Chapter 3292 The old man's words
This village is obviously built on water. There are fields on both sides of the creek, and it is obvious that it relies on this creek to irrigate crops.
Yu Fei even saw people carrying water home in buckets. Their drinking water should come from this stream. Now that the stream is about to dry up, it is definitely a matter of concern for them. After all, once the stream dries up, their crops will be destroyed.
Everyone may die from drought, and everyone will have huge survival problems due to lack of water.
There were villagers digging water storage pits everywhere on both sides of the stream. To be honest, these people's water storage pits were all dug. After starting to store water, Yu Fei knew that not a drop of water would flow to his cooperative.
Yu Fei wanted to persuade these villagers to give the small animals downstream a way to survive, but after thinking about it, he finally did not say anything because he knew that it would be too pretentious for him to say so. For these people, the first priority is to ensure their survival.
You advise them not to use water themselves. It is simply unrealistic to leave water to those small animals downstream.
"Let's keep walking!"
Yu Fei didn't say much, and planned to pass through the village with Ding Taotao and continue upstream.
"Hey! What are you doing, young man? If you go further in, no one will live in the mountains."
Unexpectedly, before Yu Fei walked over, an old man who was digging a hole raised his head and saw him and Ding Taotao, and asked.
"We are downstream people and we also need water. Seeing that the stream is about to dry up, we plan to follow the stream upstream to see what is going on. If this continues, we will have no water in the future."
Yu Fei explained his purpose of coming. His main purpose of coming here was to find the reason why the stream was about to dry up. His other purpose was to take Ding Taotao on a sightseeing tour.
"You're a very brave young man. Do you know where you'll end up if you go further inside? That's a virgin forest, full of poisonous insects and beasts. The old hunters in the past still dared to go in. No one in our village dared to go in for many years.
We have entered a deep mountain, be careful if you go in or get out!"
The old man kindly advised Yu Fei that after all, the virgin forest would be completely cut off from the outside world. There would be no signal for mobile phones, and it would be very difficult to find edible food. Of course, the most important thing is that it is easy to get lost. If Yu Fei
It would be okay if they kept following the stream, but once they left the stream, they would most likely never be able to get out of the mountains.
"I'll just go in along the creek and take a look. I won't run around. If I encounter any danger, I'll run back quickly. Don't worry, uncle!"
Yu Fei explained to the old man, and he knew that the old man had good intentions, but it was a pity that his explanation sounded weak to the old man.
Because when you are really in danger, in my opinion, ordinary people have no possibility of escaping. If you encounter a pack of wolves or a blind bear, you will basically become dinner for these beasts at the top of the food chain.
"Young man, a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers! You really don't know how dangerous this mountain is. My grandfather was eaten by a wolf, and my father was bitten by a poisonous snake. He didn't even have time to walk out. He died on the spot a hundred meters away."
, I advise you not to be young and frivolous and go back quickly."
The old man continued to persuade Yu Fei that in his opinion there were too many dangers in the mountains. Yu Fei and Ding Taotao looked a bit like children in the city. After all, their clothes were much more fashionable than those in their village.
, so I don’t think it’s possible for Yu Fei to come out alive after walking in.
"If it's okay, I'll just take a walk. If I feel unsafe, we'll be back soon."
Yu Fei couldn't explain to this old man how strong he was, so he gave a perfunctory answer and hurriedly left with Ding Taotao.
Avoid being entangled by this old man's enthusiasm.
Seeing that Yu Fei and Ding Taotao refused to listen to persuasion, the old man shook his head helplessly and sighed. In his opinion, such young people would not be able to listen to what the older generation said if they did not endure setbacks. The so-called good words are hard to persuade the damned ghosts.
Since Yu was seeking death, he wouldn't say much more.
The other villagers looked at Yu Fei and Ding Taotao and said nothing more. After all, the old man had already persuaded them, and they did not think that what they said could be more convincing than the old man. After all, the two words the old man cited
Examples, all from his close relatives, still failed to persuade Yu Fei and Ding Haotao, and no one else had a better example to give Yu Fei and Ding Taotao.
It was Ding Taotao's beauty that made many male villagers secretly sigh. It's a pity that such a beauty would die in the mountains in vain. If she could be their daughter-in-law, they would be extremely happy. It's a pity that they only dare to think about it in their hearts. No one
Dare to speak out.
Yu Fei and Ding Taotao continued along the stream. After passing the village, it seemed that there was a little more water in the stream. It was obvious that many of the streams had been intercepted by the villagers after passing through the village, so they were so small.
But the situation doesn't look very optimistic now. The water is at most enough for the villagers to use. After they dig the water storage pit, not a drop will be left and cannot flow through the village.
But the fact is as the uncle said. After passing the village and continuing along the stream, you can see fewer and fewer traces of human activities. Before, you could still see a lot of domestic garbage on both sides of the stream, but if you go further
It took a long time to see one less and less.
"Chuanwen, do you see anything?"
Ding Taotao kept looking around. The sparse crowds made her feel increasingly insecure. There were dense forests and dense grass everywhere, making people feel as if wild beasts could rush out at any time.
"I feel that the geological conditions here have not changed much. Upstream of the creek, we only encountered one village. This village has no ability to change the geological conditions here. Further inside is the virgin forest. Logically speaking, the geology
The conditions have not changed, and the mountain spring water should not dry up, and we have not encountered a severe drought recently, so it is really strange that the stream flow has decreased."
Yu Fei explained what he had analyzed. Although there was no result, the analysis process made sense. After all, the existence of mountain springs would not change much as long as the geological conditions were stable.
"I think so too. There must be some unexpected reason for the rest of us, which caused the sudden decrease in the mountain spring water. As long as we follow the stream, we will definitely be able to find the problem!"
Ding Taotao also nodded. What she thought was similar to Yu Fei's. Although neither of them found the reason, they both believed that they would be able to find the reason as long as they walked along the stream.
Although Ding Taotao was a little scared in his heart, he felt a lot safer when he saw Yu Fei walking in front of him. After all, Yu Fei's force value is really strong, and he can even beat Blind Bear in a duel. In this mountain,
There is probably no beast more powerful than a blind bear.
However, it is not that no one has lived in this deep mountain. During the war years ago, it was obvious that there were people living here. Hidden in the deep mountains, they could avoid bandits and live in peace. Later, the society became stable and many people moved away.
As they were walking along the stream, they still found some cave dwellings that had been excavated manually but were about to collapse, as well as some collapsed ancient buildings. They were now mostly overgrown with weeds, and you couldn't even tell if you didn't look carefully.
It is still a place where people have lived.
However, due to the passage of time, the traces left behind
There were not many traces left, and it was not of much help to them, so they did not stop, they just took a look and left in a hurry.
"Taotao, are you hungry? If so, let's stop and eat something before we leave?"
As Yu Fei was walking, he suddenly remembered that he had a lot of physical strength and would hardly feel tired while walking like this. But Ding Taotao was different, so he turned around hurriedly and asked.
"I'm not hungry, I'm just a little tired. Let's take a short rest!"
Hearing Yu Fei's concern, Ding Taotao felt very warm in her heart. To be honest, she was gritting her teeth and persisting. Since Yu Fei had spoken, she would stop and rest for a while. The reason why she didn't take the initiative to speak before was because she was afraid of being in Yun Fei's heart.
It leaves a pretentious impression.
After the two of them stopped, Yu Fei opened the backpack on his back, which contained the food and water brought by Ding Taotao. Although Ding Taotao said she was not hungry, it was good to ask her to add that it felt lighter to eat in the stomach than to carry it on the body.
Some.
The food prepared by Ding Taotao was delicious. They ate bread with juice and the two of them felt better. The beautiful scenery made them feel as if it belonged to them both.
After Ding Taotao stopped, she took off her shoes and gently kneaded them with her hands. Her small feet rarely walked for such long distances. He already felt that his feet were starting to ache, especially when the soles of his feet were constantly stepped on.
The stones in the river are beginning to hurt, and rubbing them can relieve some of the pain.
"I see you're not doing it well, and you don't have much strength in your hands. How about I help you rub it?"
Yu Fei saw Ding Taotao's action, and after thinking about it, he planned to take the initiative to help pinch the feet. In fact, it was a laborious task. If the strength was too small, pinching would not have much effect.
"That's so embarrassing, I'd better do it myself!"
Ding Taotao was naturally embarrassed to ask Yu Fei to knead his feet. On the one hand, it felt like Yu Fei's status was low, and on the other hand, for girls, it always felt too shy to let a man knead their feet.
Already.
"It's okay. Wash your feet every day. They don't stink anyway."
Yu Fei didn't think too much and sat directly on the stone in front of Ding Taotao. Without Ding Taotao's consent, he picked up one of her feet with two hands and placed it on his knees, using his two thumbs to help.
Start kneading.
The tactile nerves in the soles of the feet are relatively developed. It feels better if you touch them by yourself, but it will feel particularly itchy when others touch them. Ding Taotao instantly tensed up her muscles and gritted her teeth tightly to prevent herself from subconsciously pulling her feet back or
Make a sound.
Yu Fei was very attentive when doing things, staring at Ding Taotao's small feet, and just focusing on massaging some fixed acupuncture points. Massaging these acupoints can relax the body and eliminate fatigue.
Ding Taotao tried her best not to make a sound, because she felt too comfortable and too uncomfortable. Once the acupuncture points and nerves on the soles of her feet were touched, people would have strange reactions.
But Ding Taotao also felt very happy in her heart, because she knew that not many men were willing to help women pinch their feet. Such good men were rare, and she was one of them right in front of her.
Fortunately, Ding Taotao's feet didn't stink at all, so Yu Fei didn't feel any discomfort.
But at this moment, neither of them noticed that in the cracks in the rocks behind Ding Taotao, a colorful snake slowly moved towards her along the cracks in the rocks.
