Chapter 16: Overnight in the Mountains
As night falls, the Wild Boar Ridge shrouded in the night is obviously more terrifying than during the day. But for Mu Zhengfeng, who is camping here, he seems leisurely and contented, staring at the bubbling soup pot.
The stove that sets a soup pot is also a marching stove that I learned to dig when I was a soldier in my previous life. I slaughtered two black fish I caught before, and put them in the pot and braised them and stewed them.
The temporary wooden table next to it has already been placed with corn tortillas brought from home, which is also the staple food for tonight. And the complementary food naturally starts to stew black fish with aromas. This dinner is also rich.
Next to the open space of the dining table, a bonfire was burning, providing lighting for Mu Zhengfeng. Even if there are large wild animals, they will not approach this bonfire easily when they see it. Moreover, if animals are approaching, Mu Zhengfeng can detect it in advance.
In order to ensure that the nighttime rest is not taken away by wild beasts, Mu Zhengfeng still made several simple trigger alarms. Once these small traps are triggered, they will make noise, not only target wild beasts in the mountains, but also humans.
Who can guarantee that you won’t meet some sluts if you sleep alone in the mountains?
As for monsters and monsters, Mu Zhengfeng, who was a human being in two lifetimes, really doesn't believe it. As an adventurer in his previous life, Mu Zhengfeng even slept in some excavated ancient tombs. In his opinion, the so-called ghosts are more of self-imagined.
Looking at the little left in the pot, Mu Zhengfeng said with satisfaction: "The heat is almost the same, and the soup will be gone if it is boiled. The remaining soup is the real essence. With corn cakes, it will be enjoyable."
Taking off the soup pot for stewed fish, placing it on a simple wooden table, carrying the same simple wooden chair, Mu Zhengfeng began to enjoy the belated dinner alone.
Picking up a piece of black fish meat and swallowing it into his mouth, Mu Zhengfeng said with a look of enjoyment: "Not bad! The taste of this fish is authentic! Unfortunately, if you bring some sauerkraut and make a black fish fillet of sauerkraut, the taste should be better."
Mu Zhengfeng also began to evaluate the food he made himself. He was very satisfied with eating a bite of fish and pancake. On the other hand, the younger brothers and sisters at home who had supper at this time still seemed worried.
Even before leaving home, Mu Zhengfeng prepared a sumptuous dinner for his younger brother and sister, but the two little guys still felt that it was tasteless. After dinner, the younger sister Mu Xuan even said, "Second brother, you won't have any trouble, right?"
"No! When the eldest brother is back tomorrow at noon, we should go to bed early!"
"Yeah, but I can't sleep!"
"Lying down, you will fall asleep after lying for a long time. When you wake up and have breakfast, we will go to the bamboo forest to wait!"
For Mu Zhengyan, it is hard for him to imagine how he would support this family and take care of his only sister if he had no older brother. Therefore, he firmly believed that his elder brother would be safe.
Before entering the mountain, Mu Zhengfeng also knew that his younger brother and sister would definitely be worried. The problem is that, with the geographical location of Mujiazhai, even if he bought a mobile phone, the signal would probably not be too strong. Not to mention, bringing the mobile phone into deep mountains such as Wild Boar Ridge.
If your mobile phone is useless, you will naturally not be able to report safety. Maybe you have to wait a few more years and the domestic communication system will begin to be improved. Then bring your mobile phone into the mountains and call to report safety at any time. Maybe your younger brother and sister will feel more at ease when they stay at home.
Thinking of this, Mu Zhengfeng could only sigh helplessly: "They will learn to grow up by themselves!"
As the elder brother, you can teach and help, but as the elder brother and sister can only learn to adapt to some things. When they grow up, they will walk out of the mountains one after another, and the elder brother Mu Zhengfeng will not be by his side every day.
After returning from rebirth, he stayed in the deep mountains for the first time. Mu Zhengfeng seemed to be back in the past. Fortunately, he knew that in this life, if he wanted to indulge in the mountains and fields as in the previous life, he had to cultivate his younger brother and sister into talents first, so that he might be truly free.
"There are gains and losses. Life is actually very good now. If you have home, you can take some time occasionally and live a free and unrestrained life, and you will not become a lonely ghost who is in the mountains and fields like your previous life."
Only when he is alone can Mu Zhengfeng truly let go of everything. Outside the camp, the sounds and night that make people feel oozing cannot affect his mood at all. He even started working again under the bonfire after dinner.
If nothing unexpected happens, Mu Zhengfeng will enter the mountain many times in the future. In order to avoid living a life of wind and sleeping in the open, it is very necessary to repair this temporary camp located in Wild Boar Ridge.
Although you have entered the mountain, you can make a lot of things. But if you have time and ability, you can improve your accommodation conditions, why not? The wooden table is too small, so make a larger table.
If there are too few chairs, it doesn’t matter if you can make a few more. If possible, cut some bamboo and make a few recliners in the future. When you enter the mountain, you can lie down while blowing the mountain breeze. I believe that the taste must be very pleasant.
Seeing that it was getting late, Mu Zhengfeng, who was about to go to bed, did not forget to practice martial arts. Since his rebirth, he has hardly stopped practicing martial arts. Now that he is thin, he can still feel that his body is stronger and stronger than before.
While supplementing nutrition to younger siblings, Mu Zhengfeng will not treat himself badly. As the old saying goes, the body is the capital of revolution. No matter what happens in the future, the strength of one's own strength can sometimes play a big role.
Considering the limited conditions of the temporary camp, Mu Zhengfeng, who was sweating profusely after practicing, wiped his body with the towel he brought. He changed into clean and refreshing clothes, filled some firewood into the campfire before he got into the tent.
Covering a homemade sleeping bag, even if you sleep less comfortable than the bed at home, Mu Zhengfeng felt that the conditions were already very good compared to sleeping on the ground. As for the two unsealed sides of the wooden house, Mu Zhengfeng also set up railings and warning devices.
Of course, these traps can only guard against wild animals and ordinary people, and are naturally of little use for professionals who are really good at jungle combat and night attacks. The question is, how can you encounter such a person in the deep mountains of peaceful times?
When Mu Zhengfeng woke up at the sound of insects and birds coming from his ears, he got out of the tent and looked at the valley where the sky was still dark, still shrouded in a fog. He found that it was only less than five o'clock at this time.
Just thinking of promising his younger brothers and sisters to go back to have dinner with them before lunch, Mu Zhengfeng began to get up and go to the open space next to the wooden house to start morning exercises. Nearly an hour later, Mu Zhengfeng, who was sweating again, began to wash.
From the burning bonfire, Mu Zhengfeng found charcoal with sparks, rekindled the fire, and started making his own breakfast. Compared to the hearty dinner last night, the breakfast seemed relatively shabby.
I made the fish soup that I had not finished eating last night, with the noodles I brought with me, and the simple fish soup noodles were mixed with the noodles. After breakfast, I used the leftover water to pour the marching stove and the bonfire.
Confirm that Mars has been extinguished. Looking at the gradually brightening sky and the thick fog that slowly dissipated, Mu Zhengfeng began to go to the swamp to collect the turtle hooks he put down last night. If he returned empty-handed, Mu Zhengfeng would feel very embarrassed!
Fortunately, what excited Mu Zhengfeng was that when he received the fourth hook, a three-pound turtle was successfully dragged out of the water. Looking at the vigorous turtle, Mu Zhengfeng weighed it and smiled and said, "One thousand yuan is received!"
According to the price given by Liu Yaoyang, the price of turtles with a total of more than three pounds is about 300 per pound. This turtle is not considered bragging for 1,000 yuan. For many people in the mountains, this may be their income for a month or more.
The turtles that were caught one after another made Mu Zhengfeng smile. He knew very well that this Nilonggou did not disappoint him. With such a Feng Shui treasure land, I think it would be guaranteed to invest in living appliances for the bamboo house!
