Sitting on the grass with his waist smacked, Uncle Lunzi didn't like to move, so he sent Xiaodong, who had been having fun there just now, to go to the stream to have a look, and if it was clean, get some water to boil.
Xiaodong was dismissed and walked over reluctantly, but unexpectedly, he sneaked back before he reached the river.
Uncle Lunzi was just wondering if this kid had discovered something. Unexpectedly, when he came back, he broke off a branch, sharpened it a few times, and trotted back.
"ha!"
Running softly to the stream, Xiaodong raised the branch high and shouted, then plunged into the stream!
Seeing that the tip of the branch was facing the motionless fish in the stream, I didn't expect that when I got into the water, the branch somehow moved to one side!
The stupid fish moved its two gill flaps and looked stupidly at the branches that suddenly appeared beside it. He shook his head and blew out two bubbles, and then he swam down the current and disappeared without a trace.
"Huh? I clearly aimed at the insertion!" The fish ran away, and Xiaodong was dumbfounded! He scratched his head in wonder, wondering how the branch could deflect when it got into the water.
"Idiot!" The stupid uncle who came behind slapped Xiaodong on the head and said angrily: "You don't know that the position of the fish in the water is different from the position you see with your eyes! This little bit of common sense is No, you still want to spear fish? Which gentleman taught you!"
"Oh, no one teaches me, uncle, please be gentle! The Marquis said that if you hit the head, you will be beaten stupid..."
Xiaodong hugged his head and ran away, and when he saw the Hou Ye's cronies shivered, there was a burst of laughter around him.
Xiaodong, who was dodging, turned back angrily. Those men all pretended as if nothing had happened and were busy with their own business...
There was a fire in my stomach, but I didn't dare to take it out on the stupid uncle. Xiaodong could only wait for Uncle Fool to leave, then grab the branches and pounce in the stream until there was a splash of water and all the fish ran away cleanly. He couldn't catch anyone else, so he couldn't catch them either. ! At least this way you won't look too incompetent!
Having no time to pay attention to this lunatic, Xiao Han's family bypassed Xiaodong, picked up some water from the upper reaches of the stream, and started to set up a pot to boil.
Although there is still some water in the skin, if there is an external water source, the water will not be used unless it is available.
After resting on the spot for a while, the rested auxiliary soldiers rushed to wash their hands and faces by the creek, which was less than half a meter wide. Some people saw that the water was really clear, so they drank from it.
However, before the water could reach his mouth, Xiao Han stopped drinking it.
"No one is allowed to drink the water! This water is not clean! From now on, no one is allowed to mess with the river water without my order!"
Lao Lu looked at Xiao Han, who was speaking righteously, and then at the extremely clear stream in his hand. I don’t understand why the Marquis said the water was unclean. Isn’t this good?
Xiao Han can't tell them now: the stream on the mountain looks crystal clear and clean, but there are bacteria and viruses in it... because these people simply don't believe that there are invisible "bugs" in the world, not just them I can't believe it. Even Old Man Hua scoffed at Xiao Han's "whimsical" idea and almost thought that this apprentice was crazy. It was terrible...
Later, Xiao Han repeatedly explained bacteria and mold to the old man, and vowed to tell the old man: When Xiao has researched colorless glass, he will build a microscope! Let the old man see the bacteria with his own eyes! This made the stubborn old man stop arguing with Xiao Han.
In fact, in Xiao Han's view, the high mortality rate in ancient times was not only related to poor medical standards, but also to these unclean living habits.
For example, Xiao Han himself no longer drinks raw water, but only drinks it after boiling it. Under his guidance, Uncle Lengzi and Xiaodong became accustomed to drinking boiled water, but they were no longer used to drinking raw water.
The leader of the auxiliary soldiers, Lao Lu, didn't know why Xiao Han didn't allow them to drink from the stream. After thinking about it again and again, he could only attribute it to the strange habits of the Marquis.
You're a noble person, how can you be called a noble person if you don't have some weird problems? Aren't we just waiting for a while to drink boiled water? For the sake of our armor, we have to wait!
"Come back, come back, don't drink this water! Get excited again!" Lao Lu spoke, and the auxiliary soldiers who didn't know what to do withdrew obediently, leaving Xiaodong alone by the river.
Xiaodong was acting wild for a while, and suddenly realized that there was no one around him. When he turned around, he saw Lao Lu. He smiled and shouted to Lao Lu: "Hey, who said they wanted to get a tiger skin mattress just now? Why did the mattress scream? One sound, scared you like this?!"
"Who, who is scared?" Lao Lu was a little unhappy at being squeezed by Xiaodong. He turned his head and said to Xiaodong: "I'm just afraid that the big insect will hurt Mr. Hou! I'm not bragging. If we were on flat ground, the three of us would be afraid." Five people can capture a big insect! It’s still alive! But in this mountainous area, if you don’t take it seriously, what will happen if someone is injured by it?!”
"Just be scared if you're afraid. It's because the place is not good!" Xiaodong replied with squinting eyes.
Lao Lu frowned: "Little baby, have you never seen a big insect?"
Just as Xiaodong opened his mouth to refute, he heard Xiao Han's voice coming from behind Lao Lu: "Oh? Lao Lu, do you think that tiger is so powerful?"
Xiao Han was originally looking for any good-looking pebbles by the creek. He didn't want to listen to the interesting conversation of these two people, so he also came over and asked curiously: "There are so many of us, how can we be afraid of it?"
In the final analysis, Xiao Han's impression of tigers was that they looked like they were lazily sleeping in the zoo.
Coupled with the famous story of Wu Song fighting a tiger, I always feel that tigers are just like this. After all, in any drama, tigers are always the most miserable. They are either made into tiger skin skirts or beaten to death...
Seeing Xiao Han's disapproval, Lao Lu shook his head with a wry smile, pointed back at the guide with a look of concern on his face and said: "Master Hou, I think this old man is very familiar with big insects, why don't you ask him!"
"Ah? Me?" The guide was grimacing at the side. Suddenly he saw Xiao Han turning his eyes to him, with a somewhat frightened expression. He hurriedly cupped his hands and replied, "I have seen the Marquis before."
Xiao Han waved his hand and said, "No need to be polite, I'm just asking! Have you ever seen a tiger?"
The guide put down his hand, but still bowed his waist habitually, and said carefully: "To tell you what the Marquis said, I have been going up the mountain all year round, and I have indeed seen several big insects."
"Oh? How big is the biggest one you've ever seen?"
"The Marquis asked, which one is the biggest?" the guide thought for a while and then said: "The biggest one is bigger than a five-month-old calf! It looks like it is at least seven or eight hundred kilograms! It jumped into the air and jumped more than two feet. ! A tree as thick as a bowl was cut in half with just one kick! A mountain deer weighing more than 100 kilograms had its neck bitten off before it could even run away. Then the tiger was able to leap up the mountain with it in its mouth! It was really ferocious. !”
"So awesome?" Xiao Han was speechless.
"Cow? Mr. Hou, that's much more powerful than a cow!" Lao Lu took the words and continued: "Actually, what's even more terrifying is that tigers hunt silently! They lurk behind their prey inadvertently, so they often All were fatal with one blow, and the prey had its neck bitten off before it could resist."
"Awesome! I can't afford to offend people with tattoos!" Xiao Han sighed, imagining the way a tiger pounced on its food, and he was fascinated for a moment.
None of the three people spoke, and the scene was quiet for a while. Xiao Han came back to his senses and suddenly remembered a topic that had been discussed for a long time on the Internet. He unconsciously asked: "Then we are facing a tiger alone in the forest. What should we do?"
