Strange talk live room
Chapter 331 Looking for a Well
It was windy and rainy, with lightning and thunder.
In the dilapidated ancient temple, rainwater trickled down through the holes in the roof, gathering into a stream on the dusty ground.
The smell of damp water was everywhere, and it couldn't be dispelled no matter how bright the campfire was.
There are a total of 7 people in the hall at this moment.
I, the butcher, the team of travel friends.
After the five people came in, the pig butcher didn't say anything and moved aside silently, as if he didn't want to interact with more people.
"I didn't expect to meet again." Team leader Chen Jingdong greeted me in surprise.
"Yeah, it's quite fate." I smiled and nodded.
All five of them were in dire straits. No matter how waterproof their jackets were, they could not withstand the heavy rain. They were all soaked, as if they had just been fished out of the water.
Apparently, there was a lot of running in the rain.
After a hurried greeting, they didn't bother to say more, they were all busy sorting themselves out.
I took off my wet coat, wrung out the water, put it on the wooden pole, and sat in a circle around the campfire, all shivering from the cold.
One of the men was injured and had a band of gauze wrapped around his ankle. The blood soaked out and was diluted by the rain.
"Chen Laosan, please bear with me."
Chen Jingdong carefully lifted off the gauze.
After being washed away by the heavy rain, the gauze stuck to the wound. When it was removed, it pulled at the flesh, which made it painful to look at.
The man named Chen Laosan turned pale, his lips trembled, and he kept breathing in cold air.
The gauze was finally removed, and Chen Laosan's wound had turned white from the rain. The injury was serious and the skin was torn.
The shape of the wound looked like it had been bitten by huge sharp teeth, and I immediately thought of a bear trap.
Also, that scream.
It turns out that the person who had the accident was actually from the ALICE Team.
Judging from their position at the time, they were not far in front of me, which meant that they were also heading west.
Isn't their goal to get to the top of the mountain?
My brows twitched slightly, and I showed a concerned expression.
"The injury was not serious. I didn't expect that there were really wild boars on this mountain, and someone even set up a bear trap. I almost got caught."
Chen Laosan glanced at me weakly and did not answer.
"The third child is a little unlucky." Chen Jingdong smiled bitterly, quickly sprayed his hands with disinfectant and wrapped them in clean gauze again.
The technique is quite skillful.
Then, he took out mineral water and medicine from the heavy mountaineering bag and handed them to Chen Laosan.
After Chen Laosan took the medicine, he took a long breath, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and moved closer to the fire.
I added some more wood blocks to the fire to make the flames burn bigger.
When you can't tell whether you are an enemy or a friend, it is necessary to be kind to others.
"Thank you for reminding me at that time. I didn't expect that it is really easy to get lost in this mountain. You, me, and that old man all got lost."
I pointed to the butcher.
The pig butcher had already taken out his own dry food and started eating it quietly, not paying any attention to the situation on our side.
"You're welcome, just call me Lao Chen." Chen Jingdong looked at the pig butcher and his eyes fell on the stick-like thing behind him, his eyes showing fear.
"Who is that old man?"
"He said he was a pig butcher, liked game, and went to the mountains to hunt."
Chen Jingdong frowned slightly: "Oh, was he the one who put the animal trap?"
I shook my head: "Then I don't know. How about you ask?"
Chen Jingdong, Chen Laosan, and another man made eye contact. The relationship between the three of them seemed unusual.
The couple leaned together to warm themselves by the fire, keeping a little distance from the three of them. They were obviously in the same team, but they didn't seem to be particularly familiar with each other.
After making eye contact, Chen Jingdong shook his head and lowered his voice and said: "Forget it, even if I ask now, he will definitely not admit it."
"It looks like it's going to rain for a long time, and it's not advisable to walk on mountain roads at night. We're going to spend the night here tonight."
He looked up at the leaky roof and sighed helplessly.
"We can only spend the night here? Can anyone live in this poor place?" The woman in the couple looked around the ruined temple with a grimace and complained.
"Miss Qiu, let's make do with it. It's not easy to live in such a ruined temple after such a heavy rain." Chen Jingdong replied.
"How did you become the team leader! If you hadn't insisted on going to the top of the mountain, we wouldn't have gotten lost and been trapped on the mountain."
"I just want to complete the prescribed route on time, but when I go hiking, I will encounter various emergencies. Miss Qiu, please be patient."
After Chen Jingdong finished speaking, he ignored her and stood up to get something from his hiking bag.
"Hui Yan, this was an accident. Who knew it would suddenly rain heavily." The woman's boyfriend put his arm around her shoulders and consoled her.
"Bai Jinhang, you have the nerve to say it, it's all your fault! I said I wanted to go to the beach, but you insisted on hiking. Not to mention suffering, you are still trapped in this barren mountain!"
The woman complained even more fiercely.
"Yes, yes, it's all my fault. I will definitely listen to you next time."
The boyfriend coaxed her patiently, and after a while, the woman finally calmed down.
Chen Jingdong took out some stainless steel pots and bowls, ingredients, etc.
Another man named Chen Laosi helped him, and the two of them worked skillfully and quickly.
But when I put the ingredients into the pot and prepared to cook, I realized that there was not enough water.
"Where's the water? I remember there were a few big buckets." Chen Jingdong frowned and asked his teammates.
Qiu Huiyan said nothing.
Bai Jinhang smiled sheepishly and said, "Sorry, Lao Chen, the rain was too heavy and I accidentally fell on the road."
"This is bad. Everyone is caught in the rain and needs to eat some hot food. But where can we get water in this barren mountain?"
Chen Jingdong frowned deeper.
"Brother, there are usually wells in temples. How about we go outside and look for them?" Chen Laosi suggested.
"Okay, Third Brother, just rest here and take care of your things. We'll go out and take a look."
"Brother, fourth brother, please be careful and leave early and come back early."
As they said that, they put on their jackets and hats, carried the empty pot and ran out in the rain.
The door of the main hall was not closed properly, and the wind and rain drifted in, bringing more chill to the dilapidated temple that was already not warm.
"Close the door quickly." Qiu Huiyan shuddered.
Bai Jinhang immediately ran over and closed the door tightly.
I took out my own dry food, roasted it on the fire, and ate and drank it with mineral water.
Qiu Huiyan was tired and hungry, so she couldn't help but lick her dry lips and asked her boyfriend Bai Jinhang to find something to eat for her.
The pig butcher had finished eating and was leaning against the big pillar with his eyes closed to meditate.
It's a coincidence.
Everyone who entered the ruined temple tonight seemed to realize that they would spend the night in the mountains, and they all prepared sufficient food and water.
The fire was crackling and burning, and everyone's face was dark and uncertain.
Not long after, there were rapid footsteps outside the door.
"Did they find water?" Qiu Huiyan shouted happily.
Bai Jinhang hurriedly opened the door, but there were two unfamiliar faces outside the door.
His scarred bald head was covered with rainwater, and his dark brown monk's robes were soaked and clinging to his body.
I felt a chill in my heart.
Why did they come in?
