Behind me is the earth

Chapter 18 018.Safe House

The white snow is like catkins, flying all over the sky. Ren Pingsheng, who originally thought about going out early in the morning, can only put it aside for the time being.

It was almost noon when the snow gradually stopped.

The snow on the ground was about two centimeters thick, barely covering the tops of my feet.

"The first snowfall this year was a bit heavy."

Xiaowan held a water cup filled with hot water, walked to Ren Pingsheng, stretched out her hand and handed the water cup to Ren Pingsheng.

Ren Pingsheng took the water glass, and the hot water glass immediately drove away the coldness in his palms.

"It's for you."

Ren Pingsheng found a yellow thumb bear from his pocket and gave it to Xiaowan.

"Thank you, Master!"

Xiaowan looked at the cute little bear in her hand, feeling warm in her heart.

Ren Pingsheng held the water cup in both hands and drank half of the hot water in sips. He put on his gloves and Xiaowan took the broom in the yard and swept a path out of the snow in the yard.

Opening the door, the entire village was enveloped in snowy white.

However, Liujia Village is not like the village in my childhood memories. At that time, children were happily rolling in the snow, building snowmen, and having snowball fights.

As for Liujia Village, life is considered good for dozens of miles around. However, due to the excessive levies imposed by the county, most of the harvest is taxed. If it weren't for the village militia team that goes into the mountains for hunting from time to time, the life in the village would probably be the same. Other villages are not much different.

Most villagers don't have enough food to eat at home and don't have warm clothes to wear. Naturally, parents don't let their children go out to play, so as to avoid freezing their bodies and catching wind and cold.

However, after the snow, the village was still lively.

The neighbors all went out, cleared a path together, and chatted with each other.

Although the first snow fell heavily, it melted quickly.

After the snow stopped, the sun came out soon. By evening, except for the shady places, there were no traces of snow in many places.

Early the next morning, Ren Pingsheng dressed up, left the village, and walked towards Hongye Mountain.

The sun is warm, and there is still some undigested white snow among the mountains and forests.

A gray rabbit poked its head and sniffed the ground, looking for food.

Suddenly, the rabbit's ears tightened, and a "boom" sound was heard. Its strong and powerful hind legs had just kicked off the ground, and its body had just left the ground, and then suddenly a huge force acted on it. .

It rolled and hit a tree behind it before stopping.

A man walked up to it, grabbed its ears and lifted it up.

"Lunch is in order."

Ren Pingsheng directly grabbed the rabbit's ears and continued walking along the path that was covered with vegetation and could only be vaguely seen as a road.

From time to time, red strips of cloth tied to tree trunks pointed the way.

Ren was quite familiar with this area all his life. When he just crossed over, he was in the Red Leaf Mountain.

The cloth strips on the tree trunks were all tied when he went out to explore the road. He spent the first half of the month groping on this mountain.

When the struggling hind legs of the rabbit in his hand gradually lost strength, Ren Pingsheng pushed aside the bushes in front of him.

The sun cleared through the clouds, and suddenly I saw the head of the creek when I turned around.

A familiar cabin.

There are traces of human activities around the cabin, and the vegetation has been cleared away - it was done by Ren Pingsheng when he first arrived.

Outside the wooden house there are bundles of mugwort that Ren brought from the earth a lifetime ago to prevent mosquito bites.

It was the time when summer and autumn intersected, and the mosquitoes were very powerful!

This wooden house used to be a hunting hut in the mountains, but when Ren traveled to this hut for the first time in his life, the thick dust and cobwebs inside showed that it had been abandoned for a long time.

Throwing the fat gray rabbit into the yard, Ren Pingsheng pushed open the simple door of the wooden house.

After not coming for more than two months, a layer of dust settled in the house again.

Inside were some unused pots and pans, machetes, daggers, and an iron rod that was 1.5 meters long and weighed 36 kilograms standing on the wall.

Of course, the most important reason why Ren Pingsheng wanted to come back was the most conspicuous blue Yamaha yz250f off-road motorcycle. It cost him nearly 80,000 yuan at the time, which accounted for one-fifth of his money at the time. deposit!

Unfortunately, it's not very practical.

Originally, Ren Pingsheng regarded this wooden house as a secret safe house for himself. If anything went wrong in Liujia Village, he could take Xiaowan and escape here.

Now, since I have planned to move to Qingcheng Town, it is already far away from here, and it will not be convenient to come here in the future.

Naturally, these things need to be packed away.

Soon, Ren Pingsheng packed these things and put them into his own transit space.

This small space suddenly became so full that there was no room to even scratch.

The cabin was empty. Ren Pingsheng took out a plastic box and went to the yard. When he opened the plastic box, there were spice jars inside.

He used a dagger to dispose of the rabbit's internal organs, then walked to the stream and washed it inside and out with the clear stream water.

"Wow~"

The stream was fast and cold.

Ren Pingsheng couldn't help but think of the scene more than two months ago when he just got the steel crossbow and hunted in this mountain forest.

His archery skills were also developed at that time, and he even practiced barbecuing to perfection.

After cleaning the rabbit, he lit a fire and put it on the barbecue grill. Drops of grease fell into the fire, and the flames made a "pop" sound.

Ren Pingsheng also took out his two guns.

Although the bullets are limited, you still need to be familiar with the gun. Otherwise, when it comes time to use it, if you forget to turn on the safety, it will be the end of the world.

After eating the rabbit, Ren Pingsheng was not in a hurry to go back.

Turn off the safety and take the 1911a1 and aim at a tree more than ten meters away.

"Snapped!"

The bark of the trees is flying and the birds are chirping.

"The recoil is not great, and firearms are easier to operate than crossbows."

Although he had never fired a gun before, after firing the first shot, Ren had his first impression of shooting.

I don't think it's difficult.

Ren Pingsheng then fired several shots at the tree, hitting the trunk without missing the target.

Changed to 56 and a half, and learned the standard shooting posture.

This gun was more accurate. The yellow-orange bullet shells fell to the ground. The sawdust exploded on the big tree where the two hugged each other more than ten meters away, and the bark flew away.

Fierce gunfire echoed in the mountains.

Ren Pingsheng tried to shoot farther away, or because he had already mastered bow and crossbow shooting before, when he touched the firearm, his accuracy was very good. At least for some still life shooting, he fired more than ten shots without missing the target. Case.

"It's a pity that there are too few bullets, otherwise it would be much better than a crossbow in terms of convenience, power, accuracy, and distance."

Ren Pingsheng felt a little pity.

He collected all the bullet casings scattered on the ground, maybe he could reload them later.

Looking at his watch, it was already past one o'clock. Ren Pingsheng put the 56 and a half into the transfer space, refilled the pistol magazine with bullets, turned on the safety, and put it on his waist.

Carrying a steel crossbow on his back and holding an electric baton, he returned to Liujia Village.

We were speechless all the way, and it was already past three o'clock when we got home.
