Chapter 409: A Person from the Cave
After hearing the "ding" prompt sound, Gu Qinghan felt that the faint light in his mind was cut off.
"What are you doing, Qinghan, are you still asleep?"
Suddenly, the door curtain at the front of the carriage was lifted, and Li Junyong stuck his head in.
Eyes facing each other.
When Gu Qinghan was about to say something...
Li Junyong saw that Gu Qinghan had not yet had time to retract his smile, and the corners of his mouth twitched. He thought he was seeing things, so he rubbed his eyes, lowered the curtain, walked out, and then opened it again. This time, he saw Gu Qinghan with an expressionless face.
This is the normal state. The way Gu Qinghan was just now must have been an illusion.
"Junyong, come up."
When Gu Qinghan saw what Li Junyong did, he coughed lightly and waved at Li Junyong with a serious expression on his face.
Ok?
Thinking that Gu Qinghan had some physical problem, Li Junyong became nervous in an instant and quickly jumped into the car. He looked Gu Qinghan up and down and even touched his forehead.
But before they could touch each other, Gu Qinghan slapped his hand away.
"I'm not sick."
Gu Qinghan glanced at Li Junyong and said, then concentrated his energy and put the noodles, dried peanuts and some seasonings that he had just wished for into the carriage. There were not many and they could fit in a cloth bag.
As for peanut oil, it is a bit inappropriate to appear here, so let's put it aside for now.
When Li Junyong saw this situation again, his mouth couldn't help but open slightly.
"This……"
"Xuanzhi sent...sent something over again?"
No wonder Gu Qinghan was so slow in the car. In the past, he would take action as soon as he was shouted at.
"This part is for you."
"Give me?"
Li Junyong was somewhat flattered. He pointed at himself and said with a look of disbelief.
"Well, I'll take some here and you can take some there. I can't fit so many in my suitcase."
After all, he had traveled for such a long time, it was not reasonable for him to carry so much food in his hands. However, there was not much point in hiding the food that he had wished to send. He could only share things with everyone and things that would not arouse suspicion. Gu Qinghan needed to unify his statements with Li Junyong.
They packed their dry food in wooden boxes and placed them under the hidden panels in the carriage.
"Okay." Li Junyong stopped being shy and started tinkering with it quickly.
In order to make room, Gu Qinghan got out of the car.
……
In a cave in Zhupian Mountain.
The downpour lasted until night, with drizzles still falling.
The frogs' croaking came one after another, as if they were competing to see whose voice was louder. When one place finished croaking, another place would quickly take over.
The three people who had been taking shelter in the cave looked at the pitch-black forest outside, which was filled with white fog and no trees could be seen. They all shook their heads helplessly. Ma Youcai walked to the fire holding a torch.
"Damn it, why is it never-ending? It started raining as soon as we stepped into the woods and it hasn't stopped yet. Let alone finding the village, I can't even see the trees in the forest now." Wu Guang had been waiting for the rain to stop, but it didn't. He couldn't bear the anger on his face any longer and began to fidget. He paced outside the cave, kicked a few frogs that were about to jump into the cave, and then cursed.
"Alas, there is nothing we can do about it. We have to stay here for the night. It is not safe to leave the forest at night."
Fortunately, they went in and out of the forest all year round, and they carried dry food, fire starters, thick clothes, straw raincoats and hats with them, so they would not starve or freeze. They also caught a few non-venomous snakes when entering the forest. Now there was a cave to shelter from the wind and rain, so Ma Youcai felt that he would not be panicked at all even if he stayed here for one night.
"Why are you so impatient? Didn't you tell your wife when you went out? Just stay here quietly. It's very cold tonight." Deng Yan consoled Wu Guang who was pacing aside.
"Tsk, don't bother me. I'm just bored. I've been waiting for so long with nothing to do." Wu Guang said with a stunned face and waved his hands.
Ma Youcai didn't care about his look. He walked around the cave with a torch in hand and didn't find anything strange. In order to sleep well tonight, he sprinkled some snake repellent powder around the hay that everyone had laid. Only then did he feel a little relieved.
"Ah!" Suddenly there was a cry of pain, followed by the sound of a figure falling to the ground.
Wu Guang didn't even know what was happening. He didn't even see a figure, and the whole person flew up.
"Damn it, don't block the way here." A big man kicked the figure blocking the door to the ground without even saying hello.
Deng Yan and Ma Youcai, who were sitting by the fire, stood up quickly and helped Wu Guang, who had fallen to the ground and was screaming in pain. Wu Guang held his chest with his hand and was about to curse, but when he saw the men's uniform clothes and terrifying eyes, with a big knife in their hands and a bow and arrow on their backs, he closed his mouth in disappointment. He knew at a glance that these men were not easy to mess with and he could only blame himself for his bad luck.
Deng Yan and Ma Youcai stared with vigilance at the five tall figures who were wrapped tightly and covered in rain. When these people appeared, the cave, which was not very big to begin with, seemed very cramped, and the originally dry ground was now soaked with dripping water droplets.
"Who are you? Why do you beat people at will?" Ma Youcai asked.
"Tsk, you dog that's blocking my way, get out of the way. Who gave you the guts to talk to me like that? Have you asked about the sword in my hand?"
Wu Kai sneered, fumbled with the hilt of the sword at his waist, and glanced at the three middle-aged men in front of him who had no fighting power at all, with contempt in his eyes.
Looking at the cave with a volcano, he nodded with satisfaction and said, "Brothers, let's stay here tonight. What can we do in such a windy and rainy weather? We might as well have a comfortable sleep and not endure the hardship." After that, he took off his straw raincoat and hat and hung them on a rack next to the fire. The clothes originally hanging on the rack were pushed to the ground by Wu Kai.
"you……"
Before Deng Yan could finish his words, Wu Kai immediately retorted.
"What are you talking about? It's your blessing that someone likes your shelf, so just be happy."
Deng Yan is usually a good-tempered person. Seeing this man's unreasonable behavior, he almost started to curse, but was stopped by Ma Youcai in time. He could only glare at him, silently picked up the clothes that fell on the ground, and patted the dirt on them. Fortunately, the coat was almost dry, so even if it fell to the ground, it was not so bad.
But he was unhappy.
You think you're so great just because you carry a knife and a sword? You don't even ask a question when you use other people's things.
"Wu Kai, restrain yourself and don't cause trouble."
Qiu Shao looked at Wu Kai with a warning look, then took out a silver ingot from his bosom and threw it to Deng Yan, "We want to occupy this area and borrow your shelf. Can you choose another area? This will be considered as an apology."
