?"Wang Jun asked with some doubts. As a privileged family living in the city since childhood, this is the first time he has heard of such a simple method.

Zhang Guohua didn't answer. He walked to the side and pulled up a weed to look at it, then nodded and said: "It's totally feasible. I know this kind of grass. It's called coir raincoat grass. It's completely feasible to weave ropes. There are some places in the city where weed It is green, but it is a pity that there is no mane tree around here, otherwise, the leaves of the mane tree or the brown mane underneath are good materials for making ropes."

"Then what are you waiting for? Pull up the coir raincoats around you. It depends on whether you can go down the mountain." Wang Jun said eagerly. He didn't care about coir coir coir grass or mane trees as long as he could go down the mountain.

Zhang Guohua interrupted Wang Jun with a smile and said: "Wait a minute, the grass roots of coir coir grass are not used to weave ropes, it is best to cut off the roots, and fresh coir coir coir grass can't be used to weave ropes, it needs to be dried for a while. Row".

Ling Tao nodded secretly, completely understanding Zhang Guohua's words. Grass leaves contain fibers. After drying, part of the moisture is removed, and the rest is fibers. Of course, they are not pure fibers, but at least in this way, the woven rope is stronger.

"Then what should we do? We only have a fruit knife in our hands now. When will we get enough squirrel grass to weave a rope?"Wang Jun was dumbfounded and said helplessly.

"Give me the fruit knife, leave it to me," Zhang Guohua nodded and smiled.

Wang Jun handed the fruit knife to Zhang Guohua to see what he could do.

Zhang Guohua, who got the fruit knife, walked to the edge of the coir raincoat grass, separated the grass to reveal the roots below, stretched out his hand, grabbed the middle part of a handful of coir raincoat grass, and stroked the fruit knife along the root, and a handful of coir raincoat The grass is all rooted and broken!

"I have lived in the countryside since I was a child, and I am used to doing farm work. Whether it is harvesting rice or wheat, or even mowing grass to feed cows, it is common, so this kind of thing is left to me. After all, a fruit knife is not a special sickle for mowing grass. Speed It's a lot slower," Zhang Guohua said while busy.

Just as he was saying this, he cut off the coir coir grass one by one with a fruit knife, and put them on the nearby railway. After a while, he cut off a piece.

Ling Tao and the others were stunned by such a quick mowing action, and this was when Zhang Guohua said that the fruit knife was not handy!
"Sure enough, 360 lines, the number one in every line, many things for rural people are not what we can do," Wang Jun said a little depressed.

"It's eight or nine o'clock now, and the sun is just right. The coir coir grass can lose some water in the sun for about an hour. It's good for making ropes. If there is too much water, the grass leaves are not tough enough, but the grass leaves will become brittle when completely dried." Zhang Guohua didn't stop his hands, and said smoothly in his mouth.

Ling Tao and the others were quite knowledgeable, they had never done farm work, and they expressed their admiration for Zhang Guohua's smooth movements at this time, at least they couldn't do it.

Look at people, almost all of the coir raincoats are cut off at the same root, and they are neatly stacked, neither thick nor thin, and can fully absorb sunlight and dry water. How much farm work does it take to develop such a pair of skillful hands?
Zhang Guohua is from the countryside, with a simple mind, and he doesn't feel anything if he does everything by himself. On the contrary, Ling Tao and others are embarrassed to see it. They can look at each other with big eyes and small eyes.

Time passed, and after more than an hour, Zhang Guohua had already cut off a large piece of coir coir grass, and the cut grass leaves were neatly stacked on the railway.

"Well, it's almost there. These should be able to weave a rope for going down the mountain. It just so happens that the grass leaves that were cut off at the beginning can be used to weave ropes directly." Zhang Guohua stopped, wiped his sweat and looked at the grass leaves on the ground Said.

"Do you need help"?Ling Tao walked over and asked, even looking at himself ashamed.

"No, I've done this kind of thing, you haven't done it, just watch it," Zhang Guohua said with a simple smile and shook his head.

Immediately, he walked to the grass leaves that he cut first and sat down. Starting from the sun-dried place, he divided two pinches the size of his thumb, stepped on them, crossed the two pinches, and placed the root of one pinch on the other side. The pinch was interrupted, and then he rubbed his hands together. Under the curious and stunned gaze of Ling Tao and others, two pinches of scattered grass were miraculously twisted into a spiral crossing rope!
"It's amazing," Wang Jun sighed sincerely, and almost wanted to try it himself.

"Hehe, it's very simple. Many people in the older generation in rural areas can do it, but few people in the younger generation can do it now." Zhang Guohua said with a simple smile.

He kept rubbing his hands in turn, and soon two handfuls of grass leaves that were originally two feet long were twisted into a half-foot-long double helix crossed rope by him. At this time, because one side started from the middle One side started from the root, which caused the side from the middle to be close to the top of the grass blade. Zhang Guohua took a pinch of grass blade from the side again and placed it on the short side, which became a new blade of grass and placed it at the root. In the middle of the other side, with both hands together, the rope crosses and spirals forward...!
"It turned out to be like this. I wondered why one side is at the root and the other is at the middle. In this way, you can keep the rope stretching all the time, and you don't have to worry about not being able to continue the connection when you reach the top of the grass blade twice." Ling Tao was stunned by the side road.

"It's amazing, we rely on this rope to go down the mountain," Wang Jun said in surprise, looking at the ever-extending grass rope.

But Zhang Guohua shook his head and said: "It's not enough, I'm afraid it can't bear our weight, we have to weave it twice, weave two such ropes and weave it again, and finally it's almost as thick as an arm, and it can fully bear our weight." The weight of the ... ".

(In nature, as long as you think carefully, anything can be used. Is it possible to weave ropes with grass leaves? To teach you the experience of survival in the wild, thank you, let alone the stone deliberately delaying the plot, and finally Please recommend for collection...)
