Chapter 17: The Way Home
Everyone who is familiar with wolves knows that this animal is very vindictive, and after a failed attack, there will definitely be a second, a third, and each time more and more will come, and endlessly, until it is satisfied.
Provoked by the wolf, everyone is not interested in sleeping anymore, the sky is not yet bright, it is even more undesirable to set off at this time, simply burn a few more fires nearby, the beast is afraid of fire, nature.
Everyone chatted casually, and took a nap if they wanted to sleep, but they ensured that more than two people kept vigil, and after chatting for half an hour, it was still early to see that it was still early, and it would not work if it went on like this, and it was definitely a fatal weakness to not rest well in this forest, Zao Wou-Ki slept for a while, and his spirit was extremely strong, so he let everyone sleep, and it was Zhang Peng's turn to sentry, and the two kept vigil together and chatted.
Zhang Peng took himself as an example, and after talking about the life situation outside for a while, he suddenly asked: "Brother Wuji, what are your plans after you go out?" ”
"Not yet." Zao Wou-Ki said truthfully: "The outside world is more complicated than this primeval forest, I need time to get acquainted, let's talk about it after I am familiar, and besides, what you talk about the most these days is money, money is the guarantee of life, I think, after going out, the first thing I have to solve is the problem of money, and the other is identity, don't you say that it is difficult to move an inch without identity?" ”
"It is said that we are brothers, and if you have your brother to eat, you are indispensable, but it can be seen that you are a self-reliant person, and you don't like to accept help from others, brother is not reluctant, and the problem of identity will be handed over to the eldest brother, as for the problem of money, you help us this time, which is equivalent to helping the country, which is considered a great achievement, and the country must have some rewards, so don't worry about it in a short time," Zhang Peng analyzed.
Zao Wou-Ki didn't answer, but was thinking about something, and after a while, Zhang Peng said: "In your situation, it's a matter of time before you get ahead, and the top priority is to familiarize yourself with the environment, different environments have different rules of life. ”
"How can I get familiar with the environment and integrate into life faster?" Zao Wou-Ki asked.
"Find a platform to make a transition, two ways, one is to join us, the army is a simple collective, at least much simpler than the city, this, you can see us, stay in the army for a while, get familiar with it and then leave; The second is to go to school, the school is relatively simple, and there are enough things for you to learn, so that the time for you to integrate into life will be greatly accelerated, and my brother suggests that you choose the second one. Zhang Peng analyzed.
"However, in my case, with no status, no money, and no education you said, can the school accept me?" Zao Wou-Ki has been in the past from time to time, and he doesn't know anything about the outside world, and these days of communication have given Zao Wou-Ki a contour perception of the outside.
"I'll leave the matter of going to school, what major do you plan to study?" Zhang Peng asked.
"I want to travel all over the world, what do you think is good to learn? Since I was five years old, I followed my grandfather to learn the three-character scripture and the hundred family names, and later, I learned the four books, the five classics, the hundred family subsets and everything, and I didn't know what to learn. Zao Wou-Ki smiled wryly, feeling that it was a shame to see that he didn't know what to study.
Zhang Peng didn't expect that Zao Wou-Ki had been influenced by Chinese culture since he was a child, and he couldn't help but be taken aback, there are very few people who have learned Chinese culture in these years, and those who really understand Chinese culture are like rare animals, rare, and are fed. Think about it and say: "I don't know, if you don't learn the language, at least you won't be troubled by the language barrier if you go to other countries, and you don't have a foundation in other liberal arts, science, and engineering majors, especially the foundation of mathematics, physics and chemistry, and it is more difficult to learn." ”
"It's okay, let's learn first, and then we'll see," Zao Wou-Ki's understanding of the situation outside was limited to imagination, and he didn't understand it well, let alone be familiar with it, so it was difficult to evaluate and make decisions.
After a while, Zao Wou-Ki said, "By the way, how can I make money?" ”
"Money, it's a bastard, it can't be done without it, it's very difficult to master it, our expenses are arranged by the department, and we also have a monthly salary, I'm not afraid of your jokes, I don't know how people outside make money, let's talk about it when the time comes, I'll ask other friends when I go back, there is always a way." Zhang Peng said.
┅┅。
Unconsciously, the sky was bright, and the wolf did not attack again, which made everyone breathe a sigh of relief, and it was only a temporary relaxation, with the wolf's temperament, he would definitely not give up, and it would be a matter of time before he came again next time.
I got some game, wild fruits to eat, the water is not enough, cut a few green bamboo, green bamboo this plant is very special in the hollow part of the bamboo actually stores a lot of water, this kind of water can be quoted with confidence, don't worry about bacteria, viruses, everyone is full of food and drink, plus slept for a night, full of energy, began to hurry.
This walk is a day, there is no chasing soldier behind him, everyone's mood is open, there are talking and laughing, like traveling, of course, vigilance is no less, it has become a habit to remain vigilant before the danger is not lifted, unconsciously, everyone turned over a mountain peak, and a mountain stream appeared in front of them.
The mountain stream is upstream, there are dense wild flowers on both sides, there are a lot of bamboos, it looks so beautiful, so quiet, there are some big stones on the mountain stream, it is estimated that it is the top of the mountain landslide down, after the polishing of time, it has been bare, a few little monkeys play on it, it is very lively.
It was simply a mountain peach blossom luck, everyone was fascinated by the scenery in front of them, and decided to camp here, anyway, it was already dark, and this mountain stream was also very hidden, out of the two peaks, not big, and the canyon was surrounded by tall and dense woods.
Hunting, fire, practice, bathing, everything is so orderly, this time it is fish, there is actually a baby fish in the mountain stream, this is a rare treasure, in this primeval forest, do not eat white, do not eat, helmet as a pot, Zao Wou-Ki did not know where to find some herbs, and stewed with fish.
As soon as everyone eats, good fellow, that one is delicious, I almost didn't swallow my tongue, I don't feel enough, and I stewed two more helmets.
Zhang Peng looked at the herbs in the helmet curiously, and didn't know what they were, so he asked, "What are these?" ”
"A kind of herb, I see that your body is a little tired, as if you are going to get sick, it is estimated that it is mountain syndrome, and you will be fine after taking this medicine." Zao Wou-Ki said: "I don't know what it's called, Qingniuzhai has been doing this for generations. ”
"No wonder I ate a warm body, and my body function has recovered a lot, so that's the case." Bin Zi said while drinking the soup: "Then eat more, and then eat vegetables." ”
"Why did you put a stone in it? What is this stone for? Gangzi asked.
"We call him a taste stone, and what comes out of it has a taste, and we do this kind of stone in Qingniu Village," Zao said.
"Mitsuki?" Gangzi picked up a stone that he didn't put down and licked it, quickly took a sip, and said: "This is a salt stone, oh, it's called a salt stone outside, and it's a mineral that can be made into coarse salt." ”
"What are minerals?" Zao Wou-Ki asked curiously.
"That's it?" Gangzi couldn't explain clearly for a long time, so he reluctantly gave up pretending, and said embarrassedly: "I can't explain it clearly, you can find out for yourself after you go out, or else, my brother will buy you a bunch of books on this subject, you can read it yourself, okay?" ”
Hahaha! Looking at Gangzi's deflated appearance, the others couldn't see it anymore and laughed.
Hearty laughter flew around the mountain stream, and the startled monkeys sprang up to the trees, looked back curiously at the strange creatures, and squeaked and squeaked to express their opinions to their companions.
In Zao Wou-ki's view, it is not simple for Gangzi to fight against the wolf sneak attack, Zao Wou-Ki has no famous teacher to guide, all martial arts are based on the "Natural Scripture" as the internal strength of the mind, according to the action of the beast fighting, there is no routine.
When Gangzi heard this, his face showed a little pride and satisfaction, there was finally something to make this little brother look at him, right? Then he threw off his arms and played a set of military body boxing and a set of hand-to-hand combat combination boxing, sweating, not panting, out of the dragon ascending to heaven, collecting milk and swallows into the forest, sealing like an iron mountain, flashing like a raccoon cat dance, such as a dragon fighting the four wilds, and like a mountain fire raging, tiger and tiger wind, concise, direct, no fancy, pay attention to a blow to kill, the end is powerful.
Seeing Zao Wou-ki's thoughtful look, Gangzi was even more relieved, and said kindly: "Want to learn? Brother teaches you. ”
Of course, Zao Wou-Ki will not refuse, although Gangzi's attack still has many flaws in Zao Wou-ki's opinion, and he is confident that he can take down the other party without three moves, but Zao Wou-Ki is very clear about his own situation, it is all pure blind exploration, and he also knows very well that Gangzi's martial arts have been summarized and tested by generations and wars.
So, Zao Wou-Ki held the mentality of returning to zero, studied seriously, and Gangzi did not hide his selfishness, and seriously explained his fighting theory, how to find the enemy's flaws and weaknesses? How to save energy and attack the enemy as much as possible? The structure and weaknesses of the human body, etc., are explained while analogy, and before you know it, two hours have passed, and you don't know that you are tired.
These two hours are undoubtedly precious for Zao Wou-ki, who has been groping on his own, and he has a more comprehensive understanding of martial arts, and a new door is opened invisibly.
For Zao Wou-ki, moves and skills are important, but theory is more important, Gangzi seems to have discovered Zao Wou-ki's shortcomings, and selflessly dedicated the fighting theory he knew, as for fighting skills, I will talk about it later, for people who have cultivated martial arts to a certain extent, Daqiao does not bow, heavy sword has no edge, and the skills will be like a showcase, which is useless, of course, the strength of the person is right, and the skill is important.
Unconsciously, the sky was completely dark, and Zhao Wouji, who had no sleepiness, let everyone rest, and continued to ponder the theories and skills that Gangzi said under the moonlight.
Zhang Peng looked at the obsessed Zao Wou-Ki and said to Gangzi: "Gangzi, if Brother Wuji goes mad, I will pull out your skin, and besides, his current state is not suitable for sentry, and the first sentry will be handed over to you." ”
Gangzi smiled, and said indifferently: "Boss, you can rest assured, he is a good seedling, he is a brother who has nothing to take, give me some advice, it can be regarded as a meeting gift for him, don't blame me, Binzi taught him to play with bombs, Fengzi taught him to shoot, I instructed him to fight is nothing, but you are the eldest brother, don't be too shabby." ”
Zhang Peng glared at Gangzi, smiled softly and fell asleep on a huge stone, the stone was covered with a very thick layer of hay, don't worry about the cold stone, Gangzi saw that the other brothers were also sleeping, and went to pick up some firewood to burn the fire, so as not to catch a cold.
The night was darker, but Zao Wou-Ki looked at the moonlight for a while, looked around for a while, tilted his head and thought about something.
