Chapter 271 270. Fetching Water from a Bamboo Basket
After living with Huaiyu for a long time, Zhou Qian is now very able to convince himself that it is just a tree cocoon medical cabin, and Huacheng Hospital can exchange it for millions of points , not worth mentioning.
He tried to convince himself, but in an instant he walked out again with the wooden stick, and then spent an hour or two digging a big hole in the forest.
Huaiyu is about to die!
“Brother Zhou Qian, don’t let the wounds on your body burst again!”
"Also, are you so humanitarian? This mutated macaque almost killed both of us, do you still want to build its grave?"
She was dumbfounded by her guess.
But Zhou Qian ordered: "Go and get some more firewood."
The effect of tree cocoon is so magical, he cannot give others the chance to find abnormalities through the mutated ape corpse!
But now there are plants everywhere. If he doesn't dig a hole, he won't be able to control the spread of the fire.
Only then did Huaiyu react: "Oh oh oh!"
Withered branches and leaves were piled at the bottom of the pit, with the light body of the mutated macaque in the middle, and the dead branches and leaves were also placed on top.
A piece of burning wood was taken out from the fire in the temple and thrown up. After a brief silence, the dead leaves immediately gave off orange flames and faint smoke. And in the jumping firelight, the thick hair also made a sizzling sound, and the unpleasant smell of burnt egg whites filled the air.
Huaiyu quickly covered his nose.
Zhou Qian's face remained calm and he was used to it. Then he patted Huaiyu on the shoulder:
"You go into the store and rest, I'll stare at the fire here."
By the way, he also wanted to think about the arrangements for going to the wilderness in winter.
At the very least, the previous idea of following the garrison from a distance is now completely overturned.
......
The temperature at night was not much lower than during the day. In the light of the fire, Zhou Qian was covered in hot sweat. Salty sweat flowed through the wound of the new tender flesh, bringing out a slight pain, reminding him of everything that happened during the day.
When the mutated macaque's body in front of him, covered by a shallow layer of charcoal fire, had been burnt to a charred outline, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and quickly kicked the soil next to him to bury the remaining flames in the pit again.
This secret is finally coming to an end.
Now I have to sigh again: Huaiyu couldn't have been wiser to choose to live in the Rose Corridor where no one dares to come.
Zhou Qian raised his wrist and looked at the time. It was already past one o'clock in the morning. The forest was filled with the chirping of insects, and the dark tree shadows were swaying in the breeze, ready to go, looking hideous and terrifying.
Zhou Qian came to his senses and then returned to the main hall.
However, as soon as he entered the door, he was stunned - inside the hall, Huaiyu's legs were still hanging outside the tree cocoon, but he was already half-lying in the tree cocoon, falling into a deep sleep.
Zhou Qian couldn't help but smile again: He was thinking about things here, and it would be better for him to be the initiator, sleeping so hard that he didn't know who was going on.
He looked at the sleeping bag that Huaiyu had laid out in advance next to the tree cocoon. There were several sponge cushions from the Taoist Palace under it, and he couldn't help but lie down as well.
Night shrouded the surroundings, the fire gradually dimmed, and it was unclear whether there was any danger in the darkness. Zhou Qian, who had been sleeping deeply all afternoon, was full of energy. At this moment, he was resting his head on his arm and fell into deep thought again.
……
It was probably too exciting yesterday, so Huaiyu didn't wake up until about seven o'clock in the morning the next day. The sun has risen, and the golden morning light is scattered outside the Taoist Palace, and the temperature is slowly rising again.
Zhou Qian dismantled his rattan stretcher early in the morning, then tied up the tree cocoons, leaving two "shoulder straps" to wear on his arms. At this moment, he stared at his arms. Yu put the three empty buckets back into the backpack, and then said: "Let's go."
After a full sleep, Huaiyu chirped: "I'm finally going back! I came out the day before yesterday, and I have been home for several days today. No one knows whether Kataro and the others will take care of her!"
She was eager to return home. Although the journey was also full of surprises and thrills, Huaiyu did not miss him, only worried. Asked: "Brother Zhou Qian, after the landing is completed, we will set off to the wilderness. No one will be at home for a long time... Do you think I should take the big cub, the second cub, and the fat one with me?"
"Don't take it with you."
With a huge tree cocoon on his back, Zhou Qian's footsteps were not heavy at all. He replied: "There will be many more mutant plants in the wasteland, and your ability is among them." There will be no disadvantages. If you take them with you, your weaknesses will increase, and others will easily detect abnormalities."
He reassured, "Don't worry, they will take care of themselves."< br>
As long as you prepare water and shelter in advance, the Rose Corridor is the safest place.
One after the other, the two slowly embarked on their return journey.
...
But Sanqing Mountain is too big, and they didn’t dare to take the risk to find shortcuts while carrying things on their backs. Therefore, even if Huaiyu didn’t work hard and deliberately make trouble, when they finally saw the tall and safe Rose Corridor in front of them, By then, it was already the morning of the second day.
She was stunned for a moment, and then said happily: "I'm finally back!"
Zhou Qian also smiled.
If he goes any further, his majestic seven-foot-tall man will be crushed by this tree cocoon, which is not that heavy.
As they approached, the Rose Corridor in front of them suddenly gave way to a passage, which was wider than the tree hole that they had to bend down to pass.
Huaiyu giggled: "Qiangwei, do you miss me?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw several shiny branches suddenly pouring out from the passage, and then quickly Reach behind Zhou Qian!
Outlined by spikes and entangled with vines, the tree cocoon originally carried by Zhou Qian was now noticed by Rose Corridor, and he was trying to pull it away forcefully.
Zhou Qian subconsciously let go of the vine on his shoulders, and the vine dragged the cocoon all the way. Near the roots of the rose, the soil suddenly rolled out, swallowing the cocoon directly into the ground.
Huaiyu: "..."
Zhou Qian: "..."
So this tree cocoon that she spent a whole day carrying down from the mountain is now all made for the Rose Corridor. Wedding clothes, right?
The two of them were silent for a while in the passage, until the rose branches made a rustling sound, obviously urging them to hurry up?
After going out and looking at the deserted wilderness, Huaiyu rang:
"I forgot to mention it! There are so many fibrous roots in the Rosaceae family, they look like tree cocoons!"
Zhou Qian obviously did not feel comforted, but instead felt more and more sore in his shoulders and back - so he carried it all the way down It's not just the wedding dress of Rose Corridor, it might even be a part of it, right?
He twitched the corner of his mouth. Seeing Huaiyu still staring at the Rose Corridor, he couldn't help but sigh: "The tree cocoon cannot be used anymore after being buried in the soil. Do you think that the bamboo basket is in vain?"
Huaiyu raised his head: "No!"
Update 2, good night, I'm too sleepy. There will be no updates tonight. Everyone, please go to bed early.
