423 Escape in the Rainstorm 2

PreviousBack to directoryNext
"Everyone, please note that this road has turned into a swamp. There is mud underneath. If you fall, you will not be able to pull it out. You must be careful."

After Ye Fu finished speaking, Jiang Run inserted the oar into the mud. He exerted a slight force and the raft was pushed out by him.

People behind quickly follow up. At this time, a large raft is much safer than a small raft. The smaller the raft, the less stable it is and the easier it is to tip over.

The raft began to slide forward along with the current, and Ye Fu also saw clearly the "thing" sandwiched between the trees. It was indeed a person. He must have been dead for three or four days, and his whole body was white from soaking.

Ye Fu held on to the raft tightly. As long as he walked out of this section of the road, he didn't need to be so careful. The rain hit his hat and gathered on the brim to form a stream of water flowing down. Ye Fu blinked and tried to remove the water from his eyelashes.

Shake off the rain.

"He is really a dead man. His body is covered with mud and sand, and his clothes are so torn. He must have been dead for several days. He is all swollen and soaked. It's really miserable."

"It should be a refugee hiding in the mountains. Look, there is a baggage next to him."

Tang Yizheng and Qi Yuan have already caught up. Although the mud road is dangerous, as long as you maintain balance, it is much faster than paddling.

Fang Wei shrank his neck and said, "Oh my god, why is the rain getting heavier and heavier?"

"Except for some floating corpses, I haven't met a single living person in the past two days. Do you think all the refugees in the mountains are dead?"

"Maybe he ran away long ago. If we had left when it started to rain, we wouldn't be in such a mess now."

Qi Yuan sighed, "Who knew it would rain for such a long time, and the rain is certainly not just localized. It might be raining in the entire northwest, or in the entire Blue Star. It wouldn't be the same if we left early."

"Where else is safe now?"

"Maybe it's not safe to hide in the snowy mountains. Even if there is no heavy rain, there will still be volcanic eruptions."

"Life and death are destiny, and wealth is in heaven. Anyway, I just thought about it. If I die, it is my destiny." Everyone agreed with Li Cheng's words.

There is nothing to look forward to in life. If I die, maybe everything will be over.

But now we are also facing a problem. He died in the middle of the road, and there was not even a place to bury his body. Like the body behind him, he was just soaked in muddy water, sandwiched between two trees, and died without dignity. Compared with

Death is more frightening.

"Everyone should be more optimistic. Maybe if we climb over the mountain, the rain will stop? I've been going through this for so many years, and I don't want to die."

Qi Yuan arranged the oilcloth on Xuxu's body and took out a piece of dried meat from the bag. The dried meat was a little hard and difficult to tear off. Qi Yuan cut it into thin slices with a knife before stuffing it into Xuxu.

Jiang Rong looked back at Ye Fu from time to time. Others were shivering from the cold, but he was not affected at all. Ye Fu looked at Jiang Rong's white hair under his hat and realized that his hair had grown a lot. He had been too busy in the past few months to have any hair.

Time to help him prune.

The raft has rowed a long distance and is currently stable.

"There is movement ahead." Jiang Run suddenly said.

"Is it human?"

"Probably not."

At this time, Ye Fu also saw clearly the two wild boars in front of him that were stuck in the mud. They were already dying and had probably been stuck here for several hours.

"It's a wild boar." Ye Fu was a little excited and secretly took out the eagle's claw hook from his bag and handed it to Jiang Run. Jiang Run first stopped the raft with his paddle, then threw the eagle's claw hook out and firmly caught the mud.

A pig inside.

The pig started howling the moment it was hooked, and the people behind it became excited when they heard the sound.

"It's a wild boar. Jiang Run is really powerful. He can still hunt when others are fleeing."

The wild boar is not very big, weighing less than 100 pounds, and can be placed on a raft.

"Ye Fu, how many wild boars are there?"

"Both, find a place to hide from the rain before dark, and then deal with these two wild boars."

The two wild boars had obviously been hungry for a long time, and they didn't have much meat on their bodies. Maybe the sudden capture of the wild boars made everyone feel better, and the rest of the journey went smoothly, but the raft couldn't keep rowing on the muddy road.

The woods on both sides are all dwarf spruce trees. The woods are very dense and cannot be entered by rafts.

Ye Fu frowned. Behind him, Fang Wei shouted that he had a stomachache. Others also wanted to go to the toilet. The rain was still falling. Ye Fu wiped the rain off his face and took out his binoculars to look ahead. After seven o'clock, the fog cleared.

A little, you can see clearly within 500 meters.

"There is a fork in the road ahead. I will cut down the trees next to it and lay them on the ground. Let's go up and take cover first." Jiang Run suddenly said.

Ye Fu reached out and held Jiang Run's arm. He did the work of four or five people by himself. Ye Fu really felt sorry for him, but he would never show it, let alone cry out about pain or tiredness.

"Okay, I'll go with you."

Jiang Run controlled the raft and slowly paddled to the fork on the left. Tang Yizheng saw Jiang Run's thoughts and immediately followed. Fortunately, the woods on the left were flat. If it were a high mountain, there would be mudslides rolling down at any time.

Jiang Run picked up the machete on the raft, chopped down the trees on both sides of the fork in the road, and pushed them down. Then he got off the raft, stepped on the felled trees, and began to chop down the trees next to them. Ye Fu and Tang Yizheng hurried down to help.

After cutting down more than 20 trees, repairing the upper branches and spreading them on the wood, the mud and water on the ground were covered. Jiang Run lifted the two pigs and the raft up, and the others followed.

"Let's rest here tonight, take out the bucket to catch the rainwater, and deal with these two wild boars later."

Ye Fu shook off the oilcloth, and Fang Ming and Qi Yuan came over to support the oilcloth shed with her.

"How to make a fire?"

"There are stones over there, I'll move them." Tang Yizheng dug out the stones from the mud, put several stones together, and just made a fire on them.

The task of handling the wild boars was left to Li Cheng and Shu Yun. Ye Fu lit the fire and sat directly on the raft without wanting to move.

"Before, I was exposed to the sun or extremely cold while traveling, and I never suffered so much. This time, I really suffered a lot. I soaked in water every day, and I'm probably going to get rheumatism."

"The difficulty this time is almost the same as when the sea water poured in."

"I don't know where we are now. I hope to return to Lan Province."

"I can't stand it anymore. My stomach is starting to hurt. I feel like I'm going to have diarrhea."

At this time, a bolt of lightning fell, followed by continuous thunder. Ye Fu covered her ears and continued to bake her feet.

Officer Song is cutting ginger slices. Everyone has signs of cold and needs to drink some ginger soup to dispel the cold.

Going to the toilet was more painful than escaping during the rainstorm. Ye Fu regretted not stocking up on diapers. Even if it was difficult, he still had to bite the bullet and solve the problem.

"I don't want to drink water, it's troublesome to go to the toilet." Wenwen frowned and looked at the ginger slices boiling in the pot.
