God does not always make everything go as you wish. The second rain in June came equally unexpectedly. Early the next morning after Zhang Tie left the tree fort, at four or five o'clock in the morning, the sky rolled. The thunder shook Zhang Tie awake from his sleeping bag. Before Zhang Tie could completely put away his sleeping bag, the heavy rain started to fall.
In the Wild Wolf Valley, there are not always caves and tree holes for you to live in. Zhang Tie's current location is almost fifteen kilometers away from the Wild Wolf Castle. In order to find the two beasts, there is only a patch of grass and shrubs around the foot of the mountain. Zhang Tie slept among the piles of rocks last night. Among the two stones in this pile of rocks, there was a place with a slightly higher ground, barely suitable for sleeping. Zhang Tie used his sword to cut a pile of weeds and spread them on the ground. He also cut a few bushes with lush branches and placed them on two places. I used the gap on the stone to block some wind. Finally, I sprinkled a small circle of powder to prevent snakes and insects on the surrounding ground, then put my sleeping bag on the grass and fell asleep.
Although he was lying on the ground, Zhang Tie did not fall asleep completely throughout the night. Although the powder could prevent snakes and insects, it could not prevent ferocious carnivores such as wild wolves. Zhang Tie did not want to turn into a beast while sleeping. Zhang Tie, who was camping alone in the wild for the first time, finally experienced the taste of a lone traveler. He slept in the wild until midnight, not to mention the cold, but the strange sounds in the surrounding environment often made him feel uncomfortable. Zhang Tie overreacted and jumped up with his sword drawn, thinking that some ferocious beast was quietly approaching. He became nervous and it was a huge drain on his mental and physical strength. While working as a helper at Tangde Grocery Store, Zhang Tie learned from some pioneers that there was a mutant type of army ant excrement that could frighten most ferocious beasts. This type of excrement can usually be found in the abandoned nests of army ants. , so, sometimes. Even if you know, it's useless. God won't let something happen to appear in front of you when you need it. On the contrary, it may suddenly start to rain heavily while you are sleeping in the open air.
In the situation like last night, Zhang Tie, who regarded the Black Iron Castle as his biggest secret, would certainly not go in and out of the Black Iron Castle so arrogantly in the wilderness, so the small tree in the Black Iron Castle The second iron tire fruit is still hanging fine.
"Holy shit!" Before the sleeping bag was completely put into the backpack, raindrops were already falling on Zhang Tie's face. Zhang Tie could only hurry up and move quickly, having just put the sleeping bag in. It started to rain heavily. By the time Zhang Tie put on his poncho, less than half of his clothes were soaked. Zhang Tie, who put on his poncho, quickly ran to the edge of a cliff in the distance and took a few steps. Then he remembered the place where his sword was still sleeping. He had kept the sword in his hand last night. It's still a little dark now. Having almost forgotten about it, Zhang Tie ran back and picked up the sword. Finally, like a hairless mouse chased by raindrops, he rushed towards the place where he could take shelter from the rain.
The rain-sheltering cliff over there was about a kilometer away from Zhang Tie, and the road in the valley was not easy to walk. Zhang Tie had been running in the heavy rain for almost five minutes before reaching that place. When Zhang Tie ran to the foot of the cliff over there, half of Zhang Tie's pants and half of his clothes were almost soaked.
While helplessly looking at the gray sky under the cliff to avoid the rain, Zhang Tie took out some dried meat from his body to replenish his strength. When he came out this time, Zhang Tie only brought about five kilograms of dried meat. Zhang Tie gave all the other food to Pandora and Alice. Zhang Tie also wanted to see if he had the ability to complete the Lone Walker Trial.
You can take shelter from the rain under the cliff, but the rain powder in the air will still blow on people's faces with the wind, making it itchy, just like Beverly playfully brushing her eyelashes on her face. I thought of it. Beverly and Zhang Tie thought about Alice and Pandora again. They thought about the night when they lost their first kiss. They thought about the little goldfish that three girls got into their mouths and Pandora's unexpected kiss. That night, The person who moved Zhang Tie the most was actually Pandora.
Unknowingly, the disobedient guy under Zhang Tie was as hard as iron.
I wonder how they are doing today? In the dark rain and sky, Zhang Tie looked in the direction of the Wild Wolf Castle. Zhang Tie didn't know whether his yearning for them was lust or love, or whether there was no difference between the two at all. The so-called love was also Good, desire is good, it's just something made up by those boring literati and wealthy ladies. I hope they live well, hope they are happy, and don't want to see them hurt in any way. I want to be good to them, and at the same time I There is also an impulse and desire to do "terrible and disgusting" things to them. This is my true feelings for them, no matter what it is called.
It rained heavily, and it continued for four or five hours before dawn. The rain gradually subsided. The rainwater collected in the valley followed the creeks and ravines and rushed into the river in the valley. After several hours of heavy rain, The river in the valley swelled to a point, and then the turbid river water mixed with some dead branches and leaves rushed downstream. The roads in the valley became muddy everywhere, slippery in some places, and there were small puddles everywhere.
The rain had just subsided a little, and when I saw that the sky was getting brighter, Zhang Tie, who had been standing under the cliff for two hours and squatting for two hours, immediately ran out wearing a poncho. There were still dark clouds in the sky. It’s thick and has no intention of dissipating. I don’t know how long this rain will continue. Before the heavier rain comes, Zhang Tie is eager to find a dry place for him to stay tonight. It’s best to Mountain caves, like tree caves like the tree house base, are too rare.
After walking in the rain for more than an hour, when the light rain turned into drizzle, and then the drizzle slowly turned into heavy rain, Zhang Tie finally found him at the foot of a mountain three kilometers away from where he took shelter. A hole, an abandoned mine. It seems that someone tried to open a mine in this hole. However, the miners tried to dig less than ten meters in and only opened a gap. They found that they were not here. What he wanted, he stopped. The cave was very shallow. As long as he stood outside the cave, he could see the entire cave at a glance. It was far from hidden. But for Zhang Tie, who was looking for a place to stay in the rain, this cave was nothing short of sudden. The paradise that appears.
When Zhang Tie came to this cave. He also found that someone seemed to have lived in the cave. There were some scattered dry firewood and hay in the cave, and there were traces of a pile of dark charcoal ash from the fire on the ground. Looking at the dry firewood, Zhang Tie was immediately overjoyed. He never thought that one day he would be so happy when he saw a little firewood.
He took off his poncho and placed it on a stone in the cave to dry. He then found a dry place to put down his baggage and luggage. Finally, he placed the spear bag in a convenient place near the entrance of the cave. Zhang Tie took out a flint lighter from his body. . I found a pile of hay and dry firewood, and after a while, a warm firewood rose in the cave. In the firelight, water vapor began to emerge from Zhang Tie's already damp clothes and trousers.
Looking at the heavy rain pouring down again outside the cave. Zhang Tie's heart is filled with a feeling called happiness, sometimes. Happiness comes so easily - when it's raining heavily outside. You don't get wet, and you still have a fire to roast yourself in. This is happiness.
Zhang Tie found another piece of dried milk from his food and roasted it on the fire. After a while, the fragrance of dried milk began to emerge from the whole cave.
It would be great if one of the three of them, Pandora, was by his side at this time. Zhang Tie suddenly had a somewhat "animal" thought in his mind. In such weather, in such a deserted and wild cave, there was no other way than to keep warm by the fire. Look at the rain, everyone still has a lot of time left to do other meaningful things, hehehehehe...
Just when Zhang Tie was running through all kinds of strange thoughts in his mind, a man wearing a yellow-green poncho rushed into the cave from the outside with a gust of wind and rain. When this man rushed in from the outside, Neither he nor Zhang Tie seemed to have expected to meet anyone else in this cave, and then the two people who looked at each other were slightly stunned. When he suddenly encountered a stranger in the wild, his first reaction was that Zhang Tie and that person were surprisingly similar. Zhang Tie grabbed his long sword in one fell swoop, while the other person flicked his poncho and shot an arrow. It was placed on the bowstring of the long bow on his body. Zhang Tie's sword was not unsheathed, and the man's long bow was not drawn either. The arrow pointed at the ground, and the two people stared at it with big eyes and small eyes.
Seeing the man's longbow and his age, Zhang Tie suddenly thought of a name, "Are you... Bruce?"
The man was stunned for a moment, and the slightly nervous expression on his face suddenly relaxed, but he did not put away the bow and arrow in his hand, "You are also a trial student!"
"Of course, how else would I have heard of your name, Bruce the Archer, you are famous in Wild Wolf Castle!" Zhang Tie laughed and put the long sword in his hand at his feet. Bruce also breathed a sigh of relief and put away the long bow in his hand.
"How will you be here?"
The two people asked each other the same question at the same time, then looked at each other and found that the other person was scratching their heads in embarrassment like themselves. Then the two guys laughed together, and the atmosphere in the cave suddenly relaxed completely. .
"Me, I'm going out to hunt down two wolves, and I'll try to see if I can challenge the Lone Walker Trial!" Seeing that Bruce seemed a bit introverted, Zhang Tie spoke first and told the truth without hesitation. After he came out, there was nothing to hide in itself. Zhang Tie estimated that his affairs in Wild Wolf Castle had spread everywhere now, "What about you!"
"The hay and firewood in this cave were originally prepared for myself...
"Okay, then I'll take advantage of you this time, No, I'll give this to you, and it'll count as my rent..." Zhang Tie handed the baked piece of dried milk on his hand to Bruce...
Looking at Zhang Tie's naturally stretched out hand, Bruce hesitated for a moment, and finally took the piece of fragrant dried milk that had been roasted to golden brown, "Thank you, I just ate it, do you still have it..."
"Don't worry, I still have..." Zhang Tie took out another piece of dried milk from his luggage and continued to bake it on the fire with a small wooden stick until he saw Zhang Tie actually took it out again. After a piece of milk jerky, Bruce took a small bite of the milk jerky in his hand...
This guy is a little introverted, but he seems to be a nice person! Zhang Tie, who noticed such a detail, said to himself.
"Can you tell me about the two wolves you are going to hunt down? Maybe I can help you!" Bruce, who had been eating Zhang Tie's milk jerky silently, said seriously after finishing the milk jerky.
So Zhang Tie told the story about himself and those wolves without any concealment, including the fact that he almost died when he first encountered those wolves, and the wolves almost injured Pandora and three other people two days ago. I talked about everything about women.
"Does one of the two wolves you mentioned have a ring of brown-red hair around its neck, and one of its ears seems to be slightly missing?" Bruce thought for a while and then asked.
"Have you seen those two beasts?"
"Just yesterday, I saw two wolves walking by less than a few dozen meters away from me. I was in a tree and wanted to hunt giant wolves. Because I was afraid of striking grass and alerting snakes, I let the two wolves pass by. A wolf slipped away from me, and I kept watching from the tree. I happened to see the two wolves burrowing behind a hillside in the distance and never appeared again. I guessed that the den of the two wolves might be there. Over there on that hillside..."
Zhang Tie was overjoyed...
