Xiao Han looked at the tree hole in front of him, his mouth closed in surprise! He lifted his legs and was about to walk in to take a closer look, but unexpectedly, he was pulled back by Ren Qing!
"Wait, let's see if there is any mechanism first!" Ren Qing looked at the tree hole calmly, looking cautious.
"Brother Ren, no, there is no mechanism..." Xiao Lian's weak voice came from behind everyone.
"Huh? How do you know?"
Everyone turned their heads and looked back together, seeing two red clouds on Xiao Lian's face.
"Because... I just went in, and I was the one who opened the door." Xiao Lian lowered her head and replied nervously.
"Door? Where is the door?" Xiao Han was stunned when he heard Xiao Lian say to open the door, because he didn't see the door just now?
However, he soon came to his senses and subconsciously looked underground!
Sure enough, a broken wooden door was lying in the dust. Because the color was so similar to the earth, and the light in the tree hole was dim, no one among them recognized it as a door just now.
The wooden door is made of several boards randomly nailed together, which is very post-modern and non-mainstream! Especially with several footprints and a slender foot-shaped hole printed on it, it is even more special...
"Oh... you're quite strong..." Seeing the fresh wood stubble around the hole, Xiao Han and several people around him looked at Xiao Lian in surprise.
As a result, Xiao Lian's face suddenly turned redder, and he hesitated: "I...I kicked the door open and saw that it had a switch..."
"Pfft..."
Someone burst out in joy, but quickly closed their mouths tightly with a muffled groan.
The laughter disappeared, and Xiao Han calmly took his foot back from Li Rong's foot, as if he hadn't stamped it just now...
Xiao Lian can't be blamed for this, because Xiao Han knows that if he discovers this place first, he will definitely kick him harder than Xiao Lian!
Grinning at Xiao Lian, Xiao Han followed Ren Qing through the broken wooden door and entered the tree house. Taking advantage of the last rays of the sun, he began to look at the furnishings inside.
In his last life, Xiao Han heard that hunters would build cabins in the forest as a resting place.
Moreover, this cabin does not only belong to the builder! Anyone who is tired or sleepy after passing here can come in and take a rest! But he did not expect that this tradition existed in the Tang Dynasty more than a thousand years ago.
The furnishings in the room were extremely simple. There was a covered wooden bucket next to the extremely simple wooden bed. When opened, there was a small half bucket of clean water inside.
There were several nails driven into the wall of the tree. There was a small piece of coarse salt hung in a cloth bag on top, as well as a small bag of fried rice. Xiao Han checked them one by one. The holes were tied tightly and they were not eaten by snakes or rats.
, it seems that the previous person who lived here temporarily had a lot of experience in this area.
While Xiao Han was running around the room and marveling, Ren Qing was squatting by the fire pit studying the charcoal ash.
After twisting a handful of plant ash with his hand, Ren Qing stood up after a long while and said: "No one has been here for at least two or three months!
"Hey, brother, what time is it? Stop pretending to be a detective! We are not looking for anyone, we are here to find a way out!"
Xiao Han couldn't see any difference between the pile of carbon ash in front of him and the carbon ash they had last night. And he didn't care how long it had been since no one came here. He only cared about how long it would take for him to get out!
"Shut up!" Ren Qing glanced at Xiao Han angrily, patted the dust on his hands and continued: "Judging from the situation here, we can go out in five days at most!"
"Really?" This time, Xiao Han was not only not excited, but looked at Ren Qing with serious doubts: "Last time you estimated that you could go out in ten days, it seems that we have been gone for a month..."
It was a bit dark in the tree house, and I couldn't see whether Ren Qing's face was red. I heard him cough slightly and then said:
"Ahem...that was an accident! Now we just need to think about it. This place is definitely a place where hunters come out to hunt and stay temporarily at night! It is close to the outside world, so there is no need to build it hard! But it is too far away, and they can't hunt their prey.
Transporting it out of the country will also be very troublesome and not worth it! So I estimate that from now on, we will definitely be able to reach the outside world in three to five days."
"Huh? That makes sense!" Xiao Han nodded immediately after hearing Ren Qing's explanation. He does not have as much experience as Ren Qing and others on these issues involving common sense!
"So, we're going out soon?" The idiot looked at Ren Qing in disbelief.
"Yes, soon!" Ren Qing nodded vigorously, as if to appease the fool, and also to appease himself.
A moment later, a hoarse roar suddenly erupted in the tree hole! Almost everyone present wanted to roar to vent their tense mood these days. They were finally going out!
A group of people who went out on patrol also came over. They had just returned to the original camp and saw that there was no one there. They were almost scared to death! They thought something had happened!
Fortunately, Xiaoqi had a good nose and searched all the way here, and then learned about Xiao Han's great discovery.
After the initial joy, Xiao Han and the others slowly calmed down.
At this time, someone saw that the heart of the tree was still very spacious, and immediately suggested that they spend the night here tonight. After all, it has walls and a roof, which is much better than living in a tent with ventilation on all sides.
As soon as this suggestion was put forward, it immediately won the support of everyone! Some diligent people had already started running back to move things.
With hope, people have motivation to work!
Xiao Han didn't even need to do anything, those guys moved all the things from the original camp! Even the fire was moved into the tree house. The orange flames danced, and the tree house instantly became warm.
Make porridge with snow water and add all the rice in the tree house. I haven’t eaten rice for so many days and I almost forgot what rice tastes like!
Of course, in order to show that we are not eating for free, we hung a few skewers of bacon on the wall. We do not take advantage of others!
Feel good and eat happily!
After having a comfortable meal in this warm wooden house, with longing for a better tomorrow, Xiao Han and his group, who had been struggling in Qinling for a long time, fell asleep in the tree house.
In Chang'an, the rising sun shines on the glazed tiles of the palace, making the entire palace more and more magnificent.
The time has not yet come, and the main door of the main hall has not been opened at this time.
The civil and military officials who had come to court early were leaning on the white marble railings in boredom, chatting with each other, or taking advantage of this little time to take a nap to make up for the energy wasted last night.
Xiangcheng Hou looked a little pale and was basking in the sun alone. Behind him, a short Yanguan quietly leaned over and tugged at his robe.
Feeling that someone was touching him, the Marquis of Xiangcheng immediately glanced sideways at the Yanguan, who was wearing a sixth-grade official robe, and scolded him dissatisfied: "What are you doing?!"
However, Yan Guan seemed not to care about the Marquis of Xiangcheng. After looking around, he approached the Marquis of Xiangcheng and said, "Master Marquis, I have something to discuss with you."
"What's the matter with you?" Xiangcheng Hou asked suppressing his anger!
He didn't think that a mere sixth-grade speaker could discuss anything important with him. If there was no big matter, then it would be a good decision to give him some small shoes to wear.
Yan Guan didn't know that the Marquis of Xiangcheng had evil thoughts towards him, but he still smiled to himself, looked at the Marquis of Xiangcheng and whispered: "Master Marquis, my surname is Cui..."
