Chapter 835: Escaped

"On fire?"

Hearing the shouts from the bottom of the mountain and the explosion from the fire burning the bamboo, Rong'er sat up in panic and asked while rubbing her eyes. Ethereal.2.

Earlier, she remembered that her son cried for a while, and fell asleep in Zhuangzi's arms under Zhuangzi's persuasion.

No one paid attention to her, and now Brother Zhuang is gone.

"Brother Zhuang? Brother Zhuang? Rong'er shouted, ran out of the cave, and looked around.

After these days of wandering around the mountains, they finally found a good place to live and dug a cave in a cliff. The cave is secluded, so you can sleep in it day and night.

During the day, when they were fine, the two of them made traps around the area, one was to capture the prey, and the other was to prevent anyone from touching them.

Now the two of them don't need to go around the mountains every day, they can sit in the cave and wait for the prey to be set. If you have prey, just go and harvest it. Catching a big prey is enough for the two of them to eat for several days, or even half a month. So! Eating is not a problem at all.

As a disciple of the Mo family, everyone knows some tricks, especially those related to survival in the wild. They can use natural materials, using branches, vines, bamboo sticks, etc. as raw materials to create various invisible traps.

Zhuangzi sat cross-legged on a boulder, closing his eyes and cultivating, as if there was no fire at the bottom of the mountain.

Hearing Rong'er's panicked scream, he slowly withdrew from his cultivation state. Turning his head to look at Rong'er, he asked, "Are you awake?" ”

"Brother Zhuang?"

"Ready, ready! We'll be able to go tonight! ”

"Brother Zhuang?"

"Go back! Practice! Take care of your body! You might even meet some clever people! ”

"Brother Zhuang?"

"For 500,000 taels of silver, there are still people who are not afraid of death!"

"Brother Zhuang? Who has 500,000 taels of silver? Rong'er asked.

"A fool will believe that there is, and a fool will believe that there is! Get back! ”

Rong'er ignored Zhuangzi, came to his side, hugged Zhuangzi, and leaned his head up.

"Brother Zhuang! You? Are you really smart, you? ”

"Still praising me?" Zhuangzi shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said, "This is also called smart? This is the most basic survival principle, survival skills, this will not be, so what is in your heart? ”

"People thought they burned us to death!"

Zhuangzi sighed: "If only they thought they could burn us, it would be good." But there are so many of them, and there must be a few smart people among them. Or! Orions who are familiar with the terrain may be able to consider this. ”

"Orion?"

"Hmm!" Zhuangzi snorted: "Only Orion runs all over the mountains and is familiar with every place in the mountains. Over here! They should know. ”

"Brother Zhuang!" When Rong'er heard this, she became worried again.

"Go back and pack up, we're ready to leave at any moment."

"Hmm!" Only then did Rong'er agree, got up and went back to the cave to clean up.

From the day he fled into the mountains, Zhuangzi had thought about this question: What if? What should I do if the other party really burns down the mountain?

So! He had been looking in the mountains for a place to avoid the fire.

Outcome! He really found this place.

There is more than one place in this mountain where you can avoid the fire, and there are many others. If there really is a day when the mountain is burned by people, he has n choices.

In fact! There are many such places in the mountains, and there are places where there is a water source. Second, the place where the mountain protrudes. 3. Where there are rocks. Fourth, it is easy to establish a security line of defense. 5. A grove of tall trees. 6. The top of the cliff......

The place where Zhuangzi is now located is on top of a protruding cliff. It's surrounded by rocks with only a handful of weeds and shrubs. These weeds and shrubs, the fire simply could not burn them.

And! This cliff is not so unclimbable, it is the kind that can be passed up and down, left and right, and there is no danger.

He dug a cave in the middle of the cliff using a crack in the rock. Honestly, it's a great place to retreat. There are no other beasts to come in except snakes and rats.

Snakes are not scary! As long as people occupy this place first, they will consciously stay away from you and will not come to fight you for territory.

Here, you don't need to build a "security line" at all, you don't need to cut down grass and trees everywhere, the fire can't burn. Other than that! Since this is a protruding part of the mountain, the smoke behind the fire cannot blow this side. The smoke blew in, and it separated from each other.

Seeing that the people down the hill had run downwind, a smile appeared on Zhuangzi's face.

He thought to himself: run downwind, don't you want to smoke? Want to choke to death, don't you?

But think about it too! Normal people's thinking is like this: If you don't run downwind, you run upwind, do you want to be burned to death by fire?

Don't? No one thought of taking advantage of this opportunity to follow the fire and go to the mountains to pick up the beasts that had been burned to death?

In just half an hour, the fire burned to the bottom of the cliff.

The soil below the cliff is very good, not only with tall woods, but also with lush vegetation and shrubs.

The fire set the tree on fire, and the flames flew everywhere in the howling wind. The ashes that had been burned out were fluttering all over the sky under the blowing of the wind.

Although the soot was diverted from both sides of the mountain in the protruding part of the mountain, Zhuangzi, who was sitting on the rock, still felt a strong choking smell. Fearing that the smoke was poisonous, he had to come down from the rock and return to the cave.

"Ahem!" In the cave, there was also a strong smell of smoke, and Rong'er couldn't stand it and coughed.

Zhuangzi took out a piece of clothing, soaked it in water, and handed it to Rong'er.

"Wrap your mouth and nose!"

Rong'er took the wet clothes, wrapped them around her face, took a few deep breaths, and felt much better.

Zhuangzi himself did the same, wetting his clothes and wrapping them around his face.

The two gathered up and stood in a dark corner, waiting for the fire to burn out.

After another half an hour, the fire burned. But! The trees below continued to burn, and the bushes on the ground were not yet fully burned.

Fearing that a cunning hunter would follow the fire to search the mountain, the two had to descend from the cliff and dodge in a dark corner.

"Brother Zhuang! Did we get away with it? Rong'er said in a vague voice through her clothes.

"Not necessarily! Orions are more cunning than those people! ”

As he spoke, there were people talking at the foot of the mountain.

"Hahaha! Those fools! I only know how to block the wind, but I don't know that if I follow the fire, I can catch the prey that is half burned to death! ”

"That's what I mean!"

"! You guys that IQ! Forget it! Another sneered.

"What's wrong?"

"You guys? ! Just that bit of IQ? You guys? Are you worthy to be hunters? ! ”

"What's wrong? What's wrong? ”

"Labor and management tell you! Labor and management are not just here to catch prey, labor and management! Labour! Yes! The wild boar is coming! Wild boar! ”

That's when it happened! A herd of wild boars came down from the mountains.

In order to survive, the wild boar walked directly in a straight line and passed over to the three hunters.

"Run! Rong'er! Zhuangzi took off the clothes on his face, put them away, and said to Rong'er.

"The beast is out! We ran after the beasts, and the Orion could not do anything to do it. ”

Rong'er also ripped off the clothes on her face, followed Zhuangzi, and ran in the direction where the wild boar was running.
